Opening my eyes , it seems I have reborn as a baby already . The goddess said that the world I’m born in is called ‘ Nifhelm ‘ .

  She also said that , human can use magic here .

  Still lying in the crate made for baby , I try to make a noise .

  A cry come out .

  Hearing me cry , one of the maids , happily pick me up , put me into her arms .

  She sang a lullaby .

  Because I am still a baby , a little bit of rhyming singing and with the rocking motion , I was easily put to sleep .

  Sleep first then .

  ...

  Awoken again .

  It seems it still night time . All I can see was pitch black .

  So dark .

  As I complain , my head starting to ache .

  Being a baby , all I can do is cry .

  I cry loudly , seems to have woken up the maids .

  They both come in , pick me up , sing me to sleep .

  The ache stop . I also stop crying .

  But I didn’t sleep .

  Instead I close my eye , pretending to sleep .

  I was put down . The maids went out . The room become dark again .

  The ache gave me memories about the life of the one I am going to live as .

  In this world , I am called ‘ Erdie Hide ‘ , first child of a poor country noble in ‘Nifhelm ‘.

  ...

  That Erdie , he lived such a hard life .

  Have his magic ability limited , never able to use it .

  Born with a disease that cause bone fractures more severe .

  His parents died when he was five , in a monster rampage . His only family left was the younger sister and two maids caring him from birth .

  At the age of ten , his little sister was kidnapped as a slave . Dying soon after that .

  Two years later , two of the maids , died protecting him from monsters . But they couldn’t protect him fully . He lost his left arm .

  He was the only one left.

  Wandering around , trying his best to survive .

  Five years later , he decided to go to the capital of ‘Nifhelm’ .

  There he meet , the woman of his life .

  Without an arm , with such bad physique , she stills love him .

  They went through hardships , sorrows , happiness and love .

  They have a house in a small village , where they shelter .

  They finally have their first child , a girl .

  The family lived happily .

  But that happiness didn’t last long .

  A horde of bandits come into his village , killing everyone they see .

  His life was spared , simply because he was disabled .

  His daughter life was spared too , she was sleeping when they came .

  His wife wasn’t . She was trying to save him .

  But they have more people . She was pushed down , her clothes were torned .

  She was raped to death .

  As to confirm her death , her head was chopped off .

  He was lying there , forced to see it all .

  His wife’s death , his neighbor’s death .

  The bandits than leave . Leave the village of dead people .

  Witnessing hell on earth , instead of depressing , he stood up , brought his daughter with him , started his life once again .

  Searching for work , finding food , take shelter .

  He was lonely , but his daughter was there .

  At the age of twenty five , he lost all his family , his wife, only his daughter was left .

  When he was thirty , his daughter was twelve . He was happy with what he got .

  But God didn’t favor him .

  On one night , a horde of monster came again .

  Last time , it was his father , mother , the maids that raise him .

  Now it’s his daughter .

  Once again being the witness , he watch his daughter eaten alive . Turn by turn , her arm , her legs , she was eaten like food .

  He then knew , that it was his end , nothing he can do .

  Walking around soulessly , he incidentally walk into a mysterious cave .

  In that cave , there was an enslaved devil .

  It said : “ Make a contract , you selling your body and soul to me and I will fullfilled all you ever wish “

  With out hesitation , he said : “ Yes “

  From then on , he turn into a killing machine .

  With the power from the devil , his magic ability increased his left hand turn into a device for him to communicate with the devil . He kill the bandits which killed his wife .

  Every single one of them .

  With his power , he wipes out every monster on ‘Nifhelm ‘ even the ones haven’t been born .

  Seeing his feat , the king give him a position as a knight in the royal system . He was ordered to fight mercilessly against the opposing country .

  The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

  Mercilessly did he fight .

  The wealthy kingdom which stood there was no more . All it’s left was deserted land .

  At the age of fourty , his name was written in history as the strongest man . Not long after that his contract with the devil expired .

  The great hero , the strongest man died . His body was taken by the devil . All his effort was useless .

  His name was no longer the strongest man , but the traitor who destroyed the world .

  ...

  I was reborn in such a bad life . Experiencing only sorrow and hatred . I wish I could born in another world rather than this .

  But still , I have to change his life entirely . Living such horrible life doesn’t suit me .

  Still having my knowledge from all the life I experienced .

  I can find a way to cure the disease .

  I can find a way to disable the magic limiter .

  I will , make the life of ‘ Erdie ’ a better one .

  I will help all the people in help .

  I will prevent ‘Erdie’ family’s death .

