1 Death and Rebirth

Louie was sleeping in his king sized bed peacefully. He gave off a aura that made you feel calm if looked at. As he seemed to be asleep, it was far from the truth, in actuality he was wide awake feeling a hostile presence in his room.

Being calm he waited for the perfect time to confront this unknown figure. The presence suddenly charged at him, full speed.

In an instant Louie was behind the presence readying a strike with his bare hand. Like lightning his fist shot towards the figure and pierced its chest like a hot knife going through butter.

As he could hear a cough and blood hitting the floor, a hoarse voice could be heard.

"I got you now… you son of a bitch"

Louie felt his arm get gripped by two hands with grip strength that wasn't humanly possible. At this moment he knew what the figure was going to do.

"FUCK, YOU CRAZY BASTARD"

Not giving him time to flee the figure suddenly blew up as a massive explosion occurred.

After a few minutes the smoke started to calm down as Louie exited the house that was now into rubble. His clothes were all torn and his body had multiple wounds.

Stumbling he went towards a safe area before lying down. He started to circulate Qi around his body starting to heal it. But he heard a sweet alluring voice.

"Oh! Louie, what happened to you!"

Not a second later soft hands touched his chest. He opened his eyes to see a beautiful woman with a worried expression. Not wanting to worry her more Louie explained.

"I was sleeping but I felt an unknown presence in my room… obviously an assassin. But when he was about to die he grabbed my arm and exploded his cultivation base doing this to me…"

A second past as the woman was quiet until she let out a sigh.

"Ughhh I guess he failed… he didn't even poison you… I guess I have to do everything if I want it done right!"

Louie was confused for a second before realising his doom. He tried to distance himself away but his injuries weren't light. He was too slow as a palm went through his chest pulverising his heart.

"Y-you bitch… To believe I actually trusted a person like you…"

The woman laughed hysterically as she spat on him.

"You really think I liked you? I was only being friendly since your a cultivation genius. Now I have used you enough and you're of no use to me anymore so I'm getting rid of something I don't need."

As Louie was starting to loose his senses all he could think about was how much he messed up in life. All of his regrets during his long lifetime.

After a short minute he couldn't see, hear or smell anything. All he felt was his blood slowly exiting his body as he started to feel colder and colder until he couldn't feel nothing at all.

His consciousness was floating around in a pitch black void. Although it was kinda scary it had a feeling of warmth and protection, like you'll never be in harm again.

After who knows how long of floating in the endless void a powerful and commanding voice echoed throughout the whole entire void making the existence tremble.

"Ahh a lost soul that strayed from the path of reincarnation… Oh? What's this? Hmmm… a will this strong isn't normal… especially being isolated in this void for millennium after millennium… it should be broken… interesting."

After a while the voice echoed again but this time more intrigued.

"I see, I see… a unbreakable will to redo all of your regrets… Hahahaha, this is interesting indeed! Ok, what to do… I know, why don't I get a little entertainment from you… BEGONE"

Louie consciousness then blacked out and his soul got sent to the past to when cultivation wasn't a thing on earth yet.

Not knowing what really happened Louie shot up with his eyes widened. He looked around surprised, he was on a single bed that was quite uncomfortable as the springs were poking out a bit from the mattress.

He looked around the room to see that it was very cramped and not a lot of space. It was a very small room that was painted a light grey. In the room was a small single bed that Louie was on, a wooden desk and a wardrobe.

Getting out of the bed Louie could feel his cultivation base erased.

"What? Where am I and what happened to my cultivation?!"

Louie then started to remember what had happened to him.

"Right… I have died… and that voice, what was it?"

He didn't know how to react to what had happened to him. He just sat on the side of the bed contemplating on what he should do next. As he looked around more he suddenly knew where he was.

"Holy shit… I'm in my childhood bedroom… IM IN MY CHILDHOOD BEDROOM?!"

He started to look around and found a phone on a desk. As he turned it on he looked at the date and time.

[8:47 am, 25 of December ****]

As Louie saw the year it was he was shocked. He dropped down to the bed again as he let out a large sigh. He didn't know how to truly feel. He was still conflicted on what transpired in his last moments alive.

The person he trusted betrayed him by killing him. He was extremely angry, but he couldn't do nothing about it.

Suddenly he burst out into laughter. The reason was that the game that started everything hadn't been released yet. Cultivation was discovered by someone who used a technique from the game called 'Realm' in real life.

The world then went into a era of cultivation, and then ones with power ruled all and the people who were weak were trampled on.

But now that he was thrown to the past before the game was released. He had the knowledge before anyone in the world, the secret locations, hidden tasks/favours and top tier Items and how to make them.

Louie then got up from the bed and walks out of his room, he goes down the stairs and enters the dining room to see a middle aged man in which to be his late 30's early 40's.

The man was on a tablet scrolling through the news with his glasses on. A woman could be seen in her late 30's early 40's in the kitchen cooking breakfast.

Louie starts to tear up a bit as he sees them, his dear parents that shown nothing but love to him, alive doing their routine like everything's normal. He held back his tears and greeted his parents cheerfully.

"Hey mum! Hey dad!"

The parents jumped at his sudden appearance in the room and gave off a warm smile as his mum walked up to him and gave him a massive loving hug.

"Good morning my baby boy!"

Louie felt warm as he was shown motherly love after thousands of years. He then started to help out making breakfast and setting the table.

Louies parents were surprised as he never really helped out around the house at all. But all of a sudden this change was very surprising but welcome.

After eating breakfast Louie went to go to his room and buy the game pod to play 'Realm' but his mother suddenly calls to him.

"Sweetie! Don't forget you have college today!"

Louie then suddenly started to sweat a little. He remembered going through college once, he didn't want to go through it again. There was nothing really good there.

As he was about to make an excuse up he remembered something that gave him the motivation to go. His home room teacher, she was a extremely beautiful woman that was cold to everyone. She was also quite strict due to the reason that she was serious about her job.

Louie immediately had a shower and got dressed heading out the door until his mum shouted him again.

"Don't forget your bag! Don't you also want me to drop you off? Since it's your first day?"

Louie thought about it and sat down on the couch waiting for his mother to drop him off. After she got ready Louie got his bag and they headed off to his college.

Once they got there Louie got out the car and his mother lovingly said.

"Have a nice day sweetie, I hope you enjoy your first day. Love you!"

Louie warms up inside as he smiles back.

"Love you too, have a nice day. Bye!"

She then drove off and Louie walked into the building and started to navigate his way to his home room to get started with the day.
