When I opened my eyes, everything felt different, almost like I had been reborn. I looked around and realized something strange had happened.
"My name is Kome Kim," I thought, trying to make sense of it all. "I'm 10 years old now... but I remember my past life clearly. I was just a normal high school boy back then. That life was boring. All I did was go to school, play games, and try to pass the time."
A memory hit me. "I was playing a game, wasn't I? And then… I died. I guess that's how I ended up here."
"My baby is cute, isn't he?" says a woman with long, light blue hair, speaking gently as she smiles down at me.
"Well, that's my mom," I thought to myself. "She's beautiful, isn't she?"
She gently hugs me up, holding me close as we walk to meet my father. He stands tall with his strong, muscular body and black hair, a presence that radiates strength.
I thought to myself, "My father is the leader of our clan. He's powerful enough to create a country of his own, yet he chooses to let the king rule instead."
I also know that my father is too kind. Some people take advantage of his kindness and try to manipulate him for their own gain.
But I know my father is fully aware that people take advantage of his kindness. He knows what they're doing, yet he allows it, almost as if he's waiting for the right moment to act.
Suddenly, a maid ran into our room, her face pale with urgency. "Lord, they've started the plan!" she exclaimed breathlessly.
The moment her words ended, my father grabbed his sword without hesitation. Turning to my mother, he said calmly, "Honey, I'm going to go."
As soon as he spoke, I felt the atmosphere shift. My mother's voice, usually gentle, now carried a chilling edge of killing intent as she softly said, "Take their heads."
When her words ended, I watched through the window as my father mounted his horse and rode off swiftly into the night with his army following close behind. The sound of hooves echoed in the distance as they disappeared into the darkness. My mother hugged me tightly, her warmth surrounding me, but the tension in the air remained.
When I reincarnated into this life, I got a system. Yeah, I know, pretty crazy, right? It feels just like something out of a manhwa, manga, or one of those light novels. "Well, maybe I am the main character?" I mused, laughing at the thought.
I searched through the books about this world and discovered some fascinating things. This world is filled with monsters, elves, dragons, and magic, along with many other living things. But what really caught my attention is that this world has gods. They possess so much power that they can shape the world however they want.
Now, I needed to plant some flowers. I found one red flower and then two more, singing softly as I worked in the garden. I could hear some people talking behind me, whispering, "Why is the lord's son planting flowers?" They laughed, mocking me.
But what can I do? This system wants me to plant some flowers in the garden after all. It feels silly, but I can't ignore it. It's part of a quest—of course, a quest! Aaa... When am I going to finish this quest? The system has been stuck at 99% for way too long!
Suddenly, I heard a loud ding from the system. "The Host has finished the quest! You are awarded 30+ (all stats)!" The announcement echoed in my mind, and a rush of excitement filled me.
"Wow, 30+ in all stats is crazy!" I exclaimed, my eyes wide with excitement as I opened the stats window.
The stats displayed before me:
Health Points (HP): 250
Strength (STR): 50
Defense (DEF): 40
Agility (AGI): 50
Magic Points (MP): 130
Intelligence (INT): 430
Charisma (CHA): 90
Luck (LCK): 70%
I couldn't believe my eyes. Each stat felt like a huge boost, especially my Intelligence!
The system displayed a new quest: "Finish your 15th birthday party!" A notification sound chimed in my mind.
