Chapter 1013: Reincarnation Cycle and the Regretful Beach
Chapter 1013: Reincarnation Cycle and the Regretful Beach
Tutoring homework... Oh right, before I came in, I promised Anna I would supervise them while they caught up on their assignments. I was so focused on checking on William and Meilanie that I almost forgot about this.
“Not too bad… I guess?”
Facing his sister’s puzzled gaze, Liang blinked and tried to deflect the conversation. "However, compared to the knowledge education from school, I believe the cultivation of a child’s character is far more important. After all, while knowledge can arm their minds, a positive and healthy personality is what will keep their life's ship on the right course…"
"…"
After staring at her brother for a while as he started to pontificate on educational philosophies, Anna asked with a sigh, “So, how about the homework? How did the tutoring go?”
“This...”
Feeling the sudden pressure from Anna, Liang, who remained unperturbed even when surrounded by over a hundred True Gods, couldn’t help but avert his gaze and said hesitantly, “I can only say that compared to the previous progress, there’s been a groundbreaking change.”
“You mean... you didn’t touch a single thing before, and now you’ve finally started writing?”
“Um...”
“...”
It seems like sending you to tutor the homework instead of helping in the kitchen to boil water was the right choice... because you can’t have two boiling mists in one room!
Confronted with her brother’s master-level educational skills, the slender girl’s lips couldn’t help but purse. Ultimately, she couldn’t bring herself to say anything harsh and just rolled her eyes at him before pushing open the door to the inner room with a murderous look.
Meilanie: Σ（дlll）
William: (ーー゛)
The moment the true apex predator of the Raynes household entered, the brand-new homework books were pushed aside, and the intense struggle between William Little Brother and Meilanie the Great Demon came to an abrupt halt.
Then, under Liang’s strained gaze, the two future big names with extremely high backgrounds reacted in different ways. One let out a long, resigned sigh and promptly turned around, pulled down her pants, and assumed a perfect defensive position.
The other, with a look of desperate determination, shot out from her spot, sliding towards the door as if seeking a last chance at survival... only to be yanked up by the collar, flipped over, and given a harsh slap on the buttocks.
“Ow! Big Brother, save me!”
“He can’t save you!”
That’s right, Big Brother can’t save you, because he did this on purpose.
With master-level acting skills, Liang flawlessly portrayed a brother with poor educational abilities, successfully triggering Anna’s wrath. He gave Meilanie a helpless look and then closed the door to the inner room.
Big Brother’s heart is too soft; he really can’t bear to see you two get beaten... so he won’t watch.
Having given Anna ample space to educate them, Liang, the soft-hearted one, put on an apron and walked into the kitchen, taking over from Anna. He hummed a tune from a certain blue planet as he prepared the ingredients that hadn’t yet been cooked.
While Liang’s culinary skills were at least a hundred levels below Anna’s, as an entity with an immersion value exceeding sixty points, handling a small kitchen knife was no problem.
He quickly chopped the fish and vegetables, threw them into the pot, and covered it. Watching the dancing flames on the stove and smelling the aroma wafting from the pot’s vent, Liang couldn’t help but close his eyes in contentment.
Home is the best place.
Although his younger brother and sister are quite troublesome, causing chaos almost every day, it’s still far more comfortable than places like the Twelve Kingdoms, the Mortally-Dream Realm, the Cleanup Bureau, or the Source God Platform.
Especially as my strength grows stronger, the things I come into contact with become increasingly abstract. I might be away on a business trip for over two months and not see a single normal human, making my actions and thoughts increasingly abstract. Only when I return home do I feel like a normal person again.
Hmm... Although I can no longer live like a normal person, the warm and cozy atmosphere at home still firmly maintains my human mindset, preventing me from truly becoming a cold and ruthless upper echelon, treating people as mere numbers.
This small apartment, with its limited space, is the most solid anchor in my heart and an irreplaceable haven.
Waving my hand over the warm stove, I listen to the sound of Melanie getting spanked and her pleading for mercy. Leon, who has been tense for a while, can't help but gradually relax. Then...
...
"No! Something still feels off!"
Pulling his head out from Leon's cuff, the Black Sheep stares at the room where the cries come from, and solemnly says:
"Younger sister is just too strange. This little one... Not only isn't a normal human child, but it's hard to say if she is even human. I think she might be... What are you doing?"
"Nothing."
The right hand, coated with the root color, twists slightly, grabbing the sheep's head that disrupts the peaceful atmosphere and tossing it into the empty steamer. Leon then swiftly adds water and, with a deadpan expression, says:
"Start talking. I'll decide whether we need to add another dish for dinner based on what you say."
"?!?!"
Feeling the annoyance rising in Leon's heart, realizing he's serious, the Black Sheep's head can't help but tremble, and hurriedly squeaks:
"You can't avoid reality! Your sister, she's not... She must be human! Absolutely human!"
Seeing the knife in Leon's hand retract slightly, the Black Sheep can't help but exhale in relief and cautiously says:
"But I think, although she's human in this life, she might not have been in her previous life."
"Previous life?"
Leon can't help but be slightly stunned upon hearing this, then puts the kitchen knife back on the rack, frowns and counters:
"The Death Realm doesn't have reincarnation, right? Why would there be a previous life?"
"Reincarnation? What is that?"
"Reincarnation is... Well... You can understand it as a concept where after a person dies, instead of completely returning to the world's origin, they lose all memories from their previous life, and are reborn into the present world as a human again."
"Oh, oh..."
Nodding his head in understanding, the Black Sheep tries to comprehend:
"It sounds similar to the Soozheng Pool for the Angels and the Regret Mudflats for the Demons... Oh, right, the Regret Mudflats are like the demon version of the Soozheng Pool at the top of Heaven Mountain."
Sensing Leon's confusion, the Black Sheep explains:
"However, the effect of the Regret Mudflats is quite different from the Soozheng Pool of the Angels. The Soozheng Pool helps souls that have lost their bodies to recondense a new body, while the Regret Mudflats, after a demon is destroyed, absorb the demon's Strong Desire and Hatred, and recondense a new demon.
In simple terms, the pool for the Angels helps the souls that have lost their bodies to recondense a new body, while for the Demons, the body and power remain the same, but the soul that emerges is new."
