If anyone ever asked what Kise Ryota's life was like the answer would always be, 'It was a hectic one.'
With all the complicated family drama excluded his love life was no better. The first girl he ever fell for, hated him for his love. Then came the period of sadness and loneliness which quickly lead to him being a playboy. Quite a cliche, some might add but that was it. That was his love life, hopping from one girl to another, afraid of ever falling in love as he didn't want to hurt the other party. But his life suddenly came to a halt after his mother died of sudden heart failure and now with his memories back, he had more things to take care of.
That was the other unusual part of his life, his memories. Ryota felt that the devil had surely tricked him after all, he didn't feel any different. For all he knew, he was still just a 15-year-old who was burdened with memories of someone he didn't know. With the only proof being his eyes and the app on his phone, there was nothing else other than that. He felt like the devil didn't really transfer his soul but just transfer his memories, cause, unlike the novels he read in the past. He didn't feel normal and used to the memories at all.

17 days 8 hours 9 minutes and 6 seconds remaining-
Ryota woke up in the middle of nowhere, as he looked around at the blank white space.
'Am I dead or am I dreaming?' he questioned himself when a sudden voice came from behind making him jump.
"You're dreaming, of course."
"Who are you?" Ryota asked looking at the blonde handsome guy in front of him, "And did you just read my thoughts?"
"I did. This is my realm, after all." The man replied, "I am Michael, the angel from above."
"Wait, so you're like 'The Michael'."
"Yes." Michael nodded, "Well, I don't have much time to waste so I'll get straight to the point. You must know what your mission is already and I am here to help you. You see, Heaven has been always looking at you and they appreciate your efforts, so they decided to send me here for you."
"How?"
"I can't give you any powers, you're thinking of right now." Michael said, "In fact, I am not even a physical manifestation."
Michael said as he passed his hands right through Ryota's like a ghost.
"I know you're disappointed but Heaven can't help you through direct methods and sending me is the least they can do." Michael continued, "What I can help you with is guidance. I've heard you've picked up a sword as a weapon of your choice so I shall guide you in the way of the sword."
"But isn't this just a dream?" Ryota asked, "I mean, will it really help me in the real world."
"Your soul will remember the training and your body will just flow like its supposed to." Michael said, "You just need to make sure, your body is strong enough to withstand all of it."
"I am ready," Ryota said as he agreed after all, at this point even a little bit of help would be a lot of help.
"Good." Michael said, "So the first thing we're going to do is to learn from the basics, and that is to clear your head. It is easier said than done, but in a battle being clear-headed is the most important thing. Let no distraction, no voice stop you from getting what you want, after all, a little bit of slip up will all it take for you to end up losing your life."
"So what do I do?"
"Sit down in any comfortable position, you like and let it all be silence in this room." Michael said, "Remember that this state has to be in your control. Like a switch you should be able to turn it off and on."
Ryota nodded as he sat normally taking deep breaths, hoping to calm down. Time passed slowly as it felt it already had been at least an hour.
"You're good at controlling your thoughts but I can see that your heart is in turmoil. Your inner-voice seems to be taking control over you." Michael said, "Don't let it get the best of you."
An unknown amount of time passed, the room was dead silent to the point where Ryota could even hear his heartbeat. The best way to clear your head was to completely empty it. Like the point where you are just about to sleep and you feel your head clear as you think of nothing.
"You did well for your first time." Michael said, "We will continue this tomorrow."
"Wait so this is it?" Ryota asked, "I understand that clearing my head is important but wouldn't it be better for you to teach me about cutting through things more effectively."
"You'll soon see the difference." Michael said not paying much attention to the second part of his sentence, "This is all I am going to teach you until you master it and then we can move on to the cutting part."
Michael disappeared and before he could say or do anything his vision blurred and when he opened his eyes again he was back in his bed.
"So much for an angel teaching you." Ryota complained waking up as he prepared for school again.

"Hiyama-san, can I have a talk with you?"
"Onodera-san?" Akane who had just arrived in class looked over at Onodera who was intently looking at her, "What is it?"
"Do you like Ryota-kun?"
"Ry-Ryota-kun?" Akane said with a sudden questioning gaze, "You two are already on the first name basis?"
"It's not like what you think." Onodera said blushing, "We're good friends, that's all."
"Is that so." Akane said nodding as she blushed a little as she began playing around with her fingers, "Um, why are you asking me if I like Kise-kun?"

Author here,
Hey! It looks like the trolling has already begun, so I'd really appreciate it if you guys go and rate the fic. Your support is much appreciated.
Also, currently, I don't really have a proper release schedule but I will try to post two chapters on the daily at least.
And I'd also like to clear out a few things-
-This fic is obviously a harem one, after all it's a multiverse traveling fic.
-I'd like to focus on things like relation and friendship as well, than just complete romance as I find the mc who has like 20 girls pushing him around kinda boring and repetitive.
-I haven't really figured out all the harem member, so I can't say the exact number as well.
