I was reincarnated as 'Kenja no mago'.

My name is Alberto, but many friends call me 'The cut bridge', you may wonder why I have that nickname, well I would like to know, I just know that from one day to another they started calling me that way, they just told me that it had to do with my years of bachelorhood.

I am 21 years old and at this moment I am running while being chased by the owner of an adult video store, I should mention that in this business you can find everything, even animes that have the weirdest fetishes you can imagine.

The reason for this, is that without me realizing it, I happened to keep a video without paying for it. But in my defense, I would like to say that this is society's fault, I'm almost 22 years old and still no girl has wanted to date me, it's not like I blame them either, since my appearance is very normal.

So at this time, where situations are desperate, extreme measures have to be taken, so I decided to go to this entertainment video store. As a great sage once said:

"In times of war, any hole is a trench."

But back to the matter, when I was making my difficult decision for which video to take, I happened to buy 2, not realizing that I had taken a third video.

At the moment I left the store, a very loud alarm sounded, the owner of the store looked at me with a very angry face and ran to where I was, I don't know why I had the great idea to run, maybe it was because I was very nervous not wanting any acquaintance to see me leaving that place and my body reacted by itself.

I must say something great, since I am not a person who exercises or goes for a run, but I am impressed that at times like this, I ran almost 3 blocks without getting tired.

"Stop right there thief" Shouted the store manager.

When I heard his voice, I decided to take a look to see if he was close to me, to increase my speed a little if necessary. But the moment I turn my head back, I see the face of the store manager and the people around him start to change.

I felt everything slow down for a few seconds, and from one moment to the next I hear the sound of something rapidly approaching me.

The moment I turn my head, I see a big truck a few meters away from me with a high speed, and from one moment to another that vehicle runs over me. The last thing I could see, was an advertisement for the live-action of "death note" while listening to the screams of the people, the only thing I could think to do before dying was to whisper:

"live-action bullshit".

......

When I regained consciousness, I couldn't feel my body and I couldn't see either, or so I think, since everything was black.

"did I open up blind or is everything really dark, besides, hadn't I died?"

As I was looking at my situation, and after analyzing it, I realized that I was a small ball of light, or I don't know what it was, that was floating in the nothingness, literally. But from one moment to the next, I felt something sucking me in and I appeared in a place with a lot of light, my first reaction was to try to cover my eyes.

I felt really stupid when I did it, since I had no arms, no legs and no eyes either.

"Maybe when one dies one becomes more stupid?" I thought.

While I was lost in my thoughts and existential questions, I don't know why I heard a voice, being that I didn't even have ears:

Rob: "Hahaha Hi little guy."

MC: "Who are you? And how can I hear you if I don't even have ears?"

Rob: "I have many names, but if you want you can call me God."

When I heard that, I was silent for a while, since I was still in a trance. I had read some fanfic and typical isekai anime stories, but I never thought it was real.

MC: "Are you Santa Claus?"

Rob: "No, I'm God!"

After pondering his answer for a bit, I decided to try it out.

Me: "If you really are God, you can mold my body, I mean I feel weird without my body, so we can have a better conversation."

Although I don't mind looking like a white Billiard ball, I feel uncomfortable, it may sound stupid, but it's the truth, so I wanted to go back to my body.

Rob: "No problem."

From one moment to another, I could see again, I analyzed my body and saw that everything was in its place, so I couldn't help but sigh of tranquility, after that, I saw a blurry figure, I could only distinguish that it had a snow white robe.

MC: "Thank you very much for helping me, besides that, where am I?"

Rob: "You are in a place that is neither heaven nor hell, your situation is strange, since you don't meet any of the conditions to go to any of those realms."

MC: "Why wouldn't I go to heaven if I never did anything that bad, I was just a normal 21 year old college student?"

Rob: "Hahahaha seriously you would want to go to heaven after going around stealing adult movies and videos from a poor store clerk, but that's not the worst of it, but your biggest sin is the subject of the video you were buying, how can you be so weird to buy adult videos with girls that have dwarfism, are you ok, you're a sick man with no cure."

Rob: "If it was any other subject maybe there would be a better chance I could take you to some kingdom, but not even in hell do they want someone with such bad tastes and weird fetishes."

MC: "this was a misunderstanding, in that store it was the only thing left and I was really desperate".

MC: "Besides if you think about it, it's almost the same as the Lolis that are in anime, but these are from real life..."

I replied with tears in my eyes, I never thought my sin would be so big.

Rob: "Hahahahahahahaha ,that's the funniest thing I've heard in thousands of years, but you can't do much, but I must admit that you have amused me a lot, so, since I can't take you to any of those worlds, I will reincarnate you in another world."

When I heard that I might have a chance to reincarnate in a new world I got excited, so there was quickly a smile of excitement on my face.

MC: "Would you really help me with that?"

Rob: "Of course, plus I'm bored and feel a little sorry for you, so do you have any ideas or worlds you'd like to reincarnate?"

MC: "I'd like a world of magic or where you can have some powers, that isn't as dangerous as Naruto or other similar anime, since I wouldn't like to lose my family members due to politics or corruption, etc.."

MC: "Also, I would like to have some pretty girls, to have girlfriends, since I would still like to fulfill my dream of my past life."

Rob: "Interesting, well I already have some idea where to send you, now regarding your memory, I'll let you have it and about your appearance, I'll be merciful and give you Susabi's appearance."

Me: "Who is he?"

Rob: "He's a game character from your world, I'm surprised you don't know him."

MC: "I'm a normal guy, maybe I watch a little anime and read some light novels or fanfics, but nothing else, I'm not an otaku or anything like that."

Rob: "Of course you're not otaku, you're something worse, dwarf fetishist."

When I heard him call me that, I felt there was a void inside me, I lost all my dignity in front of this so-called God. So I simply decided to put my attention on the image of the character Rob was showing me.

I must say that I was very satisfied about the body I will have when I reincarnate, it's not bad at all, speaking as un-gay as possible.

MC: "I like my new body."

Rob: "Now, we just have to pick you a new name."

Seeing that I had to have a new name, I started thinking of a whole bunch that I liked and that sounded cool.

MC: "How about Raphael, or Axel....?"

From one moment to the next, I started naming a lot of names that I had come up with that I liked, since now that I have the opportunity to remake my whole life again, I won't waste it.

Rob: "Stop, stop, stop.... I wonder if you've actually watched anime or something, you must know that usually, characters that are reincarnated have Japanese names, so this is no exception, you must come up with a Japanese name and it must be short, since the beautiful author can't think of any and doesn't know Japanese."

MC:" But I don't know Japanese either."

Rob: "Well it's not my problem...."

I kept thinking for a while, trying to come up with a suitable name in a language I don't even know, but hey, it could be worse.... Seriously, I wouldn't want to be like a certain character who goes back in time every time he dies....

Rob: "How about being called Ren or Ryu?"

MC: "Do they have any significance?" ,You can't help but ask, since a lot of the names of these countries have some deep meaning or something.

Rob: "Not really, but it sounds cool and easy for the author-sama to remember."

Seeing that they weren't too bad, I decided to keep one, since, not knowing Japanese, it would be a show trying to find other names.

MC:" Okay, I'll keep Ryu's name."

Rob: "Alright, now I will send you to the new world and give you some gifts, for giving me a fun time, which you can see when you wake up again, I hope you enjoy your new life."

MC: "Goodbye, thank you for everything."

After saying goodbye with a smile to the supposed God, I felt like fainting again, I won't lie to say I was excited and happy to think about my future.
