"hbygdboonooksnjdh", immediately after I woke up I started talking. Or at the very least what I am currently calling my attempts to practise speaking words.

There really wasn't much to do. Or rather there really wasn't much that I could do, since I was still just 2 years old. As abnormal as I was to be reincarnated in a world where I knew fragmented pieces of the future and two different timelines, I was going to take it slow here...

...Okay! Maybe I'm just taking it slow, because I cried myself to sleep after finding out that these medicines have little effect on my healing. I suppose there's probably some logic in this. You know, my heals are already so great, but I'm having problems with repairing my body. So you're probably wondering how these enhanced healing dungeon plants are supposed to immediately help make me better by bounds. Well, I thought that maybe I'd learn something to upgrade my ability or find a companion to join me on my journey. I guess it just sucks to be me.

Right in the middle of the unfortunate reincarnation stories that have their protagonists suffer without much of a chance to get what could be called a happy ending and a story where the protagonist gets reincarnated with knowledge on the story there alongside cheats. Although, I want to call my God tier main ability a cheat skill, it's not. In a world full of potential abilities where you could live happily or perhaps with less hassle without an ability, having one you must learn to control is a hassle. Hell, my one has a supposed high level passive healing skill, but I can't use it alongside other abilities. I tried to once. When I was in the hospital I tried to use my abilities after experiencing the timelines Emma had to offer me. It resulted in another searing pain attacking me, and myself injuring myself. I needed my abilities to work sooner than later. Preferably before I had dungeon service at the age of 18.

Let's just say I've read some stories in my past about what happens to broken or useless ability users. Yeah... It's not pretty and having a lack of abilities related to time doesn't allow me to think about getting a redo.

A sigh escaped my lips between the incoherent babbling I was doing from the moment I woke up. My belly seemed to gurgle and the energy from the watching monsters flickered slightly. I moved my head slightly to the surrounding woods and had some nourishment passed back to me.

Some dug holes I made near the middle of the meadow, in the dip of the land, acted as a toilet for myself. I smelled slightly so after I finished I was going to move out, but a chorus of growling from the forest stopped me.

"ahhhhbuj!", my tiny hand hit the soil where no precious medicinal plants grew.

It was annoying that I couldn't find a water source to bathe in like Emma had done, but it's best not to push my luck against these monsters. So I went back to taking a medicinal plant and eating it slowly. This time I planned to improve my method of digesting the plants further. I was planning to experiment with my second ability's control and upgrading to upgrade the plant's healing energy. After this, I would focus on controlling and upgrading my healing abilities, as I focus on fixing my body. Next all I had to do was wait and see if my chance of activating the synergy skill would be good or not.

Even if my health doesn't improve by much I will stay and continue until all the medicinal herbs in the meadow are eaten by myself. Since the dungeon can't be affected by myself being born in the place of Emma I am aware that having myself come to this dungeon will have a different effect. However, the fact that the medicinal herbs will have remained untouched until Emma arrives in the dungeon won't change. So consuming all the medicinal herbs should not be met with any aversion from those that are watching me here.
