Magical Or Normal Life? ...In Another World

PROLOGUE

Do you think magic is always been in the fantasy only? Monster, Elves, Magical Beast, Demons, Dwarfs, and Beastfolks. You think their only in books or fiction but for me I didn't think this world exists. 

I been reincarnated here in the world of magic and sword, I was born into an ordinary and normal family we are living in the forest that surrounded by mountains. There are many monsters that freely running to it. Because we live in the forest our living is to hunt and farm fields.

Anyone of you believe in reincarnation from another world? 

for me it's only exist in the books. 

After I died and before reincarnated in this world..., i met a goddess that grant me a blessing through lottery but before i draw into the lottery she warned me not to use it to do bad things. 

At first i think i been frank by someone and can't even ask where am i because I don't remember how i died. 

He is looking down on the floor thinking where he is.I held up my head to look who is in front of me.

"Who are you?"

So I just staring a goddess that talking to me and listen to what she is saying, my mind is blank that i can't think what i gonna ask so before she finishes explaining how can she grant me a blessing I ask her one thing.

"Am i dead really? That's good then"

He sound like relief what happen to him.

"Ahhh, Don't worry about it, because you were given a chance to reset your life?"

She comforts a guy that sound down. 

Then he came back to his normal self.

"Really? Is this the even i reincarnated to another world…"

She is surprised that his attitude easily change.

"What is wrong with him?"

So he just stand up and happy about what is happening to him. He is jumping in joy that he would be reincarnated to the world with magic. 

"What world did you manage then?"

She excited to explain what world she is managing. 

"My world is popular to your world that is filled with magics, and adventures in this world, your life will be in danger a few times but ,?"

Luke realize what she said from the beginning what she is saying. And trembling and afraid to what she said while ago.

"Wait, what did you say in first line?"

She stopped and repeat what she was saying.

"My world is popular to -------"

"Not the one"

"Adventure-----..."

"Next"

"Your life will be endangered few times"

"What do you mean exactly by endangering my life?,am i gonna die again?"

She is wondering because his face became pale and white what she said. He is kneeling about dying is scary. She realizes what she said about earlier. He become down and thinking about what she said.

"Don't worry about it, we will give you a blessing from us so you can survive into dangers"

He became a little bit down and realized the blessing he will receive. 

I awhile their waiting.

One of the angels is walking and approaching them sitting in the seats. 

The paper that hand over to the goddess is a personal information of the guy in front of him. 

"This is?"

She read his personal information in the paper that hand over to her with an angel come down. 

"This is? Is he a follower by that god, this information is normal…?"

She is looking to a guy that excited what the angels bring to them.

"Why did you run away from them?"

He is surprised that question to think she will ask that. 

"I'm not really, run away i been set aside so I just continue to distant myself, i don't want to bother anyone life, I want to enjoy my life to the fullest even if I died, and more importantly I don't remember what caused my death but to think i been given this chance to live"

She is admired what he wants to his life, she understands what he means, she also wants to live like that to herself but because she is a goddess she can't do it. 

"AHH, miss goddess-----"

He is calling her while she stared at him,

"What is it?"

He pointed a box full of decorations of wings of angels and he looking at the hole in the box. But he didn't see but dark inside.

She explains how he can get a gift from god before he reincarnated their are rare gift written in the paper so when he finishes draw a paper he will gave it to her to read it

"Got it, so i need only draw in this box… I'm excited about what it will be"

He put inside the hole his hand and draw a paper in the box. When he got a paper and give it to the goddess her face suddenly pale after she read it. 

"Wait a minute, I'll call someone in the phone"

She picked up her phone in the pocket and dial a number. Its surprising that this realm had a phone communication. 

She distance herself to him because she is talking to someone important. Her reactions and face is suddenly changing when she is talking to someone on the phone, after a while she handed over the phone to me. 

"Hello, We are sorry for the delay this is God"

He suddenly saying he is a god this guy. He sounds like a customer service while talking. 

