'No way'

Those were Ryan's last thoughts before he passed away with his phone in his hands looking at the check mark in his phone spelling out Approved.

And as he passed away his soul slowly drifted into space and into the light where he woke up crying as a baby in the arms of a Japanese woman and as Ryan struggled to control his new baby body he hears somebody speak in Japanese.

"Congratulations madem it's a healthy baby boy, do you have a name ready for your new son." the doctor asks Ryan's new mother.

The mother looking exhausted from the labor just smiles while holding her baby and says "yes me and my husband have decided to name him Minoru Kagenō" while looking at her husband with a loving gaze.

Now hearing that name Ryan who's name is now Minoru starts laughing like crazy inside his head as thanks to his previous jobs understands perfect Japanese.

'HEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEGEGHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEEHEH3HHEEHHEEHHEHRHEHEH3HEHEHWG3GEGG3GEGEGEGEG4G33G3G3EGWHEHEHERHEHEHE'

But what came out was cute little baby giggles, the Japanese couple hearing their baby start giggling when his name was mentioned just smile back at him unaware of this little gremlins thoughts.

"Awww you see that honey it seems he really like the name" the husband says while looking at his baby boy.

'WOOOAAAHHH BABY THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

LOOKS LIKE LADY LUCK IS ON HER KNEES FOR ME TONIGHT.

THAT SURVEY WAS REAL!!!

phew I just had to get that out of the way no matter how mature someone is or how trained I was, there was no way I wasn't going to celebrate being reincarnated especially as future Cid and knowing my future it's definitely worth the celebration.

It's even harder to go back towards my training in this new body it's hard to control my emotions properly

Oh well I guess I'll use what I got and that's this new life as Minoru. I'll uses it to study things i wasn't able to in my past life and make myself even smarter and more knowledgeable before dying once more and re-reincarnating into Cid'

And with these thoughts he soon fell asleep in his mother arms with a tiny smile on his face.

~Mc pov~

Before I knew it 4 years has passed and I discovered somethings about myself, my memories have become better, I somehow feel spiritually better, its hard to explain it. My cognitive ability have all been upgraded and it's either one of two things

One, it's probably thanks to my age, since kids from a early age pick up things quicker and are able to grasp things better I'm at the stage where things just seemed easy

Or two since I reincarnated my soul probably absorb the soul of who would have been the original Minoru and strengthen itself making it stronger.

If it's the second one I'm not going to be like those wimpy reincarnated guys from those novels that get depressed about taking the body of someone. First of all I'm an assassin and second of all his soul at the moment of my reincarnation was just a blank slate.

A good analogy for it would be like ripping a piece of paper, if the paper had content on it i would feel bad since it was the hard work of a person but since the paper was empty nobody is gonna cry over it. If that makes sense.

Since my cognitive are at the all time high I decided to take advantage of it incase it is indeed the former reason.

Now about the skill sets of Sung jin Woo, it would seem like I still don't have access to them which means I would have to die one more time in order to activate them

Probably for saying I wanted to reincarnated as Cid not Minoru...

Oh well, I guess in the mean time I will just have to use this time to develop other skills I didn't get to explore previously. I started to show my interest in music which my parents were elated about. Since in the original, Minoru's parent made him learn about music, they probably wanted a musically inclined child which worked in my favor.

Thanks to that they hired a tutor for me and when I showed my talent and quick learning to him, he really wanted to teach me. So thanks to the tutor I started learning many types of instruments

So thanks to that as well I went towards many music competitions and won them all, my music was just as good as the original composer if not better when I was 10 which quickly brought me fame. Which I was already used to thanks to my previous life.

Thanks to that fame many rich businessman that held great extravagant parties and dinners would send a formal invitation so I could play at their parties, even though it was an invitation I would still get paid millions of yens thanks to it.

Seeing that I was already good with music I decided to focus on other things since I had no need for it anymore. One of the main things I focus on was martials arts.

But I also focus on other things the would make me richer in another world like cooking and different types of culinary cuisines.

Which would be helpful if I wanted to open a big business empire in the future. The things i mostly focused on was about different types of alcohol, chocolate like how the original Cid did, sauces, spices, and the likes

I also dabble in fashion, as the leader of a future organization I need to appear presentable after all. After all the quote goes 'The clothes makes the man'.

I know what you may be thinking "But Minoru how are you able to learn so many things so fast in just that short amount of time surely there has to be a limit right, it just seems illogical"

The answer to that my not so existing friends is that six fucking years is alot of time, some of the things I talked about all I had to do was read and remember them which thanks to my 'spiritual awakening' was super easy, so no it's not illogical.

And so when I turned ten I 'abandoned the music industry' and focused mostly on martial arts for five more years.

During those 5 years I studied many different types of martial arts, Muay Thai, Taekwondo, Tai Chi, Kickboxing, Karate, Kung Fu, Aikido, Judo, Kendo, Krav Maga, Wing Chun, Jeet Kune Do, Hapkido, Capoeira, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and Ninjutsu and many types of different weapons.

And let me tell you it hurts, I may be mentally strong but I had to readjust my pain tolerance once again

Thinking about it, I'm going to have to re-do this once again when I died.... Fuck

Now then thanks to reaching the age of fifteen I realized that it was my soul that was strengthen, it wasn't thanks to my age that I was smart, which is a blessing in it's self.

Anyways thanks to all the martial arts I learned I started to create my own by taking the best part of each one of them and interconnecting them where they fit best at.

Especially swordsmanship, which was one of the things I really focused on. Since I knew i was going to a world of sword and magic I mostly practiced my swordsmanship making it extremely deadly, elegant, and sharp, can't forget about stylish as well

Which would leave people in awe due to my swordsmanship. I guess being in the movie industry in my previous life has left me with the desire to show off and put on performances...

And to learn all of these martial arts I would travel the world with all the money I earned from the music competitions and party invites, and meet different practitioners. I would then later fight them, during these fight I would then start copying them which would shock them and start to teach me willingly.

When I turned 15 my parents had to move to America for a job relocation, I didn't care much as I wasn't really that close with them. It's especially hard to do that when you're an adult mentally when you started.

And since i am going to "Die" I don't really see the point of getting along with them it's a waste of time and would just make them grieve even harder when it happens, which would just seem cruel, I'm an assassin not a monster.

I then went to Japan to last the rest of my years there. I decided to go for the school the original Minoru went to 'Sakurazaka Senior High'. The reason is simple it's for Akane Nishino, and no it's not for lustful reasons.

One of the many things the old man taught me was how to control my lust, one of the many reasons why so many assassin's failed their mission or were killed during it was because they couldn't control themselves and gave in into lust.

Though I wouldn't mind building a harem in a near future. This desire mostly comes from not really having any meaningful relationships except from the old man...

So no the reason wasn't lust it's cause she can be of use especially when this world goes to shit.

And so of I went and enrolled in school were people started to recognize me but left me alone due to my presence which I controlled to give out a 'Don't want to be bothered' kind of feeling which people found weird.

During my high-school time I mostly kept to myself once again not finding any reason to interact with anyone and spent the rest of my time studying things about business and what could be of any help.

And that went on until I finally turned 17 and my next seat neighbor then turned to be Akane Nishino.

That was when I realized that i have just entered the final months of my life.
