I stayed silent. Lamenting the fate that had passed my own common sense. The shrill buzz in my head kept ceasing. The more I tried to remember something from my memory, the shrill the buzz I felt.
"Hey! Are you okay?" Someone who was dressed thickly approached me.
"I'm just a little dizzy. If I may know, what is this place?"
"If you want to know, let's talk about this in the hall with the others."
"Others? What do you mean?" The man did not answer. He just pulled me with him.
We entered a spacious room. There are 9 people who are complaining. Maybe they experienced the same thing like me.
The man told everyone to sit on the bench that had been provided. He started the conversation using something like a spell. I don't know whether it's real or just the habits of old man. But the aura around the man slowly changed.
"To all of you, I welcome you to Starting Town. Maybe you are asking about yourself. I can only tell you. You have successfully reincarnated into this world."
Spontaneous everyone was surprised.
"There is no such thing as reincarnation in this world, Old Man!" The black body man was furious.
"Don't call me that. Brandan. That's my name." The old man walked between us, "You may not believe, but that's what is happening here. The first proof is that you don't remember your names. Or do you remember your own names?"
The old man pointed one by one towards us.
Everything just fell silent. Mute.
"The second proof, you will feel vaguely your previous lives. But you don't forget your respective skills." The old man plays his eyebrows.
No one can argue.
"It seems like you have started to understand. Surely for now you must decide your own name. And take this." The old man walked over to a box near the wall. He opened and displayed the contents.
"These are your supplies. Your basic weapons. For personal protection. And don't worry about financial problems. Each of you gets it too. And it will be sent directly to your Bits. Items like watches are called Bits. All kinds of information , you can access directly from it. I can't provide further information to you. Because I'm a very busy person. " He coughed.
The man left. Meanwhile, we are in a confused situation. Yes. I'm really confused. Reincarnation, Bits and so on made me even more confused.
"So how will I call you?" The black man asked me.
"Oh, that ... I haven't decided yet."
"I'm Jack. At least it's a name that is suitable for someone like me."
The man then moved to take his supplies. I also tried to use my Bits. When the screen is rubbed, a hologram appears in front of my face.
"You can't use it before entering your name." Jack said.
"Oh. Thank you for the advice."
"Remember Bro. Names are just names. No more no less," he explained.
I can only smile and reply to his words. He and several other people had left the room. I also started typing a name. With the virtual keyboard that appears in the hologram, my fingers begin to take action.
<< GONIST >> y / n?
I'm still worried. Is this suitable or not. Maybe Justin B is cooler. But I'm not a handsome man. then I press << yes >>.
Instantly the hologram screen seemed to overwhelm me. I was surrounded by it like doing a verification process to myself. I can only be stunned.
Shortly afterwards the hologram screen disappeared. And everything shrinks into Bits. I tried to wipe the screen on Bits. On the first page I see my data. Names, faces and other information are here. Then I rubbed once more. This time it has a lot of choices. There are << Lighter >>, << Friends >>, << Guild >>, << Map >>, << Item >> and << QUEST >>. To be sure, these features seem to be very important. But before, I have to take my supplies.
What's left is a backpack, and a hunting knife. When I take these things. Bits immediately raises the hologram screen around the object. The hunting knife was mentioned by the Bits with the name << Dagger >>. And this screen gives a description of this dagger.
I went out. Start approaching the cliffs on the edge of this building. And once again, my eyes were truly spoiled by this extraordinary sight. As if we can see the whole world with our eyes.
"AAAAAAAA" I shouted. My voice echoed in all directions.
I heard a loud laugh.
"Why stop?" said the muscular man who just laughed.
"I don't know why I'm happy. But on the other hand I feel sad."
"HAHAHAHA. You know, Starting Town is a city located on the highest plateau in the world. Even though the city is small, you can see everything from here."
His words cannot be denied. What a magnificent sight.
I think 'maybe' I can live a new life in this world. Reincarnation and senseless things here are frightening me. Really scared. Do not have family, memory, wealth, throne. I really started from the beginning. This world is still truly a mystery. And this awkwardness in my mind is the only thing left of me. Could this be a clue or a bad sign?
