A boy loved reading and hearing fables of 'Heroes' to the point of idealizing them meets the harsh reality of the unfair world.
The same boy was bestowed the title of 'Villain' for taking vengeance for his loved ones and protecting those others deemed beyond saving...
Out of his ventures, he got blessed by the Heavens with a second chance at life, but not without its cost...
In his second life, he faced the moral dilemma of whether to defy fate and become a hero, fall deeper into the abyss and become a true villain, or just ignore everything and isolate himself from the world.
This is the story of a boy who was born in a cultivation world where might is right, strength reigns supreme, and he was deigned weak.
Yet the world had no place for the weak, be it his family, his fellow cultivators, commoners, powerful elites...
Against all odds, the boy reigned supreme, only to fall at the ploy of fate...
He returns to the past, with the item he was being hunted for in the first place.
Now, what shall his destiny be?
This story is anything but a cliché, where a kid fights the world's strongest and saves the world from doom. No, he might as well be the one bringing the world to its doom.

The Villain Returns!

"Ojus. Call me Ojus" the demon bird named Ojus said as it unfurled its wings and lowered itself to allow them to climb its back for the journey to the demon beast's base.

Their journey was extremely fast as Ojus dived from the tree after Raon and Lia were sitting firmly on its back without having any ulterior motives like attacking it or anything.

Ojus flew through the air, with the wind accelerating its speed by countering the pressure on it from all directions, reducing obstacles like dust or the wind itself.

'Attacking it is useless' Raon thought as he remembered the wide gap between Stage 4 and Stage 5 demon beasts and even the humans who reached this stage.

Stage 5 allowed even the territorial demon beasts and even humans to fly in the air freely, but it wasn't that easy, as the bird demon beasts would obviously have it easier and would be faster since it was their turf.
