Hunters getting sponsored by their Sponsors, and amongst them, the most dazzling 12 heroes of them all. They claim themselves to be Gods and started Eden. Eden ruled the world. That was the era that Lee Jun-Kyeong had been living in. Hunters rule the world that normal citizens are living in, like domesticated animals. However, Lee Jun-Kyeong had a special book in his possession. It was about the life story of a forgotten yet true hero, the Demon King. One day, one of the 12 heroes, Athena, came looking for him. 'It's the past? Over a hundred years ago? When Hunters first started appearing?' However, he fell back into the past. The Demon King's sponsor, The Sky of the Apocalypse, had sponsored him instead. Although he walked a similar path as what the Demon King took... 'It wouldn't be the same as the Demon King's.' I dreamt of a much better future than the Demon King; using the very same power that the Demon King had, I would become a Player above all hunters. 'From today, I'm a Player.'

Inexplicably reborn in the year 2003, having failed terribly in his previous life, the prevailing concern with Xu Tingsheng, that stands above all else, is none other than her. But alas, he is just months away from entering university, while she is but in her first year of junior high… Regarding this, all he can do is wait silently…for now. In the meantime, other matters remain. There were quite a few things that went…rather badly, back then. Given the chance to change things, how would it not be the best decision to give that roulette wheel another spin with the odds stacked a better way, to attempt to change those dismal fates? And in some matters, does the alternative even truly exist? Hence flaps the butterfly’s wings… In Xu Tingsheng’s new ‘second chance’ life, the power of foreknowledge coupled with intelligence pre-empts excellence, and that, coupled with personal charisma and character, begets women. Here he strives for success, while always keeping foremost in his mind that for which he exists, that which his achievements are ultimately meant to protect and cherish. And amidst all this, the season of youth does bloom for the young, deep, complicated romance and spontaneous, hot-blooded fighting never failing to inspire. Philosophical and deep amidst the great, original tale of modernity it tells, this is a thought-provoking story of life, on life, on living.

Yu Il-Shin is a novel writer and a genius at that (as claimed by his editor-in-charge). But in this modern era where Hunters, monsters, and dungeons are rampant, he also hopes to awaken and gain some valuable abilities of his own and maybe have a successful change in career. He did awaken, and off he went to the Hunter Association to get himself examined. He was found to have awakened with Creation-type abilities and was evaluated to be of the lowest rank of all: G-rank. Yet, something interesting happened to him. He chanced upon a strange game on his phone: God-Maker, which he hadn’t recalled installing before, but still decided to launch the mobile game anyway, trying to see what it was before uninstalling it altogether. On the game, he found a few ants crawling on the screen, and instinctively began crushing them. During this period of awakening and playing the strange mobile game, he was also working on a new novel that was put up for serialization on a famous webnovel site. If you are wondering whether he was killing the ants out of anger or not, and how he progressed on the game, check out On Hiatus: God’s Personal Reason!
