Synopsis

Radel Silbert Kreti, the weakest and most despised 8th Prince of the Kreti Empire, lies dying on the cold stone floor of his secluded palace, betrayed and abandoned. As his life slips away, memories of a past life flood his mind—memories of a B-rank hunter from Earth who also met a tragic end after obtaining the Heart of the Troll, a mythical item with regenerative powers.
Faced with death for the second time, Radel is presented with an impossible choice: inherit the Heart of the Troll once more, enduring its brutal side effects, or perish as the forgotten prince. Driven by a burning rage and desperate to change his fate, he accepts the heart, igniting a painful transformation that revives him but pushes his fragile body to its limits.
Reborn with the hunter’s memories and newfound regenerative abilities, Radel must navigate the ruthless politics of the Kreti Empire, where his powerful twin brother, gifted with extraordinary powers, seeks to crush him.

Editor's Note

💡 This is a high-tension survival story masquerading as a "comfortable life" title. Radel, the despised 8th prince, is a man caught between two worlds: the brutal memories of a B-rank Earth hunter and a fragile royal body that is literally being held together by the "Heart of the Troll." Unlike typical OP protagonists, Radel’s power is his greatest curse—every time he regenerates, he endures excruciating pain that pushes him to the brink of insanity. It’s a gritty, underdog tale where the "comfort" is earned through blood, ransom negotiations, and outsmarting a twin brother who is a literal sociopathic prodigy.

Experience Curve

Ch. 1–50 (The Heart's Burden): ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – The Hook. The survival stakes are immediate. The description of the Troll's Heart transformation is visceral, and the MC's transition from a dying prince to a desperate survivor is well-paced.

Ch. 51–120 (Academy & Misunderstandings): ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – The Peak. The story balances intense danger with a "Misunderstanding" trope (reminiscent of Trash of the Count's Family). Characters begin to misinterpret Radel's desperate survival tactics as brilliant, hidden schemes, leading to both comedy and political leverage.

Ch. 121–316+ (The Twin Conflict): ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – The Expansion. The rivalry with his gifted twin brother moves from petty bullying to a high-stakes chess match involving the Empire’s future. The political intrigue deepens, moving beyond the academy walls.

WebNovelDB Review

8 /10
A gripping progression fantasy that succeeds by making every victory feel painful and earned. The Good: The Double-Edged Sword. The regeneration power isn't a "get out of jail free" card. Because it causes immense physical and mental trauma, the MC has to prioritize diplomacy and wit over constant fighting. This makes the tactical "smart" moments feel necessary rather than just a character trait. The Bad: Occasional Convenience. As with most "Misunderstanding" stories, some side characters fall into line a bit too quickly or interpret the MC's actions in exactly the right way to move the plot forward, which can occasionally feel like "plot-guided" logic. For Fans Of: Trash of the Count's Family (Misunderstandings/Fragile MC), The S-Classes That I Raised (Hunter memories/Family trauma), The Beginning After the End (Academy/Royal politics). Not For You If: You want a "Power Level" fantasy where the MC becomes invincible early on. Radel remains vulnerable for a long time, and the story leans heavily into the psychological toll of his situation.
