The Academy's Lazy Student Wants to Rest

PROOF OF CONCEPT This is the story of a man who had lived a life that could only be described as a tragedy. His parents died when he was 8. His wife had a miscarriage and ended up passing away with his son. When he turned 30, he lost an arm in the great war between the empire he called home and the neighboring state. At 52, his adopted daughter was tragically killed by the same man who he swore loyalty to, the emperor. When he was stabbed in the heart at 74 years old, he wasn't angry by the betrayal from who was wielding the sword. Instead, he was relieved. Finally, he could rest. But when he opened his eyes, expecting to find himself in the afterlife, instead, he awoke to when he was only 7 years old. With the opportunity to change his future, this man only desired one thing—rest. He wanted to rest. He was tired of all the schemes, the betrayals, the losses, and the tears he'd shed. All he wanted to do now was rest and he would do anything he needed to in order to achieve that goal of his. So what happens when a boy who is too great for his own good is not left alone?
