Immortality System: The Last Human's Transmigration

Seeing one of the beastkin come closer and eventually, he felt our auras and came closer. Eventually, he landed right in front of us, causing the rest of the beastkin to widen their eyes, halt their steps, and salute with resolute expressions.

The man looked at us coldly, yet his gaze grew colder when it landed on me.

"Sir!" They all shouted from behind me, causing me to look back with a tinge of surprise.

"Sir?" I asked, my eyes narrowed down on the man in front of us.

"Salute. He is a general from the army." Klive whispered, making me crack a smile in amusement.

'I wonder how strong he is. I can't really specify precisely how strong he is from my blood eyes alone, but I can understand that he is a little stronger than me and much stronger than Klive. However, maybe with my experience with life and death fights, I will have the capabilities to fight back against this monster.'

"Do you have no respect? Salute!" The man sneered his teeth, but I continued to look at him with amusement.

"You first." I retorted an action that caused his expression to become grimmer.

"What did you just-" The man paused as suddenly, a man appeared behind him, and a figure held him back.

Seeing this figure, I knew I would have no chance against it. It was far too fast for my vision, and I could do nothing but watch as he appeared behind him.

The man looked back with a surprised expression, but his expression instantly turned into terror when he was the smiling face of a well-known man.

"Head general... What are you doing here?" He asked with a shaky voice.

"Its better if you leave for now." He nodded and quickly glanced at me.

I could feel a mighty pressure fall on me, yet since it was not followed by dread, I did not move a muscle and knew he wouldn't attack me.

"That boy, he might not seem like it because of his low cultivation, but he is much stronger than you." The man whispered with a voice I could not hear from where I stood.

The man looked at the head general with shock but did not dare question his words. In an instant, he disappeared from seeing everyone but the head general and me.

My eyes followed him for a few seconds before I eventually lost interest and looked at the head general again. My disinterested gaze was not missed by the head general, causing him to crack a small smile as he looked into my eyes, the pressure he released increasing my manifolds by the second, yet despite that, my posture did not falter.

It was nothing compared to the dread I felt standing in front of that elf. It was nothing compared to the dread I felt when standing in front of Gaia too.

"You may enter our city. I will not ask for your origins, but our king wants to meet you..." The head general stated, instantly making my eyes narrow with skepticism. Catching the king's attention was never a good thing, and when it came to this situation, it could have been considered the worst possible outcome.

"Why does he want to meet me?" I asked while not trying to hide my skepticism and distrust.

"Well, he felt you enter the forest, so he wanted to meet the person who created such a commotion. And now that I can see that you are nearly unaffected by my aura, I can only guess that you are the reason.

"Alright sure..." I shrugged nonchalantly and followed the man without care for my safety. Of course, I was making sure to keep my guard up. Dying right now would be detrimental not only to my life but also to my mission. Dying would mean I was one step closer to death, and something like that would mean I would not be able to get my revenge.

My two blades were left unsheathed, and my gaze remained on the person's back. Klive and the other three also chose to follow us since it was the safest route, especially since there was a head general with them now, meaning no beast would dare and attack one of them because it would mean instant death, not that it didn't mean instant death when I was around.

We walked for several minutes, and when the walk started reaching the half-hour threshold, we finally stooped in front of a towering wall that reached the skies. I could barely see the end from the angle we stood at, and since there were several trees in the way before, I couldn't see it without using blood.

Since blood eyes would take a lot of mana to activate repeatedly, I chose to not activate it for something as simple as looking at a wall and satisfying my curiosity.

Walking past the wall, the head general flashed a badge at the men who guarded the gates and didn't even take a glance at them. I walked right past, and even though it seemed they wanted to stop me, the head general released his aura and froze them on the spot, allowing me to walk past without verbal interaction.

We kept walking, my eyes scanning everything around me with a curious gaze.

Houses, while not looking as modern as any of the human buildings as skyscrapers, they still looked efficient.

None of them were made out of brick, and none looked like they needed to be renewed, meaning they mainly looked intact and not like they were about to fall apart.

People looked happy as families laughed with their children and grandparents. Everyone had smiles on their faces, and none of them looked downcast.

I could not see a single 'poor' person or a single beggar on the street. While this might have meant that the government was sweeping them out of them off the streets, I doubted that this was the case. Even we humans had a problem with homelessness, poverty, and the gap between the low and high class only grew over the years while the political spectrum became wider and wider. Yet here, all I could see were happy people who lived every second of their lives to the fullest.

'This is how life should be lived.' I smiled and looked at some of the children playing a game that involved clashing stones together by throwing one from a distance to trying to hit one on the ground.

These children were beastkin, and even though it shouldn't have been much of a surprise, I still found it slightly weird for children younger than my sister used to be to throw rocks and hit something over 50 meters away.

I looked away after a few seconds, and my gaze landed on two children sparring with wooden swords, determined gazes clashing as a little girl, less than 9 years old yet slightly older than the two of them, looked at the battle with flushed cheeks. I could already understand what was happening since I saw a scene like this back on Earth, but I still could not help but smile at their antics.

The head general saw my smile and gazed at what I was looking at before widening his eyes in surprise.

"Do you have siblings?" He asked, talking to me properly for the first time since I met him.

An expression of pain washed over my face, something that did not go unnoticed by the analyzing gaze of the head general. He immediately concluded what that expression meant, and his eyes dropped onto the floor as pity filled his eyes.

"I did..." I replied with a warm smile, and my gaze pointed towards the sky.

"Sorry..." He replied with a solemn atmosphere looming over his head.

"I also lost my little brother when I was just a child. I know the pain you are feeling, but you are taking it much better than I did when I was your age." He explained, making me look at him with a raised brow.

"I doubt that..." I replied, rage flickering within my eyes for a split second while a killing intent was on the brink of washing over everyone in the area.

"I see... revenge isn't always the right choice." They explained, but at that point, I had stopped listening. My resolve had already been steeled, and my mind had been morphed towards only thinking of one outcome. It was either my death or the massacring of every elf on this planet, if not in the universe.

After a few more moments, I felt a nudge from Klive, making me look back with an inquisitive gaze.

"what is it?" I asked.

"We are going to go home. When you finish your talk with the..." He paused, and his hand shook slightly- "With the king... Come to the Flexter household and tell them that I invited you." He smiled wryly and quickly left without waiting for my answer.
