《medieval reincarnation(being remade)》Why Did This Happen To Me?
Advertisement
I made this random story like 3 months ago and got to around 35k words (not finished yet) i decided to post the first chapter here, if anybody actually reads it i would like if you could give me feedback( even if the story is bad please tell me) this was just a pass time thing anyways here you go
STORY START-
Walking home from school late at night due to being held back for detention I look to my left and there is a man standing there with a knife
My gut feeling instantly tells me that this guy is bad news
“H-ello? Are you ok?”
I asked him this but there was no response
I’m an average kid with an average life, I don’t bully or get bullied you could say that I fit in with the crowd. Someone like me is the type of person to grow up and get a 9-5 job, get married have 1 or 2 kids and die of old age before my loving wife before my family with a smile of satisfaction on my face
Yet here I am looking down at my stomach that has a knife stuck deep in it
The pain has not hit me yet but that’s probably since I’m still in a state of shock
I look up to the man that stabbed me, but he is nowhere to be seen
“Is this a dream?”
I asked myself this as I start to feel the pain that is rapidly spreading throughout my body
My legs begin to shake as I fall belly first onto the ground
The knife stabs further into me and I could feel it come out the other side
I must of woke up the neighborhood with that scream
I’m losing consciousness as I see people looking out their windows in the direction of me with phones in their hands
Ha, they are probably trying to phone the police, but it’s too late
I can’t move and my vision has gone blurry
I didn’t do anything wrong so why am I lying here on the floor about to die
Someone like me was supposed to have a normal life, I was meant live happily ever after
This is something that happens to pre-destined main characters in manga and anime so why is it happening to me
I have a good mother who raised me to be a proper man, I have a father who has a good salary job and supports us, and I have a sister who calls me onii-chan with a smile on her face
Ah I’m starting to see my girlfriends face out of all the people, why her? We only started going out 4 days ago after I confessed to her in front of the whole class
I guess it’s because I’m going to die a virgin, what an unfunny way to die….
Chapter 1-
Mhm? What’s this warm feeling?
I thought I died, am I in the afterlife or something? That exists?
I opened my eyes to discover the face of a middle-aged man with a goofy expression like he’s trying to cheer up a baby
Who the hell is this guy?
I tried to move my arms, but I couldn’t
What the hell? Am I having a dream, or something why can’t I move?
I tilted my head to the left and saw a nice-looking woman who looked like she was in her 20’s smiling at me
Who is she? Oh, wait she’s lifting me up, how is she lifting me up?
I looked down to see that I had been wrapped in this cloth and that I was small.

It’s been about a month, and I came to the realization that I have been reincarnated
I don’t know where I am or who I am, but I can tell that my family is wealthy, well at least wealthy enough to employ a maid
I have started to understand the language of this place, but it doesn’t sound like a language from my world, maybe this is a different world? That would make me some sort of main protagonist
The fact that I have a new family is unreal to me, I have come to know the name of my mother, father, and the maid though
My mother’s name is Elizabeth Wrathead, she fell in love with my father when she was asked to form an adventuring party with him
By adventuring party, yes, I mean there is adventuring guilds in this world, so my conclusion was right, this is another world separate from the one I came to
How I got here, I do not know, my purpose I don’t know either. Anyways back to the names
My father’s name is Scot Wrathead he is the eldest son of a regional lord of the Kingdom but decided to leave the heir to his younger brother and start adventuring, where he met Elizabeth
The new maid’s name is Lize Elizabeth, and Scot treats her as family, and she is nice to me, so I have no complains
The only issue that I have so far is that practically every night I can hear Scot and Elizabeth making more babies
From the month that I have been in this world I have gained a lot of information already
Although this could be the advantage of keeping my memories from the other world I can’t really complain.
