"Where is this? Am I not dead?"
The boy opened his eyes blankly and muttered to himself.
Darkness, chaos, no light in sight. In the boy's memory, he should have been hit and killed by a speeding truck…
"Ah, you are dead."
A vague voice suddenly sounded in the chaotic space, making the boy nervous instantly.
"Who are you?"
Trying to remain calm, the boy asked.
"Who am I…"
"You'll know, one day."
After a moment of silence, the ethereal voice sounded again.
Just as the boy was about to ask something else, a ray of light suddenly flashed in the dark and chaotic space, and a bright and dazzling gem floated in front of the boy. Although the light emitted by the gem was very soft, the boy subconsciously blocked his eyes with his hands.
"It's called [Artifact Plunder], and it's a divine tool that can plunder any divine tool. Use it well, and then pass it on to the next generation of reincarnation."
He had absolutely no idea what the other person was saying, about artifacts or reincarnation, but just as the vague words fell, the jade floating in the air shone brightly, and then suddenly rushed into the boy's body.
No, the dead boy no longer had a body, only a soul. The mysterious gem rushed into the boy's soul and then merged with it!
Uneasy, perturbed, and confused… the boy saw an illusory figure in the chaotic space. He didn't know who the other person was, let alone what the other person wanted to do to him. The boy wanted to shout and ask, but found that he couldn't speak at all.
As the souls of the jade and the boy continued to merge, the entire space began to shake, twist and collapse, and then turned into a black vortex, instantly swallowing up the boy's soul…
…
"Wow…what is this place…"
After an unknown amount of time, the boy opened his eyes again. He was talking to himself subconsciously, but the sound he made was like a baby crying.
"Master Phoenix, this is our child…"
"Okja, you are too weak, use Phoenix Tear quickly."
What came into view was a beautiful woman and a resolute man. The woman gently caressed herself, her pale face full of kindness and tenderness. The man cared for the woman, and a rare joy also appeared on his resolute face.
They are their parents…
Although it was only a moment, the baby with the soul of a young boy knew it immediately. He seemed to have been reborn and became the child of the couple.
Although he still had no idea what kind of world this was, nor who his parents were in this life, the boy quickly accepted this fact. After all, he had nothing to worry about in the other world, and being able to get a new life and have parents that he didn't have in his previous life seemed pretty good.
However, Phoenix, this last name seems familiar.
With doubts in his heart, the boy who turned into a baby soon fell into a deep sleep…
Time is like flowing water, passing away in the flow, ten years later——
"Nine hundred and ninety-seven… nine hundred and ninety-eight… nine hundred and ninety-nine… one thousand!"
"Ha ha..."
In the yard, the young man put down the sword in his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and gasped heavily.
The boy, who is already ten years old, has short black hair and a pair of black eyes. Although his handsome face is still quite childish, he has a calmness that does not belong to his age.
This is only natural as we live two lives.
After returning to the house and washing off the sweat on his body, the boy took out some ingredients from the refrigerator and walked into the kitchen.
There seemed to be only the young man in the huge room, which seemed a little deserted.
Shen Ye Tianluo, the boy's name in this life!
Four years ago, Tianluo's mother passed away. His mother's name was Shen Ye Yuzi, and Tianluo inherited his mother's surname instead of his father's.
It seemed that my mother had suffered from some terminal illness a long time ago. According to the doctor, it was an incredible miracle that she was able to give birth to me and raise me until I was six years old.
Tianluo knew that this was a miracle called maternal love.
After his mother passed away, Tianluo was sad for a long time, but he finally cheered up.
Even if he was sad, life had to go on. What's more, he had promised his mother that he would eat well, sleep well, and live hard and strong every day in the future.
Well, in the future, I will have to find many beautiful and capable wives to take care of me instead of her…
As for Tianluo's father——
That's a demon, a real demon!
There is no irony in this, but it means literally that Tianluo's father is a demon, and he is the famous Phoenix, one of the legendary "Seventy-two Pillars of Heaven"!
At first, he was a little skeptical, but after coming to this world for ten years, Tianluo had already completely confirmed it.
This world that gave him a new life turned out to be the world of an anime called "High School" that he had watched in his previous life!
Manga-themed apparel
Monsters, elves, demons, angels, fallen angels…even dragons and gods, these beings that are supposed to exist only in fantasy, actually exist in this world!
Although he initially thought that he might have been reborn in a world similar to High School, when he found out that a couple named Hyoudou lived not far from his home and that they had a baby named Hyoudou Issei, Tianluo no longer had any doubts.
With a father who is a demon and a mother who is a human, and as a hybrid of a human and a demon, Tian Luo has inherited the best genes from both species. He feels that he should have been an extraordinary being.
However, ideals are beautiful, but reality is always so helpless.
Perhaps Tianluo's mother loved him too much. She gave Tianluo black hair, black eyes, and even a face that was so handsome that even girls would be jealous of it.
Therefore, the genes of his demon father seemed to be completely overwritten. Tianluo had no talent for practicing magic, nor could he awaken the bloodline of the Phoenix clan's phoenix. He didn't even have the most basic demon wings!
Thus, the news of "the useless illegitimate son of the Phoenix family" spread throughout the underworld.
Those who cannot awaken the blood of the Phoenix are not qualified to inherit the name "Phoenix", so Tianluo inherited his mother's original surname. Although Tianluo himself didn't care much, his mother still took him away from the Phoenix clan's territory and returned to the human world, taking care of him and raising him up until she passed away four years ago.
After his mother's death, although his father, the current head of the Phoenix family, also suggested that Tianluo return to the underworld, he was rejected by Tianluo.
Family vacation packages
He has become accustomed to this place where he and his mother live, and having lived two lives, he is fully capable of taking care of himself. Being free is better than anything else.
"I'm starting."
After placing the prepared food on the table, Tianluo clapped his hands and started eating.
Mm, it tastes good. It seems his cooking skills have improved again…
