Vol. 01 Ch. 01 - Is this a prologue? (MC’s POV)
No Name: "I remember that I died, I remember my house, I remember the name of my pet cat, but I don't remember anything about me. @ # $%! @ # $%"
After a while, I began to calm myself, and examine how my body was and the current situation
No Name: "My body...? It doesn't have a physical body, but I have consciousness."
No Name: "Where am I...? The lobby...?"
Like the lobby in general, this place is equipped with various sets of tables and a LOT of chairs. But what else should I say, I've never seen this much chair in one room? And in the waiting chairs, there is a ball of light sitting neatly waiting for something. I think they are the same as me, the soul of someone who has died. Had I just died? If so then maybe I will wait a long time for my turn to be called. When someone dies they will meet the angels. Or in the void meeting God if it matches the story of a novel that I have read.
No Name: "Hi, can anyone answer my question?"
I shouted trying to attract the attention of anyone I could talk to, but there was no response. Even the ball of light next to me also didn't show the slightest change. I kept shouting, still trying, but suddenly out of nowhere, a woman's voice made a call that stopped my screaming.
???: "Queue number 51,212 please head to the door."
No Name: "Who is that?!"
???: ...
No Name: "Queue number...? 51 thousand...?"
And who knows where and since when I got a queue number, but I know that my queue number will be long for my queue number to get a call. With conditions like this, I can only follow the existing paths, hopefully, someone can answer my question there. While waiting for my turn, I tried to remember my life. I can't remember anything about me, about my daily life, about my family and even my name, is lost from my memory. But somehow I can remember all the knowledge I received from elementary school through college. This means that during my life I have finished all the existing education and get a master's degree in physics, design and appropriate technology. I finished repeating all of my memories of the education I received, but my queue number was still not called.
After repeating all the education I received, the next thing I remember the most was about anime, manga, and novels. It seems like during my life I could be called an otaku or a big fan of Japanese anime.
No Name: *sigh* "Unfortunately I can't see the ending of some of the anime, manga, and novels that I read."
I go back to checking the memories that I have about anime, after all, I also had nothing else to do besides that. I repeat all the episodes and chapters I have watched. I don't know when I was alive, but now I seem to be a big fan of Bleach, One Piece, Naruto.
No Name: *sigh* "I'm very curious about the end of the story? Is there no reading material in this lobby?"
???: "Queue number 105,487 please head to the door."
No Name: "It's finally my turn."
My attention returned to the condition that I experienced this time. Even though I don't have legs, but when I want to move towards the entrance, I don't realize I'm in front of a door.
No Name: "Yosh, whoever it is? Gods, angels, demons, administrators, ROBs. I'm coming."
The door opened by itself, and dazzling light came out of the room. And without me realizing, I was now sitting in a chair facing a large table with lots of piles of paper. Apart from that, I didn't see anything or anyone else in this room. Once again my condition returned to the beginning, alone and did not know what to do. I looked left and right, thinking about how to change my condition this time.
No Name: "Since when have I been able to teleport? I've been feeling like I've suddenly moved places."
???: "Soul number 105.487?"
No Name: ...
Suddenly there was a voice again even though I didn't see anyone or I really couldn't see it, this time it sounded like a middle-aged man. And in a slightly loud tone, the voice came again.
???: "Answer me! Don't you have consciousness?"
No Name: "Are you talking to me?"
???: "This is why I am most lazy to face a soul that does not remember about itself." *Sigh* "Yes, I talk to you."
No Name: "So you know that I don't remember anything about myself. Can you please tell me who I am? And who are you?"
???: "That is not the important thing. And the matter of who you are, it is also not important because you chose to forget it yourself. And I still have more than 50 thousand souls that I have to handle today.
No Name: ...
The room returned silently without a sound, but this time the paper on the table began to move. After several papers had flown by themselves, finally the only red paper appeared and floated on the table and then I heard him speak again.
???: "Soul number 105.487, get a reincarnation ticket this time. Tickets that can be used once in a million eons to be born in any world except the last world the soul is in. Because there are some unexpected things, this reincarnation ticket can only be obtained after winning the tournament. And because you are here, you won it."
No Name: "Huh...?"
???: "But because they have to hold a tournament, the benefits from the reincarnation ticket which originally numbered five became only two. Do you understand up to here?"
No Name: "Huh...?"
???: "HEY !!!"
No Name: "Yes, even though I forgot about myself but I understand about the reincarnation ticket from your explanation."
???"That's all I need to know, and now simply select two of the five abilities that should exist in reincarnation ticket."
Suddenly there is a whiteboard on my right side, and on it written a list of benefits that I can choose.
# TALENT: [Maximizing the ability to be able to understand and master something. ]
# LUCK: [Getting something hard to get, the common name in the anime is called "plot armor"]
# SYSTEM: [Elements that accompany to help in living life easier. ]
# CHOOSE THE WORLD: [Choose the world you want to go to]
# BACKGROUND: [About you]
???: "Now choose the two benefits that you want."
No Name: ...
