I felt like I was floating as I sank deeper into the depth of this cold ocean.
It was strange how cold it was although how I would really know I was numb; I fell helplessly to the bottom unable to move or do anything as water filled my lungs.
"Stars"
I thought to myself as I looked up, there were thousands of them in the sky so beautiful and bright.
Thoughts fulling my head, I am going to die here, aren't I?
I could feel my vision starting to blur as things slowly got darker and darker.
My lips parted as the last of my air escaped my lungs leaving me with the feeling of the cold water invading and replacing where the air once was.
laying there on the rough, grainy sand it was cold, really cold.
"So this really must be it, huh...I'm really going to die such a pathetic death, at least...at least it's not a painful death."
I mumbled more water filling my lungs as I closed my eyes the life fading from my body, and I lay lifelessly in the depths of the ocean drifting around with the current.
I suddenly sat up confused as I looked around at my surroundings.
There were trees everywhere surrounding me from all directions, as well as a giant blue lake.
The lake was shining in the morning sun reflecting such a beautiful golden, in the crystal blue lake.
"I didn't die. Was it all a dream..."
I thought as I stood up but the world around me felt so big.
That is when I realized I was not just small...I was not human anymore.
Glancing down at my feet I saw four fluffy paws, soft and full of plump digital pads.
I sprinted towards the lake feeling my tail drag across the rough and prickly grass.
looked at myself hoping to see a human face looking back, see a small and fluffy black kitten reflecting back.
Stepping back trembling I flopped sideways lying on a softer patch of bright green grass.
I jumped back to my feet when a screen looking thing appeared in front of me, reaching out a soft looking paw go through the screen.
It had a similar appearance to one of those things you would see in one of those Isekai stories I read.
I walked closer to it and there were words written on it in a very fancy font almost hard to read.
"Are... are you a window?"
Curiously speaking with caution, wanting to know if it really was like one of the things in what I read.
Suddenly there was a loud voice echoing through my head,
「No I am a fucking system you dumbass what else would I be your mum?」
"Aren't systems normally nicer, to their host...?"
I replied confused at the rude voice I got back from the system.
"Well what should I call you system? Or do you have a name of which I should know?"
I glanced back down towards the window and words kept appearing there but before I could start trying to read the fancy font I heard the echoing voice in my head again.
「Yes, I have a name...but why should I tell you after all who dies such a pitiful death, I mean like seriously drowning? How stupid can you be」?
I could feel myself growing red out of embarrassment.
"I- I'll have you know I didn't choose to die the way I did it wasn't my fault!"
I said trying to stand up for myself before turning red again as I heard the system laughing.
「Whatever man you believe what you want to but I will keep believing that it was stupid, just like your face.」
Glancing upwards at the bright sun, blazing brightly in the sky.
"So how does this go? Can I see my stat window or something?"
I asked slightly curious if I had one.
I saw another window pop up in front of me.
I felt a rush of happy emotions.
"This really is just like a video game…"
I glanced at it to see what kind of awesome stats I was going to get.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You can close it now."
I said feeling disappointed.
I was weaker than I thought I would be.
I thought I was going to have super skills or be amazing but turns out even my special skill is annoyingly dumb and there is nothing helpful.
"System… why…just why are there insults after lots of my stats…"
I said barely holding in the urge to curse out this really rudeass system.
["What are you talking about? I do not see any insults? just truths"]
I glared at the window screen in front of me.
"tch"
I made clicking my tongue before looking around.
"We can talk about your annoying attitude later. I need to explore this place a bit."
I said just loud enough for the system to hear before hearing the loud echoing voice answer back.
["How about instead we talk about cosmetic surgery you could use, a lot of it…"]
My tail fluffed up as I started to feel frustrated at this point.
Before sighing and continued on looking around as I chose to ignore this annoying system or whatever I should even call it at this point.
I started to walk around getting to know a bit about my situation.
One thing was for sure, I had reincarnated into another world although I do not know what this world was like yet.
One thing I knew for sure is that this system did not like me in the slightest; they did not even try to hide it.
As I got distracted mumbling to myself complaints about this whole thing, I heard a rustling in the bush making my fur stand on its ends and my tail fluffed up as I looked over at the bush.
"Someone in there?"
I asked out but it is coming out as a rather long meow backing away slightly as a dark figure walked out from the bush coming into the light, I noticed it just was a slime.
Taking a deep breath I relaxed letting my guard down after all slimes were known to be peaceful and docile creatures unless attacked first.
The more I looked at the slime though it seemed like it was getting ready for something.
The system started talking to me all of a sudden, almost making me jump as I almost forgot about it.
["It appears that the slime has taken a disliking to you, well I mean anyone would if they saw you but still, I'd suggest you give it a nice big hug and let it kill you, I'm sure no one would miss you since you already died"]
I really wish I could punch this damn system I thought to myself clenching my paws at the air.
"Screw you, you stupid-"
As I start to speak, I was cut off by the slime suddenly charging at me in an attempt to kill.
I jumped to the side out of instinct, I really was not planning to die today for a second time.
From all the games I played and things I read I know for a fact that slimes are weak to magic.
So I will just have to use a magic attack to get them.
"System…"
I said already regretting bothering to ask them.
"Is there anything I can use to kill this slime?"
The system window appeared again as I looked down at it.
["OMG, do you not know how to kill a basic slime?? And here I thought your intelligence was the only good thing about you?"]
I could hear the system trying not to laugh.
"ha-ha so funny…"
Looking down I started to think about how I should do this.
I retracted out my claws as I charged at the slime without noticing it, magic started casing my sharp claws.
I jumped into the air striking the slime from the top with it, watching as the slime started to melt into the ground as a clear sign of it dying.
"Wow, which was…surprisingly easy…"
I said looking at my claws before hearing a 'Ding' sound and looking up to see a window opened.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
