Following the death of the emperor, the Astanian Empire plunged into chaos. His two sons both aiming for the throne caused a civil war that divided the empire. 


In the midst of this conflict, Alaric was forced into conscription. He later joined the crown prince’s army as a company commander. 


He led his 100-man army into battle, fiercely fighting with the hope of a better future. Unfortunately, he was just too weak to cause a ripple on the battlefield. 


A single arrow to the head shattered his hopes and he died without even a proper burial. 


Just when he thought that everything was over, he found himself back to his younger self with his memories intact.


Armed with his knowledge of the future and a system that awakened his dormant powers, Alaric began his journey to overcome his fated demise.

Half a day after the main army heard the explosion, a warrior came to give Alaric an urgent report.

"Your Highness, there is news from the ten-man scouting team!"

Alaric's expression darkened. "What? Where are the survivors?"

He didn't care about the other members, but he also sent Aldrin with them.

"They are being treated by our healers at the moment. Would you like me to bring you there?"

Alaric took a deep breath and nodded. "Bring me to see them."

Alaric followed the warrior to where the auxiliary unit was located. The healers of the army are in this unit and they were tactically placed somewhere in the rear of the formation.
