Cecil Perdium died with his sword shattered and his vengeance unfulfilled, realizing too late that the man who butchered his family had help from the shadows. Just as the darkness takes him, the Mercenary King wakes up in the one place he never thought he would see again: his own teenage bedroom, years before the tragedy. But the second chance he has been given is a nightmare in its own right. As a seventeen-year-old, Cecil is nothing more than a spoiled brat with a ruined reputation, watching as his family’s best knights abandon their posts in frustration. He knows exactly how the upcoming massacre starts, and he knows he is not nearly strong enough to stop it yet. Armed with the memories of a lifetime of slaughter and a desperate need for redemption, Cecil must rebuild his body from scratch and win back the loyalty of men who currently despise him. If he cannot turn this sinking ship around, he will have to watch everyone he loves die all over again, and this time, there will not be a third life to make it right.