"Ahh, for the start i'll explain what is in the box of abilities and gifts."

"Wait, abilities and gifts?"

He is wondering what he is talking about but after listening to this guy called God.

"The paper that you pick earlier is nullified and for that we will give you 2 chances to draw again in that box"

"What is written on that paper?"

He ask him casually on the phone curious about written on the paper.

"Do you want to know, Kid?"

He sounds terrifying that he wants to change the subject.

"AHH, Nevermind"

That scared me, so I just hold back and forget what happened.

When I try to pick again in the box, while i was holding the paper on me and draw a second paper. 

"Are you not done yet?"

The god on the phone is still on the phone waiting for him to finish picking in the box. 

"I'm done, picking up so I'll hand it to her"

He is about to give it to her but the phone suddenly float in the air and the paper is floating, the phone turn to video call that he is looking at what he picked. 

"Okay, this is fine for me and as an apology for earlier i will give you also blessing from me without picking in that box"

The phone turn back to see point him because its very bright his face not appearing on the screen of the phone.When he point and the phone is glowing and the light come through him. 

"I'm glowing? Why"

I'm not aware what he give me but this is feels warm in my soul. 

"Don't worry about it just giving you a boost of your all capabilities, protection and I also share a little magical energy to you."

When his done explaining, the paper that I picked is turn into Book, and the second paper I pick is an Eye.

"What is that?"

He just wondering why a book and an eye is in front of him.

"Congratulation you receive

Codex and Eye of Truth."

When the eye entered his left eye, he is surprised  and checking his eye if something changes.

"That is the eye of the legendary sage from ancient when he is past to his life he left it to our care"

The goddess that silent because she scolded by someone when the gift is appear.

He grabbed the book floating in to his side and loom inside it wondering why it is blank.

"Uhmmm, why it is blank?"

The goddess is surprised about because this is not possible to be blank page. 

"Well that book can view status and record, you also see a map in that"

"But it's blank, how can I use this?"

He is panicking about what this book use, for recording and view status. It's like a bigger phone android.

"For the meantime, I'll give you this blessing for you to hide that.This is for apology"

She grab something in the thin air and called a storage magic.  

"Then I leave the explanation to you, I'm busy so take care of him, Lotty"

The phone turn back to him and talk to the goddess. Don't mess up again. He said after it hang up the phone.

When they finish giving him everything for his reincarnation, he stands in the middle of a magic circle that inside the room. 

"Then for your farewell, we hope that you achieve your goal and don't get lost in the right path"

She waved at him and vow to his farewell. 

"Are you fine with that, God without telling him about the blessing you give?"

She call him after his reincarnation.

"Don't worry about it, that is also interesting for someone picked in the box in his first try, Authority Magic. A magic denied all of the rules and right about in the whole universe. Same as an authority to mine, if something bad happens then you need to go down and help him not to lose his path."

He sound like happy about what is that, he remembers that he didn't ask any further about that light came out to him. I'm interested in what path he will choose. 

"Yes, God I'll do what I can to help him"

Her face looked pale and depressed what happen that written on it is accidentally put by her because of her clumsiness she also forgotten to remove it because of paperwork filed on her table. 

After that when i opened my eyes i am holding by someone into their arms. their are my parents that gave birth to me. 

"Are you Okay Luke?"

She smiled at me in the first time I opened my eyes, She is beautiful.

"Luke Borg that is a good name, Honey"

The guy talking to the lady that holding me. He is smiling and happy about that i was born healthy without problems.

I look at the lady that holding me, into her arms beside her is a guy, her husband looking at me. The two of them is Human.

World of Magic

This is the world of magic and sword exists. 

I don't remember when I died, before I meet a goddess, and reincarnated me into another world 

When I was born into this world and meet my new parents here, I was relieved that my parents are normal humans living here at the deep forest.

"Luke are you hungry?"

She holds him and dance to sleep her son that awake. 

My mother is so young and because I had a memory of my past life,  I feel like I had an older sister in this world.

