Having my consciousness transferred is a more than just uncomfortable experience. It starts with myself being compressed and pushed around in what felt like a numerous times curving and twisting tunnel. Sometimes I would be stretched and having me turned into a long and thin line. My new form would then make a complete turnaround by being twisted into a spiral, then deformed into a cube, while the direction I am being pushed kept on changing. So I change from cube back into a ball to once again being stretched around. All this is happening within three seconds and continue for ten full seconds. Utter and complete hell! Adding to that I just really wanted to vomit out all my insides.
Luckily ten minutes are only that and I am relieved of this madness. I tried looking around, but all I could see was darkness, again. At the least I can hear a loud beat, which sounds suspiciously like a heartbeat. In fact, it must be a heartbeat, thus I can conclude to still be an unborn baby and not blinded by some divine intervention. Oh talking about divine intervention...
“Status!”
Name: Hinata Hyuga Level: 1 Health: 80/80 Mana: 0 Physical E:
100/100 Spiritual E:
1320/1320 Strength: 2 Constitution: 2 Dexterity: 4 Intelligence: 68 Wisdom: 59 Charisma: 3 Stat Points: 5 Talent Points: 1
Titles: Hyuga Heiress Reincarnated Soul Champion of the Rabbit Goddess
At the first glance my status is too unbalanced and I can only bet that my titles are at fault here. So let's take a look at my most infamous title.
Champion of the Rabbit Goddess
The Rabbit Goddess, Kaguya Otsutsuki gave you her blessing and with it a part of her chakra.
Your body will slowly adapt to her chakra and will bring great changes.
Allows the holder to speak with her will in the physical realm despite the distance to it.
+50 Physical & Spiritual Energy per level
+1 to all your stats per level
Damn. It is worse than I assumed. Doesn't that mean I might slowly turn into a splitting image of her or is that just a reference to unlocking the Rinnegan? I am not even sure whether a Hyuuga can unlock the Rinnegan, but what I do remember is that in one of the Naruto movies, Hinata unlocked a upgraded version of the Byakugan, the so called Tenseigan. How? She did it similar to what is happening with me right now by inherinting chakra of Hamura Otsutsuki, one of the Rabbit Goddess' children. Wouldn't that be mighty fitting, giving me power that literally translates to 'Reincarnation Eye'(Tenseigan). Hopefully those changes won't turn me into a second Kaguya.
Despite my possible physical appearance, that second part might be my biggest boon or my worst pain. The will that is mentioned refers to an artificial human that the Rabbit Goddess unleashed right before her sealing, Black Zetsu. He is secretly working on his creators revival by manipulating various people. So where is the problem with me being able to talk to him? I can safely assume that he also knows that I will soon set foot into this world, which in turn will make me into his ally. In fact, since the moment I got that troublesome 'blessing', I was forced to commit on enslaving humanity. Oh joy!
Anyway it's not like Zetsu will only be trouble. He is probably one of the best spies you could have and might steal valuable resources for me.
The additional stat boost are also very welcome.
Reincarnated Soul
You have died and managed to be successfully reborn into a new body, while keeping your own memories.
The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
Keeping your memories means that you keep your mental stats with each reincarnation.
Additionally your body will grow up twice as fast to adapt to your stronger mind.
I will grow up twice as fast? Isn't that going to be a huge problem? I will have the body of a ten year old once I turn five. It is not hard to predict how people will look at my faster growth rate, especially if I might suddenly sprout horns because of that annoying blessing. Well, I will have to leave Konoha anyway, before I undergo any drastic physical changes and this title just pushed the date forward. At least I am lucky enough to keep my mind and not turn into a nonsense blabbering, little baby.
Hyuga Heiress
You are the firstborn of Hiashi Hyuga, the current Patriarch, which makes you the current heir.
Thanks to your lineage your stats will increase.
+2 Dex per level
+1 Int per level
+1 Wis per level
+1 Cha per level
Simple and clean with no troublesome strings attached. This is how a title should look like and I approve.
With the titles inspected I can finally take a closer look at my status screen. My health and physical stats are low as one would expect from a baby, while my mental stats are boosted thanks to being reincarnated. As a result my so called spiritual energy is higher than my physical one.
That right here is actually pretty interesting. Wouldn't it be enough to just have and entry for 'chakra' instead of splitting it into physical and spiritual? What I do remember from the story is that chakra is split into two aspects: Physical and spiritual energy. Shinobi 'create' the traditional chakra by mixing physical and spiritual energy together and experts even go as far as to adjust their mixing ratio, which is how Genjutsus and the Nara shadow techniques exist.
I will have to look into that further once I start training.
There are still two things on my status that I didn't expect; a mana indicator and talent points. Originally the description of the game interface I chose, explained that it wouldn't show stuff that I did not have. which would mean that as there is a number for 'mana' it just might be possible to get mana and learn how to use it. I can only assume that I am not capable of utilizing mana as there is no mana in the environment to slowly absorb. Oh well at least I know there is a possibility. Next have a look at talent points!
Talent Points are used to unlock special abilities to enhance body and mind.
You are awarded a Talent Point on level 1 and from thereon every time you earn ten new level.
So that means on level 11 I would get a new point to spend.
"Talent screen!"
Strength: Muscle Growth (Power)
Improved Grip Strength Constitution: Additional Physical Energy
Enhanced Stamina Dexterity:
Improved Body Control
Muscle Growth (Speed) Intelligence: Parallel Processing
Increased Processing Speed
Improved Energy Control Wisdom: Additional Spiritual Energy
Eidetic Memory
Memory Mindscape Charisma: Pretty Face
Innocent Lie
First of all this is a lot. What I am looking for is most likely something passive that will help me with my training speed. As I don't know in which direction I plan to train in, I will go for one of the mental talents. Eidetic Memory, Parallel Processing and Increased Procesing Speed are here the clear winners. So let me think about it for a moment.
Eidetic Memory will allow me safe information in perfect detail until I find a way to safe it away, maybe even through a following talent. It might very well be that choosing Eidetic Memory will lead to a talent tree for processing Information. Might sound nice, but doesn't necessarily increase my training speed. It will just turn me into a walking library.
Increased Processing Speed might help learning faster and probably also improves my perception, but I am going to pick Parallel Processing. My reasons are really simple. Doing two things at once will lead to double my training speed. I will no longer have to spend time solely to improving my chakra control and can instead train mind and body at the same time. Clearly the best choice.
Paralell Processing Requirement: 100 Intelligence or being at level 1
Allows the user to split her conciousness to do multiple tasks at the same time.
1 Split plus an additional for at 100 Int, 200 Int, 300 Int and so on.
Do you wish to spend a Talent Point for 'Parallel Processing'?
Lucky~ I might not be smart enough to get but luckily I am still level 1. I didn't look at the requirements for the other stuff, but that would explain why my choices for the physical parts seemed rather underwhelming.
Learned 'Parallel Processing'
Woah. That feels really weird. Having another me in my head is an absolutely weird feeling. For now I ordered the other me to think about a way to leave Konoha as that will have to happen.
With this I am finally done with the status screen and can relax for a moment.
I didn't realize it before, but it certainly is comfortable here. A relaxing heartbeat and a warm environment. Actually how long am I supposed to wait here? I wouldn't have a problem with spending a monther or two longer here.
And so I sleep until I am pushed around and just know that soon I will be breathing again.
Couldn't they give me just one or two days more?
