Story[]
"I'm going to live for myself!"
The greatest assassin on Earth knew only how to live as a tool for his employers—before they decided to eliminate him. Reborn by the grace of a goddess into a world of swords and sorcery, he's offered a chance to do things differently this time around, but there's a catch: He has to eliminate an extremely powerful hero who will destroy the world within eighteen years of his birth. He will have to stop them before that event happens.
Being reincarnated with the name of Lugh Tuatha Dé, the master assassin certainly has his hands full, particularly because of all the beautiful girls constantly surrounding him. Lugh may have been an incomparable killer, but how will he fare against foes with powerful magic?
