Chris is a one-armed, third-rate mercenary. He may be unremarkable, but what he lacks in strength he makes up for with an arsenal of life hacks he's learned over time. When his bag of tricks and good luck runs out, though, he plunges to his death―but not before he obtains a priceless Artifact. The mysterious object gives Chris another chance at life, sending him back to his first battle. After dodging the attack that cost him his arm, he realizes he can change his future. Not only does he have knowledge from his previous life, his Artifact helps him grow stronger. With this new-found power, Chris knows exactly what he needs to do: become a mighty soldier and save his country from being devastated by war. **Original Web Novel:** [Munpia](https://novel.munpia.com/137511), [Naver Series](https://series.naver.com/novel/detail.series?productNo=4064464), [KakaoPage](https://page.kakao.com/content/52878082), [Onestory](https://onestory.co.kr/detail/H036381583), [Joara](https://www.joara.com/book/1368717), [RIDI](https://ridibooks.com/books/3228006809), [Bookcube](https://www.bookcube.com/novel/detail.asp?serial_num=se5363), [Mr. Blue](https://www.mrblue.com/novel/jakgaco0047), [Mootoon](https://www.mootoon.co.kr/nov/nov_list.mg?tcode=jsfu), [Anytoon](https://www.anytoon.co.kr/novel/episode/8090) **Official Translations:** [English](https://www.wattpad.com/story/384852552-becoming-the-monarch)
