Upon regaining consciousness, the first thing I felt was pain.
An overwhelming pain for about 2 hours.
Finally being able to see a white light, I couldn't help but cry out loud.
"Congratulations, Mrs. Kurosaki, it's a healthy boy," said one of the nurses.
"Thank... God... that... my baby is healthy," said Masaki Kurosaki.
6 months later.
Right now, I'm in the living room, watching television.
These 6 months have been quite boring; after all, I have nothing to do.
I was born on July 15th, like the original Ichigo Kurosaki.
The only difference is the year I was born.
The Ichigo from Bleach was born in 1985, and I was born in 1970.
15 years before the Ichigo from Bleach was born.
The only thing I find strange is that the technology in this world is quite advanced for this century.
If I'm not mistaken, the technology is at the level of the year 2020 from my previous life.
At first, I thought it was a good sign; maybe I could watch the anime and read the manga of this world.
But manga doesn't even exist in this world, much less anime.
At first, I thought it was quite strange, until I remembered that manga in my past life became popular in the 1980s.
Then I thought that this world, although technologically more advanced, had its advantages and disadvantages.
Another thing I discovered was that in this world there are no portals, monsters, or card masters.
I was quite confused by the situation, until one day, when I learned to crawl, I decided to enter the library that contains all the anime from my past life to relieve some of the boredom.
Yes, the library I have is in a different dimension.
What, did you think it would be like the Chinese ones whose abilities are in their mental space? Well, no.
The entrance to this pocket dimension is quite simple; as long as I have the will to enter, I can enter through any shadow I touch.
Like the ability of the Quincy. When I entered my library, the first thing I found was a banner that read:
[Congratulations on entering the library of knowledge.]
[For your information, I, the god who reincarnated you, wrote this. As you may have noticed, in your world there are no portals, monsters, card masters, or hunters.]
[The reason is quite simple: I reincarnated you 14 years before the portals and monsters began to appear.]
[What, did you think I would reincarnate you into a world with a civilization rebuilt after the apocalypse?]
[Too cliché, it's better that you build a new society.]
[But don't worry, even though I reincarnated you 14 years before the temporal apocalypse, you'll be strong enough by the time you're 14.]
[Of course, that's only if you train every day without rest.]
[After all, Killua and Gon from the anime Hunter x Hunter went on an adventure when they were 12 years old. You at least have two more years than them. Bye, and good luck.]
After reading the message that God left me, I simply accepted it, turned around, and left my library through my own shadow.
The truth is, very few things cause me strong emotional fluctuations.
The internet from my past life made me insensitive to most things.
Almost nothing excites me anymore. What excited me most in my past life was anime and fanfiction.
6 years later.
"Ichigo, are you ready for your first day of school?" Masaki Kurosaki asked her son Ichigo while putting on his shoes.
"Yes, Mom, it's no big deal, it's just school," Ichigo replied indifferently.
"Always so calm, that's my son," Isshin Kurosaki said proudly, hands on his hips.
"Honey, he's still a child, it's not good for him to be so calm, otherwise he won't have any friends at school."
"Don't worry, Masaki, our son is quite the charmer. I saw him seducing a girl with gray hair the other day in the park." "Don't be silly, Dad, she's the one who invited me to play."
"Honey, don't bother Ichigo, but I'm glad you made a friend besides Nasa," Masaki said.
Note: Nasa Yuzaki from the anime Tonikaku Kawaii.
"Wow, look how late it is, everyone to the car!"
Dad started acting silly again.
15 minutes later.
At the school gate.
I'm so excited, this is the first time I've been able to do something I saw in an anime.
Taking a school photo with my parents on the first day of school.
Although it's a family tradition in Japan.
My father is wearing a black formal suit, and my mother is wearing a red dress that suits her well.
I, on the other hand, am wearing the school uniform.
My school uniform consists of gray trousers, a white short-sleeved shirt, and a blue tie with white stripes.
It's practically the same as the Karakura High School uniform.
After my parents and I took some pictures, they left me with one of the teachers in charge of the first grade.
And at this moment, I just want to die. The reason is simple.
The children are crying non-stop.
My head hurts just from being surrounded by such high-pitched screams.
