1.Reborn!?

Five Man in a uniform of a bodyguard were standing behind a middle-aged man on the terrace of the highest building of this city. The bodyguard's had guns with alive bullets in their hands, and the guns are pointed towards the man standing near the railings in black coat. Then the middle-aged man spoke loudly:

"To think the great chairman of the biggest game company in the world will be reduced to such a helpless state! Life is really something!" 

"So, how do you want to die Mr. chairman or should I say the previous chairman, Hahahaha...."

"Should I kill you with guns or by throwing down the building. Hahahaha...."

"If only you had acknowledged your defeat before I took over your company, you would not had to face this, I also wanted to kill your family but it's a regret you don't have a family in the first place. No one will cry on your death! such a miserable fate!"

The middle-aged man shook his head with great regret on his face, he was really in a good mood today, after so many years of work he finally had taken down his life-long enemy. From now on he can develope his company without any problems or worry about competition. The whole market for games will be dominated by his company now. His dream is finally coming true. A huge sinister smile appeared on his face and he started to laugh maniacally. But then as if pouring cold water on his head, the man in the black coat made his mind go blank.

A huge grin was plastered on the man's face and he was looking like someone who had already gone to madness. His eyes was already bloodshot and a smile was covering his face. Seeing this the middle aged man sneered:

"Why are you laughing now? have you gone braindead from all the stress now, well it could be true, anyone who is in that situation will lose his mind. Let me send you on your way then."

Just as the middle-aged man was about to order the bodyguards to shot this man down, the man in the black coat directly jumped from the terrace, the middle-aged man was stunned, he knew that something was really wrong. But before he could say anything, he remembered the grin on the man's face before jumping down. 

The falling man when still in mid-air took out a remote and pressed a button, then he closed his eyes.

Just after the man closed his eyes, a huge explosion occured in the building and the whole building came crashing down together with him. A sudden thought came to his mind while falling to his death.

"So, this is how it feels to destroy your own efforts yourself?"

"Atleast, I dragged my enemies to death with me too"

Then his mind was engulfed by darkness he only felt a sudden pain and he died, just like that.

But suddenly he felt as if he was being sucked into something. He doesn’t know how to describe that feeling but it was as if he was being sucked by something and after who know how long, he was finally sucked in that thing. Then he started to feel his body again. After a few minutes he gained full control of his body. Yet, he had a strange feeling of repulsion from all around. It was as if something was repulsing him.

With great difficulty he opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was a small wooden wall, he looked around and he found that he was inside a moving carriage or something like that. The carriage was shaking while moving. He was sitting on a small sofa like seat inside this carriage. Then accidentally he looked towards the mirror hanging on the right wooden wall of the carriage.

The person in the mirror was not him, he took the mirror and observed closely but the man’s feature was really different from his original face. The figure in the mirror had Dark Purple hair on head and his pupils was Dark Blue in colour. When looking at these pupils he felt as if bolts of currents were rolling around in the depth of these eyes. He had a very Arrogant and cold expression on his handsome face.

Just as he was getting more and more confused from all these strange things. He suddenly felt a warm feeling all over his body, the previous repulsion suddenly faded away as if it did not existed in the first place. Then a sudden rush of memories started to pour in his head. These memories were definitely not his own but on the same time he felt as if these memories were familiar with him.

After about half an hour he digested all the memories poured in his head and came to a final conclusion from all these strange things around him:

“I was reborn!?”

‘Not to mention that, I have been reborn in the same game, for which I created the whole company in the first place!’

He calmed his mind and started to sort out all the memories in his mind first:

‘In my previous life, I was the chairman of the world’s largest game developing country and several world-class games has been created under me.’

But the only thing he created this company was to develop the game ‘Hero’s Divine Throne’ further. This game was a very low-rated game but I was impressed from it’s story and decided to advance this game and create a better version of it. I was always a person, who would go to any limits to complete something I wanted to do.

So, I created a game developing company from scratch and with the hard-work of 25 years, the company finally reached the pinnacle. Then, I decided to continue my original plan and make an advanced version of that game, so I started to make plans for it. Just as the game was near its completion. My biggest rival created an alliance to make my company go bankrupt.

In normal times the company would not really mind these small things, but since the game’s launching date was coming near, a huge fight broke out with the alliance and a battle of money started between them and my company.

Several gangsters and mafia leaders were hired but, in the end, I lost that battle against them and my company got taken over by them. All this happened hidden to the sight of normal public. The rules of society only apply to you as long as you don’t have enough money, with money comes power to make such murder cases disappear easily.

Then a crazy thought came to my mind and I placed several explosives in my own company. In the end, I was successful in dragging my enemies down to hell with me. But I didn’t expect to be reborn in the same game, for which I did so much effort. Maybe god granted my wish, or maybe this is just a dream but right now this has become my reality.

‘Now let’s sort-out these new memories too.’

According to the new memories right now I am in the body of a low-rank villain Neo Kain. He is a talent-less paladin.

Originally, Neo was one of the three sons of the duke Milan. The Milan family is known all over the world for its great swordsmanship and are considered one of the five strongest families of this world. But because of Neo being talent-less in sword he was always despised and mocked by his own family. Even his own Parents was cold to him. But when he became 16 years old, he awakened the class Paladin.

In this game world, every person has a particular class and it awakens at the age of 16. You can’t change your class by using any orthodox method in this world. There are unorthodox methods, but they are really cruel and are banned all over the world.

Seeing this as an opportunity to get rid of his trash son, duke Milan sent Neo to the only Church of this world the God of Creation’s church and gave a high donation to the church to accept Neo. This way Duke Milan got rid of his trash son and he also used this incident to strengthen his political standings in the kingdom. Showing as if he made some big sacrifice or something.

Neo was not a fool, being talent-less in sword made him someone with a smart and intelligent mind. He immediately took his belongings and left for the church to become a paladin of the church. He knew that even if he was talent-less he can still get a better standing in the church by using his class as a reason. Afterall paladin is a rare class and even though the church of creation is the only and the greatest church in this world, there’s still only 10 official Paladins under the church.

Each with different abilities and talents. So, even with him being talent-less he was still able to get a good standing there. Now he has become the 11th official Paladin of the church after 6 years of training in the church. Then he left for a mission given to him by the church in order to get accepted as a real paladin.

After becoming an official Paladin, he got dispatched to the biggest training academy under the church, where all the talents are trained under the guidance of the church. He has gotten the order from the pope to stay in the academy as a Knight’s teacher there for the time being.

Neo accepted the order reluctantly and left for the academy. Then when he was on his way, I took over his body.

After sorting all this out Neo did not know if he should laugh happily at being given a new life or cry on becoming a low-level villain who will be killed in just six months from now onwards. A sigh escaped his mouth unknowingly:

“Life really likes to play games on people.”
