Reincarnated As An Energy With A System Chapter 2
Advertisement
Ning Ruogong's parents had died at a very early age, and he had been sent to the orphanage. However, even his early age was already older than most of the other orphans in the orphanage. So, when the time came for adoption, the adopting couples would always choose the younger orphans and leave the older ones alone.
The longer the time went on, the older he got, so the chances of getting adopted were also fleeting. Soon, he completely stopped having hopes for adoption and just lived his life as normally as one could in an orphanage.
At the age of 18, he left the orphanage to live on his own. But that cost him a lot of money to live on his own, so he had decided to look for a job and by chance happened to find work in a zoo for looking after the animals in the nighttime. Since it was a night shift, the pay was better than the day shift.
So, he took the job without hesitation. Alas, after only working at the zoo for 3 months…
'I can't believe I died. It just doesn't feel real. And somehow I became a … whats the word— Sentient? Energy, that's just more unbelievable.' Ning was watching the timer go down, but there were still 2 minutes left.
'Hey, system! Is that status all there is to the system?' he asked.
'Oh, are these functions different from the locked shop?' he asked.
'Oh, what kind of requirements?' he asked.
Ning snickered to himself and waited for the timer to end. 5— 4— 3— 2— 1.
'Alright,' Ning was curious to see what would happen now. But he waited for more than a minute now, but nothing happened. The energy count was still at 1.

'Hey system, what is going on? Why am I not getting any Energy points?' he asked.
'What do you mean by I can only gather Heat?' he asked.
'Can you tell me what these types of energies are?' he asked.
'Oh, sound huh. I wonder how it works,' just as he thought that the system spoke once more, except this time it wasn't answering his questions but, notifying him of something.
'Wait, I got an Energy? Nice.' He said. He checked his status and it said that he had 2 energy now and required 8 more energy to unlock auditory functions.
He waited for more to arrive but it didn't. 'Hey system, why am I not getting any energy at all? Isn't energy everywhere in the world? How is it that I'm barely getting any?' he was really confused about that.
'Oh,' he thought. 'So, I guess I will just have to wait to accumulate more and more, huh'
He waited for a few minutes before he finally got another energy. Now he had 3.
'Hmm…' he realized something. It had only been about 10 minutes, but somehow he had already gotten over his death or the fact that he had somehow turned into energy. He had also completely accepted that he now had this miraculous system that, according to itself, made him immortal.
'Hey system, Why don't I feel any sadness for dying? In fact, I don't feel any emotion at all. I am only emulating the emotions in the head. I can't actually feel them.' He said.
'Oh,' he said emotionless. Soon, the energy counter reached 5 and it only escalated from there. As he gained more and more energy, the chances of him getting energy would increase as well.

Before he knew it, he was at 8 energy. He waited for a while and got another notification.
Burble. Burble.
He suddenly started hearing sounds. He couldn't tell which directions the sound was coming from, but he was definitely hearing them.
'Is that water?' he thought. The sound he was hearing sounded like something one would hear underwater. 'Hey system, where on earth are we exactly?' he asked.
'Huh? Wait for a second, I'm not on earth anymore? Why didn't you say that earlier?' he was shocked.
'Yeah, show me,' as soon as he said that, all the notifications he missed from his death started flowing into his head.
'So, I got teleported to another planet? Wait, is there even life on this planet?' he asked. If he had to live in this world without anything here, he would rather just die again.
'So many? Are there humans near to me right now?'
'Okay, I guess. Let's see what my next task is. Status.'

Only Villains Do That
While waiting on an Akihabara train platform one day, ordinary high schooler Yoshi Shinonome was suddenly plucked from his normal life in Japan and whisked away by a beautiful goddess to Ephemera, a world of magic and adventure, to serve as her Hero and drive back the evil Dark Lord. This is not his story. Standing nearby at the moment Yoshi was isekai'd was a man named Seiji - a rude, cranky, misanthropic musician who was not at all pleased to find himself also snatched up and transported to Ephemera by the goddess's wicked sister, Virya. According to this self-proclaimed Goddess of Evil, the whole fantasy adventure thing was a game she and her sister played to stave off the boredom of immortality, and since the good goddess, Sanora, had picked her Hero...well, Virya needed a Dark Lord. A grown man with his own career and ambitions, Seiji has no interest in playing. Unfortunately for him, the call to adventure was not a request. Now, he must conquer Ephemera and defeat the Hero...or Virya promises to make him beg for the release of death before granting it. Playing along for his own survival, Seiji nonetheless is under no illusions who his true enemy is, and it's not the naive young would-be Hero from his own world. Placed in an impossible position, Seiji must make enough progress toward world domination to keep his sadistic patron goddess off his back, but not so much that he can't strike an accord with the forces of Good and convince the Hero Yoshi that it's the goddesses who are their mutual enemy. Forced to embrace Evil without being too evil, Seiji walks the razor's edge, building his forces and biding his time till he can get revenge on the goddesses and be free of them, his only certainty that he will not be getting out of this with his hands clean. A Dark Lord's gotta do what a Dark Lord's gotta do. Updates Tuesday and Friday. Most Patreon tiers get to read one chapter in advance of the public release!
