Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 — Strategy of a Reborn Conqueror

I took a deep breath, letting my new lungs settle, and typed into the system chat before the others could panic themselves into stupidity.

[Alexandra]:Okay. First off—yes, I've been reincarnated as a female version of Alexander the Great. And honestly? I'm relieved. I didn't want to stop being a girl, so at least that God wasn't completely insane.Now let's analyze our situation logically.

The chat quieted. Good. They knew when I was switching into strategist mode.

[Alexandra]:Based on architecture, my current age, and the historical names he gave us, we should be somewhere around 330 BC. Give or take a few years.

A stunned silence followed.

[Cleopatra]:So thousands of years before Tony Stark exists?

[Alexandra]:Exactly. We have time. A lot of it. And we're all in positions of massive historical power. Potential kings, queens, generals, rulers of entire empires.

[Julius]:Which means… creating the SCP Foundation is actually doable?

I smiled. A sharp, knowing, dangerous smile.

[Alexandra]:Not just doable. Easy.Five future rulers working together? With modern intelligence? With centuries to prepare?If we build the Foundation now, we'll grow faster than any empire in history.

[Darius]:But the anomalies… are they already here?

I shook my head and typed.

[Alexandra]:No. I doubt there are any SCPs in the world yet.

[Cleopatra]:You sound awfully certain.

[Alexandra]:Because the God is bored.He wants a game.If SCPs already existed everywhere, we'd all die instantly. That's not a game—that's a massacre.

So here's my theory:The SCPs will start appearing after we found the Foundation.He'll trickle them in to "make things fun."

There was a long, horrified silence.

[Julius]:…He's going to use us as entertainment.

[Darius]:Like lab rats.

[Cleopatra]:Marvel plus SCP… that's not entertainment. That's cruelty.

[Alexandra]:We can't change what he is. But we can play his game better than he expects.

I stood up from the silk bedding, letting my new body adjust to its balance and weight. I was taller. Stronger. Built like a commander meant to ride into war and win.

And now I had something Alexander never did—future knowledge, modern strategy, scientific understanding, and a lifetime of technological expertise.

[Alexandra]:Listen. The faster we build the Foundation, the sooner we unlock more system functions.The sooner we unlock those, the sooner we can prepare for the Marvel timeline—aliens, gods, cosmic threats, apocalypses.And the sooner we build our network, the easier it will be to control everything from behind the scenes.We can save this world, rule it, or reshape it.But doing nothing is suicide.

[Julius]:…Seems like someone's already settling into her conqueror role.

I rolled my eyes.

[Alexandra]:Please. I was already bossy before reincarnation. Now there's just historical justification.

Emma—Cleopatra—sent a laughing emoji. Somehow the system supported those.

[Darius]:So what now, Alex? What's our first move?

I exhaled slowly, letting the weight of destiny settle on my shoulders.

[Alexandra]:First, we unite our empires.Second, we modernize in secret.Third…We build the SCP Foundation centuries before the Marvel timeline begins.

And when the SCPs finally start appearing?

A grin spread across my lips.

[Alexandra]:We'll be ready.We'll be terrifying.And we'll be the most powerful organization this universe has ever seen.

Right then, the system chimed.

SYSTEM NOTICE:Starter Packs for all reincarnated members are now available.Would you like to open yours, Alexandra?

I felt my heartbeat quicken.

The game had officially begun.
