"Edward... Edward... wake up, Edward." A soft, comforting voice entered his ear, accompanied by the gentle touch of a hand on his head, gradually coaxing his eyes open.

"Hmm... Headache..." Edward spoke with blurred vision, seeing only the blur of what seemed to be another person.

"Oh... so there were repercussions? Sorry... let me take care of that." After the voice, which seemed to envelop Edward in a warm embrace, a small golden light appeared, covering his entire field of vision.

"There, everything should be fine now... So, how are you feeling?" The feminine voice inquired, and at that moment, Edward felt that his body was better than ever, even though it puzzled him. However, that sensation disappeared before he could say anything.

"I'm great," Edward said, eyes still closed; the golden light forced him to open them. But as he began to open them, the first sight he had made him immediately think he was dreaming.

At that very moment, his head was resting on the lap of a beautiful woman with silver hair and golden eyes. Her clothing seemed to be from ancient Greece, with only one strap on the right shoulder and small red ornaments throughout.

"Pufff... What's wrong with you? Why do you seem petrified?" The feminine voice spoke, bringing her hand to her mouth. But after a few seconds, her eyes flickered, and she spoke with concern, "Are you really okay? Did I do something wrong? Did I use the healing spell for too long, causing a side effect?"

"What? Spell? What are you talking about?" Edward returned to normal, only remembering the woman's last words.

"Awawawa, I forgot to tell you, right? Hehehe... well," the woman made an X with her fingers, continuing, "you died."

"Ah... I see. I thought I was dreaming... wait, what? I died? What the hell? How did that happen?" Edward spoke; his head was spinning, and nothing made sense at the moment, not even the place he was in, which seemed like outer space, but he could breathe.

"And so... Let me explain... you, well... you..." The woman tried to calm Edward, but his thoughts made her totally confused.

"Ah! Wait! I know, I'm in one of those projection rooms, right? Now it makes sense, after all, how can I be dead if I'm breathing?" Edward spoke with a smile, pointing his finger up, touching the woman's face as she looked at him seriously.

"No! Edward, you're definitely dead, and the cause was the bus, so now you're in my domain. My name is Litty, and now I have a request for you." Litty held Edward's finger, lowering it, then bringing her hand to his forehead.

"Don't say anything... Not now... I can't force you to do this, so I'm asking you. But if you don't want to, you'll be reincarnated again in your world." It was at this moment, hearing what Litty was saying, that Edward gave a smile.

"It seems you already understand... great. But I need to do it verbally, or it will be ineffective. Edward, will you be my warrior and save the world, which has only destruction in its future?" Litty held both of Edward's hands, bringing them close to her mouth, waiting for his response.

"But, of course, just don't forget to give me a large amount of mana, as much as possible, and this future wouldn't exist." Edward spoke with total confidence because, for him, what would happen from now on was obvious.

"Thank you for accepting my selfish request. I swear I will take you back to your original world when you complete your mission and give you the most prosperous of lives as a reward." Litty kissed Edward's hand, and his whole body seemed to instantly dive into a hot spring. When it ended, Litty pulled away.

"You've been granted the blessing of mana."

"Great, I can already feel it. I don't know what kind of thing is about to terrorize that world, but it's going to have a tough time..." Edward spoke, receiving an excited smile from Litty, who was about to say something but before that, Edward raised his hand, saying, "Before you send me to the other world, you know that thing about sending me back to my world? Forget it, I'm already dead, So I'll stay in this one, and it's fine."

"Hmmm... Are you sure?" Litty looked confused. "That's not what the other gods told me. They always say that you all seek to return as soon as possible. But if you want to, okay."

Edward stood up with a smile spreading across his face, saying, "I've never been more sure than I am now. Just send me to the other world."

Litty clasped her hands, standing up. She walked over to Edward, giving him a kiss on the cheek, saying, "May luck be with you, future great mage Edward Sivian Brien."

"Hahahaha, so I'll keep the same name? I like it." After saying this, Edward's body disappeared.

After a few seconds passed, and Litty confirmed that Edward had arrived safely in the other world, she sighed in relief, sitting on the floor. "Ah... finally done. Hehehe, it looks like I hit the jackpot. He doesn't even want to go back, so I don't even need to keep an eye on him, just wait for the notification that he saved the world."

Litty stood up, stretching and yawning. "Now that I have free time thanks to him, what can I do? Oh, I know, I'll finish that drama I started today. That bitch will be exposed."

Nineteen years passed in the world where Edward was reincarnated.

"I hope he's here." Edward spoke, pressing his fingers against a huge red wooden door with various carvings covered in pure gold. It took only three seconds; the sound of cracking emerged, and the door shattered into pieces.
