  Summary

  I died a nobody and I was born a nobody, in that order.

  I never bothered to learn the language of the country I died fighting a war in, but not learning this one is kind of biting me in the ass. Maybe if I’d bothered to learn Japanese after I was reborn, I wouldn’t have been surprised by the magic.

  Or the giant talking animals. Or the wizards with headbands.

  Honestly, I’m not sure things can get much weirder. But I’m tired of watching the people I love die, so I’m going to do what I do best: shoot my problems.

  And I don’t really care if these “ninjas” think it’s barbaric.
