Chapter 3 - Prologue III

I woke up again, as if everything was just a dream.

This time, in this earth-like world.

But different from back then, I have my memory of what happened.

I got careless.

I sealed my power and forgot to unsealed it before the fight start.But I didn't go down without a fight.

I use my lifespan—Spiritual energy which is my natural power to fight that man but without my power, I got fuckin mop.

But that doesn't mean that he survived unscathed, I definitely deal a huge damage to his spiritual body shortening his lifespan and weakening him.

But before I could finish him off, he use some kind of spatial movement space to me and sent me in this world.

I'm definitely wary of that man,but what I'm more curious about is this world itself.How is it that this world contains mana?

Surely, this isn't the world I am familiar in my past life—or as they call it.

My powers were sealed but I still have a fragments of it along with some other item that can detect mana, so I'm sure of it.

This world contains Mana. Not just that, I can also feel some familiar powers such as Evil, and Darkness in my surroundings.

It's a pity, I can't even detect the users presence, but I can feel some faint signals using one of the items I have.

I shook my head and stand up.

Tap—

Tap—

More importantly, I need to find a way to survive this world while I recover my power.

I also want to know if the system in this world is similar to my past life, but I merely remember my past life—more less details like that.It seems that I need to use "that" item.But how?

While I was questioning myself, an object suddenly float in front of me.

[Welcome. I am your own system granted to you by the Goddess Aphrodite.My own purpose is to serve you]

I strangely look at it while analysing it.

'I can sense holy magic??' I thought to myself as I observed the screen. Indeed, it's actually envelope by holy magic.

But why do I feel some familiarities?

Although it's my first time seeing this, It felt that as if I already know about this before.

"System was it? Can you tell me what you can do? " If it was sent by a goddess,then it must have some powers.

As soon as I asked the question, it instantly answered.

[Yes. I have several skills that are available for you to use. The first one is [Status], this skills allow you to fully see your own capabilities and growth rate, as well effects that are cause by skills such as poisoning, paralysis, drowsiness, etc....  Next is [Contract], with this skill, you can sign a contract with other people who have system, when you signed a contract, you need to follow it or the system will force you to. And the last one is [Calculations], anything that needed Calculation can be solved by this.]

'Interesting.' I amusingly thought.But I suddenly realized something.

"Wait. Did you just said other people? Does that mean there are people who have systems like you?"

[Affirmative. Almost every human beings have systems to aid them]

And here I thought I was special.

Anyways, I don't really care. I need to test a few more things out.

'System, show me my status'

[Affirmative.]

The system answered in my head and then a new information pop up in front in of me.

This...

I should I say it. It's like I'm op but useless at the same time. No, I'm really useless.

All my stats except agility is G-. I'm literally a human housefly.This is hopeless.My Powers are literally nerfed to the core. Good thing I still have some of my skills and items with me.

And had I to point out my name, why the fuck is it long and noble-like? I read the information and it seems that its because of a ritual done by the ancestors of Rei, the body I was incarnated into. I understand that, but literally? Why can't those moron just give Rei an ordinary name.

Now, if you're asking why did I get incarnated, it's because I was an spiritual being, different from them. It means that I can exist purely through soul—that's when I was in that world. Not when I fell in this world of human.

Speaking of it, I'm starting to miss Azathoth.

I feel lonely, but I should already be used to this right? I just want Azathoth at my side. Back then ,for me, loneliness is like my friend, it made me realize just how different I am.Loneliness comforts me, its addicting.And then, I created Azathoth accidentally, he literally made me realize how enjoyable it was to have someone by your side.

I named him Azathoth because of a book I read in my past life, a god that literally resembles Azathoth! Those tentacles were menacing.

You see, I created Azathoth using a forbidden spell but it soon exhausted all of my power so I failed to completely create the figure I want Azathoth to be, which is I'm glad because I like the octopus like Azathoth, specially his tentacles!

Oh I wish I had—

"Woof!" I heard a bark below me and when I shifted my head, what I met was a tiny animal.

Wait....what is this cute creature‽

Back in my fast life,I remember fighting a similar animal like this yeah,but they're not cute like this one.Their pretty much the same size as me if not bigger.

This one's much more tameable like.Dog...does this dog have an owner?

I look at the dog with my hand reaching out it's head and said.

"Do you have an owner?" I said while giving the dog a wary look.I feel like others would look as if I was a creep if they were to see this.

"What am I doing?" I pinched the middle of my eyebrows and  look down.

Still, I'm quite curious.

I look at the dog and said.

"Wanna eat somethin'?" Or so I said,I forgot that I'm literally broke.

————

I'm merely doing what needed to be done.

Even if I take someone's life, it doesn't matter.As long as I get back to my world. and this is the first step. There's no need to let my conscience take over me. No, I'm just trying not to think much about it, forgive me.

Releasing my hand on the man's face, I stand up and look at the dog in front of me.

"Yay. I got everything we need.money and memories. "

I won't justify myself —I already did.Not that I care...but I actually care. But humans are like this, it's survival of the fittest. Again, please don't mind me, I am definitely insane.

The man I killed was a delliquent. He tried to rob me so I did the same to him. I stole his memory using an item {Memory - Usurper}.It was one of the five item I took with me as an accessories. It's a gauntlet that can well, make someone's memory yours as long as you kill them using it.

I just need to obtain some information about this world so I had to take his memories.Well it was actually his own fault, had he not tried to stole from me, I wouldn't definitely do it. And I also need some money since I'm literally zero for now.

Memories that aren't mine began flashing before my eyes.I was stunned for like half a minute before I regained my control. I can feel some headache but it's just mild.

Unfortunately, that guy's an complete idiot.But I obtained some information that will help me in my daily life.Specially, the Black Market.

It seems that it might take some time for me to return to my real home, but I will definitely. Azathoth must be waiting for me after all.

Speaking of it, my relationship with the dog actually progress pretty fast. It's pretty much giving a more gentle demeanor than it was yesterday.

"How does it taste, Zarch?"

Zarch. I know that it's un-ironically a bad  name for dog, its—i couldn't just think of a more suitable name. I mean I wasn't good at it to begin with.

"I heard that chocolates are bad for dog, so I didn't order any."

I kept talking as if I'm actually having a conversation with a real human.

Maybe I'm actually insane.

And then, realization hit me.

"I also need to find a suitable job. Probably something involved with political management, but I'm quite young for that—well this body."

Now that I think about it.I didn't even know the full identity of Rei—myself.But I don't care either way, I would leave this world as soon as I find a way to restore my spiritual energy.

I don't know what happened to the original Rei.But for me, something unusual is definitely happening behind my back—it's like everything is set perfectly that time.

The man who attack me in my own world definitely targeted me because my power is sealed and I don't have any choice but to use my only resort—Spiritual energy.

No,no,no,no. I'm definitely overthinking. Let's get over with that. There's no way...

Any also absorbed some memories of Rei. But not everything of it, when I was almost halfway of absorbing it, I was immediately cut off and my head feels like it would burst any seconds.It seems that something is preventing me from knowing which is kinda amusing.

But let's get it over. If I remember correctly, Rei's house shouldn't be that far. It's probably just next street to my current location.

So after finishing my meal, I quickly went home together with Spark.I live alone so I guess this is fine. I need to do some...ehem resea—... research...was it?