Living in the forest the days is so fast, that I have been here for almost 14 years.

"Hah, no caught in my trap today? These days had less monsters"

Luke is looking in the mountains and wondering if the monster is changing their location in the mountains or their already instincts already. But that is impossible to extinct already. 

While walking in the forest to change the location of the Trap, he made a trap using his knowledge from his previous world.

For me as a reincarnated in this world, for such a boy living here without people I can talk to i able to learn swordsmanship from father, a former adventurer and a simple magic from mother.  

Even i turn to 14 years old they still pampered me, they are really hard to deal with but I don't dislike them, their are good people but sometimes I wonder why mother married my father that beauty of her can make any man fall in love with her. 

But more importantly I'm wondering about they forbid me to use magic, i don't know the reason when I created a small water magic ball they asking me how did i able to cast a magic without chant but their only teach me the fundamental using imagination and chant. 

Then i started to learn by myself, I also had a little sister join me in learning magic they also want to hidden my storage magic and not to tell anyone about it. 

[Master be careful to your left]

"huh?"

When I look at the left there is monster approaching me when i look around the area there was a scratch on the tree this his territory.

"A Berserker Bear, in this forest huh"

When looking at the bear with four arms and standing in front of me to protect his territory.

"I'm sorry for barging here so if possible let me go?"

His attacking suddenly without warning luckily I dodge his attack by jumping side to side while backing to his distance, He use his four arms to attack me and it's like angry that i barge.

"No negotiations huh"

I opened my storage magic to get a weapon given by father.

"Then you will be our dinner tonight"

He was charged with his left foot in front of him, that is the end of the battle because its beheaded beautiful. 

Before asking his father to teach him his swordsmanship.

So i ask him to teach me how to fight but in my previous life I already know to defend myself and i am quite a fighter. So when I ask him to train me using a wooden sword. I was surprised that my father is out of breath, I never though father is weak in sword but why did he swinging his sword. 

"When I try looking at him with my Eye, there is nothing particularly strange but for him to survive in this forest is strange"

I just stop thinking that because their are my parents I believe only to him. 

When i finish my training into sword i try asking mother also teach me to use magic. Because she is using them while doing chores and cleaning. She is using it also for doing laundry and drying the clothes. So it so amazing watching in reality magic. 

My mother said that i have also compatible from magic so she also taught me some basic magic that, actually i am excited to learn magic.

When she taught me how to use magic for the first time I actually manage to cast a fire big like a ball, I almost burned the house because I can't actually know how to control it for the first time i learn it. 

I thought there gonna be afraid about me when they saw how my magic power because my mother can use magic our daily life is easy I always ask her to help her with my magic but she only decline they don't want to me to cause another disaster to the house i stay away and help my father to hunt and learn how to control my magic by myself. 

When mother said about a story of a legend of a heroes and legendary monster that cause a calamity in the world and this legendary heroes is strong that can defeat a mythical beast and demon lords because of them the world is united.

"This is a big catch"

While he is dragging the bear and lift it to his shoulder. Because it's bigger than him, the head of berserker is on the way of the road. He activated his storage magic and throwing it to the magic.

 

At first their surprise when I volunteer hunt substitute to him but their not afraid that i died there. Their only concern about how will i cause a disaster in the forest. 

Their face telling me that it is okay to let this monster out of the cage?

So I just told them that I will not cause the same mistake so i just calmed them. And convinced them not to use magic inside the forest and he will use a trap for hunting and try not to cause damage in the forest. 

Their face telling to me, that is a relief then he is our son after all.

But when I look to my little sister she us the most shock not to cause damage in the forest is he really can do that her facial expression telling to me. 

I just think putting my hand into my waist and decide to change the location of the trap. When I look up at the sky I saw a drumsticks chicken image in the sky and I'll drooling to it. 

"I'll go home for now, I just leave it for tomorrow find a place setting this trap"

While looking up at the sky I sense a presence so familiar to me while I'm heading home. 

