Japan, Tokyo 2025.
The streets are filled with people as the flashing lights light up the night sky.
Buildings have neon lights on them.
It was my parents concert. They weren't there yet though. I'm pretty sure their getting ready downstairs.
"Lucky. I wish I could go out"
I was born with an illness.
It prevents me from going outside and makes my bones weak so I can't really walk.
My parents despise my existence for not being able to carry out their legacy. If it weren't for the maids and servants looking after me and taking care of me I would have died . I'm really alone.
I could hear footsteps up the stairs and heading towards my room.
I assumed that it was one of the maids coming up to my room to give me a present, it was my 15th birthday after all but that wasn't the case.
Instead it was my dad. He was about 6 ft 3. Black hair. An amazing build. He was ideal man from the outside but his heart was full of malice.
My mother would visit me from time to time but never my dad. He grabbed my shoulder gently. For the first time in my life I saw him smile.
"Today's your birthday right."
This was strange. The father I knew only had hatred for me but now he was smiling? Was he hiding his hatred for me like my mother does?
"Y-Yes Father it is"
The man then took his hand off my shoulder and then walked towards my window staring at their venue outside. The colours from the lights had lit up my dark room.
"You know. Today is a special day for me and my mother as well. Today we are having our biggest concert yet. Its going to be amazing you know"
The man kept on going on about his concert and the amount of money that he was going to make his eyes full of greed. Then He looked back at me.
"I'm getting off track. I came here to give you a birthday present. Your mother doesn't know about this neither do the maids. I wanted to keep it a secret from them."
He reached for something in his back pocket. Then he slowly pulled out a metallic object from behind him. His face became dull. Then he pointed the object in my face
"Die"
A bullet went through my head.
My body fell on the ground. The only thing I could see was my fathers legs as I slowly closed my eyelids.
I was dead.
Dead.
My father had killed me. From the start to the end he hated me.
My life was the worst. I had no friends, I couldn't even go outside. I lived a pathetic life from start to end.
If only I could do it all again.
If only I could be reborn.
I want to live again.

.
"Congratulates its a healthy boy"
What?
"Honey look he has your eye's"
Who is that.
Who's speaking.
Why am I not dead?
"He's going to be such a strong boy when he grows up I know it."
What the hell. I can't understand these guys. But my world is getting brighter and brighter. My eyes are opening.
"Look his eyes are opening"
I had then opened my eyes to see a woman and man hovering over me. There was a lady behind them talking to another lady.
What the hell.
Does this mean that. I have been reincarnated. I always loved isekai manga's but I never thought it would be real. If I really had been reincarnated then these two are my new parents. They don't look Japanese at all. What language were they speaking? Hold on is this even earth. Now that I think about it their clothing does seem like something you would see old fashioned nobles wearing.
"Honey look, He's smiling but he isn't crying is something wrong"
"He must have been charmed by my looks I can't blame him though I mean who wouldn't"
The Man had picked me up. He was as tall as my father. His eyes were scarlet red. He had a goatee as well. He was masculine and had long red hair. He was energetic the opposite of my piece of shit father.
"Liana look he has both of our eyes."
My mother also has red hair as well. She was a pretty woman. She looked tired after giving birth but I didn't seem to have affected her looks. She had purple eyes.
I don't know what he said but he seems pretty excited.
My dad takes me to another room. I suppose it's the living room They had a huge medieval house. They might be nobles. There were a lot of Maids and Servants. It seems like they were setting up a party for my birth.
"Are you ready Shiebe. This will be a party just for you"
I have no idea what he said but if a party is happening then I look forward to it. I never had one in my past life. My dad has sat me down on a fancy basket filled with flowers and other decorations.
"Now you just wait here until the guests start to arrive"
My father had left. I assume we wait for the guest to arrive.
A few hours later the guest had started to arrive. They were a mix of children, Noble men and women, and others in what I assume would be casual clothing.
"Look how cute he is"
"So this is Shiebe Zackaria. Wow"
Lots of people had gathered around me ticking me and staring. I still couldn't understand what they were saying maybe it was because of me being transported into a new world or was it cause I was an infant. After 30 minutes it seemed like everyone had arrived. There were about 300 people. I guess my birth is pretty special.
"Everybody listen up"
My mom and Dad were on the stairs. My dad wore a fancy suit whilst my mom wore a dress.
"Thank you for attending. As you know the Zackaria's are famous all over the world for being known as one of the top noble families. Our son Shiebe Zackaria is our Third child we want you all to welcome him into our family as he grows up I know that he will be big and strong and protect you all from the Z-Mon's. Thank You and lets get this party started"
Loud cheers followed. I didn't understand what he said but I can tell my dad gave one hell of a speech.
The rest of the night was followed with children and adults coming up to me and everyone partying. Once the guest had left my mom and dad had taken me to my room.
"Sadly your big sister and brother are away in another Continent so they are unable to see your birth"
Once again no idea what he said. My mom laid me down on my bed. She gave me a big smile
"Goodnight honey"
They turned off the light and closed the door.
I've really been reborn into another world. It seems unreal. Any person would be freaking out yet I feel so happy. Maybe it's because of how bad my previous life. I have a chance to make friends and have a caring family why would I freak out plus My other dad killed me. This time i'm going to live my best life.
Half a year passes by. It seems in this world you grow up a lot faster as a baby. I'm already able to walk and talk. I'm finally able to understand my mom and dad. I've learnt that my name is Shiebe Zackaria. My dad's name is Xeno Zackaria and my mom's name is Liana Zackaria. My Dad and Mom are both adventures and are in a huge guild. My Dads the leader but my Mom had retired as she needs to take care of me. When my mom and dad aren't around the maids usually take care of me. They are really nice like the ones in my previous life. When I'm bored I mostly explore the house and try to read books although I can't really understand them .Today my dad told me he would teach me the world from the outside. He came to my bedroom with a more serious look than usual.
"Hey Shiebe you ready"
"Yeah"
My dad sat down on my bed besides me.
"Im going to tell you about Z-Mon's and Syreums"
I have heard those phrases before. When a guest would come to our house they would say something like 'Has he awakened to his syreum' or 'He will be a fine Z-Mon Hunter'.
"First of the history of Z-Mon's. 2000 years ago weird creatures had appeared on Earth. These creatures had the general appearance of a human but they would have different coloured skin or weird looking eyeballs. These creatures identified themselves as Z-Mon's and are fully capable of speech. They are highly intelligent and have a full society of their own back in their dimension. However these Z-Mon had attacked Humanity out of nowhere and killed over half the population. It was a huge genocide that no one could have stopped apart from one person who had awakened to a power at the time. His name was Jinpachi Zackaria. This single handle destroyed over 1 million Z-Mons worldwide. However it was impossible to eliminate all the Z-Mon's. As time went on more and more people were born with these powers. They were later called syreums"
"How do these syreums work"
"Syreums are manifested in your hearts. They can range from different elements for example fire, ice, water etc.. but there are different variants to these power and different power levels based on the users heart. There are three syreums that are different though. Syreums X Y and Z. These are known as the disaster trio. These syreums each contain dangerously high power levels. These were the first three syreums to ever exist."
So this world is being ruled by an evil force. I see this place is exactly safe. I wonder if I will ever have to fight a Z-Mon.
"You are at that age to awaken a syreum so I wanted to tell you this Shiebe. Well it time for me to get to work so be careful"
"Bye Dad"
