The Yakmun Clan was destroyed during a massacre with only one survivor. He was Jin Ja-Kang and he only had one goal in his mind. He desired to kill each and every person who was responsible for wiping out his clan.

Kim Dong-Jin, a high school student, appears to be a badass moody teenager, but that’s not all. He’s also a powerful villain focused on utterly destroying humanity. There’s one weird thing about him, and it’s kind of funny.
He is a merciless villain, yet he is unable to kill anyone (Yes I am not even lying).
When he tries to kill someone, he is thrown back in time. He is trapped in a time loop, but how can he get out of it? I can’t answer that because I want you to discover it for yourself by reading this manhwa.

If you’re looking for a revenge story in which the main character is a complete badass, this manhwa is for you. This is the story of Seayoung, who was beaten by eight of his classmates and put in a coma.
When he awoke from his coma, he discovered that his father had killed himself in order for his son to receive justice.
The attackers obtained a proper sentence as a result of his father’s final effort, but that was insufficient for Seayoung. Seayoung wants them to suffer, even more, so he took matters into his own hands and began preparing.
What does he intend to do? Is he going to murder them? If you want to know what Seayoung’s genuine motive is, you must read this manhwa.

Just by glancing at the title, you can tell that the MC of this manhwa is unable to live a regular life. He was the Dimitry family’s firstborn son. You are mistaken if you believe that because he is the eldest, he is the most intellectual.
He is known as the Dimitry Family’s fool, and his younger brother makes fun of him (Well, we all are mocked by our younger ones).
Read this manhwa to find out if his wish to live a regular life is fulfilled or not.

You will be sent to the underworld if the Grim Reaper shouts your name three times. Something similar was about to happen to our ruthless MC but when he swallowed the pill of immortality to avoid death, he survived.
When Hyeokyeon Mugang opened his eyes, he was in the body of a small child, and this time, he was a member of the clan that he had destroyed in his previous life. Yes, you are correct if you think he has now become a member of the Shaman clan.
This is where our ruthless MC’s true journey begins, as he seeks to become the best Shaman disciple.
