That time the Modern Man reincarnated as a prince in the Pagan Empire

Jason, a modern man beset by a cascade of personal tragedies, finds his life in tatters after the political upheaval of a military junta in his country. Losing his job, home, and, most painfully, his family, he succumbs to despair. In a moment of profound grief, he attempts to end his life, only to be given a second chance by a mysterious force that transports him to a vastly different world. Jason awakens in the Pagan Empire during its twilight years, reincarnated as Prince Aung, a young royal in a kingdom teetering on the brink of collapse under the rule of its last tyrant king. With memories of his past life intact and a magical system that offers guidance and power, Jason must navigate through a labyrinth of ancient magic, political intrigue, and cultural conflicts. Tasked with defending the kingdom against internal rebellions and external threats, Jason's journey is not just about survival but about transformation. He uses his modern knowledge to initiate reforms while also learning the arcane arts that pervade this new world. Alongside allies including Aye, a wise and powerful mage, Jason must unite the kingdom's diverse races and religions to avert its destruction. As he adapts to his role as a prince and a leader, Jason's quest expands beyond the empire's borders. The prophecy found in the ancient Book of Shadows hints at his destiny not only to save but to rule the world. Faced with the challenge of bringing peace and justice to a fractured land, Jason must decide what kind of king he wants to be. Through battles, alliances, and betrayals, Jason’s story is a blend of historical fantasy and epic adventure, exploring themes of destiny, power, and redemption. Will he be able to forge a new empire from the ashes of the old, or will his efforts be lost to the annals of time?

However, fate played an extremely cruel joke on him, and a sudden accident brought his life to an abrupt end. When Ye Chen regained consciousness again, he found himself miraculously reborn and thrown back sixty years ago. The world before his eyes was both strange and familiar. The dilapidated streets and simple houses all told of the poverty and backwardness of that era. And he himself was no longer the glorious business magnate but a despised, penniless gambler. His wife, the woman who had once accompanied him through thick and thin, was now full of disappointment and determination, only begging him to sign the divorce papers to completely break free from this painful marriage. His father-in-law and mother-in-law hated him to the core. The looks they gave him seemed as if they wanted to devour him alive, wishing he could vanish from this world and never appear in their lives again. What was worse, those loan sharks who lent money at exorbitant interest rates were like wolves, closely watching him and constantly issuing threatening ultimatums for him to pay back the money.

But Ye Chen, with his wisdom and courage, skillfully resolved one crisis after another and instead turned the attacks of his opponents into the driving force for his progress. In the game with various forces, Ye Chen gradually built a business empire that was unrivaled in the world. His enterprises spread all over the world, providing employment opportunities for countless people and promoting the development of the global economy. And he himself, from a despised gambler, had become a respected business legend. Finally, standing at the top of his business empire, Ye Chen looked back on the past with mixed feelings.
