After the darkness in my eyes disappeared, I realized I was in a white room...
"Ehto... So that's life after death ?."
I ask myself while I tremble lightly.
"I would like to say yes... But unfortunately no, that's not the afterlife yet."
As I struggled mentally, the voice of a majestic being echoes in the blank. It sounded like the voice was speaking next to my ear, something that made me shake and take a few steps back.
"H----i---hiii---hi?."
With a strange voice that I didn't think could be reproduced by me, I look around desperately, searching for the being whose was the origin of the majestic voice. I didn't have to look much, because right behind me was the being, whose characteristics I couldn't distinguish, and remembering her voice, even she was indistinguishable. The being I was looking at, was totally white, I could easily let it pass as if it was just another part of this room if it wasn't for the fact that the being was in front of me.
"Eh-Ehto.... If I were to guess, you would be a god?
I ask myself after calming down a little and remembering the various fanfictions I read, I can see that this was just another cliche, but it was the only thing I could think of at the now.
"Hum..... You can say that..... Leaving such things aside, I don't have that much time, so I'll give you a quick explanation".
Says the majestic being, that I didn't have the courage to ask the name, and that he didn't give the name either, so I'd probably refer to being as a god.
"As you noticed, you, Mr. Kotarou have just died run over by a truck. Normally after that, you should be taken to the cycle of reincarnation, but your case ends up being a little special. This is all I could say to you. Of course, because you died, even because of this error, you should enter the cycle of reincarnation normally, after the problem is solved, but you ended up being removed from the cycle of reincarnation, and that ended up causing more problems".
Says the majestic gentleman of whom I cannot recognize gender. I try to keep as much calm as my mind allows, which is not easy because my whole body was shaking.
"Cof, cof....... So what will happen to me?"
I say with the fear inhibiting my voice.
"Before you died, you felt sorry for something specific, if I remember it was not being able to see the end of One Piece, right?
"Yes....."
I answer the question of being.
"Because of this desire, your soul was programmed to be reincarnated in the world of One Piece. And before you ask, yes, One Piece's world exists".
The majestic being answers. And seeing how he saw my face eager to ask him, it seemed that the being answered to avoid any waste of time, so I close my mouth and let him continue.
"Because of the facts I quoted, your only choice will be to reincarnate into One Piece's world in an Illegal way, not only not to affect you, but also not to affect the system".
I concluded the being, who looked at me with the neutral face he seems to have since I found him.
Taking a deep breath to calm down again, I think to myself.
To reincarnate in One Piece's world is not the worst thing, of course, as much as I love him, real life would be something very different, and the things that happen in One Piece are quite cruel too.... But let's ask to be sure.
"I'd like to ask two things..."
I say after I calm down.
"Go ahead."
Answer the being, which I called god.
"First, what will happen if I don't want to be reincarnated."
I ask the being.
"As I quoted above, if you don't reincarnate, it will cause problems for you and the system, the problem in the system is something easy to fix, but the problem for you is not. If you don't reincarnate, your reincarnation cycle will stay in One Piece's world forever, and you will live in the state you are in until the day you disappear forever... That would be "true" death.
Swallowing it dry, I decide that this is not a choice I will choose.
"Cohum.... My second question, what is this illegal means?"
I ask in the hope that this one won't be even worse than the first.
"Illegal reincarnation would be the medium we call Transmigration."
My eyes were glowing with this, whoever reads fanfiction would surely be excited by this idea, because normally this would mean "wishes". But before I can ask the being, he answers what I thought.
"As I said, it's illegal, but in your case, it was because of an error, because of that I will allow a request. And that will be a request, it may not be carried out."
Says the being, still with the usual neutral face.
His answer was like a bucket of cold water thrown at the head ... It could not extremely overpower right away ... And on top of that, I have a request, which can be refused ... Although I already know what I'm going to do asking, is still disheartening. I take a deep breath for the last time.
"My order will be ..."
Huhu, Author here. Second chapter, posting right after the first, I understand that the chapters are small and the quality is still desirable, but these are things that I hope to improve over time. Was this second chapter confusing? If need to, I can redo it. I said in the last chapter that this chapter would be in the world of One Piece, but .... I miscalculated ;---; forgive me. >. <
