A guy whose biggest achievement was surviving one more day in a world that never gave a damn about him.Bullied, humiliated, betrayed; he’d stopped believing in dreams, people, or even himself. That is, until the day a goddess smiled as he died.Now, he's been selected by the Goddess of Mischief to become a Dimensional Journeyman—a wanderer across chaotic worlds filled with monsters, magic, and madness.Armed with only a random Aspect and the ability to choose his starting world, Henry’s second life begins with a twisted gift:He must pick one of five wildly different routes, each more insane than the last.1. Dual Leveling in the Apocalypse: A ravaged Earth where monsters reign and only those who can level twice can hope to survive.2. Heaven's Descent: Gods descend, civilizations crumble, and faith becomes a weapon.3. Rebirth: Dual Cultivator: In a lust-fueled cultivation realm, power and passion go hand in hand.4. Combat Slave Harem: A brutal world ruled by strength and conquest. The more you dominate, the stronger you become.5. Re: Vampire and Dragon: A war-torn fantasy where immortals rule, and only forbidden bloodlines can challenge fate.But is this truly a second chance... or just another cruel joke?With no one to trust, memories soaked in pain, and a goddess who clearly enjoys watching him squirm, Henry will have to carve his own path in worlds more twisted than fiction.Revenge, power, women, freedom, purpose; whatever it is he seeks, he’ll have to earn it.Because this time, the fate destiny won't break him.This time… he’ll break free from his destiny.---Tags: Isekai, Antihero Protagonist, Dark Fantasy, Slave Harem (Gradual), Revenge, Leveling Systems, Multiple Worlds, Emotional Trauma, Ruthless MC, Psychological Growth, NSFW (After 20)---If You're a reader who enjoy brutal isekai with emotional depth, morally grey decisions, and worlds that push both power and sanity to the limit.
