Rebirth Merchant: Wonderful Space Hunting For Military Officer Chapter 1

Hi~ This is actually my first translated chapter, so if there's any mistakes or if you think there's any better words to replace any of the words below, do tell me in the comments!

And also, I'm only doing 3 chapters in advance first because I don't want other translation group to take over this novel when I'm busy with my finals. Sounds possessive/selfish, but yeah, that's just how much I want to translate this novel.

So after I'm done with my final, which is 6th May, I will be releasing at least 1 chapter per week (or if I'm procrastinating from my finals, I might have some release during the time that I'm supposed to be on hiatus; of course there might be times where it will be more than 1 chapter per week~)

The original raw is actually completed, so if I reach the part where it's supposed to be interconnected/cliffhang, I will have a ma.s.s release, so do antic.i.p.ate it!~

Translated + Edited: Winter Leaf

Chapter 1: Humiliating Rebirth

Kerchunk…. Kerchunk…. Wind howls by the ear as a train pa.s.sed through the tunnel.

Song Ye opened her eyes immediately and the blinding light entered her eyes. The movement and the shaking of the train on the railway under her body made her feel surreal for a moment.

She was supposed to be unconscious and in the face of an explosion under the sea, so how come she's here in the blink of an eye?

“Ssst…”

She raised her hand and rubbed her throbbing forehead and was surprised; not minding the heaviness in her head, she looked at her hands, feeling shocked.

When the explosion happened under the sea, she clearly remembers that her hands are blasted into smitherness, but right now, in front of her eyes, are a pair of small hands that are in a perfect condition. That's right, for someone who is near their thrities working as an a.s.sa.s.sin who has taken numerous life and faced uncountable hardships in her life, the hands in front of her does not overlap with the ones in her memory. 

The hands in front of her belongs to someone aged approximately 15 to 16 years old.

Suddenly, she felt something is off and touched her face. That small bone structure, youthful and bouncy skin made her heart jumped.

This is not her!

Song Ye creased her brow, the icy glance under the fringe looked around carefully.

Just now, she thought that she was brought onto the train by the organization, but after a careful observation of her surrounding, everything feels off.

The facilities of this train feels old – the seats, like back in the days, are all made from wood; the clothing of the people pa.s.sing by looks old-fashioned; the posters found in the coach are cartoon drawing that shows praises towards the motherland, the date on the poster is…. Song Ye widen her eyes and stand up in surprise, staring at the date on the poster without moving her eyesight away.

XX/XX/x.x.xX, isn't this 15 years ago?

As she stood up so suddenly, she felt dizzy and can only lean on the wall of the coach to stand properly. Moving her eyesight to her leg, she stopped and look at a army-green bag. The things in the bag are all dumped out, looking messy and tattered, but the schoolbadge and the information written on it can be seen clearly on the bag.

Junior High 3rd Year 5th Cla.s.s, Song Ye.

At that moment, Song Ye completely blanked out.

“Oi, Song Ye, who allowed you to stand up? Squat down now!”

When she was in a state of shock, an arrogant voice of a young girl suddenly appeared.

Song Ye looked at the source of the voice and saw three girls that had walked up to her at some point of the time. Wearing a shirt made of cotton and floral patterned pants with two plaits behind their head which made them look very old-fashioned and ugly. Following the appearance of these people, they have proven as the answer to what Song Ye had guessed.

Tang MeiLing, Zhu Shan, Zheng Feng, or known as San Zhong Three Beauties had played an important role in Song Ye's countable school life, of course, it's towards the negative side.

From what Song Ye remembered, she had never seen the faces of these three girls for the past 15 years.

That is to say, at this moment, at the place she's in currently, is the graduation trip on the train 15 years ago, which is also the place where her life was completely changed.

The G.o.d has made a huge joke out of her. Letting her face hardships for the past 30 years and ended her life under the sea to then reverse the time back to 15 years ago. Are they asking her to reminiscent about her past or asking her to make choices all over again?

She slightly narrowed her eyes, a cold light flashed through her eyes. No matter if this is just a dream or not, by giving her a second chance, she won't be the coward and weak Song Ye again.

