Dropped. Don't read this. *** Various monsters came out from mysterious gates that appeared all over the world. Along with this incident, humans also gained power and were called hunters. Radmilo Laiv is a hunter with the power to control time. He spent his life serving the world government and becoming a hero. However, he was killed because his power was considered a threat to the government. It was a stroke of luck that Radmilo could return to the past because of his powers. In this life, he doesn’t want to be a hero anymore. Should he play the evil role and become a villain? *** The cover is mine, commissioned by @erminea_ on IG 暂停。
Radmilo did not decide right away because he had to adapt to the circumstances. However, he would still take revenge no matter what decision he made later. He immediately took all the bags that were given to him. Then he followed the other hunters into the dungeon.
This raid was carried out by six people, including Radmilo. He recollected that the dungeon they entered was a D-Class dungeon, and it was not too difficult.
The problem was that in the dungeon there were a lot of annoying goblins because they kept respawning after being killed. The condition for leaving the dungeon was getting the main boss' heart, but the goblins would obstruct the hunters' actions.
After entering the dungeon, Radmilo thought about what he should do. Regardless, before taking revenge, he had to check something first.
"Status window," Radmilo whispered as quietly as possible.
The man wanted to confirm his status after using the <Spool Back> skill. He was worried that all his achievements would be lost because of his skill. However, his anxiety quickly disappeared when a notification came out.

"Haha, I thought that my power is indeed extraordinary!" exclaimed Radmilo, trying not to put forward his voice.
Nevertheless, one of the hunters looked at him with a troubled look. The hunter walked up to Radmilo and gave a disgusted smile.
"Do you know that your voice can provoke monsters in dungeons? Today you look weirder than usual, even though you are always silent like a mute," mocked the hunter, still showing a contemptuous attitude.
Meanwhile, Radmilo, who was still harmonizing with the situation, was silent. Now he was checking out for a hunter who dared to look down on him.
After remembering again, it turned out that the hunter was Gordan. In his previous life, that man became a sycophant because Radmilo turned so strong.
It was a memory that was both funny and sickening. In the past, Radmilo was always kind because he got the title 'Hero' from society. This was the reason he could not hit Gordan, even though his hands were throbbing.
However, in this life, Radmilo had earned no titles. In other words, he could defeat Gordan and the other hunters at will.
"Sorry. I'm not feeling well today," said Radmilo, pretending to be sick.
Gordan, who was satisfied to see that expression, poked fun at Radmilo again. "You should be grateful that I forgave you this time. However, if you freak again, then you will be finished."
"Thank you very much."
Radmilo's sad look soon changed after Gordan passed before him. Now he would pretend as usual and attack when everyone had scatterbrained.
It must have been nice to see those people glaring with trembling bodies. This was the thing that Radmilo wanted to do in his previous life. And now was the right time to make that wish come true.
Radmilo stayed behind while the other hunters attacked the goblins. To be honest, he was very drowsy because of the fight between hunters and goblins in this dungeon. However, he had no choice and hoped the fight would end soon.
The man remembered that he was hired only to be bullied. The hunters did not need his help to carry the goods. Those who had become hunters felt superior, so humiliating the weak looked satisfying to them.
"So boring," Radmilo muttered, trying not to fall asleep.
Thirty minutes had passed, and he also had been standing that long doing nothing. He planned to wait until the raid was over.
When the hunters intended to leave Radmilo, he would immediately change their intentions. It seemed a pleasure if those snobs were to be surprised because finding out it was their lives that would end, not him.
Radmilo remembered that today's raid would be over soon. He looked at the hunters one by one and realized that Gordan had gone to defeat the main boss, while the others were killing goblins as practice.
Goblins that kept respawning after being killed were not necessarily bad. Newcomer hunters often took advantage of this to increase their strength and agility.
Radmilo's attention no longer focused on the goblins when saw that Gordan had returned. Even though he did not want to admit it, Gordan was strong enough because he got a C-rank.
However, when compared to Radmilo, of course, Gordan lost badly. It took a long time for Gordan to match his rank.
"Let's go from here!"
Gordan shouted and made the other hunters stop attacking the goblins. They glanced at each other and nodded in unison.
In the past, Radmilo thought their nod was a normal thing. However, now he understood the nod was a code to carry out an evil plan against him.
Radmilo knew what was going on, but he would cover his anger with a smile. In a hesitant tone, he asked, "Gordan, shall we go now?"
"Yes, let's go because I have defeated the boss," replied Gordan, who had walked and was followed by other hunters.
Meanwhile, Radmilo became the last person to walk. His position had already proved that he was the least important person in this raid.
Still, Radmilo did not need to be angry because he had led a raid in his previous life. He once felt that he was walking in front of other hunters with pride.
Radmilo thought a lot about his past while waiting for what would happen. A few moments later, the female hunter in front of him stopped walking and touched her body.
"Ugh, looks like I left something behind. It's an expensive sword made of rare material. Please get the sword for me, Radmilo," she said in a worried voice.
Gordan turned to look at Radmilo and ordered, "Find the sword while we will wait for you here."
"A-ah, alright."
Radmilo answered with a faux nervousness and then walked away from the hunters. He remembered that this was the moment they left him. Everyone had left when he found the sword.
It was such an emotional memory that Radmilo clenched his fists. Even so, he controlled his emotions and went to find the sword.
Because he had received such an order in the past, then Radmilo had no trouble finding the sword. As soon as he got it, he went back to meet Gordan.
Yet, unlike in the past, this time Radmilo was going to do something. He said with an optimistic grin, "Activate skill one."
The sound was the trigger for Radmilo's skill. He had to cast the spell and skill one would automatically activate. The skill activation signal was indeed troublesome, especially if other people find out about it.
However, Radmilo thought the trigger appeared as a weakness of the skill itself. He stopped thinking when he saw the notification pop up.