Skipping a couple moths, I have begun to crawl like a pro
From the looks of it this house is certainly bigger than the house of my previous world
The food here is not up to the standards of the old world but it is still good
I certainly enjoy getting breastfed from a hot chick like Elizabeth
No, I can’t say that Elizabeth is my mother although she is a cut above the rest here if you compare her to the other world, she is just above average
During these past few months, I have heard Elizabeth and Scot talking about bringing me to see Scot’s father
But they decided to do that when I’m able to walk
Recently I have seen Scot outside swinging a sword for hours on end, in this world swords are the go-to weapon for adventurers
There are also maces, long spears, and other melee weapons that people choose to hone their skills on
To my surprise when reading through books about the history of this country I learned that it was the year x360 of the Dragon Calendar, also the name of the country is (Selrone Kingdom) since this is a different world, I thought there would be the existence of magic. apparently, it became extinct after the ancient war of the 5 continents purged almost all magic users leaving the surviving magic users to be hunted down like animals
I was happy to hear that there was Elf’s in this world though I had pictures of me indulging in “inter-race mating”
Apparently before the fall of the magic continent, magic was a common every day tool used by adventurers and for day-to-day life
But with magic gone. People adapted new ways to revolutionize Sword techniques and created “forms” as such
Scot trains with the Earth form and is in the Advanced Rank
Advertisement
Ah yes, I forgot to mention the ranks of the sword, it goes something like this
Beginner Rank Swordsman
Intermediate Rank Swordsman
Advanced Rank Swordsman
King Rank Swordsman
Emperor Rank Swordsman
God Rank Swordsman
I was also shocked to learn that Elizabeth was an intermediate Rank Water Swordsman
This is quite the accomplishment as most male don’t get past the Intermediate Rank
Apparently, Scot’s Family the Wrathead’s are well versed with the Earth form, and they are the descendants of some famous Emperor Rank Earth Swordsman
While the days and weeks go by, I get more accustomed to the Human language and have been praised by Scot as a genius
Right now, I am around 3 years old and have finally taken my first steps
Apparently, I’m a lot faster at it than most children my age, but that’s probably since I have done this before
While hitting a tree with a wooden play sword one day I’m called out by someone
“James come here we have something important to talk to you about”
It was Elizabeth, she sounds excited I wonder why
“Yes mother?”
Since I already have a mother in a different world it is still a bit weird to say that to someone else, but I guess I’ll get used to it
“We have something to tell you”
Don’t tell me I’m going to get another sibling or something that would be weird, I already have a younger sister, or wait I guess she is older than me now?
“We are going on a trip to see your grandfather and have him give you, your first sword!”
Oh, wow that seems cool, but I don’t know why Scot is a bit down
I guess it’s because he will get a lecture about leaving his responsibilities and going out adventuring
With that said and done Elizabeth stood up and went to her room to go pack some stuff
The following day we get on a horse and carriage probably arranged by Scot’s family side and prepare our 1-week journey to the Wrathead estate
Along the way I pointed out too many people who looked to be adventurers going to clear a dungeon
Once we were stopped by bandits who had their gazes on Elizabeth’s body, but Scot easily had them running with their tail behind their legs
After that Elizabeth would not stop kissing Scot for a solid hour praising him
It was a very cringy thing to look at, but Scot had his chest puffed out thinking he looked manly
Another 3 days later we arrived at the regional lord’s land and when Scot went out to ask how things were going, he got a lot of cheers
Scot must be famous in this land
A lot of young girls were clinging onto him while he was enjoying himself but got hit on the head by Elizabeth after she went into a pouty mood
Before getting to the estate, I was changed into some good-looking clothes
These were handpicked by Elizabeth before we left on our journey
I was also taught the common courtesy and greetings for meeting with the Family’s head, Scot’s father
When we got to the estate, I jumped out the carriage and was greeted by a line of butlers and maids
They all had the “Proper” look on them and didn’t stand out
“Greetings Young James, we have been anticipating your arrival”
The older looking butler said with a smile on his face before greeting Scot and Elizabeth
“Hello” I greeted them one by one as I continued walking forwards before the mansion door swung open
“FHUAHAHAHA WHERE I, MY GRANDSON?”
A mighty voice shouted that while looking at me with a big smile
I am scared
He looked like tall beast with a scar down his right eye and dark gray hair, he had a light grey robe as well
“Hello father it has been a while since we last seen eachoth- “
Scot was cut off by his father
“EH? WHO ARE YOU, YOU DESERTER?, IM HERE FOR MY GRANDSON!”
With this Scot put his head down as Elizabeth patted his back
“Oh, if it isn’t Elizabeth, how have you been my darling?”
Scot’s father said so in a low voice unlike the one he used when addressing Scot
“Hehe I’m good father Edward, how have you been”
Elizabeth said this while greeting the old man with a bow and smile
“FUAHAHAHAHA ah yes I have been great, now is this young boy in front of my grandson?”
With this question It was my time to shine, like Elizabeth told me I gave a bow and addressed myself
“Hello, I am James Wrathead, I am Scot Wrathead’s son, I am currently about to turn 4 next month, it’s good to see you grandfather!”
