Shut-in Magician

One white sun in a bright blue sky with no clouds.

The shadow of a relaxing walk down a long idle country road.

A little boy was stroking his stomach as he sang.

[Nemura-, Nemura-, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.]

Schubert's lullaby is playing a little out of tune.

If anyone had listened, they must have tilted their neck wondering which country the song was from. That's because if it wasn't in the language of any country in this world, it was a song I'd never heard.

Nevertheless, the world is wide. Even if you've never heard it, it's a song and a word from some country. Nobody cares about a kid's nose song.

And there was nobody on the country road but the boy.

The boy is named Siu and has just come out of the country town. In the countryside, there are only jobs like help and assistance, and I don't see a way ahead for a boy without a parent to serve as a back shield. So the only cleric in town advised me to "leave town because there is so much work to do in Wang Du". The man, too, had decided to leave town due to the transfer. As long as the clergy was gone, it was a neglected town.

I was also able to inherit the traces of the old man who raised me on behalf of my parents. In the country, most of them inherited the traces of their parents, and their grandfather had no other family.

But the day before his eleventh birthday, God told me in my dreams, "Be an adventurer and enjoy life". Normally, you wouldn't believe in God's dreams or anything like that. "I have the power of the Divine Son! Unless you believe...

I just had reason to believe that Siu had a God.

In the first place, Siu was a Japanese named Soutaro, who had lived a long time in his previous life at the age of ninety.

I had the precious experience of waking up thinking "You were a big student" after I died.

I calm down and look around and I don't see a three-way river. The River Midway still sounded discouraged when he thought it was a lie.

"Hello, Sautaro"

Looking back, a little girl stood. She was a girl with strange signs.

Do I remember nostalgia somewhere because the girl looks Japanese shaped? But that outfit is only white simple piercing clothes. And he smiled, but his eyes were like an abyss. The girl didn't have the "creature" vibe of a human being. So I felt, "The girl in front of me could be God".

Still, I guess it's because I still had incredible thoughts. Sakutaro called out feeling like he was turning to the child.

"Hello, young lady"

"Well, I can't believe you're a lady!

The girl was pleased to see her hands on her cheeks and shaking. But it also looks like an act somehow. It's a strange thing. I thought Sakutaro.

"... you're calm, Mr. Soutaro"

The girl coughed with Cohon and got a serious look. If you think it's something that makes a surprisingly human odor move,

"... Mr. Sotaro thinks I'm not human, right?

and so on. After all, it's God.

"Divine, so I thought it was God"

"... thanks"

He shook his head like it didn't matter, and the girl went on to say.

"Let's get down to business. You were born earlier at the age of ninety. I am a virtuous person, and I have a chance to go up to heaven because of my accomplishments. But what about going to heaven as a fairy, so I came to suggest reincarnation."

There was a word I didn't quite understand. No, I know about your chances, though old man. I also know it's heaven. I can understand the term reincarnation because I have also lived as a Japanese. But.

"Since when have I been a fairy, not a human?"

"... uh. Apparently, I've been too immersed in Japanese culture lately!

When Soutaro stared at the girl jizzily, the girl corrected her residence and coughed Cohon again.

"Mr. Soutaro, you have sadly finished your life as a virgin. In some neighborhoods, they call them 'fairies' because they're virgins up to ninety. I mean, it's up to me to think it's too pitiful that I was born unable to carry out reproductive activities."

Certainly, Sautaro is not married.

He suffered incendiary bullets during the war and sustained severe burns to his face and body while weak and unable to alienate. I wandered the dead line many times. And although he was a concubine, he was the third son of a big merchant, but he lost it all due to an air raid. I apologized to the woman for the pageant that such a man had no daughter-in-law, but rather such a man's daughter-in-law, and I said no.

"Mr. Soutaro still worked desperately, didn't he? When the company goes bankrupt, you quit and try to make it survive. How many times have you been in the hospital, working and working? I've been helped a few times, and everyone in town loved me, but at the end of the day you were lonely..."

It's commonly called lonely death.

It's a good thing I didn't suffer because I'm a freshman. I suffered from illness and burns when I was younger, but therefore lived longer thanks to my continued hard work on my body.

It was lonely, but I think it was more or less a good life.

"You've had some momentum that's going to make you immortal already, Mr. Sautaro"

"No, I can't be the immortal."

"... Mr. Soutaro. Um, what is it to say to you like that, why don't you try again in your life?

"No, I..."

"Now I wonder if it's a good time to live a life that's not lonely."

Indeed, Sakutaro was too lonely. Since he was an oligarchy, there was no such thing as a friendly conversation with anyone. I liked children and animals, but I couldn't even talk or touch them more because I was frightened.

"... the elementary school watchmen had fun. Let's have a conversation. Well, my first child cried."

"It's the burns on your face, isn't it? But he said he missed you later."

"Well, well, well, well."

"He will discover the remains of Mr. Sautaro."

"What?"

"It's been ten days since Mr. Sotaro died because of the different flow of time there. I stopped by Mr. Sautaro's apartment because he was worried and discovered it.... 'I wish you'd come sooner,' he cried with regret."

That's what they taught me, and Soutaro cried.

"He seems to have cared about Mr. Sautaro even after he got the job. Mr. Sotaro, you've been too lonely from yourself."

I was taught that there were others who were worried, and Sautaro was driven by regret.

"So, why don't you try again, start over in your life!

As if it were some sort of solicitation, the girl said momentum well.

But I'm afraid I'll lose my present self when they say reincarnation. Sakutaro said, "I'm still fine," and I said no.

"Ok ok, you're reincarnated with yourself!

And Nori gave it back often. It is the young people of today themselves in television.

"So, what about skills? You want it!

"I don't know what sukiru is"

"... the enemy was a modern fossil"

To Sotaro leaning his neck, the girl showed him her palms and let him snort exaggerated like an outsider.

"First, I thought I'd give you the ability"

"Capabilities are what you strive to gain yourself, right?

"... this is a gift from God, it's also a gift! Oh, you know what a gift is, don't you? Anyway, you make the Heaven Row a reincarnation row, so you have to give it quite a gift, it's up to you!

Sautaro smiled at the girl whose words were getting strange. Because I remember the elementary school children.

"Gohon! Forget that. Anyway, I'll give you skills. Um, I don't know what to do. Oh, you need cheats too."

"Cheats are -"

"I'm glad you didn't tell everyone!

"... Yes"

I felt like God was about to leave me alone, but I nodded silently.

"I know what life was like, but I don't know how you want to live. So tell me what you think, Mr. Sautaro."

"My -"

"How do you want to live your next life?"

That's what they said, Soutaro thought.

That's what I hope is a healthy, non-painful body.

I lost everything and stood in the burning field. That I remember that feeling and that I don't want to lose anything anymore.

Marriage is a compatibility issue, so it doesn't matter if you can or can't, but I think you'd be happy if you could get along with the kids and the animals.

God of the girl, - I later found out that she looks different depending on who sees her - she gave Sotaro her skills by making a big interpretation.

An all-purpose ability called cheat.

But it was not long before the reincarnated Soutaro found out about it.

Thanks to God, I couldn't cut a good life ahead of me.

Nevertheless, it shouldn't have been that bad, due to the blessings of raising parents and the experience of working under artisans.

However, only my favorite drawstring physique of solitude was unlikely to heal. Anyway, the old man who raised me was pulling himself into the mountains. The raised Siu also honestly inherited its temperament, so I can't help but say.
