"%@%$$@%@$$#@*" Huh...weird..that''s the sound of a woman, right? *Sreg I try to move my body, but it''s very heavy I try to open my eyes. Ooohhh, I could open it. My vision is very blurry. There is a shillouette of a big woman.... Huh?!! Big woman! A giant!! No wait, maybe its me who shrink? Ummmm.....so the crying baby sound is mine, and this is the legendary rencarnation.....Ok Wait, no!!!! The hell is this!!! How am I reincarnated, I don''t even know why i''m dead!! Hufff..hufff...calm down...calm down...*Sigh The baby crying sound stopped So, I''m reincarnated, and the big woman shillouette there is my mom, right? Wait there is another shilloette. It''s a woman, maybe she is the nurse who help my mother birth "%@$$*#$&@, Vina," the nurse said. I don''t know what''s she talking about, but I think my mother''s name is Vina. Umu, a fine name it is. I look at my mother, I think she is breathing heavily, but I think there is a trace of relieves in her breaths. She look at me, it''s only my feeling but I think she''s beautiful. Well, I mean she''s still blurry in my eyes. She smiles at me. Why I know? Because there is this warm feeling radiated from her. *Brakk So noisy, what''s that sound. I try glance around. I think that is the sound of a door. Why am I so sure? Because there is this shilouette of a man coming from there. Mother looks at him, still the same warm feeling, so i guess that''s my father. "$%@^%##*$$, Fran," my mother says. So my father''s name is Fran, huh? Not bad..... Father looks at me happily, there is this bright feeling from him, so i guess he is a cheerfull person. He look at the both of us with the strong warm feeling not losing from my mom "^!$#^$^%^&@*?"father says. I think he''s asking to mother, from the tone. "%#^&$&@&^$*, Raina," mother says while looking at me. *Shivers Somehow I got goosebumps, why you say? Because she says "Reina" while looking at me. Does that mean, no, no way, maybe it''s the nurse'' name. There is no way....right? "$@%$##%$@*, Reina" father says, looking at me warmly. No father, you''re not helping me!!!!! I''m, a man, reincarnated into a girl ..... I cried * * * After that, for one full month, I cried every time I remeber it. My pride, my junior, I have to say goodbye for all of it. *Sobs So, yea, I accept the reality, I''m a girl. *Sobs I really accept it, still I really wanna cry * * * 2 months passed, I''m getting irritated of how boring and embarrassing to be a baby is. I can''t really move, I only can roll, sit lift hands, lifts legs, repeat. Yet I still trains my body so I can move easier.If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it. And besides that, I can''t, I repeat, I can''t control my body at all!! If I felt I want to pee, I peed. If I felt I want to poop, I poop. It''s so frustating and disgusting at the same time. And I cry to let my mom change it, and by the time my mom come to me. She put a warm smile seeing my condition, which made it more embarrassing!! And the feeding time, ooohhh guess what? Breasfeeding was very shameful that I can feel my pride as a man shatters little by little And, guess what. I''m born with a handicap! It has been two months and my vision still blurry! I mean, come on, man. Whoever you are, you reincarnated me and gave me a handicap?!! Well I have my other sense so I will train them, but come on.... Back to te topic, in these two months, I realize something, even though i can remember who am I in the past life, but I can''t remember peoples in my past life! Well, maybe that''s for prevent me from indefinite sadness, so it''s okay, I guess? So, other things that i figured out is.... my father is a hardworker. Why I know? Because I only see him at morning and night. And my mother? She''s so kind, she always radiating that warm feelings. I bet she''s beautiful!! O yea, and for the language, I''m still workin on it, goddamn it''s so hard!! And that''s it for the report, hope I can be a good son to them! Oh, yea.....I''m a girl. *Sobs sobs * * * 6 months passed, I finally grasped this world language, hell yeahh!! Now, concuer the world, haha!!!!! ...... So, my activities every day is wake up, eat, train my body, train my senses, sleep, repeat. My vision is still blurry, I guess my eyes looks normal because seems like my mom and dad never notices it. For my body training, I can crawl by now, I started to explore my room, well because the door is always locked. So, my room is made of all wood with only the foor is from stone. So, I guess I''m in a village? And for my senses training, I have enhanced my smelling to the point I can distinguish person by its smell, and I can hear what''s outside of my room, I hear some people talk, but not so clear, I can hear some other weird noise, but well that''s for I know later. Besides my normal senses, I can feel like there is more, I can perceive the surrounding when I close my eyes, I think I got myself some supervision!! Also, I have accepted my gender change fully, I mean fully to not cry when I remember it. But I don''t know if I can marry. Well, I mean, I''m a man!!! Or ex-man to be precise. So, I guess that''s for the report, hope you enjoy it! .... I''m talking to myself again, I''m so lonely *Sobs * * * Almost one year passed. I got up from my bed. I washed myself, and walked through my house to the kitchen. My house looks....fine I think, most of it made from wood beside the floor. I think I reincarnated to the middle age time. "Good morning, Sweetheart!!"the lady said while cooking in the kitchen. She is tall and slender, with black straight hair tied to a pony tail, long and slender legs, pretty face with sharp jaw lines and cheek bones. The beautiful lady smiles warmly at me while I sit on the chair. "Morning, mum!!" I said, enjoying the piece of art in front of me. "Sweetie, can please wake up dad for me, tell him the breakfast is ready," she said. "Yes, Mam!" I said, while giving her military salute and grinning from ear to ear. I walk to dad'' room, or my parents'' room, precisely, while thinking the