"Lhola, i said it's dangerous to following me in the forest"

He look at the tree that hiding by his little sister. His little sister is startled by his word. 

"Uhmmm, welcome home, big bro Luke"

She shows herself in the tree that she is hiding. 

"Big brother Luke Don't play with me so I'm feel lonely"

She is just hiding in the bush because of embarrassing that he find her quickly. 

"Haaah, I'm really sorry, Lhola can you forgive your brother i want also to spend time with you"

But if I do that I can't control myself I hold saying that because she is beautiful and cute who would think she is younger than me but she grew to fast and that body is so alluring. I hold back saying that. 

"We can play some other time I'll promise you"

He calls her go outside to stop hiding and come over here. 

"Really? YEY"

She just grab my arm and escort me even our home is far.

When we arrive at the house we saw father that chopping firewood outside the house. 

When he saw us coming home.

"Hmmm,, welcome back Luke and my beloved daughter"He stopped and about to jump at her but Lhola is hide in my back so he stopped midway. 

"It'll be fine, are you in date ?"

He hangs his head wondering why the two of us together. 

"If we would date i don't bring her at the forest ill bring her to a beautiful view not dangerous for her"Luke walking to pass him.

For Lhola that hold my arm she run to the house and greet mother that she comeback. 

"Hmmm,but you to together so it almost like a date"

He looked at us two like we are a couple, so my eyes just blank and think what he is saying to his son and daughter. 

This world population is small because of people are working as an adventurer they not against in polygamy, they not forbid to marry one of your relatives, but for me as a reincarnated here and had memorirs un the world with large population. Poligamy is rare and marrying one your relative is forbidden. 

"Hey, say something don't look at me like filthy eyes"

He starring me because of my expression looking at him.

"Because father is saying something weird"

I am just back to normal and look away to him.

"What weird did i say"

He is wondering and tilting his head and holding his chin while thinking what is the word he says weird. 

Before

She is not really blood related to us Lhola is lost in the forest alone and we save her by the monster in the forest, 7 years ago when I and father hunting together we found her in the deep forest crying in the woods. She was on the top of the tree because she is chased by a Horn Wolf.

"That little girl is on trouble, but how did she climb in that tree by herself"

While father is thinking of she ended in the top of the tree.

I just jump in the area to help her. While holding my knife. It's a self defensive that I learn from myself. 

 The little girl is still crying while she is on the top of the tree. When shoe myself the wolves change their eyes to me. 

"Father are they also edible? We can have a wolf meats and clothes for winter"

Luke is guard up to them.

So when they are about to attack me, i am coating myself a magical barrier to myself and I cover my knife a vibration magic that can slice them.

So when i killed their leader that had scars to its face, their stop moving and backing off so when they leave the area. 

The little girl is looking at me when the wolf is gone, when she realizes that she is saved. She is about to lose consciousness and fall from the tree. 

"Waaah, watch out"

When I am about to save her with a distance I'm so far that I'll not make in time.

A Strong wind that I feel in my left side, i was about to reach her but so thanks to father that he made in timed. 

So we are relieved that she is not hurt.

When we bring her back to us, in the house mother was so furious that she thought we kidnapped a girl and change our job as bandits.

We explain to her that we didn't kidnapped her. 

We also have brought the Horn Wolf to be evidence that we are not lying to mother.

Encounters

The sun is up and I'm about to wake up because of the noise outside. 

I am Luke Borg because i was reincarnated in this world to have a second live.

This lady in the kitchen is my mother give birth to me Alicia Rose Borg she is my teacher and mother.

She teaches me use magic in the past but now she is now saying that I don't need someone to teach me so i need to learn it by myself. But when I ask father that to teach me how to use my magic he simply became excited about and he is know lot of things about magic than swordsmanship. 

So he also teaches me how can i control magic by different levels and controlling it. Because I had a memory in my past life the two of them like my brother and sister in this world. 

"AHH, I had an idea on this magic transfer an element in the sword a wind attribute"

While concentrating my magic in the morning to transfer it to my sword mother is watching me in the window. 

