1 Prologue - Unwanted Reincarnation

My name is...

When I was a kid, they said I was very talented, surpassing the average.

But the great me was unmoved. I don't have the drive and ambitions.

I went to school, made few friends, and finished school. My friends are fun but they got boring later on. We split up and entered the adult world.

Later, I found out that friends aren't that necessary.

I was talented when I was a kid and that didn't change. Work was easy, I paid my gratitude to my parents easily, and lived alone in an average apartment.

Actually, if I want to, I can change the world... probably.

But there's nothing that pushes me to do it. My fellow humans are idiots. They are so predictable.

No matter what they do, they always lose to me.

Even though I don't have friends, I have enemies... kinda. Self-proclaimed "enemies" but they were actually losers.

Don't you have a life? Stop getting your face shoved on the dirt by me.

Truly stupid.

During that period of my middle-age, I still live alone. Romance sucks. I don't know why people fall for it. No matter how beautiful, they will turn old and ugly. All of the grandmas are examples.

Do you want to have a grandma wife in the future? Then go marry any girl.

They say love is for support. Maybe it's because I'm too perfect that women are unnecessary.

But then others say they are our split half.

No, thank you.

I'm already complete on my own.

Sex? Not interested. I have my libido but I don't want to get tired.

Good thing though, life wasn't that boring, there's lots of entertainment.

I never gave that much time to work since it's very easy and doesn't need much of my effort. All my time was used for reading books, watching anything on the internet, and playing games.

I enjoyed every second of it. Midway, I learned that my good looks are wasted since I got fat and also getting older.

I'm not perfect now, but I'm happy.

Others may say that I'm arrogant and ignorant at the same time. I'm uncaring, selfish, and a waste.

However, I enjoyed my life. A long and happy life. Isn't that everyone's goal? They're just jealous.

Thus, I died.

I wonder who attended my funeral. Since I died out of old age, my parents wouldn't be around, of course. My friends before forgot about me for sure.

But...

I don't know why.

Before I go to the afterlife, if there is any, I saw my funeral.

At first, I thought,

Someone held a funeral for me?

I looked and saw, who is it? Why are you crying for me? Are you my neighbor or are you a secret fan?

If you are a secret fan, you must be blind. I'm old, fat, and ugly when I died.

"Grandpa,"

It was a shock. When did I have a child first?!

I don't go to bars. Even if I'm defenseless, no woman would take advantage of me. That someone must be pretty insane.

"You lived a sad and lonely life, right?"

"I don't know you but I knew you were always alone."

Sad and lonely?

That's far from true.

"I always hear you cry in some nights..."

"No one helped you when you were tired. No one welcomed you when you come home. You are all alone for years."

I don't need it.

"I'm a stranger but I regret not approaching you back then. Even if I just open my ears to you, that would be a big help."

Woman, good thing you didn't do that. Talking to complete strangers is dangerous. I wish next time you would think more carefully.

"This is all I can do, give you a proper burial. This may be just me relieving myself from guilt but I hope you accept it."

Hayss... I accept, I accept. What a good girl. I didn't think that getting taken care of is such a good feeling.

"May God bless you in the afterlife."

God, huh...

I looked around and saw the light behind. This must be heaven, I am a hundred percent sure that if hell exists then I would go there.

That proves hell doesn't exist.

"God, I know this is absurd but if you can, give him another chance."

Another chance? I'm good.

I don't want to live another life again. Heaven would be better. Nothing to do, nothing to care about.

... Maybe because I don't care much that others don't care about me too. But there's nothing I can do now.

Hm?

Lady, be careful! There's a scary looking guy behind you!

"Dear, have you prayed yet?"

"Yes, dear."

Oh, so they're a couple. I'm happy for them. At least you didn't follow this old man's life.

Wait, no, my life is the best. Being alone doesn't mean lonely.

I looked again.

So it's the guy's turn to speak now. What will he say?

"Good luck."

Good luck? Is heaven some sort of nightmare for you? Others didn't teach you well enough, Hahaha...

Oh, it's getting brighter.

This is the end of my life, huh.

Take me, light...

Swoosh

"Kuh! Kuh!"