advancement I make after 8 months. First of all, my body training, I can walk now! HAHA! Taste that, weak baby legs! Now, I could walk through the house! I wanted to run too, but last time I fell, so my mother forbade me from running until I''m at least one and a half years old (Come On!!!). Altough kind, mom''s not stupid, she thought I can undsrstand her. So, sometimes, my acting skill didn''t work at all! *sigh Second, my sense training. I could feel all my sense were stronger than before, even stronger than when I was in the past life. And my supervision got improves too, I could perceive anything around me veeeery detail, I could feel the grooves on the woods, the insects in my room, the water drip on my room when it was raining. It feels, I don''t know, it''s hard to describe, eye-widening..maybe? Third, my parents knew I''m blind. Well, maybe that''s because I always closed my eyes when I walked through the house. Actually, no, maybe it''s because I almost closed my eyes the entire time. My parents only worried in the beginning though, because I showed them how good my godly supervision is!!! So, all ended well, I thought. But I thlught I can see if I could find glassess, no? Well, maybe that''s for later. I couldn''t see any color with my vision, though. O yea, lastly, every-time I showed them my pretty great skills, like walking at 9 months, could understand their talks, and even could talk while obly sinple words, and my supervision, they always brag themselves. They always said, "As expected from our daughter!" Seriously, I think they''re too accepting. Because of that, I thought I can train more freely. So, back to the present, I''ve arrived at the wooden door in front of me. I opened the door silently. I used my super-vision. In the room, there was a pretty-big-sized-bed, a cupboard, normal furniture for a room. On the bed, there was a middle-aged man, with messy brown hair and sturdy body. The man snored pretty loud. I walked closer to the bed. I got my mouth beside his ear and shouted. "GOOD MORNING, DADDY!!!" the man jolted and fell from the bed. He opened wide his eyes, showing his pretty-ok-face. "Damn, my ear. Sweety, can you please not shouting on my ears like that?" dad said calm and gently. "No, dad won''t wake up if I don''t shout," I said, showing my innocent face while my twitching refrained myself from burst into laughing. "Dad. Breakfast is ready, wash yourshelf firsh" I said, still with the innocent face. Dad''s face twitched a bit because of that. Hehe~ "*sigh. Okay, now can you please get out while I''m prepare?" he said "Okie!! Be fash, Daddy!" I said cheerfully. I got out of the room, I saw dad shaking his head with my vision. Teasing dad was always fun. Well, I liked this family. I would do anyting to protect it. At that time, litte did I know that fate would tell the other way Thank you for reading Btw, mother''s three-size is up to your imagination. I don''t do very well at these things. 2. Other World In the middle forest, there was a little, ordinary village. The morning in the village was filled by people activities. There were people in the field, they worked hard to take care of their field. There were people in the market, they were bargaining the item that sold. There were people on the side of the road. They were chatting with their neighbours and friends about many topics. At the village''s road, there was a litte girl running. She brought a basket on her back. The girl''s forehead was a bit sweating from the exercises. "Oh, Raina. Good morning, running around as always, eh?" one of the villager, an old woman that sold meats spoke to the running kitty while smiling gently. "Good morning, Granny! The usual one, 3 kilos!!" the girl handed the basket to the lady, giving her a full bleaming smile. "Here you go. Take care when you go home," the old lady said, giving the child her basket after filled it with chunk of meats. "Okay, Granny!" after took the basket, the girl starts running again. She ran a few laps around the village before she turned back home. * * * Four years, have passed, now I''m five years-old. Horraaayy! .... Well, let''s wrap up my report then. First, my body training had gone like this every single day. First, in the very morning, like 3 a.m I trained my body in the morning with push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, and squat jumps, and climbing trees until.... 7, no 8 a.m I think? After that, I ran around the village until noon. Then, I helped father at the field until evening. After that, I went to home with father and ate the super-delicous-full-of-love dinner made by mom. Sounds too hard isn''t it? No, I rested when I needed it, too harsh exercise wouldn''t be good for my still growing body after all. And, I''m aiming for six-packs. That''s right! Altough I had accepted my gender change, I still missed my packs. And, I figured that this was another world. This world have magic, and actually pretty similar to the middle age of the Earth. I remembered the first time I knew this was another world. *** Three and a half years ago, I was practicing my sense at the night. And why at the night you ask? Because a certain parents of mine in the pretty far foom were doing their ''night exercise''. I could hear their bed creaked so I thought they were playing the hardcore one. Maaa, anyways, not sleeping and meditating at night could train my senses and mental strength, and the disturbing sound could help to train my focus, so I couldn''t complain any further. Well, it was my fault in the first place for training my senses to the point I could hear them. Because, altough I could hear them pretty clearly, their room wall was thick for the purpose of soundproof. So, I was training my vision right now. Actually, my vision had been enough for me to see more cleary without my eyes. But if my vision could improves further and it didn''t cost me anything, then why not? I have thought about this, but I always used my vision to my surrounding. I have never saw what was inside me, so I tried to see