Dean must make use of his cheat. The Rewind System to his advantage. Making use of his unique time rewind ability, Dean must outsmart his enemies, uncover the secret and lores behind the long lost epochs and most importantly.... Figure out the mystery behind his lost memories. Warning/ What to Expect: 1) Psychological and Supernatural Horror 2) Supernatural Thriller 3) Mind-blowing action scenes and chase scenes. 4) Most realistic character interactions. 5) The first ten chapters of this book will focus on the psychological and emotional effects of the return by death ability on the Mc. So don't expect the Mc to go all mighty and all-powerful and immediately accept such an ability like most cliche novels u might be used to. Mc seems to be just like any ordinary human thrown in the midst of supernatural horror, forces and horrifying supernatural creatures. Therefore the first ten chapters will slowly delve into his mind and psychology. How he breaks and forges himself again and again. If you are looking for a novel whereby the main character doesn't go through any character development or doesn't seem realistic enough when faced with such dangers. Then this novel isn't for you. And I will advise against reading it. And even if you aren't really a lover of psychological and supernatural horror. Read the first ten chapters, and you will know why this novel has the potential to be on par with the likes of Shadow Slave or Advent of the Three Major Calamities by Entrail. Also, before the whole Awakening and Shii, Mc is stuck in what seems to be a cursed and wretched land to him. How he got there. He doesn't know. Just that he's doing everything he can to leave there. And all I can say to those reading this novel because of the whole Awakening shii and all that is to be patient. This novel will be quite slow paced yet fast paced. Read to know what I meant by that. so what are you still doing here reading this Dive into the novel and come back to thank me!!

Author's Notes: (I was originally going to upload this book to Kindle and stuff but never finished it since the plans for this series are long to write. I do have the beginning written so I'm going to upload that. I'll try to write as much as I can but I procrastinate a lot and I got school. I'll be uploading the chapters I already wrote but after that, I'll be uploading mini chapters. Pray that I do because the people that know me knows that I take months to finish a chapter. Luckily with Webnovel, I can upload bit by bit of these chapters. Once I get to a certain point, I'll probably stop uploading till I finish the final climax of the book then I'll mass drop to prevent people from stealing my work. I'll also drop it on Kindle and iBook to make it cheaper for you guys. Aight that's enough with the author's notes since it's getting too long. I hope you guys enjoy this book as much as I enjoy writing it.)

DISCLAIMER: I am currently revising and rewriting this novel from scratch. As long as this disclaimer is still here, it means it's still being revised. It is exclusively only being polished here on Webnovel. So if you read it on another site (that stole from here), then those sites will only have the outdated versions. Latest revision: October 2024 ----- Li Tian is the hottest young male artist within the South of Huaxia. With his stunning good looks and sultry deep voice, people all around can’t help but swoon. Not to mention being a member of the renowned Li Family and born with a silver spoon, a deep arrogance was ingrained into his bones. Hardly a likable character, but hey, he is THE Li Tian. And life is great for our adorable Tian Tian. Unfortunately, not just readers dislike our arrogant ML. Included in his filthy rich lifestyle is a sea full of sharks that just can’t wait for the moment he bleeds a little. Thus he needs to find a way to get away from it all. A way to blend in with the crowd and be... someone else. Obviously with his obnoxious attitude, being low profile and reigning in his tongue is ANYTHING but easy... _______________________________ This is a prologue to Undercover Superstar: A Song of Pyros and Snowflakes Thus I plan on finishing it as soon as possible!
