Chapter-1

"What should I cook today?"

I wanted to cook something good as Father and Mother would be tired after working...

Should I cook fried rice today? Father liked it very much...but without the carrots, else mother will not eat the food.

Ohh right, I am Izumi Reo. A reincarnated person. It was kinda weird to have the same name as my past life, but the kind soul who send me here should have a hand in it.

It had been 7 years since I died in my old world due to the biggest enemy of everyone, Truck-Kun.

And I reincarnated in this different world which was similar to an Otome Game that my cousin forced me to play in the past.

The game was honestly interesting as it had a unique plot unlike others and I became so addicted to playing it that I died when I was playing it in the middle of the road.

The pain that my death bought me was traumatizing as it made me realize the importance of life which I stopped caring about in my previous life. But death made me realize it.

And, right now I am in the kitchen while thinking of what to cook for my parents as they liked my cooking way too much.

My parents were adventures and they had gone on a quest outside the town so I want to make something good for her as they worked hard to earn money for the working of the family.

And to reduce their burden, I even started to make some small things from my past world like some sweets and other stuff as everything else would be revolutionary and could cause problems for me and my parents.

And I sometimes help the shops near the home with some calculations or some new ideas to let them have a growth.

Well, all of that for later.

I walked toward the stove, a small stove that I built the same as the one that was used in old times in my old world and even in this world. It was made of sand that had been hardened.

I wanted to create a stove that works like in modern times but when I presented my idea to my father, he told me not to make it as long as I have no backing.

It made me feel weird as his words indicated that he had experience in politics but I simply discarded it.

"He may have heard it from some adventures or some nobles during the quest..."

That was my thoughts.

I picked the pot and placed it on the stove and went toward the almirah where the containers containing the daily necessities were placed and opening it, I took the container with the rice out.

Opening the cork, I took enough rice for three people out in a different bowl. Placing the container back, I walked toward the window.

Reaching there, I placed the pot on the wooden slab that was attached to the window and hovered my right hand over the top of the bowl.

"[Water Ball]"

Saying the incantation, Mana started to move in my body, and as I imagined a small bubble of water, it formed over my hand and fell on the rice.

I started to clean the rice using the water that I just created and after done cleaning, I poured the rice water on the grass which glistened as sunlight poured over it.

I walked back inside and placed the rice to cook on the pot, and walked toward the table with vegetables and knife already arranged by me, and started to cut them.

"Reo!"

Huh? Someone is calling me?

"Reo, are you there?"

Wait, it's Uncle Bob's voice from the neighborhood.

I quickly placed the knife on the table ran toward the door. Father and Mother had always told me to lock the door and it was also a habit of mine from my past life as I stayed alone for most of the time.

Opening the door, I saw a middle-aged man standing in my front with a frown on his face. He was wearing long simple white robe-like clothing.

It was Uncle Bob that lived a little away from my house as Father and Mother had this house made in the outskirts of the village.

'But why is he frowning like that?'

With that thought, I asked,

"What happened, Uncle Bob?"

A complicated look formed on Uncle Bob's face with pity in it.

What happened?

That look was giving me weird but bad vibes...

"Could we talk inside?"

Uncle Bob asked after thinking for what seemed like a minute. I nodded and bought him into the house, and made him sit in the sofas in the living room.

I sat in front of Uncle Bob while he gazed at me with the same complicated look.

"What happened, Uncle Bob?"

I asked again, the ominous feeling continued to rise in my heart more and more.

This whole scene became more and more familiar in my mind.

"Reo, please stay calm when I am going to explain."

Uncle Bob instructed me to stay calm...but how could I stay calm?!

But I still nodded my head in acceptance. I want to know...

"You see...."

Uncle Bob started speaking with an expression of grief forming on his face. y heart tightened seeing that expression.

"Your Father and Mother died...."

Uncle Bob had slight tears gathering in the corner of his eyes as he paused for a moment.

My whole body started trembling, with a look of disbelieve forming over my face.

"Your Father and Mother died...they were killed by a demonic beast..."

The words were like a loud drum that beat my heart, It felt like my heart would get out of my body.

My breathing stagnated. I wasn't able to believe what he spoke.

HAHAHA

'How could my parents die?!'

'They are the strongest people of the village!'

'Who could fcking kill them?!'

The mana in my body started to run amok, and I instinctively used the [Strengthening Magic], increasing my physical strength.

The raw magic power of deep blue color coated my right hand as I slammed it on the table in front of me.

*Bam!*

With a loud noise, the whole table blasted apart.

Anger covered my whole mind.

"My Parents' life is not something you could fcking joke about!!"

I screamed loudly, scaring the wits out of Uncle Bob.

I don't know how was I looking now.

I don't even fcking care!

He just said that My PARENTS died!

Uncle Bob's body started to tremble but his face stayed firm as he looked toward me.

"No...Reo, I am sorry to hear that, but it is the truth. I am sad and ag....."

I vanished from my position and appeared beside Uncle Bob, he was sited on the sofa and I stood beside him and grabbed him by his throat.

I looked into his eyes, which still hadn't shown fear, only grief and pity.

I don't need pity!

How dare he say that my parents died...

Why would they die? They still have me...they needed to see me growing up...

"DON'T TALK ABOUT THEM! THEY ARE ALIVE!"

I screamed and my scream was so loud that it reached out of my house, but I don't give a fck about that.

Uncle Bob placed his hand on my hand that was tightening around his neck and easily released them.

He lifted me by my hand threw me on the sofa.

But how?! He was just a normal woodchopper!

"Reo, I am saddened by their death too. I lost my dear friend who was like a brother and also a caring sister-in-law, but don't attack me like that. You need to accept it."

He spoke with more tears in his eyes.

Am I a fool?

Why am I attacking someone...

How could I forget that Uncle Bob had the best relationship with the father...

Tears started to gather in my eyes, all of the types of magics that I used got removed.

"A...Are you t...telling the truth?"

I asked while sobbing. I wanted to hear the lie for the answer...

"No..."

Uncle Bob whispered.

I felt my whole world breaking apart.

WHY?!

Just when I finally obtained happiness!!

My body dropped to the ground but I don't care.

My Parents died...again in this life too.

My face lay on the ground, my whole body screamed in pain from the over usage of [Strengthening Magic] that my body could handle.

But only tears of pain that I felt in my heart left my eyes.

"Why...!!!"

I screamed last time before my eyes backed out, and I lost my consciousness.
