'Where am I?'
Leo opened his eyes in a huge hall that was surrounded by a red-coloured mist that gave off a scent of blood.
Even though the place where he opened his eyes gave off an evil vibe, Leo was not afraid as his mind was able to guess that it was related to the creator of the system.
"Welco to my Blood Palace."
As Leo checked his surroundings with a calm look, a majestic voice resounded in the hall and soon, the red mist gathered at one place and beca a young man.
The young man looked a lot like Leo but he gave a completely different aura compared to Leo.
Leo had already gone through so many battles in his life; however, compared to the young man who materialized in front of Leo, the battle maniac aura released by Leo was negligible.
The young man was wearing red-coloured battle armour and two huge battle axes were attached to his back as though they were part of his body.
"Y-you are…"
After receiving the system, Leo felt fear for the first ti just to stand in soone's presence.
"I am the Ancient Blood God King, Linus and the creator of the Talent Swallowing System."
Even though the young man gave off an evil aura, his words were polite as he introduced himself to Leo.
"Ancient Blood God King?"
Leo knew that the system's creator was a God; however, when he heard the God Title, Leo frowned as it was his first ti hearing about 'God King'.
"I am Leo. The one who received the system in the [Treasure Ruins] you have created in my world."
Nevertheless, Leo didn't think too much about it as he hurriedly introduced himself as he thanked him, "I am very thankful for your treasure. Without it, I would have died long ago without completing my revenge."
"Tell about your life from the beginning to now."
The young man remained calm as he asked Leo to narrate his story.
"Yes, Sir Linus."
Leo nodded his head as he soon narrated everything he rembered from the beginning.
"I was an orphan and got adopted by…"
"My adoptive parents were killed and I was sold to a slave market."
"While working in the underground mines, I and my friends accidentally fell into the [Treasured Ruins] created by Sir Linus where I got the system."
"Later, I…"
.
.
.
In the beginning, Leo was worried about the ti; however, Linus inford him not to worry about the ti as they have enough ti for everything.
Therefore, Leo didn't miss anything and narrated everything to Linus.
Even though Leo didn't know the reason why the Ancient Blood God King wanted to listen to his story, Leo narrated it all because he owes so much to the God King.
"It looks like you have gone through so many things."
Linus bitterly smiled as he continued, "It must be because of those b*stards that put a curse on ."
"Huh?"
Leo frowned when he heard the God King's second sentence which made him think, 'What does that have to do with going through so many things?'
"You must be confused with my words, right?"
Linus shook his head as he asked, "Do you know who you are?"
"..."
"You are none other than my reincarnation."
The Ancient Blood God King didn't put Leo in suspense for much longer as he answered his own question.
"What? Your reincarnation?"
Of course, Leo didn't believe those words as he thought, 'It looks like he wants to take over my body.'
Leo knew that this Ancient Blood God King was hated by all the gods and fought with them. In that battle, even thousands of Celestial Gods joined hands to kill him.
So, Leo guessed that Linus's body must have been injured beyond regeneration or his soul might have left the body to escape from the Celestial Gods' pursuit.
The only way for the Ancient Blood God King to take revenge on those Celestials was to take over Leo's body…at least that's what Leo thought in his head.
"Haha…even though you didn't have my mories, you have got my 'Thinking Ability'."
As though he heard Leo's thoughts, the Ancient Blood God King laughed and spoke, "I know you are grateful to because of the system; however, there is no need for you to feel grateful to because we are one."
"You are and I am you."
"Also, there is no need for you to give your body or you need to do sothing for ."
"You need to do whatever you feel like doing."
"Also, I can tell that you might have heard about my fight with the Gods a few centuries back; however, there is no need to take revenge for ."
"You just have to live for yourself no matter what."
"Don't look for revenge and cultivate slowly, ascend to the Godhood and beco a Celestial God King."
"At that ti, there will be no one to go against you and slowly find out the secrets behind the Celestial God Realm."
Linus didn't give any ti for Leo to speak as he said many things in a single go.
"Am I really your reincarnation?"
It took a few monts for Leo to digest the Ancient Blood God King's words as he again asked about the reincarnation part.
"Yes. You are."
Linus nodded his head as he continued, "I am dead long ago and whatever you are seeing right now was a little bit of my consciousness I stored in the system when I was alive."
"Actually, I would have left your mories intact; however, I was cursed by those Celestial Gods that if I choose to reincarnate, my difficulty would be 100 tis more than the regular gods."
"Also, resetting the mories during the reincarnation, it lessens the difficulty for that reincarnation even for the normal reincarnation. So, I decided to reset your mories."
"However, even after resetting those mories, your life was still difficult and you would have died even before getting the system."
Thinking about his reincarnation dying even before getting his hands on the system, Linus' body shivered.
"So, I was a god in my previous life!"
Even though it took so ti for Leo, he finally believed the Ancient Blood God King's words.
