A Real Reincarnation Story

On June 15, 2015 a certain young woman died from a strange sickness quite unheard of. She was greatly missed. Her funeral was lovely and she was able to die peacefully that night....

LIKE HELL!!

Sun Min-Jin awoke an hour ago in a strange predicament. She was not only stark naked, but was also in an unknown place where light was non-existent. Her last thought before dying was being glad that she didn't have to feel the pain of her sickness any longer.

But what is this? Not only was she feeling pain, but she was alive and well as though she had never been sick in the first place! Let's not forget to mention the splitting headache and body pains. Sun sat up after the memories caused by the splitting headache gave her an idea of her situation.

She was in the body of a woman who bore the same name as her. This woman has been through a tragic event that led her to her demise. Which explained why she was lying here in a dark room with no clothes on.

Sun knew then the reason for her body pains as well. Those perverted bastards. Why did it become like this? She died and reincarnated into a woman who's been soiled, killed, and tossed into a dark underground pit! And from what she could understand of her situation, she was in such a bad state that it's almost impossible to move or see a damned thing.

So what? She's stuck? What now? Did she really die just to die in an unknown place? The moment she thought those words she could suddenly see a bright floating light up ahead. Despite the pain in her body, Sun was able to stand on her feet with a bit of struggle.

One thing she was taught was not to follow something she was not certain of it's identity. But in this situation, where there were no other options, she felt that following this light may lead her out of this place. Which was exactly what she did. Sun stumbled through the dark until she reached that dancing light. 

But the closer she got the further it became. She found herself being led blindly to her possible death. That was how she felt. Even so, it was better than lying about awaiting for herself to die of starvation, or worse, thirst!

After an hour of walking, the soles of her feet were beginning to hurt. The light she had been following was not closing the distance either. Sun was beginning to wonder why she had started to follow it in the first place. That was until she found herself in a dimly-lit room. 

It turned out the light she had been following was a blue and glowing butterfly. It rested on a pair of large iron doubled doors with the engravings of old drawings. There was nothing but these doors in sight. Here she was standing butt-naked before a pair of doors that may lead to the outside.

Sun covered her breasts with one arm, like that would do her any good. It's not like they were small. At least she could say this was something she could be happy about. In her last life, she was as flat as a board up there.

She approached the door and placed her other hand on it's surface. Honestly, she didn't think that her frail arms would be able to push them open. But there was no need to have such a concern. Just the mere touch of her hand and the door opened all on it's own.

"Yeah. That's not creepy." She found herself muttering sarcastically.

Walking inside, Sun was glad to see the walls being lit by torches. But it seems this was not an exit. Perhaps it was a good thing. She glanced about the room that looked completely empty. Why did that butterfly lead her here? Or did it? Was it her imagination?

"SO, YOU CAME."

She whipped her head to her right after hearing the voice. Standing there on a platform was a person. Was they there before? No. She's certain this room was empty when she walked in.

The hooded figure wore a robe to hide the face. But she could tell by the voice that it belonged to a woman.

"DON'T BE ALARMED, I WONT HARM YOU, HERO."

It took her a moment to realize the words were forming inside her mind. Hero. That was what the owner of the body used to be before she died. Sun has read a lot of webtoons in her past life and one thing she knew was the significant title of one who is called a Hero.

In those stories, A Hero was someone who enjoyed the life of luxury due to their roles as saviors. They are blessed by a so called Goddess with amazing abilities and sent to fight an evil threat. At least that's what she read.

But after viewing the memories of this body, her good feelings of being a Hero in this world were completely destroyed in an instant. Women in this world were not accepted as a Hero. It was a rare cause when the Goddess chooses to bless a girl and when it does happen, the woman Hero is treated poorly.

She not only does not have a life of luxury, but she was raped, killed, and tossed to this dark underground.

"I SEE. I APOLOGIZE FOR MY IGNORANCE OF THIS WORLD. FOR THE HERO TO GO THROUGH SUCH A FEAT, I NEVER IMAGINED IT COULD HAPPEN."

The person's voice was laced with pain. That was when she removed her hood and revealed a pale heart-shaped face. A beauty with sparkling green eyes, long blonde hair, and a soft white light glowed dimly around her entire body.

"Who are you?' Sun asked.

"OH RIGHT. I AM THE MOON GODDESS. I SUMMONED YOU HERE IN PLACE OF THE ORIGINAL HERO, SUN MIN-JI FROM ANOTHER WORLD."

