In his previous life, the protagonist, Yang Ming, lost his mother and younger sister in a fire caused by his own negligence. His crushing guilt became an obsession. After unexpectedly obtaining a time pocket watch, he transmigrates to the continent of Viteria, burdened with the mission of rewriting the tragedy. The land is divided into nine concentric rings around the royal city, while the seven great families scheme beneath the surface. After the former king is assassinated, a struggle over the succession is about to erupt. Meanwhile, the Clown Troupe secretly plots to unseal an ancient tyrant and overturn the order of the world.
