A reincarnated evil lord knows the value of a good tool. At the Arcane Academy, Daren Morin has found a toolkit of broken misfits, and he's ready to start building his arsenal. His goal isn't just to survive his second life; it's to dominate it. He offers them secrets and forbidden power, demanding a price they don't yet understand. Then, the game changes. A routine competition becomes a deadly dungeon crawl—an unexpected trial by fire.

For two centuries, Daren Morin was one of the most powerful mages in existence, a master of forbidden magic and feared across the realm. But betrayal ended everything. Now, he wakes up...eighteen years old. Again. Stripped of power. Trapped in a ruthless magic academy. Mocked by classmates who call him "Moron." This time, he's weaker. This time, they think he's no threat. This time, they're dead wrong.

Tortured, framed for murder, and hunted by a kingdom. For Daren Morin, it's a familiar taste of betrayal. His enemies think he’s cornered. They're about to learn how wrong they are. His only path to untouchable status lies within a mysterious, labyrinthine artifact—the stage for a deadly, kingdom-wide tournament.

A failed escape dumps Daren Morin on a distant continent—with a parasite burrowing into his mind. The Mind Serpent coiled around his Mana Portal has one goal: devour his consciousness and wear his body like a suit. Most mages would panic. Daren sees an opportunity.

The difference is, this time his enemies don't know who they're dealing with—or what's already living inside him.
