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.

The SSS Ranked Villain's Return

"Here you are." Valthor passed him a note detailing all the information he had to know regarding the Obscura.

Sure, this was all a part of the plan, but how exactly were they supposed to win? The Obscura had Delta, and she alone would be enough to deal with the entire Eternal Night organization.

But we're supposed to attack her now? Yeah... fuck no. Neraxis immediately dismissed the idea.

"Hey, my memory is a bit foggy, so could you tell me something?" Neraxis said, getting Valthor's attention. "What did I do exactly to make all of my classmates so angry?"

"Pfft..." Valthor held back a laugh. "You didn't do anything, Neraxis. They just simply couldn't accept you when you joined the Eternal Night. That's all."

He didn't expect to get a straight-up answer, but he wanted at least a tinge of honesty.
