But in the quiet peace of a love reborn. --- The Kingdom Reborn: The hills surrounding the sanctuary rippled with green as the first flowers of the season stretched toward the sun.

"This AI college application app is a product of Gilbert Corp. It hasn't even been officially launched on the market yet because it requires a large pool of test subjects." They were all smart kids, and the second I dropped the word "subjects", the realization clicked instantly. Luke had tricked everyone into using the app simply to run a free beta test for his family's company. The media immediately contacted their headquarters to initiate a full investigation. In my past life, it wasn't until the glitch was thoroughly exposed that everyone found out the app belonged to Gilbert Corp. But in this life, I was going to detonate that bomb myself.

I jumped. The Widow-Maker struck the crack. CRACK! The crystal shattered. The Golem froze. For one second, everything became silent. Then golden light exploded from its chest. I covered my face. The Golem collapsed. Its massive body broke apart into pieces of glowing stone. The System appeared. [Gold-Hoarder Golem defeated.] [Experience acquired.] [Special reward detected.] I looked toward the remains. A small golden ring lay on the ground. My heart jumped. The Infinite Stamina Ring.

They had just given Core Prime true consciousness. The real apocalypse had officially begun. Not as an enemy, but as a mystery that had just awakened from its slumber.

Before I even realized it, our fingers had laced together, his grip firm. Oliver's face contorted with rage. He looked ready to snap, ready to unleash the same kind of violence he had used to punish me in our past life. But did it even matter? Before he could explode, the mediator called him outside for questioning. One by one, everyone was interrogated. By the end of it, my innocence was undeniable. The apocalypse was a global catastrophe. Anyone trying to use the zombie virus as a tool would first have to ensure they weren't infected themselves. That alone made it nearly impossible.

In my past life, Victor only came to this city half a year later, after learning that Brian had a “living water source.” Thinking of him, I shivered despite the forty-five-degree heat. More than hatred, what I felt was fear. Even before the apocalypse, Victor had been a seasoned operator with ties on both sides of the law—cunning and ruthless, a complete monster. In my past life, after Brian had tricked him, he only managed to get what was left of me. Furious, he vented it all on my body. Relying on my abnormal regenerative ability, he cut me, burned me with cigarettes, and set me on fire.

I was reborn and sent back to three weeks before the zombie virus outbreak. In my previous life, a zombie virus suddenly broke out in my city on Christmas Eve. The entire city collapsed within two days. I was an orphan. My parents had died in a car accident, and I used their compensation money to open a supermarket. Before the zombie virus spread completely, I built a makeshift shelter inside my supermarket. I took in Victoria Blake, a young woman I admired, out of kindness, but she ended up betraying me.

This place… This was the banquet. The mandatory gathering, that all Alphas were required to attend once in a year. My throat went dry. I swallowed hard, my ears ringing as memories surged forward, aligning themselves with horrifying clarity. If I was calculating it correctly, this was five years before the day I was betrayed. My breathing slowed as the realization settled, heavy and undeniable. I had been reborn. I forced my hands to remain still at my sides, even as my pulse raced. The moon goddess… She really answered me.

My head felt light, "Tokyo? He just ran away? The Richard I know doesn't just run away. He fights. He doesn't accept defeat." I thought about my past life, the one I had been reborn from. I had come back three years in time to fix everything, but the story was changing. It was nothing like the usual script I had remembered. Richard was gone. Eleanor was dead, and Katherine is lurking in the shadows. Was it that easy to be finally free? "Maybe he finally gave up," Michelle suggested, sounding relieved. "Maybe he's really scared of my brother." "Maybe," I whispered. But deep down, a chill ran through me. It felt too easy. It felt like a lie.
