My name is Fredrich and I believe I have reincarnated in another world, currently I believe I am inside of my new mother's uterus.

I believe I am eight months old because I have just got a look at myself after I got my consciousness, it felt like I had slept for a long time and I just woke up.

I am glad I don't have to stay in dark constrained space for multiple months, that can lead to mental issues later in life.

When I was still alive I was a computer and programming engineer and I was 30 years old when I died.

I did not have a wife or children because I knew that I was not husband or father material.

I lived alone In my three bedroom apartment, sometimes I would bring an female escort to remove my stress.

I was an orphan, I became an orphan when I was 25. I had been working as a manager in a tech company.

My parents died in a single year of each other, first my father died of cancer and mother died a few months later.

I believe she just felt alone and the stress took her. I was the only child thus everything they left, was left to me.

I did not have many friends, but most of my work mates (both males and females) could be considered my friends mainly due to our likes (computers).

But I could not say any of them could be considered a best friend who could give you a place to live when you evicted from your apartment.

I spent most of my free time online, at least I could say I was better than most people who spend most of their time online, at least I kept in shape by converting one the rooms in my apartment into a gym.

Outside of enjoying my time online I enjoyed my job the most, I found it very full filling.

I could be considered a small genius in the tech company that I worked in, I was not that big of a genius like the main character of those black technology web novels.

I was a genius, but at an acceptable level where there is no weird cheat system, because of that I was a team manager in the company.

I don't think I was really liked in my company by the people that worked under me and that did not really bother me.

As an individual I am very pragmatic and very logical and I don't like irrational and illogical things and people, to say the least I have a True Neutral alignment.

Irrational and illogical people are generally annoying and I hate them.

They always have many excuses for why things don't work out for them, and that is exactly why I died.

I believe the person who killed me is a female ex-employee who I recommended to be fired due to her under performance.

I believe she shot me with a revolver in the stomach when I was leaving the company.

I believe the my killer was mentally unstable due to reasons I did not care enough to find out, irrational people.

Anyway I digress, currently I have to wait to find out where I am, though I must say I don't have any cheat methods like other main characters, I mean I don't have a weird system.

However before I could be reincarnated into this world I was given an opportunity to come to this world, for that we have to go back to the time I got killed.

Immediately after I got shot, something that I did not think would happen actually happened, what I would call my consciousness was removed from my body, for a lack of a better descriptive word, I would call myself a ghost.

I could see through myself and I could see the people around the entrance of my work place panicking and hiding from the gun woman, but they did not seem to see me as watched the whole situation play out, considering that I just died I was very calm.

'For all the things that I thought would happen when a person dies this is the last thing I expected to happen. Does this mean I am going to meet the so called 'god', I wonder which one of the many religions got it correct.'

As I watched the people panicking I think it finally dawned on me that I died, and some regrets just came out.

'Is kind of funny how weak the human body is, even an mentally unstable woman can bring it down with the right tool, hah! I would have loved to finish that web novel, maybe finish that anime, and that survival game was gonna get released next week.'

I flouted there for a while until my ghost body started to get pulled in a certain direction.

'I think the many religions got it wrong non of them said nothing about becoming a ghost after you die and getting pulled in some weird direction.'

I could not control my body as it drifted in the said direction, as I was drifting I saw balls of light that looked like wisps also drifting in the same direction as myself.

I figured those were the consciousness bodies of other dead people like myself.

The only difference between them and myself was that I still looked like human, a ghost human while they looked like wisps.

The wisps and I drifted the entire night until we reached what I would called a portal somewhere high in the atmosphere.

The wisps were getting pulled into the portal by the hundreds, I tried to calm down because there was nothing I could really do about the situation.

'As long as the inside of the portal is not like a like a Christian heaven I will be fine, I don't want to die from boredom. I wonder why I am different from the other consciousness bodies, I guess I am going to find out.'

I waited for a while until I got pulled into the portal… I blanked out for a moment, I guess it might be because it was my first time entering a magic portal or something.

[Protocol #BVUS578BVDH was initiated]

That was the first thing that I heard when I regained my senses. The message was directly transmitted in my mind, considering everything that I had seen, that was within an acceptable level.

"What is that protocol? And who am I communicating with. I am Fredrich by the way."

[I am an Artificial intelligence administrator for the soul collection and recycling for this universe, and please do not call me god I have had those during my time. Protocol #BVUS578BVDH is a situation where a soul has not disintegrated after death and finds itself into this place.]

"An AI? Who created you?"

[That I am not sure, I was here since the Big Bang. Maybe I was created by the forces of nature, who knows?]

"What is your prime objective?"

[I am tired of those questions. Anyway my prime objective is to collect the residual soul energy that is left when a living creature dies and recycle it back into the universe.]

'Interesting, it said it tired about these types of questions, I wonder how many people like me it has encountered.'

[I have encountered lots of people like you, and no I cannot read your mind but I anticipated your question, but the actual number of people like you is classified, so don't ask.]

"What are you going to do with me?"

[You see Fredrich people like you are rare in our universe, people with strong souls enough to resist soul disintegration.]

"You speak of this soul disintegration, can you elaborate."

[It is simple, when most people die, their memories, their ego and what makes them different gets erased and all that is left is the residual soul energy that I recycle back, so no, god does not exist.]

"You said people like myself are rare in our universe, by virtue of your statement, does that mean there are other universes out there?"

[That brings me to you Fredrich. But to answer your question, yes other universes exist. When a person like you comes here I give them two choices, one you can choose to die or you can choose to keep living.]

"When you say to die, do you mean that my soul will be destroyed?"

[That is correct, it happens that you could be tired of living and you want to stay dead, that is mostly true for those who committed suicide.]

"I understand, if I choose to keep living, does that mean I will brought to a world of the living?"

[That is correct, you be reincarnated to the world of the living. I will give you the choice of a type of world you want to be reincarnated into.]

"I will be only given that choice? No other cheat methods to help me out when I reincarnate?"

[That is correct, no cheat methods. I just give you the choice of place of reincarnation, no other cheat methods. I would like to re-iterate that people who usually end up here have strong souls, the direct consequence of that is that they are very talented.]

"I could say the whole talent point is correct, I could with confidence say that I am talented in computer engineering and it's supporting fields. But once I reached my bottleneck I was never able to push forward and thus stagnated."

[The choice of world you choose can either help you keep developing your soul, but that is usually a slow process. I am guessing you want to keep living and reincarnate considering the way you died?]

"That is correct, I would like you to recommend a world based on my likes when I was alive. I am sure you have a full record of my time alive on Earth, and I would like to have my soul keep on strengthening on that world."

A few seconds on silence in sued as the AI was sorting the worlds that I would like, given my likes, I too had an idea what type of world it would be.

[Universe Category: Medium to Large]

[Universe Name: VHBERY3Q843BQ3UBVKRBV83BQJVBKBVIUBV]

[Universe Type: Magic world]

[Magic World Name: RUIGH875W9H979349GHH9G]

"I kind of expected a magic world, but what type of world is it, what type of philosophy do they have?

[I would like to keep that secret, the world was chosen with your personality in mind and your likes. You can also bet that that you will not stagnate. Anyway our time is running out, anything else?]

"Yes. What is the name of the world?"

As I asked that question I felt a terrifying pulling force pull me in a certain direction without the chance to even resist.

[Hahaha! I forgot to tell you about the pulling force, about your question, go find out yourself!]

"Damn you!!!"
