Once he started screaming the giants seemed pleased like they took pleasure in the fact that they could scare him to death. Soon he calmed down since he was moved away from the giants into a room with childrens toys and a crib. He was put in the crib and then left alone. Now that he had a chance to calm down he started thinking about how this shit happend. Thinking back he realised that he should be dead, I mean come on who could survive getting run over like he did. Then his mind realised something. He was killed by a truck, then woke up surrounded by giants unable to move… That sounded ALOT like a few of the reincarnation novel he used to read.
With that realisation his mind started working overdrive. *Is it possible? Could I really have reincarnated? If so, does magic exist? Have I gone the nobel or the peasant “route”?* All those questions and many more went through his head in a matter of seconds. After a few minutes of such hysteria he realised that it didn’t really matter. All he could do was do the best with what he had been given. So he started thinking about what he knew to be true,what could possibly be true and what he should do from here on out.
With those thoughts he came up with a few things:
1. Assuming he had reincarnated there was a few things to be done.
1. Learn the language.
2. Find out if there is a game like system in the world.
3. Find out if there are beast people and or elves and if so pay them a visit.
4. Get strong. There are several reasons for this.
1. Its always good to be strong
2. If this is like a reincarnation novel with magic beast then strength is neccissary
3. Females like strong men.
5. Find out if there is magic and if so try to learn it.
6. explore, possibly find a way home if there is one or just have fun depending on what he learns up to this point.
2. Assuming this wasn’t a reincarnation meaning its either a hallucination or a dream in which case he can pretend it’s a reincarnation until he wakes up or gets medical attention since people would notice if he goes acting all wierd while he’s hallucinating.
Soon after he had come up with these guidelines he felt really tired and fell asleep.
3 years later
I woke up with a jolt and wondered where the hell I was before remembering.* right truck, death, rebirth* and that was all 3 years ago but I still haven’t got accustomed to this life. Though I have learned how to walk and talk ,yey. I can also read though my new parents are not aware of that fact and no it’s not because of some universal language shit or so, it’s all because of my hard work… NOT the fact that they speak and write in english..., nope not at all.
The reason my parents are not aware of my amazing reading skills is sadly that they have little time to care for me. No I don’t mean that they are cold uncaring parents, they love me dearly but the facts are that they have to work to keep us fed and reasonably well of. Dad is a blacksmith and mum is a chef. Now you may think that they could bring me around with them and they did in the beginning but the soon realised that I didn’t need the supervision. They come home for lunch so I don’t get hungry but otherwise they leave me to do what I want really. It’s really nice to be able to do what I want without having to appear normal.
Now you may think that being reincarnated I already have created many things and started training in magic because yes it exists but then you would be wrong. From the few thing I have been able to pick up this is indeed a planet with magical beasts. So far I have been reading about magic,blacksmithing and cooking. Well I can’t read about anything else since we only have books about these topics. We only have one book about magic and it’s magic for dummies which clearly states that it’s impossible to start doing magic before the age of 3(for humans) because our bodies haven't created the necessary channels for it.
On other news this world is called Omnis the same as the game I wanted to play and it’s about the same since both are medieval with magic. I’m wondering if I was reincarnated into the game as reality. But enough of that which I have no way to find out if its true or not. On to the most awesome thing. As said humans can't start using magic before the age of 3 and guess what age I am… 3 as of today. That means that I will finally learn the basic magic that everyone can do [inspect] which according to the book is a semi active skill that in passive form allows you to see your status and in active form allows you to inspect other things.
Speak of the devils here comes my parents so it seems it’s time for me to learn [inspect].
“Where is my little champion” Jonathan says.
Oh right I haven’t told you guys about my family have I. Well my dad is Jonathan Smith and he is about 1.85 meters which for those who don’t use the metric system is 6’1. He has black hair,blue eyes and is reasonably good looking. Muscular but not to the bodybuilder standard. My mum is Eleanor Smith and is 1.7 meters which is 5’7 feet. She’s good looking with blonde hair, brown eyes and reasonably large breasts which I have to say I have enjoyed. Lastly we have me. I am Eric Smith and well my height doesn’t really matter since i’m still growing but I have light brown hair and extremely blood red eyes. Now you may think that there's no way that that is normal and that is true but I was born with a slight defect that caused my irises to become blood red. The cause was healed within a day of them noticing but luck...erm hmm sadly the effects were permanent. Oh well back to the story.
“Over here dad.” I say.
“Ah there you are, well are you ready to learn [inspect]?”
“Of course I am” I say a bit annoyed. I don’t really know why but I have always been treated very maturely so I always get annoyed when they treat me like the child I actually am.
“Now now don’t get mad.” mum says.
“Fine now how do I learn [inspect]?”
“It’s really easy actually. All we need to do is inject man into you so your body get a feel for it and then you just say status” mum says.
