Master swordsman, sage, dragon knight... Remille can’t believe his ears when the princess lists off his possible futures. Born to a lesser noble house, he’s never been anything but a low-level adventurer. In fact, he’s lived that same life seven times—always forming an adventuring party with his friends at age fifteen, and always giving his own life to save theirs three years later. But not this time. The eighth loop is going to be different.

After his most recent death reveals his friends’ treachery, Remille finally takes a different path that leads him to Princess Ciel, wielder of the powerful Eye of Appraisal that can judge anyone’s true potential. Will her wild claims about Remille’s future come to pass? With her guidance, can he really become a great sage or a rider of dragons? Is the adorable catlike familiar he’s tamed in past lives really a mighty behemoth, the strongest of the magical beasts? And will he really be able to escape the deadly destiny that’s claimed his life seven times already...?

Remille seems to have made some progress toward breaking free from his grisly fate. But even after his success in the civil war, he can’t rest on his laurels. He’s gotten much stronger than he’s ever been before, but Ciel isn’t done with him just yet. She’s come up with her own crazy plan—the first part of which is getting Remille to tame a god. He’s not ready for that quite yet, and getting that good is going to be a rocky road, but Ciel’s training methods are, well, what one might call “extremely effective.” With her guidance and the support of his beloved followers, this time he might be able to make the impossible possible. Taming a god doesn’t seem so out of reach after all!

This is a story about Remille, an adventurer who died. Specifically, he’s died a lot—seven times now, always at the hands of vicious monsters. Every time, though, he’s returned to the same day, three years prior. He’s tried everything at this point, from sword fighting to magical arts to beast taming, but it always ends the same way. Is there any hope for him in this 8th loop of his life? Perhaps a chance encounter with Princess Ciel might change things? Her magical eye can see all possible futures—and with Remille’s vast stores of XP from seven lives of adventuring, just about anything is possible! Add in the fact that his erstwhile feline friend Catra isn’t exactly what she seems (and how the princess herself wants to party up with him) and this 8th loop might just be the charm!

Remille has managed the impossible and made a name for himself by defeating his old party in battle with help from Ciel’s magic Eye. But his fated death continues hanging over his head, looming three years in the future. Their party of two is still a little small for defeating that horror beyond horrors, so maybe it’s time to retrace some steps and find an old comrade—and perhaps some new ones too. Yet he and Ciel aren’t the only ones plotting in the kingdom...

Remille has made amazing strides compared to his past seven loops—he’s already a B rank adventurer, after all. But he’s not done yet! With a civil war brewing, it’s up to Remille to serve as the ace in the hole who turns the tide of battle. It might seem impossible, even with his newfound strength, but with a quartet of powerful monsters, Princess Ciel, and his trusty behemoth Catra by his side, the situation just might be saved. It’s time for Remille to prove why he’s the hero!

With the civil war all squared away, Remille has found himself the proud owner of an entire territory—not that he knows the first thing about running one! The land and its residents are dirt-poor thanks to the previous lord, and this loop’s so different from the others, Remille has his work cut out for him. But he’s still got Princess Ciel backing him up, not to mention his ever-growing horde of loyal monsters. Will he break free of the loops...or fall victim to them once more?

Remille now leads a happy territory with monsters and humans living alongside one another. Life seems to be going smoothly for the time being, and everyone has a moment to breathe. Well, everyone except Remille, whom Ciel immediately puts back to work so he can get even stronger! This is just in time for him to take an S rank examination, where he’ll have to defeat one of those “ultimate” adventurers. Remille’s met every challenge so far, but can he really pull this off?!
