Accidental Accident

Gaining consciousness in a room of light, Reggie realize he just died.

"Dammit! How could this happen to me when I just started my job?"

At the age of 20, Reggie worked for a telecom company and it was his first day in the field. And as far as he can remember, he was doing some check ups when he started falling to the ground.

While trying to figure out what to do or where he was, a soft, gentle voice was heard.

"Hey kiddo! I apologize for what happened to you. You're not supposed to be the one to be sent here, it should have been your team leader Keith instead.But things didn't go as planned and so, here you are."

Surprised by what he just heard, he cant help but blurted out.

"Wait! You said Big bro Keith was suppose to have died instead of me? Brother Keith is the kindest and nicest person, why does he have to die? Knowing I exchange my life for his makes it bearable even for a bit."

"Yes, Keith is indeed one of the kindest and nicest human being I've seen. Which is why he was given a chance to transmigrate and live a better life. And unfortunately, you've taken his chance to transmigrate, and the option left for him is to reincarnate."

Puzzled, Reggie asked.

"Reincarnate? Isn't he still alive?"

The voice sighed, and took a deep breath, seems to be ready for a long explanation.

"He is alive, but not for long. Keith will die in about month. The plan was to send him to a different world with his memories intact if he choose to keep it. Now both options are impossible. Instead, I've decided that he'll reincarnate in the royal family and live a life better than what he hoped for. But without his memories of course. As for you, due to an accident, you we're sent here by mistake."

Reggie also took a deep breath, stared blanky in front. Hearing what the voice just said, he felt sorry for Keith, but happy as well. Then he muttered.

"So what happens to me now?"

" You'll be transmigrated to a different world."

Having watched animes, read novels and manga. Reggie shook his head.

"And hereI thought truck kun is the key to transmigration."

The voice chuckled and said

"The thing is, you fell because the truck that was supposed to hit Keith, Hit the pole you've climbed which is why you fell. You being here is just an accidental accident. Oh and by the way, your original body is still alive."

If he was still in his body, Reggie would have fainted by this revelation. Feeling frustrated, annoyed and scared at the same time, he wanted to scream but he couldn't. He wanted to cry but he can't. He tried to calm himself, but to no avail. Again, he could only stare blankly but no words came out.

"So heres the deal. For the time being, you'll be transmigrated to the world known as Miradol. A planet of 5 times bigger than the size of Earth. Everything there is almost the same as what you had on Earth, except, Miradol isn't as technologically advanced. You'll live there until you pass away, and then you can return to your original body."

Another surprising revelation, and he just couldn't think of anything, a few breaths later he ask.

"Wouldn't my original body be dead too by that time?"

"No, 1 year in Miradol is only a week on Earth."

For the first time after coming here, Reggie showed a genuine smile and ask enthusiastically

"Thats great! So even if I spend 80 years in this Miradol place, its only going to be, uhm, lets see" He tried to calculate, but due to his excitement, he failed to do so.

"I'll try it later, but for sure its not over 5 years on Earth." Then he ask, "By the way, Just who are you? Are you God?"

The voice laugh,

"Finally! I thought you'd never ask. I am indeed A God. One of the many. As for me, I am the God of Miradol. As for who I am, They call me Mythos." a short pause, then the voice continued

"Ok, it is almost time. I need to send you on your way. I'll be seeing you again in the future so theres no need to worry and live a life you want in an exciting new world. Go now!"

As the voice said this, Reggie started losing consciousness again. And before he did he shouted out

"Wait! Do I get a cheat? a system or something! What type would it be?"

Fascinated by this question, Mythos chuckled and said

"I guess its fine, I'll bless you with a system to help you out. As for what it is, Its gonna be random."

Then Reggie lose consciousness. He didn't know for how long. But when he opened his eyes, the first thing he sees was an almost empty room, cracked wooden walls with some holes in it. An open window, a small old cabinet and a creaking bed he's lying on. All of a sudden, memories of the previous body owner started merging with his, which cause him some headache. As he was looking through the memories, the door was slammed opened and two people came in. The first one, a man aged between 50 to 60, and the other one a litte girl around 10 years old.These are his little sister, Sheena and their neighbor uncle Vin. Just as both entered, they saw Reggie awake, Sheena started screaming and crying.

"Big brother!!! I thought you died! I thought your dead! Huhuhu!"

Sheena was histerical and shaking while she hug his brother.

Uncle Vin, slowly walked to the bed side and ask.

" How are you feeling Harry?"

Then it hit him! His name is Harry in this world. It took a few seconds before he could mutter a reply

"I"m feeling weak. But mostly, I think I'm fine now."

as he delve into his memory, he found out that this body has been sick for a week now. And succumbed to the illnes and thats when he came in. He look at the two strangers in front of him, and couldn't help but think.

'I may not know you both, but this body knows that you two are the closest to me in this world. And I promise to make sure to give you a life better than what we have now.'
