The path ahead is ruthless, filled with betrayal, forbidden secrets, and enemies lurking in the shadows.

But in a world where only the strong survive, will his obsession lead him to salvation… or ruin?

Death should have been the end. Instead, it was just the beginning. When street-smart Elijah dies, he expects oblivion. What he gets is a second chance - awakening in the body of Dante Valac, youngest son of one of the Underworld's 72 Noble Houses. But merging two souls isn't as simple as switching bodies, and Dante's memories come with obligations, enemies, and dangerous political games. Now he must navigate devil society's treacherous waters with a unique advantage - the cunning of a survivor combined with the education of nobility. Every conversation is a chess match, every relationship a calculated risk. His shadow manipulation abilities are impressive, but his greatest weapon might be the perspective his dual nature provides. Between maintaining his cover, mastering his powers, and unraveling the complex web of alliances and betrayals surrounding House Valac, Dante can't afford mistakes. Especially when brilliant heiress Latia Astaroth starts asking dangerous questions, and his mysterious maid Ariel seems to be more than she appears. In a world where power and politics intertwine, Dante's greatest deception might be convincing everyone he's still the devil they expect him to be. But then again, the best lies contain elements of truth.

Rin, a skilled warrior at the bustling White Flower Palace, guards two dangerous secrets that could unravel everything. First, he possesses forbidden knowledge of the world around him, a world strikingly similar to the events of a novel he once read—The Golden Girl's Rise. This eerie familiarity guides him as he navigates life far from the grandeur of the Hoshimi Empire’s Imperial Palace, where he hides his true identity. The second, far more perilous secret, is that Rin is the estranged brother of the Crown Prince, a central figure in the novel’s fateful tale. Torn between his past and present, Rin's role in the unfolding story threatens to expose him. When circumstances draw him into the very chaos foretold by the novel, Rin must confront his identity as a prince and grapple with the destiny that binds him. But can he rewrite the fate laid out in The Golden Girl's Rise? Or will the events of the past repeat themselves, forever changing the lives of those he holds dear?

Global changes have occurred, the world has turned into a game, and strange monsters are raging all over the world. To become stronger and to resist disasters. Everyone is changing classes and moving up their ranks like crazy. Some people become wizards in their first transformation, while others become professional thunder warriors in their second transformation. But Ling Zhan did the opposite. First, he chose a non-professional class and added the blue bar to all attribute points. “It's crazy. I don't have a class. All I have are low-level skills before I change classes. How can I fight in the later stages? What's the use of the blue bars? It can't increase combat effectiveness. It's really funny...” However, when the battle occurs, Level 3 Thunder Warrior: “I'm shocked, non-professionals are so strong?” A certain third-level Elf Queen: “Infinite blue bars, invincible in one-on-one combat, No. 1 in team battles, how can we fight like this?”
