Prologue.
Is there anyone here who doesnt like money?
First of all, I like it.
Whether on Earth or in my hotown, money has always been a magical thing.
People die without money. So I worked hard to earn money.
That was all I did.
Please say sothing!
Im YTV reporter Lee Jiyoung. Is it true that you cleared the A-Class gate by yourself in the past?
Reporters, its dangerous, so please dont push inside!
However, after earning money like crazy, fa caught up with at so point.
Property is proof of success.
Thats why modern people always want to hear the secret of success.
Rumor has it that you took down an S-rank hunter during the last Dungeon Break incident. As expected, did you perhaps control or conceal your awakening hidden potential to achieve that feat?
Why did you cheat on your rank in the Awakening Test?
Please answer!
I glanced over at the reporters who had gathered.
Whats mixed in their eyes is anticipation, jealousy, and curiosity. Its all good.
But
I have a little secret.
With the appearance of a new high-ranking Awakener, the expectations for national security are rising. Do you have any plans for the future?
Actually, it was a re coincidence that I made money from this damn hunter job.
Its not because I have the ability, as the people gathered here think A combination of luck and a few bluffs brought to this position.
Yeah.
In a word, Im X-Bab. (T/n: Its x but actually the aning is soone who lacks intelligence, ability or skills.)
So I dont know what most of the reporters are asking now.
Plans? Do I have plans?
I wanted to clear up the misunderstanding if I had a chance.
But now I know.
Too many things have already happened that cant be changed.
Would things have turned out this way if I had a plan?
Yes?
Ah, not this. Yeah, so what am I going to do in the future?
Now, what would happen if it were revealed that I was at the sa level as F-Class?
First of all, the S-Class, which was falsely accused of getting beaten by , will blow my head off, right?
The one who entered the gate once and beca an enemy, what kind of No. 1 guy would really leave alone?
Hmm.
However, even if its the people who misunderstand, its the sa thing that hunters do.
No comnt.
I thought of various futures and eventually said sothing.
As soon as the answer falls, the sound of the shutters pours in again.
Reporters asked several questions after that, but couldnt get aningful answers.
Whatever the article says tomorrow, its ruined.
Im not going to comnt, you mammals.
It turns out that Im a strong man whos been hiding his power!
Then it turns out to be a waste of rank ability!
I wont live long on this rotten planet.
By the ti the reporters caras strobe keeps flashing.
I closed my eyelids tightly and was lost in mories of the past.
Where did the new life that started hopefully go wrong? Because I wanted to point out the cause for a mont.
****
I was a resident of a binary system until recently.
This planet called Alphauri was my hotown, and I played a very big role in it.
But is that position important now? The most important point is that I ca up with this thought at so point.
[I should quit this shitty job.]
Do you know how Im treated while I live here?
This work is treated as a kind of community service, so even if I work myself to death, I wont get paid. However, I go to work 640 days a year without a holiday, and because I dont need sleep due to technological developnts, I work overti like Im breathing.
[Damn it.]
Of course, curses co out.
Anyway,
I decided to quit my job.
However, several problems ca up ahead of my resignation.
First of all, this is not a job you can quit at will. High-ranking people put restrictions on them so that they couldnt run away from their work.
The mont you try teleportation magic, you get an electric shock in your brain.
Even if they succeeded in leaving the workplace. Theyre in a situation where there is no place to hide because all parts of the planet are already in the hands of the rulers.
I wonder how it would be if I killed my boss.
Because I can never, ever harm people from the sa planet.
[Even suicide is difficult because that range includes yourself.]
I considered resigning again and again.
And in this process, I carefully observed that my hotowns magic technology couldnt deal with souls yet.
[Yeah. Lets see. No matter how much magic technology has developed, no one has ever interpreted the soul. It goes without saying that you couldnt cast magic on a concept with a composition you didnt even know.]
According to this logic, my restrictions, strictly speaking, belong to the coordinates of the body
Then I was able to co to one conclusion after thinking that far.
