Heavenly Dao Child 292 What we lost, what we gained Part-1

A person opened his eyes before he closed it his eyes stung from the light of the room as he groggily tried to seat up only for an unknown female looking at him with concern as she spoke in a melodious voice, "Are you alright Ryuu?"

The name uttered by the woman send a fresh wave of headache as he looked up to the woman in front of him as he spoke, "Who are you?"

Maheswara was sipping a saucer full of wine when he perked up before a small smile cracked his face as he muttered to himself, "About time the brat awoke."

Nuwa stood up from her sitting position as she spoke, "We think we should go and visit him."

Maheswara nodded in agreement as they reached there, they were greeted by Antaiskh who was looking at Ryuu's room with a frown as Maheswara spoke curiously at that, "What happened daughter?"

Antariskh sighed as she spoke tiredly, "Identity crisis."

Nuwa nodded in understanding as she spoke, "It is expected after all he is not a reincarnated Immortal who took reincarnation but a cultivator who was forcibly made to remember his previous life he is bound to have some problems, all we can do is patiently help him out."

Later that day Ryuu was sitting under a tree as Celestia approached him with a smile as she spoke, "How are you holding up Ryuu?"

Ryuu sighed as he spoke, "It seems all surreal upon experiencing that my life before my current one I do not know what to say."

Celestia nodded at him as she took a seat beside him as Ryuu spoke with a sigh, "So 30 years huh."

Celestia nodded at that as she spoke, "Yes you were in deep meditative for 30 long years."

Ryuu let out a sigh as he looked on the ground for a few minutes before she spoke, "3rd mistress is there a way to know Beatrix and my children's fate?"

Celestia nodded at that before she spoke, "Yes there is, although many years have passed after your execution but you do not have to worry the conspiracy was exposed by Beatrix herself."

Ryuu had a small smile on his face as Celestia spoke with a kind smile, "Do you wish to see your children?"

Ryuu's eyes widen for a second before he spoke, "You have their picture."

Celestia snorted at that before she spoke in a haughty tone, "Why would I need pictures when I can take you there for you to see them with your own to eyes."

Ryuu did not know what to say as he spoke his tone sounding almost desperate at that as he spoke, "When can we go?"

Celestia bit her lips before she spoke, "Ryuu before you go I think there is something I should tell you before you go there.", causing Ryuu to tense at that before he gave a small nod.

Celestia: "There have been a few decades since you have been dead, so do not be alarmed if you see them all grown up."

Ryuu nodded at that as he spoke, "I have no problem with that."

Celestia gave him a small smile before she presented her hand to Ryuu who held it almost like a lifeline and a brief flash later the duo vanished from their place.

A myriad of colors assaulted Ryuu's vision as the motherly voice of his teacher came to his ears, "You can close your eyes Ryuu it would take some time for us to descend to the lower realm."

A few miuntes later, which to Ryuu was like an eternity the duo descended to the previous realm where Ryuu was born as Keitaro, one of the many lower realms where people or any living organism were simply mere mortals and would never evolve into something higher.

The sky rumbled as dark clouds formed and hidden by the stormy clouds a rip appeared on the sky as two figures stepped out, as Ryuu smoke in amazement, "Wow, this is amazing, by the way teacher how did you find this place?"

Celestia simply at him as she spoke, "Well when you started reliving your past life during your meditation, I thought you might want to visit the place of your birth during your previous birth so using super secret methods I was able to find this place and a few snooping around helped me to locate your family, after all you are immensely famous now let us go we have to visit your family."

Ryuu nodded eagerly at that as he flew alongside his master to a city, well large city as the scene looked to him like some kind of futuristic to him as he watched everything at awe before Celestia spoke with a smile on her face, "Welcome to Keitaro City."

Ryuu gave her the most intelligent answer as he spoke in a confused tone, "Huh?"

Celestia smiled at that as she spoke, "Well this city is named after you dear, and see over there the park even has your statue."

Ryuu looked at that in awe as he spoke, "Really but why?"

Celestia gave him a deadpanned stare as she spoke, "You saved the entire race from extinction, the people are grateful to the point someone has even started a church worshiping you calling you a modern day 'Messiah'."

Ryuu had a look of disbelief on his face as he spoke, "You are pulling my legs now right?"

Celestia had an amused look on her face as she spoke, "Than explain me what is that thing over there."

He looked towards his left and he saw a building with murals of him well more like his previous self standing with a halo behind his head and a saintly smile as the words 'The Grand Church Of Ketaroism' was written on the building, Ryuu did not know if he should cry or laugh at that as Celestia smoke with an amused look on her face, "Well come on Ryuu we have places to be."

A few minutes later Celestia escorted Ryuu to a hospital causing him to frown, 'Grand pa was already old by the time of my death and it has been many years since then I hope I am going to meet my child grown up working in the hospital.'

As they were about to enter Celestia spoke to Ryuu with seriousness present in her voice at that as she spoke, "Ryuu I have made sure that we are like a ghost to this people that means neither could they see us so try not to interact with anything as well as try to control yourself."

Ryuu nodded as he was brought to a room where a 60 somethin woman was lying on the bed, apparently she had an accident and had broken her hip sitting a long side was a male of similar years chatting with her in a jovial tone well more like reminiscing about something from a long time ago as many younger people were present with amused smile on their faces, Ryuu looked at them as he spoke to this teacher, "Mistress, why are we inside this room."

Celestia gave a tired sigh as she spoke, "You wanted to meet your children right?", Ryuu nodded at that as Celestia continued speaking, "Well there they are Ryuu, the old woman on the bed is Sabrina McDougall your daughter and the old man is Yosuke Inazuma your son."

Ryuu's jaw dropped upon hearing that before he spoke with a panicked look on his face, "So that means."

Celestia gave him a sad smile as she spoke, "Yes Keitaro she is no more, do you wish to visit her grave?"

Keitaro gave a small nod as Celestia felt the sadness and pain oozing out of him, as she beckoned him to follow with a last look on his children he left the room but not before giving a small smile and a few parting words for her children, "Sorry my children, sorry for being such a lousy father but no this I am proud of you two."

Yosuke and Sabrina grew up listening to various stories about their father about how he was the person who saved the planet and how he got rid of dreadful deceases but still they his absence created a whole in their heart but for the first time in their life they suddenly felt filled with happiness like the time when their mother praised them but most importantly they felt a warmth they have not felt since their mother's death as they looked at the other side of the room as if someone was there, all they saw the vase of Lilly which had dried up and needed replacement was in full bloom with vibrant color how strange.

Meanwhile Ryuu stood in front of grave with his eyes misty because of unshed tears as he read the headstone of a particular grave,
