Chapter 3

As I slowly began opening my eyes I was faced with two people a man and a woman with snow-white hair

'I guess that's Zues and Bell's mother, well our mother now

"BELL!" Meteria screamed her child's name while in tears

"I thought I would lose you too… hick…..hick"

her tears continued streaming down while hugging me

'I blame it all on the Compendium of Cultivation it was too much information at once it almost fried my brain I thought to myself.

"now now Meteria you don't want to suffocate the child right leave him some space to breath"

"! sorry bell I was really worried about you"

'what a kind mother, no wonder Bell was a very kind person let's make her relax a bit with a smile I know that a baby smile makes people happy, but I instantly regretted doing it.

"kyaaaaa my bell is smiling at me kyaaaa" As she said she pulled me into another hug

'well so long new life looks like I'm already gonna see you again god'

"Meteria you're killing him!!" as Zeus said that he took me from Meteria's hands

"!!my Bell NOoo, give him back Zues-sama" Meteria started screaming at Zues

"no control you're self first and here I thought you were no longer that clumsy little girl who looks like it was all an act"

"ugh…I'm sorry"

'wow that was very effective and to mention he saved my life twice ' As I looked at him with respect he looked at me with curiosity and then surprise.

"hmm child you're eyes have wisdom not of you're age, do you perhaps understand us?"

"…Zeus-sama mortal children don't understand langu-"

before she finished saying anythingInodded my head making them both fall in silence

'i mean I understand why, but I can't really lie to him as he can tell and that saves me a lot of toddlers pain '

"bell you can understand us?!?!"Meteria said with a surprise

I nodded my head again to her question

"kyaaa my bell is smart even when he is born, my bell is amazing" Meteria took me from Zeus arms to another hug a gentle one this time

' a fast learner like Bell huh'

"hmm I lived in the mortal world for ages yet this is the first time I've seen something like this, child do you perhaps know why"

'hmm I can lie about my past life so let's do it like this

I tilted my head then I smiled and then I started sucking air like a vacuum for a couple of seconds then I thought of move, a really cool one.

'arcan dragon Roar' I screamed but what came out wasn't a baby scream but a dragon roar which scared Meteria and made Zeus jump back.

"...."

"....."

after seeing their faces I started laughing my heart off that was really funny

"My dear bell do you think scaring you're mother was a fun thing to do?"

just hearing this question made my body shiver

'fuck I'm screwed up I forget how formidable she is when she is angry, let's just play it innocently'

thinking of this I stared back at her with a bright smile as if not too sure what I have done wrong

"haaa you're a handful when you're just a baby If ear for you're future," Meteria said while sighting

"hmm looks like his magic made him gain awareness at an early age and looks like it's related to dragons the thing I don't like much," Zues said while thinking about the future of this child

"he is my child he is n-cough -cough —cough" While saying this she started coughing blood which scared both of us

'ah right she is about to die of sickness it's already a miracle she gives birth'

"…Meteria"

"I know….. I don't have much time left... it really saddens me th…. that I can't watch you grow up….. but I will always be watching you from above my bell" Meteria looked at Bell with sadness but quickly changed it to her usual smile.

but surprisingly he didn't show much reaction except for looking her dead in the eyes.

"b-bell?"Meteria was a bit confused by his actions, at first she thought he didn't understand what death is as he was just born and hadn't seen much from the world but then she thought he understood her as she is abandoning him and with she started freaking out again

"b-bell i-it's not tha-"

before she finished what she was saying bell's eyes started glowing red along with his marking and multiple colored aura surrounding him and his eyes slowly moved up looking at the ceiling to be more precise the sky from a blank look to a wild angry raging beast.

"!!! CHILD DON'T!!" Zeus exclaimed loudly making a bell and glancing at him with a questioning gaze.

"child calm down, I know you don't want to lose you're mother but you're going to end up cursing yourself and meteria" Hearing what Zeus said I froze.

'what was I trying to do, fight the heavens? I'm not even strong enough to fight not to mention declaring war on the heavens I acted on impulse almost endangering my mother…. I think this is what god meant when he said we will become one person, I ditched all the rationality I had and acted recklessly….I'm not stable at the moment

"…bell…I'm sorry that I will leave you…. but you shouldn't do something this reckless….I give birth to you to enjoy your life to enjoy it and live happily not to hurt yourself for my sake…I want to see you enjoy living as I did….. can you please accept your mother's selfish wish"

I looked at her with sadness, it would be a lie to say I'm fine with her dying because I already know about it I'm not, this is the first mother that treated me with warmth, I didn't even know who was my mother in my past life, so to lose her in my new life just like that is just heartbreaking.

'But I know I shouldn't be like this, this is not what she wants to see

while thinking of that I started smiling at her while nodding my head answering that I will go with her wish.

"thank you my bell….I love you…..Zeus-same please take care of Bell in my and his place…please"

"I will Meteria you can rest in peace now you have my word keep watching him from above"

Both I and Zues accompanied her until her last breath and she passed away with the same warm smile that melted everyone's heart around her.

after that Zeus built a grave for her in the ruins of Orario, while it wasn't the best place for a grave the surrounding nature blended with it giving a special charm, after burying her he started comforting me pulling me into his embrace.

"It's fine ch- bell, it's fine now don't blame yourself for her death, know that you are her miracle and the one that fulfilled her life wish to have a child, a continuous of her life so smile, because you smiling makes her smile back at us from above"

"umm," I said while smiling at him

"Good now then let's find another place to live this city no longer holds a worth to stay in it"

Saying this he started making his way out of the city while I give one last look at Mother's grave

'Mother don't worry I will live my life and enjoy it

My red eyes started glowing ominously with a hint of madness while I had my smile slowly turned into a wicked grin.

'because I will not accept any more losses and I will get you back and everyone else in the family either the easy way or the hard way
