Neraxis saved the people and wiped out the monsters, but instead of cheers, he faced silence and a glowing blue text:

[Task Failed Successfully!]

[Rating Generated: SSS-Rank]

"The hell does that even mean?" he muttered, finding the situation a bit strange.

Before he could process, the so-called heroes—who had hidden while he fought—emerged. He waited for gratitude, only to feel a dagger pierce his back.

The only girl he loved stood behind him.

She betrayed him.

The crowd and heroes? They were staring at him with disdain and contempt.

"You..." he groaned as a spear and sword headed for him, ending his life.  
 
But instead of dying, he was sent back to the past—specifically, to the first day of the academy, year 2367, 8 years before his death.  

However, many things had changed. One of the most significant was the sudden appearance of a Tower, a mysterious structure that had appeared across all the continents, granting power to those brave enough to contest its challenges.

"Not again... With this chance I will end you all" Neraxis vowed to himself, embarking on his path of revenge, while also trying to give his life new meaning.

*****
100 Golden tickets = 1 Extra Chapter | Limit = 4 Per Week (400 Golden Tickets)
200 Power Stones = 1 Extra Chapter | Limit = 3 Per Week (600 Power Stones)

The way this would work is, every single Monday, I would release the extra chapters in accordance with the goals reached. EVERY WEBNOVEL MONDAY RESET. (0:00 GMT+8)

If all goals are broken each week, you will have a 7-chapter mass release every single Monday.

If the weekly mass release goals are broken continuously, I will adjust the goals accordingly. If the book becomes very popular, I might even increase the limit.

The SSS Ranked Villain's Return

"You..." Aurelia's shocked voice resounded from beside him, and upon turning around, he saw that the rest of the team had similar reactions.

But since they hadn't seen what happened, he would rather just keep it between the two of them.

Sending a wink toward Aurelia, Neraxis spoke, "Seems like it healed up just fine, no need to worry."

Each of their brows furrowed, but they were already used to his avoiding personality, so they put it aside. Instead, it was about time they got out.

"I don't care anymore..." Aella said before turning to the side, specifically to where the blue liquid-like mass began forming. "Is that the exit?"

Noticing the hesitant tone of hope, he affirmed, "Yeah, it's over now."

Immediately, everyone let out the deep breaths they'd been holding in ever since the start of the boss battle, with Aurelia even falling to her knees.

Kind Reception
