The 'Triad of the Night' is a worldwide organization recognized in all Asian, American and other continent countries, who are afraid that one day they will start their movements. Park Chan-woo, its leader and patriarch, holds the title of 'Monarch', which is only given by the previous Monarch. Park Chan-woo swore an oath. 'I promise that I will kill all the members of the Tríada of the night, including the Seven Seats of the organization; with that, my organization will definitely die'. The Seven Seats, who were the seven strongest members of the organization, and Monarch Park Chan-woo went to war and both sides were decimated. Park Chan-woo was the greatest assassin, but he actually wanted such a life; not really, that's why he decided to step aside from the greatest organization in the world. However, he never imagined that he would be reincarnated in a world with magic, where someone with his talent would live as he had always wished. The only problem is that the strong lead that world and so do the nobles.

Episode 0 - Triad of the Night
─────────────────────────────────
Whisper.
Black rain fell.
They say black rain has a meaning.
Yes.
A meaning that signifies death.
I could see the black droplets falling on my face amidst the thousands of bodies of the Triad of the Night members.
"Haa... This… A rain without anything, huh?"
A weak, bitter, emotionless smile appeared on my face.
"Haha."
I burst into laughter like a madman, not even knowing why.
Before me, all I could see were the corpses of my organization's members.
Because I killed them.
However.
No matter how strong the human body is, it has a limit. Even if I couldn't feel pain or emotions like a normal person, I was still a weak human with a physical limit.
I lowered my gaze as the rain intensified, and the sound of raindrops hitting the ground grew louder.
Until I heard a voice a few meters in front of me.
"Ugh... This is such a mess. Haha, are you seriously human… Monarch Park Chan-woo?"
"....."
Yes, I am human. But a different kind of human.
"Damn it, seriously, why did you betray us? You could have just abandoned everything and passed the title of Monarch to someone else… But instead, you erased it all."
The man's voice before me was broken and weak. Half of his body had been cleanly severed, yet he was still speaking.
And you still question whether I am human.
Look at yourself.
"Anyway… Ugh..."
You can barely speak.
The Seven Seats of the Triad of The Night.
The man before me was the Number One Seat of the organization the second strongest after me.
The rest of the Seats must have died long ago.
Yet, this guy was still alive.
"Why the betrayal, Monarch?"
"....."
My mouth opened slowly, but I couldn't say anything.
"I'm worse off than you and yet you still don't answer me... I thought you'd be the first Monarch to make a real breakthrough... Not like the ones before."
I no longer consider myself the Monarch of the Triad of the Night.
Not for years now.
"Anyway… Ugh… We'll die. However… Damn bastard, I'll chase you even in death."
His eyes slowly closed.
I could see it the moment his breathing neared its end.
My mouth opened slowly, and I managed to utter a few words.
"I was simply deceived all this time…"
"....."
A weak smile appeared on his face.
"Ha, go to hell, bastard."
His breathing stopped, and his eyes shut, marking the end of this war against the world's largest assassin organization.
A war where every single member of the Triad of the Night died because of me.
It was finally over.
"What can I say… If it weren't for you… I… would have never realized it…"
My eyes began to close as my heart slowed its beating.
"Thank you for… telling me the truth…"
The black rain fell harder than ever, but at that moment, I felt it.
For the first time in my life.
Emotion.
It was sorrow and joy.
After dying alongside my organization…
