Going to a non-Schengen country while waiting for the first residence permit

Going to a non-Schengen country while waiting for the first residence permit - Exterior view of luxurious residential house with roofed parking and spacious backyard in snowy winter countryside

I recently moved to Italy for work (4 months ago) and I have applied for my first residence permit. I still have not received my residence permit.

I also have a MULTI visit D visa valid for another 6 months. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, I have to go to my home country. I have the receipt from the post office.

Can I go and comeback without any issues?