“...really”
“yes really. now prepare yourself this might itch a bit.” mum says before she inject her mana into me.
It feels like the war of ants all over my entire body for a few seconds before the feeling stops and mum steps back.
“now try saying status” mum says.

Skills Inspect(Passive/active) Rank F Lvl Beginner 1
A skill that allows you to inspect things.
Passive: can call up your own status through the command status.
Active : can inspect other things and get information on them.
Higher levels give more information
Linguistics(Passive) Rank F Lvl N/A
A skill that allows you to read/write and speak in different languages
Current languages:
* Japanese(Mastered)
* English(Mastered)
* Latin(write/read only(Master Lv 50))(speech beginner lvl 1)
Now you might wonder what Mastered and F rank means. Here is a short run down. Skills are separated in 2 ways the first is ranks from F to A followed by S rank. These ranking represents how difficult and or potentially dangerous a skill is. For example a meteor strike skill would be A or S ranked skill. The second way is the skills Level. The Level represents one's mastery over a skill and is divided into beginner,apprentice and master each with 100 Levels. When you reach Master Lvl 100 it changes to Mastered. Now Mastered does not necissarily mean that it can’t be improved. Usually it means that but in cases like linguistics it means read/write and speak fluently.
As said previously the ranking could also represent how difficult a skill is and that means how hard it is to Lvl it. For Examples linguistics level very easy while things like swordsmanship are harder to level. Now back to the story.
“How do you close it?”I ask my parents.
“Just think that you are closing it.” mum says.
“Oh okey”
“ well how did it look?” dad asks.
“I don’t know, how should it look?”
“Well you’re 3 so the stats should be around 5” says mum
“Then it looks pretty normal”
“What was it you were concerned about?” dad asks.
“Ehm … It was why I saw no skills even though I should have gotten inspect.”
“Oh that's because you have to say [show{skills}]” dad says.
“Oh that's it?” mum asks looking suspicious.
“Yeah” I say nervously.
“Mhm” mum says
“Well now you can start training your mana pool” dad says
“Really?” I ask.
“Yes after your body has received its first burst of mana it can start gathering it by itself but you should try to help your body along by meditating to increase your mana pool. The bigger your mana pool becomes the more magic you can do as well as higher tiered magic.” mum says.
“But you shouldn’t expect it to work right away.” dad says.
“That's right, the reason we tell you this now is that it usually takes a few years to get the hang of meditating. But try searching for the core of yourself and when you find it expand it until it no longer possible and then compress it as much as you can and repeat that action. This is what everyone does including us even now.” mum says.
“Okey” I say.
“Well now we need to go work so see ya at lunch” dad says.
After they left I sat still in a lotus position which is a very famous meditation pose from my world.
* Now look for the core was it* I think as I started searching my mind.
*The core should be in the center so I imagine myself as a entity inside my own head and start going into the middle.*
After a few minutes I reached a ocean that continued for what seemed like forever.
*This has to be it* I thought and was just about to start filling it when I heard my parents come in.
*Did they forget something* I thought so I opened my eyes but instead of our home i saw another blue screen:
Meditation(Active) Rank D Lvl Beginner 5
A skill that allows you to meditate in silence.
During meditation follow benefits are active:
* Higher mana reg.
* Higher chance of enlightenment
* High speed thinking.
* You think so fast it seems like forever.
* Can lead to increased Mana Pool.
*Oh wasn't this supposed to take years?* I thought but quickly I remembered that my parents had come home so I asked: “Did you forget something?”
“No it’s lunch kiddo” Dad says.
*Oh damn how time flew* I thought
“Really, it shouldn’t have been that long right?” I asked.
“Haha, We forgot to tell you when meditating time flies by. But for you to be that lost you must have been really close to getting the hang of meditation. Just hang in there, you were always a smart kid so you will get it eventually.” dad says
*Yeah, sorry dad, I already know how to meditate and it seems i got it up to level 5 as well.*
“I know don’t worry, I’ll show you that I will be meditating with the year.”
“Haha good luck with that son.”
After a quick lunch dad goes back to work sadly mum didn’t come home but since she works in a restaurant I don’t have to worry about her getting food. I continue meditating and filling my Mana Pool till evening then we have dinner and go to bed.
4 years later
Not much has happened these past 4 years. I have continued training my Mana Pool. I showed my parents that I could meditate a year after I learnt the skill and they were amazed saying thing like genius and such… No kidding I have the title Child Prodigy after all. Well You might wonder why I haven’t tried using magic but the reason is simple. If you use a magic which you have no affinity with it will consume much more mana than normal, up to a hundred times more if you’re unlucky or have negative affinity with that element. Yeah apparently negative affinity is a thing where you would actually take more damage and have reduced defence against that element. While I know I haven’t any negative affinity if something goes wrong I could die so I decided to wait until it's normal to start training magic which apparently is at the age of 12.
