The ground shook so much that the ceiling of the classroom had collapsed a few hours ago, even so, I still couldn't calm down. I couldn't move my body, legs, or arms, everything was probably buried.
Eyes are the same... there's only endless black. As for the pain? Well, I no longer feel it. However, out of all that, I could still feel something.
It was the faint sound of a voice that kept calling my name out loud. "Alfarie! Alfarie!"
So ....
Whether I'm imagining things or not, I don't know. How could there still be someone in the middle of this chaos? Hmm, but maybe. Everyone's luck is different. Maybe she's luckier.
Well, but whatever it is...I won't be able to respond to her call. My body is dead, all that's left is this rambling consciousness.
Why won't this life leave the body? I've been waiting for hours. That's a long wait, you know! I kept muttering to myself, mentally exhausted.
I should be panicking, scared, or something, right? Why am I this calm?
Well, it's because there are no precious things in this world. I don't have any, which is why I have no regrets.
Ahh, God of Death or Angel of Death... let's get on with the job! You must be professional, don't procrastinate! I want to leave this mortal world immediately, the destination is the eternal afterlife. I was fed up with all the things in the world.
Moments later, a speck of white light appeared in my field of vision. As time went on, it grew larger and shone brighter and brighter. Eventually, the mysterious light devoured all the darkness.

"Congratulations, Mrs. Foula, Mr. Samra. You are now parents. Look, isn't he a cute baby boy?"
I opened my eyes, three people were surrounding me, two women and one man. They looked at me with confused looks mixed with happiness.
It took me a while to understand the situation I was in. Well, I was reborn as a baby. And strangely I still carry the memories of my previous life.
Is this good luck? I suffered the same fate as the protagonists in the Light Novel.
No! This isn't luck at all. Quite the opposite, it's bad luck! Being the main protagonist of a story sucks. An extra character who just goes with the flow is much better. A character that the main characters don't care about and can die at any time, even by a small thing.
However, I don't intend to be an extra who, when he dies, won't get any attention because his existence isn't important. I want to break that extra role.
And for the first step, let's bring out the instincts of a baby. Even though I've been holding it in half, the reaction to poop is unbearable.
This is a normal baby. Please, think so, my parents.

I think I've lived for 10 years in this fantasy world. Magic, something amazing and beyond reason, clearly existed. I could see through my eyes that everything in this world was enveloped by magic energy.
I had been trained by my father, Samra Kamamara. An outcast noble, yes I am a noble. To be clear... low-class nobility, a Baron family in a small village. However, that was back then... our noble title was revoked and we moved to the forest, living in isolation.
So, don't ask if I have any friends, that's impossible! The only person who's the same age as me is Amara, she's my sister. We're only a year apart, but even so, Amara grew a little taller than me, making her haughty. It's not uncommon for me to be regarded as the youngest.
"Amara, you're too strong! You're the heir to the Kamamara family!"
"You're the older one, my brother. Fight on, you're Kamamara's hope!"
Amara's motivation is meaningless, I put down the sword I was supposed to use to cut down a tree. This was an exercise from the father, aimed at getting a supply of wood at home. What a lazy bastard! His lazy nature had rubbed off on me.
I sat back against the tree, looking at my sister who now had an exasperated face.
"You're great, Amara! With just three swings, you can knock down a tree with a 1.5-meter diameter trunk?!" I said spontaneously, flashing Amara a faint smile.
"That's a compliment?"
I glanced at the old tree that Amara had uprooted. "Keep it up. Show me you're more talented than me! I'm too lazy to be the family successor. What will become of Kamamara if this lazy Rie becomes the head of the family?" I grinned at my sister.
"Why do I have a brother who lacks maturity?" Amara stepped closer, sitting down beside me.
"Mature? We're still kids, don't you want to enjoy these fun times?" I replied.
Amara gave me a lackluster look, "well, that... we're both mature in our thinking. Well, maybe thanks to mom and dad's upbringing?!"
They both raised us inappropriately for our age. We were taught so many things at such a young age. It was too annoying for me who wanted a relaxed and unstressed life.
Well, whatever it is... I guess I should be a little grateful that there is still a figure who plays the role of a teacher, rather than none at all.
"My brother, lend me your shoulder!" Amara was about to lean her head on my shoulder.
I immediately shifted my seat, "No way! I'm not your pillow!"
"What kind of brother doesn't care about his sister?" Amara irritably looked away, she then chose to sit on the other side of the tree opposite me.
"I don't intend to be a considerate older brother. Why? Don't you like it?"
Amara was speechless, with no sign of movement. Well, she was cranky.
Then we stayed in silence, enjoying the atmosphere of the forest. Listening to the birds chirping, feeling the soothing breeze... well, this peaceful atmosphere must be maintained.
I'm a little sleepy, this atmosphere is too favorable. A few hours of sleep shouldn't be a problem. I can look for the wood later.
"My brother... going bandit hunting?" Amara was suddenly in front of me.
"Huh?" I gasped, eyes blinking a few times. "Well, that's... lazy! I want to sleep. Just do it yourself!"
"You lazy bastard!" Amara started shaking my shoulder, "come on, this should be fun. I dislike them for choosing to hide in this forest. They've hunted all my rabbits."
What the heck? My rabbits?
"Huh, listen, my dear little sister! All the living creatures in this forest do not belong to you. It's their right to use them. Let them do what they want as long as they don't interfere with our lives!" I closed my eyes, pretending to be asleep.
"What are you? Think about our house too. They could find it, you know? Isn't that a bit risky?"
I didn't respond.
"Rie, come on, I'm bored!"
Well, what kind of girl is she? Her busyness is being used to hunt down bandits!?
"It's up to you, my brother! I'll hunt down bandits myself. Watch out if you ask for a share of the spoils!" Amara headed off alone into the unexplored inner forest.
"Huh, Amara?"
Regarding the bandit, I had known of their existence for a long time, even before Amara.
"Maybe this can be a lesson to her, don't be such an arrogant!"
I decided to chop up the tree that Amara had uprooted first, before continuing to sleep. It would be a problem to go home without anything.
