Alvis was supposed to die. But now he is forced to live.

Born with a deadly curse, in a world full of magic and advanced science, the 17-year-old Alvis Silva never knew what it meant to live. His death day was only two months away; the end was near, yet before he could die, someone killed him.

However, instead of waking up in heaven, he woke up in the past just a few hours before his death. His life turned into a video game, where failure meant death and death meant respawning and trying again. To make matters worse, surviving an assassin's attack only was level 1.

Yet if life was a video game, all he had to do was level up to win – not just in power, but also in character. As Alvis navigates the perilous loops of time, he learns what it means to live. After all, a time loop is just an eternal cycle of self-mastery.

What to expect:

- not perfect prose, I'm not a native speaker so go easy on me

- smart mc but can make mistakes from time to time

- lots of character development, it's a character-oriented story so don't expect the mc to be perfect in every area of life

- some romance, it's a story about a teenage boy, so yes

- multiracial society with well-crafted world-building set in a futuristic world with magic

- slice of life passages, mostly in the beginning of new loops as a build-up

Note: This is a rewritten version of my old story Try Again Alvis
