The Mage Regressor

At 79 years old, Nero is a frail mage burdened by a lifetime of illness and regret. As the world succumbs to flames and hope crumbles to ashes, his final moments are interrupted by a strange figure emerging from the shadows, posing a single question:

\"If given another chance, would you take it?\"

With nothing left to lose, Nero accepts. A handshake seals the bargain, and he awakens in a familiar place: the grounds of his old academy, sixty-five years in the past. The slate is clean, his memories intact, and his youth restored.

This time, Nero vows to seize everything he once longed for: savoring delicacies he\'d only dreamed of, exploring a world still brimming with wonders, and living a life without restraint. Yet, there’s one critical challenge—he must stop the world\'s destruction before it begins.

As Nero embarks on this second journey, he quickly learns that altering the past may require sacrifices far more devastating than watching it all fall apart.
