Everyone have a regret in their life. I also have one in my life.
Whatever or how many regrets you may have. The biggest of them is probably related to something called fate.
Yeah. People may call me idiot. Madman. But still I want to do it, my regrets, I want to fulfill them.
What regrets do I have you ask?
For one I want to live a life full of fantasy. Yeah I am kind of evil in that.
Selfish, someone who wants to deny the reality. Lust after woman, gulatony after food, status, wealth. Lazy but still I want it all. I want to have pride for myself.
What was I dreaming? A love life? Didn't get any girl who will accept me as I was.
A way for my parents to have pride on me? Didn't get that. I was never in the roll number 1 to 25. Even after madhyamik when I got star mark. I was relieved more than happy. Cause I thought finnally it's time to get relax.
Why not? I get a phone at that time. Covid start too. Then I was introduced to anime world. Manga, novel, webnovel, manhwa, manhua, Chinese novel, fanfiction.
Then I dream to create a anime from my ideas. But I come to know I need money. To gain money I try to write novel. But I was just a noob. Life is hell for humans like me. Lazy, fatty, no discipline, no rule.
Still I didn't give up. Life goes on. I tried to take earths in 12. But my parents want me to take science. Then I totally skip 12 and goes to do diploma in cst. Study from home for covid.
I still wish that covid had stayed. Although that time I don't have any care about that. But if covid had stayed then I won't need to go college frequently and maybe I have done my novel better.
Well that's a excuse. Cause I was probably lazy.
I was probably broken. A boy who dream to have a true partner in life, when he faced the reality. He tried to refuse it.
I couldn't even do the anime training in cst. Cause in our syllabus it was removed. Yeah. For the dream I choose the subject, the dream was removed.
For first time I get the thought if I could have written my fate. If I could have gotten something magical that will help me goes in another reality I like. That's a regret. A big one. A huge one.
Life didn't stop. It continues.
I completed my diploma. Then I tried to get a job. Although I still believed that my story will get a contract and I will not have to do any job. But still..
Well I didn't get any. No I did get one. But before final interview it blocked us.
I tried to make a website with the help of ai. So that I can earn through ads. I didn't know any backend. So instead of learning backend, I take a friend who said he knew it. But till now we couldn't have completed the website. I already have given up.
Year passed.
My grandfather, the father of my mother, fall ill. I respected him cause he knows many mythological stories. I goes to hospital to see him. But something more unexpected happened. My uncle, brother of my mother, tell me to go to work with him.
I thought maybe I will get some fresh air, some relaxation, some money. But everything was just a dream. Well universe was telling me not to go there many times in many ways. But I couldn't understand or I just refused to believe it.
But yeah. People are like crabs. No one can watch younger generation go up. Well whatever. I just want to erase that memory from my mind.
Still I didn't get much money. For 2 months I get 1500 rupees. But what I feel in that trip, this money can't buy it. Those horrible experience, this money can't heal them.
Well. Durga Puja was up. And in a blink of eyes I lost all my money.
So I started again. My webnovel. But now I need more. Cause I need to do btech. I also want to do buisness. So I can get money to do the anime I dreamt.
All now everything is a regret.
I couldn't even fulfill any of them. My dreams. I just wanted a normal life. A loving wife. Money, car. A loving family.
Well from my childhood.. no even before my birth my wishes was crushed under someone's foot. That someone is probably the fate.
Today too I was going to do the same thing after going home. It was already 7. But then a hoodie guy stabbed me. I couldn't see his face. He search and take my phone. Cause I didn't have any money probably.

[Third person pov]
Arjit lay on the railway line, blood pooling beneath him, body stabbed and weakening.
His vision blurred, tears spilling nonstop.
The distant rumble of a train grew louder.
He tried to move.
His body refused.
"Damn it… in my next life… I'll change everything."
He coughed, blood trickling from his lips.
"Well… if I even remember."
The train roared over him.
Darkness.
Silence.
Nothingness.

"Hahhh!" A boy shouted in a cave. He was looking at his reflection. He have elf like ears and small horns.his whole body was green.
This is a 1 year old ogre baby.
"Who am i? Where am I?"
Arjit still remember his past life. But what it is. How is he here? He doesn't know.
Suddenly he start to remember something.
A memory that should not exist in his past life.
A lady made of cosmos looking at his body said, "Oh my! His fate was changed by someone intentionally. How cruel. Well boy I will help you."
That's it.
"Oi! At least explain the whole thing!"
He yelled in frustration.
Damm it!
[Welcome host!]
[I am the gift from lady cosmos. A powerful ai system. I will help you in your daily life.]
"Thank God. One system at least I got."
"What?? Another system?"
(Welcome new host!!!)
(I am traveling system!!)
"A third one?"
{Welcome host!!!!!}
{I am fate changer!!}
{I will help you change your bad fate!!}
"A fourth one? What is going on? And it's even a fate Changer."
His new life had just begun.
And this time — surely
fate would not stand a chance.
