Chapter 1: A New Life
In a realm shrouded in perpetual darkness, a lone white soul stands before a radiant golden God, its presence illuminating the void. The soul's myriad emotions swirl within, a tempest of nostalgia and regret. It recalls the fateful encounter with the infamous Truck-kun, the vehicle that had catapulted it into this divine presence.
Once an ordinary man with a Leo, he had devoted his life to caring for his aging parents after graduating from university, sacrificing his own desires and aspirations in the process. An office worker burdened by the weight of familial responsibility, he had neither the time nor the opportunity to seek love, leaving him untouched by romance and emotionally isolated.
This relentless obligation bore down on him, manifesting as stress and despair, which he sought to escape through the vibrant worlds of anime and novels.
In those stories, he often read of protagonists who transcended their mundane lives through miraculous transmigrations, instigated by Truck-kun. Now, standing before the divine being, he is filled with anticipation and trepidation, eager to discover what fate awaits him in this new chapter of existence.
The God gazed down at the astonished Leo, a hint of amusement dancing in his divine eyes. "You have a chance to start over on Earth, but I require something in return." The soul, overwhelmed by the possibility of a second life, managed to ask respectfully, "What do you need from me, Sir?" With a dismissive wave, the God replied, "Drop the honorifics. I don't need them. What I seek is simple: I need entertainment, which is scarce in my realm. If you can entertain me with your life, I'll grant you this opportunity. But know this, I'll provide you with three wishes other than wishing to reborn in your world. Choose wisely."
Joy surged through Leo at the prospect of a fresh start. "Can I choose any world and any time?" he asked eagerly. The God nodded, "Yes, any world at any time, or even multiple worlds." Taking a moment to reflect, the soul carefully formulated his desires. "I wish for a system with consciousness that encompasses everything I read in my previous life, complete with quests, shops, and roulette features."
The God's interest piqued, he listened intently. "Secondly, I want this system to operate on a currency system, using points that I need to be infinite." With a grin, he added, "And finally, I wish to be reincarnated as the main character in various anime worlds—like Naruto in the Naruto world or Luffy in One Piece. The specific worlds can be determined by the roulette in the system."
The God chuckled, clearly entertained by the Leo's enthusiasm. "Okay, your wishes are granted." With those words, a radiant light enveloped the soul, signaling the beginning of an extraordinary journey through the vast multiverse, where his life would finally take a turn toward the extraordinary.
As the soul opened the system panel, a sense of excitement coursed through him. Everything appeared just as he had wished—intuitive menus filled with quests, a shop brimming with items, and an expansive roulette that promised new adventures. After verifying the features, he felt a wave of relief wash over him, confirming that the God had not deceived him.
With a surge of enthusiasm, he navigated to the roulette, which presented him with eight enticing options: Naruto, One Piece, Dragon Ball, Bleach, Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer, My Hero Academia, and Black Clover. A wide smile spread across his face at the endless possibilities before him. Heart racing, he took a deep breath and spun the roulette, watching it whir and blur with vibrant colors and symbols. As it gradually slowed down, his anticipation peaked until it finally settled on Naruto.
In an instant, his consciousness began to drift away, the world around him dissolving into a kaleidoscope of light and energy. The last thing he heard was the God's amused murmur, "Let's see how you'll entertain me, unlike the previous ones."
Then, with a sudden clarity, he opened his eyes to find himself in an entirely different world.
