The Reincarnated Sage ~I Will Forge the Strongest Empire in the Demon Forest!~

A big miss?

At first the Great Sage thought he heard wrong.

But he wasn't wrong.

His mother is crying and his father has a wry expression on his face.

(Magic out of balance? What's going on. What is going on in this day and age? (No, more importantly, if it's an outlier, they can throw it away, right?

If you are abandoned, you will die for sure.

But she couldn't complain or run away when she was a baby.

The mother doesn't want to give her child to her, so she fights back.

But in the end, it's ripped away by force.

Then the Great Sage was wrapped in a blanket and given to a knight in shining armor.

A trusted subordinate, apparently.

His father had assigned him to dump the baby in the great forest.

The father must never tell anyone. I'm warning the knight to part with his feelings and do his job.

The knight bowed and accepted his assignment.

And he rode directly to the Great Forest of Furazes.

What are you going to do? (What should I do?)

The Great Sage racked his brain for a way out of this hopeless rush .

But no matter how many times he thought about it, the only answer he could come up with was that there was nothing he could do.

You can't move your body, you can't speak, and you can't use magic.

You can't move your body, you can't speak, and you can't use magic.

You're abandoned in the woods and then picked up by chance. There's a chance, but it seems unlikely. they'd be put deep in the woods where it's unlikely anyone would come.

We may have to let the knight's conscience decide.

His father seemed to trust him, but maybe he'd be reluctant to do the terrible thing of abandoning the baby.

The Great Sage resigned himself to the outcome, hoping faintly.

It didn't take long to reach the Great Forest.

The knight walked deep into the woods.

They were attacked by monsters but easily beaten back.

Then, without hesitation, he put the Great Sage in his baby form at the tree's roots and left.

The Great Sage knew that his fate was now sealed.

Now he would either die when the monster found him, or he would starve to death without being found.

I couldn't tell her where she would be born, so I knew there was a chance this would happen.

But I knew that if she was born properly and not stillborn, she would be able to live until she was five years old, when her magical power would awaken.

(Was this what I had hoped for, that it had come to this? Was I alone in trying to live a second life and I was the only one with a bee in my bonnet?

Then I guess I'll have to do it, ......, muttered the Great Sage and closed his eyes.

He was beginning to accept that his true death was coming.

Maybe this was fate again, he realized.

Just then.

Hey, mum. Hey, Mom. There's something here.

I heard that voice.
