I Refused To Be Reincarnated
"In order to survive the future great war, we must take drastic measures. We need to summon warriors and train them before time runs out." Thus, millions of earthlings were reincarnated in an alien, medieval world governed by swords and magic to save its prophesied doom. Among those individuals, one's situation inexplicably deviated from the others. Thrust into a rotting house in a ghostly body, Adam found himself bound to a wailing baby. With a heavily damaged soul and the snarky remark of a system, he began his years-long quest to recover his body. Armed with his mind, he'll educate the baby and slowly watch him turn into a good youth. However, he would have to make a choice: suffer as a ghost until he finds an alternative that might not exist, or possess his body and reincarnate. However, he was far from imagining how dangerous this world full of possibilities could be, prompting him to question everything he knew... Including himself and this world's intentionally blurred history. ********************************************** [WebNovel Spirity Awards 2024 Entry] Discord server: https://discord.gg/3zrgeP8yFv Note: Hello, this is my first novel, and I'm doing my best to write it in English.

A Mother's Puzzle
As they walked on the delicate white pavement of the street, the soft sound of their step carried by a gentle breeze, Julius suddenly frowned.
'Should I ask him now?' He thought, hesitation filling his mind. He wanted to know if his big brother was a summoned too. Yet, he was afraid to ruin their exploration with such a serious topic.
'I want to know,' he thought, a spark of determination chasing his doubts away. With a cough to draw Adam's attention, he asked solemnly, "You were sleeping when we spoke about summoned. To summarise, they are people coming from another world. Are you one of them?"
Stunned by the question, Adam looked at Julius, noticing his trembling eyes and feeling his doubts. "This question must have troubled you," he started, shrugging and adding, "I've always told you I came from somewhere else where magic didn't exist. I can't remember much, though."
