Reincarnated As A Li Chapter 6: Dominant Roar

Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Dominant Roar

The scenery faded away, leaving Kael and the Highest Will to return to the place that had no light or darkness yet had color.

Once again, they were surrounded by the eight golden figures of the primordial lions.

"That is where Alan's mories end," The Highest Will said with a frightening calmness to his voice.

When he ntioned the word 'end', Kael could almost hear hundreds of other words like died, decayed, returned, perished, and hundreds more. It sounded like the Highest Will had seen things like this too many tis.

'End?' Kael spoke in his mind, just to be sure.

"Yes," The Highest Will turned his head to look at Kael. Its golden brown eyes were emotionless, as though there was no soul behind those eyes.

"Those were the last mories of Alan. The reason I let you reincarnate with your mories is not because you seed special or anything, you are rely using an opportunity that randomly fell into your hands." The Highest Will said, not bothering to mince his words.

"You have your mories because I want you to have a sense of identity. If I had deprived you of your mories, you would imdiately think you are Alan reincarnated after inheriting his own mories.

You can imagine a lion cub, barely a week old, suddenly having access to vast amounts of information in the form of mories. The cub would very well have an identity crisis then settle on itself that it is the reincarnation of Alan when it is not and has only assud Alan's mories to be his own."

Kael understood the Highest Will, he wondered what made a person who they were. Their mories, or was it sothing else?

"I've shown you a brief part of Alan's mories so that you can reflect on it in the future on your own. From henceforth, I will leave you in this world to your fate.

Your end is completely in your hands right now."

Kael's shoulders dropped, a bit disappointed, but also a bit relieved. 'Why?...' He asked, 'Why are you doing this? What's your purpose? What do you stand to gain?'

The Highest Will turned its head to look at the seventh Primordial Lion, the lioness in human form. Derylia.

"What do I stand to gain? Potentially nothing. As for my reasons..." As the Highest Will stared at Derylia's illusory human figure, Kael could see a glint of sadness that ca and went so fast that he thought he must have been imagining.

"So things are better left not talked about...for now," The Highest Will stated.

"Well then, Kael," The entity in the shape of a lion cub, turned to Kael. "You've received a two-in-one package. Not only do you get the mories of the past Primordial Lions, sothing they never had, but you also get the Primordial Lion Power.

It would naturally take so ti for the Power to completely awaken inside your mortal cub body. Your first goal would be to survive till that ti.

"I genuinely hope you can beco the strongest. Perhaps, we shall et again in the future, or perhaps, we shall not."

After saying that, the Highest Will waved his paw. This action was followed by the destruction of the space they were in.

Kael woke up with a jolt, startling the lioness whom he was using as a pillow.

He looked around, the sun had already reason, and so lionesses were already loitering around the den.

A kick found its way to Kael's face all of a sudden. He instinctively opened his mouth and bit hard on the ankle.

There was a cry as one of Kael's sisters was forced awake with that toothless but painful bite. Her cry woke the other siblings from their slumber, everyone was getting ready for another possibly aningless day.

Kael looked at his sister who looked at him with an indignant expression. Before it could turn into sothing else, Kael chose to walk away.

He had a lot on his mind. He knew that everything he saw while asleep was definitely not a dream. It was too realistic to be a dream.

Kael thought about the words of the Highest Will, the mories of Alan, and what this all ant for him.

'If I die, there going to be a tenth Primordial Lion,'

Kael looked down at his paws, he looked closely at the fur. At the very end of each strand of fur, there was a golden tip. Too tiny to be noticeable unless one knew exactly what he was looking for.

'What killed the last primordial lions? The Highest Will said that Alan was just a few steps away from being his equal, did the other primordial lions ever reach that step?' Kael kept asking himself.

He had the mories in his head but he couldn't even access them. His head hurt anyti he tried to check the corner of his mind that held these mories. It was like his mind could not handle the stress and load of those mories.

"ROOAAAR!" A powerful lion's roar spread out from the group of lions.

Kael recognized that roar very well, it was his father's roar. Every morning, the pride leader would give this roar to assert his dominance over everything in his surroundings.

Kae estimated that the roar would spread for kiloters, probably scaring away any other lion out there that wanted to challenge him for his position.

"ROOAAAR!" A weaker roar ca from the distance. It was far and would have been barely audible, but it was early morning and there was almost no noise.

That roar didn't co from their pride, Kael was shocked to find out. It would have been more understandable if it ca from his older brother or one of his sub-adult accomplices, but this roar ca from a foreign lion.

"ROAAAAAAARR!!!" A roar more terrifying than before spread out from the pride. This roar was unlike any other and Kael was hearing it for the first ti.

The surrounding temperature instantly increased as the sound of the powerful roar reached the clouds.

Kael felt like he had been struck by a tangible heat wave. He felt very uncomfortable, even the little cubs were visibly showing discomfort. The adult lionesses however were pretty calm.

The distant roar didn't sound out again, the foreign lion was probably truly scared at this point.

Kael was in awe, truly. This was the first ti he felt so much power from the sound of one roar. The whole exchange of roars did not last more than a few seconds.

His thoughts with his bidding desire to investigate were interrupted by his stomach grumbling for food.

His little cub mind instantly pushed everything to the back of his mind and focused entirely on his food for that morning.
