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 ferocious magic struck Nie Yan, but it didn't cause him any damage.


The shadow demons that were attacked immediately scattered in all directions, gradually clearing a path ahead of Nie Yan.


Nie Yan patiently waited, watching as those shadow demons dispersed, then activated the Tempest Step and dashed madly towards the cliff base ahead.


It would take at most half a minute for him to reach the base of that cliff.


Since the three Light and Dark Holy Dragons previously drew the attention of a portion of the shadow demons, most of them had already spread to both sides. Moreover, the attack from the Brilliant Burst Forbidden Curse had driven away the remaining shadow demons, leaving an unobstructed path ahead for Nie Yan.


As soon as Nie Yan activated the Tempest Step, two of the nearest shadow demons suddenly sensed something, roared, and began encircling towards Nie Yan against the Brilliant Burst.