And so I suffered for 3 weeks, until the children got used to being without their parents' company.
2 years since then.
In Ichigo's room.
Ichigo is exercising, doing push-ups while wearing clothes that increase the weight on his body.
2995, 2996, 2997, 2998.
"Ichigo, I've come to visit you," a girl with ash-gray hair and turquoise eyes enters my room without warning, interrupting Ichigo's training.
"Hi Nia, it's been almost two weeks since we last saw each other, where have you been?"
"I was on vacation with my parents at the beach," Nia replied.
"Oh, I see, and how was your trip?" Ichigo replied as he got up from the floor.
"It was a lot of fun, I played in the sand and learned to swim," she says in a very cheerful tone.
"I'm so glad."
"Yes, but it wasn't as much fun without you and Nasa."
"Don't worry, I'm sure next time we'll all go together," Ichigo says while stroking her hair.
"Really?"
"Yes, but come on, we have to find Nasa to play," I said.
"Okay then, let's go look for Nasa," Nia replied happily.
We left my room and started going down the stairs.
But only the footsteps of one person could be heard.
After all, I've learned the [Rhythmic Echo] of the Zoldyck Family.
In fact, Ichigo Kurosaki at this moment is as strong as a Killua Zoldyck without having learned [Nen].
A physical strength of 16 tons.
As I went down the stairs, I heard voices and laughter from the living room.
"Mom, I'm going out to play with Nia and Nasa at the park."
I say as I stand in front of the living room. "Okay Ichigo, but remember to be back before lunchtime," said Masaki Kurosaki.
"I understand, before 2:00," I replied.
"Hello Ichigo-kun, look how much you've grown in just two weeks," said Nia's mother, Mrs. Honjou.
Yes, Nia Honjou is my friend. That Nia Honjou from the anime Date A Live, the second Spirit and code name [Sister].
Although right now she's just a very cheerful little girl.
"Okay Mom, and thank you for the compliment, Aunt Honjou," I said, bowing.
"Come on Ichigo, don't be so formal, just call me Aunt and have fun."
"Okay."
"Alright then, go play and have fun," Masaki said with a smile and giving Ichigo a kiss on the forehead.
"What! I want one too, Mom," said Nia, running towards her mother to get a kiss on the forehead.
*kiss*
"Take care and have fun, sweetie," Mrs. Honjou said.
"Yes!" Nia replied cheerfully.
After leaving my house, we headed to the house next door, the Yuzaki family's house.
*ding-dong* *ding-dong*
"Hello Ichigo-kun, Nia-chan. You came to get Nasa," said Nasa's mother.
"Yes, Nasa can play with us at the park," I replied and asked.
"Of course, let me get him."
"Nasa, Ichigo and Nia came to get you to play at the park."
After about 2 minutes, Nasa came down from his room with three sets of toy buckets and shovels to play in the sand.
"Ichigo, Nia, good morning," said an 8-year-old Nasa Yuzaki.
And handing each of us a small bucket with tools to play in the sand.
"See you in a bit, Aunt Yuzaki," X2.
"See you later, Mom."
"Go carefully and have fun."
"Yessss!" X3. A few minutes later, in one of the city parks.
"Hey Nasa, they're still making fun of your name," I asked.
"Well, after you defended me from the bullies, they don't bother me anymore," Nasa replied.
"Your parents are so weird, who would name their kid after the National Aeronautics and Space Administration?" Nia said cheerfully as she filled her bucket with sand.
"I often wonder that myself," Nasa sighed.
"Don't worry, after all, your parents just want their son to be strong and smart enough to reach the moon," I said, finishing filling my sand bucket.
"The truth is, I've never actually asked Mom and Dad," Nasa said distractedly.
"Well, when we finish playing, let's all go together and ask your parents, Nasa," Nia said cheerfully.
"You'll really come with me to ask Mom and Dad?" Nasa's green eyes lit up with hope.
"Of course, after all, the three of us are best friends," I said with a toothy grin, extending my hand in a fist towards the center.
Nia also raised her hand in a fist towards the center.
Nasa happily raised his fist towards the center too.
And at the same time, we bumped our fists together.
"We are and always will be best friends," we all said at the same time.
