Condemned by the world as the greatest villain in history, Veyron Blackvale dies surrounded by the corpses of those who betrayed him—heroes, family, and loved ones alike. Labeled evil for committing atrocities, he alone is denied the hypocrisy of “justice” that shields so-called protagonists who massacre in the name of righteousness.
In his final moments, Veyron unleashes his last power, slaughtering the very people who stood atop his corpse and prepared to rewrite history in their favor. Villain and heroes perish together, and the truth is buried with them.
But death is not the end.
As darkness consumes him, an ancient force answers his hatred and regret—the Fate Devourer System. Time bends. Causality shatters.
Veyron regresses to the past.
Reborn before his downfall, armed with memories of betrayal and the authority to devour fate itself, he swears vengeance—not only against those who killed him, but against the world that branded him evil while worshipping monsters in heroic disguises.
This time, he will not seek redemption.
This time, he will not hesitate.
He will erase their futures, crush their destinies, and rewrite history with blood.
Because if the world insists on calling him a villain—
He will become one worthy of their fear.

Veyron snapped out of his thoughts and finally voiced the question that had been lingering in his mind.


"System," he said calmly, "how exactly will you help me obtain Fate Points? And how much do I currently possess?"


[The Host may issue the command 'Status' to view current attributes, skills, and fate value.]


[Blessing]    : Goddess of Time (Sealed)  


▶ Time Dilution (Rank S) | Lv.1 [Active]  


• Dilates time at a 5:1 ratio for 10 seconds  


▶ Ashblade Art (Rank A+ → Rank D) [Passive]  


• Original sword art created solely for killing  


▶ Mana Flow (Rank C → Sealed) [Passive]  


For the briefest moment, Veyron's indifferent expression cracked.


Five seconds of the enemy's time… stretched into twenty-five for him.


In battle, that meant absolute dominance.


His expression returned to calm as he continued reading.


"What are these attributes based on?" he asked.


[The system quantifies your physical, mental, and metaphysical potential.]


[For reference: an average adult possesses values of 10 in all attributes.]


[Average Fate Value per individual: 100.]


"I was careless," Veyron muttered. "When I was young, I ignored mana control… ignored foundational training."


He had been born as the sole heir of the Blackvale Consortium, the wealthiest power in the world. Nobles bent. Kings negotiated. His parents never pressured him—believing true talent would bloom naturally when he entered the World Academy at fifteen.


In his previous life, that indulgence had shaped him.


"I won't repeat that mistake," Veyron said quietly.


His intelligence and charm—already far beyond his peers—had once turned him into the most dangerous man alive. This time, those traits would be sharpened from the beginning.


He stared at the glowing status screen.


"This life," he whispered, voice devoid of warmth,


But to the one person he had failed before.
