3 Welcome to the Azure World (Part 01)
'Twenty and three years, and what I'm supposed to do until the end? The only thing I can think of doing now is trying to study the knowledge and information that I have absorbed in mine last two lifetimes and seek for loopholes.'
In this way, he started to analyse his memories. What can remember a man who lived for twelve hundred years? He finally got free time to study his mind after his second life.
The only memory he has kept about his first life was his name, the name of the place he was born, the name of his parents and his great deeds. He remembered that he loved but didn't even know her name or what happened between them.
Other discovery of his is that his deeds in both of his lives count to nothing once we take in account the extinction of humanity.
The speed of thinking, rationality, calculation abilities and maths and physics knowledge seemed intact. But obviously in front of this new reality (or craziness) and the supreme master it was relatively close to zero...
"I lived nearly 90% of my life inside a machine, lose my real body and I will live inside a better fitting one, I can't remember my parents and the people who lived with me and, the worst part, the only conversation I had in the last forty years was with that AI. And it doesn't even know my name... Is just Mr. 1224231 this, Mr. 1224231 that...
What is the point to still call me Jose? Who I am, after all?"
With this and other thoughts he passed 22 of his 23 years of pain and torture. In this total of 22 years he could notice two things:
1. Each second worsened the pain.
2. The worse the pain he surpassed, more stable his mind became.
At the 22 years of rebuilding he listened:
" 'Total Integration between soul and body' process is done - Completion: 85/87.
Next phase: Sealing Memories and return to the zygote phase.
Prevision to finish all the steps: 01 years.
Have a good time!"
"Wait, ALFAAAA, wait! What do you mean by sealing mine memories? Why should you do that?"
"Mr. 1224231, all this is necessary for the research made by supreme master... To don't disrupt some fundamental laws of the universe we can't afford to let a mortal soul live for more than 5 hundred years. So, I will wipe your memory and send you to another world, where will happen the second phase of the research.
I will use this time to make some things clear to you. You aren't the last human being alive, just the last human being who originated from the evolution pressure existent on Gaia Treasure. The principal objective of supreme master is to comprehend and study all the characteristics of humanity.
It's only by the order of our master that I'm let you know all this stuff. The Gaian human was extinct because your race broken that fundamental law, in Gaia almost every human mortal soul lived for more than five hundred years. And you, you are the worst, you have lived twelve hundred years...
I need you to know that your kind, as Gaian humans, wasn't supposed to have any little degree of soul ascension. Even in other treasures, or the real planets, are hard to ascend just one sub-level of the soul.
Our master theorized that with the absence of mana, your world failed to provide physical strength to your race. So, you needed to force the brain, therefore your soul, to get solutions that made your feeble species the ruler of your world. Because of that there were a few dozen humans who broke the first mortal soul shackles.
The only reason that made you survive the calamity, the one that comes when some mortal lives for more than five hundred years, is that you broke through both shackles of the mortal soul stage. Other reason to make you reincarnate is to give more time to your soul to be present at our master's research.
We can't be precise when you broke the first shackle, but it was at your teenager. It was at that point that Gaia started to make personal reports about you. Between cultivators is common to break the first shackle in the teens, but between mortals who couldn't feel the slight trace of mana it made you some kind of genius.
The second shackle was broken when your brain was so damaged that your soul was fragile and chaotic. You brought your own soul to normality, steadily and slowly. Each step you made in this phase of healing was to make sure that your mind cannot never do a step back. After all effort, you could return to be a super intelligent Gaian human, breaking in process the second shackle.
'The effect was supposed to be greater than before, and I was supposed to be even more outstanding', maybe you thought. But you were a genius between your peers even when using your damaged brain connected with low quality synthetic neurons to feel the universe through machines that failed to provide you all the feelings that a normal person should have.
But the most surprising thing is that you had an epiphany just before dying. You saw the gate to sanctity and, if it wasn't for the extinction of your species or the absence of nutrients your soul would have been a Saint.
This is, one more time, a signal of your luck. If you could become a Saint, we could not give you an enhanced and more capable body. You would have to reconstruct your old body yourself, but without any knowledge of how to do it.
My master decided to give you a gift before forcing you to reincarnation. You will discover, if the lady luck let you remember..."
"Wait, Alfa, you have some information before I go?"
"Yes, prepare for being bullied for the first five years of your life. You need to know that even if your body is handmade for you and you have a powerful soul you will take one year to show signs of hearing and sight, two years to walk and more three to start to talk.... If you want to retrieve all your previous knowledge wait more 8 years moreover..."
"Where I'm going to?"
"You will go to the Azure World, a real planet. Gaian Treasure was moulded with Azure World as reference. The principal difference is that in Gaia there was an absence of one primordial force of nature, aka mana. You will find delightful live in this new world. Hahahaha"
At this point our hero was silenced by the rebuilding process of his body and the escalating pain that comes with...
A year later, on Azure World, a specifically unlike couple of a big clan of one village find themselves pregnant...
