Theo had always been a hard-working salaryman. He spent most of his days in his office, crunching numbers and staring at his computer screen. It was a dull and monotonous life, but it paid the bills and put food on the table.
One day, while at work, Theo felt a sharp pain in his chest. He clutched at his chest, gasping for breath. His coworkers rushed to his aid, but it was too late. Theo collapsed onto the floor, his heart having given out.
The next thing Theo knew, he was standing in a field of tall grass. He looked around, confused and disoriented. He didn't remember where he was or how he had gotten there.
Suddenly, a voice spoke to him. "Welcome to the magical world of Arin," it said. "You have been reincarnated here after dying in your previous life."
Theo's mind reeled. Reincarnation? A magical world? It all seemed too fantastical to be real. But as he looked around, he realized that he was no longer in the world he had known. This was a different place, with vibrant colors and strange creatures he had never seen before.
The voice spoke again. "In this world, magic exists and it is your job to master it. Your previous life's skills and knowledge will still be with you, but you will have to start from scratch in terms of magical ability."
Theo looked down at his hands, still trying to process the situation. He felt a strange sensation in his body, as if something inside him was awakening.
"The first step to becoming a magic user is to awaken your magical affinity," the voice continued. "Every person in this world has an innate magical affinity, which determines what type of magic they can use. Focus on your emotions and try to sense which affinity you have."
Theo closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm his racing thoughts. He focused on his emotions, trying to sense something within him. After a few moments, he felt a warm sensation in his chest. It felt like a flame, burning bright and steady.
"Fire," Theo whispered, opening his eyes. He had discovered his magical affinity.
"Now that you have discovered your magical affinity, it's time to learn how to control it," the voice said. "There are many ways to use magic, but the most common is through spells. Focus on your magical affinity and try to cast a simple fire spell."
Theo closed his eyes again and focused on the warm sensation in his chest. He imagined a small flame in front of him, and whispered a simple incantation. Suddenly, a burst of flame appeared in front of him, burning brightly before disappearing.
Theo's eyes widened in amazement. He had cast his first spell.
"Good job," the voice said. "You have taken your first steps towards becoming a magic user in this world. But remember, magic is a powerful tool and must be used responsibly. There are dangers and consequences to using it recklessly. Now, it's time for you to explore this world and discover all that it has to offer."
Theo looked around at the colorful landscape, his heart racing with excitement. He didn't know what the future held, but he was ready to embrace this new life and all of its magical wonders.
