Synopsis
Juri Takahashi, a 13 y/o girl who’s orphanage burned down. The government thought of the poor as weak so they never tried helping the homeless people. Juri and her friend, Cecilia worked hard to earn enough money for food and a scrawny apartment. Juri thought of Cecilia as her big sister since she was 5 years younger. - - Cecilia would always come home late with torn clothes and bruises everywhere. Juri had always tried to stop her, but Cecilia would always say “I am doing this for our sake. Do not worry about me” with a saddened smile. Juri would always take a walk to the ‘poor people’s library’ around noon and study, since school was too expensive. After being there for hours she then got kicked out of the library. That would be her cue to leave. Juri Takahashi arrived at home and went straight for bed. Just when she was about to close her eyes, she then found herself being strangled to death my a robber. “Finally... free from this cruel world” she thought. What she thought was the end was only the beginning of an adventurer inside a fantasy world. **** First novel! English is not my first language so It might be hard to understand sometimes. I got inspiration from other great novels and authors and decided that I should make my own! (I apologise for immature writing) I am also fully aware that the names given by me are not that creative and good. Kingdoms, planet, people, etc. (Working on the cover. Do not have high expectations, haha!)

Chapter 1 - Reincarnation

It was January 13th.

Juri Takahashi started off her day as usual. Walk to the nearest public library and study.

After what seemed like 4 hours she got kicked out from the library. She could only sigh in relief that it

was not permanently.

Juri then decides to go home earlier than usual. When she arrived she then noticed that the door was unlocked.

"Huh... I must've forgotten" She mumbled and furthermore paid no attention to it.

She took off her shoes at the entrance and went straight for bed. I had been at the library from 3PM to 6:30PM.

She closed her eyes half asleep, then suddenly She felt like as if she was being strangled.

Juri opened her eyes seeing a man dressed in black, and on his face was was a devil mask. She gasped for air and stretched out her arms towards the unknown man, hoping that he would stop.

Time passed and she could feel her vision getting blurry, and her body unable to move.

Then finally, darkness filled her vision.

"It was truly a pity that I would die this soon. I hope Cecilia is okay" She thought. Juri Takahashi was 13 while her roommate, Cecilia was 18 y/o.

They were both came from the same orphanage, but the place they called home soon burned down.

The government didn't want to build a new orphanage as they saw no need to waste valuable resources on the weak/ poor.

Cecilia managed to get a job and rent us an apartment. She would always come home with torn clothes and bruises on her body.

Juri knew from the bruises what kind of job she had. She had tried to tell Cecilia many times to stop, but she would always say

"This is the only way to earn enough money. I am doing this for your sake" with saddened eyes as if she was holding in tears.

"With me dead she no longer has to worry"

____________________________________________

I couldn't see or move my body. "I'm surely dead" i thought, then suddenly, I could feel a warm tingling sensation inside my heart.

Even though I was 'dead' I felt like as if I was about to faint.

Then suddenly, what felt like cool wind woke me up.

I opened my eyes as if I just woke up from a long slumber. My vision was still blurry, but it was clear to see that I was inside an unknown forest.

When my vision became a little less blurry I could see that it was no ordinary forest.

The sun was shining brightly, and I could also see a lake filled with crystal clear water.

Behind me was a small treehouse. It seemed abandoned, yet clean.

I climbed up the latter, and to my surprise I could see furnitures placed neatly in this cramped room.

There was only one exit (not counting the windows).

To the left side of the room you could see a bed made out of wood, and to soften it wool were placed on top.

On the right side were a small round table and two chairs.

There wasn't much, but getting more furniture would make it even harder to walk inside this cramped room.

sat on the bed processing my reincarnation into a new unknown world.
