Rebirth of a lost soul

Today was a great day. Hanz felt like he was particularly lucky today. First of all, new episodes of his favourite anime came out this morning. Then when he taught he would be late for work, his boss ask him if he could call in in the evening instead. Which means he had time to read that novel he always had to put aside.

If it was just that, it might just be a coincidence. But guess what, it just get better. At work, some colleagues was distributing cookies for some reasons and he managed to get his favourite flavour, and not one or two but four of them.

As expected, today was a great a day. It was late when he left work a he managed to get a cab at his first try. Now that's luck for you.

He decided to look for a good mahnwa to read to pass the time. Today was a great day.

Or was it?

Hanz suddenly felt something was off. It was dark. He wasn't in the back of a cab anymore.

Hanz looked around and was surprised. This is not Earth. Or is it? He couldn't see anything beyond the darkness."Maybe I was kidnapped by aliens and they brought me here?"

His thoughts started getting ridiculous. He didn't know where he was. And now that he thinks about it , he couldn't feel his body or feel anything. How strange. He was just .....there.

How long has it been ? Hundreds of years? Or maybe just a few seconds have passed and it's just him. And then Hanz saw something. Finally he saw something. After all, it's been a long time.

"Hanz C. Barret, 28years, soul #63728_81." A voice echoed from the mystique figure that appeared, "You've been dead for over two hundred years. You must have questions. Let me explain. You are not supposed to be here. Your soul lost his way and couldn't perform the normal cycle of reincarnation. "

"What are you talking about? What happened to me ? And who are you?" Hanz was in a panic. He started feeling things again, but in this situation he didn't know if it was a good thing.

But the being couldn't care less. The death and the loss of the soul in front of him was the result of the carelessness of one of his subordinate. And only now did that idiot see fit to tell him about it.

"I will revive you. In order to do so i need to take the essence of your spirit and insert it in a vessel."

Hanz nodded, and the figure continued. " Of course you will be compensated whether it is for your accidental death or the loss of your soul"

Accidental? Hanz seemed to understand something. 'So it is all thier fault!! And did he talk about compensation?'. He started to think. Everything started to make sense. He had the higher ground. His otaku spirit that even his time in the darkness couldn't kill started to wake up.

"So, what would you give me to compensate my accident? You can't put a value on human life."

The figure started to frown. He didn't have much experience in the realm of life. The only reason why he took this case is because the subordinate was too scared to deal with it and he knew he would get scolded by his boss if he ignored the problem.

"Name it."

"Hmm..." Hanz started to think. " I want money. Lots and lots of money. So much that i can buy everything i ever wanted.

The figure nodded, "Done."

"And i want a system."

"..."

"A lust system who will help and assist me with everything. And from which I could get anything."

"..."

" And I'm gay so make sure the system take that into account while issuing quest."

"..."

"..."

".. a lust system will be possible. You can use it to increase your power. The higher your level, the more power and knowledge you can draw from it. Now, is there anything else?"

"At what age would I be reincarnated ? In which world ? Can I choose how I would look like ?"

"In a fantasy world where magic is as common as water. As for your age, 17 or 18, depending on the world's time frame. Your appearance can be modified as well."

"If it's a fantasy world that means there would be no technologie, right? I don't want to go there. "

A vein started to pulse on the being forehead. Since when was dealing with a human soul so troublesome? And what is wrong with this one? Didn't everyone of his race dream of wielding strong and mysterious power? Is his knowledge of humans that limited? Why is he even doing this? He is not the one responsible for this. He is just following his boss orders. But compensation is still due. ' I guess he survived that long in the darkness cause he was already crazy.'

"How about a world that mix technologie with magic ?"

"I guess it would be good enough. So, what about my appearance ? And my family in that world?"

'Don't people usually want to be orphans?'The figure decided to stop caring about whatever the soul decided to say. It's not like he asked for anything crazy like being a god in that world so whatever.

"You will be born with a mother and father. But if you really want it, I can arrange to have the parents be killed in an accident a few years after your birth."

"..." Hanz frowned.

"It will be for the best. Trust me."

"No, that's not what i wanted. Just put a lot of money in my family bank account."

"That I can do."

" And for my appearance?"

Hanz didn't forget the most important. Even if he will have a lot of money, it doesn't seem right to depend on it to have a harem. He have to make sure he will get the necessary face and body to attract a lot of men in his bed( or get in others bed huhuhu).

The figure looked at Hanz. This will probably be the last thing he would ever do for him. So he made sure he will do it properly.

"So what will be your name in your new world ?"

"Hanz Barret."

"No, you have to have a different name in the other world."

"Oh... I don't know, you decide it. It's not like the name is that important anyway. Just make sure it's cool and easy to remember."

"Your name will be Curtis May. Now, let's begin the procedure. I will take you to the reincarnation chamber."

"Wait. What about my appearance?"

The figure sighed. This guy will not shut up. He is glad this is his last interaction with a human.

"What did you have in mind?"

"Well, I want a handsome face. And a perfect body. And i want to have big eyes. And i want to be tall. And i want..."

"STOP" The being stopped the flow of words, it was just to much. And too vague. He brings up something that look like a tablet and passes it to the soul.

" It will help you choose and see what you will look like. Do what you will "

Hanz was ecstatic. He started working on his masterpiece.

A few hours later, Hanz was finally satisfied.

"Okay, i think it's good. What do you think?"

"..."

"Hello ?"

"I am not the one who will judge your appearance. You are. I'm just an escort. Come with me"

They walked and entered a large room. The walls were decorated with complex runes. In the middle was a giant stone table.

"Place yourself on the table."

Hanz obeyed and the being started to chant. A magic circle appeared around Hanz. He didn't have much time to marvel at the spectacle. A bright light blinded him and he started to feel his body again.

Then everything went black.
