《Reborn with 1600 IQ》2. The beginning, and the stats table
Advertisement
In a world of magic, elves, and dwarves. In a world full of mysteries, and wonders, a small boy was born to a poor family. At first he seemed like a normal, healthy boy, and he brought his parents great happiness, as he was their only child. Even if they weren’t wealthy, they spent a lot of time looking after him, and making sure that he had everything he wanted.
But everything changed in a short time...
“Don’t we have any more books? We should have some books. Are you sure that you can’t get me any books?” a one year child said, while looking at his parents.
Yeah, this child wasn’t normal. It isn’t normal for a child to start speaking fluently in the eighth month of their life, and it isn’t normal to read without any problems at the age of one. It was so abnormal, that his parents didn’t know what to do, because they were too poor to afford books, and the only one they had, was given to them by a distant relative many years ago… They didn’t want to disappoint their only son.
Even if he was just a one year old baby, now sitting on the wooden floor of their house.
As the time passed, the boy learned, and learned some more. At the age of ten, he would speak six languages fluently, and use even hard math without any problems. Of course, his parents didn’t teach him that, but the scholar, that lived in the city.
From time to time he would come by to his house, just to talk with him. He was old, but for some reason he didn’t mind going out of his way, just to meet this boy, and bring him things to read.
The time passed like this, and the boy continued his studies under the scholar. He didn’t have many friends, because he would rather spend his time with books, but it’s not like he had problems with it.

Yeah, he was an introverted, but a really smart boy. His looks weren’t that bad either, but his strength was lacking a lot. Maybe because he didn’t move a lot, or maybe because all his talent went into his brain, but his body wasn’t made for physical work.
Years went by, and his fifteenth birthday was coming. It’s an important day for people in this world, because at this age they receive a “table”. Who knows why, but everyone has it, and it shows the talents of the person who has it.
“Your fifteenth birthday is coming, do you want anything? You know that me, and your father aren’t really rich, but you deserve…” they boy didn’t let his mother finish her words, as he looked at her with kind eyes.
“There is nothing I want. I could live like this for the rest of my life. I like it even if we are poor, so don’t worry about the things like this.” he said, and his mother smiled at him widely.
“We really have such a smart son.”
The words of his mother were true. They had a truly smart son. Who knows, he could be the most intelligent person in this world. It was weird, that normal people like this, had such a splendid son, but accidents happen all the time.
“Tomorrow is my fifteenth birthday…” the boy said, when he got to his room. He was lying on his bed, and looking at ceiling.
“If I can have a wish, then I want those peaceful days to never end…” he said, and smiled. After that he went to sleep.
This night he had a weird dream. In it, he saw a familiar person, standing near the road. Cars were riding on it, and the person that he saw, was now waiting for the light to change.

“Hey… Wait… I know this person…” the boy said in his dream, as he looked at the man being hit by the truck, while helping a little girl.
“N-No… It can’t be… It can’t be!” he shouted, and woke up from his dream.
“I like it even if we are poor?! I can live like this?! Were they making fun of me!? I... “ he said with anger, as the memories of his past life returned to him.
One memory was a really painful one. A memory of a girl that took his easy life away from him, leaving him to live as a peasant. And she did it with only a roll of a die…

Phase 0: siVisPride
Note: If you cannot deal with flaw, folly, vulnerability and the cruel extremes often winning: then this story will infuriate you. This is more about learning to deal with struggle, going through it and we can do within it, versus a Weak-to-Strong type of story. Updates on Thursdays! This is a reality eeriely like our own. This is a reality that somehow produces fantasy. This is a reality that life has physically changed. This is a reality further complicated by fantasy. Their fantasy is the Shift Noumena. Instead of monsters, they have the Nulgarrt. Instead of sacred and anicent lands, people watched their own homes warp into Terminsys Cities. And magic? siVis. And it's a lot more crazy, a lot more mindbending than what they're dealing with now. We join five young women, trying their best to stay away from all of this, only for them to finally have their first experiences. They're gonna have to be forced to grow up, through these confusing and turblent times. A weird and emotional journey, versus another heroic tale.

Mary Susan Oceanrunner and the Brutus Saint's Academy
Join Mary Susan Oceanrunner on her quest to do... erm... something really important for the world... probably... Ahem. Long gone are the days when every hero could do whatever they wanted - now, we are civilised. We have government. Law. And proper forms. Lots of proper forms. (Final episode 25/07/2022. Also - beta readers far into the book rate the 'gore' degree as below 2/10, so the warning is a bit much) Mary Susan Oceanrunner is a poor girl from the orphanage, who like many others before, has to fulfil her destiny. The prophecy had been told, and she is the only one who can make things right. Erm... probably. Anyway, she can't just go and kill monsters like in the middle ages. First, she must apply for the appropriate permissions, fill the forms, learn about the proper loot taxations... Hey, no one said adventuring would be easy, right? Disclaimers: No claim made by any character by the book should be treated as the author's or anyone else's opinion on any subject. Most likely, it was just the funniest thing the Author could think of at the time of writing. This book contains many references to other works. It will probably be best enjoyed by individuals familiar with at least some of the following: 1) Computer games2) Fantasy in general3) Science fiction4) Tabletop RPGs5) Conspiracy theories6) Corporation work life7) Long forgotten prophecies uttered millennia ago in almost as forgotten languages under a starless night three dusks before the great convergence8) Filling any government-mandated form9) School10) EnglishMy ultimate goal is to make as many people experience something akin to joy while reading (think ~a bit louder exhale through the nose). It doesn't mean every scene will be funny or joyful because that's not how this stuff works. I can neither confirm nor deny having any other hidden agenda outside of that.
