The world’s largest VRMMO, Conviction, was almost like a second world for humanity. Nie Yan prided himself in his Level 180 Thief. While he could barely be considered among the top experts, he was penniless and unable to advance in life; a situation forced upon him by the enemy of his father. In the end, he chose to assassinate his father’s enemy and lay dying shortly afterwards, 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.
