In another world, everything seemed to going fine for (Y/N) until an event sent his situation spiraling downwards. Just before the sweet release of death, he is visited by an old friend as well as the same goddess that brought him to this world.
It was a stormy day during this fateful encounter. Amidst the remains of a great battle were a group of shadowy figures that held people captive beneath their feet. Unfortunately, the rest that have been captured were already unconscious while you were the last one struggling to escape.
Everything that has happened was the result of a standard quest that had gone terribly wrong. If it weren't for the fact that the demon king's generals arrived when they did, then you would already be returning home to your fiancé without so much as a scratch. However, you were covered in many injuries as well as the fact that a blade impaled your shoulder straight to the ground in order to keep you pinned.
???: Take them back to the nearest castle. They'll be useful subjects for our lord's experiment... Especially this one.
Your heart sank as the headless figure picked up the woman that was underneath his foot. Of course, she was unconscious but you were unable to contain your anger as you struggled in your position. All of your efforts were futile since the blade that kept you pinned to the ground never budged an inch.
???: Struggle all you like. It won't make any difference once we've arrived.
The laughter from the headless figure angered you even more however, you were unable to fight back. All you were able to do was let a few tears loose as a few of your friends were carried away while the blade was ripped away from your body. You instinctively reacted and let out a pained scream regardless of your low stamina.
Soothing voice: *whisper* I'm so sorry.....
???: Drag that one back, the rest won't survive even if we drag them back.
You were unable to determine the source of the strange voice however, you felt a pair of soft hands grab yours in order to literally drag you away. Eventually, you fell unconscious as the overwhelming pain was too much for you to bear.
Present Time
Your eyes quickly shot open from the nightmare as you quickly returned to the current world. The sky slowly began to light as the run was barely rising.
(Y/N): *in thought* I swear... Take care of one thing that's in my mind and another one pops up.
You shook your head to regain your senses and decided to be the first to rise from the straw bed. Aqua and Kazuma were still asleep so you moved in silence to change your clothes, grab your gear, and walk outside of the barn.
(Y/N): I really don't like how this dream keeps haunting me...*yawns* Still...
After some walking, you eventually arrived at the guild and took a seat inside. Since it was still early in the morning, there weren't any adventurers present and Luna was one of the first to greet you. You waved back as she smiled in return before continuing to finish setting up for the day.
You brought fourth your guild card and a small wave a regret set in as your level had barely progressed since resetting.
(Y/N): ... Probably should have hunted down that asshole before I thought about starting all over... Nothing else I can do now since it was a heat of the moment thing... I kept all of my skills but I can't even use most of them due to level requirements and I'm stuck under one class.
Female Voice: Woah... How did you get so many skills at your level?
The voice startled you since you were lost in thought before turning to greet the young arch wizard, Megumin.
