Unexpected Reincarnation

Free City 2

A young boy is seen walking down a crowded city street with people of different races. Many pairs of eyes were paying attention to him, especially the girls who had an age range not much different from him but he ignored all that because he was focusing on a sword in his grasp.

A few moments before..

"Hey you left your sword"

"What sword do you mean? "

"The sword"

I also walked back to the small table, on top of which there was a sword whose sword hilt looked like new but the scabbard looked worn.

"But the sword is not mine"

"What do you mean, boy? The sword was already there with you when I found you guys passed out in that place"

What Gordon meant, even after I dug up all my memories I never felt like seeing this sword in my entire life.

"The sword is a high-level artifact, even I myself am unable to pull it from its sheath"

"??? is?Even a man as strong as you can't pull it? Are you kidding me? "

Although it was only faintly faint that I could see an incredible amount of mana on him, it was far more frightening than that Lich.

"Hoohh, what is an analytical skill? "

Gordon who saw me while trying to judge him asked me.

"Skill?, what do you mean? "

There was obvious confusion on his face .

"Seriously you don't know what a skill is? "

"If I had known, I wouldn't have asked you"

"The skill...

He tried to explain it to me but the explanation from him was very difficult to understand.

And that's it, do you understand now, boy? "

Listening to the explanation from him I could only give a blank expression, Dahlia who was there also did not know what to look like, she just patted her head while shaking her head.

"How can I understand if your explanation is just as messed up as that"

I really wanted to hit him on the head, but it seems like even if I tried I could definitely fail.

"Huh, let me explain it then

Dahlia who could no longer bear to interrupt the conversation and then explained to me more or less like this...

A skill is a special ability that is attached or possessed by a person after reaching strength at a certain point or because of special circumstances that occur in that person.

For my case it seems like it includes the second one.

"This is the first time I've heard of this"

"That's only natural because even though someone deserves a skill doesn't mean that he will definitely get it"

"That's it"

Back to the present state...

"What sword is this is actually, my skill can't analyze it, but since Gordon thinks it's a high-level artifact so I guess that's only natural"

Because I never get the results I want other than tired eyes from using the skill continuously, I then keep the sword in my storage ring and focus on finding ilya alone in this city.

"Seriously, where the hell is he now?, in a city as big as it would take time to find him"

But this scene is rather new too, the appearance of the various people who are here is really diverse.

Starting from people short people with long beards who drink alcohol while walking during the day like this and those who have pointy ears like ilya are also there. But what caught my attention the most were people who had a human-like appearance but with some animal body parts on them.

For example the man, he looks like a human in general just his ears look like an animal with some fur on his chest, he wears long pants with the upper body open.

Like her she realized my gaze at her until she approached me.

"What do you see huh!? "

He stood right in front of me staring intently into my eyes, I could hear people passing by whispering while looking at the two of us.

I was too lazy to respond to this person in front of me so I just him while looking back at him, and somehow shortly after he started to get nervous and went straight out from before me.

"Don't see me again, boy! (What the hell is wrong with that boy, his eyes are so scary) "

He left angrily angry yet he also looked a little frightened.

"Shall I just beat him up? "

I asked myself, but I immediately rejected the idea because it would only cause me unnecessary trouble.

I continued walking and soon I heard a familiar voice. The voice of a girl who was heard was arguing with someone.

"Isn't this ilya's voice? "

When I approached the source of the voice it was true that Ilya was there but what he was doing there.

A man who seemed to be a street vendor was arguing with him.

"Why can't it!? Don't you know how expensive this thing is!? "

He snapped at the street vendor in a high tone while raising a necklace.

Huhhh

The merchant put his hand to his forehead and shook his head at the word ilya.

"Young lady, if the necklace is as expensive as you mentioned just now, then there's no way you who as the owner of it don't have any money"

The trader said it made sense but he did not want to give up on his argument.

"That's because I forgot to bring money!! So shut the fuck up and just accept this!! "

It seemed like the merchant had gotten a heavy headache after arguing with him. But he was still patient and tried to explain to her the situation.

"Look, young lady, let's just say that what you're saying is true that this necklace is very expensive, but still I can't accept it, a small merchant like me having such an object would only bring trouble to me"

"But I don't have any uan-"

Just before he finished his word I chimed in on their debate.

"What are you doing, arguing with a street vendor like that? "

I greeted him with a smile.

"Ahh leo are you here? "

But as he turned towards me his originally happy expression changed in an instant to that of a confused person.

"Who are you? "

"What's? Why are you saying such nonsense? "

"Hey are you really leo? "

He said that while holding my face and it wasn't enough that he even pinched my cheek. This irritated me a little and immediately took his hand away from my face.

"Who else is it!? "

"So that's right you? I can't believe you're hiding something like this behind your ugly mask that's hehe"

She said her with a slightly flushed face and with a smile that was either mocking or what.

"Have played enough! Don't you still have business with that merchant"

Point me towards that merchant who just noticed.

"Oh yeah right, can borrow me some money"

It was just a small request from him so I agreed without thinking and handed him some coins that he gave the merchant.

"So what's your plan now, Leo? "

"Hmm, I was planning on visiting the blacksmith's place to look for some weapons, all the weapons I had before were all destroyed"

"Then I'll come with you, I can choose a good weapon for you"

Even though he said that, but I myself already have analytical skills so I don't need his help.

"Necessary"

I answered quickly, it seemed to disappoint her a little but it was really unnecessary.

"Well, I'll just come along"

The place we were going to was a place in the suburbs where this place is usually referred to as a slum. While walking down the street with ilya I felt some people staring at us with strange gazes, I thought to look for the reason but no matter how I thought about it I found no reason why they were like that, so I decided to ask him.

"Hey ilya, people are staring at us with strange eyes, do you know why? "

"Seriously you don't know why? "

"Why do you think I'm asking you, huh? "

In response to my question he just laughed as he muttered so softly that I could not hear him clearly.

" Stupid"

"What did you just say? "

"What's not it, but when are we going to walk like this? It's been some blacksmith shop we've been through until now"

"Someone told me a good place in the suburbs"

"You mean the slums? "

"Yes"

"There really is such a place in the slums? "

"Of course, I'm just following his advice"

After a few other short conversations we did not feel we had reached our destination....
