Life Simulator, Hunter Edition

The main story is written in first person.

Short blurb:

Reborn as a baby in another world, I became an orphan before I was even eight. Watch me use a life simulator to make my way through this other world, dodge the expendable side character's death flag, and become the strongest of all, kicking the Zoldycks, punching the Phantom Troupe, and pointing my sword at the Chimera Ant King!

Full blurb:

After transmigrating, I became a newborn baby in another world, and got a life simulator System along with me.

[Starting your life simulation now...]

[Age 0: You were born a girl. Your loving parents treasured you and doted on you. They named you Itania, meaning “as brilliant and precious as a diamond.”

Happiness +10, Constitution +10]

[Age 1: With your parents' encouragement, after failing again and again, you learned to walk on your own. Your parents took a picture of you to capture this milestone in your growth.

Happiness +2, Constitution +3]

[Age 2: You inherited your parents' good looks perfectly. You were very cute and very clever.

Looks +10, Intelligence +5]

[Age 3: Your parents held a party to introduce you to their friends. Before the party began, your mother seemed to be waiting for someone. In the end, the hopeful look on her face gradually turned to disappointment... Fortunately, you and your father comforted her, and she soon cheered up.

At the party, you received many presents. One of your mother's friends, a man named Ging Freecss, gave you a beautiful emerald bracelet.

Happiness +2, Wealth +3, Luck +5]

[Age 4: Your parents took you deep into the mountains to visit a friend who lived in seclusion there. You met two children from an ethnic minority group, Kurapika and Pairo. They were both very good-looking, and you formed a deep friendship with them.

Happiness +3, Constitution +3]

[Age 5: Your father went missing. Before he disappeared, he sent a letter home. After reading it, your mother kept crying in secret. One day, she hurriedly moved with you to Meteor City. You didn't even have time to say goodbye to your friends...

Happiness -3, Family Background -5]

[Age 6: Your mother seemed to have fallen ill. She took you to see a priest with mysterious powers who could treat her. You tried to eavesdrop from the doorway, but all you heard was your mother's quiet sobbing... You realized something terrible might have happened, something you knew nothing about.

That same year, you met a group of interesting children at an orphanage in Meteor City, and you became good friends.

Happiness +1, Intelligence +10, Family Background -3]

[Age 7: Not long afterward, your father's Hunter friend brought back news of his death. Your mother was devastated by your father's passing. She took to her bed, miserable day after day, and eventually died of illness during a cold spring. You became an orphan. You were overwhelmed with grief.

Happiness -30, Family Background -20]

[Age 8: After both your parents died, your family's circumstances took a sharp turn for the worse. The money your mother left behind was not enough to support you, so the nuns took you to the orphanage where your friends lived, and you moved in with them.

Before she died, your mother left you a note and a letter. She told you not to leave Meteor City. If you couldn't survive there after her death, you were to call the number on the note, and someone from the Zoldyck family would take you away from Meteor City.

But you don't want to leave your friends, or the place where your mother rests, so you have no intention of calling that number.

Happiness +5, Constitution -1]

[Age 9: Your friend Sarasa was brutally murdered. Her body was stuffed into a sack and hung from a tree branch, and there was nothing you could do but cry.

Your friends' eyes burned with rage. They swore to avenge her.

Not long afterward, a man named Silva Zoldyck came to see you. It turned out your mother was from the world-famous Zoldyck family of assassins, and was the younger sister of the current head of the family.

The family had never approved of your parents' marriage, but he still acknowledged you as a Zoldyck by blood. He wanted to take you back to the Zoldyck family, and promised to honor your mother's final wish in her letter and raise you well.

Overcome with grief, you thought of Sarasa. If you had contacted him and brought him here sooner, might your friend have been spared?]

If the future could be foreseen, if everything could be done over again, you would surely make the right decision... wouldn't you?

Then, begin the life simulation.

Story order: Home → Meteor City → The Zoldyck Family → Exploring the World

The simulator, the protagonist, and her mother are all higher-dimensional beings who transcend the Hunter world. Strictly speaking, the abilities the simulator gives the protagonist are not Nen. They exist beyond this power system.

Important notes:

1. There are lots of original elements, and characters may be out of character. Please stop reading if that bothers you.

2. This is a power fantasy, and the protagonist won't be put through misery. The simulator is the protagonist's biggest golden finger, and she will become the strongest through it.

3. The main story is written in first person, but the simulations use second person, and the novel contains a lot of text describing the simulations.

4. I wanted to write a simulator story. Basically, the protagonist uses the simulator to foresee possible futures, avoid risks, and change her fate, while also changing the fates of the people she cares about.

5. The simulator's predictions are based on what the protagonist thinks, sees, and knows at the time of each simulation. They are branches leading to countless possible outcomes in parallel worlds, and are affected by the protagonist's understanding of things.

6. The protagonist, Itania, transmigrated but doesn't know the story. Her mother, Zanni, is a transmigrator who does know the story.

7. Actually, the Zoldycks are not related by blood to the protagonist, Itania, or her mother. There is no incest or inappropriate messaging. This will come up in the story, so I'll reveal no more for now ˶>ᗜ

Theme: I will live happily, carrying your love with me
