'So I died. Is this the afterlife? Now that I think of it, my life was pretty boring. Nobody's gonna miss me.'
After some amount of time, he couldn't really tell how long, something finally happened.

Welcome to Kinbrol traveler
After he had read the message Itomi's mind went blank. Once again he didn't know how much time had passed but he woke up in a dark void.
'Don't tell me that the screen lied. Please just let me be wearing a blindfold or something.'
He attempted to open his eyes only to see that he was laying down in some kind of forest. Getting up he looked at himself and noticed that he was wearing black plate armor. Blacker than anything he had ever seen. He continued looking, hoping that he was given something else to start with only to find out he had nothing else on him.
'Pretty cool that I get to start with some armor but you could've at least given me some food. Whatever, you get what you get. Now, lets go find out wether that harem is actually possible and find out how I look.'
He chose a random direction and started walking. After a few minutes oftrying to find water and maybe a horned rabbit or two, he found a small lake that where he could get some water and take a look at himself.
'Alright first things first, I've gotta check if my harem dreams are destined to never come true.'
Walking over to the water line he looks at himself, a helmet is covering his entire face. It has no way for him to see while wearing it. He has nothing obstructing his vision though. Which shouldn't be possible
'I guess my armor is magical or something? Now I'm extra happy that I started out with this. Guess I've gotta take this helmet off'
He took the helmet off of his head and looked at his face in the reflection. Or. Where his face would be if he had one. Seeing that he had no head, he fell backwards, away from the pond.
'WHAT THE FUCK. WHAT WAS THAT? I can see fine so that can't be real. Right? I have a head. I have to or else I couldn't see or hear or eat or anything.'
Moving slowly towards the water, he looked at himself once more. He again found that he had no head. He sat on the ground, trying to collect his thoughts. He would've done breathing exercises if he could breathe. Noticing that he can't breathe only made him want to breathe more. It took him a few minutes but he eventually calmed down.

'Ok so either I'm a headless human or I'm not human. I don't know which one I prefer. There's only one thing to do right now. STATUS'
Name - Itomi Hikori Race - Living armor Level 1 / 5 Skills Inventory
'Holy shit that worked? I didn't think it would. Lucky me.'
Reading through his status, he looked at his race.
'Well then, guess I'm not human. It could be worse though, what if I was a monster or something. That would really suck. Okay. Let's get to business.'
He tapped on skills with his armored hand, he was stuck on the first one contemplated wether or not to continue but he managed to read the second one aswell, hoping to get an OP protagonist skill.

'That's it. This isn't so bad. Maybe my harem dreams can still come true? That would make all of this okay. Maybe.'
He put the helmet back on and contemplated what to do next.
'Maybe find a town or something? Tell them that I'm an adventurer or something? Wait. Can I even talk without being worn?'
He tried to no avail to tell the air that he was an adventurer.
'Okay, maybe I can get in without talking at all? Whatever it is I've got to find the damn town first.'
There was a small flowing out of the lake he chose that as his path to follow. He was pretty sure that people usually lived near flowing water.
After about ten minutes of walking the stream widened, more than usual. It was now abotu six feet across and four feet deep, he could still cross it but he might not be able to later. Keeping that in mind he continued walking, thinking about how large he wanted his harem to be.
'Maybe five? No that's too little. Six? I think six should be just right. Seven might be too much. Oh but what if the six want to add more? Could I really say no to that? Okay, final decision. Eight women, no more. Unless they ask for more. Also, no men.'
Looking towards there was good news and bad news. Good news, he saw a village in the distance. Bad news, it was on fire.
'Oh shit. Maybe if I can save someone my harem can get started?'
So he started running towards the burning village, with dreams of a harem in mind even if he didn't have Non Biological he would'nt feel fatigue, only hope, hope and maybe just maybe, some excitement. Excitement for the adventures to come, excitement for the harem to build, and excitement for the riches to gain.
