Demon Lord's Reincarnation



When Ren saw the being that suddenly appeared before him, he could identify the other party almost instantly. This was the one most high, the absolute ruler of the endless universes, the controller of all laws between heaven and earth, supreme and unparalleled. The Omnipotent, the Omniscient, the Omnipresent, the ORIGIN.

The body of the ORIGIN looks like it was made up of multiple universes swirling within his deep abyss-like body. Just looking at the body of the ORIGIN makes one feel the vastness of the universe, it would make one feel the very breath of the universe.

Just simply standing in front of him, Ren could feel a sense of oppression that penetrated his very soul, but as a reincarnation of the Strongest Mortal Soul he could resist it, if it were anyone else they would've already knelt or if they were weaker died by simply being in the presence of the ORIGIN. 

"As expected of my favorite son, even after observing my true body you still remain unfazed."

The voice that came out of the ORIGIN was not like anything Ren has ever heard before. The closest thing he could think of that was somewhat similar was the voice of Chaos and Serenity, the tone which was both man and woman, ancient and young, overbearing and fragile. The ORIGIN's voice was like the meshing of two extremes.

If you're not powerful enough simply hearing the ORIGIN's voice would turn a person insane, but to those worthy, the sound of his voice brings endless enlightenment. 

"Where you the one who killed them?" Ren went straight to the point and directly asked the ORIGIN the question that has been in his mind the very moment he saw the ORIGIN. Even though his emotions were all over the place at the moment, the tone of his voice as he spoke was that of pure indifference. 

"That's a weird question to ask me. The act of Killing means actively depriving another person's life, correct? If that is so, then the answer to your question is I did not kill anyone." 

When Ren heard the ORIGIN's way of answering he frowned. 

"Then how did my companions die? How did those three come back to life to fight me? So either you're lying or there is someone else here that killed them." 

"Oh my beloved son, as you should know I never lie, there will never be a reason for me to lie. Still, if those are your questions then the answer is different from before. You see, the moment I was able to escape that prison you my beloved son placed me in, I wanted to meet you. So I was about to teleport you directly to me, but then I quickly scanned all various universes and dimensions even through time but for some reason, I could not find you. Of course, this kind of thing was as expected of my favorite son. Seeing how shyly you avoided me I decided to do something else."

The way the ORIGIN spoke made Ren feel his deep affection, but within that affection was something indescribable.

'Is it perhaps the madness the original incarnation kept talking about?'

"This is not madness my son but truly my love for you." The ORIGIN spoke as if he read Ren's mind which made the latter frown. "Don't be alarmed my son, you know my Omniscience does not work on you, I cannot read your mind, but I know you very well."

"Now where was I... Oh right, so since I couldn't find you I decided to invite those close to you. I simply wanted to talk to them. It was unfortunate, I thought as people close to you they would be strong, I guess some of them were but most of them were a disappointment. The moment I summoned them here almost all of them died instantly within my presence."

"You told me you didn't kill them... What is this then?" Ren wanted to shout at the ORIGIN and attack but he did neither, he continued to speak in an indifferent tone and held himself back from attacking. Still, the ORIGIN could sense his true feelings.

"Calm down my son, I really didn't kill them. As you know only those strong enough are allowed in my presence. I expected that you of all people would only associate with the strong, so I simply assumed that your companions were strong enough to stand in my presence but I was wrong." 

"How could someone like you make such a mistake, aren't you omniscient why don't you know how powerful my companions are?" 

"Did you forget my Omnipotence and Omniscience don't work on you? This ability of yours also extends to those who have interacted with you for a long time, my Omniscience becomes a little distorted when I encounter you or your companions. So I really had no idea that they were so weak." 

The more the ORIGIN spoke the more anger Ren felt, and for the first time, even the excitement for battle was overshadowed by this anger. 

"Still, they all didn't die instantly. There were indeed three people that suddenly attacked me." 

"So you killed them?" 

"I told you to calm down my son, I already said I didn't kill anyone. The moment they tried to attack me their attacks rebounded and hit them instead. They even used their most powerful skills without hesitation and the rebound was a hundred times stronger. Those three were really powerful, two of them didn't die even after taking a direct hit." 

"... Then were you also the one who resurrected the three I just fought?"

"Oh that was my gift to you, I know that you liked fighting so I chose those three since they had a history of fighting hearty battles against you. Seeing as they were already dead I decided to use them to entertain you. Unfortunately you my naughty son took some of my authority in the laws of life and death, which was why their resurrection was incomplete. Still, they did give you a bit of a warm-up, so were you entertained?" 

"..."

"Hmm, what's this it seems that my surprise wasn't able to please you. Hmm, wait are you perhaps truly mad at me?" 

"You don't know and will never understand what I'm feeling right now! Fear? Anger? Hatred? I'm already beyond all that!" Ren who was already holding the death scythe in his right hand summoned Snertal in his left hand.
