Chapter 1
“Mark!”
Hmm..Let me sleep longer.
“Mark! Get up! Please get up!”
I heard sobbing in the background and I tried to open my eyes but they seemed so heavy that I couldn’t even lift them up.
“Please just wake up!”
Feeling something heavy on my arm I felt a wetness. They were probably tears from the person I heard that was crying.
I tried to open my eye’s again but they seemed heavier than last time.
“Shit! We’re losing him.”
“Charging...clear!”
I felt a shock through my chest. Damn it hurt.
“It’s not working! Again!”
“Clear...clear..clear!”
After doing it a few times they finally stopped. It hurt so much especially when it was done over and over again. The skin around my chest felt so raw.
*Beep*
Everything feels so heavy. I think I’m just gonna take a little nap. That might help me a little more.
“He’s gone.”
“Shoot.”
“Mark!!!!”
Man that was a nice nap. I feel so refreshed.
Opening my eyes the first thing I see was a old man staring at me.
“Hi my name’s Mark.”
Even though this guy’s staring rudely at me. I’ll just be polite and introduce myself first.
Aren’t I so nice.
He just stared at me.
“Hi my name’s Mark.”
I repeated myself and even waited patiently for him to speak. But of course he didn’t say anything to me and didn’t even blink. He was exactly like a statue. I took a step forward and the old man took a step back. I moved to the right and he moved to his left staring at me at the same distance.
“Who are you?”
I gave up being polite and went with the most straightforward approach and asked who he was.
And finally.
“My name is Yama, You mortal’s may know me as Yama the god of death.”
Oh finally a crazy person who has no manners.
Sending him a pitying gaze I tried to step backwards but he kept following me at the same distance.
“Ahh..So What might I be doing here.:
If he isn’t going to leave me alone I might as well go with it.
“I’m am sorry to say that you have died an accidental death. It was a mistake on our part by our communications department.”
“What!”
“We will compensate you with a prosperous next life so I do hope you will forgive us for ending your life early.”
“Wait! Wait! Wait a second!”
Thinking back on it before I went to sleep it did seem like their were people crying.
“I died?”
Pointing at myself the old man in front of me nodded.
“You’re the god of death.”
Pointing at the old man in front of me he nodded his head in affirmation again.
“How did I die? I remembered I was pretty healthy and I don’t remember getting in a accident.”
“The mortals have deemed you had died from over drinking at your friend's wedding.”
Ah..Now I remember. I was at my secretary's wedding drinking my heart out at not being able to find a girlfriend even though I had already become forty-four. So I died from drinking myself to death from jealousy.

“But as I had said it was a mistake on our part. Our communications department had a malfunction and your name was sent to us by accident.”
To tell you the truth I couldn’t help but find that it was kinda funny that I died from jealousy. I had a good childhood. I was pretty popular during school. I graduated out of a pretty good college. Then I became a CEO of a big company in ten years from the bottom. Now I died from drinking.
Snickering at the thought of how good my life was and how abruptly it had ended I stared at the ceiling reminiscing my life.
“Well I had a pretty good run. So what happens now?”
“You will be reincarnated without your memories. The most we can do is make your life a long and prosperous one as an apology for ending your life so soon.”
“Does that mean I get a cool power or something?”
“No powers, but we can change your fate to something a little better if you wa-.”
Cutting the god off he shouted out: “Better luck with women!”
“Umm..Ok”
Not finding a problem with it the god looked at him weirdly for speaking so abruptly.
“Well..y’know I don’t want to die a virgin again.”
Shrugging my shoulders I noticed that I was disappearing from the feet up.
“I hope we can meet on better circumstances next time. We are deeply sorry for your death.”
“See you next time.”
Waving goodbye towards the old man my whole body that was gone felt heavy and tired again before I lost consciousness again.
After Mark disappeared the god quietly stood there for a few moments before stirring and muttering: “The Tech Department malfunctioned and forgot to erase his memory before he reincarnated...Shit.”
“It’s a wonderful baby boy congratulations.”
“He’s not saying anything. Is he dead?”
“The baby's not breathing!”
