《Reborn with 1600 IQ》2. The beginning, and the stats table
Advertisement
In a world of magic, elves, and dwarves. In a world full of mysteries, and wonders, a small boy was born to a poor family. At first he seemed like a normal, healthy boy, and he brought his parents great happiness, as he was their only child. Even if they weren’t wealthy, they spent a lot of time looking after him, and making sure that he had everything he wanted.
But everything changed in a short time...
“Don’t we have any more books? We should have some books. Are you sure that you can’t get me any books?” a one year child said, while looking at his parents.
Yeah, this child wasn’t normal. It isn’t normal for a child to start speaking fluently in the eighth month of their life, and it isn’t normal to read without any problems at the age of one. It was so abnormal, that his parents didn’t know what to do, because they were too poor to afford books, and the only one they had, was given to them by a distant relative many years ago… They didn’t want to disappoint their only son.
Even if he was just a one year old baby, now sitting on the wooden floor of their house.
As the time passed, the boy learned, and learned some more. At the age of ten, he would speak six languages fluently, and use even hard math without any problems. Of course, his parents didn’t teach him that, but the scholar, that lived in the city.
From time to time he would come by to his house, just to talk with him. He was old, but for some reason he didn’t mind going out of his way, just to meet this boy, and bring him things to read.
The time passed like this, and the boy continued his studies under the scholar. He didn’t have many friends, because he would rather spend his time with books, but it’s not like he had problems with it.

Yeah, he was an introverted, but a really smart boy. His looks weren’t that bad either, but his strength was lacking a lot. Maybe because he didn’t move a lot, or maybe because all his talent went into his brain, but his body wasn’t made for physical work.
Years went by, and his fifteenth birthday was coming. It’s an important day for people in this world, because at this age they receive a “table”. Who knows why, but everyone has it, and it shows the talents of the person who has it.
“Your fifteenth birthday is coming, do you want anything? You know that me, and your father aren’t really rich, but you deserve…” they boy didn’t let his mother finish her words, as he looked at her with kind eyes.
“There is nothing I want. I could live like this for the rest of my life. I like it even if we are poor, so don’t worry about the things like this.” he said, and his mother smiled at him widely.
“We really have such a smart son.”
The words of his mother were true. They had a truly smart son. Who knows, he could be the most intelligent person in this world. It was weird, that normal people like this, had such a splendid son, but accidents happen all the time.
“Tomorrow is my fifteenth birthday…” the boy said, when he got to his room. He was lying on his bed, and looking at ceiling.
“If I can have a wish, then I want those peaceful days to never end…” he said, and smiled. After that he went to sleep.
This night he had a weird dream. In it, he saw a familiar person, standing near the road. Cars were riding on it, and the person that he saw, was now waiting for the light to change.

“Hey… Wait… I know this person…” the boy said in his dream, as he looked at the man being hit by the truck, while helping a little girl.
“N-No… It can’t be… It can’t be!” he shouted, and woke up from his dream.
“I like it even if we are poor?! I can live like this?! Were they making fun of me!? I... “ he said with anger, as the memories of his past life returned to him.
One memory was a really painful one. A memory of a girl that took his easy life away from him, leaving him to live as a peasant. And she did it with only a roll of a die…

The Plight of Aélia: Firebrand
The Kingdom of Aélia stands on the cusp of many scientific breakthroughs, thanks, in part, to the discovery of a powerful new element, currently known as Aélium. This element has brought with it many technologies never before thought possible by many on the planet of Aél and ushered in an era of intellect and scientific revolution to much of the world. Meanwhile, Emperor Lennix Sangrey of the Sangréalan Empire, jealous of Aélia's scientific achievements and hell-bent on revenge for the death of his father, the previous emperor, Runivan Sangrey, plots for the destruction of Aélia from somewhere in the shadows. Blissfully unaware of the impending doom, the son of the hero of Aélia and vanquisher of the previous emperor, Glaed Balaston prepares to follow in his father's footsteps as one of the protectors of Aélia; The Firebrand Knights.

The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.
