Chapter 123: Mocking Fate with Death
The first time, the original owner of the body had been killed by wandering thieves on the streets late at night while trying to earn extra rush fees. That directly led to the arrival of his soul from another world.
For some unknown reason, the Black Hand behind everything had seemingly failed to save the original owner that time.
The second time was on the shallows of Copper Creek Forest, when he had been pierced through the chest by a Goblin Brute’s stone spear while protecting Damian.
The third time was just now, when he had chosen to activate his dragon form and exchange blows with Buck at the very limit, forcibly enduring that fatal poisoned blade.

Otherwise, he simply could not think of any other way, aside from complete death and reset, that could forcibly break free from the terrifying methods used by that horrible Black Hand to manipulate fate.
