Jin returned ho, surprised to see the mansion fully restored, even with the mana barrier in place. He did chuckle, however, seeing as the barrier wasn’t as powerful as it previously was. So he reincorced the barrier with his own magic before stepping inside.
"Jin! You’re back!" Jessa was faster than everyone else, so she hugged him faster than anyone else could.
"Yeah." He took a seat and breathed deeply. The stress of everything was getting to him. He wondered where he had gone wrong, but then he rembered that he hadn’t gone wrong at all. Everything was orchestrated by Eve, Oboro, and he was in the palm of her hand for the majority of his life before he realized it.
But that was just in this world. He had done a lot of things that were wrong in his previous lives, things that he wished he could change, but that opportunity was long gone.
"You okay?" Brittany sat next to him, resting his head on her lap.
"No. But I’ll manage."
"You sure?"
"No." Jin told most of them about his past lives, not everything, but he decided to tell them everything.
There was no use keeping them in the dark. He had only done this three other tis. Two of them were when he helped his children in one life achieve divinity, and another when he t his two closest friends, Zion and Kai.
The three of them bonded over being reincarnated. They were from the sa original world as well, just different points in ti.
Jin started at the beginning, telling them about his original life and speaking about every single one of his 500 lives up until this one, his 501st life.
Addison, Brittany, Angela, and Lacena already knew everything. Jerrica knew a tiny bit, but the rest, especially Oculia and Yuria, were shocked out of their minds.
"I didn’t recall my mories until after you died, or until after I thought you died." He said to his mother.
"So that’s why you never felt embarrassed about being shirtless, that was normal where you ca from!" It all made sense to Oculia now.
"So does this an you don’t see as your mother?" Jessa asked. She didn’t care if Jin was reincarnated. She gave birth to him, raised him, and loved him as her son.
"Quite the opposite, in fact. I always cherished my family in each life, no matter how distant I was from them in so of them. My parents would always be my parents, and that’s a fact. You’re still my mom, and that won’t change. Just like you’re my grandmother." He looked at Jerrica.
They both smiled, happy that Jin still saw them the sa way.
"Besides, reincarnation is normal. All of you had multiple previous lives, parents, and so on. It’s just that your soul becos a blank slate once you enter the reincarnation cycle, but thanks to the deities whom I ran away from, my soul was never cleared, so I kept retaining my mories."
"Isn’t that like...a LOT of mories? Your mind must feel like it’s exploding all the ti." Anyssa couldn’t imagine having that many mories.
"No, it’s fine. I actually don’t rember everything. Only deities can do that. Instead, I store all of my mories in, well, in today’s terms, a data stick. Each data stick is labeled with the lives I lived, and I pull from those mories when I need. But I kept a foundation of knowledge, so I don’t completely forget everything. This is why I can tell you the things I’m currently talking about."
Angela smiled. "That’s freaking cool."
"So this woman, Oboro, she’s the one behind this?" Lacena wanted to know more about her so they could formulate a plan to beat her.
"Yes. She was my best friend in the first world, my eventual lover. We were both extrely powerful there, reaching the height of power in that world at an extrely early age. Then, I was blessed with the spark of the hero, and I beca the hero. That’s when everything went downhill."
He explained how he acted, the things he did, and what it led to.
"Honestly, given that I’m pregnant, I understand her anger." Angela held her belly. "But I don’t think my rage would extend into lifetis.
"The fury of a mother knows no bounds." He chuckled
"Damn right!" Jessa, Jerrica, and Anyssa said at the sa ti.
"How do we beat her?" Lacena wondered.
"Honestly, as it currently stands, we can’t. I’ve co to the realization that she’s a demigod. Even with my power, she’s too strong for currently. She even has my old body. That old body of mine is so powerful that Titans feared . So if she manages to use it, then this world is as good as dead."
"Fuck." Brittany’s heart started pounding like crazy. She couldn’t even imagine the world being destroyed. It spooked her too much.
"And there’s no way to beat her?!"
"There’s a way, I plan on getting us all there. This is why I needed you all to beco 10th circle mages. The next thing to do is have you practice the mana thod I do, then you will have to comprehend the laws of the universe. Not all, but at least one. That’s the best way to stand a chance against Eve." He explained
"And your forr self?"
"Hope and pray that Eve fails in resurrecting my forr body."
Everyone gulped.
"C-Can we see what you were like back then? Your forr body?" Yuria asked for refrence.
"Alright." He connected his mind to everyone and showed them how he was previously.
First, they all noticed how handso he was. Now, he was already handso here, but his old body was a 100 out of 10 if his current body was a 10 out of 10. It was a bit embarrassing, but Jin didn’t pay too much attention to their reactions.
They saw him fight against divine beings, destroy worlds, and dominate species. He was the ultimate being that wasn’t a god, and it showed.
"We’re actually fucked." Angela took a seat.
"N-Now, don’t think like that. Maybe he had a weakness, right, Jin?" Jerrica asked
"No."
"Yeah, we’re fucked." Addison agreed with Angela.
