It was only a re advancent from Level 5 to Level 6.
Naturally, there would not be any earth-shattering changes beyond that.
When his Warrior class had leveled up, Haruto Akagi had suddenly appeared.
That had truly been sothing Rei had never expected.
But now, with the Death Priest advancing, Ansu was already lying dormant.
Naturally, no one else would suddenly jump out to interfere with him again.
Ever since returning, Rei had kept Unsolvable Mystery in a half-open state.
If soone deliberately tried to search for him, they would be unable to find him.
But if they happened upon him by pure chance—
Without specifically targeting him—
Unsolvable Mystery would not repel them.
...
Death Priest — Level 6
Black and white winds descended from the heavens, enveloping Rei’s entire body.
Talent Mastered — God-Tier: Reforge Samsara >> God-Tier: Reforge Samsara
When he saw the talent he had obtained, the corner of Rei’s mouth twitched slightly.
Again...
A God-Tier talent evolving into another God-Tier talent.
His chances of obtaining God-Tier talents were truly absurd.
Even adding together all of his class levels, he had yet to reach Level 50.
And yet he had already obtained two God-Tier talents.
Under normal circumstances, across an entire sea region, only a handful of people might ever be born with a God-Tier talent.
And the population of a single sea region was unimaginably vast.
"I don’t know whether to call this good luck or bad luck."
He muttered inwardly, but his mood remained perfectly calm.
Allows the user to view any person’s previous incarnations or locate their next life. Can directly awaken all mories from every past life and imdiately obtain the class level from one chosen incarnation.
This talent persists through the user’s own reincarnation. The user can gain all class levels from every previous life and retain every talent previously acquired.
If the user possesses a reincarnation inheritance, they may completely reconstruct the body from their previous incarnation and transform it into a second body of their own.
"Reforge Samsara."
It could awaken the mories of any person’s past lives.
Wasn’t that equivalent to granting everyone a reincarnation inheritance?
No.
It was even stronger.
Because Reforge Samsara also allowed the target to inherit the class level of a previous life...
Rei cast his gaze casually beyond the manor, toward the people within the city.
The city had already erupted into song and celebration.
Bards were thriving in the streets, singing, dancing, and playing their instrunts in jubilant revelry.
The joy of surviving a catastrophe was worth celebrating.
Rei looked at one bard who was beating a drum.
With a single glance, he saw through all of the man’s past lives.
"He actually has that many incarnations."
This person had lived a total of 305 lives.
In his most recent previous life, he had been a Warrior.
Thirty-six years ago, while exploring the Sylvanheart Great Forest, he had encountered a Fourth Rank King-class monster as a Level 3 Warrior and been swallowed whole.
In the life before that, seventy-eight years ago, he had been a Level 5 Archer who died peacefully of old age.
Three hundred and fifty years ago, he had been a Level 5 Warrior.
Six hundred and ninety-six years ago, he had been a Level 6 Archer.
...
There was a clear pattern.
Most of his incarnations were either Warriors or Archers.
Though not every life followed that pattern absolutely.
Occasionally, he had reincarnated as a Mage, Assassin, Cultivator, Observer, Gatherer, and other classes.
"So reincarnation carries this kind of connection..."
"Does that an a person continues to be influenced by certain hidden tendencies, even after being reborn?"
As Rei pondered, he suddenly noticed one particularly special incarnation.
"Oh, this one."
In that life, the man had been a Level 7 Archer.
That was the highest level he had ever reached across more than three hundred lifetis.
Several hundred lives sounded like a great many.
But becoming a high-level class-advancer was unimaginably difficult.
The people Rei interacted with now were all Level 6 or higher.
Anyone weaker was almost like air to him—so insignificant that they barely registered.
But in truth, a Level 6 class-advancer might appear only a few tis among nations with populations in the tens of billions.
The reason there were so many high-level class-advancers in the Land of the Moon was simple.
Most low-level class-advancers had died during their flight.
Those who managed to reach the Land of the Moon all possessed at least so ability to protect themselves.
"Then I’ll choose this life."
Rei extended a finger and lightly pointed through the air.
Ding!
Far away, the bard who had been singing froze abruptly.
A mont later, he dropped into a crouch.
Grabbing his head in agony, he cried out.
"Ah..."
"AAAAAH! AAAAAAAAHHHHH—!"
A flood of mories poured into his mind.
What awakened was not rely mory, but all the joys and sorrows he had experienced in that previous life.
Thud!
In full view of everyone, he fell to his knees.
Tears stread uncontrollably down his face.
The love and hatred he had once experienced.
His obsessions and madness.
The entanglents and regrets of an entire lifeti.
All of it awakened once more, as though he were reliving that life firsthand.
The people in the street were stunned.
They stared at the suddenly afflicted bard in fear, with no idea what had happened.
They had only just recovered from the monster invasion.
They had barely begun to enjoy a fleeting mont of happiness.
And now soone had suddenly collapsed in apparent madness.
Who knew what was happening?
Had so unknown horror invaded them again?
"What’s wrong, friend?!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several streaks of green light descended rapidly.
High-level Healers quickly arrived at the bard’s location.
They examined him at a glance.
But they found nothing abnormal.
At least physically, he was perfectly healthy.
No disease.
No curse.
No harmful presence.
He was simply crying.
Staring at the ground with a distant, dreamlike expression.
"I... I’m fine."
He rose to his feet.
Looking around, he felt as though he had awakened in another world.
"Why did I suddenly rember all of that?"
His face was full of confusion.
Yet in his hand, a luminous bow gradually began to take shape.
As a Bard, he did not possess a suitable bow of his own.
But as a Level 7 Archer, even without a physical weapon, he could temporarily manifest one.
"It’s real..."
Class abilities did not lie.
If you possessed them, you possessed them.
After only the slightest test, he knew he had truly regained the class level of a Level 7 Archer.
"Condense Qi into a Bow..."
"Holy crap, Midor! Isn’t that a technique only Level 6 Archers can use?!"
The once-cheerful bard’s voice had beco steady and composed.
He looked at the companion who had been worrying about him only monts earlier.
"Yes... I don’t know what happened. A huge number of mories suddenly appeared in my mind. mories so vivid that it felt like I had personally lived through them."
"I don’t fully understand the situation, but I know those mories belonged to one of my previous lives."
"And what I gained doesn’t seem to be limited to mories."
"Right now... I think I’m a Level 7 Archer."
As he spoke, he drew back the longbow.
Countless streams of light gathered upon the bowstring.
Seventh Rank Archery Skill — Starburst Convergence
Whoosh!
The string released.
A brilliant arrow pierced the sky!
It carved a long, perfectly straight streak of light through the heavens.
Upon reaching its highest point, it exploded violently!
A radiant miniature sun blood overhead.
This was unmistakably a Seventh Rank Archer skill.
A Level 4 Bard should have been utterly incapable of using such an ability.