"You know I'm not the original owner of this body? The Moon Goddess? What's happening right now?" The questions piled one after another.

Was she in a webtoon or manhwa right now?

"I'LL SOON ANSWER ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS. FIRST, I'LL INTRODUCE MYSELF. MY NAME IS ROSCHA, THE GODDESS OF THIS WORLD. YOU ARE CURRENTLY DEEP IN THE ABYSS. A PLACE THAT WAS MEANT TO BE CRAWLING WITH ALL KINDS OF MONSTERS. UNFORTUNATELY, THE LATE HERO BEFORE YOU HAVE ALREADY DESTROYED EVERYTHING HERE."

Sun holds up her free hand, "wait. The Abyss? You mean like the kind of place where evil lurks and a demon lord is sort of the boss type of Abyss?" she asked.

So, she was in such a place? "But where exactly is this Abyss located? Am I no longer on Earth?" It was a stupid and obvious question.

"THIS WORLD IS KNOWN AS THE GABEYA RIFT . THE ABYSS IS CURRENTLY IN THE NORTH, RIGHT AT THE EDGE OF THE BLACK DEATH FOREST. AS FOR HOW I KNOW OF YOUR EXISTENCE, IT WAS I WHO BROUGHT YOU HERE. THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THAT BODY GAVE UP HER LIFE YEARS AGO. I FELT SO ANGRY FOR HER DEMISE THAT I DECIDED TO SUMMON SOMEONE WHOSE SOUL CARRIED INNER STRENGTH. THAT'S WHERE YOU CAME IN."

Sun stared at her. "Are you out of your mind? Send me back!"

"I CANNOT. YOUR ORIGINAL BODY HAS DIED, SO YOU ARE STUCK HERE."

Yeah, she should have saw that one coming. In most cases, this happened a ton in any webtoon or manhwa she has read. Still, it wasn't something she wanted to hear. And honestly, did she really want to go back to that sickly body of hers? No. She didn't.

"Fine. That's understandable. But why would you bring me here? Why not just let the Hero die in peace?" Sun asked.

"IN PEACE? THERE WAS NOTHING PEACEFUL ABOUT HER DEATH!! SHE DIED WITHOUT HONOR! ALL BECAUSE SHE WAS A WOMAN! I BROUGHT YOU HERE TO AVENGE HER DEATH, ONLY YOU, A SOUL LIKE YOURS CAN DO IT."

Avenge the death of someone she didn't know? if she thought about it, if it had been her in the modern world, she would have never agreed to it. At that time, no one helped her, she couldn't even help herself. But now she was given another chance at life. Sure, she was no longer a virgin and even have the title as a Hero.

But, this body was hers now. Could she really sit here and turn a blind eye to it? No. It was impossible to ignore it. Sun, who was also a woman, could not sit here and be okay with how women were being treated in this world. It was like going back to the days where women were nothing but tools to satisfy a man's libido.

"Okay. Say I do help, how do I go about it?" After all, she was nothing but a powerless Hero now.

Roscha clapped her hands together in excitement, "Great! I'm so glad you agreed!"

"Wait. You could have spoken to me like this from the get go." Sun replied.

"Don't sweat the small stuff. First, I must tell you that all I can do for you is give you the gift of becoming powerful. It is out of my jurisdiction to grant you with that power automatically. With this chance I give you, it is up to you on how to use it. I think it'll be quite useful in this place filled with dense mana."

Roscha reached out to Sun a soft and gentle smile on her face, " Come here, My Child. From here I shall grant you all my power."

It was embarrassing as Sun stepped into the arms of the Goddess. The arms wrapped about her turning into a soft light that enveloped her entire body. She felt herself curling into a ball and floating into the air. All the mana in that one room began to gather toward her.

It became as dark as the room itself. Sun's once dirty brown hair became as dark as night. Her eyes were even more pitch black than the room. Her once naked, scarred body began to heal of all injuries inflicted upon her. Even the moon Goddess began to change shape.

Sun was slowly lowered back to the ground.

 "CONGRATS! YOU UNLOCKED THE GODDESS ABYSSAL SYSTEM. I'LL EXPLAIN HOW IT WORKS."

She's speaking in her mind again.

Sun learned that she acquired a system like the manhwas she read. Roscha will play as guide of said system, so she'll always be by her side. The idea of this system is getting stronger. Things like leveling up, viewing and distributing stats, and also obtaining skills were possible.

That's the cool part.

Looking at the game screen in front of her it was a basic profile with her name, race, level, stats, and skills.
