With my extraordinary talent, I reached the top faster than I ever imagined. But why did it feel so empty? I had always been adventuring alone, without a party, without comrades, without the fun moments an adventurer should have.

Sigh… if only I could live my life over again… If only I could reincarnate… I would definitely fall in love and not waste my life anymore… And as I took my last breath— My wish came true.
