The previous sudden pain that struck his head, made him grit his teeth to endure the sudden pain. He couldn't handle the dizziness and then fell to the ground before he was unconscious.

"Huh? Am I reincarnated?"

As the youngster woke up in his room, he looked at his left and right confusingly. It wasn't that long before he realized that he reincarnated into a popular manga character.

His skin is white, slightly long black hair for a normal average boy, and both of his ears have pierced marks.

Originally, he was just an average office worker in a certain company. but because his original body was too weak, he couldn't just work tirelessly. Unfortunately though, because he had got additional work from the main office or headquarters, it made him work overtime, and died because his body couldn't handle it.

He still looked like 14 or 15 years old. If he remembered correctly, he should be reincarnated into Miyamura Izumi, a popular manga character.

As to how and why he ended up reincarnated into Miyamura Izumi, he had no idea.

"Izumi, what happened?" his mother, Iori, checked inside Izumi's room after she heard the noise. She looked at his son, who almost fainted on the floor.

"Are you alright Izumi? If you don't feel well, you should skip school today. Tomorrow will be your graduation, so you can rest for a whole day." Iori said with concern.

"It's okay mom, I just feel dizzy somehow, I'm alright now." Izumi replied as he felt the bunch of memories slapping inside his head. Those were the memories from his past life. In other words, those were memories before he reincarnated into Miyamura Izumi.

"Is this still my body? Somehow I just regained my previous life memories just now. If I become the main character in a certain manga, does that mean I can flip, ah no, can I make a difference from what Miyamura Izumi did in the original story?" Izumi said in his mind.

"Alright, you should rest, I'll tell the teacher that you're absent today." Iori said while she let Izumi lay down on his bed.

"Alright." Izumi replied shortly.

After seeing his mother go out of his room, he got up out of his bed while murmuring.

"It's so fortunate of me I reincarnated in the modern world, not in the supernatural modern world or superpower world." What he didn't know was that his words were like raising a flag.

And then Izumi looked at his phone, which is still the 2010 model. He browsed from his phone to look at recent news or worldly affairs. He was shocked that it seems this world is an alternate world with different anime mixed up together. He was sure about that because there seemed to be the Tootsuki school or Shiratorizawa volleyball, and there might be even more which he hadn't found out yet.

But the weird thing was, the football here looked like in his previous life, where Real Madrid and Barcelona dominated Spain and Europe, the duo Manchesters dominated the Premier League, etc.

"I feel like I'm still living in my previous life with the addition of the anime characters. This looks fun. Maybe, I should live my life to the fullest since I'm reincarnated. I don't want to regret it and end up being a worthless employee in a certain company who can only listen to an unreasonable boss." Izumi thought inwardly.

He was glad that he got reincarnated and had one more chance to be a successful person. But still, when he looked at his body, he scratched his head in annoyance.

"My body is too skinny. I need to increase my weight. Fortunately, my appearance seems good-looking. It makes me have more confidence dealing with other people, especially a girl."

Despite having a handsome face, his height and weight are only 169 cm and 48 kg. His handsomeness got slightly ruined by how skinny he was.

And another problem is, that he is a lone wolf in this life. If he remembered correctly, he only had 1 friend named Shindou Kouichi, a stupid guy who had already repeated classes twice, but he was quite a funny guy.

Izumi heard someone's steps, so he immediately get back to his bed.

*Clack*

The door of his room opened while his mother entered inside with the breakfast she brought.

"Izumi, here is the breakfast, and get well soon!" Iori said.

"Okay, even though I'm alright now." Izumi replied.

"Don't be like that, just rest today! Look at how skinny your body is. You should eat more!" Iori said with a teasing tone.

"I've been like this since long ago," said Izumi in annoyance.

"Alright, alright. I feel like you are different today. you are not as gloomy as before" Iori said with a smile after looking annoyed at Izumi.

Izumi twitched for a moment. He was shocked but he tried to not show it on his face and then said.

"Is that so? Maybe, you felt something was wrong with me. But, I didn't feel that I'm different though." He could only reply with a smile. His eyes also gaze at his mother's eyes. And his mother felt Izumi didn't lie.

Iori just smiled and said.

"Alright, just call me if you need something!" Then she went out of the room.

Izumi sighed. With his previous life experience, he was used to lying to other people and could fool others easily with his gaze.

"I want my high school life won't be as bad as my previous life. In my previous life, bullying and school gangs were common. To be honest, I hated my school life at that time. People took advantage of the thing called "friend", and when "friend" had no value, they kicked it."

For a moment, Izumi thought it was better to build a community by himself. Since he loves anime, manga, or novels, he might want to invite other people with the same hobby into his circle.