"Mother, its kinda awkward to be watch"

He simply turn back to her concentrating to add some attribute wind and water. 

"Ohh my, i'm just interested what are you doing"

"Icicle Shot, Icicle Slash and last Icicle Shotgun"

Luke is enjoying himself while doing different attack magic using sword, a triple skill that using a sword. 

"What? is that"

Alicia show an expression that blank and surprise about what he did in magic sword. He simply create a magical item unconscious. 

"Father is that alright?"

When he looks to his father he is fainted by that and surprise even him didn't think about that attack. He appears in his mind is he more genius than him.

So I just left them because their simply fainted what i did. It's almost like the time freeze to them.

My father's name is Pete Allen Borg he is an ordinary to me when I look at him, He love swinging his sword in the morning but to think father is not really suited for swordsman when he teaching me to use magic he is more knowledgeable than mother, but mother is more suitable by holding a sword she also train me using sword fight and having a match to her.

"I'll leave now, i had something to check in the forest"

I leave them after I prepare my hunting gear because their not listening anymore. 

While i'm back to hunt monsters for our dinner. 

"Where should I set a trap in this forest… maybe I'll walk farther away"

While walking randomly in the forest checking the area without territory of monster and marking. 

"If there is magic can search monster in this forest"

That gives me an idea that, to learn how to search in this area. 

[Sense]

This magic is taught by mother to improve my 5 senses.When that magic is activated I sense a lot of monsters in the area and there are many monsters in that direction like their walking together. So to know what monster i sense i get my Codex to see what monster in that place. 

"Hmmm, a giant Boar, what is this ... King Goblins and Queen Goblins, I didn't see anything like that maybe how did they look in the game anyway"

Because of his sense is Sharper like animal Luke smell a blood to that location of goblin. But if their edible monster i can go and hunt them. 

"This is something wrong why a high class goblin is this forest"

So when I look in the other page in my codex there is a people name list in the book. 

"I had a bad feeling about this"

When I see the name i feel like there is happening. 

"Why are people in this forest anyway?"

He is wearing his face mask to cover his mouth, the design of the mask is an evil smile he printed by his magic a black face mask with an evil smile.

When he wears it he pose suddenly and try looking if he suit to him. 

/a protective mask covering the nose and mouth or nose and eyes./

"Ahh, i forgot i need to go there"

He suddenly jump at the tree and make a force to kick the wind and make him faster by kicking the air. So its like bouncing in the balloon to make him so fast to travel. 

When i saw them surrounded by hordes of monsters hobgoblin and one by one a person name vanish in my book.

"Hmmmm, I need to go have faster, or it will be too late"

Because i'm curious what happening in their i just decide to get close to the location where i sense the battle.

[Acceleration]

This technique is taught by father it a martial arts that speed your movement. There are different kinds of Martial Art Technique but this one is the most suitable to go quickly in that area. 

So when i use it i just hurry to go there that i feel the wind in my face the speed and wind pressure is blocking my sight.

[Wind Barrier]

[Silent Walk]

Silent walk is one of my techniques created by me because I love a ninja in my previous world i just try to learn it because its looks cool to do it to move quietly for hunting a monster that can detect a presence but if i use this there's no sign of movement and sound for that it easy to hunt some monster. 

In the deep forest,

"Captain there are no end of this lot of monster gathering in this area because of the blood of our comrade"

Their so exhausted and desperate fighting the monster.

"Don't frightened we are gonna protect this area"

I am the commander of this squad, this is the first time that I deal with a lot of monsters like this but if we retreat their gonna catch her highness so for her sake we gonna protect this until they got away.

I raised my sword to raise the spirit of my comrades.

"Hang in there if we survived we are gonna drink to our hearts content and treat you all"

I just lie to raise their spirit but their show more spirit than me. 

"Haha, captain we know that we can't survive in this battle but even if its you we proudly offer our life"

"uh-huh captains is so bossy under this circumstance but I don't hate it."

