《A Thousand Reincarnations : Overcome My Destiny》Chapter 1 : Rebirth Once Again
Advertisement
In the deep void in an unknown place where darkness usurps every single corner and space, the atmosphere here was strangely eerie and cold.
Within that deep dark void, a faint white light could be seen in the distance that resembles the shape of a human.
Taking a closer look, the human shaped light had a face but there can be seen no facial expressions on its visage and that body of light just allowed itself to be drifted along in the empty space with no determined path.
Until another white light appeared somewhere in the void just a few meters away did the human shaped light finally react, he turned his head to look at a portal shaped light with indifference, as if he had seen this phenomenon a million times.
He didn't even flinch, react or even look away despite the fact that the portal shaped light was a thousand times brighter than the sun but somehow was unable to light up the surroundings.
Then he was slowly getting sucked in towards the portal like a weak black hole but despite this, the human shaped light didn't do anything and just continued to stare at the portal shaped light without any change in his expression.
It wasn't until he was only a few inches away from the portal that he finally said something.
"Here we go again"
"I wonder what type of world it is gonna be this time"
After he uttered those words, the human soul and the portal shaped light merged together and his vision was taken away.
After a few seconds, eternal darkness returned and the two lights was nowhere to be seen but suddenly the surrounding void shook and space itself shattered like a broken mirror.
Out of nowhere, an all encompassing voice that contained the aura of omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence was heard.
"The time is finally near, this place no longer serves any purpose"
After the voice uttered the last word, pieces by pieces, the fragmented space was swallowed in multiple points like a whirlpool and chaos took over the darkness, like a predator devouring its prey.
Meanwhile....
In the deep mountains, in a wooden house of a certain village.
"Celine! Where is my Celine!" A manly voice reverberated in the house that contained emotions of anxiousness and a hint of panic but also slight joy and anticipation.
This man had a handsome and young face, despite being over a hundred years old, he still retained his youthful look, the young village girls would blush upon seeing him and the young men would have stars sparkling in the depths of their eyes out of respect and admiration.
But not just because he was that handsome but also because he was famous throughout the continent and his name resounded thunder to those who heard it, his enemies' face would turn pale every time they hear about him and his countrymen and allies would have respectful and revering tone each time they would speak of him.
He was one of this generation's heroes, praised throughout the world for his deeds, titled [The Lightning Demi-God] his name was Vorne Tranaf Mason of the Mason Clan, one of the most powerful clan of this world.
But unlike the people's high perception of him with his thunderous reputation, currently he looked no different from an ordinary man with his current expression, the worry in his eyes was evident and it made one know what he was feeling.

He rushed into his house and bolted his way into the entrance of a certain room.
The door opened and out came a middle aged woman, seeing the approaching figure of one of the most respectful and revered figures of this world, the woman smiled.
'Even the lightning demi-god can have an expression like this' she thought.
Seeing him just outside the door and was about to open it, the woman said.
"Sir hero there is no need to worry, Lady Celine's water just broke and is currently in the process of giving birth"
Despite his anxiousness and hearing the painful sounds on the other side of the door, he nodded to her words and asked "Then what are you doing out here then?"
Hearing his question, the woman replied "Ah! The blanket we bought wasn't clean and I was gonna bring a clean one back, excuse me sir hero!" with that she bowed and walked away.
Seeing her leave, the man just stared at the door in full concentration, he did not rush to enter the room like previously and just continued to stare intensely at the door like the door was something interesting.
Beyond the door, voices from the frantic midwife could be heard saying things like 'breathe' or 'relax' or 'push'.
Hearing this, the man just walked around the door in circles while looking at the doorknob hesitantly.
"YOU BASTARD GET THE FUCK IN HERE RIGHT NOW! LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID TO ME!" An angry woman's voice shouted at the top of her lungs mixed with playful blame but also a bit of suppressed pain.
Hearing this, the man who the world looked up to and respected from the bottom of their hearts looked like a child that got scolded by his mother, if any of his fans were to see him now, his image in their minds would shatter into a million pieces.
His body jolted and slowly opened the door timidly and looked down.
Of course, a part of this was just playfulness on their part, they really weren't angry with each other, this is a happy day, this is a day were he is gonna be a parent and that woman who just shouted just happened to be his wife, Celine.
"My lovely Celi--" Before he could finish his sentence, the woman already stared at him like a predator when seeing their prey.
"HOLD MY FUCKING HAND BASTARD!! TAKE SOME PART OF THE PAIN"
After that he walked over just right beside his wife and held her hand, she gripped tightly and he immediately felt his hand was getting crushed like a mountain was on top of it.
That woman was unexpectedly strong as well.
Of course, with his strength there was no actual pain but he acted like it was the most painful thing in the world, his face expressed the pain to look like it was the worst feeling he experienced in his life, his face was pale and was devoid of blood circulating on it.
Seeing this, the woman just smiled in satisfaction and suddenly felt that the pain of childbirth suddenly eased.
