My name is Seishi Shinseina and I got transmigrated to the game I used to play. It was a classic RPG game called Chronicle of Kingdoms. This is your same old hero-saving world kind of story but something different about the game is that despite trying different endings, every time one of the main cast dies.
At start players thought that the company just designed the game in such a way however, when game company received some die hard players mail, company posted official statement that there is true ending.
So players again tried to clear the game, completed every quest, acquired all important items, levelled up all party members to max but still the result was same.
Therefore, slowly game lost it's popularity and players just switched to other games. Now You must be wondering why I am sure that I am inside the game. Well the reason is simple because I could see the screen in front of me which showed my status window and Quest given to me.

My stats could be said to be low compared to main characters and main quest was also meant to be done by hero and his party.
Along with this quest I noticed earlier on that I transmigrated to body of one of heroin's brother Main heroin Eirlys Arcanum is genius magician seen once in century who helps hero's party by providing both magic support and resources.
Her brother was older than her by 2 years and according to the story, he was supposed to die when he was 10 years old. However, it was not mentioned in details how he died as he was merely added in back story of Eirlys Arcanum.
Therefore, I was confused why among all main and side characters, why did I end up in his body. it would have been better if I was inside side character or extra.

Suddenly, I heard door opening to the room I was in and saw maid standing at the doorway. She looked shocked like she saw some ghost.
"hell...."
before I could say anything, she ran off.
I tried to get up but it seems my current body is very weak. So, I decided to lay back on bed again and rest. I am sure maid ran away as she remembered something important and rushed to take care of that stuff.
"Thud-thud-thud"
However, soon I heard footsteps of people and looked towards the door only to find couple and girl standing at the door halting in their steps. Man seemed shocked and woman was on verge of tears.
They slowly walked into the room and came near me.
"Ahem"
I cleared my throat to speak but before I could utter any word, woman and girl both hugged me and started crying.
I realized soon that crying woman, girl and man standing with light smile was Neil Arcanum's family.
"Neil"
"Sob, sob"
"my child"
"Sob"
"I am really glad you woke up"
"Sob"
Neil's mother and sister both were crying.
It felt very awkward at first that game characters I used to interact with are now real. I wanted to stay still but somehow I returned the hug and patted both of them on their back to reassure that I was alright.
Suddenly, I felt big hand on my head and found Neil's father caressing my head with gentle eyes. I knew that these people were game characters but I felt emotional for no reason. I think that somewhere original Neil's emotions were coming out.
Feeling the mood of the room I decided to stay silent and just enjoy the love that I was receiving in place of original owner.
You may find it cliché scenario but I was orphaned in my last life.
Therefore, this was first for me to feel the family love.
After some time passed, everyone calmed down and separated.
"How are you feeling Neil"
My father asked me the about the health and seemed somewhat worried.
It seems the previous owner of the body neglected his health very much and made everyone worried.
"I am alright dad just feeling very hungry"
"Got it we will eat together today"
"Snap"
"Sam tell cooks to arrange the best nutritious food"
"Also bring best vitality portion from treasury"
"Yes Master everything will be done soon"
My father gave instruction to the butler who suddenly appeared out of thin air after just snapping his fingers once.
I tried to move and get up but in the process I almost fell due to the weakness that I was feeling since start.
"Careful baby"
My mother and sister came to support me immediately.
"Thanks mom and Eirlys"
"it seems your body is extremely weak since you have not received proper food since last year"
"what did you say! since last year"
"yes you suddenly collapsed when you returned home, however, I will tell you in details about it during dinner so first let's eat"
"sure dad, I also feel very hungry"
So we decided to head to dining hall.
