Ben, a 25 y.o man, ex-elite soldier is seen in a prison cell now. He's imprisoned since last week, and now is his last day. It's not only his last day in prison, but also on Earth, because he will be executed today.
Ben get imprisoned for mass killing of a biker gang. Those bikers are responsible for murdering Ben's family. They killed his parents & little brother just because his brother was overtaking them with his own bike.
Those bikers didn't accept anyone to be faster than them. They chase Ben's little brother, Jack until he got home. They confront Jack, and Jack apologized to them in hope that it will be over fast. Jack was riding fast because he want to take his sick father to the hospital.
But even after Jack apologized, the gang still didn't forgave him. Then, they start to make a ruckus and breaking things in the house. They even start to beating up Jack & his parents, until they died.
Ben was shocked when he heard the news. He immediately returned from his military camp. Luckily he's not on a mission, so at least he can return for his family's funeral. Ben was so devastated by this sudden tragedy, and vowed to get the gang into justice.
However, justice turned into a joke for him & his family. Police only arrested 5 people from the total of 34 people in the gang. Even worse, their punishments are just 15 years of prison. Of course Ben didn't accept this and decide to bring his own justice to them.
Ben take a break from his job, and prepare his revenge. As an elite soldier, Ben know what he need to do to make his revenge finish fast before police sniff it and stop him. He know the consequences, but he will still do it. His family is everything to him, and some people have destroy it, so he won't stay silent.
Some days after that, the bikers have a meeting in an empty building. Ben also came there and hide while waiting for them to arrived. Then when they all gathered, Ben immediately barge in and bombard them with hot bullets from his riffle.
The unsuspecting bikers couldn't do anything and were killed immediately. It didn't take long for Ben to get arrested for this, and he didn't resist too. This was also a part of his plan, which he have prepared.
Ben was given death sentence for killing civilians as he was a military soldier. He was also stripped from his rank immediately after that. Even so, his military comrades & superiors still symphatize with him and agree to gave him one help.
Ben asked to be put in the same prison as the other 5 bikers. His superiors know what Ben want to do, but they still agree. They used their power to make Ben get in the same prison as the other 5 bikers before his execution, and they succeed.
After he get in the prison, Ben act fast to get the 5 bikers. He paid some prisoners to catch the 5 and bring them to him. He have a lot of money from his family heritage & pay as a soldier. Those money will be useless anyway, as he will die, and he didn't have any relatives that can use those money, so he use it for his revenge.
Soon, the 5 got caught and brought to Ben who wait in the shower room. Ben didn't wait and immediately beat them up there. As an elite soldier, Ben's strength was no joke, and his techniques are top notch. He know where his attack will kill them and give them much pain.
Ben succeed to kill them in his 1st day in prison, and because of that, his execution time was hastened. He was initially have 1 month in prison before his execution, but after he killed 5 mens in prison, it's hastened into 1 week, and now is his last day.
"Ben Cooper, it's your time."-Warden
Ben follow the warden without saying anything. He arrive in the execution room that already have some executors there. His punishment is to be shot on his heart with one deadly shot.
Ben look around and see the families of the bikers there. He didn't feel bad for them, because they also didn't feel bad for his family. Ben look at them and smirk, make those people roar in anger.
"QUIET!"-Chief Warden
*BANG*
The warden shot his pistol to the air to silence the audience. They got silent, and soon, the execution procedure started.
"Ben Cooper, did you have any last words?"-Chief Warden
"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and a life for a life. They kill my family, so i kill them, and now you'll see me getting killed, didn't we make it fair now? Or do you want to kill me yourself? If so, then come here!"-Ben grin
Ben taunt the families of deceased bikers and make them angry again. They all roar in rage and try to get into the execution platform. Ben just grin and feel satisfied. These family members tried really hard to protect those killers before, so Ben also have some grudge to them.
"HAHAHAHA, PROVOKED OVER SOME WORDS, AS I THOUGHT FROM PEOPLE WHO TRY TO PROTECT KILLERS LIKE YOU."-Ben laugh maniacally
"ENOUGH! START THE EXECUTION, NOW!"-Chief
*BANG*
A bullet is shot to Ben's heart, and kill him instantly. But Ben's face is full of pride and satisfaction. He died after he succeed to kill all his family's killers. Altough he can't bring his family back, but at least he gave them the justice they need.
~Earthland, Date 7, Month 7, Year 777~
Ben suddenly wake up in a jungle. He gasped and breath franctically.
"I'm alive? But how? And where is this?"-Ben
Ben look around and see trees, trees everywhere. He stand up, but he feel that his body is strange. He look at his body that visibly a lot shorter, and smaller.
