In Another World with Battle God System

On the slightest consciousness, he has. He opened his eyes slowly only to be covered by a black shadow from the warm embrace of his mother. Once his consciousness was aroused. He could feel all of the bone and muscle tissues in his body screaming in pain, after the collision that happened to them.

The shadow began to move, separating itself from the boy and the boy's eyes opened wide after witnessing the figure of his mother with a single pole as thick as his hand plunged on her left chest.

However, the woman kept her smile in her mouth seeing her darling child was safe. With her trembling finger, she reached the young boy's cheek caressing it delicately before opening her mouth, with a hoarse voice she began to talk to her son.

“..I. am.. glad. Khuk.. cough, cough”.

Blood began to clog her mouth and her voice was cut off.

“.MOM!”.

The boy was alarmed as he tried to seek help from his father in front only to find his condition was worse than his mother's. His body was crushed by the body car and his physique was deformed into a gruesome state because of a dozen pieces of steel that minced his body.

The boy's stomach began to churn as the food that he consumed in the morning began to creep up in his throat. A warm touch from his cheeks prevented it as his head was yanked to face his dying mother once more.

“Tsu, ha,, Listen, Ren, there will be a rough path ahead of you. But Your mother and father believed that you will prevail and manage to overcome it, cough, cough..”.

“Mom..”.

The boy's sight began to turn blurry as the misty tear in the corner of his eyes began to flow on his cheeks.

“..So, Live stand strong, and never give up. If you can’t handle it yourself, seek others for help. Don't try to shoulder everything alone, Hehe, it's tiring you know..”.

“No, Mom. No please, don't leave me”.

Ren began to weep himself as he tried to reach the mother before him. But his mother was the first one to embrace him trying to calm down his crying son. Caressing his head with her trembling hands mustering the last strength she had to open her mouth, trying to say her last wish.

“..It's okay, Ren. Everything will be okay. Thanks for coming to our life, and I am sorry, for not being there with you. I..am ..sorry..”.

His mother's limbs began to drop down, and her body slowly began to turn cold in his embrace.

“No Mom uwaaaah,, Mom please help somebody, help my mom”.

Those fleeting memories began to fade away as the consciousness that stood comfort in the dark aroused and awoke the eyes of a certain young man.

The young man in question raised his upper body that had been laid on the hard floor in a certain place in the corner of the dukedom. He felt that his sight was blurry as the wet sensation in his cheek raised his curiosity. Then, he began to touch his cheeks and found that he was crying in his sleep.

“Father, mother”.

It was a memory from his past life when he was still alive as a young man named Amamiya Ren. He died in an accident after rescuing a certain person from the robbery who coincidentally was holding a folding knife in hand. He got stabbed and thus the life he so much cherished because of his parent's dying wish is gone after a decade.

Now in his second life, he is in the body of a young man in his late teens the same as him. He also has the same name, Ren.

Ren is a born commoner and his parents were an exceptional adventurer in the past. But now they also passed away, leaving the poor boy alone.

It's been one week since Ren possessed the young man's body. His appearance consisted of a handsome child with unkempt black hair and a pair of strong will eyed with black pupils. His body was skinny because of the harsh life he was living after his last family left him.

In the narrow hut that was made from the decaying wood, he found. A growl echoed in the room as he began to rub it to calm it down. He felt the hunger eating his mind but couldn't do anything about it as he didn't have a single penny in his possession. So he stood up and visited a place where he could satiate his hunger.

As Ren walked outside of the almost collapsed hut. In this impoverished neighborhood, the air was filled with the scent of decay and desperation. A dilapidated building that barely stands together filled his sight.

After walking for a few minutes he arrived at the well that was empty because of the current situation where the other side of the place had the festive atmosphere surrounding it. The others must use this chance to do some pickpocketing for their lives.

Ren threw out the bucket until he heard a splash, then pulled the rope and took the bucket outside for him to wash his face first to freshen up. He looked up and saw a couple of thugs wearing the same outfit as him. A cheap cloth filled with dirt moved suspiciously while carrying a little girl on his shoulder. It seems the girl is also unconscious in Ren's eyes.

Different from his thought he turned his gaze away as if he didn’t care about what will happen to the girl in question. It was so different from his attitude in his past life. Probably because even though he had the memories in his past life, the dominant one that affected the man's attitude was the memories he had in this world.

Ren again throws away the bucket inside after wiping up the dirt on his upper body. As the bucket arrived before him he scooped it into his hands and intended to take a sip of it before he could hear a clicking sound that came from behind him approaching his location.

“Hey, you!”.

“Excuse me, young fella!”.

The distressed and impatient voice reverberated in his ear as he gulped the fresh water satiating his hunger, before turning his gaze to the three people looking at him.

The party consisted of two people wearing a silver plate of armor that was covered by a big brown robe but Ren could also see underneath it they also concealed their sword at their waist. As for the other one, She was a young woman, with silver hair and fierce eyes with ruby pupils looking at him. Wearing a fancy dress that eases movement covered with a black robe.

Ren roused his cautious level and opened his mouth.

“..May I help you?”.

The three people opened their eyes wide before the young man who stood proud before them. Then, the young woman, unperturbed, began to approach him.

“Have you witnessed someone bringing a girl entered the slums?”.

“...!?”.

Ren raised his eyebrows as he began to nod his head.

“Truly?”

“Young fella, do you know where they are going?”.

The young woman jerked her body forward and the man behind opened his mouth probing for more. Nodding his head, Ren began to explain what he had seen earlier.

“Yes, earlier I witnessed a couple of thugs bring an unconscious girl on their back, and walk further inside. As for the place I didn't know it for sure, I am sorry”.

““Tch””.

The woman in the behind clicked her tongue as if she was disappointed about the finding. The man opened his mouth.

“Thank you, young fella. Here, for you”.

The man flicked a yellow coin in his hand; it flew in a parabola trajectory before Ren caught it in his hand, and his eyes opened wide.

“Let’s go both of you”.

“Yes, My Lady”.

“By your will”.

The three of them began to hasten their footsteps and Ren could only watch their retreating in thoughts.

Unconsciously he grabs the black stone in his necklace, from his mother's keepsake.

The truth is he knows the thugs that brought the girl earlier, and he knows where their whereabouts were.

“From the looks of it. Those three were clearly outnumbered, but they are a trained knight. There is no possibility that they will be beaten by some thugs, but..”.

An ominous feeling began to gnaw at his mind disturbing his breakfast. He sighs in annoyance.

“..Should I check it?”.

Ren hesitated at first but after chugging a couple of more drinks. He felt full before walking toward the inner place of the slums.
