Chapter 70 Reincarnation And Regression
To get the most out of his reincarnation, he would need to have his memories sealed and only let a slight bit of it out to help him retain his original personality.
The slight memory leak would also help him develop an intuition that could help figure out a lot many things.
After explaining this, Alex jumped to the important bit.
"…coming to the main question on why everyone won\'t be lonely…"
Alex flashed a small smile.
"The reason is that you all are reincarnating with me as well."
A surprised look appeared on the goddesses\' face.
"Don\'t be surprised." Alex chuckled. "It\'s only natural for a mortal to have a partner. When I reincarnate, I need you guys. So…"
"Ah…" The Goddesses understood.
Alex then smiled and continued, "other than that, I am sure I won\'t have much of a challenge when I am a mortal, even with my memories sealed. Thus… I ask everyone…"

"…and then he mentioned about us giving him some challenges." Scarlett finished off this flashback story in Athena\'s stead.
Fate let out a surprised expression. "So that\'s what transpired."
"Indeed." Athena nodded her head.
Fate then pondered over things and said, "he wants us to give him challenges, act like villains, and spend time in the mortal world… is he just… that bored?"
Scarlett laughed out loud hearing that. "Seems like it."
She didn\'t deny it which made Fate and Athena both shake their heads.
In the back of their minds, they somehow had an idea that Alex would one day do such a thing as there had been many Gods and Goddesses who had reincarnated as mortals to show them various paths to life and living.
It only made sense that Alex reincarnated as well to show the universe an optimum path.
Though, in his case, since he had too many wives, he couldn\'t preach a normal path of having one partner, thus he hadn\'t been asked to reincarnate before.
Now the situation was different as he had to show the universe the Gene path.
It didn\'t matter if one had one wife or multiple wives, all that mattered was cause and effect as well as hard work one would be putting forwards into this for their ascension to Godhood.
The three chatted together some more and during their talks, Fate asked, "I don\'t understand, why was made to reincarnate once and then regress?"
Athena took a sip of tea and answered, "it\'s because a starting point was needed."
"Hmm?" Fate didn\'t understand.
"Starting point as in…"
Alex couldn\'t start Gene Path cultivation without having a strong foundation.
Not only him, nobody was eligible to be on the Gene Path unless they had something in them.
Alex was reincarnated as a really average individual in his first life.
He lived an average life as well, with the exception of gaining immense medical knowledge due to his own hard work.
Once it was established that he had enough knowledge and a strong foundation, he was made to regress by getting him into a cross-fire.
After his regression, Melissa met him only when he started walking a bit on the right path.
Her meeting him so early and showing a glimpse of Godhood at the start was to let him know the vastness of cultivation and give him a drive to strive forwards.
Other than that, it was also to help him be on the right track of finding partners.
Without Melissa, Alex wouldn\'t hit on any other lady as he really wasn\'t interested.
This uninterested attitude appeared due to the slight leak in his memories that influenced him.
Women other than his wives didn\'t matter to him much, leading him to appear asexual to everybody around him.
It was only after Melissa\'s appearance did Alex understand the type of women he liked and wanted to be around with.
He also accepted her so easily because his memories were influencing his subconscious and somewhere in the back of his mind, he had a feeling that he knew Melissa and shared a connection with her.
Had the slight leak in his memories not happened, there was not a single chance of Alex accepting Melissa.
He definitely would\'ve been asexual throughout his life and this was really necessary to be done.
After Melissa, Nix appeared and she didn\'t have her memories sealed because nobody wanted to give Alex a really hard time at the very start.
The wives and Alex would be playing on an equal ground and a mortal couldn\'t be put up against a God like this; it wasn\'t fair.
Melissa had thus appeared like a normal young lady and Nix appeared as someone with slight powers.
"In the future, memories would be sealed completely and husband would need to do his level best to identify and accept them." Athena mentioned, which made Fate put on a pondering expression again.
A few moments of thinking later, Fate said, "all of this you said… sealing memories, reincarnating, searching… isn\'t all of this basically a normal life but with extra steps?"
What she was trying to say was, everyone was reincarnating with memories sealed, then the situations would take place as if they had never met their husband.
Wasn\'t all of this just a normal course of life? Finding partners for yourself, seducing them, capturing their hearts, and so on…?
Athena put her teacup down and said, "you\'re making it seem complicated, but it really isn\'t. I\'ll clarify better. Thinking of it like…"
Athena spread her hands and showed them to Fate.
"…nothing."
"Huh?"
Athena nodded. "Think as if we are doing nothing. Think as if there\'s no reincarnations or anything and husband is just living a normal course of mortal life. That\'s about it."
"Then what about sis—"
Scarlett put a finger on Fate\'s lips. "You\'re just going to make yourself more confused, keep quiet."
Fate blinked and didn\'t say anything anymore.
Athena then said, "you know, everyone\'s gonna be a normal person after reincarnation. They\'ll have their memories completely sealed and there won\'t be any difference between a mortal who\'s reincarnated into their next life after death and the rest of the sisters."
"They are actually also getting new bodies and since the memories are sealed, it\'ll be like it\'s their first time. A fun thing for both husband and the sisters. They\'ll get to re-live their first times once again."
"Damn!" Fate was amazed. "So basically, they\'ll start from the start when they meet? Like how things had transpired eons ago?"
"Exactly like that!" Athena answered.
Scarlett chuckled from the side. She winked at Fate and said, "I am excited to see you reincarnate, then discover your maso personality again."
"Sis!" Fate shot a look at Scarlett while her face flushed.
Scarlett covered her face and giggled. "It\'s going to be really fun to see everyone\'s kinks and fetishes be out in the open."
Athena nodded her head. "That\'s true. Nixie aside, the rest of the sisters that are going to come up soon, they\'ll all be like normal people. I wonder how husband\'s gonna find them and how long it\'ll take for their relationships to develop."
Fate was anticipating this as well and stared at the mortal world from Elysium.
As for Scarlett, she got up from her seat and said, "you guys do your things, I\'m gonna go meditate. Don\'t break rules otherwise there\'s gonna be ass whooping. See ya~~"
Saying so, Scarlett left while the two Goddesses didn\'t mind her words and continued to see what their husband was doing.
***
Alex, Melissa, and Nix were still in the living room, doing their kisses.
Time in Elysium was much different than that of the physical realms and at this point of time, Melissa had put up Alex\'s hand on Nix\'s butt and he was groping it while kissing her.
Once Alex broke the kiss with Nix, she cleared her throat and said, "I didn\'t know things were going to develop this quickly."
Alex didn\'t understand and looked at her in confusion.
Nix pointed down. "Where\'s your hand, darling?"
Squeezing his hand, Alex suddenly realized that his left hand wasn\'t in the direction of Melissa.
It also wasn\'t long enough to reach Melissa from where he was and what he was squeezing was…
\'Oh crap.\' Alex thought to himself.
Taking his hand away from Nix, he did a light cough and said, "it was an accident."
Nix chuckled and wrapping her hands around his neck, said, "if it was, I hope it happens more often."
"Hey! It\'s my turn to kiss now. Get away!" Melissa shoved Nix aside and got together with Alex.
The three kissed for a few more minutes and then went back to doing their things.
Alex went to get some rest while Nix and Melissa continued to watch tv in the living room, living their normal everyday lives.
