About this story
Nerez no longer remembers the name he had when he was just an ordinary human on Earth. It has been far too long since a literal date with destiny, or rather with the Goddess of Fate, condemned him to wander the sea of souls through a thousand different lives.
All he wanted now was to escape the endless cycle of reincarnation and enjoy one peaceful last life. But just when freedom seemed within reach, he found himself in the midst of a divine battle royale for a newborn world.
Can the nascent god of death find peace and tranquility in immortality? Or will his new domain, servants, and the ever-troublesome mortals make his life impossible?
And even now, the looming shadow of the one who cursed him in the first place still lingers. But was it really a curse? Perhaps the Goddess of Fate had plans of her own...
