Trailer
[Aurum’s System]
Yes master.
Aurum
Now… I call forth the new challengers of my domain!
Aurum
I’m really excited this year!
Aurum
Aurelia told me we have good applicants this time.
[Aurum’s System]
Master… don’t forget we are on live.
[Aurum’s System]
We can’t reveal them…
Aurum
I just can’t contain my excitement!!
Aurum
It’s been twenty years since the last event!
Aurum
I just created you that time so you won’t really remember….
[Aurum’s System]
Master, they do not need to know that.
Aurum
It doesn’t really matter.
Aurum
Things will be easier with you around…
Aurum
Back in the old days, I had to manage everything.
Aurum
The teasers, their payments….
Aurum
It was like a one man battle….
[Aurum’s System]
Why are you still doing this then, master?
Aurum
Imagine living for thousands of years.
Aurum
Even the other bosses here were bored…
Aurum
Why are you even giving me the tsk…
Aurum
I’m not really here to argue with you.
Aurum
Since we’re both here for one reason.
Aurum
To introduce my game!!!
Aurum
Unfortunately, I cannot reveal much about the game mechanics…
Aurum
Because I’m sure the challengers are watching right now…
Aurum
But I’m certain that we’re going have a fun time!
[Aurum’s System]
Master, you’re being harsh.
Aurum
Aren’t I spoiling them a bit?
Aurum
Their ancestors didn’t get this much information before…
Aurum
I’ll be giving you guys a little hint.
Aurum
This game only have five stages…
Aurum
Each stages have their own boss…
Aurum
Wait… is that one a boss?
Aurum
System, can you contact her for a while and tell me if she’ll participate this time?
[Aurum’s System]
Will do, master.
Aurum
I really can’t reveal the grand prize here.
Aurum
But challengers… you’ll be very eager to win once you know my prize.
Aurum
But… everything comes with a price!
Aurum
I’ll discuss everything once we aired the first episode!
Aurum
I forgot to introduce myself.
Aurum
And see you on the first episode!

White
Who wouldn’t know their name?
Red
Why are you acting as if they’ve dominated a nation?
Theodore
Never heard of them…
White
You might be an average person then.
White
Consider yourself lucky not knowing their name.
Meelby
I wouldn’t consider myself lucky knowing you either…
Meelby
Acting as if you’re not someone to be feared as well.
Meelby
How would you know me?
[Aurum’s System]
The tenth challenger, a mischievous prince…
Red
A group of delusional people….
Red
Are you even kidding me?
Aurum
We have people from different timelines!
White
No wonder why they’re traditionally dressed.
Aurum
It’s not the time to fight.
Aurum
I know you are also excited to get to know your fellow challengers…
Aurum
But I cannot allow violence in this room.
Red
I am not dumb enough to fight random people
Aurum
So… are you ready to know what you’ll get?
Aurum

Aurum
Our viewers will be able to know the prize!
Aurum
We kept it hidden before
Aurum
But it only sparked controversies…
Aurum
I got bad reviews for my show
Aurum
LIKE YOU HATERS COULD CARE?!
[Aurum’s System]
Master, calm down.
Aurum
İt doesn’t really matter
Aurum
Challengers, I need your attention!
Aurum
The winner of this competition will walk away with…
Aurum
ANOTHER CHANCE AT LIFE!
Aurum
Don’t look at me with a gloomy face…
Aurum
Do you guys not really realize what’s happening right now?
[ random viewer ]
[ They can revive? ]
[ random viewer ]
[ İf I knew that’s the price I would’ve applied lol ]
Aurum
Aside from turning on the viewer chat…
Aurum
You guys have long been dead.
White
Just tell me the price and I’d give it to you.
Aurum
Ohh I don’t care about your earthly money…
Aurum
You are carefully selected souls!
Aurum
It took my friends more than a decade just to gather your fragments.
[ random viewer ]
[ I thought they could easily gather souls? ]
[ random viewer ]
[ It’s not that hard I heard… but it’s time consuming ]
[ random viewer ]
[ No one wants to do such a hard job XD ]
Aurum
Viewers!!! Calm down!
Aurum
I’m going to filter your words from now on…
Aurum
We don’t want you distracting our dear challengers.
Benedict
Can you explain what’s happening?
Aurum
You really are unaware!
Aurum
AFTER EVERYTHING YOU DID?!
Aurum
Since you’re so unaware of what’s happening…
Aurum
I’ll explain it to you one by one…