what was inside. I could see my organs, bones, blood. I tried to focus, and I could literally see the tissues inside my body! Well, that was good, if I wanted to do full-health check, I could use this. But, there was something strange, not only the part of my body, I sensed something else, I tried to be more focused, my head hurt a bit, my forehead is sweating. I could see some light-blue colored thing betwees my stomach and chest. Is this..... Qi? I didn''t know, but it must be some sort of energy. ......Come to think of it, this middle-aged time was a cliche time for that.....Could it be? No, no way that is true. I laughed lightly at my thinking. Nonsense, there was no way something like that to happens. There would be no magic, mana, skills, or something like status. Name: Raina Race: Human Age : 1 1/2 years Health: 30/30 Stamina: 50/50 Mana: 180/180 VITality : 3 ENDurance : 4 STRength : 2 AGIlity : 2 DEXrity : 3 Magic POwer : 4 INTelligence : 25 CHArm : 8 LUcK : 10 Skills: Active: ˇ¶Space Vision lv 9ˇ· Passive: ˇ¶Human Language lv 5ˇ·ˇ¶All High Sense lv 6ˇ· Resistances: None Title: {The Reincarnated One} ...... ...... F*ck So it seemed, I had been reincarnated to the world of swords and magic. It''s amazing? Oh, then tell me, what part of it is good? There must be something cliche like monsters, be it in the literal meaning or wearing human-skin! Life in this world would be very, very challenging! Whatever, my resolve even stronger now. I would protect my family, from this world that full of dangers. And to do that, I have to be stronger, stronger than anyone.The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there. * * * Now, back to the present. The search for information about this world can wait. I was still 5 years old. I have very much time. As for now.... ah! The report, yes. Sense training had got lots of improvement. My hearing was so good that I could hear my parents'' "exercise" with crystal clear, cinema like sound. The sound of people outside was a bit loud though, so I would train to focus my hearing to the-more-important sounds around me (Hehe). My smelling is too good at this point, to the point it hurts, so I trained to focus it too, and also maybe trained to smell mana. My vision, oohhh, it is amazing!! I could watch 3D live.... *cough..... ehem..... I could see up to 20 meters, and I can focus my vision to see more detail things, but it cost a bit much mana. Anyways, I have arrived at the front of my house. I opened the door, took off my shoes, and walked inside. I walked to the kitchen and found mother was preparing for lunch. I held my breath, I made my footsteps as lightly as possible. I approached her from behind, I carried a chair, placed it behind her, and climbed on the chair. I got behind her ear, and said with deep voice. "Hey, Babe. Shall you be my new toy tonight?" with that, her body froze. I tried to exclude malicious aura as thick as I could. I tried grab her neck from behind, but before that. *GRAB Ahhhh, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!!! Mom grabbed my hand very hard that I thought it would break. "Sweety, don''t you know that there is a limit for pranks???" she said. She smiled gently, but I knew that''s a fake smile. Her eyes didn''t smile at all. The temperature of the atmosphere around us dropped suddenly. I shivered, trying to keep standing before the "Great One" in front of me. "Nee~, Raina. Every act have it''s own consequenses, right? Then, let''s discuss how you pay for yours?" she asked gently, which made me shiver harder. "I-I, I''m S-sor-r-ry," i stuttered, my eyes were tearing up. I sweared, from that day. I wouldn''t anger up mom again. That is, if I could get out from this alive. * * * Vina was my name, although I''m a new mother with little experience, I always tried my best to be a good mother for Raina and a good wife for Fran. I always prepared love and food for them. I would always toom care of them. I still could remember the first time I saw my baby. She was cute, and beautiful, more than anything. Fran was very happy when he saw her. He keep saying he would protect the both of us and be a great father. She aas very special to me and Fran. The first year being a mom was very hard. Every time Raina woke up, she cried. She always cried until she fell asleep. I was very worried at taht time, because I couldn''t stop her crying. I felt loss. Fran always told me everyting was fine. But, my worries was for nothing, because after six months, the crying reduced. I was relieved. And what suprised me was, when she was 8 months old, she started crawling I know, it''s not that rare. But what surprised me at that time, she crawled while closing her eyes! After that, almost every time, she always closed her eyes. We came to the conclusion that she is blind. But, special as she was, she never got trip or hit a wall. She always guess the path correctly. No, maybe that''s not right, maybe she could see, only in a different way. She was 5 years now, the action she made, was quite different with the people around her age. She went out before the sun even rise! And then she came back for lunch, after that, she helped Fran until the evening. Truly different from the normal children. And today, she surprised me yet again. I was cooking for my beloved husband and daughter. When suddenly my daughter whispered to me from behind. It sounded too forced to be a voice from an adult. But, what made me believe that was a molester was, the pure malicious intent from her. I knew it was her, but I still couldn''t help but be scared. My heart beat faster, my feet felt numb. But!! I can''t lose! I am her mother!! I''ll teach her what''s the meaning of being a mother is. Ufufufu~ Sweety, you''re a thousand steps too fast if you think you can beat me~ Raina, no matter how much unusual, special, monsterous you are, I will always love you. We, will always love you. * * * 12 hours had passed. It was almost midnight now. I was doing some training right now. The punishment.... the punishment was not harsh, totally not harsh. Only 4 hours lecture and extra-extra-housechores for 3 weeks and somtehing else...... *shivers... So, I was experimenting with mana right now. I have been trained since.... 