Alex continued watching the vision of several different fights between the demons and humans. Some characters and villains were known from the
book whereas some were new with quite terrifying abilities.
He also noticed that there were not only demons that were in the chaos. There were several figures that he couldn't understand what were they. However from the memories he had gotten from Ray. He recognised them. (The Dusks Eclipse). It is an organisation of some eccentric people (humans and other races included) who experiments on people. They tried to merge monster parts and genes to people to gain powers.
This confirmed that there are not only demons that had to be taken care of.
"Do you know why you have to watch these terrifying visions when you have just arrived in this world.?" questioned Ray with a small smile
"I think, i know" answered Alex as he watched the remnants vision without looking back at Ray.
"Oh! then please do tell " said Ray raising an eyebrow, looking intrigued from my Alex answer
"I think it was to give me a reality check. What will happen if my approach and thinking will be the same as it was on earth."
"This world where killing someone is just a small thing, if i followed my usual earth logic and rational, i will die before i know it"
"Hehe, nice nice, i like you know" said Ray grinning
"Well, looks like it's time for goodbye, huh"
As the visions came to an end Ray stood up. His body started glowing with an ethereal white glow. As the glow brightened his form began to wither in tiny motes of white light.
"Do you have any last wish or something like that?" asked Alex as he watched him withering. Even though he doesn't have any choice in taking his body and doesn't have any guilt left after this meeting to him, it still felt right to atleast listen to his last wish.
"Last wish huh,.. i have " said Ray
"What is it? If it's within my power i will try my best to fulfill." said Alex with sincerity laced in his voice.
"My family, you see in three lives, no not three even in these 15 year's of the fourth one. I was the worst son there could be. In one life there i left the house leaving them, in another i ran and left my sister alone to die. You have seen in those visions and memories now i gave you so you know how was i right."
'Oh look at you looking like you care now, bloody coward. I had seen in those memories and even felt the emotions you had at those times. The only thought you had at that time was just to save yourself.' mused Alex inwardly in pure disdain towards him.
"If possible, please take my place and became a better son and brother for them. I know what i am asking is absurd. I had seen how much you love your own family but you also know that now they are gone and will never come back. So please became Ray CrownHeart instead of Alex and take care of them" Ray finished saying as half of his body was withered.
Ray's blunt words about his family never coming back hit him like a wave. In an instant intense anger flared within him, However, somewhere in the corner of his heart. He knew that Ray was telling the truth. They are gone and will never come back.
"You don't have to think about them being strangers. You are Ray now they are your family. You don't have to tell them about your transmigration. It will just create a rift in the relationship. So please save them and be their son This is my last wish"
" _ "
Alex remained silent for sometime he doesn't know how to respond but after some thinking and coming to an conclusion. He answered
" I can't guarantee you anything but ...i will try my best to protect them from any danger "
"Thank you, my inheritor and yeah try to find the four others. Remember only i had regressed three times. This will be there's first time. If possible try to get them on your side. They will be of big help to you " said Ray with a smile as his whole form spread in the air withering.

Celestia watched her brother laying on the bed. His breath calm. Multiple signs of exhaustion can be seen on his face. He had told her that he was training. However for her it was still hard to believe.
She had watched him grow from his childhood. Her brother always looked like he was tired and afraid. As if he had given up on everything. He never trained and always had a gloomy aura around him. Like he was just waiting for the inevitable to come.
However, when she looked at her, when she came first. She instantly noticed the change in his eyes. They were full of life and determination. Yeah, he looked distant but it was always like that so she didn't think anything about it.
There were some more shocking things. Her brother had broken through E rank. He had three affinities and he held his own against Kevin Emerson and had a draw. When see first listened that her mouth opened in an 'o' shape. She was in disbelief.
As a student council president. She had a lot of work to do with her study and training included. She didn't even have enough time to watch even on of her brother's match. That's why she can't check on him for the whole week. However
She was happy for her brother. After all this time he had finally decided to change. A good change at that. Everyone in the family were genuinely concerned about him. The world is cruel. They will not be always there to protect him. He had to be strong for his survival.
" After all this time you had finally come to your senses huh, "
Spoke Celestia as she closed the door and left him alone for reasting.
