Becoming My Dream Pharmacist! - A Chance To Relive Modern Life - Book Description There are moments in life when the sky seems too far away to touch, when the distance between who you are and who you wanted to become stretches out like an endless winter night. Akio Hukitaske understood this distance all too well. At thirty-two, he had become a ghost haunting his own existence, a game designer lost in Tokyo's luminous sprawl, where neon signs painted false promises across rain-slicked streets and convenience store lights hummed their lonely lullabies until dawn. The deadlines came and went like seasons he'd stopped noticing. Hollowness had carved hollows into his heart that he'd learned to ignore, the way you ignore a distant ache that never quite fades. Somewhere along the way, between the caffeine crashes and the blue glow of countless computer screens, he had misplaced something precious: the dream of a kid who once believed he could heal the world's pain, one prescription at a time. That child wanted to become a pharmacist. That kid believed in hope. But dreams, like distant stars, grow dimmer when you stop looking up. Then came that night—the kind of night where snow falls silently over the city, blanketing everything in a strange, suspended peace. Drunk and stumbling through an alley beneath that endless winter sky, Akio encountered something impossible: a stranger with eyes too calm, too knowing. Before understanding could catch up with fear, there was the cold stab of a needle against his neck, and then, Darkness. When Akio opened his eyes again, the world had shifted on its axis. His hands were smaller. His room wore the familiar-unfamiliar face of a childhood he'd left behind. The mirror reflected a truth that shouldn't exist: the face of a fourteen-year-old kid staring back with thirty-two years of exhaustion behind his eyes. A mad scientist's experiment. An impossible regression. A second chance wrapped in the bewildering gift of youth restored. Now Akio must walk again through the halls that once witnessed his slow surrender, armed only with the weight of everything he's learned and lost. Every classroom whispers with ghosts of choices unmade. Every friendship carries the shadow of knowledge he shouldn't possess—the adult grief of an adult trapped in a body too young to hold it all. The pressure of expectations, the cruelty of adolescence, the suffocating routine of a society built on exhaustion—it's all here, waiting to break him again. But this time, something is different. Among the ordinary chaos of teenage life, Akio finds himself surrounded by people who refuse to let him disappear. Together, they become the constellation that guides him back toward something he'd forgotten existed—not the erasure of past wounds, but the courage to carry them forward. The understanding that healing isn't about becoming someone new; it's about learning to forgive the person you were. Becoming My Dream Pharmacist! is a story about the quiet weight of regret and the trembling possibility of redemption. It exists in the spaces between realism and surrealism, where modern life's crushing despair collides with the impossible second chance Akio holds onto. And sometimes, if you're given a chance to try again, that's enough to make the sky feel within reach once more. RATED: MA15+

"This is a world-first story. The history is the story. Stay with it." The world has ended before. Not in myth. Not in metaphor. It ended completely — gods unmade reality reaching for something they were never meant to hold, and existence corrected itself the only way it knows how. It took fifty thousand years to forget. Another hundred thousand to rebuild. It is about to happen again. This is not one story. It is many — stitched together across millennia, told through the eyes of those who lived inside a world that carries its own wounds forward. A nameless being waking in a summoning circle, learning what it means to exist. A woman who hesitated when she should have fought, and traded a year of her life for knowledge that is quietly unmaking her. A girl in an apothecary being handed a promise she doesn't yet understand. They do not know each other. Not exactly. But the world remembers. It always remembers. Stay long enough and you will see how the threads connect — how every choice echoes, how every name given in love becomes a weight carried forward, how the pattern emerging beneath the history is not a mystery to be solved but a wound that never fully closed. Knowledge is the weapon. History is the scar. And somewhere in the silence between chapters — You will realize you already care.

This is an original Hunter x Hunter fanfiction — not a translation or repost. When sixteen-year-old Kagetsu Yuzuki dies saving a child from a fire, he wakes up in another world — a world of Hunters, Nen, and unending danger. Except this time… he’s not quite himself. White hair. Azure eyes that shimmer with endless depth. The legendary Six Eyes — a gift that defies the very logic of Nen. But Yuzuki isn’t here to dominate or rewrite the story. He’s kind, idealistic, and maybe a little too soft-hearted for the brutal world he’s fallen into. He believes in people. He forgives enemies who don’t deserve it. He still dreams of peace in a place where strength means survival. As he grows, fights, and learns the truth behind his powers, Yuzuki’s beliefs will be tested — because in Hunter x Hunter, kindness can save lives… or destroy them. This isn’t a power-fantasy or harem story. It’s about growth, morality, and what happens when a good heart tries to survive in a merciless world. Romance may come later, but for now, Yuzuki’s focus is on surviving, learning Nen, and finding his place in a story that isn’t his. That said — I’m open to female lead recommendations! I’d love to hear your thoughts on who might suit him best as the story unfolds. Join Yuzuki as he navigates friendship, danger, and the thin line between compassion and weakness — all while trying to make sure his heart stays intact in a world that breaks even the strongest souls.

There is nothing that can be done anymore.” “Gramps–” “Shuuut, go away. I’m already dead, stop bothering me.” “Gramps–” “There, there… Go, fate is waiting for you.” “Arghhh… Damn you, old man!!!” “Hehehe… You will thank me later.” "ARGHHHHH!!! DAMN YOU OLD MAN!!!”
