    Why It Should Get Picked Up:


    Seems like your generic second chance novel, but from what I read in the manhwa, the vibe it gives is fairly different and I can only assume that the novel is much better than the manhwa. I felt a similar vibe to The Novel's Extra.
    The MC is apparently a genius but didn't receive proper training when he was young, now that he is back in time, I'm just excited to see what he'll do from there.

    Second Chance, Time Travel, Romance, Comrades Gathering, Academy Setting (in the beginning at least), Genius MC, it's 100% my cup of tea.

    You can read the manhwa (as of now, 4 chapters are translated) to see for yourself what is it about.

    Description:

    "Now that I'm back, I won't allow my loved ones to die again!"

    The Shadow Labyrinth - the most catastrophic existence humanity has faced in history.
    Desir Arman is one of the six remaining survivors of mankind.

    The six attempted to clear the final level of the labyrinth but ultimately failed, and the world came to an end.

    However - when Desir thought he would meet his demise, what is revealed before him is the world... thirteen years ago?!

    Desir is returned to the past, back to the time when he enrolled at the nation's finest magic academy - Havrion. He is reunited with his precious friends, and is prepared to change the past to save the world and his loved ones...!

    Three years remaining before the emergence of the Shadow World!
    Change the past and gather powerful comrades to save mankind!

    I like the idea of this story, but I am going to be cautious because I've been burned in the past... Ultimately no matter how good the idea if a book is written badly then it won't be fun to read.

    Me too, me too~ saw the manhwa. I really enjoy korean novels and re-do type stories. So long as its not too badly written, *cough* world turned into a game after i woke up *cough*, i can at least use it as a time filler. Bumping + 1 to see if someone picks it up.

    Plus, seems like the main heroine is that pretty blond onee-san, and i'm a pretty big sucker for those.

    It's not The Returner, for one this novel does not suck, at least after seeing a few chapters of the Manhwa.
    Fuck The Returner, man, it's bad.

    the stories for the returner and this is different, in the returner he still has his abilities and shit just needs more mana to power it up, but the mc in this one, returner should have special magic, FROM WHAT I SPECULATE FROM READING THE MANWHA, he basically went back to square 1 with hope and dreams and the knowledge,

    so there should be a vast difference in power progression in these novels, also the mindsets of the two mc's are very different, one that doesnt want to do anything and the other one wanting to save the future(?)
