- Plot
One day, mysterious tombs begin to appear all over the world, causing massive earthquakes upon their emergence. Alongside these tombs are objects known as ‘relics,’ akin to those found in ancient mythology, fairy tales, legends, folk tales, and epics.
These relics conceal tremendous power within them, bestowing upon their owners countless different abilities.
Jooheon Suh is an explorer, excavator, and tomb raider. Betrayed by his boss and on the brink of death at the hands of a newly powerful relic, he unexpectedly finds himself transported fifteen years into the past, before any relics or tombs had first appeared.
Upon his return, his initial actions resemble those of a criminal rather than a repentant individual, engaging in deceit, violence, robbery, kidnapping, murder,…
Armed with information, power, and skills bestowed upon him by his past life, he decides not only to gather but also to dominate the relics to serve him. Additionally, he recruits valuable teammates from his past life and turns them into his slaves, under his command, with one of the relics he obtained aiding him in this endeavor.
This enables the user to awaken memories of the betrayed past life, swiftly rallying them under his banner to oppose that despotic boss and aid him on the path to becoming the king of relics
- Reviews
The series has achieved considerable success in preserving and incorporating historical, mythological, fairy tale, folkloric elements, etc., throughout the entire narrative without causing them to appear disjointed or incomprehensible, even to those unfamiliar with them.
And of course, the main character is a super-powered reincarnator, as often seen in typical reincarnation hero stories, but that trope can become tiresome and predictable. Here, we have a madman, a lunatic, a psychologically disturbed reincarnator, rather than a heroic figure or someone of great magnificence.
All this character does is torment people, incite violence, and steal from them. Not only does the story feature a mentally unstable protagonist, but it also includes action-packed scenes that satisfy viewers’ desires.
While the plot may initially seem somewhat vague, it gradually unfolds with the passage of time, revealing more details step by step.