In his previous life, he wasn't Japanese. But now, he is reincarnated into Japanese. He didn't know why some Japanese didn't like the thing called "Otaku". Gross? Weird? Well, Izumi didn't really care about that. People who despise other people's hobbies were just kids. "Well, who the **** cares about that. There are a lot of people who like anime anyway."

Time goes by as the day of the high school opening ceremony begins.

Miyamura Izumi was accepted into Katagiri High School with a slightly above-average score. Well, it's just the same as his past life in high school, as most of the time, his score was just so-so.

"Mother, I'm going." Izumi said while putting on his shoes, then went out to the school.

"Be careful!" said Iori.

Izumi walked slowly on his way toward the school. His house wasn't too far from the school, so she wasn't in a rush.

On his way, he saw several people who had colorful hair. If he thought about it, their hair color was very identical to the characters in the anime. Well, he didn't realize before gained his past life memories. He was already getting used to it now.

His appearance looked like a geeky guy with almost shoulder-length straight hair and glasses.

It might be interesting when he looked geeky at school and badass outside the school. If he really followed the story, he should get Hori Kyouko's heart.

After some time, finally, the opening ceremony begins.

Izumi looked at the podium with the Principal blabbering something that made him feel drowsy. After that, he looked at the first-year representative that he had already expected, which was Hori Kyouko. Even though her body is so so, she was still beautiful if Izumi needed to be honest. Somehow, even his heart was beating a little bit faster after looking at her.

But. Something interrupted.

*bzzzt* *bzzzt*

His phone suddenly vibrated.

Felt his phone vibrated, Izumi immediately took out his phone from his pocket.

He was dumbfounded for a moment when he saw the magical thing that happened to his phone. His previous phone with a 2010 android model suddenly transformed into a high-end phone similar to iPhone, more or less, the futuristic phone after 2022. It also had a different brand that he had never known before.

His phone screen turned to blank white for a while. There was also a black horizontal line that looked like it was scanning something, which was then followed by a loading bar at the bottom of the screen.

After the loading reached 100%, there was something installed, then his phone screen booted and got normal once again. He swiped the screen to unlock it, then he could see something different from his previous phone.

At the corner of his phone's notification, there was an unusual icon that made his finger couldn't help but tap that icon.

*Complete mode on!*

He tapped once more.

*Partial mode on!*

Now, he understood a little bit. The complete mode was something similar to any applications or operating systems inside the phone in his previous life. While the partial mode was similar to his current life when the technology wasn't as advanced as in his previous life.

He tested the complete mode once again and he was sure. The internet was connected to his previous life internet network. He couldn't believe it. He wondered if he wasn't reincarnated but dreaming instead.

"This is fucking weird. Did I reincarnate into a magical world? But, Miyamura Izumi should be in a romcom with the normal world, right?" Izumi was too confused. It was too unscientific. But then, he thought about a reincarnation that was also unscientific. So, he tried to calm down.

He checked all of his applications on the phone, and there was a new application that was similar to Discord when he looked at the icon.

Out of curiosity, Izumi opened the application, and not long after, several letters began to appear on the screen and string words together.

[initializing The Dimensional Chat Group, Bind to the host, the phone can automatically return to the host's hand with just a thought. The phone cannot be destroyed]

[The Dimensional Chat Group is empty, automatically creating a new server, and automatically invites 4 people, First-time reward to all members who joined will be sent to the inbox]

Izumi was stunned. He was speechless. It was a system with artificial intelligence. Even though the system couldn't speak, just putting the words together was already amazing.

"Is it a golden finger just like the thing in novels? Or is this just an ordinary chat group but more magical?" Izumi thought for a while and checked the app.

When he saw his nickname in the app, he twitched. He immediately renamed it, Miyamura Izumi. Fortunately, the member was still just himself, so no one would know his childhood nickname.

At that moment.

[Queen of Nightmare joined the chat]

[Copy Ninja joined the chat]

[HikiNEET joined the chat]

[The Most Genius Villainess Scientist joined the chat]

"Oh, a sudden mission after the chat group got new members? And from the description, Fiore and Magnolia should be from Fairy Tail. Can I go to that world too? But, first of all, we need to know each other first." Izumi murmured while looking at the others who just joined after him. He tapped the chat box and typed.

Izumi: Well, well, how do you do? And nice to meet you, everyone! Welcome to my world.

Izumi couldn't help but type that sentence in the chat. It felt like he was the one who was forcefully dragged… err, invited them to the chat group with an unusual means.

When Izumi saw the notification where the system invited 4 people with weird nicknames. He wanted to test whether those people were using their real aliases or just nicknames since he somehow found familiarity with two out of four nicknames.

