I get reborn, this time bound to a simp system. In my previous life, when the apocalypse happened during Christmas Eve, I gave Victoria Blake, a beautiful woman, shelter and respite, only for her to backstab me in the end.

Now that I'm given a second chance at life, I'll make sure to repay them for the pain and hurt they've caused me in my previous life.
