Look Mistress Vazeth it’s a beautiful baby boy…or girl?…I cannot really tell if I am to be honest.
It matters not to me just so long as the baby becomes someone influential in the future. I have high hopes for you little one. She says as she holds her own child with indifference.
I open my eyes and take note of my surroundings. The first thing I see is my mother who is a monster. A goat looking woman with black sclera and white pupils, horns, with markings all over her body and bat-like wings. The room is majestic as if it was of high class society. Right next to my mother is a shock before me. It was Belros, my friend and Legion member. She smiled at me with warmness.
Strange that they aren't crying. Babies usually cry. My daughter is strong just like her mother, Vazeth said with a smile crept on her face. My little Tsubasa
Right next to my mom was a mirror and as I gaze at the reflection I realized something…I’m a monster too! Staring back at me I’ve seen what I am. A goat looking monster with horns, wings, black sclera and white pupil eyes with markings all over my body as well. I was so shocked that I let out nothing more than a baby noise with my stubby hands flailing.
I looked back at Belros and with her was my weapon perched up by the door. So even my weapon made it to this world as well. I looked back at my mother who’s name is Vazeth. She was really pretty if I had to say so.
It’s too bad the King couldn’t be here to see his own child being born, Belros spoke.
It’s for the best he’d probably ridicule the baby for appearing so weak and frail. He always had an eye for all things powerful, Vazeth said in melancholy. However, Baphomets are really powerful monsters and very rare. I feel he would be pleased to know that one of his heirs to the throne is a unique monster such as I.
So that’s what my mother and I are, Baphomet, I don’t really feel powerful but then again I’m still just a baby. This sucks.
I looked at my mother again, why does she look so upset? Whatever it’s not like the feeling of disappointment from others is new to me, as an orphan I never really understood familial love. A screen panel opened to me for the first time and I saw the status of my mother.
Vazeth the Baphomet LV.100, high levels all over the place. My mother is overpowered. Just look at all these skills, look at all these titles. I wonder to myself, is this the power of God’s Blessings and the Wisdom skill? I look around and I’m overwhelmed, I can see stats, names, evolution, and even the minerals and peculiarities of all objects. This power really is a cheat. Thank you Lucifer! I can even figure out how to acquire new skills and magic! I let out a giggle.
My mother saw this as being affectionate and for a moment I could have sworn she blushed and looked away. I just might be her weak spot.
Do you think she’ll get along with the other children? Belros questioned.
God I hope so, Vazeth whispered.
If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
Excuse me, mistress
I mean, it matters not to me if she gets along with them or not. Vazeth spoke with indifference. Put her in the playpen with the rest.
At once mistress.
As Belros was taking me out of the room and started walking down a lavish looking hallway she spoke to me.
Okay listen Soda I know you may have a lot of questions about your current circumstances. I'm going to have to say that you should wait until you're old enough to actually process your words. You’re Tsubasa now so get used to that name firstly. I’m not the only one here too; Garland, Nagai, and Brannelle are here too. And since we don’t have the wisdom skill we've been treating all the babies as equals. You’re the last to be born so if you don’t mind, when you get to the playpen please give us a sign that you know who is who. Since we cannot see the old names of the others. Can you do that for me?
I shake my head in confirmation. Don’t worry Belros, I thought to myself, I’ll figure out who’s in my gang in this new life.
As she opened the door, before me stood a row of maids and butlers patiently waiting by the door. Belros put me down and scooted me into the playpen. There I saw as many as over twenty children of mixed races play indoors. Some older than others, at least up to age three give-or-take. Whoever my dad is, it's clear that he’s a character of polygamy. I already assume that he’s a bastard and I must be a bastard’s child. There is no way of telling if I’m legit or not. But the guy must have concubines lined up at the ready. Scum is the word that my lips can’t utter yet.
Within the room I can see it all. Kobolds of both western and eastern, cat folk, gnolls, in fact there were too many babies of all kinds of race here in this playpen. I happened across blocks that had words on them. I know a sheer fire way to get the attention of all my Legion Members. With the blocks, it took me a while, but I spelled out L E G I O N.
It took a while to see who would approach but what stood to be a one year old named Constantia the Owl Mage, a two year old named Solomon Azezel Gresley a Lich, and a few months older than me Kemo Morningpaw the Gnoll. Then there’s me, the Baphomet named Tsubasa. We all look at each other with skepticism. I know they’re probably thinking, there’s no possible way that the person next to me is a Legion member. The three maids and one butler immediately took notice.
It was Belros, Garland, Nagai, and Brannelle Virant. Noticing this they all looked at each other in agreement. Brought out word blocks to the four children and each of them immediately started spelling out their names…their REAL names. To which I already knew since I can see it already through my [Wisdom Skill].
I spelt my name out first, Soda.
The Lich was next, Krieg
Then the Gnoll, Hana
And lastly the Owl Mage, Sam
It appears that I was the last to be reincarnated so some of my peers are already older than me. Ironic since in our previous lives, I was the oldest. Now I am the youngest member. The maids and butler look at each other. Then smiled finally knowing which of their young masters were which. Each all lifted their respected future caretaker and cuddled them.
I didn’t appreciate that not one bit. I folded my arms together and looked as upset I could possibly be..for a month old baby. Which only made Belros blush and rubbed my cheeks more with her cheek.
You are so adorable, Belros said.
It’s good to finally know which of you is which, Nagai spoke as she picked up Hana, now known as Kemo Morningpaw.
My oh my, little lady is it truly you?! Garland cried tears of joy.
Sam, now known as Constantia, shook her head in affirmation, pleased to finally get Garland’s attention.
The fact that all the boys are reincarnated as girls, there must be some irony hidden in its meaning. Brannelle pondered as she looked at Krieg, now known as Solomon Azezel Gresley.
Now that we all know who is who, let's all agree to stick together until all of them are old enough to talk formally. This way when they utter their words in unison we can formulate a plan, Belros spoke. We all agreed.
That means we have to wait until the leader turns five right. That means Constantia will be six, Garland said.
Which means Solomon will be seven, Brannelle added.
Both will be at the age where they can speak in full sentences. Nagai spoke.
But our little boss here will have the final say. Belros spoke matter of factually.
I agreed with her making baby noises.
Well I am a baby I may as well have a little fun being this young again…
I look at the other kids and they look at me with a bit of jealousy. I guess I have to share the spotlight with them.
I can tell this is going to be a long five years.