Queen of Nightmare: Who are you? How did my phone suddenly transform? Was this your doing?

Miyamura Izumi: Hehe, what do you think? Somehow, your nickname kinda reminds me of the past. A chuunibyou, isn't it?

Queen of Nightmare: Thou dare to disrespect this queen. Say, who are you? Or else, I will curse you with the nightmare that descends from heaven!

The Most Genius Villainess Scientist: Hello hello, everyone idol, Tabane-chan make an appearance, how did you give me this high-end phone? I'm certain there's no phone like this in the world. Or maybe you are from another world? Hehe, even though that's impossible.

HikiNEET: Hey, are you Aqua's friend? But, I doubt Aqua has a friend since she's too annoying. How did you give me a smartphone? Moreover, looking at this model, there's no way the Earth advanced so quickly in technology when I just died, right?

Looking at their chats, Izumi was certain that they are from another universe, or maybe parallel worlds. He wasn't sure who the Queen of Nightmare was. However, HikiNEET is an alias that belongs to none other than Satou Kazuma. And what made Izumi so sure was because Kazuma referred to "Aqua" as a person, and "just died" which meant he somehow reincarnated like Izumi.

Meanwhile, The Most Genius Villainess Scientist was called Tabane-chan. And from those words alone, Izumi could guess that person was a woman. Since the mission mentioned something in Fairy Tail, and there were also Kazuma and him, he assumed that the other members were also anime characters, but in real life. If he minimized the possibility, who was Tabane, and who was worthy to get that alias? Izumi had a strong candidate. He just wasn't sure.

Queen of Nightmare: @HikiNEET Wait wait, you just died? And did you say Aqua? Are you perhaps Satou Kazuma? Because you thought a tractor was a truck and then you pushed a girl, you died from a shock and heart attack?

HikiNEET: Oi oi!!! How did you know I died so embarrassingly? You're a goddess, right? If not, how do you know how I died?

"Oh, if this person somehow knew Satou Kazuma, this person is certainly an Otaku. But whether this person is a character from an anime, manga, or novel, or maybe neither of those, I don't know." Izumi murmured.

Queen of Nightmare: Whoa, are you for real? Wait, let me make sure.

Izumi: You don't need to make sure. I'm also certain that he is Satou Kazuma, for real. I don't know you though, Queen of Nightmare. And then, @The Most Genius Villainess Scientist should be the creator of the Infinite Stratos, right? I couldn't think of another person other than you.

Izumi somehow knew them since he found familiarity with their aliases. Of course, the familiarity he felt was their aliases from Anime.

Queen of Nightmare: Wait a moment. You transformed my phone and invited me to this group despite not knowing who I am? You must be lying! And also @Izumi, did you just say The Most Genius Villainess Scientist was the IS creator? That Shinonono Tabane?

The Most Genius Villainess Scientist: Eh, how did you two know about me?

Izumi: It's up to you whether you believe me or not. But, my phone also suddenly changed, y'know! Then, when I was just curious about the new interface and apps on my phone, I couldn't help but check one by one. But when I opened this chat group, this phone magically binds with me just like when you bind your game to your email. Then, the system suddenly invited 4 of you by itself.

Queen of Nightmare: Eh, although the process was slightly different, the binding thingy was the truth. This phone binds with me after my phone transforms. I tried dropping my phone, and just as I thought my phone should be back in my hands, it did.

The Most Genius Villainess Scientist: Weird, I never use a phone since it can detect my position. So, I usually use my custom communication device. And just a moment ago, a phone suddenly appeared out of thin air. Other than that, this phone is way too sophisticated than any phone I've seen before. Also, what did you mean that HikiNEET had died? Isn't he still chatting normally?

Queen of Nightmare: Well, it sounds unbelievable, but you're a certain character from an anime. I'm from Japan, but you're also from Japan. However, what I'm certain of is that you're from a different Japan. In other words, something like parallel worlds.

Izumi: Satou Kazuma should be from modern Japan too. But he died and was reincarnated by the annoying goddess in the fantasy world. By the way, since Satou Kazuma and Shinonono Tabane are characters from the anime, @Copy Ninja should be a character in anime, right? And the Copy Ninja should be none other than Hatake Kakashi. @Queen of Nightmare, then how about you?

Queen of Nightmare: How about you say who you are first?

Izumi: Fine. My name is Miyamura Izumi. Your turn!

Queen of Nightmare: Miyamura Izumi? Wait, send me your photo with a weird pose! And send it here immediately! You're the most suspicious here. So, I won't believe you.

Then, in a few seconds, Izumi sent a photo while moving his mouth at a strange angle.

Queen of Nightmare: Seriously? You're the real-life Miyamura Izumi? I'm shocked.

