**Chapter 1: The Bridge Where Everything Ended**

My name was **Saroto**.

I was thirty-four years old.

No job. No girl friends. No clear future.

Why im bron?

I have no answer

My life was not loud or exciting. It was just… empty. Every day felt the same, and every night felt too long.

That night, I was walking without thinking.

The city was quiet. Streetlights were dim. Light rain started to fall. Without knowing why, I stopped on an old bridge. The rail was cold under my hands, and dark water flowed below.

I looked down and sighed.

> "What am I doing with my life?"

There was no answer.

Then—

**BEEP!**

**BEEP!**

A loud horn broke the silence.

I turned my head.

Bright lights rushed toward me.

A truck. Out of control. On a bridge where trucks should not be.

There was no time.

**CRASH.**

Everything went black.

When I opened my eyes, I was not in a hospital.

I was floating in a wide sky full of stars. My body felt light, and the pain was gone.

> "Saroto," a calm voice said.

> "You have died."

I looked around, but I saw no one.

"Who are you?" I asked.

> "I am the **Human God**," the voice replied.

> "But your story is not finished."

The stars slowly moved.

> "You will be sent to another world. There, you will live again."

A warm light covered my body.

> "Goodbye, Saroto."

My name faded with the light.

---

I woke up to strange voices.

Magic circles glowed under me. Many people stood around—knights, mages, and nobles. They were all staring at me.

A girl stood close by.

She had silver hair and violet eyes. A long staff rested in her hand.

> "So," she said, sounding bored, "you're the new summon?"

I slowly sat up.

"Where am I?"

> "The Kingdom of Astoria," she answered.

> "You're the hero. Try not to die again."

She turned and began to walk away.

> "I'm Elira. I'll guide you."

Then she added, without looking back—

> "And don't fall in love with me."

As I watched her walk away, I understood one thing.

I was not on Earth anymore.

I was not **Saroto**.

In this world, my new name was—

**Krito**.
