The Kaiser Reborn

On the night of January 1, 2024, at a construction site in New York City.

"God, life is so boring. The end of the world was promised. You and the Mayans colluded to deceive people, right?" a young man in his early twenties said to himself as he lay in bed. The young man's name is James. He is 22 years old and graduated from a university. He just started an internship this year and his job is construction work.

"Hey, I should have known I shouldn't have studied civil engineering back then. I'd be better off studying literature. At least I'd have girls," James lamented when he thought about this.

"Shit, the salary is 280 dollars, the lowest in the entire construction site. I live in a dilapidated prefabricated house with rats as companions. It would be great if I could travel back in time. After thinking about it, I turned my head and looked at the computer beside the top bunk. The computer screen was still on, and on the screen I saw a fictional article from a certain website describing a chapter about a man who conquered the world.

"If you're free, let's play Napoleon Total War," James thought and opened the folder to enter the Napoleon Total War game interface. There were two completely different options on the interface: Napoleon's Journey and the Anti-French Alliance Journey. James joined the anti-French alliance without hesitation. The country he chose was of course Prussia. There was no way that the blood spirit of Great Prussia would still be deeply fascinating even hundreds of years later.

"I feel so sorry for Prussia. Frederick the Great was so majestic and so incompetent for future generations." After thinking about it, he clicked to start the game. Suddenly there was a thunder outside the window, "Shit, thunder in the winter is horrible." He lost consciousness before he could finish the thought.

As if he had been in a long dream, James suddenly woke up. He shuddered and looked around. He saw nothing but white around him. He looked left, right, up and down, and everything was white. "No, where is this? It looks like a laboratory in a science fiction movie," James muttered and stood up. Suddenly a large face appeared in front of me and said in a low voice.

You just died, and for being a good person in life you have another chance. Big face said.

"Don't you want to travel back in time? I can help you. Even if it's the age of dinosaurs, I can send you there. Come on, young man, treat me as a good person and make a good decision." Big Face said this, he looked at James with contempt.

Hearing this, James said angrily: "Damn it, I haven't had enough of the Wonderful World. I'm the only son in my family, what are my parents going to do? Screw you."

"Humph, I have chosen a very talented orphan to replace you, and tampered with their memories, so that even if you stand in front of your parents they will not recognize you. Do you want to wear it or not? If not, I will send you to hell. You should hurry up and find another one to play with," Big Face sneered without giving any face.

After hearing this, Jame said anxiously, "I accept, why not? Let me think about it. Oh, it's him." While he was thinking, an idea suddenly occurred to him and he flattered Big Face, "Big Face, can you let me travel through time and space to become Frederick William III, the King of Prussia?"

Okay, but you can't tell anyone about your time travel, otherwise you will be destroyed, understand?" Big Face said to James after hearing his request. 

* * * *

After he blinked, James felt dizzy, and when he woke up, he found himself in a super luxurious room.

Where is this?" James asked, and he heard his own "Yiyi Ya" voice. He raised his hand and saw that his hand was not that of an adult, but that of a baby.

"Okay, okay, let's calm down okay? We babies can't do anything else. Our adaptability has nothing to say." Before James could finish thinking, he felt like he was being lifted up. Her? Her blue eyes were like a lake with layers of waves, her eyebrows seemed to have endless melancholy, her nose was high, her cherry mouth seemed like God had given all his love to this woman, with a very sexy body.

"My poor child, your father is so cruel. Since he is so heartless, I will take you back to Heisen and let him suffer for the rest of his life." The woman shed tears as she spoke. Her tearful look made our protagonist feel very distressed. He could only utter a wailing sound to comfort her.

James felt that he was being carried for a while, and then he saw a beautiful woman coming over from the opposite side. She was a big beauty and had a little more charm than the woman holding him. The woman covered her mouth with her hands and smiled sweetly, "Dear Princess Louise, where are you going? And you are taking our lovely little prince with you."

"None of your business, you vixen, stay away from us mother and son," Louise said angrily.

"Hmph, Your Highness, I have no control over where you go, but I advise you to spend more time with the little prince. In two days, the little prince will be taken away."

"You, what did you say? Who dares to take my child away?" Louise roared like an enraged she-wolf.

"It seems that you don't know yet. According to the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Count Hans von Brunmenthal is responsible for teaching His Royal Highness the Prince. In two days, His Royal Highness will set off for Count Hans's fiefdom, Paretz. I heard that it is a deserted place. It may take a long time for you to see His Royal Highness the Prince in the future." After saying this, the woman covered her mouth and smiled charmingly and walked away.

Louise returned to the room with James in her arms, feeling lost. She ignored the maid's greetings along the way. She sat down on the bed and cried to James.

"My poor child, what should I do when you leave?" Then she burst into tears again.

James thought that he really became Frederick William III. Because of his sympathy for Frederick III, the tragic emperor of the same era as Napoleon, he once searched on Youtube and found that when Frederick William III was a child, he was adopted by the veteran Count Hans von Brunmenthal in his territory of Paretz. At that time, his father was having a hot affair with his Mrs. Wilhelmine von Lichtenau and obeyed her every word.

"Alas, he has been ostracized by his lecherous father and vixen since he was a child. No wonder Frederick III is so tragic." After thinking this, he felt very sympathetic to his mother Louise.

Louise's full name is Friederike Louise, the daughter of Count Hesse. It turns out that political marriages are not easy.

In July 1771, the infant Frederick William III was sent to Paretz, the territory of Count Hans von Brunmenthal. When he left, Louise cried so heartbrokenly that even little William (from now on, he will be called William instead of James) felt sympathy and reluctance for Louise. His father, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Prussia, Frederick William II, just stood on the steps in front of the palace and looked at our little William indifferently.