I said this with my most sturdy voice which I felt would give me a strong aura
Elizabeth said that I should not show any weakness in front of Edward, and I should keep my voice strong while talking to him
“FUAHAHHAHAA THAT’S MY GRANDSON ALRIGHT, COME HERE GIVE THIS OLD MAN A HUG”
As he said this Scot looked up nervously and looked at me before giving me a nod
I walked up to the old man without hesitating and when I got to him, he spread his arms up and lifted me off the ground giving me a strong bear hug
I thought that I would die but I bared with it
After letting me go Edward opened the doors and greeted us into the dining room for a feast, when we got their Scot and Elizabeth talked with a lot of old acquaintances and introduced me to them one by one
By the time dinner started everyone was seated by the table but there was one seat vacant
When Edward noticed this, he gave a frown
“CLAIRE COME DOWN HERE AND GREET YOUR COUSIN”
With these words a little girl probably a year older than me came down waddling down the stairs with a grumpy face and sat down on the vacant seat
She had her arms folded and refused to eat
“I’m not hungry!”
She said this as she was looking at her mother
Her mother was Scot’s Brothers wife her name was Beth
When Claire shouted these words, the whole room went Quiet, the cheerful atmosphere suddenly stopped
I looked right at Edward as I knew he was about to blow his rocket
Just before he did that Elizabeth who was talking to Scot at the time spoke up
“Claire dear is there any reason you won’t eat your food?”
When Claire looked over at Elizabeth’s direction her grumpy mood changed into that of a happy one
“Aunty Elzy”
I’m guessing that was her nickname for Elizabeth but how did Claire know Elizabeth?
When Scot looked over and saw my confusion, he explained that when I was 2 Elizabeth went over to the Wrathead house to announce she would bring me over in a couple of years
During that time Claire became fond of Elizabeth as they talked about various things
When Elizabeth was leaving, she told Claire that she would come back with her son in a couple years and promised to bring Claire a present
Now back to the present
“Aunt Elzy! Did you bring the present that you said you would”?
Claire was clearly looking forward to whatever Elizabeth had brought for her
“Yes, dear I have it right here, but I’ll give it to you after you have had your dinner, so eat up”
“Okay!”
Just like that Claire started scoffing up her food and almost choked a couple of times while being pat on the back by her dad
After eating she suddenly pointed to me
Oh no what did I do wrong
“who’s that”
Oh, she’s just asking who I am
I introduced myself for the 14th time today and then sat back down
Claire looked at me with a puzzled face and then she got up and went around to my side of the table
What is she going to do? What did I do wrong?
She grabbed onto my hand
“let’s go play”
She wants to play. Who do I look like a kid? Oh wait
I agreed and started heading outside with Claire
“Oh, wait James, make sure you back in time for the ceremony”
Scot said that as I was about to leave the house
I nearly forgot about that, that’s the whole reason for the trip
“Alright father”
While Claire was tugging me, we ran outside and started messing about in the barn
We both picked up wooden swords and started doing small mock battles
Surprisingly Claire was pretty good and had won 3/6 games we played
Out of breath she said, “you’re really good, who taught you?”
“I just mess around hitting a tree when I’m bored”
When I said these words, it must have hurt Claire’s pride since she must already be training with a tutor when she has spare time
She suddenly charged at me with the wooden sword when I wasn’t expecting it and it hit me right in the stomach leaving me to fall on my knees and fall on the ground
I suddenly had flashbacks to when I got stabbed in the stomach and I began to puke
“a-are you ok?”
Claire suddenly threw away her sword and came rushing over to me with a worried face, she must have realised that she done something bad
I took a second to ready myself and got up with the aid of Claire’s shoulder
“I’m fine I was just startled, I also just had dinner so getting hit in the stomach must have made me puke”
When Clair heard this, she had a relieved expression on her face and then put her head down
“I’m sorry”
I looked her blankly in the eyes
“it’s alright I forgive you”
She looked up with a smile and laughed, we continued to do a couple more mock battles but most of them ended up in a tie
Before heading back inside Claire looked at me and spoke
“let’s do this again sometime, your strong!”
“sure”
As I answered that we ran into the house, and I got ready for the ceremony
With the help of Elizabeth, I got changed and when we walked into the hall there was everyone who was at the dinner table sitting down and Scot’s dad the family head at the front with a sword in his hand
Elizabeth prompted me to walk up to where Edward was while taking her seat
I started walking while everyone had their eyes faced towards me, even Claire was looking in my direction
I got to the front of the hall
“James Wrathead for the future I bestow upon you a weapon that will carve your name into the house of Wrathead and will bring honour to your parents
Although young, there will be a time when you use this to slice your enemy in half, but remember do not use this for violence, use this for protecting those who you hold dear. With my name Edward Wrathead, 47th and the current Head of the Wrathead house I give you this sword. Its name, Excalibur, take this sword. unsheathe it and take a slash at this orb it will determine what Sword form you possess.”
