I don't know where I am, dream world maybe, yeah last thing I remember was sleeping and here I am in front of cat lady, definitely a dream alright, but I am confused why a cat lady not like I was into that kind of stuff,  bah whatever I should wake up soon anyway.

"Congratulation young man, due to your chivalrous act of sacrificing your own life for others has earned you a ticket to rebirth, now tell me what do you want to be born as" she says giving me a broad smile

"wait wait, I died?, moreover I sacrificed myself?  that's not popossible" the heck I am dreaming about this kinda stuff now, gas shouldn't read too much Ln from now.

"hahaha, shock from the impact huh, well let me help you remember it then" Ho the dream is continuing whatever let's see where this goes.

something flashes, I remember it, like watching a movie everything flashes back, to be precise I was returning back home, then it happened,  I saw a cutie who was on collusion course with a trtruck I normally couldn't have bothered with it, yeah I am a heartless jerk.

But somehow something was strange as if I lost control of my body and as if it reacted with a mind of its own it jumped in between the cutie and truck throwing the cutey out of the way, normally this is where you could think I could have died but wrong.

I too managed to escape or not, while in mid way of escaping the truck hit my foot sent me half flying half falling, I could have lived if not for the follow up car that did me in, sigh......still something doesn't fit.

The way I lost control of my body, it's not like how some stupid hero say cheesy lines like hey my body moved on its own to protect you and bullshit,  it's more like somebody just took control of it.

Too detailed for a dream, did i really die, eyeing cat lady in front of me, I was about to ask my question but was rudely cut off

"I don't know anything" she says nervously looking away.

"........you did it didn't you" I accuse on a wild guess, I spot a slight fidgeting movement in her

"why could I do that, I..."

I cut her off  and continue "I don't know you tell me, one thing I know is that I didn't do it, after all I couldn't have cared even for a human being so why the he'll could I risk my life saving a fucking cat?" maybe because the situation is too surreal or because I still consider this a dream I am all too calm.

"because it's cute..." she replies on reflex and looks a little offended, it's now 90% confirmed she is the culprit

"sigh...so that's why you did it"

"darn it, it just had to happen right after I lost that bet and act like this, I will make that moron pay" she muturs in a low voice "you got me, that's right I did that, so yeah as compensation I am giving you chance to choose and be whatever you WANT So hurry up and CHOOSE NOW"

A sheet of paper appears in front me skimming through it I find all kind of ability and skills, if I am going choose anything it has to be that right.

"gamer ability, heal all and mana manipulation please" I answer going with the flow.

"there are better abilities you know, but then again this makes my job easier I guess" she snaps her hand and it blacks out.

After unknown amount of time

I wake up, see it is all a dream sure could have. ?.......fuck it's real.

"Ken, you are finally awake" hmm...Japanese?, a women in her early twenties is hugging me crying.

Hnn. ?....my body feels weak, hey aren't I supposed to be a new born baby so why am a little big.

"the onmyoji's prediction were true, I almost gave up hope.....hic..hic...finally...finally" she continued to shed tears hugging me.

I wanted to say something but words refused to come out, seems like I can't speak, without knowing what to do i simply sat ther but not before long my stomach growled, the woman releases me and looks at me smiling.

Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.

" ah right you must be hungry, here drink this" She hands me a bowl that seemed to contain some liquid, drinking it I could feel something cool go down my throat filling me up.

After several gulping down and silent momentso later, several other adults are here in the room, from what I can understand from their conversation I have been asleep for 2 years since birth, though at first thought to be a demon child but later found nothings wrong after consulting with a onmyoji, it seems mother was pretty against the idea of me being a demon and to have me offed, so she fled to an onmyoji's family to have analyzed.

And thank the gods they declared I am normal human and added to it declared that I am blessed child of God, also explained that only reason I was sleeping was because my bodies need to get used to the gods blessing.

Aside from that I seem to be taking this all too calmly, gamer ability at play I guess, how nice, well I guess that's also art of the reason for me not freaking out about the reincarnation thing I guess.

After that I am left alone, only the woman....my mother I guess, seems to be taking care of me, trying out teach me all sort of things a child needs to know.

----------------------------------------

A month later,

           OK I am freaking out now even despite the gaming ability, god dammit I have been born in middle Ages it seems,  though at first I thought I was either born in a traditional family or village so I didn't mind the lack of technology, but in the past few days I have seen undeniable proof about me being in middle age and not the modern one.

Noooooo. ?.....I miss my dawn Internet,  facing he'll why did she have to reincarnate me here in this time line, sit shit shit.....I am calming down, funk it's irritating how I can't even feel emotions normally fuck anything I feel dies down easily.

Sigh...I can't even feel depressed for long, so this is how it feels to be too calm, haa.....no use thinking about it now I guess gotta make do with what I have.

Skills

Gamer Level Basic 1

All heal Level Basic 1

Mana Manipulation Level Basic 1

Hmm.....I seem to natural know how to control and use mana somehow, probably due to the skill, it's like cool liquid in my body.

Anyway feeling the liquid I take it out of my body,  imagine it changing into air and spreading around as a wave, I can somehow feel whatever it passes through.

TING

SKILL GENERATED

Mana Wave Basic Level 1

Generate a mana wave to scan your surroundings. Cost varies distance varies.

Right I forgot using mana and casting elemental spell are two different things, sigh how stupid of me, now I have no clue on how to use it, but none the less I should at least try.

After several more tries all I got was different spells on mana like mana blast, mana bolt, mana sphere fuck it it's all either mana this or mana that.

OK maybe certain stuff can only be learned after being taught, I have no idea where should I even begin to learn elemental control, since there is onmyojis there should be mages right?

----------------------------------------

Just trying out new things will be doing this as side project of sorts.
