章 3: A Beautiful Woman
I can't wait for my first day of school! Will I make a lot of friends? Will I become popular? Maybe a girl from my class will even confess her feelings to me behind the school at dismissal! Ahh, I hope it turns out like that.
As evening fell, my family and I gathered around the dinner table. Ellora, as usual, excitedly shared stories about her day at school. She's in third grade now, and once I join, I'll be her junior.
"And then, the teacher who was teaching that class came in and pinched the ear of the kid who was sleeping—haha!" Ellora laughed, recounting the moment with a big grin.
Mom gave her a gentle but firm look. "Ellora, don't talk with your mouth full. Chew your food first."
Dad chuckled, clearly amused by the story. "Well, that's how teachers should handle things. Tough love, right?"
"Dad! Don't encourage her!" Mom scolded, but her smile softened the reprimand. When Mom gets serious, even Dad has to back down.
Dad turned to me, his tone playful. "But Arche is going to school soon too. It's fine to have some fun moments like this."
"Oh, right!" Mom said, her eyes on me now. "Arche, get ready to start school tomorrow. Don't be nervous, okay?"
"Okayyy," I replied, my mouth full of dinner, trying to act casual.
These peaceful moments, sitting around the table with my family, are everything I could've wished for. This life is a world away from the one I had before. Back then, my mom died when I was just a kid, and my dad spiraled into a mess. He'd come home drunk, barely able to stand, and worse, he'd get involved with women who made my skin crawl. I locked myself away, becoming a hopeless shut-in, a NEET with no future.
But now? Now I get to experience something I never thought possible. A normal life. A loving family. It's more than just happiness—it's a blessing.
I'm so grateful for these moments. For this peace. I hope it never ends.

That night, just like usual, was spent listening to stories from Sis Ellora about school, even though Dad works from morning until evening doesn't he get tired? Truly an inspiration.
I usually spend my time playing on my smartphone to read information related to history from 2000 years ago.
Just like Sis Ellora, even though she always looks sleepy and has that lazy face, she's actually a genius, in fact she's the only person in the world who I think still wants to read books.
Many books that kids usually shouldn't like are stored in her closet.
Could it be that she's also a reincarnator like me?
While thinking about all this, I suddenly felt a bit bored...
I don't know why, but I have this urge to breathe in some fresh air tonight, maybe I'll just take a short walk outside and enjoy the beautiful night illuminated by colorful holographic lights on the streets.
Coincidentally, my house is situated at the corner of the city, so at night there aren't many people passing through around here, but that's exactly what makes the night even more beautiful.
Then I saw someone standing near one of the buildings around my house. The building was only three stories high, so I could still make out the person's shape, but since there was no light shining on them, it was just a silhouette. Still, I felt like they were staring at me.
Who are they? Why are they standing on the roof of that building? What's their purpose? It's really strange to see someone standing there at this hour, letting their cloak be blown by the wind like that. It seemed like they were gazing straight ahead, facing the alley right in front of them. I'm going to check it out and see what they've been looking at all this time.
As I walked toward the alley.
"Don't... go... there...."
"Huh! Who's there?!" I said tensely.
I heard a faint voice behind me, but when I turned around, there was nobody there.
So strange, and I noticed that the black silhouette on the third-floor building had vanished too.
What the hell happened here? Why did it just disappear like that?
What really is in this narrow alley?
Don't go there? Now I'm even more curious because of that warning, you know!
I slowly started to step into the darkness of the alley and activated my invisibility spell.
"Stealth"
Although this magic only lasts a few minutes, it's enough to hide my presence. I learned to use it when I was little, spending my time just learning magic, and luckily, I have the ability to control magic atoms. Not many people in this world can accurately control magic atoms, only those truly gifted can use magic.
I activate this Stealth Magic by controlling a number of magic atoms around me, then I change their composition to the opposite, transforming them into a sort of flexible mirror that camouflages my body and the things around me. It's pretty simple.
But for someone without the talent for controlling magic atoms, this is actually impossible.
I approached them and how shocked I was to find 2 guys overpowering a defenseless woman, and the woman was naked!
She must need a true hero right now, those perverted scumbags! I'm going to punish you instead of that big-chested angel.
Hopefully, after this, the woman will fall in love with me, alright! My spring break life is about to start now!
"Hey! you there!"
I saw them turn around and look at me with surprise.
They didn't seem like perverted people at all, in fact, they were fully geared up in military uniforms, this is serious!
Aaaah, I'll just use a barrier spell to deflect their bullets and then I'll incapacitate them. I won't kill these people since they look like government agents.
"Incapacitate him! There can't be any witnesses!"
"Understood!"
"Wall."
I deliberately whispered my spell to look cool, so it seemed like the magic just happened on its own without me even giving a command, hehe.
"Get him! Use the anti-magic weapons!"
So slow, I already stuck a needle on your helmets, good thing you guys are wearing steel gear, so it was easy for me to zap you.
I infused the magic atom into the needle, then transformed it into a small amount of electricity and hooked it all the way to their feet, pretty simple.
Right after that, they got zapped and fell, their bodies releasing smoke.
Then I walked over to the woman.
And dayuuum! Her body made me unable to blink, she's definitely a model, man. My pants are seriously getting tight, I guess this woman have to take responsibility.
