Enemies?! Were my first edgy thought in this world. Speaking of edgy, Zet was certainly dressed in all black. Anyway...are those my parents? "Oh, emily! There you are!" (medium size figure) Huh?! , Ehhhhhh?! From what I can tell, these people are talking to me, so when they said Emily, they were refering to me. Both of them had a worried and exasperated expression.
Anyway wasn't it reincarnation? Why am I six years old? If I were to guess, it was because my feeble baby brain couldn't contain the memories of my previous life. There was also a possibility that my memories from my previous life's childhood flowed in first, which would then make me a tomboy before my memories were completely integrated. Well let's first get to know my new parents.
"What are your names? Why are you guys exhausted and worried about me?"
"What?! It's me Gerald Shuu, your father and Maria Shuu, your mother. We were worried because as usual, you ran off into the forest and had us worried!" (Gerald)
What a strange child I was. That was enough information at the present. It seems that I cannot remember any of my memories for the past few years that took place before the memories of my previous life fully integrated into the body.Did I erase the real personality of this body? No, strange as it may seem, I have a certain amount of familiarity with these two individuals that I can safely say they are my rightful parents.
"I'm sorry for running away! From today onwards, I'll try my best to be a good girl!" I bowed slightly and closed my eyes. My soul cringed on the inside from calling myself a 'good girl' but it can't be helped, I need to get used to my new gender.
" Where did my mischievous tomboy daughter go! Did you hit your head? Are you okay??!" (Gerald)
I was a little agitated from the overreaction, but I let it slide out of consideration that it was more strange for these two individuals to have their daughter suddenly change. Going back home. It was strange, It didnt felt like memories went into my head, instead I felt a strange nostalgia. After getting confused faces from my parents, I confirmed that I was 6 years old and that magic exists, though differently than what I thought.
I was in a decent middle-classed family, my father was doing a decent job as a merchant and my mother was previously a waitress at my father's favourite inn before they married and now she just stays at home to take care of me and the house.
I would be comfortable spending the resft of my life in this house. As soon as that thought was in my head, a sharp pain coursed through my head for a second. My brain is rejecting that wish of being a shut in. Was my wish really granted? Now that my personality was changed, I could feel it... More specifically think about it... I think.. I want to explore the outside.. And become a famous adventurer..
Struggling to convert this strange urge into words, I thought that was enough. Now that we have a goal, we should see what we currently have and what are the current laws in this country. From asking my parents, I was told we were in the residential district of Talrux. Now that I know my locations, I couldn't ask my parents anymore or they will get suspicious. Playing it off as childish curiousity, I walked out of the living room that was next to the entrance of our house.
We had decent living space where the living room, kitchen was connected in the front of the house. At the back were two bedrooms, an extra storage room that doubles as my father's workshop and lastly a toilet. It was surreal to see a toilet in a fantasy world, but it wasn't strictly in the middle ages. The outside of my house looked just like any medieval house, but the inside had wooden walls and a wooden floor. My father wore a casual grey tee with some dark coloured jeans. Inside of his workshop was a forge where he could smelt metal and if he wanted to he could make any products he wanted and sell them. From some observation, he was using skills for his job. Well I'll leave that for the future. Maybe I'll ask tomorrow when I pretend to stumble into his workshop.
Now that my observation is done, I head back to my bedroom with excitement. I couldn't do this outside or I would get weird looks. Making sure the door of my bedroom was closed, I open my palm and faced it against the wall. "Open! Status!"
Name: Emily shuu
Level: 6
Health: 100/100
Mana: 120/120
Strength: 10
Vitality: 10
Intelligence: 12
Agility: 128
Why is my agility broken?! Could it be? In the 6 years I was alive, I single-mindedly only thought of raising my agility? No wonder my parents could lose sight of me for a second, did I raise it up by playing catch with adults?! Another detail I noticed was that my family name is similar to that of my previous life's, it went from Shuudan to just Shuu and switched places as if it was a western isekai setting. But it was incredibly strange to have a surname this japanese, are there perhaps other otherworlders? Tch, I thought I was the protagonist.
"Mum, I'm going out for a walk."
"WHAT!" (mum)
"Don't worry I'll be back early!"
That was a lie. Ignoring my mother, I went out of my house. Seeing that I wasn't running around like a wild animal this time, my mother was out at ease and decided that it was okay. From the window, I could hear her shouting." Stay safe and don't get into trouble!" (mum)
"Mhmm!"
First I had to test out my stats. If I were to assume they all started with 10,it would make sense as each level gave me 20 points to distribute and now that I was level 6,I had distributed 118 points to agility and 2 to intelligence. Now I have to see how my stats would translate into combat. In games like this, the main character would usually fight low level slimes. My 118 agility should have no problem against them.
Now where do I find them... Nevermind. My legs took me to the location as if I had been there everyday for the past 3 years. Out of nowhere, a dagger manifests in my clutch. There was an inventory system? How convenient.
Item: Small pouch
Description: This small pouch has been enchanted by spatial magic, only the most skillful craftsmen can achieve this feat.
Where did I get this from? A new signal was sent to my brain at that time, it was a message from the 'world system'. Opening the message it read:
' Hi Emily~, how do you like your new body? 6 years should be enough for you to know what this letter meant~ By the way "Personality alter" has pretty much waster your chance of getting a good advantage in the combat of this world. So in exchange, I gave you spatial magic...but only for storing your items~ On the inside, I also gave a rare tiered dagger but compared to the other stuff of this world...it only beats beginner items. Good luck on your adventures~
Sincerely, Zet'
