Prologue

=========

[You have died once again. Your soul is dimming and your spirit progressively dwindling. It would not be wrong if after the soul has rested, you can only die one more time on the battlefield.]

[I see.]

[You do not seem fazed by this information.]

[Although I don't remember any of my previous lives, from what you've stated, I've already died multiple times. Dying one more time seems natural to me now. Also, I don't mind eternally resting after all of what happened out there.]

[Then your soul will be sent back to the outer-rim planets to recuperate once more.]

[Alright.]

[After your soul returns to us via death in the outer-rim world, what is the one thing that you have gained in your previous life that you want to pass down to your new life? You can only pass down one thing, so chose wisely.]

The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

[I, as someone who was born an orphan in the slums of a city, who had average talents that was looked down upon by my peers, and who was condemned to die as cannon fodder in the battlefield by my superiors several times, only have one thing to pass on; and that is my will.]

[I am afraid that would not be possible. Memories from your past life is detrimental to the recovery of the spirit and soul. This includes the will of people.]

[I... I see. Then I don't have anything to pass on.]

[Although you being a below-average mage is true, the wealth and achievements you have accumulated cannot be considered small. The treasures you have can bring envy to even some of the most talented figures across Iseria.]

[No, those treasures should only be meant for the future generations brave enough to seek them. And even if I wanted to take them myself, I wouldn't even be powerful enough to wield even the weakest of magic items. Nevermind my afterlife who would have an even worse talent than me.]

[That would be true. The fact that only you can use the item due to it becoming soulbound would make it even more worthless.]

[I didn't learn any meaningful magic skills either, so other than that, I really have nothing else to pass on other than my will.]

[You seem to hold to that will dearly. Although I did say memories of your former life is detrimental, I never said anything about not being able to pass down a book.]

[What?]

[Though seldomly done as most would rather pass on powerful magical items or skills, it is possible to write down your will and pass it on to yourself in the afterlife. However, it is risky as most reincarnees tend to not believe the stories behind these books.]

[Well, it's the only thing I have to pass down, so there's nothing to lose.]

[I see. Is this your final answer? Once the ritual has been set, there is no turning back.]

[Yes.]

[Then write down your will and come to me once you're done. I ]