  I can stop the bandits before they reach the village .

  I will make Erdie’s name a hero not a traitor .

  But all of that , will be starting when I can walk . Now I need to sleep .

  How can a baby do anything , except from crawling and crying for food . Nothing!

  I first have to wait .

  ...

  It has been one year since I was born .

  It seems like , human grow faster in this world and die earlier . From what the parents said , normally human died at the age of 40 , and in fact the oldest person to live , died at 60 years old .

  One month after being born , I was able to crawl around .

  One week after that , I was able to speak normally .

  After 3 months , my height was equal to a 5 year old and I was able to run around the house .

  When I asked the parents , they said that , I was a slow grower . At my age , most kids are taller . Some of them already have magic ability .

  They didn’t know that my magic ability was limited . And it seems like a cure doesn’t exist .

  But I have experienced this situation before .

  Limited magic ability is not that hard to break . But most people don’t do it because it is such a horrible method .

  To drink the blood of a monster that is .

  Once you drink a monster’s blood . Your physical abilty and your magic ability wil increase tremendously .

  If you have any diseases or problems with your magic , after that method , your health will be normal again .

  Drinking a monster blood is normal to me , and the rest of its part can be used for many purposes, but a bigger problem awaits .

  How can I get one ? The father is a hunter , a pretty skilled one , but he never hunt a monster , just normal animals , so there is no chance of him bringing a monster home .

  My only option is to hunt it by myself . Although I am only one year old , with my physique similar to a nine year old , I can easily bring down one monster with a sharp object .

  But I have to do it in secret . Letting the parents know will ruin the plan .

  Not using a sharp object , or having anyone to help , it seems trapping them is the easiest choice .

  With that goal in mind , like everyday , I go out of the house , take some of the mother’s wool , a shovel , and quickly go into the forest .

  Finding a hiding spot , I quickly dug out a hole somewhere near , tying some of the berries to the end of the wool , and place it infront of the hole .

  Yes , if it is on Earth , anyone who make this would be laughed at , since it impossible to catch anything .

  It is a different thing in ‘Nifhelm’ .

  No one had ever tried baiting , so the monster only instinct is to kill and survive . That’s all they can do . So before such an easy trap , they will definitely fell for it .

  Back to the hiding spot from afar , I watch carefully . Not long after that , a rabbit curiosly crawl near the berries .

  Different from a normal rabit , this one is a monster call ‘ One-horned Rabbit ‘ , since it has a big horn on its head . This one is the suitable monster for consuming .

  It continues to crawl near the berries . Seeing that , I pull back a little bit , just for it to fall into the hole .

  Without hesitation , it jumped in .

  My plan worked . Grabbing a big rock in my hand , I run to the hole , dropping it down, trying to kill it .

  I leave the rock there to make sure it is surely death . After a while , I lift it up , it seems it just died . I then run back home , greet at the parent , easing them , and take a knife with me back to the forest .

  With a knife in my hand , I butcher it . Cutting the horn out , I set it aside , it seems I will show this to the parents someday . Cutting the leg out , I take a big bite .

  It is tatseless .

  Because I am still growing , nutrition is always needed .

  Take out the heart , the liver , I quickly put it in my mouth , chew it . Blood from those parts bursted out from inside .

  A bit salty .

  Before I can notice , blood of the rabbit has stuck on my hand . Without bothering , I take the front paws , eat it . Few minutes later , the rabbit is gone , only the bones visible .

  My body feels really hot , and it starts to ache .

  Holding the pain in for quite a while , it has stopped

  I feel more energetic now , my body feels lighter .

  I will be able to use magic now .

  But with this blood , they will be curios about what happened .

  So I take the knife , sratch it lightly on my arm . let my blood flow out . With my preparations are done , I quitely bring the knife back home , and hide it away .

  I fall down many times , as to make my shirt dirty . With my appearance right now , they will certainly think that I hurted myself when I fall ,and have to come back for recovery.

  Crying as loud as possible , I stand in front of the door . Hearing my cry , one of the maid , it seems like she is called ‘ Elma ‘ , worryingly ask me .

  “ Erdie , what happened to you , why are you all dirty . “

  “ I , I am sorry , Elma , I fell , and a branch scratch my arm , it hurts “

  “ Don’t worry , I will cure you . “

  Making up a reason , I stood there pretending to cry . Elma put her hand on my head , chanting a spell to recover me .

  “ Creators of the world , give me the power of love and caring , ‘ Recovery ‘ ”

  She finished her chant , the wound on my hand fade away until I feel no pain left , looking sastifyingly , she pat my head warning me , to be more carefull .