I take the sword, its heavy but I can manage, if I can’t do this then it will humiliate Scot and Elizabeth
I also want to look cool in front of Claire
I unsheathe the sword, it’s a good sword and it has the name of Excalibur, that was the name of a legendary sword that king Arthur of Britain used in my world
I lift the sword up with all my might and I push forward with the strength of a 4-year-old, not very much but it will do
The sword smashes through the orb with ease and I see the faces of shocked people sitting down I look down and I see the broken parts of the orb have turned multi-coloured
“FWUAHAHAHAHA AMAZING, SIMPLY AMAZING THERE IS NO DOUBT HE IS THE SON OF WRATHEAD TO POSSES ALL SWORD FORMS TRULY OUTSTANDING HE WILL BECOME THE LIGHT OF OUR FAMILY”
With the roar of Edwards speech, I guess that I did good
When I turned around everyone sitting had their hands over their mouths
The only sound that was heard for 3 minutes straight was Edwards thunderous laughs
After those 3 minutes Scot runs to me and lifts me up spinning me around
I don’t think that’s a good idea Scot, I was just sick
After putting me down and wiping a small tear away from his eye, Elizabeth came running at me and hugged me unlike she has before
After everything was settled out, I was congratulated by everyone in the house and went for a bath with Scot
Scot kept on going on and on about how this was the best thing that had happened in his life and how we were so proud to be my father
I was just swimming about not listening to a thing he was saying
After I got out of the bath and got into my pyjamas I was put into the same room as Claire and we ended up sleeping in the same bed, since we are both around the age of 4 there is nothing to worry about
While I was talking to Claire, she asked me a question
“Will you be my friend?”
I could hear that she feared getting rejected and had been trying to say that all night
“I thought we already were”
With these words Claire’s face brightened up and she gave me a big hug before going to sleep
When I looked back to see her fast asleep with a smile on her face I turned around and dozed off
When I woke up it was the middle of the night, my throat was dry, so I decided to go get some water
While getting lost multiple times I was met by the old waiter who first greeted me and then I asked him if he could get me some water
When he told me to follow him to the kitchen, I started to talk to him about what had happened today
“You will have a bright future”
Is what he said to me, I really felt happy
After getting me a drink of water, he escorted me back to Claire’s room and left a jug of water on the side of the bed, I said my thanks and headed back to sleep
The following day someone from the royal palace came to visit me and check to see if I did have an affinity for all the sword forms
With a nod and a smile on his face he said
“This boy will become this country’s next shield”
With these words Edward who was Already happy gave of another huge roar
“FWUAHAHAHA DID YOU HEAR THAT MY BOY? YOU WILL LEAD THIS COUNTRY TO VICOTRY”
after giving a sincere thanks and farewell to the man who came from the royal palace, I went to see what Claire was doing
When I went around the back, I saw her practicing the sword
“Can I join you?”
With a delighted face Claire threw a wooden sword in my direction and we sparred almost all day
The following week was just people from other major family’s coming to greet me and interviews for the head of the family
Then it was the day to head back
Claire was almost in tears; I’m guessing I’m her only friend around the same age as her
She was told that I would be coming back at age 7 to start seriously training the sword
“that’s too long!”
To be honest I was also very sad, I promised her that I would come back and gave her the jade necklace that I had been working on with the help of Elizabeth
She took it and her tears stopped
“I’ll keep this until you come back ok!”
With a smile I nodded and bid farewell to her and the rest of the people I had come acquainted with
With that Me, Scot and Elizabeth got on the carriage for our trip home

8 505Oracle by Default
Oracles are known as divine handouts passed down from the Holy Creator. There are times when evil exist and the Holy Creator wishes to intervene, to which the title of the Oracle is bestowed upon an individual to become the Creator's will in physical form. The Oracle's mission is to then gather heroes from different races to purge the evil. “For the reckoning that is to come, all are tested. Thou shall be the shadow of which valiant souls shine and guide thee through harsh trials. Till oblivion comes, do not turn astray but to continue down the path thou chosen to walk. Lastly, thou must not see eye to eye with, but against the world.” A mysterious man engraved a seal onto Kihet before saving him from being consumed by the flames. The seal seems to have a strong connection with the legends of the Oracle and a Tower with no entrance that suddenly sprouted near the village. Throughout years, his efforts to study the strange tower remained fruitless. Then one day, the village decided it was time for his friends and him to become envoys to look for the potential evil the Holy Creator detected. Before Kihet can set off on his journey alongside his friends, he has his own set of problems to overcome against the village. Note: It's slow. There is romance, but it plays a small role that I don’t know if I should add it in the tags. Main story starts at Chapter 12. Chapters before do contain meaningful context for the rest of story.
8 124Magic Continent Zero
