After seventeen years of bloody battles in a mission world, she returns from killing the System, only to discover that just seventeen minutes have passed in her original world.
Jiang Xi, her body wrapped in bandages from another world and the bloodstained Crown Ring “Yuanji” in her pocket, sits back down at her high school desk. Her parents think she’s just been doing homework, and her classmates take her for a quiet transfer student.
Then, on her first day at the new school, she sees that face: the school’s resident god, Rong Chen, who looks exactly like the final villain who ruined seventeen years of her life and sparked the Eternal Night War.
When he smiles and offers her an anonymous love letter, Jiang Xi instinctively crushes the glass in her hand.
Blood drips as the System’s remains, long since torn to pieces, let out an unprecedented, piercing scream deep in her mind.
“Warning… high-dimensional contaminant… same-origin mark…”
The boy, disguised as a top student, bends to pick up the shards. His fingertips brush her bloodied palm, and his smile is as gentle as spring water.
“Classmate, have we met somewhere before?”
“Yuanji” spins silently upon the throne. She knows the hunt has never ended.
This time, what she holds is no longer a strategy guide handed to her by the System, but the blade of a god-slayer returned from the dead.
