1 Chapter 1: Death
Takashi was far from a normal person, he was just a little bit peculiar and kind of a psychopath. Now don't imagine him as a weirdo or a cold blooded killer who enjoys the killing and suffering of others (though he is a little bit of a sadist).
{{NOTE from Author-san: it will be explained properly why he was described as a psychopath in another chapter, though a little is written in this chapter too}}
It's just that he is.... different
When he was young he was a very smart and an intelligent child, he was a bright child full of energy, he was also very mature as his parents left him alone multiple times for their work but that didn't mean they didn't love him, they doted on him very much and spent as much time possible with him, Takashi also appreciated this and was understanding and never threw a tantrum. Growing up this didn't change... up until middle school.
Being smart and attractive was good and all but this naturally drew the jealousy of the young, immature brats in his school, this led to his bullying. At first it was just some cursing and insults but is slowly led to some pushes and finally they started hitting him
That was his limit, he immediately started fighting back and even won fighting against 3 brats his age, though with some minor injuries, and held their leader(the one who was the most jealous)by his arm and slowly started bending it in a direction that a arm is not supposed to be in.
{{NOTE by Author-san: going to call him leader from now on, I'm too lazy to make him a name but who cares he is just a side character anyway}}
The leader's face was messed up covered in tears and snot and was shouting and begging him to stop but was met by Takashi's indifferent eyes and was ignored, Takashi kept on doing this under the gazes of the horrified students in the classroom until.....
SNAP!
The leader's bloodshot eyes from crying widened as he fainted with his mouth foaming with his arm bent in a direction that it wasn't supposed too. Takashi drooped him aside like a sack of potatoes and uncaringly without any change of expression(which terrified the crowd of students even more) grabbed his bag and started heading toward the door of the classroom.
The students around were terrified and had pale faces and quickly broke the crowd making a way for him, which was kind of similar to the sea that divided itself for Moses
Even though Takashi's face was expressionless his heart was beating loudly, no not out of fear but out of excitement. The fight for Takashi was exhilarating and he didn't understand why.
It wasn't because he broke the leaders arm( though it was indeed very satisfactory and even amusing) it was the fight itself that made his heart beat he didn't understand why but in the future Takashi would find out the reason for this.
After that incident no one bothered Takashi anymore, no it was better to say he was isolated. no one came up to him anymore, not even his secret admirers from the opposite sex not that he cared anyway as he didn't care about them in the first place they never bothered to stop the bullying he was going through so why should he care about these so called 'friends'.
The teachers never found out about the incident as the students were too scared of Takashi and never reported it. The leader himself never came to school after that day and was transferred to another school.
Days went by and the old Takashi that was full of energy and joy changed, he didn't want to worry his parents so he always pretended to be fine in front of them.
One day his father gave him a something called manga and told him it was something popular with kids and bought it for him, with that he was introduced to the world of manga, anime and light novels for the young Takashi it was mind-blowing and amazing but even with all those emotions the one above all was disappointment.
He was disappointed at the world he lived in, with this reality that he thought was 'boring' unlike the manga and the light novels he read or the anime he watched . Though there were novels without any supernatural elements that he liked it was still different from the ones with the supernatural in it.
Even thought he was disappointed that doesn't mean he turned into a depressed NEET or something, it was just simple disappointment...that is until his parents died.
One day Takashi was watching anime at home and waiting for his parents to come back, it was late at night and his parents went to a party organised by their friends.
Takashi was also invited but he refused not wanting to get bored there and watching the new season of the anime he liked that came out last week.
His parents didn't insist as they knew how bored he would get and went without him. They never came back.
Takashi, waiting for his parents to come back, finally fell asleep and the next morning found himself getting woken up by the doorbell. What greeted them there were 2 officers who gave him the news of his parents dying due to a car crash.
Takashi hearing that didn't show any outward reaction and just stood there, it was at that moment something changed within Takashi
He snapped
Even thought he was smart and mature for his age, he was after all still a child who just wanted to make his parents proud, a child who was isolated without any friends and only the people he interacted with were his parents.
Following that he was soon adopted by a new couple who took care of him, he never got too close to them in fear of getting attached and stayed like that. He never got friends and didn't get close to people. his new parents were concerned about this but no matter what they did it was the same, so they gave up. Many years went by and he finally graduated and got a job. He paid his adopted parents even though they refused and left without saying anything
Even though he didn't think of them as family he was still grateful to them
Walking down the street was our protagonist Takashi, he had just come from work and was heading back home. On his way he saw a boy running toward the road to get a ball that rolled over to the road.
Takeshi didn't pay attention to it and continued walking, but then he suddenly heard shouts around him and saw a truck heading towards the boy. Without hesitation Takashi moved quickly towards the boy and pushed him away. He suddenly felt pain throughout his body and realised that he was on the ground bleeding. He bitterly chuckled as he felt it his consciousness fading away
Takashi:' looks like I'm finally dying huh..... mum, dad'
He had a flashback of his life when it unexpectedly focused on one of his memories before his parents died, he was still watching anime and reading manga and light novels , He remembered himself paying particular attention to the ones with harems in it. Being a healthy teenager he did have a an interest towards beautiful anime girls so it was not something unexpected but he did not like harem only because of the girls
He was always fascinated with the idea of a harem and was jealous of the main character getting it, it was the one thing he envied the most , a family. even thought he had his parents he wanted a big family of his own and it was even better if it was full of beautiful women.
Takashi chuckled as he recounted the memories back then
Takashi:' a harem huh...alright if I have another life I will definitely make a harem...a big family for me'
He simply smiled and then closed his eyes as his body went cold
