"Its already been 5 years since i've reincrarnated. Life feels much happier and easier. I feel like my heart can finally let go of the pain i've experienced all those years. Although I only have my father, its better than being alone again. I have friends now. I dont feel out of place."
"I wish that happiness lasted for a bit longer. I wish I could smile for a bit longer."
Heise woke up covered with cold sweat as he woke up from a bad dream. He Didn't really member what he saw in that dream, but he just felt that it was too real. He had a shower and went out for a little hunt, returning 20 minutes later with a bunch of Hell chickens. He saw his father in the kitchen preparing food. "Dad I brought some more hell chickens!" he said while running to the kitchen.
"You are going to hunt those things out of existance with that pace" Said Leng while laughing.
Heise Blushed from the teasing. He had really hunted too many of them the past 2 years, since he really enjyoed their Taste. "Go put them in the freezer." Said Leng once more.
After placing them in the freezer Heise returned and sat down in his chair while waiting for the food. His father smiled as he served Two plates of Curry and sat down as well. They started eating while making comments about cultivation and history.
"In a blink of an eye you are already turning Six in Six months. Time sure passes by fast doesn't it" Said leng.
"Time passes by faster with you dad since i enjoy being close to you" Said heise with a cute smile. Although he was mentaly old He couldn't hold back his true feelings. He never had a doting parent to take care of him.
"You little!" Said leng while giving him a noogie.
"Dat that hurts!" Said heise while pouting, As they both proceeded to laugh.
Finishing their meal Heise got up and went outside to strentch. "Dad, can i ask what really happened to mom?" He said.
Leng's face became gloomy as he said "We've talked about this many times. Don't bring up the matter of your mother up since you can't do anything even if you were to know."
Heise nodded his head while a pondering expression apeared on his face. After a while he said "ill be going outside for a bit of training. Ill bring Haku and Alastor along so you dont have to worry about me doing something dumb again."

Leng smiled once again "Well thank goodness those kids exist or else i wouldn't know what to do about you. You are always beeing chase by Divine creatures."
Heise grinned while scratchning his head. "well see you later dad! Ill be back at sunset!" Said Heise while running.
"If you are late no food for you!" Screamed Leng.
Heise ran while swollowing his saliva. He couldn't be late today.
He arrived at the village, Grabbed Haku and Alastor, as they left deep into the forest together.
"So what are we hunting today?" Said Haku.
"I saw a huge snake yesterday, It should be around 6 meters long and 2 meters tall. It should be enough for a bit of practice." Said Heise
"Here we go again with those words. You do realize That we aren't even awakened yet right? Not everyone is a monster like you" Said Alastor.
Heise laughed while charging ahead. He just loved the feeling of freedom. This is the world he wanted to be in.
As time slowly past by the kids were in tatters. A huge snake fell down covered in wounds. It looked like it died because of excessive Blood loss. The snakes about twice the size Heise discribed so it was much harder for them to kill.
"Damn it Heise, you almost killed us again. Thank goodness for Alastors stunning abillity or else we would've been dead meat by now." said Haku while glaring at Heise.
Heise Grinned "Well we didn't die. I just made a small miscalculation. At least we got a good training time from it."
"Well We should probably return to the village. The sun is about to set." Said Alastor.
"Shit!" said heise as he didn't want to be late. Haku chopped the the snake in pieces so they could carry the meat more easily.
"Oh There is something inside" said Alastor.
"Hmmm? what is it?" Asked Haku.
"It seems to be some kind of crystal." Said alastor.
"Wait let me see!" Said Heise as he took the crystal. A smile could be seen on his face.
"HAHAHA A CORE! TO THINK WE COULD FIND ONE IS OUR FOREST!" He laughed in excitement.
"a core?" asked haku.
"Ye, Its something that high layer Divine Creatures Drop sometimes. This looks to be just around a 10 layer one though, but its still really rare to find them on the Creatures around here.They are used as currency and Engergy sources." Said Heise.

"wow that's a cool find right there, It was worth the fight i guess." Said Alastor. Haku and Heise nodded in agreement.
"Well lets return" said haku. All of them carried an amount of meat and skin as they went straight for the village.
As they were running to that direction, a red ligh could be seen as it slowly spread more and more. "Is that a fire?" Asked alastor. "I have a bad feeling about this" said Heise.
A black shadow flashed by as it landed on heise's shoulder "Little Black! You got scared by the fire? Its fine now." Heise said. The little bird chirped in agreement.
The trio rushed for the village. The fire was getting larger the close they went to the village. Screams could be heard combined with insane laughter. As they arived at the game they saw the mortals of the village getting killed left and right. Blood filled the ground as masked people were ripping their heads off. They covered their hands and bodys in the blood as if it was the best bath they had ever taken. The children were scared to the core as fear came over them.
Their masks were what with a half moon on their forheads. When heise noticed that detail his breathing quickened. The words of the village chief came to his mind. He could help but rush and attack the masked people. However they were clearly more power than him. 90 layers could be seen outside their body as they were easily dodging of his attacks with a mocking laughter.
However as they were laughing Haku and Alastor Attacked from behind finishing them both.
"Good job Guys" said Heise while wiping the blood off his face while a serious killing intent spread from him as well as Haku And alastor.
The further inside they went the more chaos there was. The children were getting abducted while the adults were killed. The old cultivators were narcosed and not killed. The village chief was nowhere to be seen.
The young cultivators had to fight back as they were slowly pushing them back, the amount of masked people lowering slowly. Heise and the others joined the cultivators as they finished off the final few masked people. A lot of people of the village were dead and a large amount of children had gone missing. The trio headed for the Village chiefs house. No masked people could be seen anywhere.
The door was open and nothing could be heard inside. They slowly entered and came to the sight of the village chief sleeping in the ground, a bunch of masked people's corpes were surrounding him. The kids tried to wake him to no results.
"Did they use some narcotic?" Said heise.
"Probably, or else there could be no way the chief would let this happen to the village." Said Haku.
"This is bad though, If the chief is passed out who is going to take care of the powerful ones." said Alastor.
"I want to try something" Said heise as he took hold of little black. He placed little black on top of the chiefs head and ordered it to scrath his whole body.
A scream could be heard a couple seconds later as the village chief awoke. Little black returning to heise's shoulder.
The village chief regained his thoughts as an angered face could be seen on his face. 10 Layers of heavenly energy apeared on his body, however they felt different than normal 10 layers. Its as if 1 layer is as powerful as 100 layers. When someone reached 100 layers, he then would combine all 100 to 1 layer. Every 100 layers one would combine them to 1. So that's why he had 10 layers only. Which means the village chief is a godly hand!
"Village chief this situation is weird. They narcosed you and the elder cultivators but they didn't kill you. On the other hand they killed the mortals and kidnapped the children." Said heise.
"Typical Dark guild" Said argus with a deep tone. "Those bastards do this a lot. Let the elders suffer for their losses. To think they were able to find this place. They must have a goal for comming here."
"Father!" said heise while remembering that his father was still in their house.
"Shit! This is Bad. They might actually be after Leng. This might be troublesome. The three of you go to check out what is happening there, while ill finish off the rest of them. Ill be there in a few minutes." Said Argus.
The trio nodded as they ran towards Heise's house. As they were walking in that direction a huge ice crystal apeared from the ground as it shot towards a shadow. The shadow dodged as it went to attack the person who created they crystal. This person was Heise's father Leng! Around a dozen of Masked people were surrounding Leng as he tried to fight back.