2...to 3 weeks ago? But I hadn''t get any clue to use it. I tried to use..... may things, and the conclusion was.... eight-grade syndrom ways is not good. It only made me embarrassed. And I thought, maybe I have to learn how to control it first? So, tonight, I would try to control the mana in my body, because I thought it would be easier. I was focusing my vision to see the mana inside my body. I didn''t have any headache anymore when I focused it to this extent. I saw the familiar light blue energy I tried to focus around the blue light. I could see..... euhhhh.... a thin lane where the mana went to my brain. That was for my vision I guessed. I saw other lanes, many of them, the lanes spread to all the part of my body. But, all the other lanes were still closed. Well, guess I would try to open it. I focused to the mass of mana. Now, how I move this thing? I tried to imagine it moving, oohh! It moved! Now, what I do with this. Ah, let''s strike whatever jammed the lane with brute power of mana!!! HAHAHAA!! Taste the power of mana!! .....Or not, the mana was liquid like, so there was no enough power. So, maybe the abrasion way, no that''s too long. Make my mana reserve large enough? Naaahh, that''s too much work. Hmmm...... ah!! Maybe the supernova concept!! Yoshaaa! Let''s try it!! Kekeke~ what a genius I am. I focused again at the mass of mana. This time, I made it denser and denser, as dense as possible. I focused so hard, drips of sweat fell from my forehead, my palm was sweating. A little more, just a little more. I managed to make it to a little dot with the size of 2 centimeters. No, more dense than that! I used all my power. Finally, a dense mass of mana with the size of a half of centimeter floating in the center of my body. And, all of sudden, I stopped my control of the mass. *BAM UGHH!! I could literally hear the sound of explosion inside my body. The explosion started to spread to the jammed lines of mana. And.... "UGH!!!" an unbearable pain flowing on every part of my body. I gritted my teeth so hard, I tried not to scream, my parents might barging into my room if I do that. The pain faded, I tried not to lose my consciousness. I tried to focus again, I checked my body again, trying to see what was going on in there. And, what I saw there made me felt an accomplishment. Light blue liquid-like mass, flowing through every part of my body, every part, from the cells, the bones, muscles, except skin. Maybe to prevent the mana from going out. I smiled tiredly, drowsiness flowing onto me. [ Condition fulfilled, granting the tittle: {The One Who Break Limits}] A monotous voice sounded in my head. I check the details with the last energy I had. {The One Who Break Limits} All of your training everyday was already off the limit for 5 years old. Yet again, you broke the limit by gaining a fae like, body full of mana, whether it''s pure or not, rejoice, if you meet one of them, they will not hostile to you. Here''s some gift for that. Effect (EX) : No limits hinder you, your growth has no limit. Well, thanks for that, I thought, drowsiness enveloped me completely. 3. Body Cheat In the middle of the forest, in a village, in a house, there was a room. Everything inside the room is regular. The size, the furnitures, even the structure is regular. In the room, on the bed, there was a little girl, with the beautiful cute face that made people charmed, shoulder-length black hair, brown short pants, and white T-shirt. Sun has risen, the light entered the little girl''s room, waking up the little one. "Hoaaamm," she yawned while rubbing her eyes with the back of her palm like a cat. She opened her eyes, beautiful brown right eye and abyss black left eye peeking through the lids. But upon closer look, the eyes almost didn''t reflect any light at all. She closed her eyes, and began to see with her own way. Shock began to showing on her face. She jumped off from the bed. She went out of the room and ran towards the kitchen. At the kitchen, there was a woman cooking for breakfast. With tall and slender body, dark straight hair tied into a pony-tail, truly a sight to see. "Mom, why you didn''t wake me up? It''s sunrise now!" the girl said. "You''re sleeping so tightly, you didn''t even budge when I woke you up," Vina said. Maybe that''s because I overdid it last night, Raina thought, but she wasn''t going to take it for granted. "Then, at least you can try harder!" she said. "Ahh, stop your quarrel already. Wash yourself, eat breakfast, then you can go," Vina said in a strict tone. "Muuuu~," Raina pouted, but she did it anyways. Afterwards, she said goodbye to her mother and ran to the clearing near the forest where she usually did exercises. She did push-ups, sit-ups, squat jumps. Then, she went into the forest and climbed up a tree. Then, she climbed down the tree and climbed up again, and so on.... While doing her hardcore exercise, she looked up towards the sun. Approximately it was almost 9 a.m. She stopped her exersice, and start stretch her legs. But, instead running around the city, she ran into the masses of trees... I want to train with obstacles.....umu, let''s do it!!! she thought. She ran throught the forest, passing through roots that was bulging from the gorund, ran up and down hills, jumped pass a river, and so many movie-like actions. All were with precision to keep her from falling and injure herself. She looked up to the sky again, it was 10 a.m. She stopped, turning back one hundred-eighty degrees, and crouched, gaining momentum. She leaped off the gorund and climbed a tree, she keep climbjng before suddenly stopped and stood on one of the branch. She looked at ther destination. Two hours run from the village, hmmmm.... let''s race with myself then! She jumped off the tree, and landed on a nearby tree''s branch. She jumped, sidestepped, and swung from tree to tree, like