In a world where power is measured by affinities and strength reigns supreme, Ash the Assassin stands as a formidable force, feared by all who cross his path. With unrivaled strength, vast wealth, and the prestige of a feared legend, Ash's horrific works, even with royalty, ensure his role as the world's greatest executioner, eliminating anything for those who would feed him good money. Yet, behind the facade of power lies a hollow existence, devoid of purpose and fulfillment. When Ash meets his end at the hands of the enigmatic Thirteen Months, he is granted a second chance in a world vastly different from his own—a world brimming with advanced technology and a new power hierarchy. As Ash navigates this unfamiliar terrain, he faces not only the daunting task of rectifying past mistakes but also a deeper existential dilemma. The peace and prosperity of this new world conceal hidden threats, questioning Ash's very reason for existence and challenging his beliefs about strength and purpose. In a journey of self-discovery and redemption, Ash must confront the shadows of his past while forging a new path in a world where the true meaning of power is redefined.
