1 Prologue

My name is Alex White, 38 years old, your average human being on earth that you can find anywhere with its population of 7 Billion and more, at least I once was. You must be confused about why am I having an internal monologue, well let me explain.

Just a while ago I was your still average human being with no notable trait other than being average, that's right I am as average as you can be. From my elementary days until going into a university I was that average student that the teachers won't remember or take note of as I was always in the middle of the class in terms of grades and had no notable achievements except for doing everything average if you call that achievement that is.

As I was returning home from work, I suddenly noticed that everything around me was quiet. It was so quiet that I could feel my hair raising, warning me of something bad is going to happen soon, and if I don't get out of there then bad luck would befall upon me. That's what my gut said.. or I think that's what it wanted to convey... I cant communicate with my gut you see? We all can't.

As a person who does not believe anyone or anything other than of course myself, I did what my gut immediately told me... I ran.. I ran and ran and ran and ran and..... ran with my head down not knowing where my legs will take me... yeah, pretty stupid ain't I? Stopping somewhere since I was exhausted rather quickly... what? I don't do sport when I was still a student, besides, I have no time to exercise now since I have lots of work, a pretty common thing to us corporate slaves.

The first thing I did after raising my head was looked around, finding myself in a busy street.. what? you did not think that I would be in some dark cliche/generic/abandoned alley, would you? now back to where I was...

Looking around I noticed that I was in Bar Street, a street which was full of bars and night clubs with a bunch of hookers waiting for some lonely guy to come up and pick'em or some lonely virgins who just wants to leave their virgin life.

Finding myself at the entrance of a bar, once again I questioned myself on why have I not suspected anything at that time. I mean, the streets are pretty much packed with people coming and going on some bars and night clubs, even if I jogged my way here I was sure that I would bump someone, I ran all the way here with my head lowered too and I did not bump on anyone which was pretty much stupid or illogical.

Maybe me finding myself in this situation was already a given.. and I just did what a normal human being would do, that is to struggle through the inevitable. hmmm.. now that I think about it how the hell did truck-kun-sama came there unimpeded? anyway back to where I was at that time...

As I was contemplating whether I enter the bar or not, a scream caught my attention followed by more screams. I turned my head to the direction where it came from and that was when I noticed a majestic being filled with light, honking his way through the crowd of people on the street. As people made way for it in a panic, I noticed the direction it was heading... the bar behind me.

My mind was interrupted by a loud honk signaling the inevitable... or that's what people around me thought as I was the only one remaining in the middle of its way... again before the inevitable. Looking at their screams and at the phone cameras pointed in my direction I could not help but marvel at how the hell did they get in there without me noticing? Was it because of me having an internal monologue that missed it, and that I was too focused on my mind that I totally forgot for a moment that the majestic being was already coming towards me?

Jolted by the loud honk, I did not hesitate to run directly at the nearby alley that can only fit a single person inside.

*huff* *huff* *huff*

Gasping for air once inside, I turn around only to be met by white light. And with a loud bang!! I again for god knows how many times it was already witnessed something illogical happened. Truck-kun-Sama bulldozes its way towards me as my back was against the endgame wall. Feeling the inevitable, I just closed my eyes and wait for it which surprisingly did not happen. Feeling the vibrations on the wall my back was leaning I immediately gave my gratitude thanking that the inevitable did not happen.

*phew* "Thank the Gods I did not di-"

*bang*

Something breaking on my head was the last thing I heard before I lost my consciousness under the glaring white light emitted by truck-kun-sama seemingly trying to say how naive I was for believing I was saved.

*back to the present*

Well, that was it... I died... I think. Looking all around me all I could 'see' is darkness.. and damn is this how a soul or a spirit look like? A white ball made of light... hmmm.. it is more appropriate to call it a wisp if I were to describe it. Anyhow as I look around me I feel kinda weird, I mean having a 360-degree vision is kinda weird in its own right when you are used to only seeing what was in front of you, your whole life.

As for what am I feeling right now? well, you could say that I feel nothing.. which is weird again. I really feel nothing, Not hot or cold, maybe this was because I don't have skin or body to feel anything?

Checking out the in's and out of my 'body' or soul or spirit? I could not spot anything. Maybe this was because there was literally nothing to spot on?

*pfft* 'hahahahaha'

Man forcibly laughing because of a horrible joke is not funny, get it? not funny?

*pfft* 'hahaha'

*sigh*

Okay, it's not, I wonder how many minutes has it been 30? 50 minutes? it has yet to pass 1 hour and I am now on the verged of going cuckoo. Man... for a guy like me who was used to being alone it's... kinda weak? I mean most of the novels I've read had some guy that still stayed sane despite being here for like 1 million or even 700 million years.

Sigh... if only I have some anime or games here... I would probably still be sane for at least another week or so... hmmm... Now that I think about it maybe I would be reincarnated to another world? The conditions are just right with me dying due to truck-kun-sama being the most important. The flowerpot? If not because of truck-kun-sama would that thing suddenly fell on me? so no matter how I think about it, it was truck-kun-sama that killed me and not the flowerpot, so yeah I might be reincarnated.

Just as I was thinking about what would I do if I were ever to reincarnate, I suddenly noticed the sudden shift in gravity. I don't know if gravity ever exists here... but I could feel something is pulling my soul or spirit body towards a certain direction. 'Shaking' due to excitement the last thing I thought before blacking out was.

'Is this it?'
