What is the afterlife?
'Well there are a lot of answers, some dumb and some stupid. Though what I didn't expect was that it's perpetual boredom.'
The boy mused, he couldn't tell how long it's been, as he had long lost track of time. He had no body, he was simply a consciousness floating in the weird space between life and death.
But appearing in his sight, was a small light.
'L-light???'
The soul didn't have time to think, as the light enveloped him whole.

I opened my eyes- 'wait, eyes?' I looked at my body, it was back.
"Yeah, surprised?"
The voice came from below, I looked down and... 'is that a mouse sitting behind a desk?'
"I'm not a mouse."
'It read my thoughts?' I thought in surprise.
"*sigh* i'm Jerry, you were lucky enough to get chosen for a reincarnation."
'Jerry? So that's why he looks like the mouse from Tom & Jerry... wait, reincarnation?'
The mouse ignored me as several large wheels appeared.
"So Basically, you spin the wheels, so a random world, power, and trait/item."
I gathered my thoughts before replying to the mouse. "So I just... spin it?"
The mouse replied.
"Pretty much, it's based on luck so you could very well end up in Genshin impact with cumkinesis and a condom like the last guy."
'What the fuck?'
——
I went to the first wheel, landing on a good world is essential, because imagine landing on the Marvel Zombie's world, I'd be fucked.
I spun the wheel with all my might, watching it blur past a milion worlds a second. Then it slowed down and stopped... on Warhammer 40k. 'NO NO NO NO NO NO NO.'
Then Jerry sneezed, the blast wiping off a nearby galaxy. But also managing to push the wheel into Marvel.
'That was scary...'
I thought to myself before quickly spinning the next wheel, a strong power was essential.

DING: Teleportation & Telekinesis
"What?"
Jerry deadpanned and looked closer, turns out the wheel stopped between teleportation and telekinesis.
"You're lucky, kid."
I ignored his salty expression, turning to spin the trait wheel.

Ding: Demi-God
You are the child of a god, which one? Who knows, could be anyone, chances are, even if they don't know about your existence, maybe you will get a doting mother when they find out or get Kronos'd. After you discover your lineage and awaken your ability this trait will be replaced by it.
'YESSSS.'
"You lucky bastard."
Jerry grumbled.
"Off you go."
'Wai-'
I fell through the floor, my surroundings changing into a clear blue sky. Though I had no chance to admire the view as I fell straight into a trash dumpster.
'What the fu-'
I checked my pockets, I arrived with papers of my existence and my previous identity, thank you Jerry.
'Atleast I have an identity, now what year is it?'
I looked around at the vastness of new york city.
