Without warning, the Mount Hua Cult master slaughters the entire squad. As Seol-Hwi lies dying, lamenting years of service to the cult with nothing to show for it, he is suddenly faced with a video game prompt, asking if he would like to start again. Given the opportunity to start over and make different choices, Seol-Hwi vows to survive and become stronger so he can rise to the top of the Demon Cult.

A solid Murim story with great pacing
I must admit that this Manhwa truly stands out from the crowd. In the world of Murim Manhwas, it's a common trope to have an overpowered main character, and while that can be enjoyable, it often becomes repetitive. However, this particular Manhwa offers a refreshing change of pace. The protagonist may have a system, but he still faces real challenges and struggles, especially in dealing with the people around him. This aspect of the story adds depth and makes it all the more enjoyable.

What sets this Manhwa apart is its exceptional pacing. It manages to keep readers engaged even when the main character isn't in a life-threatening situation. This is a testament to the story's ability to maintain tension and intrigue throughout.

In my review, I would rate it 8/10. It's a solid piece of work, but it doesn't receive the same level of attention as some other Manhwas. This might be attributed to the fact that the characters, while not particularly unique in terms of design and art (though the art itself is exceptional), do exhibit realistic personalities. This can be seen as both a strength and a weakness of the story.

One of the strengths of this Manhwa is the way it engages the reader's imagination. It often prompts you to think about what could happen next, much like the intense battles in "Death Note" between L and Kira. This level of engagement keeps the reader invested in the storyline.

The system in the story is also worthy of note. It's portrayed in great detail, and it leads the main character into some incredibly challenging and unpredictable situations. What makes this system unique is the fact that it's not a straightforward help; it often places the main character in more danger than it helps him avoid. It's almost as if the system is using him. This aspect sets it apart from most other systems in similar stories, which typically act as a safety net for the main character. In this case, you can't fully trust what the system provides, highlighting the protagonist's vulnerability and the struggle of an ordinary person with average intelligence trying to become stronger.

As for the romance aspect, it may come across as somewhat formulaic, as is often the case in Manhwas. It seems to be included for the sake of it, but it's intriguing how the main character gains perks through love, adding another layer of complexity to the system's role in the story.

Overall, while none of the characters may stand out significantly, the story excels in its revenge-driven narrative, even though there may be parts that some readers find less appealing. In conclusion, this Manhwa offers a unique and compelling take on the typical Murim Manhwa formula, making it a must-read for fans of the genre.
