I will start high school today.

　The classmates I meet for the first time, the unfamiliar classroom, and the school events that are different from those of junior high school.
　I walk to school with all kinds of worries and expectations.

　I bump into the heroine with a loaf of bread in her mouth at the corner, we get into an argument, we happen to be in the same class and things get a little awkward, and we get into all sorts of trouble, but we keep on making love.

　The first event that comes to my mind when I have such a fantasy is a collision with a train.







◇







This is....

　When I woke up, I found myself in a completely white room.

'I was hit by a train earlier... what?'

　When I look at his body, it's unharmed.
　

''That's because this isn't real, you know.

　Suddenly, someone spoke to me. When I turned around, I saw a familiar old man standing there.

"Ho-ho-ho, don't be so alarmed. I'm a god.

　God? ...Oh, I just remembered! That's the old man who fell at the railroad crossing! He was trying to help me and I got hit by a train.

I'm sorry about that. I was going down to the world in a human body, but I couldn't get used to it. I stepped on a banana peel at a railroad crossing and hurt my knee. Then the train came and I almost died.

　How screwed up is it that a banana peel is going to kill you?

"Ho-ho-ho, I get that a lot.

　I mean, if you're a god, you can die, right? Also, have you been reading my mind?

Well, I've been reading your mind. It's easy to read your mind. After all, he is a god.

　Oh, he really is God.

And I don't care if I die. My body is just a vessel for me.

　Seriously then it was none of your business to save me.

No, no, no, no, no. I am truly grateful to you.

　Why?

I may look like this, but I'm a great god. I stepped on a banana peel in this world and died, and all the gods who love to talk about it are going to give me a hard time.

　Gossip is such a thing in God's world, isn't it?

'There's a weekly newsletter, too? But I digress. There are gods other than those who love to gossip, but there are also gods who are after my position. If you died like that in this world, what can they say?

　Wow, you sound like a politician. It's tough on God, isn't it?

It's hard work. They might be the same as humans in that area. So, then. Unfortunately, you're dead.

　Oh, I knew he was dead.

Yes, I'm really sorry. I'm sorry. I've never in my life allowed a person as kind-hearted as you to die.

　Don't they ever accuse you of that?

These gods that vie for my position have no regard for human life. The fact that I stepped on a banana peel is more of a story than the fact that I caused you to die.

　Wow, that sucks. And I'm losing my banana peel........

'Don't take it seriously. There is something wrong with those gods. Your deeds are right and your life is precious.

　Wow.....
　I felt like I was going to burst into tears. The one word that cares about me resonates with me like a ton of bricks. He really is a god, isn't he?

I'll tell you what. Don't you want to start your life all over again?

　Start your life over?

'Yes. I'm sorry to say this, but I had a look at your bag. Is this kind of thing popular nowadays?

　God had a novel in my bag that I was reading.

I know of a world like the one described in this novel. I know a world like the one described in this book, a world where all races live and swords and magic rule. Wouldn't you like to go there?

　That's called.....

It's called inter-world reincarnation.

　Whoa, whoa, whoa! I'm a little scared, but I want to go!

Ho-ho-ho, that's fine. And of course, I'll give you a 'cheeto'.

　Oh, you're sure!

Of course. I'll keep my memory and body intact and strengthen my physical abilities. I'll also increase your ability to learn skills. That way, you'll be able to learn any magic or martial arts skill with a single glance.

　Whoa!

As an added bonus, I'll give you a few of my powers. You'll figure it out soon enough.

　Whoa! Thank you!

Good. I'd hate for you to be reincarnated because of my mistake.

　Still, thank you. I can do it all over again and even get the cheat ability.

''Hohohoho, I'd like to talk to you some more, but it's about time. The place of incarnation has been set up in a safe forest. A short walk towards the direction of the wind will lead you to the city.

　Yes, sir!

Good luck.

　Yes. God, please be careful not to screw up anymore.

'Ho-ho-ho! Well, I'll be careful. Goodbye.


　At the same time as God's words, a tremendous sleepiness came over me.
　Ah, I can really reincarnate.





◇





　When I wake up, it's dark. And it's cold.

"Where am I? I thought you said God was in the woods but I'm pretty sure it's not the woods.

　I'm naked and somehow trapped in the bag.
　When I boldly tear open the bag, it's still dark. It looks like I'm trapped in a small box.

"Good boy!

　There seemed to be a doorway at my feet. I kicked it as hard as I could and the door came off.

"Phew, we're out of here.

　I crawled out of the small box and looked around to see a room with countless silver doors, the same ones I'd kicked through.
　I've seen it before in dramas and movies. This is the morgue.


I've never been tossed into another world!