Man it’s loud can’t they see I’m sleeping.
…
Wait didn’t I just die.
“He’s breathing.”
“Is he mute?”
“Try hitting his bottom.”
Feeling a sharp pain on my butt I let out a cry: “Wahh.”
Wait that was my voice.
“Oh looks like he’s fine.”
“WahWah.”
Why can’t I open my eyes! What happened to my voice! I can’t move my limbs!
“Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.”
What happened to me!?
“Looks like he’s going at it now.”
“Maybe I hit him a little too hard.”
Ahh..Now I feel really tired.
Feeling my whole body becoming heavy I decided to go back to sleep.
“He’s gone all quiet.”
“Wait did he die!”
Patting the baby in her arms she panicked and passed the baby to the doctor.
Checking the baby's pulse and breathing the doctor handed the baby back to the lady: “He’s just asleep.”
Coming from the door a nurse entered leading a man: “This way sir.”
Ignoring the nurse he focused on the woman on the bed holding the baby: “How was it?”
“Shh.. He’s sleeping.”
Rocking the baby back and forth gently she shushed the man.
“I think you will need some time together.”
Motioning towards the nurse the doctor left the room with him closing the door gently. Staring back intently the man coldly humphed before turning around leaving the room.
But before leaving he quietly said, “There was a problem in one of our research labs. I’m going to be gone for a little while.”
Staring sadly at the empty room she looked at the baby in her arms snoring gently.
“I’ll call you Adonis.”
Quietly rocking the baby she fell asleep rocking the baby in her arms.
Several Days Later
It seems I had reincarnated back to life with my memories. Man I swear that Death God guy said I wouldn’t have any of my past memories when I reincarnated. Well I guess they probably made a mistake or something. Well either way my luck. WooHooo!
The first thing I found out was that I was still on Earth. I was kinda disappointed. I mean who wouldn’t want to reincarnate into a world with magic and swords. The dream of all Otakus!!!..*cough*..I mean light novel enthusiast… Well that didn’t happen and I'm still stuck on Earth. Of course the next thing I would check is what time period Earth was at. If there's no magic then of course it's gonna be like those novels where the main character goes back into time and then leads technological advancements.
Nope. Didn’t happen. The year was 20XX one year after the year I had died. I mean that’s fine and all but there’s nothing really that great with this reincarnation thing. Man I blame those Light Novel writers. Who was it that suggested reincarnating would automatically make you the hero of any story. The only thing that’s handy about reincarnating is the fact that I can live a little longer.
Well I guess I could pretend to be a genius and test out of school. But who doesn’t like the school setting. It was the most relaxing part of my life. There wasn’t a lot of freedom that’s for sure but it's more relaxing than when I got a job.
Remember to stay in school kids. Cherish the time you had when you were in school. I mean I’m still a baby and I can barely stay awake and I have to be taken care of by other people.
Well I guess this would only mean one thing.It’s one of those stories where I’m the side character portrayed as a main character. But that’s not possible. After all I am the best at everything so how am I supposed to be a side character.
*Sigh*
It’s hard being the best. Why can’t I find out what kind of character I am!?!?!? That isn’t even the worst part. I mean I am after all a thirty year old virgin on the inside. I might not have any physical reaction now as I have this infant's body but eventually I will have some reactions which can’t be explain even if she was my mother. Everytime I see my mother I just can’t help it. Especially when I’m being breast fed. I mean who decided to make my mother so beautiful.
*Gasp*
Don’t tell me it’s that kind of story!!
Well other than that I also found out that I was born into a rich household.Money is the most sinful thing in the world isn’t it. Well I mean you could live without it. *whispers* “No you can’t.” It doesn’t buy you happiness. *whispers* “Yes it does.” It’s something that isn’t need.
WHO AM I KIDDING!!! MONEEEYY!!!
YESSSSS I WAS BORN INTO A RICH FAMILY!!!! YYYEEEESSSSSS!!!
*cough*
Well that’s all I know about my situation. All in all it isn’t to bad. I rate reincarnation a 7/10 though. If only there were more options to choose from when I reincarnate. Then it would be a 10/10 reincarnation.
