The sound of weapons firing and tanks rumbling around...as in the side of the street's end (alley), a very slim boy, with Dusty brown hair, unconsciously lying on the ground, the surroundings were Garbage and dirty.
There was nothing that could not be classified as rubbish.
The young guy, who appeared to be 14 years old, appeared to be on the edge of death.
His mother, father, and brother's corpses lay around his body, surrounded by flies and the stench of blood that made him puke like a pig.
The location was harsh, and at the time, no one cared, or rather, no one was there to care, about the entirely desorted metropolis where battles were raging between countries.
"Why... why was I forced to be this way?"
"How long...has it been..."
"I wish I hadn't been so weak... maybe I wouldn't have been in this kind of circumstance and suffering..."
<<Confirmed. Establishing pain resistance. Success. Additionally, establishing mental & physical attack resistance. Success>>
"What's the deal with this odd sound right now?"
"Well… Isn't this a negative thing? My body is confusing my senses....hahaha! That's even worse!"
<<Confirmed. Spiritual Sense. Success>>
His face turned blue and he was on the edge of crying "I have to...remain strong.... I'll be fine even if I die!"
He attempted to examine his own physique. As he attempted to elevate his torso, his eyesight grew fuzzy. He couldn't see anything but a swirl of the dark sky.
The stinging sensation in his back had subsided. Instead, he was hit by a nasty cold.
"Cold...yeah! I've been through a lot more than this...I'm not going down without a fight! With my experience....in cold water and climates....I have always survived the life-and-death situation...huh! Hey, Death God! Is this all you've got?"
<<Confirmed.Cold Blooded body. Success>>
'Growwwl,' the boy's stomach growled.
"Man! I'm starving..."
"It's as if there's a black hole inside me..... m-man, I'm starving."
<<Confirmed.Glutton Body. Success>>
At the time, his dying brain cells were causing everything to go dark with a flash of light.
"...Everything... everything is turning dark...
If I could have only one wish, it would be to o-once have a real....life...."
"It's all because of these people, my family, my friends, everyone was slain by these B*tching humans....if I were...reb*n again..."
"I'll assassinate them all...just for fun..."
<<Confirmed. Unique skill [Death Seed] has been acquired>>
That much he could say with the last of his breath.
The boy died with his eyes brimming with rage, completely satiated.
And at that moment, the boy's "soul" became linked with a beast formed in another realm.
Into a spatial rift so minuscule that no human sight could see it. His spirit became entwined with a mass of demonic energy, as well as a cold-blooded sensibility.
<<finding optimal creature.set. Success>>
This mass was the source of demons and beasts, and it built a body for the kid who had bonded to it, using his thoughts as a foundation.
The boy was reborn as a Spiritual beast in another realm, which is generally an impossibility with an astronomically minuscule likelihood of happening.
<<Finding optimal location...location selected>>
<<Entering reincarnation>>
<<Combaining a Body with this Unique soul>>
<<Last Message. 'You, who have been selected by God, will carry on your legacy in the manner that you desired'. message ended. message deleted>>
"…. the hell you've been on about? Are you making fun of me?"
"God! Yes, that b*tch of a guy!"
"I'm not laughing in this place!"
"What a jerk!"
The boy's soul fell asleep as a result of this thought.
"So this is the end, right...
as lonely as I imagined"
For the boy, those were the lost words spoken in this word.
<<Proceeding in evolution>>
<<Unique Skill: [AETHER] developed>>

<<Combining of the unique soul, successful>>
