Reincarnation as Lower Rank Five in Demon Slayer

In a ward of a famous hospital, a promising young man, who should have had a bright future, is now lying on a gray hospital bed.

The boy on the bed had a pale face, as lifeless as the white clouds on a cloudy day. His life was like a flower about to wither, and he could die at any moment.

As the boy's health deteriorated, his life began its countdown, and he had only a few months left to live.

"Am I going to die?!" the boy asked, looking up.

The attending physician, wearing a yellow protective suit, said, "Sigh—! I'm sorry, with current medical technology, we cannot treat the genetic damage caused by nuclear radiation."

"Your current condition is the best that our hospital can do."

"Really? I understand!" the boy said dejectedly.

His gaze swept past the doctor in protective gear and fell upon the vibrant life outside the window. Clutching the blankets tightly, the boy took a deep breath, as if making a decision.

"Dr. Liu! I want to have euthanasia. I don't want to die in agony with my cells rotting all over my body. After all, that kind of death is too gruesome =_=."

The boy stared intently at Dr. Liu in front of him.

Looking at the pale-faced but determined-looking boy on the hospital bed, Dr. Liu asked with concern:

"Li Lei, don't give up so easily. Maybe in a while, a technology that can cure your genetic damage will appear in the world!"

"Dr. Liu, there's no need to say anything. I know my own health condition very well."

"It's impossible for a technology to cure me to emerge, after all, this isn't a typical genetic disease."

Looking at Dr. Liu, Li Lei spoke in a low but firm tone.

Looking at the boy who already seemed to have a death wish, Dr. Liu didn't know what to say. After all, the genes damaged by nuclear radiation were currently incurable by medical technology.

The clock on the wall ticked slowly.

"One second, two seconds, three seconds..."

Five minutes passed in a state of utter silence, almost deathly stillness.

"Do you have any wishes now? Tell me, and I will report to my superiors, who will try their best to make them come true!"

"Dr. Liu said to Li Lei."

Li Lei knew that Dr. Liu's promise meant that as long as his wish wasn't too outrageous, he could help her fulfill it.

After all, it was thanks to their actions that the casualties from this nuclear radiation leak were minimized.

Here's what happened: A month ago, around 4 a.m., a car accident occurred. The accident was caused by two unidentified individuals experiencing drug withdrawal while driving, causing them to go straight instead of turning, resulting in their vehicle colliding with a wall.

An ordinary car accident occurred, but the items inside the car were anything but ordinary.

The car accident caused a silver metal box, measuring 20 meters in length, width, and height, to fly out of the window. It smashed open where Li Lei was fishing, and the highly radioactive material inside spilled out.

Curious, Li Lei stepped forward, picked it up, and saw that the box was marked with radioactive symbols.

Li Lei initially thought it was fake, and given the car accident nearby, he didn't take it seriously. But just as he was about to rush forward to help the people involved in the accident, he suddenly noticed his nose was bleeding! And it wouldn't stop. At that moment, Li Lei started to panic.

The radioactive material in the silver box was real! Li Lei knew he was finished.

Li Lei never expected that the radioactive material was real, even though he knew how dangerous a nuclear radiation leak could be.

Immediately put the radioactive material back into the box, call the police to explain the situation, and wait for rescue at the spot.

Because Li Lei knew very well that he, who was in close contact with radioactive materials, was now a source of radiation.

With a "bang"

Just then, a loud crash came from the direction of the car accident. Without even looking, it was clear that the two men were no longer alive.

Looking at the site of the explosion, Li Lei was speechless. "Fine! My revenge is complete!" ┐(∵)┌

Shortly after Li Lei finished making the call, professionals arrived to address the nuclear leak, and Li Lei was taken to the hospital for treatment.

Li Lei looked at Dr. Liu earnestly and said, "My wish is to give my parents some money so they can live comfortably in their old age. That's all."

Dr. Liu: "Okay! I understand, and I will arrange for euthanasia as well."

Dr. Liu: "Is there anything else you haven't finished wishing for?"

Li Lei smiled and replied, "No, that's all!"

