Chapter 1: Rebirth
How will my new life be? I probably would lose my memories when I reincarnate. Oh wait, I can just carve my memories into my soul. Technically my soul is like an empty flash drive and my memories are data. If the data is protected by some sort of firewall, then it won't be erased.
Using my knowledge on the soul, I compressed a majority of my soul into a barrier. Now my soul shrank to have a dense exterior that grows along with my soul. If my soul was a mansion made of straw, now it's a hut made of diamond.
With this, I'll bring my memories and techniques into my new life.
Oh, I see the light. Alright, HELLO WORLD!!!
....................
Somewhere in a small village, there was a small wooden house. In there lay a woman struggling to keep conscience. Next to her, an old woman and a young man look at her with worry in their eyes. Both of them were assisting the woman's needs as much as possible.
Young Man: "Keep going Lelia. You're almost done."
Old Lady: "Keep going, my daughter. Kai, get the cloth ready."
Lelia: "AAaaaaaHhhhhhhH!!!"
....................
Soula's Perspective:
As I awoke to my surroundings, I noticed the warm environment I was in.
"What is this place. It's so warm, I feel so tired. Is this the womb."
Outside, I could hear voices talking. Was that English?
I then felt a pulling sensation, being a newborn and unaccustomed to pain again, it was one of the most painful experiences ever.
"AAaaaaaHhhhhhhH!!!"
Both cries of my mother and I synchronized as I finally left the womb.
And thus I was born.
....................
Several days after I am born.
My whole life so far consisted of being carried around, fed by my mother, and having long naps at random intervals.
Strangely enough, the language seems to be exactly like English except for the difference in slang. It’s probably due to the fact that slang is influenced by our surrounding culture.
The only people I met so far were my parents and an old lady who seems to be my grandmother, although which side of my family is a mystery to me.
During this week, I started feeling out the parts of my body. Although I say “feel” it’s more like I use my soul to search my body. The soul is so useful. Because it isn’t really a physical existence, it can do things similar to what a ghost can do. This includes phasing through objects (although it cannot leave it’s host body in normal circumstances), some form of telekinesis, etc.
What surprised me the most was when I tried to use telekinesis to wake my mother.
At that time, my mother was carrying me in her arms while on a rocking chair, but she fell asleep. After a while I started feeling hungry, but my mother looked so at peace. I didn’t want to wake her up, but my baby instincts were strong. So I used my soul to gently rock her awake.
You have acquired a new skill: Telekinesis (Soul Variant)

Uses the soul to will objects to move as you wish.
Of course this surprised me considering I did not expect to be reborn into an RPG world.
…
Well it doesn’t matter. In fact, it would help me view how strong my masteries over my skills would be.
After that incident, I started to experiment with different types of the commands. It turns out that the command word doesn’t matter because its the intent that matters. However, it seems that there are already predetermined and you can’t make any yourself. I found this out when I tried an [Options] command.
Me: “Show Status Window, show Skill List.”

Well my name is the same as from my last life. Although how that is, I don’t really care. I don’t fully understand all of my stats as I have nothing to compare to, but I may be an irregularity for a baby to have these stats. Also, what’s with my skills? I tried using mana and ki during the week and this is what happened. And what’s with the third skill. It seems good, but the mana conversion is quite large.
…
Eheheheh, I just can’t get used to my new last name. It was my dream to have a family ever since I was young. Besides, Voilong sounds so badass.
Alright, I need to keep training so that I can protect my new family. I will protect them with my other world knowledge and destroy our enemies.
