How to Live as a Fallen Genius

“You really didn’t notice Jaeeon-hyung was acting strange?”

Once hailed as a ‘genius of the century’ and later remembered as the hero who saved humanity in the distant future—Ki Jaeeon.

But in the process, he lost everything and everyone dear to him. In the end, he lost even the will to live.

Seeking peace through death, he chose to end it all—

Only to wake up… in the past.

“If even the Ki family is afflicted by this curse, then this is serious!”

Rumors snowballed as time went on.

The more Jaeeon refused meals and sobbed under the covers, the more he screamed through sleepless nights—

The more anxious everyone around him became.

[What kind of curse is this?!]

Even beyond the Ki household, the Exorcist Association began to stir.

Eventually, Ki Taeho, the head of the Ki family, came to believe that a curse far beyond their power had befallen his second son—

So he decided to send Jaeeon to Seoul, where the best exorcists were said to reside.

Unfortunately, Jaeeon’s condition wasn’t due to some unfathomable curse.

That was a completely misguided assumption.

The truth lay elsewhere.

[PTSD]

A psychological illness known as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Yes—he was a man wounded.

“I came back.”

A survivor returning from an utterly devastated future.

He was the tragic hero.

The strongest exorcist—Ki Jaeeon.
