That Time I Got Reincarnated As Myself ? So I Have To Start From Day 1
Ryukard Blackfyre, hero of the world, has done it! After 300 years of battle, he finally defeats the Demon King Zephiroth. Ready to ascend to heaven, he marches up the Stairs of Light with confidence—
Until a tiny 7-year-old-looking goddess stops him and says, “Oi, you’re not worthy of heaven.”
Excuse me, what?
Turns out, Ryukard’s soul is in a weird spot. He’s not evil enough for hell, not good enough for heaven, and apparently, being a hero doesn’t count for much in the grand scheme of things. His punishment? Forced reincarnation.
Even worse? He doesn’t get to choose a new life, a new world, or new powers. Astraia, the menace of a goddess, just dumps him right back into the mortal world—AS HIMSELF.
Now, he’s a baby again, with all his past memories, and Zephiroth is having a blast in hell with his demon wives.
Truly, this is suffering.
But this time, Ryukard has only one goal—end this life as fast as possible, escape the cycle, and finally rest in peace in heaven. No more battles, no more hero stuff. Just eternal, well-deserved sleep.
Too bad fate (and his overly affectionate parents) have other plans.
