After putting his first step in home he was greeted by a roar "NOBITA" a woman roared, but he didn't get scared or even flustered. Why? Because it was his mother, Tamako Nobi who he last saw was 16 years ago in his past life and he missed her to the point that even though she was scolding him her voice felt angelic to him. " Mom?" he thought while small tears drops started to form around his eyes.
"I got a call from Sensei, You slept in class again and when Sensei tried to wake you up you cursed at him. YOU CURSED AT HIM? Just what have I taught you m---" Before she was able to say anything more she was interrupted by nobita who actually jumped on her and wrapped her in a warm hug.
"Nobita wha---" She was a bit flustered! Why wouldn't she be? First her son caused mess in the school, cursed at teacher and now he was hugging her out of nowhere and slowly sniffling away. She was really going through a rollercoaster of emotions today.
"Nobita, what wind caught you today and why are you crying" said Tamako, but Nobita didn't say anything he just slowly sobbed away 'Mom, I missed you so much' he thought.
And after what felt like half and hour or what, he let her go. His mom asked, a bit shocked "Nobita, I don't know what happened but you should tell me I try to do something. Is someone bullying you?" " No mom I'm okay, I will freshen up a bit and talk to you after that" said Nobita.
'Did something happen? He looks changed!' She thought.
*A/N: A women's/Mother's intuition. Scary!😱
Nobita went to his room, put his bag on the table and went to bathroom to wash up his face a bit. After that he went to his room, dried himself with a towel and sat down on his study chair. He thought "There are many things I have to do, First is my physique or I won't be able to survive and second is find some 'Mana relics' to use when mana spreads through earth!" When the apocalypse started a magical energy called 'Mana' started to spread throughout the earth which gave humans powerful abilities but also evolved the Earth's normal animal making them became bigger, stronger and ferocious monsters. Not only that but huge fissures in space appeared on many corners of earth like under the sea, on the sky or even inside people's homes and through them different monsters came to earth which started killing people indiscriminately.
At that time 'Gods' that appeared in myths and legends started appearing and giving and us their powers through the system which appeared out of nowhere which granted us humans something called 'Status Window'. Yeah something we find inside a game which shows us ours stats and skills we have! At first humans didn't knew how to use it but some being called 'Demi Gods' came and said they are a 'Great Being's' apostle, taught us about the system, it's usage and gave us task to complete which gave us rewards. As the saying goes High risks, High returns means the more dangerous the task the better the reward. But things started to take a dark turn when those b**tards started to manipulate the tasks and killing many people, for nothing but their own.....entertainment.
And like that humans started to fight the Monsters and a fight to survive started but normal weapons weren't able to handle the 'Awakened' humans' power and Demi Gods introduced them to Mana Relics which can handle the user's Mana, are durable, can amplify the user's strength and some even granted skill irrelevant to the user's level, stats or profession.
Nobita shook of the distracting thoughts out of his mind and thought 'I wish I had a gun now even I can't kill high level monsters with it, it would've helped me to kill low ranked ones like goblins but money is my problem here and even though I had money it's not like I can buy guns with this 12 year old body of mine. Like how would you react if a 12 year old boy comes to you and asks you he wants to buy a gun to save himself from monsters who came from another world. You will either Beat him or send him to a mental asylum, I'm damn sure about that'.
But my thoughts were interrupted by a little boy who was peeking through my sliding door and I asked him in a small, coaxing voice "What happened Satoshi?" it was my little brother Satoshi, he was currently 5 and in kindergarten. He had Short black hairs like me, small eyes, plump cheeks and an happy aura around him. He was at kindergarten during the apocalypse and I wasn't able to find out what happened to him and it was always a guilt of mine for not being able to protect him. I thought 'He is still so cuuteeee~~!' "Bwader, will you pway clay widh me" he said in his childish tone. 'Kawaiiiii~~' I thought to myself self. "Yes happily my dear little brother" I said excitedly and his eyes lit up. We played for like an hour or something, he looked a bit tired so I told him to sleep and said that we will play tomorrow to which he agreed. He was a really disciplined kid unlike me...
After he went to our room to sleep mom called me from kitchen and said passing me a list and bag with a wallet inside and said "This is a list of items for tonight's dinner, go to market and buy the things on the list" She said in a ordering tone. "Okay mom" I said happily. '.....' Mom didn't say anything else and looked at me wierdly for a second and went to her own business.
I got out of the house and proceeded to go to market. After walking for some time I heard a loud voice from behind calling me " Oi, Nobita"
I followed the voice and looked behind and saw two familiar faces, my childhood 'friend'/ bully. Goda Takeshi (Gian) and Honekawa Suneo came to me and Gian asked " What happened at class this morning? Why did you do that?" in a confused tone. "Are you talking about me cursing Sensei?" I asked in a carefree tone. "Yeah you fool. Why did you do that? Do you want to get suspended? he said in an angry voice. "About morning, I was a bit sleepyhead and said while daydreaming and about being suspended. I don't think I will get suspended for cursing on teacher once" I said In a pretty carefree tone. " Ugh...whatever, come and play baseball with us we are lacking a player" he said in an annoyed tone. I looked at him for a few seconds and said
"Sorry, I'm busy right now" and showed him my bag and said, not giving two f*cks about what they were saying " And I'm not even that much of a good player so maybe later" and started to walk off to my own way.
But maybe my way of talking ticked Gian off because he started trembling in rage and ran up to me to land a punch on me from behind, but me with my extraordinary survival instincts from my past life was able to dodge it pretty easily and made a little distance due to old habits. I looked at him with a cold look in my eyes with a glint of killing intent in them and said "Stop f**king messing with me or you wouldn't even know how you died!" and Gian fell on his knees and looked at me with fear in his eyes after all at the end of the day he was just a snot-nosed brat currently, incomparable to those terrifying demons. And after that started to go my own way.
But during this whole process a pair of eyes were looking at us from behind a telephone pole with shock and disbelief.
"Thank you for coming, please do come again dear customer" said the meat shop owner.
"Ok...I think I bought all the items needed'' I said to myself and started walking to go home, after reaching home I gave Mom the bag with ingredients and the remaining money. "Very good Nobita!" she said, which made me happy. In my past life I ran with my tails between my legs when monsters attacked and let my parents die who protected me with my life, so making her happy in this life was really ridding some of that guilt off my chest.
I gave her a huge grin and went to my room to take some rest and spotted Satoshi who was still sleeping, I bent down on my knee without making a single noise and touched his face gently and caressed it for some time. While looking at him I vowed in my heart again 'This time I'll protect everyone!'
