Chapter 80: Ch 80: Rein's Lives (1)

One day when young Rein was hunting some wild beasts in a remote forest, he suddenly came across this dungeon. Rein had already visited a few dungeons but none of them were like this one.

Normally when a person was standing in front of a dungeon entrance, they would be able to immediately guess that this place was a dungeon just by feeling the aura around it. But this dungeon was not giving off any kind of aura even though Rein was standing right in front of it.

The only reason Rein was able to identify the black vortex in front of him as a dungeon entrance was because of his Eye of Truth. Without it he would never have guessed this portal to be a dungeon entrance.

That was mostly because it was common sense that when a person encountered a dungeon they would feel it immediately. As that common sense was not working here so only someone like Rein with an overpowering investigation ability would be able to judge this place to be a dungeon.

After thinking about it a little and investigating this portal he was able to find out the chances of his dying inside was not very high. So he decided to enter the dungeon right away.

Just as he stepped foot inside the portal a piece of information appeared inside his mind that explained him about the function of this dungeon. Then before he could contemplate about this information, he lost his consciousness.

...

A cry of a baby was heard. A blue haired woman picked up a little boy with red hair and kissed his forehead. At her side another red haired man was looking at both of them with kind eyes.

That person was a viscount of a powerful nation and the Child who was born was none other than Rein. But currently he had lost all his previous memory. But one thing was still within him and that was his core nature as that was something very hard to restrict.

Rein was born within a big rich and powerful family. He also had a kind father and mother, so his life could be said to be perfect. He also turned out to be quite talented with the dual magic affinity of fire and water. All in all Rein was living a blessed life.

Just like the other nobles, he went to an academy made for the nobility to study. Soon he also got engaged to a count's daughter according to his father's wishes. Then soon it was high time for him to start ruling the domain his family was controlling.

This was the time when Rein felt conflicted for the first time in this life. If he really became the lord of this domain his life would be bounded in this small domain.

Rein did not feel good about this but he was also unwilling to disregard his father's wishes who had taken care of him throughout all these years.

For that reason Rein decided to suppress his inner conflict and took up the role of a domain lord.

That was Rein's first life in this dungeon and before he was able to digest the massive amount of memory he lost his consciousness once again. He was probably going to start his second life soon.

It was a calm area where grassland could be seen everywhere for miles upon miles. There was a small hamlet in that grassland. In this hamlet, the people living here were all depended on domestic animals for their livelihood.

One of the families in this hamlet was giving birth to a boy today. Arrival of new blood was always a good thing so the whole village was celebrating it.

The boy who was born had blonde hair and green eyes. He was a very cute child and the whole village wholeheartedly welcomed him. This boy was none other than Rein living his second life in a dungeon.

He grew up in peaceful countryside without any danger and in a very comfortable position. But still for some reason, he always felt like he needed to grow stronger and stronger. So even as a child Rein spent quite some time watching the guards' training.

He had a childhood sweetheart and they got married when Rein grew up. He had already become the leader of this hamlet's guard force and even after that he did not stop training.

When Rein was 21 years old, suddenly a group of bandits attacked this village. Normally it would be impossible for a small hamlet like this to withstand an attack of that scale but Rien was just too strong. He had a double affinity for wind and water magic and that made him extremely overpowered.

These few bandits were not a big deal for him.

But life in the small hamlet suddenly changed when a dungeon appeared nearby. Adventurers started to come to the village and the peaceful village was not peaceful anymore.

Adventurers were a troublesome bunch and they started to immediately create problems for this peaceful place. They were acting free here as that believed in their strength and who in this god forsaken place would be able to stop them.

But Rein was there. He not only stopped them but actually beat them all up. Soon more and more people arrived here and the number of people who got beaten up by Rein also increased. And a big incident happened when he finally beat up a noble's son who tried to molest a girl.

Rein fought everyone who came after him and as he was strong enough, he kept on winning. Soon Rein suddenly found himself transcending the realm of a normal human and reaching a brand new height. This time he was only 34 years old when he achieved this milestone.

Soon his only daughter wished to see the wider world. So Rein decided to leave the hamlet that had already turned into a small town for the first time. The guards of this place were already strong enough after getting trained by Rein so he did not need to worry about that.

So he left the village with his wife and daughter. He did invite his parents and parents in laws to join him but they all refused and decided to spend the twilight of their years in this hamlet where they were born.
