   This is based on a true story. The protagonist's mother committed suicide when he was young, and his stepmother took over, leading to his confinement in a mental hospital where he was abused for many years. Even the doctors who helped him deliberately manipulated him because they believed his stepmother and father's words, drugging his food. The only other male protagonist who was kind to him died in a car accident in front of him. In the end, he killed everyone in the mental hospital, his stepmother, brother, and father, before being shot dead by the police. (Both male protagonists entered the Dawn Game after their deaths, but initially, neither remembered the other; their memories would return.) The protagonist's personality is crazy but incredibly satisfying!!! (The only drawback... Is that the chapters describing the dungeons are a bit too long.)

    This story has no romantic pairing, and the protagonist is a transmigrator who is tortured as an experimental subject for 7 years before taking revenge.

He's cold, cautious, and taciturn, and his identity is a mystery. It's quite good; he's definitely not a saint and has absolutely no sympathy.
