"Hay Nakamura-chan, wake up," Those were the last words I heard after I hit my head on the corner of my desk. My name is Akari Nakamura. And as you might have guessed, I'm dying. As a weak fragile schoolgirl, I was bullied a lot. It usually doesn't escalate if I gave them my money, but today I lost my wallet on my way to the school. I was prepared for some beating, but one of the bullies pushed me and I fell and hit my head. So, what now? Actually I don't know. I'm stuck in black, endless void. Is this what they call afterlife? Am I here to lose my memories and be reborn like in Hinduism or buddhism? I've been here for hours. At least it felt like hours. But nothing has happened yet. Might as well test out some stuff.

"Hello?" My voice echoed like in some cave.

So I can talk here. Lets try running and walking around. I moved my legs but nothing happened. I tried again and suddenly I felt something under them. It felt like a surface under water but It wasn't slippery. I felt weird walking around. Every time I tried to move it felt sluggish and heavy. So I just walked and walked. I didn't feel any exhaustion. After hours and hours of walking I saw something in the distance. It was something shining with golden light. So I ran that way. It was the first thing I found in this boundless black void- of course I would try to find out what it was.

Finally, I saw what the thing emitting that golden light was. It looked like a game menu? I was pretty good at playing games when I was alive. I loved strategic and creative games. But this looked like something from an RPG. I came close enough to see what was written in that golden menu. It had a lot of decoration that looked like plants around the frame. My eyes opened wide when I saw the title of the menu.

REINCARNATION MENU Name None Race None Age None Skills 0/3

Available Skills

Available Races

This looks like a character creation menu. So I'm getting reincarnated? Does everyone get a chance to choose their skills and race or am I special? Whichever way it is, this is my chance to be strong so nobody will try to bully me again. It looks like I can choose 3 skills so let's start with skills. As I clicked (Available skills) suddenly a warning message popped up.

SOME SKILLS CAN LOCK CERTAIN RACES DUE TO COMPATIBILITY. DO YOU STILL WANT TO START WITH SKILLS? YES NO

Well I guess I should think about it first. If I choose skills that aren't compatible with some races then those races would be locked. It's probably so I'm not something like a demon with holy magic. Still, let's start with skills. If I choose some race then skills not compatible with that race would be locked. I think that it would be better to start with skills so I can choose whatever skill I want. After thinking for a minute I hit (yes).

Skill list menu showed up and there were so many skills to choose from. Let's start with something like a system from anime and manga. After a few minutes of browsing the list I didn't find anything. At least I think there is nothing because none of the skills has a description. WHAT IS THIS CUSTOMER SERVICE?! IF THIS WAS A GAME I WOULD BE REFUNDING IT RIGHT NOW!

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

Well I found something that could be helpful in a different world. If my guess is right, I will be reincarnated into a world with magic. In my opinion, in the fantasy world the best thing to start with would be a skill named BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE. Not everyone in anime or manga has a common knowledge after reincarnation. If my guess is right then this skill should provide me with at least basic knowledge about the world I'm going to live in. After clicking on a skill, another menu appeard.

SELECTING SKILLS IS UNCHANGEABLE. DO YOU STILL WANT TO CHOOSE THIS SKILL? YES NO

Hesitation has taken over my mind but after a few seconds my finger slowly pushed yes. My head started to hurt like hell. I wasn't expecting it so I fell on my bottom. After a few seconds it stopped. Ah, what was that?? Little shaken, I looked around a few times and then stood up again. In front of me there was still a skill menu but the number of skills I can choose has changed. The number changed from 0/3 to 1/3.

It will hurt like that another 2 times?! I looked annoyed at the skill menu and I suddenly realized something. EVERY SKILL HAD DESCRIPTION NOW! So the skills can take effect even if I'm still here? If That's true I can train myself using skills I choose before getting reincarnated. I don't know if it was fate or curiosity but I remembered a skill that caught my attention when I was browsing the skill list.

EVOLUTION

Normally, living things evolve generationally, but the user of this skill gains the ability to evolve after gaining enough evolution percentage.

The strongest beings that ever lived had this skill. So far, according to the documentation, no specimen of a humanoid being with this skill has been found.

I was surprised. This skill is screaming: monsterous strength! Without hesitation i clicked through warning message and took this skill. My body started to burn. It felt like every cell of my body was changing. It took several minutes of intense pain before it stopped. I even began to regret my decision in the middle of it, but it was too late.

Once the pain stopped, I realized I was lying curled up on the ground. After few tries of standing up I finally stood back in front of the skill menu. A message appeared.

DUE TO GETTING SKILL (EVOLUTION) NEW KNOWLEDGE WAS INSTALLED IN THE (BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE)

Another surprise was waiting for me on screen. Every skill available had something called EVOLUTION PATH. IF MY GUESS IS RIGHT THEN DUE TO HAVING SKILL EVOLUTION I CAN EVOLVE SKILLS! That sounds overpowered. Browsing skill once more i found another interesting skill.

CREATE SERVANT

Allows user to create their own servent. Servant can be design however user decides to, but bigger and stronger servants with their own consciousness require more magical energy.

Permanent Servant costs millions of mana depending on the size and intelligence of the servant.

Does that mean I can create my own army just from magic?! So i can just build my own kingdom out of my magical servants? This sounds op too but I would need lots of magic to create that many servants.

Ok let's get it before I start to hesitate. After another round of pain. This time it was the head again. After that opened the list of races. There was lots of interesting and cool races like dragonoids and demons, but what caught my attention was (ALATUS) race.

Alatus

Basic description: A race of winged people. Often with a beautiful appearance. Alatus can be recognized by the two triangles that they have on each cheek of their face.

Info: A peaceful ancient race that went extinct hundreds of years ago. This race once had a huge civilization. Because they hated war and had enormous military power, they kept the world at peace. One day, despite their best efforts, war broke out. The humans decided they wanted more and that's why the Alatus joined forces with the other races and fought against the humans. Despite all that, they lost because of a human hero.

Racial skills: Summon Tool

(Due to the fact that the user has the evolution skill, he starts from the lowest level of Alatus. At the beginning, the user does not have wings, but they can be obtained through gradual evolution. The user also gets a bonus for starting from the lowest level.)

I imagine myself flying through the sky and Immediately pushed ALATUS Race. Of course, another warning appeared, but I clicked through that too. Suddenly my head starts to get dizzy, and my eyelids become heavy. I fell down, and everything turned black. No training for me I guess.
