I (30), Who Works for a Black Company and Died While Regretting My Gloomy Life, Started Over From High School!

Chapter 155: The Truth of the Time Leap

I was once again in that dreama space that felt like drifting in the universe.

As if underwater, I had a sensation of my body slowly rising from the ocean floor to the surface.

But I could only barely perceive that much; I couldnt tell if I was awake or asleep, standing or sitting.

The name Niihama Shinichirou was so vague that I could hardly recall it even after some thought.

(I wonder whats going to happen to me)

I pondered it hazily. Right now, I was in an extremely unstable state, where everything was unclear.

(Haruka)

In my current state, which was beyond human understanding, I could only think of one girl.

Did I really accomplish what I was supposed to do? Did I prevent the disaster that loomed over the adult Haruka, and save the high schooler Haruka from her negative time leap?

(No, calling it a negative time leap isnt accurate. That was an influx of memories that belonged to the Haruka who suffered mental breakdown in the future of the first world into the high schooler Haruka, a one-sided phenomenon. Its more like a time influx. Its completely different from a time leap like mine, where my memories and intentions from the future were inherited and fused)

As I murmured to myself, I suddenly realized.

Where I was floating right now seemed to be a rather high degree of science fictiona space akin to the Akashic records, where I had access to knowledge that should be unknowable.

(Ah, I see. So thats how it is)

In the midst of my vague existence, I continued to acquire knowledge that I shouldnt be able to know.

Why did I, of all people, get this miracle called time leap?

(There isnt anyone who has the power to time leap me twice an entity with god-like powers)

In conclusion, there wasnt anyone like that.

A time leap is just an adjustment carried out by the world system.

It was quite astonishing, but in this world, there is a power, a kind of fate power, if you will, that allows living beings to bring about a better future.

This is not about luck happening frequently; it is a power that can bring the desired future closer through strong wishes.

(Time leap was something I knew about, but this world is more fantastical than I imagined well, even so, its not easy for it to interfere with reality, so its almost meaningless unless you have exceptionally strong destiny, I guess)

My destiny power was slightly below average, and it seemed I was born under the star of an ordinary person how sad.

Nevertheless, except for me, people usually have that kind of thing, which isnt accessible to miracles.

However, very rarely, someone with a fate power so extraordinary that they could only be described as being loved by the heavens would appear.

The power of wish fulfillment that breaks through all difficulties, who can be described as a reliable ally or savior when they appear in a pinch.

Surprisingly, good miracles dont often manifest in the form of flashy supernatural phenomena; they often appear in a practical way, like calling on a highly competent ally or savior.

Actually, the president Tokimune talked about the savior story when working part-time its about that sort of thing.

Only a direct descendant of the Shijouin family could have a family so desperate and on the brink, and a person with the power of destiny might appear and save the family.

(He joked about it, but he probably never thought that his wife was directly exerting a mysterious power)

Harukas mother, Akiko Shijouin, had two strong wishes when she was young.

One was a wish to save the struggling Shijouin Group, which she was concerned about at the time.

The other was a passionate desire like something out of a shoujo mangato meet her ideal person and be joined in a loving relationship.

As a result, Akiko and the Shijouin familys business genius, known as Tokimune, were paired, and they had a dreamlike happy ending.

Of course, Akiko wasnt aware of this.

(With the change of generations, the next child, in other words, Haruka, inherited the blessing of destiny. Therefore, normally, Haruka should have been able to overcome any adversity and do as she wished. But)

However, Haruka was too serious.

From a young age, she had avoided relying on her familys power and wealth, unconsciously rejecting gaining anything through dishonest means.

Even if youre a favored existence in the world, fate wont work unless you deeply wish for it.

Therefore, whether she wished for friends, admired a brilliant youth, or desperately wanted to work healthily at her workplace, none of it brought her any relief.

And then, after eventually collapsing mentally and becoming like a doll

(In the depths of her unconscious Haruka wished through tears. She didnt want such a foolish ending she had arrived at, she wanted a warm way of living where she could laugh with friends, and be close to the people she cherished)

To that wish that regretted her entire life, fate responded.

However, it was already impossible to save the Haruka who had already reached destruction.

So, fate came to a conclusion.

If the future of Shijouin Haruka was already closedthen, to reach the future she desired, the past should be altered.

Terrifyingly, for fate, time leaps were not considered cheating, even though they were significant events, and there seemed to be many similar incidents in history.

(And in this case it was judged that it would be more appropriate to send someone who could change the fate of Haruka into the past, rather than time leaping Haruka herself. And the elements required of that person)

Being extremely eager for a fresh start in the past.

Having the experience and knowledge to guide Harukas future in the right direction.

And above allgenuinely caring for Shijouin Haruka.

(All of this was fulfilled by a man named me. All the time leaps werent for someone like me they were happening for Haruka)

And that attempt succeeded.

The theatrical figure known as me, sent back to the past, rapidly eliminated the factors leading to Harukas destruction, and the world began to move towards a future without ruin.

The first world that led to a future of destruction was now considered to have never existed, and the second world created by altering the past became the official historythat was the plan fate had devised.

However, a significant problem arose.

The adult Haruka from the first world rejected salvation from others more stubbornly than fate had anticipated. To the extent that she deflected interference from the world.

As long as Haruka herself, who possessed a strong fate power, denied convenient salvation, the second world couldnt overwrite the first world and become the official history.

It was like trying to overwrite data with bugs with a revised version of the data, but the data with bugs refused to be overwritten and caused an error.

(As a result the first world and the second world, which couldnt become one, completely split. In this state, even if the second worlds Haruka was saved, the first worlds Haruka would still face destruction)

Fate, realizing this situation, seemed to be at a loss because it hadnt been able to carry out the task it had set for itself. So, it resorted to a terribly rough method.

In other words, it planned to send me, who had successfully altered Harukas past, to the first world, and have me save the Haruka of the first world.

The procedure was as follows.

First, I would send memories related to the mental breakdown of the first world to the high schooler Haruka, pushing her into a state of pseudo-mental breakdown.

It was already incorporated that I would realize that the only way to resolve this was to save the adult Haruka of the first world.

Then, I would give myself a strong motive to save the first world and time leap.

I vaguely realized it too, but fate didnt respond to my prayers; everything was set up from the beginning.

(Really, fate is just like a black company boss, using me without any explanation. Moreover, not only did it go according to its plan, but whether I could save the adult Haruka was quite a gamble)

Complaining to fate, which was beyond human understanding, was pointless, but it left a strong impression of being a crappy system that would resort to tactics like taking the high schooler Haruka as a hostage, and despite seeing through time and space, the plan was sloppy.

(Well it doesnt matter now. If both Harukas ultimately avoided ruin, theres nothing better than that)

That was the only thing that was most important to me.

I want Haruka to smile.

I want Haruka to be happy.

If a modest but warm future, just as she wished for, comes to passthen, I dont care how many times Im time leaped and used up.

Or perhapsperhaps this heavy feeling is the qualification to save Haruka, I thought with a wry smile.

(Well I wonder what will happen to me)

That much, even with the knowledge I gained in this place, I didnt know.

Where will I, who have completed all my tasks, go?

Or will I be deemed no longer needed and disappear like this?

(Well, if I can return to that world where I had my youth revenge)

If I can go back to that place where the most precious person to me exists

Now that everything is over

When I thought about that, my consciousness suddenly became muddled and my self-definition became even more ambiguous.

The moment I realized that the time to stay in this space had ended

The existence called me vanished from that place.

TLN: This was a bit of a ham-fisted way to explain your setting, Author. Ill allow it because the story is about the romance not the world but do better next time!