she was born for the wildness. The wind blew on her face, making her smiled excitingly. A while later, the village could be seen. She stopped on a branch and looked up. The sun was exactly above her. One and a half hours, applause to me!!! Hehe... She went back to her house, finding her mother cooking for lunch. "Mooomm, I''m homee!" she said cheerfully. "Welcome back, sweety!" Vina said, giving a beaming smile. "Raina, go call dad to join us for lunch," Vina asked, still smiling. "Yee~ss!!" she ran outside the house, she keep running beside the fields until she saw her father. The muscular tough-guy was harvesting the wheats with several other people. "Dad, come home, lunch is ready!!" she shouted as hard as she could. Gaining the attention of all the people present. "Okay, sweety, daddy will go home now!" he said, smiling dotingly. "Heh, so this is the cute little kittie that you always brag so much, eh? Damn, what luck!" one of the people said. "Of course, Dan, she is my daughter after all, nothing can beat her cuteness!!" he smirked. Dan rolled his eyes. "Yes, yes, now go. We can handle the harvest here." "Daaad, hurry up! I''m hungry," Raina said, started waling towards the house. "Yes, coming, Sweetheart!!" Fran followed after her. They ran lightly to their home. A moments later, they were at the front of their house. Fran opened the door, put his boots off, then walked to the kitchen. They found Vina was waiting for the both of them. "Welcome back, Dear. Now, sit down and enjoy our family lunch," she said. "Yes!!! I''m peetty tired now so I''m hungry!" Fran said cheerfully. "But Uncle Dan said dad always brag about me most of the time?" Raina said carelessly. "Eh? N-no, that''s," Fran stuttered, looking away. "*sigh, Dear, like I said. Don''t spoil Raina too much." Vina said. "But, but, I can''t help it. My daughter is the best! I can''t help but brag about her to my friends!" Fran said, pouting. Eh, are you a child? Raina thought, then she remembered something, "Mu? Didn''t mom always brag about me when you talk with neighbour too? Something like, ''My daughter was so diligent, helping her father on the field,'' or something?" Raina said innocently. "Eh, eeeh, you heard that?" Raina asked, her face turning red. "Ha! See, told you it can''t be helped," Fran grinned. "Uuuuu, shut up!" Vina pouted. Raina and Fran laughed. Vina laughed too. Merrious atmosphere lingering around the room.This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience. "Aahh, come to think of it, how was your morning Raina? You got up late, didn''t you?" Fran asked. "Aaahhh! Yes, this morning was very fun dad!" she started talking abkut her running in the forest, of course the way to home too. Every second she talking, her parents eyes getting wider and wider. "Umm, Sweety. You mentioned ''after exercised'' what was that exercise again?" Vina asked, her eyebrows twitching. Still she smiled gently. "Eh? Some push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, and squat jumps," Raina said, tilted her head. She didn''t know the direction of the conversation. "Then, how much?" Fran said, his tone serious. "Eh?" "How much was the exercise,"Fran said, still the serious tone. "Mmm, about 150 each?" Raina tilted her head again. ..... The room was silent now. Both her parents''s was surprised and worried at the same time. "Raina, you''re banned for leaving this house until you''re nine, no 10 years old," Vina said, her tone strict. "Eeehhh!! Whyy!!?" Raina asked, her tone rised. "Because this so called ''exercise'' of yours is dangerous for you," Vina said, her tone cold like ice. "But, but I''ll be fine! I promise not to get hurt, I promise to rest when it''s too much! Besides, I want to be stronger so I can protect mom and dad! So let me continue it, please?!" Raina said, showing her puppy-teary eyes. Vina''s eyebrow twitched, she almost lose the battle. But she can''t lose, even if there was a heartwarming reason for that! Danger is danger after all!! They looked at each other, both of them unyielding. "You promise?" Fran said suddenly. ""Eh?"" They said, surprised. They turned to look at Fran that was crossing his arms in front of his chest. "You promised not to get hurt?" Fran asked. "Fran!" Vina stared dagger at Fran. Fran winced a bit at the stare. "*Cough, it''s fine, if she promised not to get hurt, then why not, it''s good for her health. Besides, a strong body can overcome various jobs in her future after all," Fran said, he smiled gently. Vina''s face reddened, "But, but, how can she get a husband in the future? Most of men don''t like bulgy women!" she said. Mu? A husband? No, never! I''m a guy after all!! Raina thought, even if she had accepted ''his'' gender change. She still doesn''t want romance, ''he'' was not gay after all. "It''s fine, women are not men after all, if they gain muscle, they will be still slender, so I think she still can marry. Besides, even if you were bulgy, I would still love you," Fran said reassuring. Vina sighed, then smiled at Fran. Pink atmosphere forming between the two. On the side, Raina was still thinking about getting married. Maa, what will come, just come I guess. But I wonder how that ''fated one'' can bend me. She shifted back her attention to her mother that was clearing her throat. "So, Raina. I approve your exercise" Raina smiled when she heard that. "But! After noon, you will help me do house chores, after that, yo can help dad," Vina said. "Objection!!" "Objection rejected." "Muuu~," Raina looked at her dad, looking for help. "Raina, you batter not touch yoh mom''s bottom line," he said in a matter-of-fact tone. "Muuuuu~ Fine!! I''ll agree!!" she said. "Humph!" and pouted. She walked to the door, wanted to get fresh air. "Raina~" Vina said suddenly, with a soft, gentle sound. But the oppressiveness brought by the sound made Raina flinched and shivered. "Y-y-y-yes-s?" she stuttered. She turned her head like a rusty robot. She saw her mother was smiling, but the smile didn''t reach her eyes at all. "Where are you