Slooooooooooooowwwwwwww burn. This is not for the weak, but I have done my utmost best to make it worth the wait. Pls enjoy. Katagiri Sōta never really wanted anything from life — and life, in return, let him keep nothing at all. He died as he lived: an ordinary, broken man, who ultimately mattered not at all. A whole existence that could be packed into boxes and left behind on a Monday. Reborn into the family of a humble shopkeeper in a quiet market town, in a world where Saints part the heavens and Sages bend reality to their will — a world where greatness is carved into legend — he finds himself yet again on the path of mediocrity. Never again, he thought. This time, he wants, with great a passion; an obsession. This time, he refuses to be anything but extraordinary.
