Marcus was many things...a man, a hard worker, a loyal friend, and before this he was a little short of 7 feet tall.

He was not however very prideful so when the offer was made to carry him part of the way back to the village he accepted it graciously.

Its not like he was feeling ashamed that he had to borderline run to keep up with his female acquaintances or anything like that.

So here he was being carried by like a Chihuahua in the crook of Millie's arm as she moved through the tall grass pit...again he felt zero shame over such a thing...none at all.

However despite being carried at roughly chest level Marcus was still a below most of the grass in fact the girls' heads were barely out of the grass.

But unlike Marcus's first trip into the tall grass he wasn't attacked or being chased or being drugged via magic darts so he really could look around and really take in the sea of waving blades.

Ah but the sea passes quickly when when you have legs longer than half a foot, give or take a few inches and this was confirmed after a few minutes when Mize spoke up.

"We should be coming up to the edge of the pit soon." Millie nodded and hummed slightly in response.

Meanwhile Marcus began to think presumably since Millie was here Marry must also be looking for me...how will they call her back will Millie have to chase after or is there a spell?

After a few seconds of thought Marcus spoke "hey how are you going to get your sister back to the village?"

Millie looked down at him for a moment as a bright smile crossed her face before she spoke "we have this..." she paused for a moment and reached under her top and produced a...Marcus flinched at the sight of the harmonica that Millie had produced as she started talking again "it's a magic tool made by one of the reincarnated heroes."

Marcus wanted to speak up tell her that that specific instrument was...not particularly liked back in his world too many idiots tried playing that instrument without actually knowing how but Millie seemed so excited so he thought better of it and kept his mouth shut and watched her bring it to her mouth.

However when she blew into it no noise came out instead a small ghostly rabbit appeared in front of them as Millie put the harmonica away.

"Please tell Marry that I found him and that we are heading home." after she spoke the rabbit nodded and bounced away running on air.

Marcus hummed slightly maybe he could convince them to give him one of those.

"So what do you think, pretty cool right?" Asked Millie somewhat smugly.

Marcus smiled slightly and replied "Y-yeah I...its great that is interesting though why doesn't it make noise?"

Millie gave an awkward smile and answered "Reportedly the hero said that he hated the noise the instrument made but liked the look of it so he engraved it with runes to absorb the wind and mana pushed into it preventing the noise and summoning the messenger spirit."

Marcus sighed in relief before continuing "Oh so are there any that make noise?"

Millie gave an awkward smile as she nodded "Yes there are ones that make noise because they are still designed like ones form the hero's world so without the runes it would act as a regular harmonica."

Marcus felt his face scrunch up with a frown before he forced them straight again there was time to criticize the instrument later.

"So Mister fox what was your life like before you were reincarnated?" asked Mize suddenly drawing the attention of both Millie and Marcus from their left.

"Ok first off my name is Marcus keys and honestly..." Marcus paused as a wave of foreboding rolled over him and he was hit with a wave of drowsiness and before he could make a noise of protest he blacked out.

Mize and Millie pov

The girls both yelled in surprise when the newly minted Marcus Key suddenly flopped over like a dead fish and to their collective surprise he began to shrink Mize immediately realized what had happened the reincarnated monster that they were carrying.

He had just named himself a process typically done by a far stronger monster to weaker monsters to enhance them and create subordinates but in doing so the monster doing the naming sacrifices a large amount of mana enough to drain the average magic user of essentially all their magic potentially putting them in a coma if not kill them outright.

Now Marcus who was just reincarnated who probably didn't know how to use magic let alone have enough to cast a low level spell had named himself and in doing so was now draining himself of his magic as he does essentially he had in a round about way signed his own death certificate.

Thus she pried Marcus from Millie's hands and began pouring mana into him as she ran Millie didn't really seem to understand why but ran beside Mize trying her best not to freak out as Marcus's shrinking began to slow dramatically but still noticeable however there was nothing they could do but rush back as quickly as they could to the eleven village.

Thus both girls couldn't help the fear that coiled in their stomachs as Marcus grew smaller and smaller and by the time that they reached the village gates Marcus easily fit in the palm of the young witch and he had lost his defined shape instead resembling a small slime.

Hours Later

Marcus awoke slowly and with the lack of energy anyone working a dead-end job could understand as if he could fall back asleep if he blinked for more than a second but just like the workers he subconsciously knew that he needed to get up.

However the first thing to greet him when he actually paid attention to his vision was a text box.

"Well that interesting really wish I had known about the whole name thing before I almost killed myself." muttered Marcus as his eyes trailed over his new stats.

However his inspection was cut short when he noticed a pile of bodies around him everyone seemed to be alive as shown by their breathing but it still scared him for a moment and then he began to recognize faces the sisters, the queen, Mize, and some unknown pair a younger male and an older female elf.

The older female raised her head slightly before her tired eyes met his and shot to wakefulness "Hello Marcus are you well?"

Marcus thought for a moment before deciding to let his surprise out early "Yes I am ok, just a little tired."

His reply startled the elf for a moment "I was told that you can't talk without a translation spell."

Marcus nodded for a moment as he turned full body to look at the older elf "That was the case but shortly before named myself i got this ability...now i know this is a bit awkward seeing as you already know me but who are you?"

The only awake elf giggled lightly and replied "I am the Grand Mage Maz head magic caster of this village and the one who saved your life yesterday."

Marcus could stop his mouth from dropping before he remembered his manners "Aahh well you have my thanks then!" Marcus made sure to bow a his head a little after this world seemed a little medieval and bowing was something they were really into at those times right?

"Now now there is no need to bow i was simply doing as i was told and it certainly helps that you are so adorable... you almost compare to my little student here." stated the witch as she gently rubbed the boy, presumably her student's, head.

Marcus smiled as best he could with his furry face before he remembered his new humanoid form and a burst of joy filled him as his conscious mind remembered that he had been trapped in this fuzzy body for...a day?

Either way Marcus was ready to have a humanoid body again and so he tried to transform the slight squeal he heard startled him just as he felt the transition begin.
