Chapter 38: Ch 38: Reunion (1)
Rein explained the situation to Stella and Tasha before going to the carriage where the count's relatives were staying. The carriage that the count was using was not a regular carriage but a magical one. The space inside was much bigger than what it looked from the outside.
Rein had taken a look at the carriage and after seeing that it was nothing too special other than having a larger space inside he did not pay any more attention to it. He was not interested in invading his clients privacy, so he did not use his Eye of Truth on any of them.
But now Rein was forced to use his Eye of Truth as the space inside the carriage was not what he had expected. It was vastly different from what he had seen before after using his ability on it.
The inside of the carriage was actually a domain, not any normal domain but a very powerful illusion domain. This was one of the things that was very powerful and effective for anyone but Rein, who could completely nullify this domain with his overpowered Eye of Truth.
"Oh, how surprising. I knew that you were powerful but to think that my domain is completely useless against you, I'm astonished."
Rein saw a little girl who looked like only 8 or 9 looking at him with amusement. She was quite small but her power level was exceptionally high and after analysing her with his Eye of Truth he learnt why.
She had a powerful inherent special ability. Rein was not sure about the effect of that ability, but from what he could see, it was quite a powerful ability. Most probably this ability allowed her to create the illusion domain.
But even after seeing Rein completely unharmed from it, she was still able to maintain her composer, that means she had other tricks up her sleeves.
"You don't look like someone who will cry after seeing some killing. Actually you have the aura that suggests that you have done your share of killing. So, why were you acting ?"
"Oh, I have never seen someone who could be a threat to me. But when I looked at you for the first time, my intuition told me that you can kill me. So I got scared and screamed. How embarrassing."
Rein used his Eye of Truth to judge that she was not lying. So he asked -
"So, if you were scared then why did you call me here."
"Obviously to get rid of you. With my invincible powers I will rule the world sooner or later. So I can't allow someone like you to exist in my world."
Saying this much that little girl pointed her fingers toward Rein did something. But nothing happened and Rein just tilted his head a bit in surprise. Doing it, Rein looked so handsome that even a little girl like her felt her heart skipping a bit.
But she again pointed toward Rein but just like before nothing happened.
This time, tears welled up in the little girl's eyes and she exclaimed -
"Why ? Why are you not becoming my playmate ?"
Rein was surprised but not because the little girl's powers were not working but because her powers were way weaker than he had expected.
With his eyes, Rein and judged the girl to be at transcendental indigo rank, but her recent attack was barely strong enough to just be considered a half step transcendental attack. So her true power level did not represent what Rein had analysed.
Seeing that the little girl was about to really cry, Rein took her on his lap and patted her head to calm her down. Feeling Rein's touch on her head and experiencing the gentle and loving headpats, the girl felt at ease. Very soon she left asleep while still hugging Rein.
Her name was supposed to be Lawine and she was truly extremely tired after using her ability many times this day. So when she was feeling a bit relaxed she fell asleep.
Rein looked around her to see that the other relatives of the count were all unconscious. So he focused on Lawine to learn more information about her with his Eye of Truth. Soon after analysing her for over an hour, he was able to find something astonishing.
Lawine was not only a powerful ability user, she also had memories of her previous life.
But from the looks of it, she died at a very young age in her previous life, so her maturity level was very low for a reincarnator. Reincarnation was uncommon but not overly so, as there were many abilities that allowed reincarnation.
After about two hours, Lawine woke up. Immediately she locked her eyes with Rein and blushed after noticing that she was sleeping while hugging Rein. Then Rein gently asked her to explain her situation to him. She did not deny Rein's request and told him everything about her.
For some reason, after snuggling up to Rein, she felt very safe and felt like she could trust Rein with her everything.
As soon as she started to tell Rein about her previous life, Rein started to shake a bit. He had an elder sister who had died when Rein was just 2 years old due to an illness. She was only 8 years old at that time.
And when Lawine started to describe her previous life, Rein found it to be exactly similar to his sister's life and the village that she was describing was also exactly similar to the Hart village.
Then she started to describe her current situation. After getting born in a family of a noble, she was never able to accept her new family. For her she was still Mona who had a kind mother, a jolly father and a cute brother.
She was never able to accept her role as Lawine Borrs, one of count Borrs offspring. And her father's and mother's indifferent attitude did not help the matter.
So, when she was able to awaken her inherent special ability which allowed her to create an illusion domain and she could even manipulate someone's mind to give them suggestions, she used this ability to make herself isolated from everyone.
Then suddenly, count Borrs started to get threats from his enemies so he sent all his relatives away. Since then Mona was always on the run and was feeling very stressed. Then she came across a story book where it was described that a powerful person should always try to rule over everything.
After reading that book, she thought that ruling the world would not be so bad. She was truly powerful and never felt any threat from anyone she ever came across.
So she was very surprised when suddenly saw a handsome man and felt that this man could kill her.
At first she just took a casual look at Rein and found him to be a bit familiar, but after scrutinizing him a bit she realised that she had the ability to kill her and she became scared and foolishly tried to somehow get him inside her ability's range. She was still quite confident in her ability.
But when her ability did not work on him and she felt even closer to him, she started to cry and fell asleep after feeling this person's comfortable warmth. And now they were in the current situation.
After hearing all that Rein looked at Mona with eyes overflowing with affection and said -
"My name is Rein and I'm from the Hart village."
