----------------------------------------
The world you are going to be reincarnated into is called Zemuwr. This world holds the legends and magic that your previous life classified as fantasy. There exist various species and different races within this realm...
----------------------------------------
"Yeah, yeah, I had guessed as much... Tell me something I don't know," I interjected, growing impatient with the panel's written monologue. The notion of magic and mythical creatures was something I had already anticipated, but the uncertainty of what awaited me gnawed at my nerves.
----------------------------------------
I had not realized you were so impatient, but very well, let us proceed. Zemuwr is a vast planet, at least eleven times larger than Earth. It comprises a total of nine continents, each home to various races and species.
----------------------------------------
The panel paused as if allowing its words to sink in, and then began to generate new words in its signature golden color, erasing the previous ones. My mind raced with curiosity and trepidation. A world so large and diverse—what challenges and adventures lay ahead?
----------------------------------------
This serves as a brief overview of the world. You will need to discover more about it on your own. Now, let us discuss your reincarnation.
----------------------------------------
I nodded, feeling a mix of excitement and apprehension. The idea of starting anew was thrilling, but the unknown loomed large. I allowed the panel to continue, my heart pounding in anticipation.
----------------------------------------
You will be reincarnated as the lowest-ranked demon. A new body will be created for you to inhabit.
----------------------------------------
"Wait a moment... I will be reincarnated as a demon? And may I know why that is?" I asked aloud, confusion and a hint of anxiety creeping into my voice. The implications of being a demon were not lost on me.
----------------------------------------
Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Yes, you will be reincarnated as the lowest-ranked demon due to the plausibility you are carrying. I cannot explain further, as you lack sufficient authority.
----------------------------------------
I sighed aloud, frustration bubbling up. It seemed that to get the answers I sought, I would need to grow stronger. The weight of this realization settled heavily on my shoulders. Still, I had to accept it and move forward.
Deciding to move on, I asked, "How am I going to reincarnate? Will I be born as a newborn baby demon, or will I possess someone else's body?" My curiosity was piqued, but so was my apprehension.
----------------------------------------
A new body will be created by us, and you will possess that body.
----------------------------------------
I nodded, understanding that the system or these Gods would create a new body for me, and my soul would inhabit it. The idea of a new body was both intriguing and unsettling. What form would it take? How would it feel?
Before I could think further or ask more questions, the system panel glowed brightly with new words, not allowing me to inquire further.
----------------------------------------
Now, prepare yourself. The process has begun.
----------------------------------------
As I read these final words, I felt my ethereal body begin to disintegrate. Surprisingly, I felt no pain, only a strange sense of detachment. The world around me faded, and within moments, I completely lost consciousness.
My final memories were of the system panel's encouraging words, a glimmer of hope amidst the uncertainty.

The sensation was unbearable, as if a thousand insects were crawling all over my body, their tiny legs prickling and prodding my skin. I could feel each one moving, an incessant itch that I couldn't scratch.
It was overwhelming, and my mind was a whirlwind of discomfort and confusion.
After what felt like an eternity, the sensation began to subside. Slowly, I opened my eyes, blinking rapidly as the harsh light of a new world greeted me. The uncomfortable feeling gradually dissipated, leaving me with a strange sense of clarity and awareness.
I took a deep breath, inhaling the unfamiliar scents of this new environment, and decided to observe my surroundings. As my vision adjusted, I realized I was in a forest, but not like any forest I had seen before. This place was teeming with life, a vibrant tapestry of colors, sounds, and smells.
The trees were colossal, their trunks wide and gnarled, stretching high into the sky. Their leaves formed a dense canopy overhead, filtering the sunlight into a kaleidoscope of greens and golds.
The air was thick with the scent of earth and foliage, a rich, loamy fragrance that spoke of life and growth.
Vines twisted around the trees, their tendrils reaching out like curious fingers. Plants of all shapes and sizes bloomed in a riot of colors. Some were familiar, while others were completely alien, their forms bizarre and otherworldly.
The ground beneath me was soft and spongy, covered in a thick layer of moss and fallen leaves. Insects buzzed and flitted about, their wings creating a constant hum. Occasionally, I could hear the rustle of small creatures scurrying through the underbrush.
I stood up slowly, my limbs feeling strange and unfamiliar. Looking down at my new body, I saw that it was indeed different from my previous human form. My skin was a deep shade of dark crimson, and I had sharp, claw-like nails. My senses were heightened, each sound and scent more vivid than before.
As I continued to explore my surroundings, I marveled at the sheer diversity of life in this forest. There were creatures that resembled animals from my old world, but with slight differences that marked them as native to Zemuwr.
I saw a creature that looked like a deer, but with antlers that glowed faintly in the dim light. Another creature, similar to a rabbit, had fur that changed color to blend in with its surroundings.
The forest was not just a place of beauty; it was also a place of danger. I knew that such places often had very deadly predators waiting for their clueless prey so I had to be cautious, to learn the ways of this world if I were to survive.
Reflecting on the system's words about my reincarnation, I felt a mix of emotions. It was a challenge that I had to embrace if I wanted to unlock the mysteries of this world and my own existence.
I took another deep breath, steeling myself for the journey ahead. The forest was vast, and I had much to learn. But with my newly acquired skills and the determination burning within me, I was ready to face whatever challenges lay in my path.
Zemuwr was a world of legends and magic, and I intended to carve my own legend in its ancient lore.
As I began to walk through the forest, I kept my senses alert, ready to adapt to this new life. The path was uncertain, but I was determined to navigate it with strength and resolve.
My journey in Zemuwr had just begun, and I was prepared to embrace the unknown with open arms.
