Summary
A brief description of the manga The Dark Swordsman Returns:
On a battlefield at the brink of annihilation, unknown soldier Gray Lee had his chest pierced through—and he awaited death.
Only humanity’s strongest heroes—the Sword Saint, the Divine Archer, the Great Sage, and the Ultimate Shield—stood a chance against the “Liquidator,” a deadly enemy capable of burning down an entire continent in a single day.
Yet even those heroes fell, one by one, until all hope was lost…
…At least, that’s what it should’ve been.
“I got pierced through the heart, but I’m still alive?”
Gray did not die. Instead, he was guided by Chronos, the Master of Time. He was bestowed an unknown power, and with it he delivered a powerful blow to the Liquidator, shaking the threads of fate itself.
But just as a chance of victory appeared, another beam of light struck, Gray’s body reducing to nothing…
…and Chronos’s voice thundered, “I shall send you to the past. Save this world.”
The next thing Gray knew, he woke up in his hometown, which should long have been destroyed. It was the place he started his life of a loser—and was now the stage for his second chance.
“This time, I will survive!”
With the power to transcend time and his memories of the future, Gray sets out to become a warrior even stronger than the heroes.

Why do they always look like that kek
This is a series that’s worth about 3.5 stars only. Maybe 3.9 at best.
If you’ve read it and disagree, damn.
It’s pretty good but it feels like the mc is a little indecisive and a vessel for plot than an actual character. Sure he was not special in his past life but that doesn’t feel intentional but more covering up for the author’s mistakes
ch 17. Now marinate for a year~
Author of that drawning such a lazy boy
its pretty good, yes its generic but it also has patches on certain things which some readers hate 8.3/10
Why does it take so long for new chapters to appear ???
I feel like the author has a vision about what he wants to make the ending and development to be. He/she also has a decent base. But maybe he doesn’t know how to properly reach that development? He/she doesn’t know how to portray MC’s emotion at the time? But this is insanely good beginning. Turn your brain off for a bit, and turn it on after the 2nd ch. Keep up the good work!



































the premise degrades rapidly. basically the mc and his allies could do a thousand things to prevent the future from happening, yet they don’t, and the reason is mostly plot.
at some point you get revealed that you can’t arrest criminals in the academy because the academy doesn’t do discrimination. and that policy was decided by a student… because that student is strong. NOT because connections pressuring the headmaster. just because he is strong.
well that’s just one example of the degradation and plottification of the premise. the choices of the characters hence stop making any sense.
i figure, this is probably why the rating is kinda low, because there’s not something utterly wrong here, it’s just that it feels nonsensical and unreasonable. ret4rded even,
well, hope you can now make an informed decision about this manwha!
