The Dark Swordsman Returns

On a battlefield at the brink of annihilation, unknown soldier Gray Lee had his chest pierced through—and he awaited death. Only humanity's strongest heroes—the Sword Saint, the Divine Archer, the Great Sage, and the Ultimate Shield—stood a chance against the "Liquidator," a deadly enemy capable of burning down an entire continent in a single day. Yet even those heroes fell, one by one, until all hope was lost... At least, that's what it should've been. Gray did not die. Instead, he was guided by Chronos, the Master of Time, and bestowed an unknown power. With it, he delivered a powerful blow to the Liquidator, shaking the threads of fate itself. But just as a chance of victory appeared, another beam of light struck, and Gray's body reduced to nothing... Chronos's voice thundered: "I shall send you to the past. Save this world." The next thing Gray knew, he woke up in his hometown, which should long have been destroyed. With the power to transcend time and his memories of the future, Gray sets out to become a warrior even stronger than the heroes.
