The Tyrannical Emperor Returns to being a Soldier Again

001: Zelis

"I remember my previous life."

Currently this is a lounge area in the royal palace. Everyone gathered here is a trusted family member of royalty.

"Zelis...?" Felina, the duchess and mother of Zelis.

Of course, anyone would be shocked if their son suddenly says this.

"My name was Izria. I once lived in a different world that was much more advance and knowledgable than this world's present era."

"No, stop. Zelis, you can't just tell us this without giving us some time to calm down." Solas, the duke and father of Zelis.

This started about half a year ago on my eighth birthday. I woke up in the morning and slowly remembered my past.

At first I was a little disoriented and needed time to digest all my memories. But then I thought about the future of my current life.

I never once thought about hiding my difference. I also didn't want to pretend or lie my whole life.

So I decided to confess.

"Mom. Dad. I know lately I've been acting differently, but give me some time and space to sort things out first."

With the trust of my parents, half a year peacefully flew by and it was time to tell everyone.

That's why now in a lounge room is:

My uncle the king, Ledrigo.
My aunt the queen and sister of my father, Muriana.
My cousin the crown prince and a year younger than me, Ophelia.

My father the duke, Solas.
My mother the duchess, Felina.
And me, Zelis.

My grandfather is also here, but he's on a communication crystal ball.

"I can explain it as many times as needed, but I think it would be faster and easier if I do this."

An artifact appeared in the middle of the room and floated on the table in front of everyone.

"This is a memory recording magical tool left behind by my brother, Izura. He and I were born as twins. I was the younger one."

"The memory recording is something my brother wanted to give to my family to see..."

"Whether that meant for the family he was hoping I would create in my previous life or he knew I would be born into a good family in this life. Either way, everyone here is my family no matter which life I'm living."

"So I'm going to show you what my brother recorded for all of you to see. But... I won't be able to know what you'll see because my brother told me that I am never allowed to see what's inside by myself."

"Oh and grandpa can see the recoding later. Just be prepared when the time comes."

"Is everyone ready? Once you've touched the artifact and it activates, your consciousness will be transferred into what seems like a small world or space."

Everyone looked at each other and nodded while they put their hands on the magic tool.

"My name is Izria and this is my family."
