Rei, a man wrongfully imprisoned and executed in his past life, is reincarnated as a newborn in a humble farming family. However, his memories remain intact, burdening him with deep-seated trauma, distrust, and an overwhelming desire to never be powerless again. Unlike others in his new world, Rei possesses no magical abilities. Instead, he discovers Spirit Arts, an ancient discipline that harnesses Qi and the forces of nature. Through rigorous self-training and an analytical approach using physics-based wind manipulation, he forges a unique path to power. Yet, Rei's journey is not just one of strength, but of internal conflict. His mother, Lily, offers unconditional love, yet he instinctively fears and avoids her. His sister, Hanna, tries desperately to earn his approval, but he coldly rejects her. The only person he trusts is his father, Thomas, whose training unknowingly pushes Rei toward becoming something beyond human understanding. As he grows, Rei must navigate the tensions within his family, the mystery of his past, and the limits of his own abilities. But with each step forward, one question remains: Is this reincarnation a gift, a curse, or an unfinished story waiting for its conclusion? This novel blends psychological depth, tactical combat, and a slow-burning character-driven narrative, offering a fresh take on reincarnation, power, and the struggle for identity in a second life.
