Asher Williams was the epitome of arrogance—a spoiled young master who spent his days in reckless indulgence, from empty affairs to ruthless beatings of those he deemed beneath him. Among his victims was an orphan boy, a powerless target Asher humiliated in a fit of anger.
Years later, the tables turned. That same orphan returned, now a fearsome disciple of a reclusive martial arts master. When their paths crossed again, the boy shattered Asher’s pride, broke his body, and ended his life.
But death was not the end. Asher awoke, regressed to the very day he was meant to torment the boy. This time, driven by fury and desperation to escape his doomed fate, Asher chose a darker path. He unleashed unspeakable cruelty on the boy, torturing and killing him in a grotesque display of malice.
Yet, as the blood dried and Asher thought he had rewritten his story, a glowing blue screen materialized before him:
[Congratulations, third-rate villain. You have defied fate, killed the Chosen One, and awakened the Vile System.]
But in a world where fate refuses to be denied, Asher is about to learn that escaping his role as a stepping stone comes with unimaginable consequences.
