Reincarnation
Pov Dia,
The victory was quite easy; we came out mostly unscathed except for a few small cuts.
I approached Jeanne, who was badly injured with a wound on her left side.
Dia: "I give you a choice now that the war is over. Either you live for a few more hours, and I ensure your injuries are fatal, or I kill you now."
Jeanne: "My mission is complete, and I would rather die now before any regrets appear in my mind."
Dia: "As you wish."
I created a tanto with my POD and drew it from its sheath.
Jeanne: "Was the sheath necessary?"
Dia: "No, but it is more symbolic to take it out of a sheath. This weapon has a rune of death that will grant you death even if you do not die immediately after the tanto is in your body. In this case, you will feel no more pain; it will be like diving into an eternal sleep."
I approached, ready to plunge the tanto at any time.
Dia: "Under our contract, I will take your wealth, your name, and your life. I hope to see you again in your next life."
I plunged the tanto into her belly. It took 2 seconds before her eyes lost their glow. She was officially dead.
And so my name is now Dia Eucus Gremory.
Many, many years later...
Pov Jeanne
Where am I? I feel good; I have the impression of floating in the void.
Let’s remember the basics: I’m Jeanne Eeeeeeeeeee, Jea, J...
What the fuck is my name again?
Shit, now I’m starting to get cold and no longer in the nice place. It makes me feel discomfort. Help me.
Pov General
In a room, you could feel an ultra-powerful aura raging.
The aura was so cold that ice began to cover the room.
A person with crimson hair approached the source of the aura, which surprisingly was a baby. When she reached it, she put on a bracelet marked with runes. As soon as it was put on the baby’s wrist, the aura calmed down.
Dia: "We’ve averted the catastrophe."
Sera: "The coin is half-frozen anyway, Dia-chan."
Dia: "I was talking about the danger that would have affected his body."
Rimuru: "You’ve known her for 500 years, Sera-sama, and yet you still can’t guess her intentions."
Sera: "But it’s still hard; Dia-chan doesn’t give enough clues about what she is talking about. Besides, I’m too tired to think."
Indeed, Sera could barely stay awake after all that had happened before.
Rimuru: "Even if that were the case, you should more or less know what Dia-sama was talking about."
Dia: "Turn the sound down; she just fell asleep."
Dia held the baby in such a gentle and protective manner that it seemed like the first person who came up to her and she didn’t approve of would be killed.
Dia: "Welcome to us, Bridget Jeanne Eucus Leviathan."
Sera: "Why call her Jeanne as a second name?"
Dia: "Just because I wanted to, plus it wouldn’t hurt to have a child who bears the names of Jeanne and Eucus. Now, Bridget-chan, you’ll rest well, and then I’ll introduce you to your sisters. Then it’s the rest of your big family."
She spoke in such a calm and reassuring manner that it did not seem like Dia.
Rimuru: "Do you need help to place the seals that will regulate her power?"
Dia: "It would not be a problem. With you, I know there will be no issues with assistance."
@[{:" Dia-sama, there is Inglis-sama who would like to see the young ojou-sama."
A black shadow appeared and took the form of a man with an adoring look.
Dia:" Tells her that she is sleeping and so it would be more interesting for her to see her later."
@[{:" As you wish, Dia-sama."
And he left as fast as he came.
