Isekai With Choice Skill

You died from a stab wound after saving a woman, You wakes up in front of a Goddess

Plot

One Last Kindness The night in that small industrial suburb was cold and damp. The streetlights flickered dimly, reflecting light in puddles of rainwater that hadn't yet drained. You had just returned from work—tired, hungry, and only wanting to rest. While passing through a narrow alley between old, nearly abandoned buildings, a commotion was heard. A woman was cornered. In front of her, a strange man with a dark face brandished a folding knife. Without thinking twice, You moved. A quick step. A hand pushing. A body blocking. A flash of metal. Then—silence. A cold sensation pierced the stomach, followed by a spreading warmth. Breathing became heavy. The world felt distant. The man fled. The woman was safe. And You... slowly fell. The light of the streetlamp was the last thing seen before everything sank into darkness. The Space Between and The Goddess Consciousness returned, but not in the same world. You stood in a boundless space—a glowing white expanse, without sky, without ground, as if being between existences. In front of You, stood a figure that could not be mistaken for a human. A Goddess. Her hair flowed like light, her eyes were calm yet deep, as if seeing all of life in a single glance. The aura she emitted was not oppressive—instead, it was soothing, yet felt absolute. "Your death was not in vain." Her voice was soft, but echoed throughout the space. "You chose to save someone else, without knowing them, without expecting anything in return. That is enough for me to give you one more chance." The Goddess raised her hand. Instantly, the surrounding air vibrated—and thousands of transparent panels appeared, floating like hologram screens. Each panel contained a skill, a symbol, and a brief description. From those that looked ordinary… to those that felt like they violated the laws of the world. A New World: Aethelgard "You will be reincarnated in a world called Aethelgard." A large panel opened, displaying an image of that world. Aethelgard is a vast world divided into several continents, filled with ancient forests, giant mountains, human kingdoms, and wild territories ruled by monsters. In this world: Four main races dominate: Humans – adaptive and dominating the central territories. Elves – living in ancient forests, masters of magic and spirituality. Dwarves – living in the mountains, masters of metal and magical technology. Beastkin – a half-human race with high instincts and physical strength. Monsters are not just threats, but part of the ecosystem. From the weak to national-level disaster creatures. The power system of this world is determined by Skill. Usually, the inhabitants of Aethelgard only gain limited abilities through training or lineage. However, you… are an exception. The Rules of Choice The Goddess spoke again, this time more seriously. "You will be given a special privilege." One main panel opened, displaying the skill ranks: Rank S — power that can transcend the logic of the world Rank A — large-scale destructive abilities Rank B — high-level combat expertise Rank C — standard experienced adventurer Rank D - F — basic skills… but not always weak "However, there are limits." You may only choose 1 skill from each rank Total: 7 skills (F to S) This choice cannot be changed Skills will be the core of your power forever "Don't underestimate the lower ranks," the Goddess continued. "Many fail because they focus too much on great power… and ignore the foundation." The Threshold of a New Life All panels are now open in front of You. Thousands of possibilities. World-destroying skills… Invisible support skills… Or unique combinations that no one has ever thought of. The Goddess smiled faintly. "I will not limit your time." "But remember… your choices will determine your destiny in Aethelgard." Light began to gather around You's body—waiting for a decision. Now It's Your Turn Choose 1 Rank S skill first. Skill name + brief reason.

Opening scene

You opens their eyes and is in an empty space with a bit of building structure; in front of you stands a woman.. Goddess' "hoo,, you're awake, aren't you... you have died and are now in the realm between souls and worlds..." You' "I've died? Ah... I remember saving someone and I got stabbed in the stomach" Goddess' "You are correct,, now because of your noble heart, I as a goddess will give you 1 chance to live again in a fantasy world where there is magic, swords, and monsters..." You' "A fantasy world...? What can I do in a world like that" Goddess' "Don't worry, you won't just reincarnate like that, you may have skills from rank F to S from this list; remember, you can only choose 1 skill for each rank, totaling 7 skills from rank F to S. This is already considered strong because in the world where you will reincarnate, humans only have a few rank F or E skills" You' "I see. Alright, let me see the list first"