Episode 1: Part II
Aurum
Don’t you all realize that you accepted this challenge?
Aurum
Anyways… time to explain it one by one.
Aurum
All of you were considered villains.
Aurum
Villains who took thousands of lives…
Theodore
I don’t recall getting my hands dirty.
[Aurum’s System]
Summary of sins….
[Aurum’s System]
Now showing:
[Aurum’s System]
Showing Red Emperor’s timeline…
Extra
Emperor, the Southern Nations are on the move…
Red
They do take me like a joke…
Red
When will they arrive?
Extra
A few days from now…
Red
Kill everyone related to them.
Extra
They have familial roots in our nation.
Red
Call everyone related into the palace.
Red
I will kill them with my very own hands.
Aurum
After that you didn’t stop with the people you killed.
Aurum
You ended another nation with your own hands.
Red
I only had to do what’s best for my nation.
Aurum
You’re a good emperor.
Aurum
A good leader of his nation.
Aurum
You cannot stop the urge to kill…
Red
I don’t know what you’re talking about…
Aurum
Don’t you think killing those people is too much for an emperor like you?
Aurum
But you really took your sweet time ending everything with your own hands.
Aurum
Ahh… how unfortunate.
Aurum
You even ended up killing yourself because of the urge to kill…
Red
HOW DID YOU KNOW ALL OF THESE?
[ random viewer ]
[ What a psycho… ]
[ random viewer ]
[ Imagine getting killed because the emperor likes killing T^T ]
Aurum
You wanted to come back to life….
Aurum
İt doesn’t really matter why you killed those people.
Aurum
You’re here because the amount of lives you took exceeds the many.
Aurum
Shall we move on to the next?
Aurum
Don’t be scared now!
[Aurum’s System]
Continuation…
[Aurum’s System]
Showing violet’s timeline…
Violet
You actually believe I’m into you?
Extra
What are you talking about?
Extra
Aren’t we supposed to be together?
Violet
I never promised you anything.
Violet
And you have the audacity to announce our marriage?
Extra
Women will continue to crawl on you…
Violet
DO I NEED YOU TO INTERFERE?
Extra
İf you don’t stay with me I’m gonna kill myself
Violet
*Handed him the knife*
Violet
It would be my pleasure
Violet
I don’t want to dirty my hands with your filthy blood
—- End of Violet’s Past —-
Aurum
Due to censorship we cannot show the most brutal parts of your life…
Aurum
But we can show the roots…
Violet
How is that connected to me being here?
Aurum
After that man you ended up secretly killing a clan.
Aurum
Aren’t you a play boy?
Aurum
Regardless of gender…
Aurum
You couldn’t care any less.
Aurum
You were known to have many concubines…
Aurum
But after spending the night with you….
Aurum
Every single one of your affairs… died.
Violet
How is that my fault?
Aurum
Do you really want me to expose what you did?
Aurum
I personally believe it’s more brutal that Red Emperor’s thirst for blood.
Aurum
You considered those people toys…
Aurum
And you were soul tied to thousands of people.
Aurum
More than what I could count…
Aurum
But that isnt the issue here.
Aurum
The system doesn’t care how many bodies you’ve been with…
Aurum
But surprisingly for you…
Aurum
It’s half the amount of the people you’ve killed.
Aurum
And the effects of it affecting the survivors…descendants…
Aurum
I could say it reached the kid’s timeline there…
Meelby
Oooo it was that bad?
Meelby
Are you perhaps talking about OoO?
Aurum
WE CAN’T SAY THAT WORD
Aurum
See… kids nowadays are smart.
Aurum
I thought you didn’t care?
Aurum
Aren’t you being turned on with their deaths?
Violet
I know why I’m here.
Violet
The world doesn’t need to know if my sins.
[ random viewer ]
[ If I was them I wouldn’t have chosen this guy… ]
Aurum
Now you’re more accepting!
Aurum
Shall we move on to the next?
[ random viewer ]
[ The kid looks innocent ]
[ random viewer ]
[ Why is he even there? ]
Aurum
I didn’t ask for volunteers this time…
Meelby
Can’t you just pick me?
Aurum
If you want to go so bad…
Aurum
System, I want the other kid!!!
[Aurum’s System]
Yes, master.
[Aurum’s System]
Summary of sins…
[Aurum’s System]
Showing Julius’ Timeline…
Extra
We don’t have much time…
Extra
We need you to leave.
Extra
Your mother is dead!
Extra
You need to come with me!
Extra
THE PEOPLE ARE REVOLTING!
Julius
Live a life of misery?
Extra
We’re going to hide.
Julius
Father would cover up for me.
—- End of Julius’ Past —-
[ random viewer ]
[ Huh… ]
[ random viewer ]
[ Did they pick the wrong guy? ]
Sam Xin
Hmm… that kid doesn’t sound so bad.
Meelby
I know a killer when I see one….
Meelby
And in this room everyone has killed a soul or two…
Aurum
Don’t be fooled with his innocent looks…
Aurum
This kid’s a sadistic brat.
Aurum
You thought you won’t pay for the lives you’ve taken?
Aurum
You didn’t believe there was a life after death?
Aurum
There’s no father who’ll cover up for you now.
Meelby
The person in the video
Meelby
Was the one killed you…
Aurum
Now, are you all tamed or you need me to reveal more of your sins?
Julius
Shouldn’t you show them all?
Aurum
I wasn’t really supposed to show those clips.
Aurum
But you guys are so noisy.
Aurum
İf you failed, there will be a tribute for you.
Ru
Does it mean that we will die?
Theodore
We are technically dead…
Benedict
Why am I here then?
Theodore
I haven’t killed anyone.
Theodore
I’m a clean soul.
Aurum
We were never wrong…
Aurum
You were the cause of their death?
Aurum
You are all villains.
White
So… we just have to win this?
Aurum
Since I’m so generous….
Aurum
There’s no limit to the amount of winners.
Aurum
You can all win a chance at life!
Aurum
That’s a wrap for our first episode!
