《Death is Just a New Opportunity》Chapter 5
Advertisement
Why? Why didn’t I notice before? With so much shit happening in one day I must have forgotten that with being reborn I have to experience high school again. Fuck! Now high school wasn’t so bad. I was popular for my looks and was invited to all the parties. It’s the fucking teachers I couldn’t stand. The long nights of studying and sleep deprivation that comes with every major project I couldn’t fucking stand. It’s everything academic in school that I still can’t stand. I didn’t even use 3/4th of all this shit!
I breath deeply to calm myself down. I am in a classroom full of kids. I think I remember this. Todays my birthday and also the first day of school, August 16. Best believe I was pissed when I found out the dates aligned in my first life. On my desk is a packet that the teacher probably wants me to read. The problem is, I have no idea where the last kid left off. I look at the big green chalk board to spot the teacher's name. It’s Ms.Sugar, I remember her. She was always such a nice lady. I sigh and put on a apologetic smile on my face.
“I’m sorry Ms.Sugar, I seem to have lost my place. Would you mind pointing out where we are. I promise I’m not usually this air headed and will do better in the future.” I make sure that I put as much respect in my words at possible. She smiles back and says that it’s the second to last paragraph on the packet. I couldn’t help but blush at the smile. Ms.Sugar was probably around her mid 30’s but she sure looks amazing for her age. She was white and had brown curled hair with hazel eyes. She’s wearing a black dress that reaches her knees with a white top with frilled edges. She wore glasses and the first thing that came to mind was that she was the picture of innocence. I say thank you and start to read the passage. When I finish I smile up at her in thanks and she smiles back.

+5 Relationship with Ms.Sugar
...Hell yes! There’s a dating sim mode! I mean, I am The Gamer after all. Dating sims ARE indeed games so it does fall under my domain. Gods this is the best, maybe high school won’t be so bad. I mentally put Ms.Sugar on my “Conquer” list. With the next student reading the last chapter, I decide to head to my skills list and check what my two little gifts can do.
Soul Devour Lv: 1
Lets the user Devour the soul of one enemy a week. With the soul you can summon the soul into battle as your servant with 10% of their original stats. Creation Lv: 1 Lets the user create things using mana.
...Holy motherfucking balls! Both of these skills are over powered as fuck! If I level these things than I could become powerful really fucking fast.
As the random girl behind finally gets done with the paragraph she was reading the bell rings. Everyone jumps out of their seat and make for the door. As I get into the hallway I remember that I have 10 minutes to get to my next class. The class I was just in was English 9 and my next class is ROTC. I remember where it is so I walk straight there. I sit in the desk I sat in when I was in my old life, In the back of the class.
Thinking about it now, this a perfect opportunity to get some allies. Later when I trust them enough I can Party up with them. I’m glad I chose ROTC, I can get some loyal soldiers here. I’m thinking of doing a Hitman Reborn thing and get some loyal soldiers in high school. God I love that anime. I’m totally going to base a lot of my attacks and shit on that.

I wonder who I should pick to become my soldiers though. I sigh as I get up from my seat. No one is going to be here for a while. The teachers don’t suspect that a student will know there way around yet so they’re not even here. I walk to the front of the class to leave and go to the bathroom.
Upon entering, I see a black kid picking on a nerdy looking one with glasses. The kid is wearing baggy clothing and has a snarl on his face. He’s around 5’7’’, an inch or two shorter than me. If I remember correctly this guy name is PJ. I don’t know what the initials stand for because even the teachers called him PJ.He eventually becomes a lineman for the football team. He seems like a perfect first fighter candidate.
The nerdy kid I don't know. He wearing brown slacks with a buttoned up white shit. He has the old superman haircut and just looks like a perfect dinner for bullies. Even I want to pick on his. He seems like a perfect first made candidate. Plus, if I'm going to go to war, I'm going to need a smart strategist.
I already decided what build I’m going to play. I’m going to be a speedster. After all, can’t get beat if your enemy can’t catch you. I put the 5 points I earned from leveling up into my speed stat and look over my current character.

8 826Lone: The Wanderer [Rewrite]
Nine-to-five. The daily grind. Life. Painful years of school. Working as a slave for some undeserving corporate big-wig. The monotonous life of unemployment. We all experience this in one way or another, and we can all conclude one thing: it's dull. Such a fact rings true even for the fabled Lone Immortus, a powerful nine-tailed Golden Foxkin. However, what would you do if your monotony was suddenly ground to a halt and you were thrown out of your comfort zone along with a young girl forgotten by time? Perhaps you might have done things differently, been more organised, immediately died, gained control of the world in a matter of days, but this is Lone's tale, not yours. Watching two insecure people struggle to survive and find their place in an unfamiliar land just might be enjoyable to witness. Who knows? One thing's for certain: it won't be an easy path for them to tread, and what could possibly be more entertaining than watching people endure hardships and grow? I know of at least eight gods that would answer with, 'Absolutely nothing.' I wonder, after seeing this journey from start to finish, how would you answer?

8 341My Good Friend Murphy
***Disclaimer*** I wrote and am writing this purely for my own amusement. That means that this could have major revisions done to it sporadically, it has more grammar errors than even the most mentally stable grammar nazi could withstand, and will not update at all regularly. This is an ad-hoc fun experimental work with forced motives, plotholes, and static characters. Don't expect too much. That said, this mutated mistake of a short novella follows a ditzy MC who has been transported to a new world with the dubiously useful skills origin and enigma and the obnoxiously imbalanced skill, traveler. If you'd like more incentive to give it a shot, you will never get spoilers about the plot because there isn't one (Actual synopsis coming soon, relative to eternity)
