'Life is short, so enjoy it to the fullest. I never knew that life would be too short.'
Feeling the warm blood all over his face, the young man glances at his surroundings.
'Why is the world upside-down? No, wait, the car is the one that's been turned over.'
Another car accident, at least that's what he would've thought if he saw it at the news. Hell, he doesn't even check the news.
It was sad, but this is just how life is. One could say that life is like a hardcore game. You can screw it all over with a bad choice. It can throw all sorts of misfortune your way, and it can all end so suddenly without you being able to turn it back around.
'Life... is a such trash game.'
A tear came down his eye. As he gritted his teeth to the pain he felt, looking down, or rather up his body, he found his chest had been impaled with a pole.
"Ugh... Damn it all..."
Couldn't I at least have a redo button? He thought, but there was no full restar, there is no new game, and there is no chance to rewind time.
But maybe, just maybe, there could be a chance of another life? He always did believe that there could be reincarnation, although he also considered he could just go straight to hell.
As his consciousness started to slip, he firmly wished that there WAS another chance, to be isekai'd into some other world, to live his life to the fullest. All he did in this life was just living as a disappointment to his family, and to himself, couldn't he get another chance to redeem himself!?
'I wonder... How would my family react to this?'
He wishes... He could also see their worry instead of their cold gaze.
The next thing he saw was just pure darkness engulfing his view, with his consciousness fading.
...
His consciousness awakens, the sight of the universe all around surprising him.
He didn't have any eyes, but he could see. He didn't have a body, but he could feel he didn't have a brain, yet thoughts engulfed his mind.
'What is this? Where am I?'
In a second, or maybe an eternity, a screen appeared in front. Blue, like the system screens he saw in manga.
[Would you like to inherit the Reincarnator System?]
'Reincarnation?'
Was it real? Was this real? Dream or reality, he couldn't help but feel excited, a new chance awaited him, and perhaps a new world alongside it.
He didn't have to say anything. The system seemed to have understood what he wanted, reading his soul or mind perhaps.
[Integrating...]
[Welcome to the Reincarnator System! Would you like to start a new life?]
'Yes.'
[Selecting a random world...]
Would it be a world of swords and magic? A world with dragons and dungeons? A sci-fi world doesn't sound bad either.
[World Selected]
[Please choose one perk!]
'A perk?'
Soon, a screen appeared with three options
[Perk Select]
[• Starting Stat Points
[• Good Birthplace
[• Random Skill Box
'The choices seem to confirm the existence of a system in the other world.'
He was happy with just that, but a starting perk to go along with his reincarnation sounded great.
The starting stat points seem nice, but the amount couldn't be that great, right? As for the second option, it sounds nice, but what he really wanted was a cheat skill.
If he gained an overpowered skill, even a bad start wouldn't stop him from reaching success!
'Would it be wise to gamble, though?'
He thought for a while before inwardly grinning.
'The answer is YES!'
His luck stat should be over 9000 if he gained this system, so gambling it off seemed rational to him.
[Reincarnation is starting now]
[The skill you've gained is...]
'What is it? What is it!?'
If he had any hands, he would be clenching them tightly as he awaited the skill he would receive.
[New Skill gained!]
[Howl]
'...What!? What kind of skill is this- Uhh...'
His vision started to dim, and with his consciousness slowly fading, the system does its thing.
[Reincarnation Start!]
...
Late in the evening, at the great stronghold city of Daimverge, held the start of an aspiring adventurer's humble beginning.
"Hey, uh, sir?"
A blonde young man with purple eyes approached the Adventurer Guild's receptionist.
"What, boy?"
The stern looking old man gaze seems to peer into the boy's soul, making him gulp in nervousness. Finding the courage to speak once more, he stood firm with his chin up, huffing his chest a bit.
"I'd like to become an adventure!"
The old man stared before scoffing.
"You sure you want to start now?"
"Yes, sir! I'm very sure!"
The old man raised an eyebrow.
"Do you know what year it is, boy?"
"Uh, the 200th year?"
The boy said hesitantly, scratching his head as his gaze became unsure.
"Do you know why I asked?"
"N-no... Why?"
The old man then gazed to the right, straight at the wall. Though his gaze was pointed towards the dungeon's direction.
"This year... Some nasty vermin is about to spawn."
And inside that dungeon, on an unknown floor...
Was the intense and rather dangerous start of a reincarnator's life.
