"Ugh!" The young man fell toward the surface of the planet.
"Uh...? Oh no..." When he was at the height of the clouds the pulling force changed direction, he was pulled to the other side of the world.
'I can't see anything...' Since the speed was too fast he could barely see how the world looked.
'Uh, it... it finally slowed... Um?' After a few seconds, the pulling stopped and he finally could look around.
'Is this... a battlefield?' And seeing things like explosions while hearing the sounds of battle, he deduced the being of this place.
As his body began to descend at a slower pace than before, he tried to understand what he saw.
'Hm, isn't this too... big?' The battlefield was so huge that it easily took up more space than a medium-sized country of his old world.
'They are humanoid, but they look different...' It looked like only two races were fighting on the entire battlefield, one was using dark while the other used light energies and attacks to fight the other.
'Wow, they are strong... I want to fight them...' Seeing people cause explosions a smile appeared on the young man who was astonished and excited at the same time.
'Aidana, what race are they?'
[...]
'Uh, looks like I already can't speak with her.'
'Hm, if I have to guess...' Both of the races had slightly longer ears than humans, but now he was only looking at the dark force users.
'They have pale white skin and glowing red eyes... maybe Vampire? Aidana said that in The Realmes almost everything that ever came up as an idea exists, so I think yes, then let's see the other...' With it, he turned his gaze to the light energy users.
'Pointy ears and slightly taller height than humans... most likely Elves.' As he was pretty far from the fights he could barely take out their form.
'Let's see which race will I be reborn in...' He was expectant while he descended to one side of the battlefield where no one was fighting, and there he saw a large sycamore tree in the middle of the forest, the tree was in a transparent barrier that was in the form of a hemisphere.
Arriving in front of the barrier, he easily passed through it, and with it, he saw that the trunk of the tree had been turned into a cozy-looking house.
'What is this voice... is this a different language?' Going further, he was not far from the door when he heard a deep male voice chanting in a strange language.
'Is she in pain?' While he was dragged closer, he heard a woman's screams of pain.
"No... we-we will lose it... please stay with us..." The woman had a beautiful but tired voice.
"He's our child... he'll be a legend... we won't lose him here!" The deep-voiced man tried to support his wife while he continued chanting and using his magic.
'I don't understand anything. This will be tiresome...' Since he could only understand that the two were tired from the exhausted tone, the young man gave up on trying to decipher this new language.
'Ah, what is...?' When the young man was about to enter the door, he was blinded by a bright light, after the light went out, he opened his eyes, but he could hardly see or hear anything.
'Am I in water?'
...
"Uh... The pain... the pain is gone!?" The beautiful curvy woman staggered as she tried to sit up, she was wearing a split blue dress and she had a tiara on her head it had the appearance of three golden wavy branches holding a blue gem.
"Did we lose it?" She touched her belly anxiously, which wasn't that big indicating that she could only be around in her fourth month.
Her long silver-white hair fell in front of her face as she bent forward, at this time, the man looked up he was kneeling, exhausted from using so much energy at once.
The man was wearing a black and red suit with a vest and a white shirt beneath, on his hands, he had black leather gloves. The man's long black hair brushed the wooden floor as he looked at his wife, he was waiting for the good news, but as he saw tears fall from her eyes, his white face shadowed.
He stood up while still looking at her, as he got to the bed, he touched her shoulder and sat down next to her to embrace her. In his embrace the mother began to cry loudly, hearing it he felt his heart being torn.
'If I was just a little stronger...' He thought about how he could provide support and encouragement to his wife, while he felt shame and guilt for what he had done without her consent.
'It's so difficult to move.' At the same time, the young man tried with all his strength to move his body, and as he did...
The woman looked up from her husband's embrace, looking into his eyes she said.
"It moved...our baby just moved! His life force is coming back..." Hearing this, the man looked up with hope in his eyes.
As he looked into his wife's eyes, he saw that tears were falling, but this time it was not tears of sadness. Seeing his wife like this, he cupped her face and kissed her, they both felt a deep love for each other.
...
Time passed and weeks flew by.
As he was still too immature, he couldn't hear more than his mother's heartbeat and breathing, but at least it reassured him.
After another month he was finally able to move and he could hear his new parents talking to him from time to time, with it he noticed they weren't with each other always, he only heard his father's voice a few times a week.
'Mom, calm down your heart is racing...' Sometimes he heard his mother speak loudly to others every time feeling her stress and anger. It was like this for a month, after which the unfamiliar voices stopped, and he could only hear the voices of his mother and father.
[Notice: Mana detected.] It happened when he was around six or seven months old.
'Oh.'
[I welcome the Host to the Great World of Ananterra!]
'Ah, hi Aidana how have you been? Can you help me a little?'
Using the system's help he finally could understand what his parents talked about, with it he listened to their talk every day, and as such he learned what was going on, and why was his mother so tense all the time.
'I'll surely help when I grow up, just wait for a little.' He didn't want to think too much about it because he was too tired, most of the time he could only stay awake for a short time.
...
"My love, I have something to tell you." But as birth approached, the father couldn't bear the guilt and told his wife what he did at the time. The father's blood-red eyes directly looked into his wife's beautiful blue eyes.
"Okay? Tell me."
"... Please sit down first." Hearing her gentle voice, he hesitated.
Following his hand pointing to the bed, she sat down, and he quickly sat next to her, holding her hand, he took the courage to say what he wanted.
"I used forbidden magic on our child, at that time I called a dead soul from the Hall of Bones..." The man felt the weight lift off his shoulders so he continued.
"I tried to fuse the dead soul with the newly forming soul of our child, which couldn't withstand the pressure of our opposing natures."
"I love you, I'm ashamed I didn't ask before doing so... it's just, I... I just didn't want to see you sad."
Finishing what he had to say, the man waited for his wife to say something, seeing her face darkening a little, 'This is going to hurt...!' he prepared himself knowing her strength.
"Let me ask you. Who am I?"
"One of the smartest and most beautiful women in the world..." The man hastily tried to answer.
"So you know, then let me ask you, do you think I wouldn't notice if something happened to my child?" When she finished her sentence, she gave him a deadly serious look.
"There is a different soul in our..." Thinking she didn't understand, he tried to say it again, but as he saw that an even angrier face appeared he stopped.
"If you have a child and adopt another, will you treat them differently?" Hearing her ask this, he shook his head.
"I give birth, we raise him up, if you say he is not our child, I don't know who has a child in those thousands of worlds."
"This...I..." After hearing her explanation, he was happy that she understood his selfish act, but was also disappointed with himself.
'Mother...'
"I'm sorry I really was blind. As old as I am, I was unable to look at the bigger picture and was overwhelmed with guilt."
"I love you." Hearing this, the man looked up, feeling her hand on his face he looked into her eyes and saw her beautiful smile, his heart was filled with love.
"I love you too." The man kissed her.
'Thank you...' Hearing all this, the boy was relieved, after spending so much time together, he considered them his family, but deep inside he was afraid.
He was afraid that they wouldn't accept him, but after this, he was relieved, now he was just waiting to meet them face to face, and as such the last month passed quickly and the day of the birth arrived.
His mother gave birth naturally and with his father's help, there were no complications.
'Finally...!' The first thing he did, he tried to open his eyes, but after being in the dark for so long, his eyes couldn't handle it.
He needed a few seconds to adjust to the light, but when he eventually opened his eyes, he finally saw a man with long raven-black hair looking down at him.
'Red...' He saw the man's eyes turning bright blood red from the wine red that they were.
He was prepared for this since he already knew what his father was, but the newborn's body did not listen to him, his body was controlled mostly by instinct, and he started to cry loudly.
Seeing his newborn son, the father was overwhelmed with emotions, and with it, he showed his nature, as he became ashamed he handed the newborn to his mother.
She tried to comfort him while looking at him with deep motherly love.
'Uh, hey calm down... blue... beautiful... ' While he was trying to stop himself from crying, he looked into his mother's beautiful light blue eyes, and seeing her motherly love through them his body settled down.
At this time, the father sits next to her, he put his hand on her waist, and she rests her head on his shoulder, this was the first time the family was together, it wasn't anything great and neither was it perfect, but it was theirs and that's what really mattered.
After a long time, the mother asked her husband.
"Then, what will his name be?"
