Description

Dewa Emon is a successful 40-year-old Japanese civilian who has come to be known throughout the world as the world's best programmer. Having developed brilliant ideas and programs, Emon created things that humans have dreamed of, like AI's with human-like brains and a realistic VR headset.

Although he is considered a billionaire, for each company that he joins, they ask a childish ice breaker question to him:What power would you want if you were a superhero?

Dewa Emon's answer to this question is unique and so far away from the norm that people chuckle at his response, but it doesn't really bother him. The power he has always wanted was to create programs that could alter the world,World's Programming.

No one gets Emon's reasoning but whenever he gets the chance, he tells the whole story. That said, he's a lonely person with no friends nor relationships so the amount of time he gets to talk like this is little to none.

Emon is currently working with a company to developed real teleportation. He finishes his design but on his way home, he gets run over by a train!

Now, in front of an unknown being, he is judged and been given a chance to live in another world with a power of his choosing. Without needing a minute to think about it, he tells the entity his power.

"I wantWorld's Programming! The power to create powers that can alter the real world!"

    The lure of programming the world pulled me in, but the concept of an overpowered 5 year old orphan überkinder running around killing things with a sword or club breaks immersion. Especially when the adults show no concern and orphanages don't seem to exist.
    Your writing after the "reboot" was much improved and I'll be following you in case you release something else in the future.

    40 year old genius, world shaping programmer who has all the world's wealth at his fingertips is somehow also bullied by his peers Who the hell is your peer, programming Jesus? Whatever,  fine, I'm willing to watch a character grow a spine that they should have had all along by any logic. But, upon being reborn, the MC goes half a day without realizing he's become a 4 year old and then perverts out the instant he meets a 4 year old princess, nervious because he has written his own healing program in such a way the means he has to k-k-kiss her, ooowh nuu it's his first kissy-wissy with a female uwu.
    That's just the part that skipped me out enough to leave a review. I was ready to stop reading when he, a lone 4 year old in a world of monsters, ran TOWARD a caravan of humans getting absolutely slaughtered by monsters he could not identifying. This 40 year old. Who had just been murdered. Ran toward probable death with no pre-planning. Because "he couldn't live with himself" if he did nothing. Garbage.
    Although the conceit of the story is that he's been viciously bullied for years because he answers a completely innocuous yet for some reason universal icebreaker question wrong, that isn't the reason no one likes this idiot. That the first day of first grade ruined his life is complete BS. I'm glad he got murdered and died a virgin.
