"He died because of me, doesn't he?" Mictian asked Katya and she answered almost as if she was waiting for it to be asked
"Yes indeed, when you were performing forbidden life force transferring ritual power of ritual being too much resonated in soul link and caused Ryu's death but as I told you both are the same being, to begin with so you do not need to feel responsible"
'Do I get a say in this' Ryu frowned while putting his hand on his forehead he knew it was not intentional and that Mictian seem to have some circumstances so he did not try bothering with it more than that and turning toward Katya he asked with a questioning look
"Isn't there more things to explain? " Ryu had an idea that explanation is far from over yet. Call it otaku guts feeling or his high analytic skill Ryu was right and seeing him with a weird nostalgic, gaze Katya began speaking
"It is common sense that if someone is reincarnated, they lost their previous life memory. " she sat on the bed while continuing the speaking
"But what if there are two past lives at the same time? It is a sort of loophole by which you can carry the memory of one of your lives over to next," she was about to continue when stopped suddenly by Ryu with a hand gesture
"I want to ask despite us being divided souls and all, what is the reason behind this special service of sorts? I believe not everyone gets the chance of meeting Goddess before they reincarnate.," Looking towards him Mictian smirked and also joined in
"Yes, what is the reason behind the special service?" seeing both of them question Katya cough a bit before she spoke
"After Getting your soul fused, I want to send you into a specific world I want and it is also due to me being part of the reason why your soul split, although I cannot expand on that"
after hearing her say this Ryu think 'Soul split two normal bodies Goddess being involved...let's focus on reincarnation for now' meanwhile Mictian sat on the ground thinking
'fusion memory, I should do it' and both of them almost spoke rapidly
"How does soul fuse?" asked Mictian
"How it is decided whose memories will be carried forward?" asked Ryu
hearing them both speak rapidly make Katya give a little chuckle before she continued
"The part who decide to give up on memories should go near another one-touch him and soul resonation will begin and when that happens fuse with him and it is up to you to decide which one will retain memory also even though memory of one part will be transferred personality and few other things will become a mix of both "
this troubled Ryu he fell into thoughts 'how do I make him give up on memories, should I ask for stone paper scissors or tell him it was he who chose death so he should get a chance to retain a memory or said I would never do so willingly'
when he was wondering about this stuff suddenly, he felt an arm on his shoulder and he see Mictian who was standing far had already put his hand on his harm 'No matter what you say I won't give up or so he was going to say when he felt his soul resonate and a voice like a static went to his mind zunnnn it sounded like
"Am sorry to bring you in Death along with me" Mictian said. Ryu realized what is happening
'he is giving away his memories and fusing with me'
"It is all thanks to you. I could be what I was, I do not think any other human being could change core demon lord desires. Thank you I could meet my beloved due to you and sorry again"
'Man, I feel shitty now' Ryu think and spoke
"Do not feel sorry as Katya said. We are the same no need to say sorry to yourself"
"Am proud of it" With those last words Mictian become a bright light and envelope Ryu and it was almost blinding light so much so that Katya had to put a hand over her eyes and when the light goes away. the one standing there was standing there was neither Ryu nor Mictian but a mix of both a small tattoo on the neck a fairly muscular body with crimson eyes and Deep blue hair
"Congrats on getting United and being whole again Ryu, let's get you reincarnated right away," Katya said with a joyful, full voice
"Can you give me a second? I feel like shit right now," Ryu said and then he thought, 'he give it away so easily, and I was thinking of making him do it truly shitty. but now that we are I. I should not say it because it is also his insult now' or so he thinks to calm himself down while being stared at by Katya who for some reason looked Nostalgic and emotional 'he is whole again' she thinks to herself while staring at him and Ryu looked toward her and spoke
"Now am ready," he said at this Katya said hurriedly, "Let's get you reincarnated right away" at this Ryu made an irritated face and spoke
"What the hell!? you are sending me to another world at least give me some info" 'Seriously what is up with this hurrying up attitude'
"Well as expected," saying this goddess, sit down on the bed and point at her side asking Ryu to sit as well.
"So, what do you want to know about another world??"
Sitting beside Katya on the bed, Ryu's state of mind was deeply shaken. 'Am sitting beside a girl in a bed. She is too close' he thought and ask
"What kind of place I will be born in and some basic stuff if you may tell me,"
At this goddess nodded, coming a bit closer. Turned the tv on, What appeared on the TV was a glorious town right out of a historic, movie it seems.
Then it focused on a nice-looking mansion, then it turns into a scene of a pregnant woman who looks like milf and a smart-looking handsome person While showing this goddess began to speak
"The world's name is Pefrion, This is a town named Epnir trade town, it is one of most safe places in terms of monster attacks in the other world. The woman you see is the one who will give you birth. Her name is Lina Rivera, the man is your father Ralph Rivera he is a Viscount appointed in this town. This town has a big church. Is this enough for information now,"
After thinking a bit about content Ryu opened his mouth
"Why are you sending me to that world??, what's the purpose??"
'Yea, so far it seems like am going to get born in a safe place with a good family with no sense of crisis, like it seems too good to be true' Ryu think
Noticing the deep-thinking face of Ryu, the goddess said,
"Well rest assured if it is you, I believe you will find the purpose,"
"can you not just tell me right away??"
"No, I can't"
As if realizing something, Ryu's eyes shined and he lean towards the goddess and said,
"What about the cheat??, like it is standard in all the novels transfer is accompanied by cheat power right,"
"Uhm you aren't getting any cheat, you know those things are for people who get transferred, you are getting reincarnated, and you already have a few cheats of your own"
"Example!!?"
"Memories. Now we can't talk much you are about to be born, then bye Ryu hope to see you soon"
This time Ryu notices his body disappearing.
After Ryu disappears, in the empty room where only Katya was left, a voice was coming from the closet, and after a bit, a girl come out rolling from the closet and standing on her feet once she reached near Katya she asked her with a curious inquisitive gaze,
"Do you think this will bring back his memories?"
"I am sure about it," Katya said.
"Well, are you sure you want to follow, like why don't just see from here"
"No, I have already waited for too long. I want to be with him now and maybe it will help with returning his memories, well I hope you'll look after my worlds and duties in my absence. Am going to perform personification now."
"Man, this sucks. You guys only got my world to perform your experiments," the girl pout
"You were the one who came crying for help remember, I deserve to do this much," Katya said
"Ok ok just save me this one time. do whatever you want," the girl pleaded
"Then I am going to start" as Katya said these huge circular symbols began to float around her chains with locks of light locked themselves around her. She soon began to disappear, and before disappearing she just said,
"Look after my worlds and duties in my absence"
"I will," the girl nodded.
After Katya disappear the girl jumped on the bed and said, "things are going to get interesting now. Well, I hope they will be able to save my world, a strange pair those two,"
And she turns on the TV, Turning her face in its direction.
What appears on it is a boy born in the Epnir trade town
