Throughout his 34 years, a man faced bullying, scorn, and oppression, living as a shut-in until a heroic act ended in a tragic accident. However, fate had other plans, and he finds himself reborn in a fantastical realm as Rudeus Greyrat, a baby with a fresh start and loving parents.
With the memories and knowledge of his previous life intact, Rudeus rapidly adjusts to this new world. Possessing an adult’s intellect, he soon reveals an exceptional aptitude for magic, refining his abilities under the guidance of Roxy Migurdia, a skilled mage. Additionally, he learns swordplay from his father, Paul, and forms a deep bond with Sylphiette, a girl his age who becomes his best friend.
Embarking on his second life, Rudeus seizes this chance to overcome his past traumas. As he navigates his new existence, he holds onto the hope of discovering something he missed out on before—love.
