1 Chapter 1: Rest In Piece

"Sigh! So I didn't die but got reincarnated instead. And here I thought that I could meet my big sister in the afterlife. " Ian said in a lamenting voice.

Massaging his aching forehead gently due to the sudden influx of memories, Ian stood up from the bed he was sleeping.

He walked near the window, slowly opened it, and saw bustling people on the streets.

Feeling a cold wind touching his face made his aching head subsided a little.

Recollecting from the memory and observing it in your own eyes make things different. It's like how you saw the main cast of a movie on the screen and when you saw them in real life.

It's hard to explain but still different.

Ian recalled that this world was vastly different from earth.

The residents in this world have a Gifter that has superpowers that protect the world from invaders.

World Government. They are one of many big organizations that have many holds on so many Gifters.

Contrary to other Big Organizations in the world, The World Government organization was created to protect its citizens from the threat that comes from the portals.

They also created rules that can maintain the order of the world.

After Portals appeared in the world, chaos was given rise to the world of stability. Orders that the former government created were gone. Monsters coming out of the portals slaughter people on sight either the young, old, or infants. They didn't spare anyone even if they begged for mercy. Monsters that intrude on the planets through the portals enjoyed the fear that they generated.

And also that day the Gifter was born. People who fight the monster heroically to their limits are bestowed Ability that can preserve their life and home planet.

Numerous organizations were created but only for their gains and greed, not to the world's success so WG or the World Government was created.

Big organizations didn't care at first since many also built their groups but it served as their regrets in the future where the WG thrived.

And that Era was called Gifters Era.

Ian came back to his awareness when he felt a vibration from his pocket.

Looking at the caller's name makes him dazed for a moment since he remembered someone from his past life, he was hesitant but still answered it.

"Are you okay? Did something happen to you? Why are taking so long to answer your phone?" A flurry of questions with a concerned voice was heard on the other side.

Hearing the anxious voice makes him emotional.

"I am fine Big sis don't worry, I just woke up so I didn't pick the call fast," he responded.

"Is it about your Job? I said that you don't have to work and live with me with your nieces. And my husband was not against it too so why are you so stubborn?" A mix of concern and anger was heard from her sister's voices.

When Ron or Ian heard it, he suddenly recalled what his sister was talking about.

The former owner of the body was Sis-Con so hearing that her sister married a man with 2 kids made him hate his sister's husband, he thought that her husband was just toying with her, but he didn't.

And since he can't beat the shit out of his brother-in-law because his sister's husband was a high ranked Gifter, he lived on his own without his sister's help saying that he was already an adult and he could take care of himself.

Ian shakes his head from the childishness of his former self.

And for his job he was a porter. Porter was a job for low-level Gifter, they carry essential items that are needed by the Raiders that clear the dungeons. They also pick the crystal that the monster drops or take it inside their bodies by skinning it and the most strenuous thing that a porter does because higher Level portals have so numerous monsters with a hard and bulky body that makes obtaining portals difficult.  

He didn't become a porter because he liked to, it's because he didn't have a choice.

Ian Ability is a weight changer that was ranked as E which is the second to the worst.

It's ranked low because of its limitations. If it's not limited then for sure it's on a higher rank.

What his ability could do was limited. It can make anything he touched reduce its weight and weightlessness. But only double its value.

He can double the weight and mass but due to his lack of endurance, he can't maintain his power.

He didn't train his ability and body because he only became a porter to earn money for his hobby.

After his sister becomes married he indulges himself in pleasures. He didn't pay for his rent since his brother in law lent him his apartment. 

The only thing he paid was his food so the rest of the money was sent to the Red District where he can play to his heart's content which is his new hobby.

His Sister called him from time to time to check him but didn't visit him since she was also busy taking care of her 3 children so she had no time to see him personally.

Which makes the former owner of the body think that his big sister didn't care about him. So he divulges himself to pleasures that it also becomes the reason he was sent to heaven at an early age.

Ian prayed in his mind Rest in Peace to the former. Since he was already in the body he will just accept it with a smile on his face while thanking god knows who.

"I'm just fine Big sis so you don't have to worry about me. Being a Raider was hard so it's nothing new for me." Ian said. 

"What are you talking about, even if you're 20 or 40yrs old you're still my baby boy. "

"I know but it's still embarrassing so stop calling me that." 

Ian was embarrassed when he heard her big sister called him a baby boy. Although he was a boy in her sister's eyes, his mind was of a middle-aged man. And being an uncle in soul didn't mean he hated the care his big sis showered him since what he loved the most was his former sister's love for him in his previous life. Alas, life had so many unexpected things for him that he lost her where he didn't expect.

"Who said it's embarrassing? Tell me his/her name that said to you that and let me talk with her/him," she declares agitated.

"hahaha why are you so agitated, I'm just kidding. But seriously, don't call me that in front of my nieces since it's going to damage my Uncle pride."

"Uncle Pride? Pffff. "

" ahem! Enough jokes. By the way, why did you call me?"

"Why? Can't I call you if there's nothing important?"

'Damn her mood swings come fast' Ian thought.

" That's not what I mean. I know that you're busy so It's rare for you to call me at this time,'' he said with a gentle voice to calm his about to berserk Big sister.

"Oooh! I thought you mean something else. That's right, I have work near your place so I plan to visit when we clear it."

"What about your daughters?"

"My husband was going to take care of them since It's his relaxation so it's okay"

"Is that so? Then just call me when you're near so I can get you"

" There's no need since I will directly go to your apartment"

"Ok. Is that all?"

"Yes."

"See ya"

"Love ya."

"Mm"