The man just looked at her with a bitter smile while the midwife was doing her best to deliver the baby.
The middle-aged woman who left a while ago to get clean blankets came back until finally....

"It's a boy, congratulations sir hero, lady Celine" The midwife said.
Happy exclamations was then uttered in the room.
A happy smile quickly surfaced on the man's face like his previous pained expression was an illusion while woman quickly went into tears.
"Give him to me, I wanna see my lovely little boy" said the woman with tears in her eyes whose tone was gentle, her words were sweet; it was in complete contrast to how she talked a moment ago.
The midwife handed the baby over to his mother who then looked at her baby with a loving gaze and smiled.
The man though, after experiencing an emotional rollercoaster suddenly felt something was off and said.
"Huh? He isn't crying, aren't babies supposed to cry the moment they are born?"
The woman finally realized the anomaly and was too happy to notice anything before and then took a good look at her baby, an energy wave was suddenly emitted out of her head.
"You're right, he is awfully quiet but it looks like there is nothing wrong with him and I double scanned him too" The woman said.
The man nodded in agreement and said.
"This is definitely not normal but hey both of us are not normal as well, so it makes sense, plus as long as the baby is healthy, everything will be fine"
The woman scoffed coldly and said.
"Don't lump me together with you, you're the only one who is not normal here"
The man chuckled but he disagreed what she said in his thoughts.
"Well he didn't cry which probably means because he is tough, he definitely got that from me" The man smiled and showed his pearly white teeth, he was obviously proud like he achieved something great.
"Shameless boasting, he obviously got that from me" The woman said.
The man quickly changed the topic and said.
"Though it's weird, his spirit power is abnormally strong, it is already on the same level as a saint-rank mage! Monstrous among monstrous cannot even begin to describe it! When I was born, my spirit power was only at the level of an expert-rank, I already knew that a child between the both of us is gonna become a total monster but this exceeds my expectations by a frick ton"
"ONLY at an expert-rank? are you intentionally showing off? only once every thousand years can a person be born with an expert-rank spirit power at birth and you're complaining?" the woman said.
"Hey, why are you talking about me? we're discussing about this little monster over here, it is unprecedented to have a saint-rank spirit power at birth much less one above expert-rank, there is no record of even a master-rank spirit power at birth, even [The Celestial] didn't have one, I heard that person is just like me, expert-rank spirit power at birth" the man said.
After hearing his words, the woman had a solemn expression on her face then took another look at the baby in her arms, she seemed to be thinking about something.
After a moment of silence, the man clapped and said.
"Well doesn't matter, if there is any hidden problems, we'll deal with it when that time comes, we should be happy that a monster among monsters has been born in this world, hehe I can only imagine the widespread shock when we release him unto the world" the man said proudly.
"Stop calling your own son a monster!" The woman angrily said as she glared at the man.
The man instantly broke into sweat and apologized.
"So what are you gonna name him?" The man said to divert his wife's anger.
"Hmm.." The woman pondered then glanced at her husband and smiled lightly and said.
"I think you should name him as long as it is not a horrible name"
"Oh, um, let me think..." The man said as he stared into the ceiling, he looked like he was in deep thought.
Suddenly a voice whispered into his ears as if telling him something that even the woman couldn't hear.
The man raised his eyebrows and said.
"Revlo!"
"Revlo Mason, Rev meaning invincible in my clan's ancient language and Lo meaning supreme"
"With this guy's talent he will become invincible and reign supreme in this world in the future!"
The woman raised one eyebrow, she didn't think that name was all that bad plus she didn't know that the Mason clan had an ancient language, this was her first time hearing this despite living in the clan that one time for 2 years.
"That'll do then, Revlo welcome to the world" the woman lovingly said and stared at her baby.
After she said that, the baby's eyes that was closed suddenly opened.
Seeing this, the parents were startled, not because he opened his eyes but because when they look into his eyes, it contained nothing but indifference and emptiness in his gaze, there was no fluctuation at all in his eyes and didn't even contain any childishness or innocence that all babies would have.
These people were strong and are sensitive to any minute details, so they could sense this.
They looked at each other worriedly, maybe this was some sort of side-effect of having a saint-rank spirit power?
Their guesses were not all that incorrect, people born with high spirit power usually had the benefit of having high mana capacity as well as high mana sensitivity but they also tend to possess eccentric personalities or traits, this was an irrefutable fact.
But they could never guess that their child had experienced this scene exactly a thousand times already and has already grown numb to this.
'So it is a magical world this time, it has been a while' the baby thought in his head as he observed the room he was in.
Then he glanced at his so called 'parents', there was no love in his gaze at all, he only felt apathy and he felt that they were no different from strangers that you would find on the streets.
He didn't feel that this was wrong at all, he already had thousands of parents in his previous lives.
He was already numb to familial love when reaching his 21st life, he can't possibly love or care for these people because he is going to die 15 years later anyway.
