Reincarnation: First Love

Episode 1: Betrayed

_ Fiction _

My name is Kaito Doujima. After my mother died, I lived alone with my father.

That was until father suddenly brought in another woman and her son who was older than me. Apparently, I've loved women other than my mother.

My lazy father had deceived her because she was a very kind, gentle, hard-working, and quite successful woman. My poor mother had fallen in love without knowing her evil intentions.

I believe he has done that to some other woman. Truly an asshole who does not appreciate women, lazy and useless, and only rely on his might and appearance.

Right now, he has even been enjoying my mother's legacy selfishly. In fact, at first I thought that it was my duty to support him as my mother's successor.

I'm sick.. I don't want to live with these people and be their money-seeking slave!

"Whatdidyou say? Want to get out of the house? Don't expect us to let you! Already allowed to stay in this house, still dare to do as good as your head!"

The person I called 'father' was even currently beating, and scolding me with cruel and dirty words.

"Don't fuck around, weak guy! Do you want to be castrated first to obey?" threaten my same goddamn half-brother.

"Shut up! You guys shouldn't-" I snapped in anger.

Not having time to defend myself, I was beaten even harder by them.

"Ukh..!" groaning pain.

I can't take it anymore.. Too bad, I really hate fighting and inherited too good a trait from my mother!

Am I going to die in vain like my mother?

A push made me realize and fight straight away.

I managed to push my father and stepbrother until they fell to the floor. Turns out, I'm this strong?

"Bad!!"

My cruel half-brother suddenly went berserk and lost his mind, then grabbed a blunt object and banged it on my head. I was still trying to stop her action, even though she was very brutal and heartless.

My father instead sat quietly and just watched with a cruel smile, while my stepmother did not even ponder and continued to do her personal activities. These outcasts are more ruthless than demons!

"Let me hold him, do it right!"

My father's words were so sadistic and icy, I..

The pain in my head was unbearable. I'm gonna die..

I can't believe my father killed his own son. I'm really disappointed. I will always hate and curse him!!

A few moments later..

"Enough, Ren! He's dead" my father said.

"Heh. I'm just making sure. It could be his head as hard as a rock. How dare this lowly man argue to the father who has been generous to him, feel it!" said Ren, the stepbrother who killed me.

They even threw my body somewhere secluded, instead of burying me properly. They also just ran away, after removing all traces of them.

Unfairly. I can't accept all this!

In fact, my spirit who saw all this can still feel an incredible heartache.

Why me and my mom?

A light suddenly shimmered all over my body.

"Eh..?" mummify slowly.

In an instant, my spirit had left where my body was thrown away and arrived at a place like any other realm.

"Welcome, Kaito Doujima-kun," said someone to me enthusiastically and suddenly.

"Calm down. I'm not a bad person, not like your family. My name is Fuji, and the woman next to me is Kaguya. From today, we will take care of you" said the man, as he appeared with his woman and approached me.

"You people? No, it's impossible.. Are you dead too?" I was spontaneous with them.

"really. We were once dead and selected to be reincarnated. We'll show you" replied the woman named Kaguya.

A much brighter and wider light briefly shone on Kaguya's body, then slowly vanished and revealed a different figure from the woman.

"You.. Then, this guy too?" many ensure.

"really. We can't be reincarnated as a whole human being anymore. As you can see, we are half-cat human demons. We are called Kuro Neko. Although it sounds simple and just means 'cat' in the human world, we are actually very strong because of our supernatural abilities" Kaguya explained.

"so.. Then, why did I meet you guys and see all this? Shouldn't.."

"That's because you too will soon be reincarnated," the man named Fuji refuted.

"Just calm. You will not die immediately and have been chosen to be one of us" Kaguya added, with a smile that somehow felt motherly.

"Impossible! How can I be chosen to reincarnate like you?" I don't believe it.

"Hm.. For that reason, no one can know. However, if the spirits of the dead arrive at this place, then it will definitely be reincarnated into Kuro Neko" Kaguya said.

"Sorry.. Your words make little sense to me. What did I do in the human world to experience all this?" I said sour.

"That's not all. You will also be able to choose to stay in the human world again, or in this place after being reincarnated. On one condition, you have to hide your new identity if you want to live in the human world. In addition, you will get various other benefits from your new life system."

"Advantage? The system? What-what-"

Not having had the time to finish my words, my body had been filled with light again and my form had slowly changed in part to resemble a big cat.

"Well. Now, you have officially become Kuro Neko. As my son, I will teach you how to level up and become stronger!"

Again, the man named Fuji spoke too quickly and arbitrarily, without thinking about whether I understood or not.

"Son..?" confused response.

Kaguya hit Fuji's back a little hard, then spoke to me again.

"He was impatient. Sorry yes, Kaito-kun. I'll explain everything to you."

Kaguya began to explain things slowly and sequentially to me, until I began to understand.

As it turned out, I would be called one of their children after successfully reincarnating. Moreover, the thing that struck me the most was my half-stealthy human figure that turned handsome, as well as the supernatural power I gained.

With this, can I slightly change destiny? Then.. Can I meet him?

Actually, there was a sweet girl that I had always cherished secretly all this time. The girl who was too perfect for me before.

Now, self-confidence began to enter my heart. I can get everything I want!

"Kaito-kun's chat. I understand that you intend to change your fate. But don't forget one thing. Your conscience is more important than anything. Therefore, never become a greedy demon. Youunderstand?"

Kaguya's words instantly undo my intentions.

"Can you read my mind?" flabbergasted.

"really. It's one of my supernatural abilities. Remember it well. A greedy demon will cause disaster and will be punished to perish forever. I will explain everything further to you, once you are ready. Then, from this moment on call me okaasan, and this man is otousan," pinta Kaguya.

"Good.. Otousan, okazan.."

I had no choice but to obey them. After all, I had the instinct that they would always be on my side.

Such is. My new life is about to begin.
