Xeno was a boy taken in by the Arclights, the empire’s top swordsmanship clan. He sacrificed his life for the family, earning endless military glory as a Sword Saint—only to be betrayed and killed by Atlas, the family head he swore absolute loyalty to.
But after dying in despair, Xeno wakes up reincarnated as a prodigy of the empire’s greatest magic family, the Arclights’ biggest rivals. To gain the power to crush Atlas, he starts his climb to the top at the meritocratic Royal Academy, showing off his overwhelming skills in both swordsmanship and magic!
hmm.. 1st?
looks okay from the cover,,,,
read first 3 chapters, so far this is just painful to read. this is the exact same story as at least five other manhwa with essentially no originality so far.
plot is meh at best, basic regression revenge. character decisions have made no sense whatsoever, all of them stupid at best. author’s decisions for how characters act is what it boils down to, and the author is really bad at it.
i might be overly critical but this is like the 3rd or 4th time i’ve read this exact same story. also, mc looks like a frog imo, but thats not really an issue.
frankly, if you’ve never read one with this kind of plot before, i’d advise trying it but if not i really wouldn’t advise reading past the 1st chapter to check if you might enjoy it.
