Protagonist?Antagonist? I Reject Both

In "Protagonist?Antagonist? I Reject Both," Leon’s life was irrevocably altered at five when his parents were murdered before his eyes, the perpetrators escaping justice. By twenty-four, he had become a psychopathic mass murderer, dispensing brutal vengeance upon criminals and finally killing those responsible for his parents' deaths. Yet, revenge brought no peace, only an overwhelming emptiness that extinguished his will to live. Facing imminent capture, he chose suicide, only to be unexpectedly chosen by a Deity and transported to a world populated by the characters of urban cultivation novels. He awakens in the body of a man whose life is a cruel jest of fate. His mother remarried after divorcing his father, his fiancée was stolen, a girl he loved was revealed as his step-sister and already engaged, and his stepmother cast him out, freezing his assets. Overwhelmed by these misfortunes, Leon’s sanity shatters. Rejecting peace and embracing his darkness, he vows to dominate this new world, crushing the privileged "children of heaven" and destined villains on his ascent.
