Hey loyal readers so my prologue will be 3 chapters. For now, the rest of the prologue and maybe the first few chapters will be in the Eminence in Shadow universe. I shall also try and include the order in such the 7 Shadows were recruited and saved. Lastly, I will also include Seto's view on family and how he feels. So, without further ado please enjoy.

Seto's P.O.V.

"Look dear it's a boy." A woman spoke.

"Aww. Claire always wanted a baby brother." Spoke a male.

Like Deus said I was reincarnated into a different world. I am the second child of Baron Kagenou and his wife. Supposedly I have an older sister named Claire.

Also I have my past memories from my other life. The knowledge of my powers, magic, you name it. Plus I have the mindset and mental capacity of a 10 year old in a recently born baby. Kinda weird.

"He is strange. Our son. He is not crying." I heard the woman say.

Guess I have to start crying I guess.

(Fake crying.)

"There he goes a healthy heart cry." The man said.

So I guess babies cry a lot. Anyway so as this is my family I take it. So now I refer to this man as my 'father' and the woman as my 'mother'. Finally I guess Claire is going to be my sister.

Is ... is this what it's like to have a family?

10 years later.

Haven a family is not all I thought it would be. So I'm growing up in the shadow of my older sister Claire Kagenou who is a prodigy and next in line to for the family. So neither my mom or dad spend much time on my sister.

Part of the reason is also because Deus and Mur Mur do not want me using my powers or true skills with a blade. So basically I hide my abilities.

Still this makes me wonder. Is a parent. Either a mom or dad only love a child with promise yet not love a child who shows no promise? So does that mean as long as I hide my abilities my parents won't care for me? If I did show off my powers would they love me?

All these questions are stuff I wonder.

When I was 7 Mur Mur approached me. She began teaching more about the world and we retrained my body to use the slime bodysuit again. Once I got the hang of it. Mur Mur and I would sneak out of my parents manson and have me fight bandits.

The first time I killed a bandit. I confess I felt bad. Which surprised me. I mean bandits were bad people who pillaged and killed innocent people. So since they are bad I guess I shouldn't feel guilty right? Sadly asking mom or dad is out of the question.

So after killing the bandits for the first time I asked Mur Mur about how I should feel. She explained that people have different definitions of 'right' or 'wrong' and guilt. She said the fact of me feeling guilt for taking life even if it's bad is proof I'm not all bad.

So back to my training. First Mur Mur had be get back to using my slime suit. After I killed the bandits I took all the gold and valuables I could find. Also I took the weapons and stored them into a dimension where time doesn't flow using the Daikokuten. Then when I need to I use Sukunahikona to shrink them then when they strike the bandit I revert them to their original size.

For the past 3 years I've been taking weapons and storing them so now I can use them. Now Mur Mur came to meet me for us to discuss tonight's raid.

"Okay so listen Seto. You have stored a lot of weapons and stuff over the past 3 years. Now when you attack these bandits I want you to utilize both Sukunahikona and Daikokuten. You can wear the slime suit but don't use it to fight the bandits." Mur Mur explained.