After speaking, Li Lei raised his head and looked out the window. The scene outside the window fell into Li Lei's empty eyes, but it left no color.

In his empty eyes, he saw birds flying across the sky, sunlight turning into shadow, and the bright clear sky giving way to a long night, with only the stars twinkling in the night sky.

"Is it already dark? Time really flies!" Li Lei said to himself as he looked at the starry night sky.

Meanwhile, Dr. Liu, who was wearing a yellow hazmat suit, had already left.

Three days later, Li Lei, pale-faced, lay in bed, watching the doctors in yellow protective suits preparing.

At this moment, Dr. Liu, wearing a yellow hazmat suit, walked over and said to Li Lei:

"Li Lei, we will take good care of your parents. And are you really not going to inform them of your death?"

Li Lei smiled and replied, "No, thank you. Please keep it a secret for as long as you can. Thank you in advance."

"How long after euthanasia can I start? My whole body is burning with pain. My hair is starting to fall out, and my skin is showing red and swollen spots. The most serious problem is that my right hand is starting to ulcerate."

"Dr. Liu, I really don't want to die a painful and ugly death on a road where I'm certain to die!"

Dr. Liu said, "I understand. Euthanasia will begin immediately. We will use the least painful medication so that you can pass away without pain."

At this moment, a doctor wearing a yellow hazmat suit walked over with a syringe filled with an unknown liquid and said to Li Lei on the hospital bed:

"Li Lei, the euthanasia is about to begin. Do you have anything to say before you end?"

“No, you begin,” Li Lei said to him.

After receiving confirmation from Li Lei, the doctor with the syringe began injecting the medication into Li Lei's body. As the medication was injected, Li Lei slowly lost his sense of his own body's existence.

At this moment, the fear of death and the fragility of life are very obvious.

"Am I going to die? I'm so unwilling to accept this! My life has only just begun."

"drop--"

At this moment, as his heart stopped beating, his brain lacked oxygen, his vision went black, and Li Lei felt a lightness in his body as his soul fell into that infinite darkness.

In an unknown space, a wisp of thought was fluctuating, as if speaking.

"Is anyone there? Or is there anything? Give me some kind of response!"

After the fluctuation was emitted, there was no response in the space.

"Ugh! What's wrong with me? I'm dead, but not completely dead! I've been in this space for a while now, and there's no sign of my consciousness fading away. Am I going to stay in this space forever? Like Kars during his space travels, will I stop thinking?"

"I don't want to!" Li Lei shouted.

"Did I blow up the Milky Way in my past life, or did something to destroy the Earth? Why is God treating a kind person like me like this!" Jumping thoughts echoed in the space.

At this moment, a crack appeared in the space.

"Huh! What's this? A spatial rift. Let me float closer and take a look."

"(●?●) Wow! This spatial rift is really beautiful, it has a captivating beauty, it feels like I'm about to be sucked in! Oh! This feeling of being sucked in is so real! (???)"

"Huh? -- Really???"

Li Lei took a deep breath and said, "This is terrible!"

"what--"

As Li Lei let out his last scream, he was instantly sucked away by the spatial rift that had just appeared.

At this moment, the space returned to calm as consciousness departed, and the consciousness that had been absorbed disappeared without a trace.

……

In the darkness, in a small courtyard, Li Lei regained consciousness from his dizziness, shaking his still aching head.

When Li Lei felt better, he looked around at the houses surrounding him. Unlike the real scene, a small courtyard with an anime-style decor came into view.

"Hmm! It seems I've been transported into an anime! I just don't know which anime I've been transported into."

The eyes have a 360-degree field of vision with no blind spots, providing twice the field of vision of the previous 120-degree system.

Just then, a gust of wind blew by, rustling the leaves of the trees nearby, and you could hear the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves.

"Hmm! My ears are fine, except for my eyes. Next is my body... sigh! Why can't I feel my body?"

"In all the time-travel novels I've read, the previous time-travelers all had a physical body after they transmigrated! Why is it that when I transmigrated, it wasn't like that at all?!"

I want a refund. This isn't the time travel format I wanted.
