I got to the end of that webnovel recently. The main thing that stuck with me is how Joshua finally unseals his full power as the Spear Master and faces off against the corrupted Saintess and the ancient demon king. After a huge final battle where he sacrifices his own life force, he manages to purge the demonic corruption but ends up in a sort of suspended animation. The epilogue jumps forward like a hundred years, and he's basically a legend, a statue in the capital. It's a bittersweet, open-ended finish that focuses on his legacy more than a traditional happy ending. Felt a bit rushed, honestly, but I liked that he didn't just get a princess and a castle.
Some readers online were mad he didn't end up with any of the female leads romantically, but I thought it fit his character. He was always more about duty and atonement than personal happiness. The last line is something about the wind still carrying stories of his spear.

Okay, so I remember the ending being super divisive on the forums. Joshua wins, but at a massive personal cost. He uses some forbidden spear technique that basically burns him out from the inside to destroy the demon king's core. He survives, but his powers are gone, and he fakes his death to wander the world anonymously. The final chapter has him watching from a distance as the kingdom he saved holds a memorial for him. It's very melancholic.
I was kinda disappointed, not gonna lie. After all that buildup and the whole 'return' aspect, him just walking away felt anticlimactic. I wanted to see him recognized, or at least get a quiet life with one of the characters who stuck by him. The author seemed to go for a 'true heroes are forgotten' vibe, which is a valid choice, but it didn't completely land for me after hundreds of chapters of power progression.

The conclusion hinges on sacrifice. Joshua merges his spirit with his legendary spear to become a permanent seal on the demonic rift. He's not dead, but he's not free either—a guardian for eternity. The last scene is his loyal knight visiting the now-peaceful valley, sensing his presence in the wind. It's poetic, prioritizing the world's safety over the protagonist's future, which is a stark contrast to most power-fantasy endings.

"I swear, they will beg for death!"
After a car accident left me with amnesia, a woman claiming to be my girlfriend proposed to me in the most heartfelt way. Everyone around me said I'd been waiting for this moment for seven whole years and urged me to just say yes.
In my past life, I nodded along without thinking twice. Her childhood best friend, who turned out to be the long-lost biological son of my parents, ended up going with them to Neller City—and completely leapfrogged into a whole new social class.
As for me, I followed Estelle Camden back to her hometown and became just some ordinary guy from the countryside. Cooking, doing laundry, taking care of her bedridden father—I did it all, for thirty years straight.
But Estelle left to find work in the city just a year after we got married, and she'd only come back once every few years. The money she sent was barely enough to keep a beggar going.
It wasn't until I lay wasted away on my deathbed, barely clinging to life, that I finally saw the truth in her cold, calculating eyes. She let out a sigh of relief and confessed, "The couple who came looking for their child back then—they were your real parents. They're worth hundreds of millions. But you? You're so ordinary—what right did you have to that kind of life? So I gave the DNA test to Derek instead.
"Derek is handsome and clever. He deserves the good life way more than you do."
When she saw the rage burning in my eyes, she just gave a careless little smile. "You know, sometimes I actually felt guilty looking at you. But now, you're finally about to die—so I guess that's one less thing weighing on my conscience."
Right after she said that, I coughed up a mouthful of blood and died, seething with regret.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back in that hospital bed—and Estelle was asking me to marry her.

In the realm of 'Wild Valley World,' Sebastian was a legendary figure, renowned as the master of enlightenment. As the world's leading mage, he possessed the extraordinary power to manipulate the elements and shape the virtual world to his will. His name was synonymous with authority, and his presence garnered admiration from countless players. He had long reveled in the glory of the gaming world.
However, a tragic twist altered the course of his narrative. Sebastian's heart was torn between two cherished bonds - his beloved partner and his brother, both of whom had once been his closest confidants. Yet, darkness infiltrated their hearts, leading to a cruel betrayal. Deceived by their false sincerity, Sebastian found himself ensnared by the 'Black Dragon King,' a formidable boss dwelling in the mystical realm of immortals, notorious for being one of the game's most elusive and ruthless foes.
With little time to react, Sebastian faced his grim fate within the perilous lair of the Black Dragon King. The battle was fierce, and he ultimately met a tragic demise, consumed by the Black Dragon King. His in-game avatar crumbled, leaving no trace of his existence.
Time passed, and it seemed that Sebastian was lost within the digital archives of the game. Yet, fate had different plans. Against all odds, he was reborn, his consciousness awakened, back in the world of 'Wild Valley World,' one day before the game's official launch.
Sebastian's gaze met the vibrant landscapes of the virtual world once more. With unwavering determination, he realized he had been granted a unique opportunity - a chance to change his destiny. Equipped with the knowledge of his past life, he embarked on a journey to rewrite his own story and become a formidable force once more in the realm of 'Wild Valley World.'
Man, I actually have a bone to pick with this. Everyone jumps to 'Ouroboros' or the Demon Lord as the big bad, but the main villain to me, the one who actually drives the whole conflict, is Emperor Lancer. He's not a cartoonish evil overlord; he's a prideful, paranoid ruler who can't handle the return of someone he thought he'd erased. His actions, his political maneuvering, and his refusal to see anyone as an equal is what systematically destroys his own empire from within.
Joshua's return exposes every crack in Lancer's reign. The emperor spends so much energy trying to crush a ghost from his past that he ignores the real threats creeping in from the outside. His villainy is in his pettiness, his ego. He's a study in how absolute power corrupts absolutely, but also makes you incredibly stupid and blind. That's far more compelling than another generic demon king, honestly.
I loved watching his carefully constructed world of control just unravel because he couldn't let go of a grudge.
Hold on, wait, you've seen the rumors floating around about 'Return of the Legendary Spear Knight' being based on a true historical figure too? I went down that rabbit hole for a solid afternoon, checking all the wikis and forums I could find.
From everything I've pieced together, the answer is no. It's a completely original fantasy novel and webcomic set in a fictional world with its own empires and knightly orders. The magic system, the reincarnation premise—none of that lines up with any real medieval history I've ever studied. The author likely drew general inspiration from European chivalric romance tropes, which can feel authentic, but the specifics are all invented.
It's funny how that myth gets started, though. Maybe it's because the main character, Matthew, feels so grounded in his military tactics and the political maneuvering is written with such gritty detail. It creates a convincing illusion of reality that makes people wonder.
Man, that title sends me back. I ended up diving into 'Return of the Legendary Spear Knight' because I burned through all the major webtoon adaptations and needed something new. The webnovel is floating around on a bunch of sites, but the translation quality is a real patchwork. Some aggregators have it up to hundreds of chapters, but they're often machine-translated and a slog to get through.
Your absolute safest bet for a decent read is Wuxiaworld. They usually pick up the more popular series and have actual editing. I don't think they have the official license for this one, but their version was coherent when I checked a while back. Just be prepared for the classic regression fantasy tropes—it’s all there, done with a spear instead of a sword. The pacing in the middle really dragged for me.