going?" Vina said. "Outs-s-s-side?" Raina said, still not got a grip of herself. "My, Didn''t you just promise to help me do housechores?" the atmosphere around her turned darker. "You won''t break your promise right? After all, I hate people who break their promise the most," the atmosphere turned even darker. "N-n-no, I-I w-won''-t-t," Raina said. She shivered even harder. "Good," Vina said. The oppressive aura suddenly faded as if it wasn''t there to begin with. Raina noted in her mind, her mother is not only scary, but life-threatening scary. * * * It was night. In her room, Raina was training her sense as usual. Hello everyone! It''s Raina as usual. I was checking the change of my body from the training last night. I was using my vision to get a better look at my body. The surprising thing, tehre was barely any change at all. My musces increased a little, but that maybe the result of this morning''s exercise. I added mana vision, and what I saw made me left my mouth agape. My body was full of mana, more than what I saw last night. If last night the mana was only flowing through every part, this time it was like my body was mana itself. Wait, if my body was like mana.... I rolled up my pajama sleeve and bit my hand as hard as possible. I ignored the pain on my arm and start focused on my vision. I looked at the muscle part that was broken from the bite. I controlled the mana inside my muscle and imagined the tissue reforming. There was no change at all. The pain on my arm was getting worse. I tried to even more focus. And suddenly, the broken tissues started to falling apart. The remains started forming a new one. The wound closed, the pain subsided. I breathed out, relieved. I checked my arm again. There was a little bite mark, but I thought it will fade along with time. [Condition fulfilled, acquired the passive skillˇ¶Regeneration lv 1ˇ·] Ooohhhh, sweet. Even though it was slow, in the future it could be upgraded and be useful. Wait, then, how about this? I gathered mana ob my right hand and compressed it. It was easy compared to regeneration. I tried to punch with my full-of-mana hand. *Swoosh I could feel the increased power of my punch. I tried again with my feet and jumped. I almost hit the ceiling, so I would refrain from doing that indoor. I tried it several times, before a monotonous sound sounded in my head. [Condition fulfilled, acquired the active skillˇ¶Body Reinforcement lv1ˇ·] Pretty good, I guess. It could assist my six-packs-planned body for fighting. Speaking of body, could I control the structure of my body? I wanted to have slender figure, so I would prefer my muscle being dense than bulges. Well, there was no pain in trying, I guess. I looked at my body again. This time, I focused on my muscle tissues. I tried to compress them as much as possible. Nothing happened, well I guess full body at once was too much. I tried it again at my hands, still nothing happened. I waited for a few seconds until one of the tissues moved a bit. It worked!! I focused more and started to add more mana to my hands. Even tough more mana means more difficult to control, but I got enough power to move the muscles. I started to compress my hands muscles again, more, more, more, and more, until I couldn''t compress it any further. When I couldn''t do it any further, I checked at my hands. As expected, both of my hands, that were a bit bulging from muscles, now were back to thin and slender. But when I tried to feel my hands, they were very hard! They were very hard that they were harder than the hoe that my father use every day. I mean, they were made of steel!!! No, wait, that means my six-pack-planned body will be tougher even if they were more slender? I grinned at the thought. Very well, I would gain the hardest body of a human!! Hahaha!!! [Conditions fulfilled, acquired the skill ˇ¶Muscle Tune lv 1ˇ·] Good, I would check the details later. For now, I would compress other muscles at my body. Don''t worry, I wouldn''t strengthen the uneeded one. I wouldn''t want my throat muscle being denser at all. It could affect my voice after all. Then, I spend two hours compressing my muscles into a harder-than-steel state. By the time I finished, it was midnight. My body was all slender now!! Hehe, this is the power of body cheat!! I will beat the crap out of everyone who endangers my family!! Of course, not because I wanted to test my power, not at all. [Conditions fulfilled,ˇ¶Muscle Tune lv 10(Max)ˇ·evolved intoˇ¶Muscle Controlˇ·] Wait, what? So fast!!! Well, maybe it was because I forced myself a bit. But it couldn''t be helped!! This is for my training after all!! Umu, it couldn''t be helped. I checked my status again, but it left me shocked after seeing it.

Fuck 4. First Duel It was a calm morning in the village. The birds singing, the flowers were blooming, (guess the reference). At the clearing near the fields, children were playing with each other. They were playing tag-infect-run game. The chaser would try to touch the other players. The players that got touched will be the sub-chaser, so the amount of the chaser would increase within time. If the last player couldn''t be touched within 30 minutes, the last player won. And if the last player touched, the one who touched her/him would be the winner. With these rules, the last player would be troubled by all the chaser. ....Or so it would have been. Within the group of children. There was a girl who.... a bit different from the others. How much different? Well, she ran around the field, shrugged off the swarm of chaser around her, and even got them to crashed each other. The biggest problem is, she was smiling cheerfully, she didn''t even drop a sweat. And... she didn''t open her eyes either. .... .... Thirty-minutes have passed. They were not even close to touch her, not even once. The girl, Raina, smiled smugly at them and said, "Eeehhhh, that''s all you''ve got? I don''t even have to try," she said while puffed her chest. She was nine years old now. Every years passed, she became more of a tomboy, even one