Chapter 70 - Speedrunning a reincarnation

(Door-kun: Drop a comment here)

My name is... Kaito Mikazuchi, right?

Yes... that's right. I reincarnated and...

My name was Karma Uzumaki...too?

I was supposed to be with Rimuru right now so, why...

Why... am I inside this abyss?

.

.

.

My memories are still jumbled.

Rimuru?

Naruko?

Sasuke?

Sakura?

Kakashi-sensei?

Why are there two kinds of worlds...

This is annoying... why can't I remember!?

.

.

.

After a while, flashes of memories entered my brai- do I even have a brain at this point?

Maa~ that doesn't matter now, I guess.

I'm confused.

Did I die again?

But if I did, then I should've regenerated somewhere without any memories, considering I was a true dragon.

Ahhh...

That's right, I watch some "anime" before I decided to do all that "cyber hero" thing...

That anime where a girl reincarnated as a spider.

If I'm not wrong her classmates too, reincarnated.

But... I needed to watch the whole season just to understand the anime was actually turning the timeline back and forth.

What was the main character's name again?

...I forgot.

She doesn't have a name upon turning as a spider.

But the fandom bestowed her with the name "Kumoko".

Though, after reading through the novel, she got an actual name, "shiraori"

Her human form is goddamn beautiful.

Sigh* It's troublesome.

I can't even feel my nucleic core.

That means, no skills.

Where's the Voice of the world?

Shouldn't it be here at a time like this?

Seriously, just throw me into a body or something already...

≪Confirmed...≫

THERE YOU ARE!!! NOW HEAR MY WISHES!

≪...Creating a body with resemblance of the individual: Shiraori≫

... eh?

Eh!?

EEEH!??

≪Forming the nucleic heart of the soul and creating skills… Success≫

WAIT WAIT WAIT!

≪Calculating suitable skills with the core... success. Skills have been granted; Jagan (Evil eyes), Barrier, Universal Detect, Universal Thread, Magic Affinity, Costumer≫

I SAID WAIT, YOU MORON!

REPEAT WHAT YOU SAID! REPEAT IT! A BODY WITH A RESEMBLANCE OF WHO!?

≪Confirmed. Shapeshifting is not compatible with the body. Finding alternate interpretation...≫

Yes yes, whatever, just give me anything to change my-

≪Alternate interpretation was found. Unique skill, 『Illusionist』 has been granted≫

WAIT- WHAT!?

NO! F#CK YOU!

≪Confirmed. Unique skill, 『Lust』 has been granted≫

NOOOOOOOOOOOO-

.

.

.

Hiks... I cried.

Mentally cried.

I hate this.

I really hate this...

Why!?

.

.

.

.

Ah~ That's right...

Unique skill, Gamer. Give it to me.

≪Confirmed. Unique skill, 『Gamer』 is not compatible with the nucleic core. An alternate interpretation was found, Unique skill,『Gambler』has been granted. ≫

I・ F#CKING・ HATE・ YOU

≪...≫

Sigh*

This thing will seriously be the end of me...

≪Confirmed. Individual: Nameless soul will dwell in a new body.≫

THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT GODDAMMIT!!!

.

.

.

By the time I opened my eyes... As usual... I was greeted with trees.

It's a forest.

Everything is looking so tall, while in reality, my body shrunk.

I was wearing a white shirt and shorts.

At least it didn't throw me here naked...

And so, I take a look myself in a nearby lake.

Which made me regretted by doing so.

On the reflection, is a petite girl with the whitest hair to the point it's almost comical.

She has pinkish-red eyes, and flawless skin accompanying her beautiful features.

Sadly, that beautiful girl was me.

「That stupid...BIIIIITC-」

.

.

.

-Please stand by-

.

.

.

「Pant... pant... 」

That paragraph full of my cursing was changed to a heavy panting by the shitty author.

(Chair-kun/Door-kun: HEY! WHO ARE YOU CALLING "SHITTY"!?)

Personally, I too, wish to enjoy the sight of a Bishoujo (beautiful girl).

BUT NOT MYSELF!

Sigh...

!?

Someone... is stalking me...

Slowly, I turned my attention to the tree behind me.

As I do that, a figure came out.

「...Karma? 」

H-how?! And... who!?

「...Sen...sei?」

.

.

.

STUPID! STUPID! I'M AN IDIOT! SHUT YOUR MOUTH FOR A WHILE, ME!

AND WHAT THE F#CK IS WITH THIS TIMING!?