The Most Genius Villainess Scientist: Did you know him? @Queen of Nightmare.

Queen of Nightmare: Based on his appearance, he should be the main character from a rom-com manga. But, to think the anime character becomes a real-life person was so unbelievable.

Izumi: Well, if four of us are characters from anime, you should be one too. Tell me who you are!

Queen of Nightmare: Gokou Ruri. That's my name.

Izumi thought for a while. Then he remembered something.

Izumi: Is there a little girl named Kirino from your circle?

Queen of Nightmare: Eh, you know her? Wait a moment, don't tell me, am I also an anime character?

Izumi: So, it's you, huh, Kuroneko? If you're not an anime character, how would I know right away?

Queen of Nightmare: Okay then, for now, I believe you.

Izumi: You should believe in me forever!

Queen of Nightmare: Believing in you is polytheistic.

Izumi: Your words hurt me a lot.

HikiNEET: Hold on! Did you just say all of us were anime characters?

Izumi: Well, you could say so. There's nothing weird, right? Especially you, who just got reincarnated.

HikiNEET: Then, then… If I'm an anime character, what character am I?

Queen of Nightmare: You're the main character.

HikiNEET: Eh, seriously? Will I become a hero that defeats a Demon King in the future?

Izumi: I'm not sure. You're certainly a main character… But…

Queen of Nightmare: The unluckiest main character, that's you @HikiNEET.

HikiNEET: What the ****.

The Most Genius Villainess Scientist: Hmmm, since you're not from a world government, then I don't need to worry about this phone. Moreover, there's something special with this phone. Well, how to say it I wonder.

Queen of Nightmare: It's quite magical. I don't know if the notification on this phone was true or not. But, it said that we got a tutorial mission that mentioned Fiore and Magnolia. That means, we need two people who are likely to be sent to another world.

The Most Genius Villainess Scientist: So, the mission is going to another world?

Izumi: Yup, the Fairy Tail world which is the world of magic.

Those four were immersed in the chat. It was just one person who was still yet to appear, Hatake Kakashi. Considered Hatake Kakashi was from the Shinobi world with undeveloped technology. He might still need time to appear in the chat.

Knowing each of them were all anime characters, they became more open in their talk. Starting from when Kazuma had died, what grade Tabane's little sister was, and Kuroneko's current grade. Izumi wanted to know because he needed to calculate the time from each of their worlds.

Kazuma said that it was just a day after he got reincarnated. Tabane's sister was still 3 months away from entering high school. Kuroneko was just like him, a new high school student. Even both of them attended the opening ceremony at the same time.

After introducing each other, Izumi told them that their current phones were quite useful to them. So, he taught them how to use the phone, including explaining internet applications and networks that were no different from the internet in his previous life. Manga, anime, or novels were available and could be found with just a tap in the browser app.

And with that, each of them found their own story or future from each of their original anime and novels. Though, Kazuma seemed to have no time to read his own story from the novel since he needed to work after being thrown into the fantasy world. With no money, he couldn't help but have to work to survive.

Without knowing it, the opening ceremony ended. Izumi walked from the hall to his class. Arriving in the class, he looked around, trying to know if there was someone he knew. But then he realized.

"I have no friends." He murmured.

But even though he had no friends, at least he knew some people he was familiar with. There were Hori Kyouko and her friend, Yoshikawa Yuki. When he glanced in another direction, he also saw Ishikawa Tooru and Iura Syu. There were also 2 people that he was somewhat familiar. But he forgot who they were.

A homeroom teacher came to Izumi's class and introduced himself. After him, it's the students' turn. Then they start to introduce themself. Some of them even introduce themselves interestingly, what they like, or what type of girl they like, their hobbies, or introduce themselves briefly.

Then it was finally Izumi's turn to introduce himself.

Izumi glanced around. If he didn't have his memories from his previous life, perhaps he would be nervous when he was the center of attention. But now, he calmly stood up while introducing himself.

"My name is Miyamura Izumi. I'm just an average person with an average score. My hobby is sleeping, because sleeping is a part of our lives."

"Pffft."

"Hahaha."

"Seriously. He literally said that."

Almost everyone in the class laughed. Some of them put on weird expressions after they heard how Izumi introduced himself.

Izumi sat down and ignored the others when they introduced themselves afterward. He opened his phone.

[You received a first-time reward.

5000 Shop Coins

*4 Internal Body Cleanser

claim/claim all

yes/no]

"Internal Body Cleanser? What effect did it have?" Izumi pondered.

"I guess, I will put it on hold. I'll claim it later after school." Izumi said inwardly. While he couldn't claim it right away, he could let the others try it first, then start to chat in the group.
