It was a freak accident. Someone ran the light at an intersection and before I knew it... my world turned black. But I didn't die then. Instead, I was forced to lament and regret over all of my failures. Lament about how this so-called genius was lower than dirt even at the very end.
And that should have been it. After my consciousness faded, I should have disappeared.
But I woke up.
A different world, another life. A fresh start.
This time, for sure...!

My bad habit kicked in. I've been rereading and watching Mushoku Tensei recently and got the itch to write this. Kind of self-insert, but not really. Extremely self-indulgent though, so if things don't make too much sense... er, sorry in advance?

I'm also trying putting this out on Webnovel too to see how that works, though updates there will be slower than here.
You know it's a good fanfic, when you prefer it over the original, and that is exactly the case here.
I have always been a fan of Mushuko Tensei, and always will be, but I can't say I am a big fan of the perverted, some times stupid MC. I just prefer a more normal MC, and this is exactly that combined with the great story of Mushuko Tensei and an original twist.
Not to mention the writing. The writing is really good and Grammar is great. Pacing does leave a little bit to be desired though. Some time skips skip over what seem to be important story bits.
Overall great read, love rereading it, can't wait for more, and check out the other novels by HVG as well. Returning Transcendent and VIMS are my top favorites along with this.

This fic is a MASTERPIECE. I highly recommend anyone with even a slight interest in Mushoku Tensei fics to read this. The attention to detail in fleshing characters out and how they would be/act in this variation of the world is amazing. Obviously, it’s not perfect (nothing can ever be perfect), but it is so so so close to that. I have never had so much fun with a work of writing before I can’t express how much of a joy it has been reading the chapters.

Let's just say the novel has been, actually fairly realistic with the characters the greatest thing I'd say is that you can read the characters change in their personalities with the situations and time. The main thing I'd say is that it handled the reincarnation extremely well, someone who is a child yet an adult and how he transitions from a civilian in a fairly peaceful world to a medival fantasy one. And no, unlike what one review said, Rudy isn't an Adult falling for 7 year olds thanks to the novel's setting changing his character.
To be honest this is more of a story on the characters and how a fairly overpowered Rudy embarks on his new life in the six faced world so don't expect too much action but a rather laid back story on the personalities surrounding him.

This feels like a meta-NTR where this author cuckolded the original works author. I'm not saying its bad I rated it 4 because its well polished, the characters are well-lived but that -1 is because I really loved the original work and it feels like I'm cheating on it while reading this.
