Reincarnated as Enemies [Prologue]

Family

Steve opened his eyes in a small wooden room, laying in a cradle. He was surrounded by people he couldn't recognize nor see due to his blurry newborn vision. What he did saw was that everyone had black things on each side of their heads. He didn't know what those could be.

He saw that Aria wasn't with him. "We must have been separated", he thought.

Then he heard a young woman, who appeard to be the mother, saying with a worried voice, "Hmm... why isn't Shinto crying?".

"Oh... so I'm Shinto now.", He thought noticing how cool his new name was.

Then an old man said, "If a baby doesn't cry, it's because he holds a curse. We must kill him."

"Hey dad! We can't kill my son just like that!", a young man, who seemed to be Steve's new father said while Steve thought: "Wait what!? They will kill me just for that!? I must start crying now!". He started crying the moment he realized the danger he was in.

"Oh... It must have been my mistake. It's never good to make early assumptions", The old man said.

"Huh? You just did! I almost didn't last five minutes alive because of your early assumptions!", Steve thought angered while he kept crying.

Then the door opened. Two kids, a girl and a boyentered the room. They also had that black thing on each side of their heads. "Is Shinto awake?", the girl asked with a loud voice, while the boy nervously asked: "Can I... see him?"

"If he wasn't awake could he cry like this?", the father asked while the mother said, "Of course. Come see him"

"Ohh, he is so cute!", the girl said while the kid stared at him smiling.

She extended her index and put it in front of Steve's hand, which was responded by Steve grabbing it with his tiny baby hand.

"I think he likes you", said the mother smiling at the girl.

While all of this happened, Steve wondered: "Which race could I have rolled? Well, there are: humans, elves, dwarfs, beastfolk, monsters, dragons, driades, vampires, half humans of various types, demons and a lot more, so theres a 1/10 or less chances to become a demon. I should be safe"

While Steve was immersed in his thoughts his new sister was playing peek-a-boo with him, with Steve playing along so his new grandfather wouldn't think of killing him again.

"What a couple of cute red eyes you have.", His sister said. "It's a bit weird because none of us has red eyes.", she pointed.

"So I'm still a corrupted", Steve thought.

"He also has cute little horns.", said his brother.

"Horns?", Steve asked himself. "Wait... which race has horns? Humans don't, neither do elves, dwarfs, beastfolk, driades nor vampires. They seem very human-like so we aren't monsters. This leaves demons, dragons, and some half humans as my possible race.", He thought nervously. "My only chance to not be a demon is if my horns aren't black", he realized.

"Shinto? Are you ok?", asked his brother, noticing that he wasn't reacting to what they did.

"Agogei...", responded Steve trying to say that he was okay, but he couldn't modulate correctly.

"He tried to respond to Naiko!", exclaimed his mother.

"Gaiji, try to-", Said his father but he stopped. "Ohhh... I'm dumb. I forgot to heal his eyes", he said slapping his face.

"Dad, why do you have to heal Shinto's eyes?", asked Gaiji, Steve's sister.

"Did you know that babie's vision is blurry? I have to heal him so he can see like everybody else.", Said his father.