「Are you...Karma? 」

This came from the different yet familiar-looking Jounin with wide eyes.

Kakashi is wearing a black Jounin vest with the character "six" and "fire" written behind it, while he has a purple kunai in his hand.

「YES! I-I mean- N-no! I MEAN... WHO'S KARMA!?」

Yes, I am aware of how stupid I am.

「...」

The masked Hatake looks at me in silence.

After that, he turns around.

「Come with me, Karma. 」

I TOLD YOU I'M NOOOOT-

.

.

.

「Eat first, we'll talk later. 」

Currently, we're inside a restaurant.

Ichiraku Ramen.

This place has changed so much...

Ignoring the steaming Ramen in front of me,

「...How did you-」

「Looking at your matching Magicules with my eye, It's the only conclusion I could come up with.」

He... interrupted me.

Usually, I did the interruption, but now I felt our roles are switched.

「How lo-」

「14 years」

This fellow...

「Can you not-」

「Well, that is how I felt when the tables are turned. 」

...

Ah... He's angry?

I know 14 years is a long time.

But isn't this too much of a change in his personality?

「You're childish」

Thus, I stated.

To which he counters.

「Says the child HER-self」

Now that made a visible vein on my head.

「KUH-!」

「Maa~ maa~ maybe it won't be so bad you know? I don't want to listen to another cursing session of yours sooner or later」

「Just shut up!」

Ending that conversation, I grab the chopsticks and start to eat while crying internally.

At least the ramen is still delicious... hic.

.

.

.

Drinking the last bit of the broth, I was about to place the chopsticks down when I heard a voice.

「Kakashi-sensei!」

I froze.

That was Sakura.

「You're back from your mission?」

The pinknette said with a smile.

「Ah Sakura, having a lunch break? 」

「Hai...」

She noticed me!

「This girl is...? 」

I turned to Kakashi once more stiffly.

「Oh...this girl is...」

Such came from him.

Somehow, I have a bad feeling about this...

「My daughter.」

CLANK*

That was the sound of me dropping my chopsticks carelessly.

... EEHH!? /「EEHH!?」

But instead, to that remark, Sakura was the one that voiced out my thoughts.

.

.

.

「See you later, Kakashi-sensei, Riko-chan too~」(Sakura)

「Yeah...」

.

.

.

「WHY THE HECK DID YOU SAY THAT!? 」

「maa~ we can't help it now, can't we? It'll be troublesome for you to live without a guardian. 」

「I'M FINE ON MY OWN! Also, "RIKO"!?」

「No, you're not. Right now, you look like you're not even 10, It was different in the past okay, Riko-chan~?」

「DON'T "Okay" ME! And... WHY ARE WE HERE!?」

In front of us, is the women's clothing store.

「Maa~ I don't have female child clothes, so come over here.」

Saying that, he gets behind me, and pushed me into the store.

「Wa-wai- Oi!!!」

Inside the store,

「R-Rokudaime-sama!?」

This was voiced out by one of the employees which attracted quite the attention from the others in the store.

「She's my daughter, I'll buy anything she likes, measure her too if you would.」

And with that, she stepped back in a stand-by.

The woman turns her face at me.

The smile that crept on her face made me shudder in fear for a while.

「As you wish, Rokudaime-sama!!」

From then on, it was a living hell.

.

.

.

「「「So cuuu~te」」」

Is this how canon Rimuru felt?

If so, I'M SORRY I LAUGHED ON THAT PART OF THE SHOW, SO PLEASE, END THIS!

Gothic Loli, Maid, Princess Kimono, Heck! even a bunny girl costume...

I think I'm already broken at this point... rather, why did they think it's a great idea to make a little girl wear such vulgar clothes!?

The other employees of the store joining in didn't make any difference either...

Screw reincarnating! Let me die!

.

.

.

I end up buying some of them.

They even taught me how to use a bra...

「You like them?」

「If you don't shut up, I'll kill you. 」

Such was Kakashi's exchange with me.

We stopped at a very familiar house.

Right, I was here too before this...

「Even though the location changed, my house was rebuilt the same as before, so you would still be familiar with this place. That's why, have fun. Use my room like old times, and don't forget to leave my pillow on the couch. I'll deal with your adoption certificate, so for now, Byee~」

And with that carefree manner, he disappeared with a POOF*, leaving me in the dust.

... sigh*

Everything just escalated too quickly.

What in the actual f#ck just happened...?
