Re Zero The Choice Of Zero

My name is Natsuki Subaru

I've been neglecting my life for the past 2 years.

The thing is. I am a neet.

My father excelled at everything he did, and so, people expected me to be as good as my father.

And I hated it, why can't I have my own life. Why do all people expect me to be the best.

And now. Natsuki Subaru.

Is getting beaten up by a street thugs.

....

A few hours ago.

"Hmm what else should I buy?"

I looked at the shelves thoughtfully.

Natto. Hmm. Nope let's go with this.

I walked towards the counter. Behind the counter, stood a smiling man.

That's a lie of course.

Behind the counter stood a bored teenager and he looked tired.

"It's 373 yen" said the youth in a monotone voice.

I silently open my wallet and look into it.

It's almost full to the point that money will fly out of it any second.

That's also a lie.

"-เll รคשє"

Hm what was that.

I turn around in confusion. But there was no one behind me.

My parents weren't rich, but our house was quite big.

They still have some money to spare, but I receive very little from them.

Maybe because I chose this way of life.

"¡ ખ¡ℓℓ ઽα√૯ yѳષ"

My head hurts a bit..

Damn. I guess, playing games 24/7 would make anyone hallucinate.

"Thank you, come again."

I walk out of the shop and gaze at the moon.

I wonder what life would I lead if I didn't choose to become a neet.

"[I̲̲̅̅ ̲̲̅̅W̲̲̅̅I̲̲̅̅L̲̲̅̅L̲̲̅̅ ̲̲̅̅S̲̲̅̅A̲̲̅̅V̲̲̅̅E̲̲̅̅ ̲̲̅̅Y̲̲̅̅O̲̲̅̅U̲̅]"

"What the hell was that!?"

This time, I look around me in a panic. But to my surprise, not only was the shop gone, but so was the moon.

The sun is up again.

What is happening to me.

"Wh-what is this? Where am I?"

"GROUND DRAGONS, GROUND DRAGONS. BUY 2 FOR THE PRICE OF 1"

"FRESH VEGETABLES, FRESH FRUITS"

"THE BEST BLACKSMITH AROUND.

SMALL PRICE FOR REPAIRING EQUIPMENT AND HIGH QUALITY PRODUCTS"

Did I get summoned into another world?

"Oooooh that's so amazing!"

I roared my lungs out while scaring nearby people away.

But who summoned me, and why?

I take a walk around the stalls.

There are so many things I've never seen.

However, there are a some problems.

Number 1. I can't trust anyone, and since i don't know most of these products I can't buy them recklessly.

Number 2. I don't have money. I can't use the money I have here which is a solid turn off.

Number 3. I can't read anything. Although, I can communicate with people and they understand me, I can't read.

Number 4. What do I do now? I don't know who summoned me but, I expected some kind of ceremony or something where I would receive a special hero ability. But so far, it looks like I don't have any.

I've tried some magic chants or some kicks in the air but it's not working. There is no way that someone has summoned me without a special ability. I might die without one.

Oh

There is a shop with normal things. Thank god something I recognize.

"Hello how much do these apples cost?"

"Ey, those are appas not apples."

Said the tall man.

Damn is this guy on something? A guy that muscular is a fruit seller.

"Yer clothes are weird, are ya a traveler?"

"Yeah yeah, something like that"

Talking with a more manly man then I am caused me to feel embarrassed.

But ey, I still have plenty of time to grow my muscles and he is already old.

"Do you take this kind of money here?"

I put the 10 yen coin into his hand.

"What the hell is this crap, this ain't money, are ya broke? Then get out of here you are wasting my time!"

Woah that took an interesting turn.

I turned around and walked away.

Let's try and gather some information. I went into a small shop and there i saw

some n.a.k.e.d furries. Oh great my luck is perfect.

"""KYAAAA"""

"Smack"

"Ouch"

"This is seriously bad, how could I know that that was a women's bathroom."

Damn it, what a shitty luck. If I knew that I would get transported here, I would at least prepare some things.

As I said that I walked into a bar an-

"This is only demi human bar. GET OUT"

"SMACK"

"Aaah f.u.c.k you"

This world is dumb I want to go back home.

As I was scratching my cheek and nose I tripped over a stair and i fell over the ledge straight into the water

.......

"Ah as if this day can't get any worse"

I lamented as I sat down on the ground in defeat.

My clothes are wet, I am wet, I will catch cold and die somewhere. Great plan genius.

I take out my Nokia and check if it still works and it does, but my phone calls are not getting through, no signal hmm.

"Aaaah where is the beautiful girl that summoned me"

"Thunk" "Thunk"

The sound of footsteps caught my attention.

"Aaah you are finally he-"

"Da heck who is this clown."

3 people showed up in front of me. The first one looked like a little kid, the second one looked like a B-Movie villain and the third one looked like an ordinary thug.

"Hey clown, Give us your f.u.c.k.i.n.g money!"

B villain took me by my collar and threatened me.

"Tch what a bad luck. Looks like it's time for a coercion event."

"Hah what are you talking about? Drop all of your things on the ground if you don't want to get hurt!"

"MOVE IT"

A little girl with blonde hair showed out of nowhere and started yelling our way.

"Oh was it you who summoned me?" I ask full of anticipation.

"Summon you... what? No who are you? Why wou- oh I see..

"I am sorry but I can't help you out of this.. I don't have time. See ya."

Little girl ignored us, jumped on the roof, and ran away.

"Tch Felt again. Almost spoiled our fun"

"Let's strip him n.a.k.e.d and throw him out of the alley"

"How about just taking his money, we can't be that savage or else the knights might come after us."

The three thugs were deciding what to do with me.

I think that I can beat them.

I was summoned here, that means I definitely have some kind of hidden power. Maybe I just need to awaken it.

I resolved myself to a first fight in my life.

"Let's go f.u.c.kers"

"""Huh"""

I moved towards the guy that looked the strongest and tried punching him in the face.

"Aaargh my face you bastard, you will pay for this"

He flew away. Wow it looks like I really have some kind of power.

"Ouch I didn't know that after punching someone my hand would hurt so much."

As the big guy was wailing on the floor I jumped towards the midget and I kicked him with my full power .

"Argh it's broken, its broken. My RIBS ARE BROKEN"

"ALRIGHT!! MY ADRENALINE IS SURGING BRING IT ON!"

With an insane excitement I dash towards the B-Movie villain with an intent to hit him just as hard as the other two buuuuuut.

He pulled out 2 knives out of his pockets and my heart stopped moving for a second.

" I am really sorry, my bad, I am sorry"

I ramble in embarrassment and fear.

But the B-Movie villain just sneers and kicks me in my stomach.

"Aargh. Help, save me"

I plead to the air. I could fight them, however a normal human can't go against knives.. There was nothing i could do.

The other two robbers got up from the ground and started kicking me as well.

"ARGHH"

"HOW IS IT NOW YOU BASTARD"

And then. I've heard the voice of my savior.

"That's enough kids"
