2 Theodoric Windsor

*Ding*

I woke up to a sharp chime and groggily opened my eyes. The last thing that I remembered was selecting a unique skill for some game. I wonder what was that all about.

when I had completely opened my eyes, I saw a small pale blue window hovering in front of my eyes.

*Daily reward:

Day 1: 100 gold bars.

Accept to send the reward in inventory.*

'Is that a hologram or something?'

I thought and tried to touch the semi transparent window with my hands.

Unfortunately, I could barely move them.

'Am I wrapped with something? It sure feels like it.'

"Aa- Aa-"

When I couldn't move, I tried talking, but instead of words only little grunts like that of a child came out.

I tried moving my entire body, but I could barely move anything. My whole body was wrapped with something that felt like a comfortable cloth.

Could it be that situation?

Of course. It must be that situation.

I have reincarnated....and with a system as well. I had certainly read those online novels that talked about reincarnation or transmigration to a different world and always felt that they all followed the same boring hackneyed plots but some cliches become cool if they happen to you. And thus I was greatly excited.

I took some time to calm down and started thinking about the semi transparent window still hovering above my head.

I couldn't speak and thus tried using my thoughts.

'Accept!'

My idea worked wonderfully and I was instantly notified that the reward has been successfully deposited into my inventory.

'Inventory!'

I excitedly shouted in my mind so as to see if it would work and it worked like a charm.

Another semi transparent blue window with couple of blocks appeared in front of me. One of those blocks even had a holographic image of real gold bars.

And a '100' at the bottom right corner of the block depicted the number of gold bars.

The inventory window had 100 blocks; 5 blocks in 20 rows. This meant that only 100 types of things could be kept in the inventory space. I wanted to know if there was maximum weight capacity of the inventory but chose to check it out later as I had no way of checking it now.

I closed the inventory window.

'Status.'

I proceeded to check my status and saw a new semi transparent window open in front of my eyes.

It had all my current stats as well as a 360° holographic image of myself wrapped in the bundle.

**********************************************

The first thing that grabbed my attention was my name, Theodoric Windsor. The name had a European feeling to it and I liked it. My race was human and I was at level 0.

'I wonder what would I have to do to level up.'

But that could be left for the latter.

When I saw my stats, I was pretty disappointed as everything was set to one but it was not surprising as I was just a toddler.

'I wonder what my age is.'

I thought before I started the description of the various stats in the status window

VIT: was the acronym for vitality and every point in vitality meant ten points in HP(health points).

STR: was strength and was the stat for strength in my body.

AGI: was agility which was the stat for speed.

DEF: was defence which was the stat for my physical defence.

MAG: was Magic and every point in MAG meant 10 points in MP(mana point).

RES: wad the acronym for resistant which was the body's resistance to magic.

After I was reading through all the description, I closed the status window as well. I tried calling out to few other things like map, shop, etc. but it would seem that there was nothing else to see.

Suddenly, I heard a door open and saw a young black haired woman come into my field of vision.

"xx....xxxxx...xxxx"

Her face brightened up...upon seeing my face and she started saying something in an unknown language with a kind and gentle smile on her face. She even picked me up and kept something or the other.

"Xx.xxxx.xxx.x.x."

I heard another voice that belonged to a male and soon found out that it belonged to a middle aged man in his prime. He had sharp features and thick yet well groomed beard that accentuated his masculinity.

There were a few other voices but I couldn't properly see them but I sure was able to see a few other things..... Such as a fireplace, a chandelier on the ceiling. The walls were all made out of stones and a lot of mortar while ceiling was made out of wood and timber....

Although the room was not modern, it was cozy.

While the young woman and the middle aged man were talking to me, I was reminded of my parents for some reason. Looking at my holographic image, I would say that I was already a few months old and I had this man's eyes.

'Perhaps, they are my parents.'

In my last life, I have severely let down my parents and this time I am not going to repeat the same mistake.

In my last life, all my parents wanted for me was to become happy, content and safe. They supported me in everything and did not stop believing in me even on the day they died.

I know they might be hurting upon seeing me destroy myself but I didn't pay attention to them and took their care for granted. Whenever they asked me of my future plans, I felt threatened and retaliated by blaming them for my uselessness.

I truly was an @$$°°°°.

But this time, I am going to do everything that I wish I could have done...