[Then, can my soul escape freely?]
Its been exactly 10 years since that idea.
Only after 10 years have passed.
A realm that no one has reached in the end even in the sharply developed magic civilization.
Soul Manipulation
I finally completed this one-of-kind magic.
With the determination to quit my job, I made a plan to settle my soul on a distant planet so that they couldnt chase after .
In other words, it is the first reincarnation in history.
[All right, its done! As expected, I am a genius!]
As soon as the magic was completed, I started it without hesitation.
And it was around this ti that the magic, which had been drawn off little by little for ten years, ford a new arrangent in the cave.
[!!]
Entering this stage, it seems the manager also noticed that sothing was wrong, but it was too late.
I am finally leaving this damn place!
I shouted with joy, spreading my tentacles wide.
[You idiots! Roll this ruined planet without ! Wahaha!]
Before long, a dazzling light surrounded my body, signaling that the magic was working.
Its a victory. It was a perfect victory.
Even though the match ended with running away, Im resigned anyway!
***
How long had it been since the mories of bright light, which had wrapped around his body, had crossed?
When I ca to my senses, I lifted a pair of reflectively thin skins. It was an eyelid.
Uhm
The first thing I see when I open my eyes is a yellowish ceiling.
Then, the next thing I saw was the wallpaper with promiscuous flower patterns.
I looked around, but I didnt see any other creatures besides .
Only walls, walls, walls.
In a very small room.
What is this gross thing?
When I tried to control my body, sothing ca out from the side.
It was an elongated mass of bright yellow protein, with five thin projections sprouting from the tip of a large cylinder.
It was a finger.
Anyway, I think it worked?
I went through a period of adaptation while fumbling with my body.
Of course, there was no such thing as anxiety.
Even though I may worry about how I will live on an alien planet alone.
Im not an ordinary person. I was the strongest wizard representing my hotown planet.
But what if such a genius wizard was unprepared?
Heh, reincarnation is no big deal if I get caught.
First of all, I set so conditions before I cast the spell.
The first rule was magic power.
Reincarnated as the creature on the planet with the most powerful magical abilities.
If I pass this condition, I will naturally be the species with the highest intelligence.
It didnt matter if I possessed a single cell as long as I could quit my job! This is really good.
I got up from my seat.
It was ti for the next setting rule to shine.
Aaa~ aa~ Oh, He, hello? Hello.
I started to speak Korean perfectly. It was thanks to the extraction of the mories from the corpses brain.
Because even after death, when the soul has left the body, the information stored in the brain and heart doesnt easily disappear.
Especially if the corpse is even more fresh.
Its natural to move the body, so of course, its also natural to change languages.
But
But why is this all?
A problem was found during the test.
If everything goes as planned, I should inherit the mories so perfectly that even if the corpses parents co, they wont be able to tell us apart.
But, why?
I have no idea at all what kind of person this bodys owner was when he was alive.
Sohow, my mories were all scattered.
Tsk, which parts are missing?
No matter how much magic is a study that builds up through failure, this case is a bit fatal.
I stood still for now and thought about what to do.
Ugh!
Not knowing that the ti given for this side is running out.
Cough? Cough!
Its only a few seconds later.
By the ti the organs of the corpse that were forcibly brought back to life begin to function again.
I bent down because of the sudden pain I felt in the pit of my stomach. It was as if an organ had been ripped open and soaked in hydrochloric acid.
Damn it!
It wasnt difficult to find the cause of the problem.
Perhaps, thanks to the shock of intense pain, it just showed a piece of mory from the past in my brain.
So it was a corpse from starvation!
The body I reincarnated was a starved corpse.
Of all things I wanted to avoid the next most decomposing corpse.
He suffered for a long ti and died of hunger, so the accumulated shock is great.
In my mind, I want to quickly solve all the problems with magic.
However, it was difficult to cast magic now.
Since its right after reincarnation, the soul needs ti to adjust to the magic of this planet.