couldn''t easily figure that ''he'' was a girl. She wore a brown fabric pants, a white t-shirt, and a brown leather vest. They were the ones that sold cheaply at some carriage that stopped by to do some brief trade. Her hair was cut short, the same messy model like her father. Her hair was easy to model after all. With all of that, plus her beautiful-pretty looking face and the mischievous smile that even make out her aura, she looked exactly like some rebellious, pretty looking boy. "Raina, you know you''re not normal, right?" one of the boys said wryly. He had a... quite handsome-cute looking face, dark-brown hair, and a body that was a bit tall for his age, about 135 centimeters? With his features, one could see the future where this young boy becomes an eye-catching figure. "Bah! Cayn, It''s me who''s abnormaly strong or it''s just you are too weak?" she said with a stern expression, but one could hear the teasing in her tone. "Tch, Of course the first one, you training maniac," he muttered the last sentence lowly, but not enough as a certain someone had trained her senses over the limit. *SMACK "Say that again and I''ll hit your sorry guts," she said with a gentle smile, the smile not reaching her eyes though. Dark aura started to emitting from her. Like mother, like daughter. The gentle voice carried a ton of oppressiveness that could make even a grown-up man stuttered. "Don''t... say.... that after... you... literally hit me..... on the guts," Cayn said, still laid on the ground while holding his stomach. The other boys laughed at their conversation. Clearly, they had been used to all the weirdness around her. .... .... The first time they met her was a year ago. Back then, they were very irritated of her and clearly hostile to her. Every time they met her, they always challenged her into fights. They were always like dogs and cat. Of course, every time they challenged her, they always went out black and blue. And after a very much kick to their sorry a*ses, maybe out of fear, brotherhood, or whatever mental problems caused by the punches, they started to get close to her, and even befriended her. Well, maybe that was not the right way to see it. She could clearly see the admiration and the respect in their gaze, which made her a bit uncomfortable. Maa, I don''t mind it though, less annoying brats for me. She thought. And after that, once or twice a week, they always asked her for training. Well, it was only a fun game for her though. .... .... The sun had reached the top, it was almost midday. Raina prepared to go home, to do some of tor-housechores her mother assigned her for. She waved at the boys, She just started to run when Cayn called out to her. "Hey, tomorrow, are you in?" he asked. "Nah~, I have my own training to attend," at the mention of this, he seemed a little down. She chuckled, "If you''re that willing to go trainig with me, why don''t join me instead?" she asked. Hearing her offer, Cayn and the boys faces went pale as paper sheet. Of course, they had attended to ther trainjng once, ONCE!!! And at every part of the training, they always left their mouths agape and thought, Human? No, don''t trick us. She''s a monster!! "N-no! Thanks for the offer though," Cain replied, his smile twitching. "A-anyways, you must go home right now, aren''t you? Bye! See you next time!!" he talked, hurriedly, while pushing her out of the clearing. "Hey! Why don''t we g-mmfffhh," one of the boy asked, but smothered by the boy beside him, the boy dragged to the back of the group. Raina didn''t notice this, because she was thinkinng about how to absent from her mother tort-*cough wife training. While running home, Raina checked her status. The absurd number for a child started appearing in front of her.

Report it. Resistances: ˇ¶Mental Resistance lv4ˇ· Title: {The Reincarnated One} {The One Who Break Limits} {Tomboy Bastard} {Friend of Mana} .... In these past few years, she had a bit research about her status. She already grasped some conclusion from it. Health or Hp, This was the same everywhere. When you got it to zero, you''re dead. Stamina, if you got it below ten percent, you gonna feel very tired, if you got it to zero, you would collapse immediately. Mana, if you got it below gen percent, you would feel veery dizzy, if you got it to zero, same like stamina you would collapse immediately. The original amount of Mana Reserve were determined by talent, or something you called family genes. She assumed that the noble family would be naturally talended in magic, because they always kept the talent by marrying with other nobles. Maybe that was also why commoners were below the nobles. Anyways, unlike the others, Mana reserve only increase by hard work, after using mana to below ten percent, the reserve would increase. If you used it until zero, it would increase exponentially. The risk while collapsing would be greater, though. VIT or Vitality, it symbolized the defense capability of a person. By timing it with ten, you got the number of your Hp. If it increases, Hp''s amount also increased, the speed of Hp recovery also increases with this status. Next, Endurance. Well, pretty much the same as Vitality..... Mom and dad must have very much vitality.... hours and almost every day, and still can work until night again. If mother teach me till her stamina out.... she shuddered at the thought. Agility or AGI, this basically applied to all the things that needed speed. Reaction speed, moving speed, etcetera. It also helped with thinking speed, because if you''re faster than your enemies, you can get a headstart in your mind and actions. Dexterity. Well, this was common one, it made you better and more efficient at your moves and skills. It made her muscle-shaping easier. It also helped her to focus her sense and vision better. Magic Power or MPO, it made her magic more effective. It helped her to make her muscles denser. As for now, she only made her muscle denser only when the growth started to made them bulging. She only wanted a six-packs after all, not a