Reborn in a World of the Dead

Amelia is an ancient continent that has existed for countless years. It seems that, by some mysterious design of nature, a new race rises every ten thousand years, defeats the continent's reigning power, and becomes its new leading people. Like the changing of day and night and the circling of the stars, each race can rule the continent for only ten thousand years. This law has never been broken... until the age of humanity! The will of nature has descended, and the new leading people stand ready. Yet at this very moment, in the face of an unchanging law, a discordant note has appeared, the only one in more than a hundred thousand years... though it seems to have happened entirely by chance, perhaps even without anyone realizing it. [Excerpt from the elemental race's historical work: The Leading People of a Hundred Thousand Years Later: A Stroll Beneath the Wheels of History] Mysteriously reborn as his five-year-old self, Luo Yan, a necromantic alchemist who had just advanced to seventh-rank Archmage and was on the verge of making history, felt that his fate was truly miserable... But it hardly mattered. Since he had a second chance at life, he might as well enjoy himself to the fullest. ...Especially since he already knew what “history” had in store.
