Chapter 2: Awakening

Carrying the supplies into a warehouse deep in the sewers, the moonlight rats returned to their nests after a busy night of eating.

However, in the body of the Moonlight Rat Leader, an unprecedented process is unfolding.

In its tiny heart, a silvery white droplet of water flicked its invisible tentacles, trapping a translucent moonlight rat.

"Squeak!"

Who are you!

Why is it in my body!

Get out, get out of here!

Questioning, biting, struggling, struggling for its own existence, the translucent moonglow rat struggled, but to no avail.

The silver-white droplet had no mercy, it kept tightening the invisible tentacles, and as the tentacles tightened, a little bit of light like fireflies continued to float out from the bound moonlight rat, and was absorbed by the silver-white droplets.

As a result, as the points of light continued to overflow and were continuously absorbed by the silver-white water droplets, the body of the translucent moonlight rat became more and more transparent, and even the struggle became weak.

Eventually, the translucent moonlight rat trembled and stopped struggling, and its body, which was already close to colorlessness, suddenly exploded, turning into countless points of light, all pouring into silver-white water droplets.

"Hiccup~!"

It was as if the fat man who had eaten had a full burp, and the silver-white water droplets suddenly swelled, and began to slowly elongate, twist, and deform, and finally turned into a moonlight mouse with smart eyes and a silver-white condensed body, quietly squatting in the center of the heart.

Then, he woke up!

............

"Squeak!"

There really is a soul after death!

And it can really be reborn!

With emotion, Ron crawled out of the nest paved with soft fur and carefully began to crawl through the abandoned sewer pipes that belonged to the leader of the moonglow rats.

As if in his nascent state again, Ron stepped forward, trembling and moving his limbs.

One step, two steps, three steps...... Each step requires a firm mind, and each step is adjusting the rhythm.

Thirteen steps in a row, step by step more and more relaxed, step by step more and more flexible, by the thirteenth step, Ron had basically mastered this body, at this time, he had time to start carefully examining this body that already belonged to him.

The supple brown hair hung all over his body, and the muscles flowed under the skin, and with a slight movement, Ron could feel the vigorous vitality surging through his body, just like the youthful flesh of a twenty-four-year-old human male he once had in another world.

"Squeak!"

It's good to have a body!

It's been a long time since I've felt this real!

Squatting up, Ron stretched hard, lamenting his luck.

Life and death are a cycle, constantly rotating in separate worlds. But each cycle is part of a larger cycle, intertwined at certain special moments.

Originally, Ron was supposed to be reincarnated in his own world, but the moment of his death was the moment when a large cycle connected the small cycle of the original world, so Ron crossed the barrier of the world and came to a new world that he had never seen before.

"Squeak!"

It's a pity that it's a moonlight mouse!

If only I could be a dragon!

After examining himself with emotion, Ron raised his head and cast his gaze around.

Although it was extremely dark all around, the dark vision of the Moonlight Mouse itself allowed Ron to take in everything around him clearly, and contrast it with the memories he had just absorbed.

Neatill, clean, warm and luxurious.

The soft fur of the nest comes from the cloudy fox of the cloudy mountains, named for its white, fluffy, cloud-like fur, which is so gentle and warm that only the most seasoned hunter can occasionally catch one.

The soft bread on the stone slab in front of the nest comes from the Art of Baking cake shop, which is famous throughout Ascatla, and it is not uncommon for wealthy merchants living in the borough to send their servants to the market area and wait for hours at the door of Art of Baking to buy freshly baked bread and desserts.

Next to the soft bread is a small slightly notched earthenware bowl containing clean water, which is inconspicuous, but the colony of moonshine rats is located deep in the tangled and swirling sewers beneath Askatra, where there is no shortage of water, but it is still quite difficult to find a clean water.

Then, Ron's gaze continued to look around, taking in a hill that shimmered with a metallic sheen.

Obviously, in addition to warm nests, delicious food, and clean drinking water, the original moonlight rat leader also has some unique rat hobbies. On the side of the nest, piles of vandas, and tarans, formed a large mountain, and several danta (Am's gold coins) lay lazily on top, clustered with a pearl (Am's platinum).

"Squeak!"

Don't think about it so much, rebirth is already the greatest boon!

Whether it's being reborn as a moonshine rat or something else, what I need to think about now is how to survive better!

Absorbing the light point of the transformation of the soul of the Moonlight Rat Leader, Ron not only occupied the body of the Moonlight Rat Leader, but also accepted the memories entrained in the Moonlight Rat Leader's soul.

After examining himself and his surroundings, Ron slouched into the cloud fox's fur, squinted his eyes and began to comb through the memories he had just received.

Ferron, Am, Askatra, Full Moon, Plan, Challenge......

In view of the characteristics of the Moonlight Rat's intelligence that changes drastically with the moon's full and short periods, the memory of the Moonlight Rat leader also shows clear and vague segments.

Most of the vague memories are eating, sleeping, reproducing, and moving, and the clear memories are that the leader of the Moonlight Rats commanded the Moonlight Rats to carry out various predatory and foraging activities during the full moon, and discussed with his deputies the plan of action for the next full moon.

From his clear memory, Ron was given quite a bit of information about where he was, what race he belonged to, and his place in the group.

Compared with Ron's previous life, which lasted from birth to death, the life of the Moonlight Rat Leader was much shorter, and the memory only had thirty cycles from vague to clear and then to fuzzy, and according to the calculation of one full moon a month and twelve full moons a year, the Moonlight Rat Leader has only survived for less than three years now.

So, it only took a little time for Ron to comb through the memories of the Moonlight Rat leader, throwing aside the vague memories in them, and the clear memories were incorporated into Ron's own memory system after sorting them out.

When Ron's eyes opened again, he had already absorbed the memories of the leader of the moonlight rats, and then, a pang of hunger traveled up his esophagus from his abdomen.

So, Ron moved his body, crawled to the fragrant soft bread produced by [The Art of Baking], and found a place that had not been touched, clean and intact with fillet and munched on it.

Then, having filled his stomach, Ron drank some water, turned and burrowed into the nest, burying his round body in the cloud fox's long fur, and fell into a deep sleep.