whole body of bulging muscle. Intelligence or INT, as the name described, it connected to the thinking speed, brain multitasking, memory skills, and of course, cleverness. This part of her status was so high because every time she trained her vision and every time she used her Muscle Control, she would focus very much that her Intelligence shot up. She practiced multitasking too, which made the growth even more absurd. Charm or CHA, this was the one that would bring lots of trouble if goes up. Luck or LUK, this was the only one that couldn''t go up. Well, maybe there is a way, but she didn''t have enough information. Skills, everyone knew it, some sort of abilities of a person. It could be obtained by doing something repeatdly that made the same principal as muscle memory, or maybe some body adaptation to the environment. For example, the super cheat skill that she got. Passive skillˇ¶Ageless (S)ˇ· Your body is very full of mana. Heck, even your body started to produce mana itself. Your mana will never run out, hence your body will not age after you 20 years old. Effects: - Mana recovery + + - More Mana reserve the more time you live - Harder for your body to get any disease. Resistances, one of the result of body adaptation to things that dangerous for it. Title, some reward for doing something that completes its requirement. Title gave some bonuses to those who got it. Some bonuses were great and some bonuses were.... well...... rubbish. For example, this title she got because she was a tomboy and a bit naughty. {Tomboy Bastard (E)} You always used trousers and t-shirts. Moreover, that mischievous attitude of yours are not female-like at all. Do you know how to be a proper female?!! Effect: When using men clothes, CHA +10 Well, some title did give some good stuff though, for example.... {Friend of Mana (SS)} Your body constitution made you very close with mana. Your ability in magic are greatly benefited, even your mana can replace your stamina. Effects: - Mana Control lv 10(Max) - Reduct the amount mana used For spells and skills by 50% .... .... Well, that was it for the report!! I had already arrived at the front of my house! I opened the door, put off my shoes, and ran to the kitchen. Mom was cooking as usual. Delicious smell lingering around the room as the sound of food sizzling could be heard. Seems like I arrived on time. I put the largest smile on my face and walked to mom. "Mom, I''m home!!" I shouted while dive-hugging to her back, snuggling into her. "Welcome home, sweety. Lunch''s almost ready, call up your dad in the field, please," she smiled gently, combined with her beautiful face, her smile was blinding. I wondered, how did dad get himself such beautiful wife? Maa... maybe that''s for later to find out, I thought. I went to the field and came back with dad right after. We had lunch like every day goes. Still the heart-warming atmosphere like usual too. .... .... "There will be a subjugation tomorrow," Dad suddenly said. His tone sounded serious. I tilted my head, obvious confusion showing on my face. Mother stoppped eating, her expression was grim. I grew even more confused at this. "How was it? Should the others know about this?" She asked, worriness folled her voice. "No, I think no. Only a small group of goblins could be seen. Seems that they have no leader. We will gather a few men tomorrow," he said. My ears perked up hearing the familiar word. Goblins? I mean, it''s that goblin right?!! Goblin! Goblin! (A/N: Goblin Slayer Syndrome :v) I can''t miss thjs chance!! I thought. Recently, my muscle training had made less and less progress. Maybe, I could get something like exp out of them!!! It''s decided!! No one could stop me!! "I want to-" ""No,"" "At least hear me out!" ""No."" I puffed my cheeks at their harmonious answer. Fine!! I''ll go myself!! I can move freely without people anyways, I grinned at the thought. Unfortunately for me, mom read the expression on my face and said, "My, my, if you ever think about going out alone, less food for a month, no morning training, more wife training," mom''s gentle voice reached my ears, making me shuddered uconsiously. I turned my head to mom. She was smiling gently and calmly, but I could feel the rooms temperature had been dropped several degrees. I didn''t dare to look at mom''s eyes. "Bu-bu-but, I-I will be f-fine, I-I''m stronger than other kids..... after all!" I managed to squezee that sentence out of my mouth. And maybe because of that, the tenperature rised a bit. Gaining a bit my courage, I spoke smugly, "And, I''m confident that most of people in this village can''t beat me!" I puffed up my chest, clearly took pride of my achievements. "Oh? Let''s see then, you fight with your father. If you lose, no training again until you turn adult," mom seemed enjoying this, the room''s temperature warmed a litttle. "Then, if I win, I will paricipate in the hunting!!" I said. I would not take my words back after all. It was good for testing my power and prowess!! "Then, I will remind you that your dad is one of the strongest men in the village. So if you back out, no one will laugh at you~," yup, mom enjoyed this at the fulliest. Maybe it was rare for duel in the village..... "Of course no~t, let''s see who will win, and who will lose," I said playfully, with defiant smile across my face. Well then, father, don''t disappoint me, okay? I smirked again at the thought. ..... ..... Thirty minutes till the duel began. Raina was preparing herself for the fight. She changed her training clothes to the one that she bought only for fights. A white T-shirt that she had the bottom-part cut, revealing her hardened, six-packed stomach. Paired with black short pants, which made her move more freely. And with her handsome-pretty face, she looked even more like stunning, young-man with a sturdy but slender body. The sight that could make young girl cried in excitement. Pleased with the preparation, she went out her room. She ran, full of anticipation. She felt excited, how her first decent duel would go on.
