   The female lead is an assassin who is reborn into the same world with a different identity. She possesses incredibly powerful skills and understands the male lead's feelings, but is initially cold and indifferent, gradually accepting them. The male lead is of high status and capable, but dotes on the female lead and is willing to help her. The story isn't intentionally comedic, but the characters and plot will occasionally bring a smile to your face.
