Synopsis
His grandfather’s gruesome death turns Jeong into a bloodthirsty, ruthless man: the Scythe Demon. His only goal is revenge on the one responsible, but rage isn’t enough: to stand any chance against such an enemy he needs to train in martial arts. It shares an original author, Hanjung Worya, with Absolute Sword Sense and Nano Machine.
My take
The sequel to Absolute Sword Sense and prequel to Nano Machine, though they’re fairly independent stories. Although the protagonist is absolutely overpowered, it’s an interesting story and he makes you need to read about him. It doesn’t yet have the longevity of its sibling series, but in my opinion it’s the best of the three. Required reading.