3,600 seconds.
I rembered the ti unit of the earth. Then I leaned back down.
Ugh!
I couldnt even afford to think for a mont. The pain created by the body that fell into starvation was beyond imagination.
No, this is a little!
I cant concentrate on anything in this situation.
Now, the most important thing was to turn off the warning sound in the stomach.
It hurts so much! Im going to go through it again at this rate!
I made a decision and imdiately opened the door here.
Kugh,ugh.
After that, I gritted my teeth and looked for a way to get out of the building.
I will look for wild food as soon as I go outside.
Since I revived the organs with reincarnation magic, my digestive power must have co back a bit. All I have to do is put anything into my stomach.
Anyway, why is this body so hard to move?
Ive definitely absorbed the way of walking, but my legs feel extrely heavy.
But fortunately, it was not long before I went outside,
I couldnt hide how surprised I was when I saw the first scenery of this planet.
Light?
Since most of the surface was water, the starlight didnt reach well, making the scenery of my hotown dark and blue.
And the warm, dry environnt here is the exact opposite of that.
The dazzling appearance I saw for the first ti briefly overwheld . But there is no ti for sentintality. But there is no ti for sentintality.
Ah, not at a ti like this.
The extre hunger poked my stomach, and now I have no choice but to find wild animals and anything I could put in my mouth.
Argh!
But after a few minutes, I was faced with a hopeless situation.
Theres nothing to eat.
Nowhere!
What the hell!
Shockingly, this place was paved in gray everywhere.
No animals can be seen on the flat road, and it is difficult to find even traces of insects or plants.
It was just a line of colorful scrap tal on four wheels.
What kind of planet is here! This is why the owner starved to death!
Reduced green space due to rapid urbanization
Such a sentence suddenly ca to mind, but there was no ti to interpret it.
Ugh.
I lost my strength and crawled on the ground.
As I lowered my posture, I finally found an insect near the tire, but
Its too small, but will this really help?
I think it will take more energy to digest.
It was a mont when I was contemplating whether or not to eat the insects I found. In the distance, sothing appeared in a crooked alley.
Milky apricot skin, bipedal walking, and a blue hat.
Its the sa race.
I recognized at once that he was a resident of the earth.
The person who appeared was short enough to barely reach the side mirror of a parked car.
It looks like a child.
Children.
Words that refer to the other person naturally co to mind.
But thats also for a while.
I paused and looked at the object the child was holding.
He held a soft plastic bag in his hand, and then he squeezed the orange solid inside the bag to dissolve it and eat it.
Ugh.
What is that?
Thats what hell eat.
Besides, when I thought it was quite delicious I couldnt take my eyes off it.
.?
Did he notice my gaze?
The child, who was passing by, kept looking sideways a few tis, and then all of a sudden he sped up.
Did he consider a strange person? He passed the street corner quickly.
Should I go and steal it now?
That was around the ti I thought about not having an animal.
I found a new way while I was secretly following behind the child.
Thankfully, there were tall trees and small flowers along this winding road.
Plant!
But, sohow those plants dont seem to be edible.
I feel like Im doing sothing very wrong right now
Unfortunately, there is no choice as long as the mory is incomplete.
I thought this was better than stealing other peoples food, and eventually took a step forward to collect unknown plants.
At that mont,
Boom!
There was a strange roar.
It was the sound from the alley where the child went back.
Hmm?
I turned my head. Then, I directly checked the place where the roar was heard.
Paying attention to danger signals is a common feature of animals.
Kyaaak!
As I entered the alley in question, the strange sound rang once again.
Kyaaaak!
This cry is not the scream of a child who went into an alley.
Then who would have scread?
If I look closely, its not a person.
Its a huge red wing.
With black, shiny eyes.
And sothing with a long pointed yellow beak.
Its a bird?
Kyaaak!
So to sum it up.
Today, I was reincarnated on a planet called Earth where I could encounter a monster bird the size of a house on the street.
Damn it.