“Oi, Song Ye, are you deaf? I told you to squat down and don't be a nuisance to us, don't you hear me?”

Looking at Song Ye standing there not moving at all, Tang MeiLing's face darkened, her voice that sounds like a shriek feels as if its about to pa.s.s through the coach.

The pa.s.sengers around don't want to care about what seem to be children fooling around, each of them sleeping or lying around as they suit with only a few of them open their eyes and watch as if it is none of their business.

Song Ye returned to her senses, her icy cold glance stare at the faces of the three of them. If she's not mistaken, in the graduation trip of the junior high for the 3rd years, Tang MeiLing trio have planned in advance to teach her a lesson. In the whole trip, she was either hit or scolded by them. Upon boarding the train, she was chased to the back of the train and was made to squat down, making her the laughing stock of everyone. To which that has caused her to be late when going off the train and be seperated from the group, kidnapped by the human traffickers and completely disappeared from the school.

Thinking about these 15 year-old kids, because of their small prank that has caused her to be in a miserable life for 15 years, Song Ye's heart felt cold, her glance has also become colder.

Being stared like that, Tang MeiLing can't help but feel shocked and scared, but the arrogant att.i.tude that she has towards Song Ye that has been rooted deeply into her, albeit foreced, made her calm herself down. Raising her nose and continuing to shriek,

“Keep your disgusting eyesight back, Song Ye. If you don't do as I say, I will make you suffer when we return to school.”

There's still one semester left until middle school entrance examination, she can, for sure, make Song Ye suffer a few rounds.

If it is the Song Ye 15 years ago, she might be so scared that her legs won't stop trembling and do as she said bonelessly. But it is a pity for them, as the one that stands before them is the Song Ye that has become an a.s.sa.s.sin for 15 years and won't even blink an eye when she's killing people. She felt nothing at a threat of this level.

If they want to play, then she will properly play with them all they want.

A light shimmered in her eyes for a moment, Song Ye turn around and duck into the toilet beside, looking as if she's running away due to fear.

The three facing her her earlier was surprised for a moment and snickered. A smile forming on her face, Tang MeiLing walked over without minding anything, “Still dare to run? Today I will let you know, how does it feel when your prayers can never reach the skies. Go, drag her out of there.”

At this age, students tend to imagine themselves as a boss, bullying someone as weak as Song Ye allow them to have a satisfying feeling of vanity. Feeling that way, Tang MeiLing felt her confidence reaches a level higher than never before.

But at the next second, while they are standing in front of the toilet entrance, the train  pa.s.sed through a tunnel at that exact moment, making the surrounding darken in an instant. Her hand that was reaching out to grab the k.n.o.b felt empty. During the time she was blanking out from confusion, there was a sudden force that pulled her into the toilet. Not only her, Zhu Shan and Zheng Feng was also pulled into the toilet as well.

During the time when the three of them was still in a state of confusion, Clunk Clank, out of a sudden something hit them hard on the head. It was so painful they eventually cried for their dad and mom,

“Ouch! It hurts! What is that? Stop! Ouch….”

Too bad for them, no matter how much they screamed, the echo and noise when the train pa.s.ses through the tunnel has covered their screams. With their head being hit to the point of swelling, the three pushes each other around in the narrow toilet; they either step on each other's foot or hit their own head against each other. When the train was about to exit the tunnel, the three then magnificiently fainted.

Song Ye exited the toilet and smoothly stuck a book on the k.n.o.b, she then turn around as if nothing happened and throw the wooden scoop aside. That scoop is the scoop that was left and to be used in the toilet, who would've thought that it can be used that conveniently.

It was only just a slight exercise and her arms felt tired. With that in mind, she has decided to train herself upon returning. Her difference in strength now and her ability in her past life is too much of a gap.

Although she don't want to be a puppet-like a.s.sa.s.sin, Song Ye still knows about how dark the world can be, and the best way to survive is by relying on herself.

Looking at the sights that pa.s.sed by through the window, the supposedly cold face can't help but let out a smile.

Since she is able to control her life for a second time, this time, she won't be defeated that easily.
