Regression Fanatic

Lucien Variell is known to the world as the Savior of Humanity-the legendary S-Class knight who ended the most devastating Calamity in history. Songs are sung about his deeds, statues are carved in his honor, and his name stands at the very peak of human history. But the truth is far uglier and known only to him. Lucien knows he did not save the world alone. When the gods abandoned Earth during the forty-first Calamity, only one divine being remained-a compassionate goddess named Personna, who sacrificed her existence and poured her power into Lucien so humanity could survive. In the end, history forgot her completely, leaving Lucien alone to carry both the glory... and the guilt. Years later, living in quiet isolation and drowning his regrets in regression novels, Lucien stumbles upon an artifact left behind by Chronos, the God of Time. Desperate for a chance to undo his countless mistakes, he activates it. And the world rewinds. Lucien awakens years in the past, just before enrolling in the legendary Valstalla Academy, where the greatest knights of the Golden Generation once gathered. But something is terribly wrong. His once peerless talent has been taken from him, the timeline has already begun to diverge, and the one person who made humanity's survival possible-the goddess Personna- is already dead. Now stripped of his greatest advantage and burdened with knowledge of a doomed future, Lucien must navigate the academy, uncover the truth behind the altered timeline, and somehow prepare humanity for a Calamity far worse than the one that nearly destroyed the world. Because this time... Even the gods may not be coming to help.
