The Broken Hero Who Doesn’t Want to Be Bothered
Lee Aseok saved humanity once.
It got him betrayed, abandoned, and killed.
When the world fell to monsters and collapsing gates, he fought until his last breath— only for the people he protected to stab him in the back.
But death isn’t the end.
Aseok opens his eyes seven years before the fall—back in the early days of Awakening—completely broken, completely done, and more dangerous than ever.
He refuses the Holy Sword that once chose him.
He won’t play the hero.
He won’t save anyone.
All he carries now is a battered iron rod— and strength that terrifies even the monsters.
Cold. Detached. Dead inside.
A man who no longer cares whether humanity stands or burns…
yet keeps saving it anyway.
This is the story of a hero who doesn’t want to be bothered— and the second chance he never asked for.
