The world’s largest VRMMO, Conviction, was almost like a second world for humanity. It had integrated itself into the real world’s economy, with both corporations and individuals seeking their fortunes through the game.

In this game, Nie Yan prided himself in his Level 180 Thief. He could barely be considered among the top experts in the game. Though, that was the only thing he could take pride in. He was penniless and unable to advance in life; a situation he was forced into by the enemy of his father. If it weren’t for the little money he made by selling off items in Conviction, he would’ve barely been able to eat. In the end, he chose to settle his matters once and for all. He assassinated his father’s enemy. He lay dying shortly after being shot in the pursuit.

However, that wasn’t the end of his story. Instead, he awoke moments later to find that he had reincarnated into his past-self. Armed with his experience and knowledge of future events, he sets out to live his life anew.

The Arcane Mage cast an Arcanum Shield on himself, the strongest shield available to an Arcane Mage. While protected by the Arcanum Shield, one could ignore control magic and it should hold for a few seconds, giving him time to attempt a rescue.


However, ideals are beautiful, but reality is cruel.


Nie Yan's Zenard's Sword came crashing down, shattering the Arcanum Shield into pieces, and the Arcane Mage's health plummeted instantly.


Even as he was one-shotted, the Arcane Mage still wore a face of disbelief.


In all his past combat experiences, he had never encountered such a thing. A Great Thief actually managed to one-shot him, even when he was protected by an Arcanum Shield. The Mad Rogue Nirvana Flame was simply too inhuman.


His pupils gradually dilated, and although he was extremely reluctant, in the end, he had no choice but to accept his fate.
