My Reincarnation As A Chicken

Day 1

'Ow… my head hurts like hell! I didn't imagine getting shot would be so damned painful. Damn, now I guess I'm going to die.'

…

'… huh? It doesn't hurt anymore? What happened? Last thing I remember I was at the ice cream parlour with Ken and Maya. Yeah, some random dude just came in there and started shooting. Ah. That's right, I got shot didn't I? Well that was anti-climactic. I always said I wanted to go out with a bang, I didn't mean it literally though.'

It was a bit dark and cramped. I could see faint outlines of a person walking by. I seemed to be in some sort of curtain, which meant I probably wasn't dead. Just in some hospital. If I moved, maybe they would see me and come cater for me. With that plan set, I began to shift.

'Super uncomfortable in here. Let me stretch out a bit.'

My body felt heavy and weak. I was tired, but I wanted to leave this case as soon as possible. I felt like I was suspended in something. I know I wasn't breathing through my nose, so how was I ok? My stomach. I could feel air entering my body through my stomach. That was weird wasn't it? Still not the problem here. I couldn't move. The only part that could move was my neck, so I used my head to hit the case.

I kept on hitting the case surrounding me with this weird mask on my face. It was almost like a dog muzzle.

As I pushed for hours non-stop, I could hear something cracking, and accompanied by those cracking noises, a bright light invaded the case, nearly blinding me. Still, I pushed through and finally broke free from the darkness.

Success had never been so blinding before. Sā sā, couldn't the world have welcomed me in a nicer way? My eyes hurt like hell, compelling me to shut them and blink rapidly. I fell out of my case onto the cold floor, my body wet and heavy.

[Reincarnation Process… Successful]

[Congratulations. Target has completed hidden quest: Birth of the Golden Chick]

[To congratulate Target, some higher beings have decided to gift Target]

I could hear a weird automatic voice resonating in my head, so I decided to open my eyes, even though my ear drums were pinging. I felt a bit dizzy so I simply shook my head and blinked a few more times. In front of me were screens with weird things written on them.

'What? A screen? What's happening right now? Re…in…carnation… pro…cess… successful? What is this?'

[Target has been blessed with unique skill [Evolver]]

[The Ancient Goddess **** has blessed Target]

[Target has been blessed with the unique skill [Voice of God]]

[Target has been given the unique skill [Analyst]]

At this point, my brain was trying to process a lot of things at a go, which should have led to me breaking to be honest. There was the mysterious screen in front of me and the weird voice in my head spewing complete crap. I could actually deal with those, I guess. Then there was my eyes. They were on the sides of my face, allowing me to see everything around me. I was horrified no need say.

I could see wet yellow feathers with orange scaly feet. I tried to move my legs, but the scaly feet moved instead. Not wanting to believe what I saw, I tried moving my wet, heavy, weak arm, which resulted in the wing moving.

'Huh?! No. What's going on? Why am I hearing a voice in my head? What are these weird screens? Why are my eyes on the sides of my face? Why do I have wings and scaly feet?'

As I was thinking, trying to cope with what was happening, a massive shadow loomed over me. I looked up and was met by crimson red eyes. It wasn't a beast though. They belonged to a cute girl.

'Sā sā, this is wack! Why am I looking at two massive red eyes? Why am I so small? Why the hell am I chicken!?'

I was starting to hyperventilate, my heart rate quickening and my breathing turning haggard. I let out large breaths and suffered to get in more. My ċhėst was hurting really bad and I was feeling dizzy. I had never had an asthma attack before. Was this how it felt? Maybe it wasn't, maybe it was. I couldn't care less. All I knew was that I was in pain.

Out of nowhere, a wave of calm hit me like this powerful gust of wind. I could feel my mind returning to normal and my breathing was stabilizing. I was able to organize my thoughts after.

'Holy shit! So first things first, I did die. But then, I've read of something called reincarnation, where you can be reborn as an animal or a person in your next life. So my next life was a chicken, huh? So disappointing. I want to cry right now!'

I fell on my buŧŧ and let out a heavy sigh.

'Still… the voice in my head. What is it? Some sort of sub conscience? Wait… can a sub conscience be active while I'm conscious? No… it sounds too automatic. Then what the hell-'

While I was thinking, a feminine voice came from the person bearing the two beautiful crimson red eyes. The owner of the voice was a girl who didn't look much older than fifteen. She had silver white hair which flowed wildly down to her mid back. She was looking in a different direction, making me look there as well. I saw the silhouette of a huge figure approaching us alongside this feeling that made me want to just run away.

A Stoic voice responded to her call in a weird way. This drew my attention to a large man in a white lab coat. He was a massive man that easily stood six foot five, with broad shoulders and dark skin. The man was bȧrė ċhėsted, wearing only shorts and sandals. He was bald and wore glasses, with a nasty claw scar over his right eye. As he came more into the light, he looked more like a Mexican wrestler than a scientist in my honest opinion.

'Did he fight a lion or something?! And what's with this feeling of powerlessness he gives off? I feel like I'm going to get squashed just being in the same room with him.'

"Da ghuo ikril des itde."

'What? What the hell kind of language is that?'

She then begun poking my ċhėst. It was really ticklish and I couldn't help but laugh. She had a serene smile has she looked at me. I could feel the man's gaze on me and I dared to leer back. I instantly regretted. His lifeless leafy green eyes were observing me with an expressionless face and I gulped. They seemed to glow faintly at me.

[Due the unique skill [Evolver] you have acquired the ability [Fear Resistance]]

'Eh? What just happened?'

"Ki? Ser? Vers way."

The massive man walked over to where I and the girl were. He crouched, then looked at me. He then put his hand to his chin, observing me like he had been doing. Now that I looked at him, he had grey hair growing on his face, like he had shaved.

[Would you like to use [Analyst] on the target]

A screen showed up in front of me.

'[Analyst]? What Is that?'