"Yeah, we are gonna survive in this battle and drink"

Their high spirits even without it, so for better or worse we are fighting for our lives.

in the carriage that running.

"Why are we running leaving them behind?"

The princess is shouting and panicking about their soldier is left behind and their also goblins that riding in the boar following them. 

The one holding the leash of the horse is in hurry to save their princess away from them. 

"It's no use princess even if we go back we hinder and slow them down"

"Princess don't waste their effort for us, even though we fight them we can't survive"

The attendant of the princess is holding her not to jump in to the carriage their riding while their running away from their followers. 

She just saying go back and try to jump in the window of the carriage. While she is trying to jump she saw a boy the same age as him running in the direction of the soldier they left. 

"Who is that guy?, wait that is dangerous"

In the moment they meet their eyes the goblins that following them is gone. 

Because the carriage is fast she saw only a guy in the front of the goblins and gone. 

I was on the run when i saw a Carriage running away from the location.

"Who is that Girl going in here? our eyes meet that is impossible she saw me in that"

Luke ignored what happen while he disposed the body of many goblins following them, he get the boar to his storage magic to collect them as food stock.

"Where are the goblins following us?"

She is looking right at the back of the carriage there are no goblins following them anymore...

The people in the carriage check the back of the carriage there are no sounds and following them anymore.

"Let's go back, we need to go to our soldier"

Why i had a feeling their been saved by that guy. 

She is suddenly calm down and back to being princess. 

Her servant is surprise that she calm down but ordering them to go back, but when they see her eyes they can't disobey the princess order at this rate. 

"Roger that, we are gonna turn back"

When they turn back at the road and go back to their soldiers. They also calm down and believe in the princess.

"I see a guy that save us"

The princess saying that while looking at the floor, she also thought that is imagination but when they passed the goblin corpse they believe her suddenly. 

"Hang in there, I'll come back to you"

Luke is running inside the forest not in the road for his camouflage.

"What is this people doing here?"

I arrive in the area that I sense there are people fighting the hobgoblins riding a giant boar. 

Because of their desperation for survival their so exhausted not doing a plan. Their are people can use magic in them but their only supporting them with magic. 

"their so exhausted are they gonna be fine?"

Luke is hiding in the bush while watching them fighting a large amount of goblins. His eyes are glowing because he uses his gift to check their status.

Look is so worrying the people fighting the goblins he is just surprise that their barely matching their battle to them. 

"Geez this guys is no good huh their gonna die ----huh Die?"Luke is worrying them and he is sweating a lot what will he do to save them without noticing him. 

"If I don't do something it will be too late to save this guys. This is a pain in the head, we'll whatever" 

So He decided to help them fight a large pack monster is a problem without a plan but for me there are no plans because if i think and late for a second their gonna die. 

[Acceleration]

[Silent Walk]

"First is to let them know their in danger by killing their leader"

He just raise the sword in my head while looking at the leader. While he was aiming for the Goblins King, I swing a sword to cut his head using wind magic to my sword. 

"Second is for killing their queen that their us the next to be hunted by showing myself to the goblins"

The queen that panicking, that his king died while she not notice me, I jump in her head and stab the goblin queen between her eyes. The queen down to the ground and the other goblins is starting to look to me in the throne their carrying. 

"Captain the goblin is acting weird"

Their stopped also because of the sound of the drum sound coming from the distance and start to go back to their location. 

"I know, maybe something happen to their leader"

This people is surprise that goblins are retreating from them. 

"What should we do captain?"

Their looking at their captain because of happening and waiting to his order what will they do. 

"We are gonna follow them and finish them their will be casualty if we leave them, follow me"

The captain order them to follow him while he us the one that charge in the frontier. 

"Now what their called their other goblins maybe their safe now"

Luke is thinking while holding his chin. Because of their eyes looking at him with killing intent he will not be run from them easy. 

For the soldier that slaying the goblins that retreating, he thinks their will be a trouble if he encounters them.
