5 minutes before midnight. at a party in a nice looking villa five people were sitting at a table.
"hey guys, im going to head home. see ya!" a big burly man stands up and says.
"aww come on! it was just getting fun." a thin guy said while obviously drunk
"sorry man, you know how scary my mom can get!" the big man said with a timid expression that does not fit his build.
"yeah alright see you next time!"
as the big guy left the others continued playing games and drinking.
"I better hurry home so mom does not get upset at me" the big guy said to himself while walking.
the big guy is called skull, or at least his friends call him that because of the skull tatoo he has on his face.
skull is part of a small gang where he works as a 'peacekeeper' using his size and intimidating gaze to scare troublemakers and even some criminals into living an honest life, however contrary to his looks, he is very afraid of hurting others and getting hurt himself.
his mom is a very grumpy woman who raised skull on her own after his dad died, his mom hated gangs and skull used to get into trouble for hanging out with his gang member friends but one day after skull told his mom about what the gang he is a part of does his mom allowed him to stay, but always remember three things: 1 he cannot stay out late, 2 he cannot bully anyone and 3 he has to tell his mom if something happens.
the gang he is a part of is not a regular gang, it is a gang that takes in people who used to be gang members or lackeys who wanted to get their life together. helping others to apologize for their wrongdoings is their thing.
bang! as skull was walking he heard a loud sound, startling him. after looking around for a bit he did not notice anything strange.
but when he started walking again he lost consciousness.
...
"where am i...? as skull woke up he realized that he was in a completely white room
"i am in an empty white room?" "did i get kidnapped for ransom?" "no, that cant be, my family is as poor as a pile of dirt." "so why am i here?" "maybe someone wanted me gone?"
as these thoughts were floating around his head skull heard a mechanical voice in his mind
[ding! greetings host]
[you are currently in the room of reincarnation]
[you can roll for your reincarnation here]
"wait, reincarnation!?"
[yes host]
"like in those novels?"
[yes host]
"so i died?"
[yes host]
"..."
as skull stopped speaking with the mechanical voice in his mind a fortune wheel appeared in front of him.
on the wheel were numbers from 1 to 20 that kept changing.
[please roll for your reincarnation]
"um... like this?" skull asked as he swung the wheel without any resistance making the wheel spin with much more force than it looked like it should be able to take.
"it wont break, right?
[do not worry host, this system is completely problem proof]
"well if you say so"
as the wheel began to slow down it landed on a 15.
[ding! congratulations host your reincarnation will be: 'demon lord']
[error][error][error]
[an error has appeared]
[the system will now restart]
"what!?"
[error][error]
as the system constantly said the same thing over and over skull asked worriedly "hey system, did something go wrong?"
[no host this is a... feature! congratulations for obtaining a new chance to roll for your reincarnation!]
"uh, okay?" after learning a certain lesson back in his world he knew better than to call someone out for things they could not do anything about, and he had a feeling the system did not expect this to happen.
"well lets roll then!" skull said as he exerted more than enough force on the wheel, while making it spin he was trying not to remember the lesson he was taught back in his world with a shiver going down his spine.
as the wheel slowed down it stopped on a 2.
[ding! congatulations host your reincarnation will be: 'goblin']
"hey system what is this, why is there such a large gap between my rewards?"
but the system did not anwser instead it repeatedly said one familiar word, that word being:
[error]
[error][error][error][error]
[error][error]
[an error has ocurred]
[the system will now reroll]
with these words from the system the wheel suddenly started spinning and stopping on a 4.
[ding! Congatulations host your reincarnation will be: 'human']
followed by another round of.
[error][error][error]
[error][error]
[error][error][error][error]
[an error has ocurred]
[the system will now reroll]
"..."
[ding! Congatulations host your reincarnation will be: 'common house plant']
[error][error][error][error][error]
[error][error][error][error][error][error]
[error][error][error]
[an error has ocurred]
[the system will now reroll]
and then the wheel started spinning again, not caring about the large man next to it who was looking at it with mixed feelings and making a weird face.
"guess those novels were wrong, reincarnation really is not as nice as expected."
...ten minutes.
...twenty minutes.
...forty minutes.
...an hour.
with nothing to do skull started to count how long it was taking.
...two hours
...two and a half hours
...five hours
in the white room a loud yawn could suddenly be heard.
"oh right it was already dark when i arrived here, guess i should go to sleep."
during his time in the room skull started experimenting, since he could still get hungry and thirsty he wanted to know if he could get some food. and after thinking he wants food a plate of whatever he wants appears in the middle of the room, by thinking he wants to sit a chair appears behind him. and so while thinking about sleeping a bed appeared in front of him. he even managed to get the system to do whatever it was doing quietly.
after thinking about the light in the room being removed everything went dark, and before long soft sleeping sounds were the only sound in the room.
"man, that was a weird dream." skull said as he slowly woke up and thought about the light reappearing.
as the light started to shine and he saw the wheel spinning skull realized it was not a dream.
"damn it..." he thought
after skull fully woke up he decided to have breakfast, "what should i eat" he thought, while thinking he looked in the direction of the wheel, seeing it spin so carelessly made him kinda upset.
as skull looked at the wheel angrily it landed on a 20.
[ding! Congratulations host your reincarnation will be: 'dragon god']
"excuse me?"
[host, you must now roll for your stats!]
"wait a second, dragon god? will i be reincarnated as a dragon god?"
[indeed host!]
"no error?"
[do not worry host, the error has been fixed!]
hearing the system speak skull wanted to yell as loudly as he could, but he had something more Important to do, like roll his stats!
"okay, start rolling!" as soon as the words left skulls mouth a large 20 sided dice appeared in front of him, the numbers on the dice kept switching, but always becoming the numbers from 1 to 20.
the dice bounced up, flipped around in midair, and then landed on a 15.
[ding! Congratulations host your strength stat has been set to ×5!]
"okay, that seems like it is good. next!"
the dice bounced up, flipped around again, and then landed on a 10.
[ding! Congratulations host your speed stat has been set to neutral!]
"alright, it looks like rolls of ten are not enhanced, only above ten counts as enhancement, but what about under ten?" skull quietly thought.
[ding! Congratulations host your health stat has been set to ×3]
[ding! Congratulations host your elemental resistance stat has been set to ×2]
[ding! Congratulations host your magic resistance stat has been set to ×6]
and so the stats kept rolling, until it was time to roll for defense.
the dice landed on a 3, surprising skull since the dice had not been lower than 10 before this.
[ding! Congratulations host your defense stat has been set to [error][error]]
[an error has occurred, rerolling stat]
as skull had a bad feeling about this the dice bounced up again and landed on the ground.
[ding! Congratulations host your defense stat has been set to [unknown error]]
"what?!" skull yelled loudly.
[ding! Congratulations host you have completed a hidden mission!]
[achievement complete! 'too much defense']
"phew, i thought the defense was too low to be counted." skull sighed.
[as a reward from the achievement you get the skill 'physical attack immunity']
"excuse me?"
[what is wrong host?]
"did you just say immunity?"
[correct host, that is indeed what was said!] the system said happily, as if it did not just say something completely insane.
"immunity, as in i do not take damage?" skull asked happily.
[indeed host! you are now unable to take physical damage!] the system answered.
[ding! host, it is time to be reincarnated! get ready!] as the system said this skull felt like he was slowly falling asleep.
after completely closing his eyes skull disappeared from the room.
[ding! an error has occurred. an unknown existence has interrupted the reincarnation, attempting to fix the problem]
[fixing the problem]
[fixing failed]
[fixing the problem]
[fixing failed]
after skull left the system said some worrying things, but no one was there to hear those things.
