The Fated Bond

Daniel's previous life ended in tragedy. Expelled from the Academy, he lived to witness the apocalypse that wiped out humanity—only to be killed in the end at the hands of his childhood friend, Lin. Reborn at the age of eighteen, Daniel once again finds himself facing expulsion. This time, however, he is determined to change his fate. Armed with the combat experience and wisdom carried over from his past life, he resolves to clear his name and secure his place at the Academy—all for the sake of uncovering a single truth: why did Lin, once so gentle and kind, become the "Lord of Death" who would go on to destroy the world?