But enough of that back to the fun stuff. I am now old enough to start physical training. That means I will start by helping mum and dad with their work such as carrying supplies for mum or help dad with carrying metals to the forge. I will also get some basics about swordsmanship. Apparently that is something everyone knows and trains to some degree. This is gonna be so fun.
5 years later
For 5 years I have trained in swordsmanship as well as helping my parent out and I have learned a lot. I have even gained some skills in cooking and blacksmithing. I will also start to learn about magic from now on. The have a little school were a member of the church will teach us about magic. Speaking of religion, It’s pretty much like how Sweden had it back home. You can worship which god you want or choose not to worship at all. The church don’t mind as long as you don’t commit evil acts. Now back to the fun. There will be some announcement from the oracles today that has everyone hyped. Everyone gathers in front of a big magic crystal in the town center. It is only used whenever big important messages for the whole kingdom. Currently it is showing the oracles tower. I see the head Oracle step out onto a platform. She coughs twice and then begins her speech.
“We oracles has perceived that the demons have started moving. Now don’t be alarmed. For while they may have started to move they won’t be ready for another few years. The minute we oracles received this knowledge we asked the gods for their help and the gods answered. 4 years from now our land will be flooded with gaijins. People chosen by the gods to help us. They will come and help us deal with the demons. Now we have 4 years to prepare so you better get started.”
The second she said her last words she returned to the tower and the crystal stopped playing. The Mayor starts talking about what wewil do and yada yada yada I stopped listening. What I can’t get out of my head is the fact that chosen by god templete is something that many games has used to explain players. *So is this the Omnis Online game and if so WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK. I died on the day the game was gonna be released but the players don’t show up until 16 years later??? OH well, if it’s true that means I can meet my friends and family again and if not then I’ll just hope the gaijins aren’t assholes. I’ll find out in 4 years.
4 years later
Now is the time. I have trained in my magic,my swordsmanship and helped my family out as much as I possibly can but now it’s time for adventure. I hope I can join one of the gaijin groups and set out for beautiful adventure as well as trying to find out if they are player and if my friends are here. I have talked about it with my parents and they are okay with it. After all I am a prodigy as well as a decent fighter and low tiered magician. Oh right you guys don’t know how awesomely strong I have become. Well just for you*[Status]*
Status Name Eric Smith Gender Male Level 10 Age 16 EXP to next Level 100/565 Race Human Class N/A Titles otherworlder,child prodigy, Affiliation(s) N/A Affliction(s) restrained by gods Stats Health 480 Mana 700 Health reg 0.37/min Mana reg 0.41/min Strength 40 Agility 40 Intelligence 60 Wisdom 60 Endurance 40 Dexterity 41 Luck 30 Faith N/A Remaining Points 0 Affinities(%)/Resistance(%) Fire 5/2.5 Water 5/2.5 Earth 5/2.5 Wind 5/2.5 Holy 1/0.5 Demonic -0.5/-1 Light 0/0 Dark 0/0 Neutral 5/2.5 Skills
As you can see a few things has changed. For one I have gotten stronger. I am basically an E ranked adventurer stat wise. Though sadly I have gotten a negative affinity. It apparently has to do with my holy affinity that slowly made my demonic affinity worse though I have no problems with that as demonic magic is BAD. Well if you haven’t figured it out with the message 4 years ago about demons on the move. Demons exists. They are bad,evil things that will eat us if they can or so i'm told. Now you should not mix them up with the devils. Devils are all races such as vampire,succubi etc. yeay those exists as well on a side note so does dwarfs,elves and beastmen. Now back to devils. The Devils aren’t inherently evil, they can choose just like we humans can choose. Demons on the other hand only want destruction, it's what they were born to do.Back to affinities.
Affinities have opposites or at least light is opposite to dark and holy is opposite to demonic. It is said that it is impossible to have both light and dark or holy and demonic to 100%. There have been people that got them both to 50% for light and dark that is. No one has had both holy and demonic.but if they got one to 51% the other went down to 49 So apparently it’s impossible to reach higher with those 2 affinites. Well one just have to choose or be satisfied with 50%.
On another note I have realised that my godly birth have caused me to be a bit different like the fact I can place status points when I level up while normal people gets it auto assigned for them. I have a feeling that the gaijins will also be able to place their points. I’m starting to feel like half gaijin half normal person. Now you might just want to see my skills hmm? Well of course you do but I won't bother you with full explanations so here's the short version [List {skills}]

Well there you have it now some of you may be wondering why I still have no class. Well It’s simply because I can’t decide what to pursue. Oh well now it’s time for bed. Tomorrow the gaijins arrive and then it’s off to adventures but for now sleep.
