Chapter 1 - Goddess's Order

"I'm still alive? Or dead."

"It's too dark, I can't see anything. My body feels cold, what is this? Water? I seem to have died."

"But why? I'm too short, I'm not even married at all. Erm.. let alone get married, I've never been close to a woman."

"My life has been bad luck, and now it's over."

Seen the body of a man who began to sink into the water that has no bottom, he was talking to himself wondering whether he was still alive or not. Slowly the man began to close his eyes and kept sinking deeper and deeper.

But suddenly a very bright light appeared in front of him making him slightly open his eyes, something grabbed his hand and pulled him quickly.

When he realized that the man had fully opened his eyes and was quite surprised by what he saw around him, he stood and turned around in amazement at the place where he stood. Such a beautiful and majestic place, it seemed that he was alone there.

"Where is this? Am I dead already? Is this heaven? Is it okay if I die and then enter heaven easily?"

"No, this is not heaven," said a woman who suddenly appeared in front of him.

A beautiful goddess with long white hair adorned with several gold-colored ties, blue eyes and an asterisk on her forehead. He came from the shard of light that shaped him and sat on the throne chair to welcome the man.

"Emm.. can you explain what's going on right now?" asked the man, quite confused because someone suddenly appeared.

"I invite your dead spirit. Oh yes I am a goddess," the woman replied with a smile.

"What goddess?! Can you tell me why I was summoned here?"

"You have two choices. One, whiten your soul and be reborn as a stranger. All your memories disappear and you become a different person."

"Wait a minute, in other words the current me is going to die?"

"Yahh.. actually you are already dead, and one more thing. Reincarnated in another world and received my orders, in exchange you can keep your current memories. By retaining your knowledge and experience, you can enjoy a new life."

"In other words, I will continue this life?"

"Don't you think this is an attractive offer?" said the goddess with a smile.

"Is it true that people who have died can continue to live again? Then regarding your order, what should I do?"

"Of course, it seems you quite understand what I mean, I'm glad the conversation is progressing quickly. Looks like I chose the right spirit, you will be transferred to a fantasy world that has swords and magic."

"A world with swords and magic? Is there really such a place?" asked the man, slightly surprised.

"Yes of course there is and there you have to kill the prince."

"Wait a minute, so this is reincarnation huh, it's hard to believe," said the man in a tone that wasn't sure.

"Usually dead human souls are treated like stained items and then immediately cleaned and recycled. The life that has been lived until now is only pretending," said the goddess.

Suddenly the goddess disappeared into a shard of light and the place changed slightly with two chairs and a table. The goddess reappeared and was seen sitting while pouring drinks into the two cups in front of her. The man then walked over and sat in front of the goddess.

"That's roughly how I consider the previous death, even if reborn the memory is lost, the previous personality will become empty," said the man while looking at the goddess before him.

"So, being able to reincarnate in another world with the memories and personality of a previous life, you are really lucky. It's like finishing an adventure in an RPG game, then continuing to play another RPG. It's a pity to refuse this, right?" asked the goddess with a smile and drank a cup of tea in front of her.

The man seemed to take a cup of tea in front of him, then drank it slowly while thinking a little. "Hmm.. then tell about the target to be killed."

"Does that mean you accept this request?" asked the goddess while removing the food through her magic just by raising her index finger.

"I'm already dead, so if there's a definite purpose for when I come back to life, it might be a much better thing than my previous life."

"Of course you will have a clear goal, as long as you can do this I will not care about anything else. So once again I will explain the request," said the goddess by pointing her index finger to the man's forehead.

"You will be reincarnated in a fantasy world that has swords and magic, and will kill the prince of that world. The deadline is 18 years after you are reborn," said the goddess again explaining her previous request.

From the forefinger of the goddess appeared a ball of white-purple energy and gave a hint of what magic was like straight into the man's brain, the man reflexively closed his eyes and an image of magic appeared in front of him.

"This is how the world works, what does magic mean in that world? Knowledge of the culture, technical level and heroes of that era," the goddess explained slightly and gave the man a little description of magic.

"This is very different from the world I lived in before, the civilization is like somewhere between the middle ages and the modern period. The biggest difference is the existence of magic, and some humans have physical abilities that far surpass ours," said the man trying to understand the world in which he would be reborn.

Suddenly the image given by the goddess disappeared again and the ball of energy that appeared from the goddess's index finger also disappeared, the two of them seemed to be sitting the same as before.

The man opened his eyes again. "I see, I understand the new world a little. It seems that you mean the prince is an important person, why should he be killed?"

The goddess began to pour the tea back into the cup belonging to the two of them and began to explain again. "16 years after you are reincarnated, the prince will defeat the demon lord and save the world. But after that, the world will be in chaos by using the prince's power. Then 18 years later, the world will be destroyed. So, please kill the prince as soon as possible."

"According to the knowledge I just received, human abilities have limits. But the prince is special and has abilities that exceed humans, in other words I have to kill a monster that has transcendent power with limited power," said the man while closing his eyes and trying to understand what his goal would be.

"The reason why I chose you is not a warrior, knight or mage but someone like you who is quite a genius in carrying out missions," said the goddess with a gaze filled with trust towards the man in front of her.

"Well, if only I could kill me," said the man casually.

"I really didn't choose the wrong spirit, you are so confident."
