In a space where not a speck of light exists, a man, perhaps a young man aged 21 or 22, slightly overweight, miraculously floats in the middle of the black void. He moves alongside millions, trillions of souls constantly drifting towards a reincarnation pool. Here, their memories would be erased, and they would be sent into another world, born anew as a baby, with a new future akin to the crack of dawn after a long, long night. This process awaits every soul here, but suddenly, a girl appears out of nowhere, standing on the void, gazing at the man who sleeps soundly, seemingly unaware of the impending events.
Earth (2024): Arthur Ceilo walks down the road, immersed in the latest music hits on the popular app Vood. A normal guy, albeit a bit introverted (yes, just a bit), he falls into the category of weebs or commonly known as otaku. Like many, he's an otako, with favorites including One Piece, Naruto, Douluo Dalu, and Marvel/DC universe comics. Currently heading to his part-time job at a convenience store as a cashier, a position he secured after numerous attempts. Engrossed in changing his song and crossing the road, he fails to hear a horn, courtesy of his headphones.
BonkBonkBonk Crash Crash Arthur's point of view: As I was about to change the music, I suddenly found myself airborne across the road. The first thought that crossed my mind was, "What happened?" and then, I landed in the middle of the road, coughing and vomiting blood. I noticed a blood-red lightning strike in the middle of summer, under a clear blue sky devoid of any hint of dark clouds that could have produced lightning.
That was the last thing I remember, and now, I find myself floating in a void without light. Or so I thought; I can see others like me, floating and moving alongside. But they don't all appear human; there are animals, demons, vampires, dragons, and various races. Some are old, some adult, and some children. I suddenly feel pity for the children, hoping they'll contribute something positive to humanity.
As I move alongside these diverse beings, my speed slows down, and I come to a stop in the middle of the road. A flash of bright white light, and I find myself in a pure white room. Two chairs and a table with pastries and two cups of tea are present. I assume one cup is for me. "Sit down," a melodic voice commands. I sit in the opposite chair and look at a beautiful woman with a sweet smile—a young, beautiful woman with long golden hair and a dress that accentuates her feminine curves. I ask, "Hello! You are?" "Juna, Goddess of the Void," she replies. "Why am I here?" I inquire. "You are dead, and that was partly my fault, so I brought you here," she explains.
Realizing my situation, I ask, "So what happens to me now?" "You can have one wish fulfilled, and I will send you to the world you desire in any timeline," she says. "Can you fulfill any one of my wishes?" I confirm. "Yes, now state your wish," she encourages. "I want you to grant me an Infinite Shop system with three tickets that allow me to buy anything without a price. As for the world, send me to my previous world when I was 10 years old," I request. "Okay, but I can only give you two tickets," she compromises. "Fine," I agree. "Then see you again if fates lead us," she concludes.
Suddenly, a whirlpool appears behind me, and I am sucked in, losing consciousness. The last thing I see is the smile of a goddess before I open my eyes in a dilapidated room, significantly improved a year later with funds received from various politicians due to the upcoming elections.
