1 Now That's A Dumb Way To Die!

"Don't do it, Karina... don't you f*cking do it... WHAT DID I F*CKING TELL YOU!?!?!?"

A man was seen raging at his computer, screaming obscenities at it.

Eventually, the man calmed down and asked himself, "What am I getting mad for? It's just a novel after all..."

Yeah, just a novel. One that he read day and night. One that held a special place deep in his heart.

The man stood up from his chair and headed off towards the bathroom, closing the door behind him as he exited his room. As he entered the bathroom, he got into the bathtub and started... jacking off.

As he continued jacking off, he was nearing his limit and ejaculated.

"EAHUFAHSUGAHW"

He shouted in pain, then gasped, and he collapses inside of the bathtub.

A family member, more specifically his mother, heard his scream of pain and ran up the stairs, but in her rush, slipped and fell down the stairs, hitting her head against the sharp end of a step.

Two down.

...

'What da fuq happened?'

He was confused.

He did not know what led to him floating in an incubator filled with water.

He knows that he died, that's for sure. After all, he had read and watched many isekai novels and animes.

'So... what da fuq happened?'

He scrunched his babyish face, trying to recall the events leading up to his death.

"Oh...ah... I see..."

Well, that's a dumb way to die for sure.

He tried to control body, but alas, it was for naught.

'So... I'm a baby? POG.'

He gets another chance to restart his life, and in a different world no less!

This will be his chance for starting life in another world!

He'll try to be less of a scumbag, that's for sure.

[Welcome, Host! I am the Stats system. Call upon me if you wish to know your status.]

'You're f*cking kidding me aren't you...'

He shouted in his head, 'Where's my gift pack? My cheats? My wishes?!??'

[Bro shut the f*ck up and stop shouting.]

'Huh?'

[I meant, please be quieter host. You were selected for the Stats system. This is a great boon to you, host. You have an advantage over all other races on this planet.]

'The f*ck bro? I don't care about that sh*t, just give me my starter pack!'

[Host, the environment and body that you were born in could be considered a starter pack on its own.]

'Huh?

[You sure have a love for the word, 'Huh' don't you? Anyways, if you view your status, you will understand my words, host.]

'...Status.'

Title: The Secret Weapon

WIS: 20

'Holy...sh*t...'

Rege was speechless.

He had nothing to say about his stats. After all, they were beyond the pinnacle of what a baby could have.

At least, that's what the system thought.

'FUCK! I'M SORRY FOR COMPLAINING GOD, BUT PLEASE DROP ME IN ANY OTHER WORLD THAN THIS ONE! I DON'T WANNA DIE A VIRGIN AGAIN!'

[...]

It was understandable why he was freaking out.

After all, he was born into the Hasta family of Korontana, the world of chaos.

As Rege was panicking, the system had tried to find a solution to his sudden influx of wild emotions.

[Host... you know what world you've been reincarnated into?]

'No sh*t I do! It's my favorite webnovel, my favorite pastime, and my least favorite world to be reincarnated into!'

[Calm down, host. After all, you have a system by your side, one that no one else have. You are special.]

'Special my ass! Karina has a system too!'

[Well, she's the protagonist of this world, so she doesn't count.]

'Makes sense actually, she's just built different.

[Anyways host, calm down. Someone's approaching you.]

'Ooooh you can sense things like that?'

[Nope. I'm just borrowing your body.]

'wtf?'

Rege regained his focus and tried his best to open his eyes.

He essentially had to pry his eyes open, but he could see two silhouettes.

'That ain't someone! That's two people!'

[...I lied.]

Before it could go any further, their conversation was interrupted by the men talking to each other.

"He's the secret weapon, Father."

"Yes, I can see Saxum."

The men stood in silence, both of them unwilling to break it.

Eventually, the older gentlemen spoke, his voice raspy yet strong.

"When will he be available for use?"

The younger man replied, "When he breaks out of the incubator on his own. We will train him to become the secret weapon of the Hasta house."

"Hmph. 'Secret weapon of the Hasta house? Are you sure it isn't for your friend to use? After all, you're loyal to him like a dog."

The older gentlemen provoked the young man, his voice containing a bitter tinge.

"Watch your words, Octavius."

"How could you talk to your father like that? I raised you badly, it seems."

'Dafuq are they talking about?'

[No clue. After all, I'm a relatively new system too. Although I believe that they're arguing.]

'Yeah, no sh*t I can see that.'

''New system' Huh? I'll keep that in mind.'

'Anyways, let's get out of this incubator. It's uncomfortable.'

'Uh... how do you break out of this?'

[I believe that you must use your innate gift; the Mana inside you.]

'Uh huh, how do you do that?'

'System?'

[...You learn new things everyday.]

As Rege was conversing with his system, the atmosphere between the two men grew tenser by the second, but it was broken off, courtesy of Rege releasing a burst of mana, breaking out of the incubator.

'WOOHOOO! IT WORKED! Anyways, how did I do that again?'

[I believe that you released the burst of mana by creating a mental trigger, host.]

'Oh. That's cool.'

"He's ready for use." Saxum said emotionlessly, moving to pick up his child.

"No. Raise him like a normal child. At least until he's old enough.", the older man interrupted Saxum when he was moving to pick Rege up.

"Why are you being sentimental now, Octavius?"

"..."

Octavius refused to answer Saxum, but instead proposed a compromise. "Let him grow up. If by the time he's 5 years old, and he refuse to train, we will brainwash him."

"And what if he decides he wants to train before then?"

"Then I will let him."

The conversation between the men was tuned out by the feelings of exhaustion in Rege's head, no doubt because of his first time releasing a large amount of his unprecedented amount of mana.

Octavius noticed Rege's eyes drooping and picked him up in a cradling position.

"Sleep, Rege. You will, after all, be the King of the Hasta house -"

He was interrupted by Saxum, who oddly agreed with him.

"And a king needs sleep to grow."
