None knew that the ritual that Reinhardt performed was not a ritual of reincarnating. It was a ritual that was much more ancient that only the beings that made this world and himself.
Reinhardt can be seen floating in the cosmos, with a look of anticipation.
“Ah. It has been three millennia since I came to this realm. I am really missing those two. How have they been? I guess I will meet my parents soon.”(Reinhardt)
“Hoh. So you did remember these old parents of yours after all these years hah you brat!”(Unknown male entity)
“Oh stop it Argon. Our son has returned after so many years and you just started scolding him! Let him catch his breath and tell us about his adventures in Kirios.”(Unknown female entity)
“You always spoiled him rotten, Gaya. He has always been this unruly from when he was a child because you kept spoiling him”(Argon)
Looking at the Supreme entities who are his parents, Reinhardt gave out a sigh and said with a poker face which is the complete opposite to the expression he had in front of all of his followers and his wife“You guys stop bickering like always. Even though you two are immortal supreme gods, pay attention to your age. It’s embarrassing to call you guys my parents. Stop bickering like children.”
In Front of these beings who are also his parents, he was completely casual. If his followers saw their master’s this expression they would, have their jaws dropped on the floor. Since they saw him as a ruthless and cold ruler. It was not their fault since none other than his wife knew why Reinhardt was acting against the races.
“It’s enough Rei. Tell us about your adventures, and tell us about our daughter-in-law. Why did you not bring her with you? I was really looking forward to it. And tell me the truth, you did know that she was pregnant and bearing your child and our grandchild! I wanted to hold my grandchild so much.”(Gaya)
Hearing his mother’s words Reinhardt had a sweat drop his back for his mother’s forgetfulness and replied with a poker face”Mother you are forgetting that only supreme beings like us can exist in this cosmic realm, and if we want to bring someone else who is not a supreme being, we can not. So I could not bring her with me.”
“But why did you lie to your followers and my daughter-in-law about the ritual?”The supreme goddess pouted. If other gods saw this sight of the goddess of life and peace pouting like a little girl, they would be surprised as hell.
*AHEM*
“That would be me. I told him not to tell anyone.”(Argon)
“But why?”(Gaya)
“Did you forget, why we sent our son to Kirios to antagonist other races? We need them to be under one banner and not in conflict. And when does the others will come under the same banner and fight together? When they are facing a mortal crisis. For that, we needed to keep others from finding out the fact that it was us who were behind the shadows of the actions that Rei took.”(Argon)
“Yes, mother we could not let anyone know. Although Elaine knows about it, I trust her. She will not let anyone else know about it.”(Reinhardt)
“Hahhh...Since you already came, it means that everything went according to our predictions. And now every race will have mutual respect to each other and not be at war like they were before we sent you.”(Argon)
“Yeah, I hope so. But as you have given them free will and since they are not immortals, until they reach divinity like the gods that you made, so they will have large ambitions in their limited lifespan. Unable to see the bigger picture.”Said Reinhardt to his father with a tinge of disappointment.

Gaya reacted to Reinhardt’s words with a grieved look.“It grieves my heart to see them fighting with each other. We created them although not equally, but with their own unique traits that would make them strong in their own way.”
“We can not do anything about that. Anyways, since Reinhardt left Kirios, so soon those things will start appearing on the land of Kirios as the divinity gets thinner and thinner. And it may even start rivaling the gods that we made as guardians.” said Argon with a distressed look.
“Hahahaha...old man why are you so distressed? So what if due to our absence the divinity will decrease! The only thing that our divinity served as is to restrain those things. The races will not be affected. I am sure, now the races under one banner can fend off those unholy beings just fine. Wasn’t this the main reason why sent me down their in the first place? And if you are still worried about them, then be assured, since I have ordered my followers to make their own kingdoms. They will surely protect the races with the kingdom they will build.”(Reinhardt)
Hearing this Gaya could not refrain from asking him with worry,”But what about my daughter-in-law and my grandchild?”
“Don’t worry mother for I have left all of my treasures with her which will aid her if the need comes to be. And besides, she is stronger than the gods that you made.”Reinhardt replied to his mother’s worries with a smug face.
*SMACK*
Argon smacked Reinhardt.”Don’t act so cocky brat. What’s up with that smug look of yours?”
“Damn old man don’t smack so hard. Are you trying to kill your own flesh and blood?”Reinhardt said to his father while rubbing the back of his head.
*Giggle* Watching the father and son duo Gaya could not stop herself from giggling.”You two haven’t changed a bit. Still acting silly.”
*Ahem* Being not able to refute Gaya, Argon coughed a bit.”Anyways, enough chit-chat. Now let’s start talking about the reason why you came. As I have given my word, if you completed the task, then you can reincarnate as one of the races in Kirios. Now choose which race do you want to reincarnate as.”
“I want to reincarnate as a Human,” Reinhardt answered his father immediately, without flinching as though he has decided in his heart.
“Human? Why Rei?” Gaya could not understand the choice that Reinhardt made. She thought her son would take the Fiend race or the dragon race since they were the strongest.
Unlike Gaya Argon just lifted his eyebrows and nodded after he thought of something.”I see. Good choice.”
Gaya got more confused and asked,”Why? Tell me Rei.”
Looking at his curious mother, Rei smiled and replied,”There are two reasons. First Elaine is a Human who has achieved divinity and became immortal and I want to spend my life with her as a fellow human. And the second reason is that I think the humans are the strongest race in Kirios. Or it would be appropriate to say that they have what it takes to be the sovereigns of Kirios as you have given them the strongest trait among all the races, The trait of Unlimited Potential.”
Gaya finally understood the reason behind her son’s choice and gave her nod of approval.
“Since you have decided, let’s start your reincarnation. You will be reborn many years later after the Dawn of Genesis. And since you are reincarnating, to keep the balance between karma stable we can not let you retain your current memories and your abilities. Rather I will seal them in your soul and you can access them when your mortal self will be worthy of them. Goodbye, my son and have fun (and may the force be with you).”(Argon)
“Yes, I will remember it. Live my life to the fullest.”(Reinhardt)
“Bring Elaine and my grandchild with you the next time you come,” Gaya said while holding back her tears of sadness to separate from her beloved son another time.
“Sure mother.”(Reinhardt)
“Then off you go. I as the god of destruction and chaos, one of the two supreme gods, Argon give you permission to reincarnate.”(Argon)
“Take care of yourself my son. I as the goddess of love and peace, one of the two supreme gods, Gaya give you permission to reincarnate.”(Gaya)
Reinhardt gets shrouded in bright light and starts to feel excited thinking about the unlimited future possibilities that he is going to experience and most of all reuniting with his beloved wife and his child that he never had the chance to meet.
*Sigh* “I am coming Kirios to live my life freely and to the fullest. This is the beginning of a new beginning.” Reinhardt said under his breath as his body disintegrated into particles and his soul gets sucked into the wheel of reincarnation.
“Live your life well son” Both Argon and Gaya said in unison.
And thus our protagonist reincarnates……..