"Are you saving me?"
The woman stared at me for a moment, then began to speak hesitantly, oh please don't look at me like that, miss, I'm not some weird guy trying to assault you, I'm a good person, I'm the hero of truth saving women from creepy uncles!
"Yes, miss, I came to save you, now let's go home,"
I knelt in front of this sexy girl and extended my right hand, but seriously, my body moved on its own, maybe this is what they call a man's reflex to a beautiful woman.
"Th-thank you," she replied shyly.
Oh, my God, I want to bite her cheek while she's covering her sexy body.
Ah, I have to show politeness here.
"Come on, I'll take you to my house, beautiful lady,"
"Eh, y-you dont need to, and I'm not beautiful..."
Yeah, it's true, you're not beautiful, but you are stunningly gorgeous! I'll even gonna do anything for you!
"It's all right, ma'am, I'll guarantee your safety, just calm down and let me handle everything."
"Uh, well, thank you ummm..."
"Oh, I'm sorry, my name is Archemidas Evernoir, just call me Arche but I wish you would call me sweetheart, I live around here."
"Ah, emm my name... I'm Echo."
Echo huh, I will engrave your beautiful name in my heart for the rest of my life, ah youth is so delicious.
"All right, Miss Echo, let's go straight to my house."
The woman nodded slowly towards me, that's pretty cute, not gonna lie.
But my sister Ellora, doesn't fall short of this woman, well for now I'm going to take her to my house and take care of her.
***
Then when we got home...
"Mommy!!! Arche brought a naked woman home!"
All of a sudden Ellora yelled so loudly inside the house, even to sound clearly outside.
I just saw the silhouette of somebody behind the window, maybe it was Ellora, ah the fucking whole house is going to suspect me now!
Yeah, this is the worst! A man takes an undressed woman into his own house! If I'd been a fat and ugly oldman, I might have been on the R18 comic books right now.
"Oh my God, Arche, where have you been? Who is she?"
The first one to open the door was my mother, yeah, it's natural that she was so surprised but I didn't think she was the first to open it, I think dad would be the first and then he would beat me right in front of this house.
"Ummm... yeah, it's a long story, mom, I'll explain it."
"Please take care of this woman first, mom, please."
My mother seemed confused for a moment but she immediately approached and helped me bring Echo.
"You'll definitely explain everything in detail, you hear that Arche!!"
"All right mom!!"
My mother's eyes pointed out when she said it, and I was trembling with fear, I took this woman with my mother into our house and then my mother handed it over to Sis El to give her clothes in her room.
It's so freaking awkward!
There're three people sitting face to face in this room, three of them are very close to each other even facing each other, I'm really uncomfortable.
The terrible atmosphere in this family room is killing me, I know I'm going through a family trial right now.
Everyone's looking at me with different faces, some people look at me angrily and some people stare at me furiously.
Then someone finally spoke breaking the silence that overwhelmed it.
"A man with a woman at night, then the woman was naked and hung up to his house, hmmm..."
"..."
That's my father's word, it's incredible the cops of these days are very calm even in situations like this, my father please save me from mom and Sister El.
"Really, I didn't think Arche could do that, he was a kid, and I watched him with his the internet, but that's what happened..."
"M-Mom please don't misunderstan-."
"Silence Arche! There's no reason whatsoever, the evidence is already in your sister's room, now she's being taken care of by your sister!"
"Yes mom!"
I can only surrender now, it seems that this family trial will not be in my favor, my mother as a judge will not listen to my words, she even misunderstood.
"But if you think about it, Arche wouldn't do something like that, look at him he's still a kid."
Nice father! I'll rely on you as the wise head of the family! Please straighten out mom's misunderstandings that are far from the truth!
" It has nothing to do with it! All men are immoral! Aaaah now we have to go to the girl's house and apologize to her parents, what if the girl's parents ask for responsibility?"
"Please calm down mom, it won't go that far, calm down."
My father tried to calm my mother down, but she kept rubbing her head in panic and mumbling sentences I didn't understand.
Then at this crucial moment a hero of truth appeared who would save me, yes it was El who had just come out of her room!
" She's done!"
Wooh! Finally the truth will be revealed and this family court will be on my side, I'm counting on you foreign woman that I saved!
Of course we immediately rushed to El's room, where she was being treated.
I saw her sitting there on El's bed and she was wearing the pajama shirt that El used to wear, was it the right size? Isn't she a bit bigger than El?
"My name is Echo, thank you so much for taking care of me uncle, auntie Evernoir."
Wooh, she was quite polite too, she even stood up and bowed to all of us.
"Then, once again thank you very much for saving me, Archemidas Evernoir."
"Saved?"
My mother, father and sister tilted their heads in a similar manner as if they were confused.
"Well then, let me explain everything first."
Then I explained what actually happened, I saw that woman in a narrow alley in the corner of the city like she was about to be raped, then I saved her by making those freaks faint from electrocution and finally I brought Echo to this house.
"Then, how did you get there, Echo?"
The one who asked that question was El, it was only natural that she was curious, because I also really wanted to know why she could be there naked and like she was about to be raped by strange men in intel uniforms.
"I was going to tell you, but I'm forgetting some of my memories right now."
"Actually, I'm not human. I'm an android," she continued.
