Childhood Friend of the Zenith
Gu Yangchunβs life was a tale of betrayal and regret.
Once a disciple of the Orthodox sects, he turned against them and became a demonic human under the command of the fearsome Heavenly Demon.
Bound by orders, he committed countless atrocitiesβnot of his own will, but compelled by the Heavenly Demonβs power.
Regret and guilt became his constant companions.
During the Great Orthodox-Demon War, his fate turned again.
Thanks to Wi Seol-ah, who defeated the Heavenly Demon that had even the three supremes of the Orthodox forces kneeling, Gu Yangchun was captured by the Orthodox forces.
He suffered for his sins, and with whatever shred of morality remained, he died providing Seol-ah with crucial information about the Demon Cultβstill bound by the Heavenly Demonβs curse.
But fate had other plans.
Gu Yangchun awokeβregressed to the moment he first met Wi Seol-ah.
This time, he resolved to live a quiet, unassuming life.
Yet the past has a way of catching up.
The dark ties and unresolved debts of his previous life began to close in⦠one by one.
From betrayer to victim, from pawn to survivorβGu Yangchunβs second chance would test his will, wisdom, and courage like never before. βοΈπ₯π
