Carlos Valois thought dying once was enough—until he woke up as a 10-year-old in the world of "The Dark Era," a game he'd mastered in his previous life.

Born as the last heir of a fallen noble house, Carlos discovers he's destined for a tragic fate: in six years, he'll be manipulated into joining the dark forces and killed by his own childhood friend. But this time, he has the ultimate cheat code—memories of the future.

While other kids play with toys, Carlos hunts for divine legacies. Using his game knowledge, he performs an ancient ritual and steals a Demigod Mark from the thousand-year Sacred Oak—a power that should have remained hidden for decades.

At 15, Carlos awakens as a Death Herald with broken stats that shouldn't be possible. Most Death Heralds are fragile summoners hiding behind weak skeletons. But Carlos combines his necromancy with stolen divine abilities, creating a hybrid build that turns him into an unstoppable force.

[Skeleton Warrior has successfully evolved into Purple Thornblade Skeleton Guard!]
[Purple Thornblade Skeleton Guard has activated Bond: Glory of the Purple Thornblades!]
[Twelve Purple Thornblade Guards have formed an Undead Armored Knight Legion!]
.....
His skeleton warriors aren't cannon fodder—they're elite undead legions enhanced beyond normal limits through secret evolution paths that took thousands of players years to discover.

Every "coincidental" encounter is actually Carlos farming legendary opportunities. While his sister thinks he's just a lucky genius, Carlos systematically raids every hidden treasure, secret technique, and forgotten legacy he remembers from the game. Ancient bloodlines, divine artifacts, mystical cultivation methods—if it exists, he's taking it.

With his infinitely evolving undead legion, Carlos set out on a path to rewrite destiny and become the supreme Death Herald legend.

In the arena, Carlos flew like a shot past maze walls until he hit a crimson gate up ahead.

The gate wasn't huge, only about 10 feet tall, with "#1" carved into it.

In front of Crimson Gate #1 sprawled a tiger-shaped dark mist monster.

Its massive body, just lying there, completely blocked the entire crimson gate!

Black-red fur, eyes like dinner plates, and flames occasionally shot from its thick nostrils.

This was the final guardian of the Crimson Maze—the Fallen Flame Tiger!

Spirituality 15, Strength 7, Constitution 6, Speed 6.

Among low-tier monsters, an absolute powerhouse with the title of "little beast king."

"Fallen Flame Tigers are rare as hen's teeth.

The organizers really pulled out all the stops for this competition."

Carlos hovered in mid-air, checking out the Fallen Flame Tiger chained with thick black links in front of the crimson gate.

Perfect Timing
