I Refused To Be Reincarnated
"In order to survive the future great war, we must take drastic measures. We need to summon warriors and train them before time runs out." Thus, millions of earthlings were reincarnated in an alien, medieval world governed by swords and magic to save its prophesied doom. Among those individuals, one's situation inexplicably deviated from the others. Thrust into a rotting house in a ghostly body, Adam found himself bound to a wailing baby. With a heavily damaged soul and the snarky remark of a system, he began his years-long quest to recover his body. Armed with his mind, he'll educate the baby and slowly watch him turn into a good youth. However, he would have to make a choice: suffer as a ghost until he finds an alternative that might not exist, or possess his body and reincarnate. However, he was far from imagining how dangerous this world full of possibilities could be, prompting him to question everything he knew... Including himself and this world's intentionally blurred history. ********************************************** [WebNovel Spirity Awards 2024 Entry] Discord server: https://discord.gg/3zrgeP8yFv Note: Hello, this is my first novel, and I'm doing my best to write it in English.

The Third Trial: A Voice in the Chaos
"Dodge!" a panicked voice echoed in Adam's ears, distracting him from his jubilation and causing him to collapse the atoms before him. Propelled by the explosion, he felt wind pressure cut his back before he rolled onto the ground.
SNAP
The sound barrier broke as the tentacles collided with his last location, raising dust and rubbles as a deep crater formed on the sturdy slabs.
Winds blew Adam's red mist wildly, menacing to reveal his form and causing his body to roll further away.
"Witness my perfection!" Ignatius gloated, pleased by the devastation his attack provoked. Then, as Adam jumped back on his feet, he struck again with three tentacles.
"Overhead and from the left!" echoed the voice in Adam's ears, urging him into action. Uncertain of its origin, he perceived it as another fragment of his own mind, aligning to confront the monster.
