Chapter 1: Reborn

I live as the son of a third-wife bastard.

During my childhood, I was tortured with unusual jobs.

My father was rigorous, but he didn't guide me properly.

While my stepbrothers and sisters enjoy their careers working in my father's company.

I worked as a nanny, taking care of my father who was seriously ill.

When the pain returned at night, my mother and I took my father in the middle of the night, exhausted and mentally depressed.

You think my father is good and heaven is not fair to give disease to him? No. This man is not good to his family, he treats us inhumanely, My mother and I desperately treat his illness, but he never appreciates us and scolds us for trivial things.

'Don't worry, treat my illness to death even though your education is bad. I left a lot of wealth for you and your mother."

This bastard! Damn it!

I'm annoyed with my inability to protect my mother from this damn man. Mother wanted to divorce soon, but she always put it off because she was afraid I would have a difficult life.

'Son, I know this hurts, but let's get through this together.' Ahh... Mother's smile is like an oasis in the middle of the desert for me.

So we are patient and restrain ourselves.

But after time passed, my father died of a stroke, but his inheritance never reached either of us.

I was shocked—where is the money for my mother!? at least just give my mother's share if you want mine.

In the end, the inheritance only went to the majority of the first wife and her children, while the second wife and her children licked them like disgusting dogs.

After that, I took care of my Mother, and my ability which is standard in society. a poor life with a terrible past that haunts us to death. My mother thanked me for taking good care of her, and she apologized for having to give birth to me with a bad father.

I said don't worry, mom, rest in peace.

Then my own life continued, I worked as a factory worker when I graduated from High school, and then after five years of work hard, the company gave me a promotion to become a manager because of my loyalty to the company.

I also did some other business, and I hit the jackpot with Crypto.

My life change, I have more money, nope, I have a lot.

I didn't decide to get married because I was afraid of giving injustice to my children and wife later.

I didn't want them to take care of me, who was sentenced to lung cancer because I inhaled too much tobacco as a result of my father, who was a heavy smoker.

It's very ironic that I never drank or smoked and was even a virgin till now.

But later was convicted of lung cancer.

I decided not to think too much about my illness and to move on.

I'm ready to die, and I have made a will to donate all my property to an orphanage. I don't want this mediocre treasure of mine to fall to a greedy person.

Then, when I was almost 25, I died lying in my room from lung cancer, which caused other complications in my body.

---

So... this is dead.

I am still conscious, but now I am in another place that is... not Earth.
hereafter?

That's possible...

Ah!

At least I want to enjoy what life is.

Even in my life, I have never masturbated or enjoyed the art called manga or anime...

Have a small coffee shop or restaurant?

By the way, my dream is to be a chef.

"Okay, if that's what you want, good soul... "I hope for a better and more beautiful life for you."

Huh? What sound is that?

Not having time to think about what it was just now, my consciousness faded.

Then slowly come back...

---

"Umm just that... what was that?"

I'm still confused about what happened...

Is this the afterlife?

I massaged my eyes, which were still heavy like I had slept for a very long time.

Slowly, my vision became clearer.

"Wow, this finger is so cute. it looks like a woman's hand?"

I studied my smooth and slender fingers as if looking at a wedding ring there, but of course not.

Then I touched my chest...

"But this feels like a boy..." I'm confused. What's going on?

Then comes the most important part: I need to know if my hammer is still there.

Screch*

My left hand quickly grabbed it, worried it would run away. "HAHA! it's still there. Crazy! I thought I was becoming a woman."

I'm panicking, like an idiot.

"Ummh~"

I did an upward arm stretch. Then get out of bed.

"Umm? "My voice is so soft... ugh, this is crazy, what's going on?"

I walked toward the mirror, which is quite wide.

Slowly, my reflection became clearer in the mirror, which was exposed to the reflection of the morning sun.

"HUHHHH!?"

I am shocked.

Slam!

"Who is this cute girl? Oh, it's me... but this is crazy! "

I slammed my hand against the mirror frame in shock.

"It's definitely not me! But wait, I died... so I was reborn? Tsk! Why is the way I talk so cute?"

I saw my reflection and only one word about my stature.

"I'M BEAUTIFUL! DAMN IT!"

My face is very pretty with big brown eyes and alluring eyelashes, my skin is very white and pale like a top-tier woman, but my chest is flat like a boy, my body is slender like an athletic girl, and my hair is black. That doesn't change. I have two side bangs and my hair is long but not to the buttocks, and then it's so smooth I'm starting to worry about strong winds.

"This is also surprising; I've been talking in Japanese since the beginning, so now I'm Japanese? Let's see my identity."

dash*

I quickly ran towards the table and looked for an ID card or whatever it was.

"Ummm, where is it? Yeah, here it is!"

I notice the card is very sophisticated; based on its thinness, it appears to be sophisticated electronics, but it is extremely advanced.

"So... my name is Yuki Haku. Tsk! whatever~"

Today my emotions went up and down because of shocking things that happened all at once.

"Hmm, there is a piece of paper that somehow I'm curious about."

I was distracted by a sheet of paper on my desk.

"Oh, kind spirit. I have made your spirit, which has not yet calmed down, be reborn into a new world. I have given you what you asked for according to your will during your life and after you died. It says "System" for further explanation."

[Recognized voice...]

"WHAT'S THIS?" A robotic voice suddenly appeared in my head, followed by a blue screen.

[System active...]

 [Does the master want to understand how the system works? or understand about yourself?]

"understand about myself? What does that mean? but this sounds more important."

"second option."

[Confirmed! sending knowledge into the user's brain...]

Thud*

"URGH!"

Due to the excruciating pain in my head, I fell to my knees. But the information about my new self suddenly allowed me to understand what happened after I was reborn.

"So my body is directly from God, not filling other people's bodies in this world. I'm relieved~"

"In short, the unique aspect of my identity on paper is that I was orphaned at the age of eight, but my parents died leaving enough wealth for myself."

"Yes, this is enough, not too little or too much, more importantly, this identity is just the manipulation of the gods, parents are fictional too..." To my relief, I don't have any family to worry about, or about them being asses.

"Hihhks! Just remembering it gives me goosebumps."

"Then this body is very special; I have a photographic memory, a good body constitution to practice various fighting techniques or use related jobs, immunity to various diseases, and unlimited magician talent?"

"what is that mean?"

It was really hard to process all the information with my mental ups and downs right now.

But I'm curious! I'm going crazy if I don't know what's happening right now!

Sigh

" Okay. First choice." Argh, my voice is really soft.

"AHHH!" I prepared myself for the pain in my head to come.

"EH?!"

My eyes are wide open at the floating blue screen displaying simple rules regarding the system.

"Sigh... I was expecting an information attack right now. Not that I'm a masochist either."

I took a deep breath because of a misunderstanding.

"Ohh? So my points are that much, and I don't know what kind of things are in the system shop."

Then I also already know about the six that are classified into skills and powers, but I'm also surprised by the storage feature, and what's with the pink kimono and choker?

"Is it because before that I didn't have the 'desire' to do so? But I'm sick, for god's sake! oh also related, I hate to marry too strong, haha." I now understood what God's wish meant.

"Sigh. Doesn't mean I'm getting married, and also, I'm not swing that way!"

I'll look at the system store instead.

"Eto... system! are there any skills related to cooking?"

"Woah! Change immediately!" I'm very excited about my dream to open a restaurant or cafe coming true.

[Sending data...]

Zap!

With light electric shock, the system transmits all information related to cooking.
I learned how to choose the best ingredients, use cooking equipment, and process raw materials into high-class food, What's more, I can feel the experience of many great chefs flowing within me, and if I want, I can open a restaurant as soon as possible since all things related to cooking I learned from the system.

"This is amazing. At just one point, I became a culinary expert."

"So, fantasy things like magic do exist in this world... but I don't understand anything about this world either."

[Does the user want knowledge regarding the current world?]

"How many points is that?"

[ Zero ]

"I want that! but wait a minute because I want to see the surroundings."

[Confirmed.]

Out of curiosity, I rushed to take a shower since it was my habit before leaving the house.

After that, I went to look in the wardrobe.

I can see that my wardrobe has a lot of... girl clothes!

What the hell!?

But I want to see if others mistake me for a girl, will I get a point system?

So I put on a tight black tank top that I tucked into my black tight trousers, then I put on a white cropped sweater that showed the shoulders. For accessories, I wore a dark choker and stud earrings, which were simple but matched my outfit.

"The hell... I'm hella cute."

I was stunned when I saw myself in the mirror.

Alright, just get used to it already god dammit.

I took my ID and smartwatch with me, then I went to the hall of the house and put on some nice white sneakers.

---

"The air is cool and a bit warm, oh, it's spring." I pay attention to the neighborhood of my house, the wide sidewalk in front of the house is covered with spring's characteristic cherry blossoms.

I stood in awe in front of my two-story house, which was made to do a small cafe business.

"Okay system, do it."

[Sending data...]

Zap*

My head was a little dizzy; this happened before when I bought cooking skills.

But I didn't expect that I was in a harsh world, and the use of magic for war was common during the Third World War.

"Haha, magic, huh? but I want to live a relaxed life, but this world is scary for me, who is a magician too." I still stood silently in front of the house and then smiled helplessly after receiving the information from the system.

Magic.

There was a product in this world that was neither a legend nor a fairy tale, but had instead become a realized technology since a time unknown to people.

The first verifiable record is from 1999 A.D.

The incident, in which police officers with special powers stopped an act of nuclear terror by a fanatical group to fulfill a prophecy of the annihilation of mankind, became the first verifiable case of witchcraft in modern times.

Originally, the unusual ability was called "supernatural power." The ability that comes into a person as a result of a purely inherent and sudden mutation, whose systematization as a technology that can be spread to the masses is considered impossible,
That is an erroneous assumption.

Through the research on "supernatural power" by influential Eastern and Western countries, the existence of those who were granted "magic" was gradually publicized. It became possible to reproduce "supernatural power" through magic.

Of course, it takes talent to do that. However, only those gifted with high aptitudes can achieve mastery that can place them at a professional level, just like those with abilities in the fine arts or sciences.

Supernatural power becomes systematized technology through magic, whereas magic becomes a technical skill. A "supernatural power user" becomes a "magic technician".

Skilled magic technicians, capable of suppressing even nuclear weapons, were powerful weapons for a nation.

At the end of the 21st century, in 2095, various nations of the world, which are far from united, are locked in a race.

"Sigh... "

I don't know what scenarios the future will bring, but I will fight for my beautiful and normal life away from the fierce battle."

But there is one problem.

If I am too weak, it might endanger my life and my dream.

If it's too strong, I will attract dangerous situations and the interest of people who are also dangerous because of my strength.

But I can also be said to be strong by magician standards.

Even though I haven't touched modern magic but am skilled in ninjutsu, I haven't even tried that either.

"ARGH!!"

I want to live quietly!
