Adamus_Auguste

"In order to survive the future great war, we must take drastic measures. We need to summon warriors and train them before time runs out." 

By favorable vote of an exceptional world summit composed of kings, emperors, and ancient mages, millions of earthlings reincarnated into an alien, medieval world governed by swords and magic to save its prophesied doom. 

Chained to their rules, slaves of their whims, they forgot about their civilised lives. Was it a curse or the last blessing from their original world?  

However, one reincarnation failed to follow the summoning—an anomaly born in error… or by design.
Thrust into a rotting house in a ghostly body, Adam found himself bound to a wailing baby: the body he should have reincarnated into. Confused and worried by the remarks of his snarky system about his heavily damaged soul, he began his years-long quest to recover his body. 

Armed with his mind, he'll educate the baby, watch him turn into a good youth, and weave relationships with this world's magical natives, learning their crafts and skills. However, the moment to choose loomed: Would he suffer as a ghost until he found an alternative that might not exist, or reclaim his life at the cost of the boy’s?

He was far from imagining how dangerous this world full of possibilities could be, prompting him to question everything he knew... Including himself, his sanity, and the hands that intentionally blurred this world's history.

I Refused To Be Reincarnated

Julius's breath caught in his throat as Adam's eyes—those brilliant orbs that had blazed with otherworldly fire—suddenly dimmed like dying stars. His brother's consciousness vanished into whatever realm claimed him, leaving only inert mist behind.

The shift struck Julius like a physical blow. One moment, Adam had been present, vital, scheming; the next, he was little more than a breathing statue. The weight of solitude crashed down upon Julius's shoulders with crushing finality.

"Are you alright, Julius?" Asha's voice snapped him from his thoughts.

She studied his face with merchant's precision, cataloguing the rapid transformation from joy to bewilderment to something approaching despair. His expressions shifted like weather patterns across a storm-torn sky.

"I am," Julius managed, his smile tasting of ash and bitter truths.