Inside an unknown dense forest, a young child with white hair woke up coughing.

"Heaven?" his thin voice entered his ears before his eyes could even open.

Soon, fatigue made his entirety heavy.

"Ugh!" he sat up in hardship. Silver eyes opened and verdant lushes entered his sight.

Woods and leaves could be seen from left to right.

He looked at himself and saw a frail-looking body.

"...."

That was when his senses came back to him.

"What?"

But he didn't have time to be concerned about what happened but rather, what will happen. His instincts riled up and saw from afar a yellow tiger had already seen him as prey.

"Ah... ah!"

His limbs sprawled in fear, wanting to escape the predator.

"Where am I!?" he stood up and ran as fast as he could!

Even with a weak body, he did not stumble from the overgrowth on the ground.

Roar-!

"Hmph! Just a lowly beast!" he growled as he turned around while picking up a stick, "I died already, what with this?! I want to die again but I can't let you kill me! I can only die by my own hands!"

His thin voice was filled with pride as he faced off the beast that was larger than him.

By a split of a miracle, he survived. On his side was the tiger with a thin stick stabbed into its eyes, piercing inside its head.

"HAHAHAHA!" even though he was bleeding and filled with wounds, he loudly laughed. His thin voice echoed fearlessly through the woods, "How can a mere tiger defeat me!?"

"Now," but soon, "what can I do to kill myself?..." fatigue ate him and his eyes closed.

By morning, he woke up. His wounds healed and his body refreshed.

"Eh? What happened?" he jumped up and down, not feeling heavy but instead, lighter.

"Is it because I was brought to another world where if I kill a monster, I will level up and get stronger? Hehehe... just joking."

He was half-right.

After breaking a stone and crafting a sharp shard out of it, he placed it near his neck. After looking around one last time, he jerked and tried to stab it right into his neck!

His eyes closed and in the next second...

"Huh? There's blood but the wound is not deep." he held.

"But this stone is sharp enough. If I say so, then it should be sharp enough." he stabbed a tree and found out he was not wrong.

"With my extreme talent, how could I craft a blunt knife?" he stabbed his neck again but there was just light graze.

He paused to think before he smiled.

"With my previous life's experience of being indulged in entertainment and fiction, then, aren't I correct that this is another world?" he stabbed his neck again only for it to be grazed, "This is the greatest proof that I already passed human limitation!"

The second wound was closing while the first was already gone. He looked and saw that the carcass of the tiger was gone.

"Looks like I can't commit suicide here. Let's see the other area." but after thinking about it, he casually decided something that would change the rest of his life.

"Maybe I should go and learn how I got in this world. Who brought me here? I will scold him, her, or it! This old man is not be trifled with!"

The unnamed traveled through the lands and met other people.

Life and death

Life and death

Life and death

Almost every day, the unnamed was stuck in the middle.

"How could a child kill me?! How?! And now, he's cooking his dinner while I'm dying!"

...

"D-did you just killed a Xenoc with one hit? How?"

...

"Who dares disturb the Unending Giver of Pain?!"

-

"Ouch, sorry! Sorry! I give up, you can disturb me anytime you want!"

...

"I love you! Why are you leaving me!? Is it because I lack something? Am I not beautiful enough? Am I not perfect for you? Or is it because I tried to kill you in your sleep and tried to kill you in your sleep for the past week?"

"I don't understand!"

...

"You, what is your name! For you to defeat the Twelve Guardians of the world and reach the heavens, you have a lot of guts! We are the gods that reside in this domain. If you do not surrender, I will personally bring you to hell!"

The unnamed laughed, "I am here to find the one who brought me here. Throughout my second life, I learned that only a God can do something as absurd as reincarnation. Is any of you responsible for this!?"

"You're a reincarnator?! We cannot keep you alive! You are an anomaly, no god can bring a soul to another world! You can't exist!"

"... Then I'm still far from my goal, huh..." the unnamed continued, "I have decided, my name is Ayensi Sole Tiowen. Don't ask how I got it, I don't know too."

Ayensi's long silver hair fluttered under the heaven's fury. He stepped forward without any fear, "Also, I proved it before I got in this world: Hell doesn't exist and from now on, neither will heaven too!"