"Huh? A kid? I'm a kid? No way, i must be hallucinating, or maybe this is a dream? Yeah, that must be it."-Ben
Ben slap his cheek, and it hurts, now he's not sure wether this is a dream or not. Then suddenly, a blue screen appear in front of him.
[Name: Ben Cooper
Age: 10
Status: Alive
MP: 2000
Strength (STR): 20
Agility (AGI) : 20
Stamina (STA) : 20
Intelligence (INT): 20]
"What the- Is this like that VR technology? Am i using a VR right now?"-Ben
[No, this is a real life, and you are not hallucinating nor dreaming.]
"WHOA!"-Ben startled and get into fighting possition
Suddenly Ben hear a female voice in his head. He's startled and get into a fighting position reflexively. This is the result of his years of training in military.
[Do not worry, i am not your enemy. Even if i am one, you won't be able to touch me, as i am in your head, to be precise, i am in your soul.]
"You are this blue thingy's sound?"-Ben
[Yes, i am your new life's assistant, A.I Chip]
"Huh? New life?"-Ben
[Yes, you were dead, and now you get a chance to live a new life in this Magic World.]
A.I Chip explain that Ben was choosen randomly by the Gods. Every once in a while, God will pick random dead soul to be their test subject. So it can be said that Ben is a guinea pig now.
"What kind of test?"-Ben get wary
[It's more of an observation rather than a test. Gods want to know human's behaviour if they are to be given a new life in different world, with different kind of perks.]
"Perks?"-Ben
[Yes, you are chosen to have an A.I Chip as your perks. Other soul might get a system of different types, or other kind of power or item that will help them in their new life. All those perks will be unique to them in their new world.]
"What world is this?"-Ben
[Earthland]
"Fairy Tail? So this is an anime world, huh? Good thing i watched this because my brother always forced me to watched his anime collection with him, and this is one of them."-Ben
[I'm glad that you know one or two things about this world now.]
"Damn you're right. How many people that were sent to this world?"-Ben
[Only you. Every test subject will be sent to different world, so there will only be 1 person per world. The same world will only get a new person when the previous person die.]
"Okay. So i can do what i want, right? I mean they just want to see my behaviour."-Ben
[Yes, some people even done attrocities, while the others done very good deeds. Some didn't do anything and just enjoy slow life even with their great power. Gods never interferred with their life and only watch.]
"Hmm, so everyone really do what they wanted, huh?"-Ben
[Yes, and you can do the same. Did you have another question?]
"I guess not for now."-Ben
[Then, are you agree to this experiment? If you agree, then i will erase our conversation from your memory and let you continue your life. I will also erase all your knowledge about this place, so you'll start from zero. If you disagree, the Gods will take you back to afterlife.]
"Wait! Why would you erase my memory?"-Ben
[So that you won't act differently after knowing that you are being watched. You'll also gain massive advantage if you know about the future, so your knowledge of this world will be erased. I will only let you know about A.I Chip, and some basic knowledge of this world.]
"Damn, that's not a good news for me, but i want to live once more, so i'll agree. My parents & brothers can have their peace, and i will search mine."-Ben
[Understood, thank you for your participation.]
Suddenly Ben feel a massive headache and he clutch his head. Then he faint because of the pain and wake up shortly after that. When he wake up, he just remember that he have a new life as a 10 y.o, a few things about this world and that he have an A.I Chip now.
"This world is a Magic World, huh? That means that this place is a lot more dangerous than Earth. I need to gain power so i will survive in this world. A.I Chip, did you have something that can help me gain power?"-Ben
[Yes, you were given Sun Dragon Slayer Magic.]
Sun Dragon Slayer Magic, a dragon slayer magic that utilize the power of Sun. It can utilize all force of the Sun itself, which is one of the hardest Dragon Slayer Magic to learn and master.
"So it's like Escanor's magic. Then, will i get buffed at day, and wrinkled at night like Escanor?"-Ben
[No, you will only have problem to replenish your magic power because you can't eat sunlight.]
"That's a relief. What about my physical power?"-Ben
[You are currently 2x stronger than average 10 y.o Dragon Slayer. You have high potential to grow as a Dragon Slayer, but it still depend on your hard work.]
"Okay then."-Ben
Ben didn't immediately get excited and try to think about his situation first. He realize that he might have a 'nuclear weapon' in his arsenal now, but he need to be able to use it correctly. He haven't able to use it, so getting excited now is useless.
"Before i even think of getting very strong, i need to make sure that i live past today. I am in the woods, and it must be dangerous. I don't have anything too, so i must focus on survival first before even thinking of being a strong mage."-Ben
Ben set his current prioritize is to survive and leave this forest. He will use his skills as an ex-elite soldier here.
"New life, here i come."-Ben grin
