Straightforwardly speaking, this is a case of regression. But it's not your ordinary simple regression like other books. Not at all.

The male lead is the regressor. And not just that, a person that can rewind time at his will because he inherited that magic as emperor 4820 years ago. Yep, you hear that right, he is an old ass motherf*cker. The premise is so interesting because it's not just that he is a regressor. The magic he inherited was accompanied with a curse!!

Said curse invades his head like a headache that is immensely painful; think of glass being shattered or pierced through skull. He is able to rewind time but maximum 10 years, which is why he has lived for 4820 years. And he has never lived over 30 at all because by 30 he would have already killed himself from going insane from the curse, hence he keeps rewinding time.

And it's all because he wants to live like a normal person and stay human. So if he wants to do that he will do whatever it takes so long as it doesn't go against his set of morals.

Our MC, truth be told, is destined to die no matter what causes. ML says she is just unlucky, but I think it's just her fate atp. No matter what she does, consequences are bound to happen, and it's not her dying, it's her 3 children dying on behalf of her without her knowledge. She as well, does not live to 30 because of this. But that's not the point.

This novel is set 10 years after she gets married to her scum husband!! And her scum husband dies!! And she loves her 3 step children like her own!! You don't have to sit through the slow burn of watching the relationships come through between her and her children because in those 10 years it was cultivated and nurtured to this point. Her 3 children also treat her like their own mother, and it's just so nice to read childcare troupes like this because it's so tiring reading the same old nurturing plot that goes through how many chapters.

MC is a mother who lost her own children due to pettiness and schemes in her own house by her now dead husband and maids etc. Even though it's mentioned a lot that they are not blood related, it doesn't feel that way at all. Her back story, her story in of itself, personality, her concerns is just so refreshing to read because she feels so human.

Some might disagree with me but I love the pacing. I always feel regression books are too slow for me, but this is just right! Since MC is destined to die by something always, ML is always rewinding time to stop it since he relies on touching her physically to stop the headaches from happening, and because of this, schemes are revealed, plots are forced to be progressed, and so much has been revealed by chapter 61!! It's so amazing!!
