Anna Ynal had been a renowned cultivator from the Yadras race that reigned several planets while it had even been able to establish a small empire on the universe's planet
This was something she was proud of, and it had only been possible because of their ancestor's magnificent achievements.
However, now that she had been killed, reincarnated in a child's body of a race that looked similar to the Yadras race, Anna's dream to become someone her race can be proud of had shattered!
Anna was not even sure how she could reincarnate, and neither did she know what exactly the young man was saying to her.
It was also a mystery to her, where they were, how much time had passed since she had been killed, or what exactly was going on.
The only clues she had were some of her old memories, useless memories of a one-year-old child, and the young man in front of her.
Having a stigma indicated that he belonged to a different race than the relatives of the one-year-old child!
Yet, everything was much more complicated than she thought, and Anna did try to absorb mana, only to notice that she was not even able to sense it yet!
'The mana here should be extremely scarce….'
While Anna Ynal was occupied with sorting her thoughts, Jason could only see that the baby girl was instinctively stroking Artemis' feathers while they were flying around.
It was not long before Jason had brought the baby girl to one of the camps that were constructed outside the city.
He picked up the girl, and carefully handed her to the nurses and other staff that had already escaped the flood, helping out wherever they could.

'Maybe...mankind is worth being saved? Is that what you two wanted me to see...Shane...Dalia?'
Jason smiled despite feeling melancholic, and it was only when he saw that the baby girl began to cry as she helplessly tried to reach him with her tiny arms that he was drawn out of his train of thoughts.
He shook his head before he said
"I'll be back soon. Please take good care of that girl. She already lost her family, physical pain is what she needs the least."
After that, he shot into the air again before he returned to Kadran's center, where most people required help.
Many humans were helping out, and Jason could even see a few Ariyor helping out, which caused Jason's heart to make a leap.
Even if nobody demanded their help, they simply did so.
The Ariyor race had only been supporting the Shiabi clan because of the curse cleansing beast, and Jason couldn't help but feel that their reasoning had changed a little bit after being with mankind during the entire Great Argos war.
This was great, but rather than focusing on the Ariyor race's help to rescue Kadran's citizens, Jason thought about the baby girl and the weird way she had behaved.
At the same time, the two different mana fluctuations that had already merged into one were suspicious too.
It was as if she was not a one-year-old baby, but how did that make sense any sense?
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Hours passed and with the help of tens of thousands of helpers, the majority of citizens had been brought outside the dangerous areas or the capital if they were heavily injured and in dire need of help.
During these hours, Jason had made up several possibilities about the baby girl's weird behavior, but one was absurder than another.
In the end, there was no way that the majority of them were true either!
From traveling back in time to being born with two souls imprisoned into one body, Jason thought of almost everything, and he couldn't get his hand on it.
If she didn't have two mana fluctuations at that time, he wouldn't have bothered about her, but one of the mana fluctuations had traces of something mythical, and extremely old. As if it were the last remains of something mighty!
Jason would have loved to ignore the baby girl and leave because he had more than enough things to pay attention to, but he was unable to do so.
Even if one of his absurd theories were to be true, it was a fact that the baby had lost her parents and that she was alone in a world that was as dangerous as it had ever been.
He assumed that Argos was more dangerous than for those below the Lique stage than it had ever been. Even more dangerous than it had been during the mana outbreak!
There were many things Jason wanted to take care of, but the baby girl had jumped into his list of priorities without him realizing it.
He was just too intrigued by what his mana eyes had perceived.
Thus, after the rescue works were done, he returned to the camp where he had left the young baby girl.
From far away, he could already hear a baby crying. Owing to his mana eyes, he appeared in front of the little girl within a matter of seconds.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})Meanwhile, Artemis, who was jealous which she was clearly showing, had turned into her small form to squeeze on Jason's broad shoulder.
However, when she and the baby girls locked eyes, Artemis could tell that something was off.
She transmitted Jason her confusion and everything else she was perceiving.
Unfortunately, he was as clueless about the girl as Artemis was.
Thus he could only look at the small girl that had stopped crying.
She lifted her tiny arms and pointed towards Jason, who stood behind the nurses that had given their utmost efforts to figure out the baby's issue.
They turned around, only to see a young man with handsome, but also gorgeous facial features, beautiful eyes, and a toned body standing there.
He smiled lightly before asking
"Can I?"
The nurses were speechless by Jason's appearance and the charismatic and relaxing aura he subconsciously released. As such, they could barely nod their head without knowing what Jason wanted to do.
Seeing that it was fine, Jason took a few steps forward before he stood right in front of the table on which the baby girl was lying.
She was still pointing towards him, but her fingers had moved a little bit, while her tears had ceased.
Jason noticed that she was staring at his eyes, or rather his right eye, only to realize a moment later that the baby girl pointed at his stigma!
He lifted her up in a careful manner, and the nurses that had been starstruck regained their senses as they approached him and the baby.
'She cried for several hours and stopped right after the young man came back??' The young nurse that had taken the baby from Jason a few hours early, thought in confusion.
She felt that Jason had a calming aura, but it was still a wonder that the baby girl had suddenly stopped crying.
Rather than that, the baby girl was suddenly laughing out as Jason had lifted her in his right arm.
She was on the height of his neck and still pointing at something and Jason, intrigued by her persistency, lowered his head, allowing the baby girl to touch his stigma.
Suddenly, Jason's head began to ache as his stigma's glow intensified, enveloping the small girl's head.
Only a moment later the glow dispersed, releasing the young baby that was astonished, but also overjoyed about the beauty it could see as Jason's headache was substituted by astonishment and shock.
He tried to digest the sudden memories and picture streaming into his head as Anna Ynal exclaimed inwardly.
'He really belongs to one of the more powerful races!'
However, before she could continue thinking about that, her mind was overwhelmed by the thoughts of the one-year-old child that had fully merged with Anna.
'How is it possible that I'm too weak to take full control over the body of a formerly dead baby? Is that the disadvantage of my reincarnating? That I'm forced to merge with this useless child?'
Anna was annoyed, but how could she have known that her transmigration with all memories intact was nothing but a fluke. It was not a common reincarnation but the transmigration of a soul that had been shattered into millions of pieces at that!
Only one, minuscule part of Anna's soul had survived, and nobody was able to tell how it had reached Argos, let alone it's way to the baby Jason saved!
Suddenly, Jason, who was still trying to digest all information mumbled something incomprehensible for the nurses, and it was only the small baby that screamed out in joy
"Have you reincarnated?... Or was it an transmigration??"
