Stripped of everything in a merciless world, he once stood as a legendary hero—climbing from obscurity to unparalleled greatness, only to face relentless betrayal from those he'd sworn to protect. Humanity had become unworthy of his sacrifice. Surrounded by corpses of demons and angels beneath a crimson sky, all hope extinguished, he accepted the bitter truth: the world he'd saved didn't deserve salvation. Then came a second chance—a gift wrapped in destiny. This time, he wouldn't be the hero civilization needed. He would become the antihero the world demanded. Salvation through ruthlessness. Protection through sin. If saving an elf demanded a hundred human lives, so be it. If preserving half-demons required poisoning the masses, he'd do it without hesitation. He would safeguard those precious to him and condemn all else to oblivion. Divine beings themselves couldn't stand against his resolve. At the Hero Academy, he discovered something extraordinary: the ability to commune with the greatest heroes of ages past. Their power, their wisdom, their very essence—now bound to his will. With ancient strength coursing through him and a singular obsession to reshape fate, he would forge a new world order where loyalty was the only law that mattered. Heaven and hell would tremble before his ascension.
