Sakura petals danced in the wind, slowly descending to the ground. I was currently in what looked like a pasture of silver grass, with a single Sakura tree behind . I had been standing here for a while, doing nothing but enjoying the scent and sight. I didn't want to admit it, but the realization dawned upon . I died. Well, there was no room to whine about it now.
'Ugh… that was painful.'
I thought, rubbing my neck with my wing. For so reason I maintained my bird form even after reincarnation.
"I bet it was."
A voice said, startling .
'Huh? Who are you?'
I looked around and noticed the voice coming from behind a tree. A bit scared, I didn't dare go near the owner of the voice.
"Seriously?"
The person moved from behind the tree, revealing a girl in my school uniform – a skirt, blazer over a white shirt with a red tie loosely fitted around the neck – with tanned skin like a surfer. Her sandy brown hair was shoulder-length, complenting her pretty face. She was the spitting image of soone I knew from my world.
'Maya?'
I asked.
"You don't know the na of one of your very first benefactors? I feel insulted now."
When the figure completely ca from the behind the tree with her hands raised in peace signs and a mischievous grin, I saw her eyes. They possessed a weird symbol with various colours. I would have mistaken them for kaleidoscopic eyes, but that was more like heterochromia. I then realized who this Maya faker was.
'My benefactor? A creep like you can't be the great Ancient Goddess that created the world.'
"Excuse you! I am soone who has been with you since before the very mont you hatched into this world! You are right, I am not the Ancient Goddess, but I am sothing better."
She pouted her cheeks and whined.
'Eh? Who the hell are you?'
"Do I really need to spell it out for you? I thought you were actually smarter than you let on."
'Shut it, you stupid system master!'
"So you did know who I was."
'Of course I did. This is the perfect mont for you to make your debut and try to make feel awe and respect for you and all that nonsense, right? You even used Maya in an attempt to seduce and calm down. Well that ain't working here so show your true form.'
"Disappointing. But it is as you say, I, the Creator of the System and its rightful master, Alpha, have decided to grace you with my presence. I'm sorry, but I can't show you my true form just yet."
'Boo! Boo! Bring in a different system master!'
I yelled.
"Is there really nothing I can do to change your opinion of ?"
She was faking being hurt by my words.
'Huh? You want to think highly of you? Give lots of unique skills then!'
I jokingly said, but she said sothing scary next.
"Seriously? You know too many unique skills can kill you for good, right?"
'W-What?'
She ignored .
"I'll give you sothing better."
'Eh? Better?'
"Yeah. Two pieces of advice. First, beware of the he who watches from the shadows. Total creeper. Second, be mindful of the girl who doesn't know ti. She could be your downfall."
'Eh? What's that supposed to an?'
"Can't say more. Takes away all the fun. Still, stop acting so stupid. You might actually die one of these days. And there will be no coming back."
'Oi, oi, stop waving death flags for .'
I sighed.
'You're a weird one, but you've been helping out all this while in your own weird way, so I guess I'll trust you this ti as well even though I have absolutely no idea what you are saying.'
"Teehee~ Good. Bye then. Hurry up and grow strong, kay?"
My vision was soon clouded with bright light. I could only rember her bright smile as everything faded away.
"Oh yeah. I forgot to ntion it, but I hope you like the little gift I left you."

"WHAT THE HECK!?"
I ended up screaming. There were just too many alerts for even to believe. Just too many things. I felt like my brain would get fried, but I suddenly cald down.
'Ok, let's calm down. Let's look through all of these, one by one. Ok so I got back all my blessings and unique skills that I had before the event. Good, good. But… wait. I don't need to organize this myself. Yo agent, can you hear ?'
'Yes! I missed you so much! Wait… that's odd, hearing you say "Yes" instead of "Affirmative". Did you go through so kind change?'
The agent gave no response.
'That's right. You were never much of a conversationalist, huh? Oh well, moving on then. I got a new unique skill. [Remorse]? What kind of skill is that?'
'... Another over powered ability! What the heck!? This is next level shit right here. Didn't the system master warned about too many skills? Why did she send a skill that would help accumulate a lot? Is there so sort of limitation to the skill?'
>
'Seriously? No, no. I don't rember you having access earlier.'
