Chapter 2: Metempsychosis

" ugh.. " with pain all over his body, a certain boy struggled to stand up in a certain bedroom of a noble mansion.

Yes, this boy was Alex who just transmigrated into the body of a teen noble who just died.

"Ugh where is this, what happened, didn't I get hit by the truck, how come I am here."

Just like he asked the Goddess, Alex didn't remember about his meeting with the Goddess.

As soon as he said that he felt a little nauseous and soon his eyesight blurred and he began to lose consciousness, after dwindling for a few seconds 'thump' he fell on the bed.

It was good that he fainted as he wouldn't have been able to withstand the sheer amount of pain he would have suffered from the merging of his soul with his new body and the pain from transferring the memories of the previous owner of the body to him.

After a little over a day of continuous sleeping, he finally woke up. During sleep, the memories of the previous owner of the body were shown to him as a dream, so he already knew what happened.

After waking up he sat on the side of the bed with dazed eyes, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he wanted to laugh because he really reincarnated in a fantasy world and now can live freely on his own terms.

From the memories he received, he found out that he came to a planet called 'Arendelle'.

The world has 4 major continents out of which one belongs to the Elves, one to the Beastmen and of course, one belongs to humans. The last continent is also the biggest but is described as wilderness with no ruler because of the high numbers of magical bests residing in the Continent.

But that doesn't mean that there are no Elves or Beastmen on other continents. Although not common but also not rare, there are large numbers of other species on each continent.

Each continent is several times the Earth.

The name of the human continent is Mordor. Right now, Alex is in the Thedas kingdom, which is one of the many kingdoms on the Mordor Continent.

Coincidentally his name in this life is also Alex and his family name is Caesar.

The original Alex was a skinny 14-year-old boy with no common sense and responsibilities. His father had high hopes for him but all that he got was a failure of a son. His body was not obese but certainly more than fat.

He spent all his time on bars, brothels and used to harass the servants and knights of the family for the smallest reasons.

A typical spoiled brat example.

It seems that the original Alex was taken to a ball in the capital city by his father a few days ago, where he was humiliated in front of everyone by other children of his age and especially by a boy named Bernard.

He was certainly above fat and wasn't even a class one mage or knight by the age of 14 and as such was deeply humiliated.

After returning home he drank himself to death.

A typical third-rate life and end.

"Even though I got your body, I can't even take revenge for you with this weak and frail body. And by the looks of it, it doesn't appear that this body has talent in either mage or knighthood, so I may not be able to take revenge for you even in the future."

After thinking for a while Alex stood up, he knew that he couldn't do anything so he just wanted to forget about it for now and wanted to eat something since he has been sleeping for a day, and his body has been without food all the time.

Even after not coming out of the room, none of the servants came in to check on him, not even his parents came as him not coming out of the room for a whole day under the influence of alcohol was a common occurrence.

As soon as he started walking towards the door he heard a sweet loli mechanical sound in his head and a blue screen appeared in front of his eyes.

[Ding! Congratulations Host for awakening the Appraisal system]

As soon as Alex heard this, he frowned because he knew exactly what was coming for him. In all the novels Alex used to read to pass the time, he always hated systems with level-up, quests, and experience. The idea of a system controlling your life was also a reason, but the main part was that the Main character always getting techniques, skills, artifacts, and treasures from the system by completing miscellaneous tasks annoyed him to no end.

For him, the idea to simply become strong in just a few days by leveling up after killing a few monsters was nothing but hateful.

[ Transferring all the knowledge and functions of the system to the host's mind]

But it seemed like the system had heard his complaints as he could not hide his large grin after getting all the information.

A sequel left his mouth as he was experiencing bone-chilling, soul-shattering pain.

He fell on the ground as he couldn't maintain his balance and held his head with his two hands with his palm above his ears and pressed it so tight that blood started to flow out of his ear lobules. He couldn't move his body as his body has temporarily paralyzed from the pain and shock and his skin began to pale.

After a few seconds, the pain started to subside and Alex began to recover his movements and blood rate started to return to normal, his pale skin was slowly but surely recovering his body color.

After gasping for a few minutes, Alex stood up and fell on the bed, letting his body regain its former condition.

After laying on the bed for a few more minutes, Alex stood up and started walking towards the bathroom. He walked up to the mirror and didn't even bother to look at his face clearly or clean the blood.

He just stood up in front of the mirror, looked at his figure in the mirror, and muttered a single word."Appraisal".

Just then, his ocean blue eyes started shining, although they didn't change color but the difference was evident, these eyes would shine even in immense darkness and bring out a majestic blue colour.

Alex also saw that, but he wasn't interested in his eyes because for him the looks weren't important. What he was focusing on was a blue window that appeared in front of him as soon as muttered the word.

Alex Caesar, 14

*Traits :

Leadership: 78/99

Wisdom: 82/96

Politics: 85/97

Business: 75/98

*Aptitudes :

Infantry: F

(Spear)

Bow:F

Magic: F

Other talents: No other special talents.

Special talents: Monarch

Even After looking at his horrific aptitudes Alex couldn't help but grin because he knew that with the help of a system, he could easily improve them in the future.

The traits mentioned in the above status were his own traits which were etched in his soul, they were something he couldn't improve. Although he could improve his current traits but not their potential.

For example - the above trait of wisdom, it refers to the resourcefulness and strategy-making abilities of the mind.

His current wisdom is 82/96, in this case, it refers that his current wisdom is 82 while his maximum potential meaning the maximum his wisdom can reach is 96.

The potential and current traits are measured in numbers ranging from 0 to 100 with 100 being the highest for any trait.

His Aptitudes are something which were horrific. He had F-rank potential in all his aptitudes meaning that at most he will be able to reach Class 1 knight using infantry weapons or bow or at most he will be able to reach Class 1 mage because of his F-rank potential.

The traits of the previous Alex were different since he had his unique soul while these traits show the traits of current Alex after he has transmigrated in this body.

But the Aptitudes were the same and didn't change for both since Aptitudes are related to the physical body and not the soul.

( For those who didn't understand this paragraph just above may refer to auxiliary chapters since I have explained it there or may continue reading as I will slowly explain once again in the upcoming chapters)

Other talents refer to other professions such as alchemist, blacksmith, architecture, and other talent-related professions.

Whereas special talents are introduced in this chapter, they will include special talents of someone like if someone has the potential for cavalry, someone who is more suited for the navy, or if someone has the potential to become a spy or assassin.

' It seems I really will be able to get you your revenge Alex.' Alex mused to himself.

Alex was overall happy with the system as this could be clearly seen on his face. With a joyous expression, he quickly took a bath and got ready, and came out of the room.

As this was the time of breakfast in the morning, he started to walk towards the dining table in the hall to meet his new parents and to quickly stuff himself with food.
