Yulan: Although most will consider as stupid and idiotic... after all, which sane person will give their all for another.

Yulan: But I know in my heart, if you jump into a fiery pit, then I shall follow you.

Neo: Umm...

Neo: Hey, wifey, if you say such words, even I can’t help but blush.

Neo: In comparison to your love, mine seems quite cheap.

Yulan: Hump!, So learn to cherish me.

Neo: Yes, if I don’t cherish you the who will.

Yulan: Hmm~

Neo: Though I have a fact about myself that I want to share.

Yulan: A fact that I don’t know?

Neo: Yes, perhaps no one knows this fact except me.

Yulan: Hmm~

Yulan: I wonder what you are hiding from your wife. A mistress, perhaps.

Neo: Well, it would have been better if it were so simple.

Yulan: Oh, so keeping a mistress for you is a simple matter. Don’t forget that I own your first time.

Neo: Yes, yes, my lady..

On the other side of the world, Neo looked at the chat with a smile on his face. Lily, who was next to him, noticed it but didn’t say anything/

Having been together with Neo for so long, she knew that his heart loved someone. She knew that that person occupied a more important place in his heart than Stella, her and Vesta.

Although she is jealous, she is also born for her lord. His happiness is her happiness and if he loves someone then it is her responsibility to make sure that her lords gets what he wishes for.

Neo didn’t notice the thoughts in Lily’s heart as he looked out of the window. He saw the brightly lit houses as those beastmen, humans, elves, and dwarves that followed him were living their lives.

Since Vista had created those golems, these races were of no use to him, a waste to be in fact. If he killed them all and used them as a resource, he would be able to create even more golems with Vista’s help.

That would be the best move he could make, a way for him to strengthen his forces. His past self, the self that hadn’t met Yulan, may have made such a decision.

But his current self, his self whose broken heart was filled with the flames of love, couldn’t bring himself to do such a thing.

Even if they were useless to him most of the time, they still served him; they still considered him their lord.

This world isn’t a game and these people aren’t npc’s who exist for his use. They all have life, they have their family.

They are as much of a living being as he is. He doesn’t consider himself a saint, nor does he consider himself as a devil.

The good and evil in his heart can change per the situation. This is his second life, his heart was broken in his first life.

What remained were just broken fragments, a shell that should have never been able to hold anything.

But that broken shell was forced, forced to hold the deep love that came from Yulan. The deep love of Stella, Lily, and Vesta.

He can never become the man he was in his last life, nor can he become what he was in his younger days.

He has changed, changed by time, his life has been influenced by Yulan, guided by Stella, embraced by Lily, and forged by Vesta.

In his broken heart, in a short time, they all have been able to carve their place, although some may occupy more than others for him, all of them are precious.

He who promised never to trust someone has broken his own promise. He has given his fragile heart to others.

And if they break it once more, then he shall never exist; the day when he is betrayed again is the day that Neo shall die.

But he wishes for such a day to never come, he believes that such a day will never come, and he believes in those who were able to carve themselves into his heart.

"My Lovely lord, what bothers your heart~"

Lily’s soft and charming voice reached his ears as he was embraced from the back, falling into her gentle embrace, he looked at her face.

He looked at her eyes, those eyes contained worry for him, those eyes contained the deep love Lily had for him.

These Valkyries were born for him, and their love could be said to be the purest.

"Nothing.."

"What troubled me has been solved."

Neo muttered as he gently rubbed Lily’s face. he gave her a fleeting kiss on her lips as all the turmoil in his heart vanished.

He looked at the chat, Yulan was waiting for him. He was going to share his greatest secret today. The secret about his reincarnation, she has shown him her everything and now it’s time to return the favor.

As for the chance that it will have some negative effect on him, or their relationship.. He fears that this may create a rift between them, but he choose to trust Yulan.

He chose to trust in the love they shared, and finally free himself of this shackel that has bound him for his entire life.

Neo: Yulan, I am a ...

...

Years ago....

In the home planet of the Human Alliance, in one of the poorer districts consisting mostly of orphanages and small shops, a boy opened his eyes.

He woke up from his bed and looked at all the children sleeping in this shared room. All of them were orphans, some whose parents died in the war of lords and some who don’t even no their parents as they were thrown in the streets before they could even form a sense of memory.

He was one of those second cases, a child whose parents dumped him the day he was born.

His hair was a bit messy as he had just woken up, and he couldn’t be said to be plump, but he also wasn’t all skin and bones.

Although there was still room for growth, his physique could be considered to be that of an average boy of a middle-class family.

After all, the orphanage is run by the government of the Human Alliance, and all these children could be said to be the future warriors of humanity.

The boy looked quite young, perhaps not even having reached the age of five. But there was one thing that seemed out of place.

His eyes, his eyes that contained coldness, a coldness that can only be formed when one is betrayed by the entire world.

He didn’t have the innocence of a child but the calculating mind of a businessman. This wasn’t his first life...

This boy was Neo.

After waking up, the boy slowly rose from the bed, making sure that he didn’t disturb anyone. Getting out of bed, he quickly washed himself as he went out for a morning jog.

The sun hadn’t even properly risen, so all the shops were closed currently. The roads where empty can contained a eerie quietness.

But this didn’t frighten him as he continued on his journey, reaching the empty park, he took out the hologram device.

Opening a sword teaching video, he set up the hologram. Picking up one of the wooden swords placed in the park he started his practice.

Just like that, two hours passed as he put down his sword, now soaked in sweat, and he looked at the sun that was rising.

Putting down the sword and picking up the hologram device, he returned toward the orphanage.

The shops in the area were about to open as people could be seen walking on the road. Reaching the orphanage, he took a bath and changed his clothes.

Taking the already prepared breakfast, he started to quickly gobble it down in silence. The caretaker looked at the lonely boy but didn’t say anything.

She was already used to it; he had never tried to make friends and had always given a cold shoulder to all those who tried to get close to him.

All the children also don’t like him due to his eyes, even her, when looking at those cold, abyss-like eyes, couldn’t help but shudder with fear.

Thus, knowingly or unknowingly, she has also created a barrier between them. Neo also noticed it, but he didn’t have any will or desire to care for it.

He doesn’t want to build any bonds or make friends. His heart can never bear those words. For him, now there are only chess pieces.

He will use those useful to him and throw away those that have lost their value. In this world of Lords, he will throw away what’s left of his humanity.
