Chapter 1: Not again!
"Kill them all!"
The content of the command didn't match the angelic voice, but Lee's only thought was 'Not again!'.
From the moment the dozen youths arrived it Pine Village he had a premonition that something disastrous was about to happen, or rather – he was absolutely certain, because they were people from the Cloud kingdom – the same bastards who killed him in his previous life.
Of course, last time it had been the royal cavalry and not this particular bunch, but the price Lee had to pay was too steep, especially since he realized that the already brief moment he could see Lisa before his reincarnation had become significantly shorter.
It was his father, the current one, who reacted first. Just when the moron whom everyone called Drevin grabbed Annie's tit, father began to pull mother away. Lee, being only a couple of months old, was lying in her arms, and right when all hell broke loose, she pressed him so close that he had hard time breathing, to not mention seeing anything.
Lee felt his mother started to run, heard screams of agony behind them and then her shouting his father's name. But they didn't get far, despite father's futile attempts to protect them – he was a simple hunter, after all, and had no chance against these superhumans.
Indeed, the last thing Lee saw was a flame pillar resembling a phoenix blooming in the middle of the crowd, confirming his suspicions – some of the youths from the Cloud Kingdom were similar to the strongest soldiers in their royal cavalry and wielded superhuman power.
Unfortunately, unlike in the previous life when Lee as a teenager managed to kill a few of them, this time there was nothing he could do – he couldn't even crawl yet, let alone punch or kick anyone.
Of course, he had learned about the superhumans long before that. In what Lee referred to as his first life, he and Lisa met some men much stronger than these. Back then it was a huge shock at first, but theydied to the advanced twentieth century weaponry nevertheless.
