What would you do if you were granted the power to turn back time every time you died?

Louis Drakeheart once had everything. Born as the grandson of the Dragon King and the son of Earth’s most brilliant scientist and strongest Esper and a Holy Dragon Goddess, his future seemed boundless.

Yet at the age of ten, he failed to awaken his Dragon Bloodline and could not transform into a dragon. Branded a cripple and a failure by his own Dragon Family, he was abandoned, his dreams shattered.

Growing increasingly bitter and resentful, especially after his mother fell gravely ill and slipped into an eternal slumber that no one could cure, Louis transformed into a ruthless, cynical, and deeply unstable noble. Throughout the Frostbane Kingdom, he became infamous as the “Mad Prince.”

In a final, desperate bid for power, he plunged into the Dimensional Labyrinth, only to be ambushed by an enemy nation. Powerless to change his fate, he was killed.

But that was not the end for Louis Drakeheart.

Upon death, he awakened the power of Death Loop, allowing him to return to the past after dying. At last, he possessed the ability to reshape his life, one death at a time.

Now, through sheer will and unrelenting struggle, Louis will fight with everything he has to seize the strength needed to change his fate, reclaim his draconic birthright, and save his kingdom from its inevitable downfall at the hands of both Enemy Nations and Horrors beyond the Dimensional Boundary—even if it costs him his sanity as he descends deeper into the Spiral of Madness.

This is the story of Louis Drakeheart and his journey through madness and enlightenment as he claims his true title: the Heir of Ruin, the Bringer of the End.

And... of her, the one that accompanied him through countless regressions, the only witness of all his sacrifices.
