Synopsis
I stared at the pills in my hand, contemplating whether or not to take them.
My life had been great until I turned 5. My parents had died a horrid death, and their murderer was never caught.
Without the protection they provided, I was a free target for the aggression of my highly competitive family. I was beaten and abused and made a servant for my cousins.
"Hah, why am I even hesitating?" I swallowed the pills in one fluid motion, all 10 of them, and laid back on my bed. My death would be a painless one where the Grim Reaper's embrace would welcome me, and I would accept it with open arms.
---
I woke up to the sound of birds chirping, and the sunlight peeking out from my window.
"Wha- Why am I still alive?" My head was a mess, presumably from the pills, so I took a moment to sort myself out. What I found, however, was not a headache, no, it was memories.
Memories of a story, a story about a guy who rose to the top of the universe as the strongest. His name was Alexander Goldsmith.
There was only one problem with the memories —I was a Goldsmith, and there was no one by the name of Alexander.
"If this is true, then I'm sorry, but I'll be taking your place!" I saw an opportunity to change myself, to change my fate, so I took it with open arms.

SHAMELESS AUTHOR REVIEW: I realized that I hadn't done one of these yet ( silly me ), so here we are. Uhh, Arthur Goldsmith is your typical MC who cares only about himself and what benefits him, but the story ISN'T your typical story, I hope. Arthur commits suicide and comes back to life with the knowledge to climb to the top, and so he will! There should be some laughs here and there, and since it involves space, it does get a little technical, but it's basic-level technical stuff; I can't do anything more than that without frying my brain. I don't know what else to write without spoiling so, go on, go read it now!
