From the middle of a deep darkness… I slowly woke up.
I woke up…Or that was the expectation.
As I opened my eyes, no image connected at all, the world was completely blurred and distorted.
And not only that. My limbs don’t listen to what I say, I don’t have the strength to move them.
No, it’s not only my limbs. My head… My whole body wouldn’t move at all.
Now that I think about it, my situation before I lost consciousness was really terrible.
The orphanage’s priest started summoning the Devil, and obtained success by sacrificing a lot of children.
However, as we came to interrupt him, the priest failed to complete his goal and was killed by me.
That was good, but I couldn’t leave the Devil who became free after losing its summoner alone.
At that time, behind me was the cowered children and Cortina, who didn’t know close distance combat.
I didn’t go to fight.
I ordered Cortina to run away quickly, so that I could enter into a battle with the Devil alone.
As always, she also grasped the situation instantaneously and left saying she’d call for help.
She’s powerless, so it’d be hard to escape while carrying the children. Because about ten children had survived.
I could barely defeat the Devil, but I broke my left arm and right leg and got a large cut from my chest to my abdomen as a result.
In that state—Still breathing was a great luck.
According to the words of that self-proclaimed god I should have returned to this world again, but… My voice doesn’t come out and I can’t move my limbs either.
—What happened?!
“Fugyaaaaaa!”
I tried to voice words, but could only raise an odd scream that was like a kitten’s cry.
Before long I felt like my face was wiped with something warm, and then something soft was pressed against my mouth.
I instinctively sucked from it and swallowed something sweet.
And then, with my stomach full, I sink into sleep once again.
I could finally understand what happened a few days later.
I was—reborn as a baby.
This was the unfair means that god said. In other words, it was a taboo to resurrect, but starting a new life reborn as a baby was acceptable, right?
Moreover, I realized my vision is stabilizing…
“Good morning, Nicole. You woke up early today.”
Opening my eyes as I woke up, I noticed a beautiful woman bringing my mouth close to her chest—That was Maria.
Yes, my companion who was once called a saint.
And the person she called Nicole is…me.
That is to say, I was reborn as my former companion’s child.
Reincarnation magic is the highest rank sacred technique.
However, the person himself can only confirm if the magic worked, and it’s a magic that has the questionable effect that you don’t know where you will be reincarnated.
That means, Maria would never know I am her former companion, Raid.
That’s why, she pushes her vulnerable breast against me. If she knew that I am Raid, she’d give an unthinkable action.
If I was careless, I’d be sent flying with one slap. Her sense of virtue is very intense.
One time when I was trying to peep with Lyel she gave us divine punishment with a magic attack called “Vanishing”, I seriously though I’d die.
Besides, Coltina was waiting exactly on our escape route so we easily experienced arrest.
It’s a thing called youthful indiscretion.
“Fugyuuuu”
I raised a groan, refusing to eat.
I still don’t have enough muscle to move my neck.
And, no matter how much I suck my former companion’s breast, I can’t maintain a shameless face.