  “ Elma , was that magic ? Can you teach me to use it ? “

  Pretending to ask about something I know clearly about , I looked eagerly at Elma . It normal for children to be impressed with magic when they see it for the first time .

  “ Erdie , be a good boy and take your clothes off . Take a shower first and I will show you magic when you are able to use it . “

  “ I will , remember your promise , Elma “

  I tried to sound cute and cheerful as possible . Of course , being taught to use magic is the biggest joy a child can have .

  But I am not a boy or a little kid , so I have to pretend . Kids shouldn’t be gloomy and quiet . They are known to be energetic and cheerful .

  Hurriedly , I shower myself , and go straight to Elma’s room . She has been waiting for me.

  “ You can’t really wait right ,Erdie “

  “ I can’t wait anymore , teach me .”

  At this stage , Erdie completley unable to use any magic . But after I have drunk that rabbit blood, I’ll be able to show Erdie’s true potential .

  “ Listen carefully , there is two types of magic , supporting magic and offensive magic . People can only use supporting magic or offensive magic .”

  “ Woah , really .”

  “ Really , I am able to use supporting magic , while your parents and Emi can use offensive magic . “

  “ Elma is amazing , you are the only who can use supporting magic”

  “ You think so ?”

  “ Um , if I have offensive magic like father , can I shoot out fireballs ?”

  “ I don’t think that is possible . Only mages of the royal family can use elemental magic.Normal offensive magic user can only use magic to increase their physique . And supporting magic user like me can recover people’s wound and make a small barrier “

  “ That’s mean Elma is really amazing , you can make the pain from my arm gone , and can even protect yourself .”

  “ Maybe that is true . Now shall we test , whether Erdie is an offensive magic user or a supporting magic user . I am curios now .”

  For testing my magical type , she simply ask me to chant a short phrase .

  “ Creators of the world , give me the strength to fight , ‘ Boost ‘ “

  Finish chanting that weird phrase , I can feel my body become lighter . It seems it worked .

  “ Wow , Erdie you can use offensive magic . Now try running around . “

  “ Yes , Elma “

  Like what Elma ask me to , I start running around in her room , when I get near her bed , I fell down , scratching my feet against one of the bed’s leg .

  “ Woah , Erdie , are you okay .”

  “ I think so , I wish I can use supporting magic like Elma “

  “ I hope so too , but I can’t recover you right now . You are the second one that I heal , you have to wait until tomorrow Erdie “

  “ But it hurts “

  “ There’s nothing we can do about it “

  “ Creators of the world , give me the power of love and caring ‘ Recovery ‘ “

  “ It is not going to work , Erdi-“

  Right after the chant , my leg become normal again .

  “ Elma , I can use both type of magic , is that impressive ?”

  “ This is amazing , I have to tell the Emi “

  Happily , she run out of her room , she call Emi , who is the other maid . It seems the noise attracts the parents too .

  “ Why are you so loud , Elma “

  “ I am deeply sorry , Master Barrick , but I was too excited .”

  “ Why ? “

  “ Little Erdie can use both type of magic .”

  “ Wha , really ?This sure is exciting , Aria , come here , good news awaits .”

  “ What is this ruckus about , Elma ? “

  “ Lady Aria , I am sorry for being loud but it seems that Erdie can use both type of magic “

  “ Is that true , Erdie , come here please .”

  “ I will “

  Answering back the mother , I quickly get out of Elma room , run toward where they are , half way through , I purposely fell down , Hitting my knee on the ground , lightly fracture it .

  “ Are you okay , Erdie “

  “ I am fine Mother “

  “ But what about that bruise on your knee ? “

  “ It will be gone soon Lady Aria , Erdie , do you mind healing your own wound .”

  “ Yes . Creators of the world , give me the power of love and caring , ‘Recovery’ . It is normal now Mother , am I amazing ? “

  “ You are surely amazing , can you show me another magic “

  “ Magic ? Is this this one ? Creators of the world , give me the strength to fight ‘ Boost ‘ . “

  Surrounding my whole body was red aura , the characteristic of ‘ Boost ‘

  “ So you wasn’t lying Elma “

  “ Why should I , Lady Aria .”

  “ This call for a feast .”

  “ I agree master Barrick , I will cook the best food possible for this occasion “

  “ I will help you out too , Emi “

  “ You mind if I help , I want to reward my son . “

  “ Of course Lady Aria “

  Elma and Emi happily go into the kitchen , following by the mother . It seems , there will be a big dinner tonight .
