I was reincarnated in a modern day Onmyoji family - Chapter 2

 Chapter 2 - Parent Gacha

When I died, I was reincarnated and turned into a baby.

It's only 18 words long, but I was dumbfounded for a while as I experienced this unworldly phenomenon.

The womb feels like this .......

A woman's cunt ...... can be spread out like this .......(T/N - uhoh)

In my previous life, I had a history of not having a girlfriend, equal to my age, so my mind was filled with the mysteries of the female body.

I forgot about it when I got older, but come to think of it, I'm a guy too. How could I not be interested in such things?

No, no, no. Now is not the time to be thinking about that.

What the hell has happened to me is what's important.

However, the people around me would not leave me alone. After all, I had just gotten out of the bath.

Something was attached to my ankle. Is this a name band?

Oh no, I suddenly got liquid in my eyes!

Hey, what are you doing to a newborn baby?

Confused through a number of strange experiences, I was held in my arms by a woman who appeared to be a midwife. I was then immediately handed over to another woman.

Compared to the time when I was being cared for by a nurse, I've become much easier to carry around.

"Hey, let's have your mother hold you."

"Ah......I can finally meet you. My boy."

Perhaps because of my baby's eyesight, I couldn't see the face of the woman I thought was my mother, but I wondered if this was the receptive power of a mother, as I felt very safe in the arms of this woman.

......... haha

No, no, no. I had forgotten all the painful memories of my previous life and was about to reset my memory.

I don't know why, but now I have the opportunity to start my life over with the memories of my previous life, and I can't let this chance pass me by.

In my new life, I want to find something that I am absolutely passionate about. For that, I have to be proactive from the time I am a baby.

One of the reincarnation manga I read because of an advertisement had something called knowledge cheats.

You use the knowledge from your previous life to be called a genius from childhood. If you are in a different world, you can use the advanced technology of Japan to invent things.

However, the possibility of this being another world is extremely low. In fact, it's probably Japan.

The voices I've been hearing are all in Japanese, and this well-equipped white room must be a hospital.

In other words, I've been reborn in Japan.

After being separated from my mother, I was taken to the newborn room. 　I was dressed in 100% cotton baby clothes and shared a room with a lot of older babies.

Even though they were born a few days earlier than me, they just cried and didn't even try to express their wishes. On the other hand, I don't cry at all, so I'm a good kid who doesn't need any help.

"Yoshida-san, this child doesn't cry at all. Is he all right?“

"There are children like that sometimes, you know. Come on, change your clothes, change your clothes."

They say that not crying at all makes them worry. Should I cry once in a while when my mother comes?

Life in the newborn room was much busier than I had expected. I was weighed, my height was measured, a thermometer was stuck in my anus, my head and chest circumferences were measured, my pulse and heartbeat were checked, and every inch of my body was examined by the doctors.

I felt like I was checked on more things than when I was hospitalized in my previous life.

After four days of this, I was finally released from the hospital with my mother.

"Now, let's go home together."

The mother looks very happy and peers at me.

For now, let's give her a smile as a family service.

...... No, my facial muscles don't do their job at all. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a pretty good idea. It's no wonder I' m a baby.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a great idea.

"Oh, he just laughed. I wonder if he's happy to know that he's going to meet his father."

Yes, there's something I've always wondered.

I haven't seen my father ever since I was born.

I've been in the newborn room for a long time, and maybe he came while I was asleep, but shouldn't he be the first one to come running when his child is born?

He didn't even come to pick me up on the day his wife left the hospital.

"Your father works very hard for us," she said.

"He's blunt, but he's kind."

Huh, he's a workaholic, isn't he?

I don't understand why he would leave his beautiful wife and newborn baby behind and give priority to his work.

I died a virgin, so I don't understand how he feels at all.

After a bus ride and a walk, we arrived at a quaint house with a sense of history. ...... sounds good, but to put it simply, it was a shabby place.

The house was probably over 100 years old.

The building is a one-story Japanese house, and the grounds are quite large.

However, the garden is not well maintained and seems to have been overwhelmed by the wildness of nature. The building was in a state of disrepair, so I could not help but notice the current state of the house where I will be raised.

"This is where you'll live from this day forward."

"Ahh(I'm so worried...)“

When I saw my beautiful mother, I thought that in this life I was born into a wealthy family.

So I was even more disappointed when I saw a house that looked poorer than the one in my previous life.

Having no money means that you are restricted in many ways. It means you can't try new things or genres that cost a lot of money. The economic situation of parents has a lot to do with the environment in which their children are raised.

"Your father hasn't come home yet. Shall we go to the bedroom first?"

The outside of the house was shabby, but the inside was cleaner than I had expected.

There was hardly any trash around the entrance, corridors, and other places that were prone to dirt.

No doubt thanks to my mother's hard work.

The interior was a good old Japanese house, with sliding doors and tatami mats still in use in many of the rooms.

"Stay here and be a good boy. Your mother will go and pack up your things."

I was put to sleep in what I thought was a bedroom in the back of the house.

Now that I was alone, I could sort out the situation again.

"Uuu(It's a bigger house than I thought. Looks like taxes are high).“

From the exterior of the building, I imagined it to be a famous family that had fallen into ruin.

They used to be powerful, but the waves of the times have swallowed them up.

However, the fact that they were able to maintain the building as it was when they were a prominent family in a crooked way suggests that they may have earned enough money.

"Wow (Then, what I should do from now on is to train for the future)"

With my worries gone, I decided to take action.

The goal, of course, was to become a celebrity in some way.

I hadn't found that path yet, but no matter what you do, your body is your capital. In the manga I read at that time, there was a development that showed how hard work from childhood can make you stand out from others.

I consciously moved my body, which was not moving satisfactorily, and tried my best to grow as much as I could --- before I knew it, I was asleep.

"Ohh(When did I fall asleep? Was the baby's body this poor?).“

Babies spend most of their days asleep.

I knew that, but I didn't expect to be so sleepy.

I closed my half-opened mouth and managed to regain my dignity as an adult.

I tried to look around to see where my mother was, but remembered that I couldn't move my head at all.

"Ahhh(it's inconvenient. I can't move at all even when I say exercise. Does this make sense? Oh, what's that?)"

I moved my eyes and neck as far as I could and could barely see anything but the ceiling.

It was moving slowly on the tatami. I should be the only one in the room at the moment.

In other words, that's .......

"Onyaah!( Rat?! Cockroach?! Hey, father, you should at least take care of the baby's room!).“
