Chapter 138 Inala Wakes Up
"I know of one such world." Renduldu nodded, "It's a Transcendent World that has barely begun to form. Some weak creatures without powers have already appeared in that world. I can bring them there, but not their bodies. That's too risky."
"Sumatra would reject them during the return trip." Renduldu said, "For safety reasons, I'll bring their souls with me."
He then stared at Resha and changed his mind, "But I'd like to use my ability on him first. I'm curious about what the future holds in store. His future is the clearest."
After collecting the souls of the six babies, Renduldu touched Resha and activated his power. In an instant, he experienced Resha's entire future, until the moment he was killed by the Boar King.
"I see, so that's what happens." Renduldu sighed.
[What happened?]
"Brangara basically steals all your accumulation in the end, grows even more terrifying, and annihilates your herd. It wasn't available in Resha's future, but I can guess what happens next since I can feel it." Renduldu spoke, "He kills the other herd and fills his Astral Chart with Internal Inertial Gravity. He then heads into the nearby continent to kill the Empyrean Tusk herd there. And by the end, he reaches the peak of cultivation and becomes a Transcendent."
"Even in the Transcendent World, he continues to hunt the Mammoth Clan."
[As I thought, he's too dangerous!]
"Well, it hasn't happened yet, so don't worry. Besides, a good enemy only makes you stronger, if you can survive, that is." Renduldu said in seriousness, "Trust me, you will require all that experience before becoming a Transcendent. Because once you reach my stage, your growth halts entirely."
Since he had used his power, his body began to disperse. Now that he had seen Resha's future, he made some changes to his plans and extracted the souls of the parents of all seven children.
Renduldu patted Gannala gently and disappeared, "I'll return soon."
Travelling through space and time, he arrived at Earth, inserting the souls of everyone into the bodies of people there. By making the native souls dormant, he made the souls he brought remain active, hence controlling the body and living through that life.
This way, the souls also inherited all skills, talents, and memories of the native bodies.
Renduldu could only do so on bodies compatible with the souls he carried. Hence, he couldn't simply plant them in the bodies of the best that humanity on Earth could offer.
He made a family with Resha's parents and lived there as a native. And once he grew up, he began to write a book titled, "Sumatra Chronicles."
It was a decent hit with a sizeable following. And through a bit of targeted ads, Renduldu ensured the eyes of everyone—from Sumatra—fell on Sumatra Chronicles.
Even though the parents couldn't recall their past lives, they were still drawn to Sumatra Chronicles. Of course, they weren't the target of Renduldu's power. They were simply brought as guardians to ensure the six kids were safe.
He monitored the comments from the accounts used by Inala and the rest. And eventually, the day for the ending arrived. The comments from many readers were full of anger and hate at the abrupt ending.
But the ones from Inala and the five others took the cake. They didn't understand the reason they were so enamoured by Sumatra Chronicles to the extent it became a distinct part of their lives.
In truth, it was merely their souls longing for their home world. No matter how treacherous it might be, that was the world these souls belonged to. Hence, Sumatra Chronicles resonated with them intensely.
