During these 500 years of slumber, the human race of this Earth 190 years ago nearly got extinct and were forced out to the vast space to revolve around Earth after being defeated by the alliance of the "foreigns" which all led to the fall of many established powerhouses. In addition, the "foreigns" got even stronger with many of them becoming demigods awhile the human race of this Earth only has 3 demigods which now includes Reide.
Currently these "foreign" demigods are all alerted due to the seemingly small ruckus Reide has made. Demigods of all races and even complete divinities (also known as gods) all sensed the anomaly of Reide's waking up.

After flying (or rather flashing)west for 2 seconds, Reide before arriving in any dry land caught sight of some unusual underwater structurs. Stopping to inspect he discovered himself above of what once seemed to be the ruins of a coastal city or rather a coastal fortress flooded with sea water with the buildings overgrown with corals and seaweeds.
Looking at this ruins Reide's heart is filled with anxiety after all there's a feeling of familiarity exuded by this ancient city just like the sense of belonging when arriving home from work. While slowly floating towards the center of this ancient city, Reide looked around looking for anything that might give him a clue about this city of ruins.
But upon arrival at the city center, he saw a diamond statue lying on the seabed.Compared to the surrounding buildings, this diamond statue only has the height of 15 meters while the surrounding buildings are 20 to more than 200 meters of height. Still this statue seemed to be more gigantic than these buildings with it's lifelike crystal features.
Although awe-inspiring, the statue instead made Reide's heart drop. After all this statue meant that this ruins was "fortress number 6". His once so called home.
Indeed it was already over 500 years, yet Reide still have hopes that this fort will still stand. However looking down at the once familiar roads, skyscrapers, and at the diamond statue, which were all In ruins. Reide's eyes was filled with sadness and reminiscence and just stared at the ruins of what was left of this so called "city" that he once lived in.
A city he has protected from all "calamities". Now, only flooded ruins are left. The once coastal fort, now in the middle of the ocean has become desolate lacking the once bustling noise it had.
Floating above the water, Reide descended slowly and with a chant a gigantic circle that looked like a hole to the abyss was formed spanning hundreds of kilometers. Inside this circle, the water as if being flushed down the drain disappeared in just a few breaths, even the residual moisture inside was evaporated to thin air. The once flooded city, now dry nearly looked like how it was when Reide still lives here.
With a blank face, Reide continued to a certain area of the city.
Arriving in front of a ruined mansion, his once blank look disappeared and replaced by extreme grief with the surging of memories in his mind, his eyes filled with tears, his voice a bit broken while murmuring;
"I'm home...dad I'm home...mom I'm home... little Reo, Ike, John, everyone.... I'm back"
He stayed there kneeling on the ground letting all of his emotions and all of his regrets out. Everything around Reide in this very moment seemed to have felt all his emotions. The once dancing waves and restless wind, now very still and calm like someone staying silent for someone to vent his grievances. The once blinding lights of the two suns dimmed as if afraid to disturb his grieving.
Yet he was still disturbed by some extremely terrifying aura coming from all directions which causes him to stand up and regain his composure before trying to extend his senses.
Since becoming a demigod, Reide's senses became very unfamiliar as if he could sense the whole world. And at this moment he could clearly sense several terrifying entities heading towards his location. He could sense a few flying with speed like meteors streaking down from the heavens, some are swimming underwater which are a lot faster than those ancient propellers, and Reide could even vividly sense the slight tremors of the ground beneath him growing stronger in every second like something is drilling out from the center of the "Earth".
These existences are all clearly not inferior to him. Especially the one coming from beneath the "Earth" and the one flying from the southern direction which Reide could feel that two are already superior than him in the suppression caused by their aura.
'All in all, I could sense six of these entities, whether there are more I don't care as long as I could find out what happened to here'
"Let's see how many of them I could kill today"
Reide knew he's no match to these group of demigods, still he remained there unmoving and determined with a bit of anticipation even. But even if he tried to escape now, it is all too late as he could already sense that he is surrounded from all directions so he could only "stand there waiting" (are you an idiot! Who would stand in place waiting for death?! Of course he prepared his signature AOE spells! After all he is the god of AOE! Right?)
He didn't wait even a minute long cause without warning several simultaneous attacks came his way: suddenly a rain of wind spells aimed for his head; some from the right and some from the back both attacks forming walls of swift wind spells forcing Reide to dodge a few steps forward to the left in less than a blink of an eye.
'go****n it!'
Reide is cursing at this moment cause as if in sync with the first wave of spells, several water attack spells came from the surrounding water around Reide; some from the front and some from the left. Reide at this moment is cornered in both behind and at his right sides with a rain of terrifying water spells coming up front and at his left. Also there seemed to be something coming from underground and above Reide. He has nowhere to run.
