Synopsis
So remember that religion where people get reincarnated when they die? Well.... It's true. You must be asking how the hell did I get myself here in another world similar yet unlike our world we call earth or terra? Well it's due to the dewy slopes of a couple of years ago. I was mixing a couple fissile uranium batches ordered by space ship that I was working at, and made an accident that I had to be tortured for a few hours until I died from the pain, and the injuries I sustained from that accident. I was a xenobiologist, and in my free time I do help with the work of my crew mates. Yeah life does suck isn't it? But due to some glitch in the system/life by some higher power or a mistake I had my memories intact from my past life as a xenobiologist. Mainly my study was in flora, and fauna. Now I'm some noble lower caste in some world I barely know to be some dress up bunny because I look like a girl when in reality I'm a boy. Goddamn I wish there were gender roles in this goddamn world. I wish I was back home. I don't wanna be some dress up bunny for the rest of my life for my crazy cousin. But in my spare time I am a contractor. Contractors are the equivalent of mercenaries in this world and would kill monsters or god forbid people if you are in that much heat by the empires high command. People have magic here but me. I can't use magic. Instead I found out that I have an ability where if I was in a bad shape/near death my strength would increase dramatically but if I'm not in danger anymore it lowers my strength dramatically, and another ability that makes me blood thirsty but in exchange of killing someone I get stronger. Yeah seems like bullshit right? Well in my life it isn't bullshit anymore. In this world it's either kill or be killed. The Darwinian way for survival. I am the merchant of death, and this is my story.

Chapter 1 - Prologue: Death, and reincarnation

A bright flash engulfed the room after I accidentally mixed the wrong measurements for the fuel. Suddenly I felt I'll, and went to the bathroom, and started puking out blood. Oh crap. I'm gonna die from radiation poisoning am I? Then suddenly the ships communication systems blared to life because of the radiation. Then they said that there was a 6000 sieverts radiation leak. Oh shit. I just got blasted by 6000 SI didn't I? Oh crap. I didn't expect I would die like this. I continued to throw up blood into the bathroom toilet like a sick dog. My body felt hot. It felt like I was burning. I screamed at the agony of radiation poisoning.

I continued throwing up. I was throwing up blood. Holy shit...

Then people came to look for me, and escorted me into the med bay. I began convulsing on the med bay. Throwing up blood at everything. Everyone on the ship strapped into the bed. I just looked at them, and they saw that my body began to quickly necrotized. They gave me a mirror to look at and saw some parts of my face began necrotizing. Radiation destroyed cells, and DNA. Essentially dooming me. I silently sobbed but it felt painful just to sob. It was like I was burning my skin with hot water.

I was to die in just a couple of hours. A few hours later skin began peeling off me, and leaving muscle tissue exposed. I began leaking blood. It was painful to see skin peeling off the body. But I felt nothing. The pain was no more. It's probably the radiation destroying the pain receptors. The others looked at me solemnly as I bleed out. There was nothing they or even I could do. There is no reversing radiation poisoning.

There was no one to blame but me. It was an accident. I have no I'll will on my crew mates. This was my fault. I was just trying to be helpful during the flight but now look at what it got me. I smiled one last time, and closed my eyes.

Suddenly I woke up in a bed. I looked around, and saw myself as a two year old toddler in a mirror. What the fuck... Is this some sick joke played by my brain? I tried to speak but couldn't. I could only grunt, and cry. Then a woman came up to me, and fed me. I pushed the titty, and closed my mouth. The woman them force fed me with the breast milk directly from the breast, and I felt sleepy. Wait! The fuck am I a toddler?! I mentally sighed as I know no one will answer my question. Fuck this. Goddamn if this was another life goddamn I hate god. I thought I would be asleep forever in the abyss we call death.

I fucking hate this life! IF I EVER MEET GOD IM GONNA BITCH SLAP HIM FOR PUTTING ME INTO THIS GODDAMN BODY!

8 years later...

(Authors anecdotes: Who would want to read about a normal childhood? If you're gonna ask me why I didn't make a story in the MC childhood it's boring. Come on! It's just any childhood of nobles back in the 16th-17th century where children are forced to learn from teachers or masters but in this case he couldn't even use magic so what's the purpose of learning magic if you can't even use it! It's just a child hood where he just re learns this story's version of English, and a few training exercises a day like some wanna be landsknechts/soldier. It's boring as hell!

And yes this is an alternate timeline of earth where magic exists, and where living flesh creatures made out of only exposed tissue exist.)

Holy shit! Turns out this world is soooooo fucked up! Like there is a fucking tree made out of exposed tissue! There is also some nightmare version of a goddamn fly trap plant where a flesh plant hides underground waiting for it's prey to fall to the goddamn pit fall! Impaling them with giant sharp teeth. There is also a snake made of expose tissue, and Fuck!! Is this hell!?

I sighed mentally as I was born in this place. Out of all places this is where I was reborn? Goddamn I have bad luck. I can't even use goddamn magic. Everyone in my goddamn family can use them yet I can't? Fuck this shit! I'm so pissed! Plus everyone is treating me like some princess, and making fun of my goddamn looks. Goddamn I hate this body. My older brother calls me a goddamn pretty boy/girly boy = trap. I don't wanna be some trap for boys to come to me to try and date me to later learn in a boy to get their hearts crushed. I ain't gay. What am I some internet troll? I don't want that!

Suddenly an unknown car came into the small mansion. Suddenly my parents went to the carriage greeting the person inside. An older woman came out, and a girl 4 years older than me. They entered the mansion. I quickly hurried to my room, and got dressed for visitors.

I grabbed my maid uniform that my parents made me wear as a sign of disappointment. It was a gift, and I was told by my mom and dad to wear this if someone is visiting. Goddamn I hate it here! This is why I don't like my life here. I'd rather be a xenobiologist learning about plants than wear a humiliating maid uniform.

I entered the kitchen, and made tea. I sighed, and looked on the distance. I turned on the kerosene stove, and boiled some water. Goddamn why do I have to be the goddamn maid in this house?

These people don't respect me as a family member, and made fun of me for my looks. I sucked it up, and grabbed the tea bags. After a couple of minutes the water was hot. I turned off the stove, and grabbed the silver wear, and the teapot. I then brought it over to my parents. The woman looked at me with shock, and amusement.

"Who is this sister?" Asked the woman to my mother.

"It's my son. I have him wear that because he looks cute in it." Mom said with a smile in her face. I sighed begrudgingly, and ignored the insult.

She must be my aunt. I guess I'm gonna get laughed at don't I? Then the girl with her a 14 year old came up to me, and asked my mom if she can borrow me for a second. Mom accepted, and she had a huge grin in her face. This family is fucking filled with crazy people doesn't it?

My cousin pulled me into the dresser, and began to dress me up in female clothing even though I'm a boy. Goddamn I hate this. Fucking hell!

To be continued.....
