Regressing As The Reincarnated Bastard Of The Sword Clan (Korean: 검술명가 서자의 회귀) is a high-octane "Regression" and "Revenge" manhwa/web novel written by Nok-A and illustrated by Gom-Guk. It shares a similar thematic DNA with The Swordmaster's Son and Standard of Reincarnation but focuses more heavily on the raw brutality of martial growth and a protagonist who is willing to burn everything down to reach the top.

The story follows Raon Zieghart, who was born as a "failure" and a bastard of the prestigious Zieghart family. In his first life, he was kidnapped and spent his years as a dog of the shadows—an assassin forced to do the dirty work of a cruel organization. After a life of misery and a tragic death, Raon finds himself back in time, reincarnated as an infant within the Zieghart clan. With the memories of a master assassin and a burning desire for revenge against both the Ziegharts who abandoned him and the organization that enslaved him, Raon begins his climb to power.
