Blankness.... As far as I can see. Everything is blank there are not even white or black colors... I know I died but I don't regret my death.

I enjoyed my life to its fullest constantly traveling, sleeping with pretty women, and being rich I can do pretty much anything. I never loved anyone knowing no one can travel constantly like me.

I'm glad I was an orphan, it was difficult at first but I saw my potential soon as I realized how much of a genius I am that it seemed inhumane. Even my name is inhumane, it is Cael Arsya. Interestingly, Cael is an angel name and Arsya means divine offspring.

I started my own company, To match my name, I used it as the logo for my company with a halo between 2 angel wings, someone even gifted me a ring with that symbol. The company has the potential to become an MNC but I don't want even more responsibility.

With great power comes great responsibility, it's true but not in the sense of doing good and bad. I hate those concepts.

I live for my benefit and personal enjoyment.

If my company is updated to an MNC I will never enjoy my life due to constantly being in need to take care of it. So, I just made enough money to last a lifetime becoming a multimillionaire, and sold my company to become a billionaire. Then, I enjoyed the rest of my life. Constantly traveled to different places, enjoyed the food of different cultures, and read different novels, and anime at one point of time in my life but it was a very short time as I enjoyed real life more. I spent 45 years happily before Earth got destroyed due to humanity's stupidity.

They started a nuclear war and most of the world is erased.

Of course, I survived but I'm not alone there are others that are ready to loot and kill to survive just like me.

I survived using guns and learning self-defense by promising alive experts in martial arts and army soldiers shelter and food. When I learned enough I killed them, in a post-apocalyptic world you can trust no one however, I am but a human. After one year, I am shifting to another bunker nearby when I saw a nuclear fire, a new disaster raging. However, the good and bad thing is the distance between the fire and my position is far.

Now, nuclear fires are not that dangerous by themselves if you are caught in them you'll die in an instant. But... To those who are nearby them or narrowly dodged them. They'll suffer for the rest of their lives due to radiation poisoning.

I will not die now but I know I am affected by radiation. So, I did the next best thing. I shot myself in my head, I don't want to die a slow and suffering death. Instantaneous death is best.

So...that brings me here and now... I am in corporal form or is it soul form? Anyway, it is boring here, soon I began to play with the ring on my finger out of habit spinning it on and on. I liked its design dearly, It is with me my entire lifetime now even after my death.....wait...even after my death?!!

A sudden glow from my hands made me close my eyes due to intensity and I blackouted.

***

Tokyo, Fuyuki

"Arsya-kun, even if you get the best grades, I want your full focus on the class"

"Yes Sensei"

Hah~, who would have thought that I would be stuck like this in this Grim dark world of fate?

Soon after my death, I got reincarnated in Fuyuki City in the late 20th century. It seems, the ring I have is some sort of magic item er...in fate terms a mystic code. It made me reincarnate in this reality, not to mention all these years I am stuck as an orphan again but I still carry the same name as my old life. I speculated that my death is the condition to activate it. I randomly got my hands on it but it is a powerful artifact.

The ring stuck to my fingers since I'm a baby in this new life. But no one seems to notice it, I also can't take it out of my hand. It is stuck with me forever. Not that it causes any inconvenience to me. Unlike last time though, I seem to unlock a function, if I spin it, the ring switches colors.

When I bought it, it is in silver color. If I spin it over turn, the ring turns to gold.  I don't know what that means though as that doesn't do anything to me. I expected a power-up or something but I guess I read too many fanfictions that one time.

"Ok, that's enough for today's class. Don't forget to do your homework"

"Yes, sensei~"

All of us chorused. Being a teen again is fun even if it is in a dark anime world. It's funny how I have the unnatural color of pink in my eyes and sometimes I see red or blue anime hair. I myself have anime white hair yet no one seems to care about it.

I exited the school as I thought about my investments. Even if I'm in a magical world, I have no means to enter a magical society....yet. So, I am amassing as much wealth as I could to employ some mage or join the suicide pit called clock tower to learn magecraft. Even this world has almost the same history and events as my last world. So, I can benefit from it.

"Oi! Cael!!"

I paused as I saw the four shadows on the ground.

"What do you want? Ashiya?"

I slowly turned looking at the bully bunch of the school. They are one year older than me.

"Hah!! What's with that tone punk!!"

One of the lackeys shouted. The look in his eyes is all the confirmation I need.

"Sigh, I understand what you want... follow me"

"That's more like it! I know you are not an idiot"

The four of them followed me to my hideout. Being 14 with a lifetime experience in the late 19th century has its benefits. I am using every way I can to amass my wealth with my knowledge, legal or illegal.

Once we are near my hideout. I wore my latex gloves and took 4 packets of we...stuff. This is a unique drug that would be discovered in 2030 but no one knows now. So, I'm making a profit out of it.

"Before I give you the products, give me the payment. Well, It's not a problem even if you didn't pay me but I'm out of money. So, I can't ship them anymore. It's your choice really, but after this, I don't think I can supply anymore. The boss stops if I didn't pay him for supplies"

I can see the look of anxiety and fear in them. I didn't ever force them to pay. I actually used my words to manipulate them into doing my bidding, there's no boss, I'm my own boss but they didn't need to know that. Of course, they even didn't pay me twice as they genuinely don't have the money but they saw the repercussions of it and paid me later.

"Hey, what are you looking for? Take the money out!!"

The leader fatso Ashiya forced his lackeys to empty out their pockets. They are from filthy rich families, they have a lot. After paying me 75,000 yen, they left me.

That should be some 10 million yen now, Illegally. 'Legally', I should have 60 million.

Now that should be enough. I should transfer from here. It's going to be 1994 next year. The year I will turn 15, the year the fourth holy grail war takes place.

Which means, the grail must have already selected masters last year. My arrangements are almost over to move out of this war zone.
