292 What we lost, what we gained Part-1 (1/2)

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.
