"This… this is before the Void Break?"Von's breath caught in his throat. He remembered dying—pierced through the heart, the world collapsing around him.
"Did I really… reincarnate?"
He jumped out of bed and rushed to the window.The morning light was warm, soft.Children ran freely in the streets, laughter echoing through the alleyways.Vendors called out their wares.The breeze carried the scent of fresh bread and blossoms.
Everything felt… normal. Peaceful. Just like before.
But he knew what was coming.
In the year 2025, just a short time from now, everything would change.Dark portals would rip open across the skies.Demons from another dimension would flood into Nethoria.Cities would burn.Humanity would fall.
That event—the Void Break—marked the beginning of the end.
In his past life, when hope was all but extinguished, the Awakeners emerged.Ordinary people who, touched by fate and divine will, unlocked supernatural powers.They became humanity's last stand, fighting back the demonic horde.Their strength came not only from within—but from the Archangels who chose to intervene.
Von had been one of the strongest among them.He gave everything.They all did.
But in the end… they still lost.The world was consumed.
Yet now—he had been given a second chance.A life before the fall. Before the bloodshed. Before the pain.
And this time—Von clenched his fists. His eyes sharpened with new purpose.
"This time, I'll save them. I'll save Nethoria."

TThe First Reincarnation
"Fuck! Where did I go wrong!?"Von's scream tore through the burning wind. He fell to his knees, blood and ash clinging to his face.
Despite everything—despite knowing the future, gathering allies, planning every move—he still lost.
Everyone he trusted, everyone who followed him, was dead.Again, he was the last one standing. The only one left to witness the end.
"You!"His voice cracked as he stared at the woman in the demonic mask."Who the hell are you!?"
The woman didn't answer.She never did.
Instead, a familiar dark spear tore through his chest—just like before.
Von died.

The Second Reincarnation
"This can't be real… I tried."His voice trembled. "I tried to stop it. Every step. Every death. Every moment that led to this…"
But it still happened.
The sky bled void. The screams of the dying filled the air.
Von died. Again.

The Third Reincarnation
"Why!?"His rage echoed across the shattered battlefield."Why do you always appear here? Why are you so strong!? What are you!?"
The woman stood silently in the eye of chaos.Same mask. Same aura. Same power.
She raised her hand.
And Von's body fell, lifeless, before her feet.

The Fifth. The Sixth. The Seventh…
Each life ended the same.With loss. With failure. With death.
The 12th.The 21st.The 38th.The 57th.The 76th.The 89th.The 94th.The 98th.
Each time he reincarnated, he changed the approach—trained harder, united different allies, tried different timelines, sacrifices, choices.It never mattered.
In every life, she appeared.And in every life, he died.
The 99th Turn
He wakes again.
This time, his body doesn't shake.His breath doesn't tremble.
His eyes open—clear, focused, unflinching.
This time he woke up a little later than the last reincarnations. It's 2025. Just before the Void Break.
