Rise of Myriad Magic Emperor

[Near Red River]

Kai and Jai were looking at the horse before them and rubbing their eyes. To make sure they are awakened and not seeing any illusion

"Elder Asava! Are... Are you still alive?"asked Jai with mixed feelings of nervousness and excitement.

"Ofcourse, I am dead. My soul was about to re-enter the cycle of rebirth. When suddenly a hand came and dragged me. Later, he awakened my previous life memories while not deleting the recent life memories. Telling me that some of my loved ones need him now, ``said Asava with a gentle smile on his face.

Hearing that Kai remained dead last words.

"A gift, he was talking about Asava,"thought Kai.

He doesn't know what to say? the ruler of Death and Darkness. Sense of gift is completely on a different level. To think he will send a dead person to meet them.

But Kai was happy with the gift. Elder Asava has been the oldest and wisest of all the magic beasts, but when he meets for the first time. He was already very old and was not able to move because of his old sickened body and lied down inside a cave. Eventually he died when Kai was eleven years old.

Leaving everyone behind, that time was the first time Kai witnessed someone dear to him die and only to him but the entire community.

He was always there to guide him but after he died. There was no one to guide Kai to how to manage the beast community and balance in the forest.

But now, seeing Asava again is also in the state where he can move and not be sick. Kai felt joyful, even if he is more like a ghost now and was interested in what happened after he died.

Jai was also interested, after all Asava did say just now. That he entered the circle of rebirth before and again returned back to Samsara world. Meaning he died within the period of seven years and recently died again and returned back to Samsara world to be reborn again.

So, Jai asked with curiosity expressions and a sarcastic voice"Elder, how did you die so quickly in your next life?"

Hearing Jai's question and curious expression on Kai's face. Asava felt bitter and vomited out his tragic rebirth life.

"Well I don't have any memories of the time period between my death and rebirth"

"I was reborn as youngest prince of one of the nation of human race, known as Leweonada Empire and my name was Yeoman Amurri Nova, born under the constellation of sage of Wisdom. Everyone said that I was destined to become a great ruler and inherited the throne. After all, Emperor only has I and my elder sister in the line of succession. As my elder sister  Alexandria Emauri Nova is a woman, she didn't have the right to inherit the throne; according to the tradition of the empire. Seems my sister and I were really close to each other"Asava was really feeling when he remembered the face of her elder sister. As a member of imperial family he very well known about the destiny which away her, and continued with a low voice. 

"But as the time went by I kept growing intelligent. By the age of three, I have completed reading all the books in the imperial palace and have intelligence equal to that of an adult but side by side my body kept on declining. It seems my body was not able to keep up with my mind. My imperial family went everywhere and looked for many great medics but nobody was able to heal me.

One day, a sage from Heavenly Fate Tower. Who specializes in reading the destiny of a person told  my father that. That my body is too weak to bear the power of destiny of the constellation of sage of Wisdom and breaking my body from the inside at the cost of increasing my mind strength as well as intelligence. Tragically I died few days ago on my seventh birthday and got grabbed by the ruler of Samsara world and recovered by memories of previous life and send here to meet you guys"

Hearing that Kai and Jai looked at each other. It looks like their elder has lived a very short term life and died too early, even after being born in a strong imperial family.

Then Kai asked a question because he wanted to know more and wanted to get some more answers. Because he was getting a hunch that this information is going to be very important in the future.

"Elder, What is this constellation and destiny about? What was the name of the world you were born in? Do you get to know anything about the way of cultivation?"

Hearing Kai's question, Asava looked at Kai"How can you? Still tell me to remember those memories. Even after hearing my story, should you not tell me to forget it and move on. Don't you feel any sympathy and pity, asking me such questions with a straight face"thought Asava with bitterness and progressed to answer.

"From what I have read, the constellations are a group of star formation in the sky. Which determines the destiny of a person. Everyone one has some constellation associated with one and will affect the rank of bloodline of a person. My sage of Wisdom was one of the strongest constellations and very rare. I was already born in an imperial family with Emperor rank bloodline and because of the effect of the constellation. My bloodline was destined to become a saint rank bloodline turning the imperial family into one of the saint bloodline families among the humans. But it didn't happened and I died"

"The ancient name of the world was the Great Magic world and currently known as Pridadin. Where humans live in a human realm made up of various nine kingdoms, four empires and various cultivation sects forming the human alliance. Other races also have their own alliance and domain they live in. I think human realm is currently in war with a unknown realm I. Don't have any details about"

Hearing that, Kai 's expression turned serious. The continent is also part of the great magic world and they don't know which part of the world the continent exists in. It can be human or can be a domain hostile to human"thought Kai as he frowned 

"Hum.... as for the cultivation I don't have any idea. I don't find any cultivation related books in the imperial palace. But I can still tell that they are different"said Asava wisely.

Hearing that Kai nodded and entered deep thought but Asava interrupted him.

"Kai, ruler of Samsara world has told me. That I have to guide you guys back to the materialistic world and travel with you guys"

"According to the ruler, as soon as I left the place was called the ancient battlefield. I will be able to get a body which will be completely suitable for me"

Kai was shocked on hearing this news. It literally means that elder Asava is getting reborn in a sense or getting resurrected.

"So hurry up and sit on top of me. I am going to help you guys cross the red river of the underworld. So that we can re-enter the materialistic world"

Kai and Jai on the other hand looked at the red river before them. They have never known that the red river before them is the legendary red river of the underworld in myths. According to myths the red river is made up of red flames and always burning.

The flames are a blessing to the good souls while they cause unimaginable pain to evil souls as punishment for their sins.

Thinking so, Kai and Jai didn't delay further and sat on Asava's back as he flew across the red river.

Taking Kai and Jai into the other side of the river.

As soon as they reached the other end the fall started from the back of Asava as he turned transparent. The elemental essence body was gone.

While Jai felt, change in the law and almost kissed the ground due to the surge of emotions. He never knew that in a few hours, he would be so grateful for being born on the continent.

While Kai was looking ahead. A pillar of white flames was at a distance of five hundred metres from him with an ordinary black staff with a white glowing orb in the middle was floating in the middle of the tower of flames.

Illuminating the entire dark surrounding.

Seeing his Kai eyes brightened with pleasure.

"Finally we are in the core region, before the flames of eternal hope. The symbol that is even at the darkest of hours. The flames of hope never die off instead will burn brightest and strongest and the power of the hopeful will is strong enough to change even the will of the world. The place where we can finally destroy the god origin"

As Kai started to walk slowly towards the white flames with his tired body, followed by Jai and Asava with confidence and determination on his face.
