This fantasy manhwa follows a man who gains dimension-hopping trading abilities after being killed, and travels back in time for revenge.

Story: 8/10
The unique interdimensional trading premise sets this apart from standard time travel stories. The pace is slow to start but picks up well at the sword school arc.

Art: 9/10
The art is polished with good compositions and visual flow during fights. The gold accents suit the coin theme. Character designs fit archetypes.

Characters: 8/10
The cunning yet reserved MC is compelling to follow. Supporting characters serve their roles adequately so far. Villains need more nuance.

Enjoyment: 8/10
It starts slow, but became binge-worthy once the trading and battles intensified. The economics keep it fresh compared to similar manhwa.

The dimension hopping gives a creative twist on revenge time travel plots. Worth powering through the slow opening chapters for an entertaining payoff.

The equivalent of a modern manhwa where the MC is into the stock market, but in a historical setting.

Genres/themes: action - adventure - fantasy - historical - regression - time travel

The main goal of our MC is revenge. But as the story moves along he begins to have other goals and he starts to broaden his experience the second time around so his revenge grows or changes compared to what it was initially. Revenge is had, but it’s not the only thing that happens. So if you want a strictly revenge only story I don’t recommend this one.

A significant part of the story is trading ... and merchant type things. I am not a huge fan of that stuff but I still enjoy reading it. If you don’t like money or trading type of manhwas then maybe don’t read this one.

*spoiler* when he gets to trade level 3, that’s when the modern world starts to make an appearance & it is GREAT! I mention this because it has become a favorite part of this manhwa for me :)

It is currently in its 3rd season and it is an adaptation.
