Leveling Up Through Affection: The Villain's Return

In his first life, Liam Cross was a nightmare. He was the SSS-Rank Shadow Sovereign, a solitary villain who slaughtered rival guilds, soloed Cataclysm Gates, and died exactly as he lived: completely and utterly alone. His dying thought as a thirty-eight-year-old virgin? All this absolute power, and I never even knew what it felt like to be wanted. The Goddess of Fate hears his hollow curse. She drags his soul back in time to the exact moment of his Awakening, throwing him into his weak, fragile twenty-year-old body. But she does not just send him back. She slams a divine contract into his face.
