Memories of Anime Timelines

29 Chapter 27 - Ishvalan

'This world... contains God. If I were to enter it, I might be able to reconstruct Yuna.'

I tap the memory. It fills me with all the information I know, and I dive deeper into it.

*****

'Where am I?' (Zhong Yuan)

I try open my eyes, but I felt blind.

'That's weird...'

Instead of using my advanced senses, I try to use my soul to probe. All I saw red and pink flesh around me. I was covered in juices and seemed to be floating around.

"I'm being... Reincarnated?" (Zhong Yuan)

"Whatever, I'll just rest until the time has come." (Zhong Yuan)

Before I slept, I tried connecting to the previous powers I used to own. I still had magic circuits, my magic, All the World's Evil, and my weapons. How did my weapons transfer? I made sure to connect these with my soul, bounding them to me. There was a green tattoo of my katana on my right palm and a red tattoo of a gun in my left.

I was still quite overpowered as a fetus, but I was determined to become stronger. I kept on probing until I saw a knife pointing to my mom.

"That...contains...Evil!...we...remove...before...it's...born!" (???)

I heard a tiny voice outside. I was shocked. How could they sense Angra Mainyu's Power? Seeing this, I decided to cover it up with the other emotions I have gathered before in the Nasuverse.

"What...this? Is...he...human?" (???)

"Please, let me child be born! I beg of you!" (???)

I judged that was my mom begging for my safety. It was something I haven't experience for a while.

[Self Afflict - +4%]

Well, guess I'm changing. Even the most developed soul have a container that can change them.

*****

Some years has passed and I am aware of my current identity. I was born nameless, since my mother later abandoned my for her village's sake and I was an Ishvalan. I was born with white hair, red eyes, and seemed a bit too short due to being malnourished.

"Am I taller that Edward in this series?" (Zhong Yuan)

I couldn't know, but around this time, he would have been born. Without any home or food, I signed up to become a Monk. Ishvalan Monks were highly renown melee fighters. I entered it due to winning the competition and slowly grew up to become a powerful fighter. Becoming an Ishvalan Monk, I gained access to what's going on to the world around. I was born in 1854, the same date the person who will become Wrath was born and 15 years has passed.

There was still quite a lot of time left until Ishval Civil War in 1901, so I decided to train in Alchemy in secret. Of course, it was highly illegal in Ishval and being caught will get me exiled, but I didn't care since I no longer had any family members.

Alchemy was a difficult topic to master. I had to learn Comprehension, Deconstruction, Reconstruction, the two laws of Alchemy, and Transmutation Circles. It was quite easy since my mind processed information way to quickly due to me meddling with my soul in my previous life and I had all the information regarding Transmutation Circles.

The only that worried me was about where I got the energy to do Alchemy. Later in the series, it was revealed the energy in which Amestris uses in Alchemy comes from the Philosopher's stone. Underground, Father is between the Surface and Crust as a barrier to stop True Energy from resurfacing.

'How can I get access to this True Energy?' (Zhong Yuan)

Unfortunately, I couldn't get access to it because of Father's plan so I had to defeat him later to find it.

So with most of Alchemy mastered, I moved on to Alkahestry, the concept of using Dragon's pulse or Earth's constant flow of chi. Nothing regarding how to use Alkahestry was shown in the manga or anime, so I had to research it on my own. It was hard to master since the Xingese Alkahestry was made with a lot years of research into it. I also quit being a fighter monk and got myself a partner. He was Scar's older brother that later incorporated tattoos of both Alchemy and Alkahestry principles into Scar's infamous arm.

"Yo! Got any progress done?" (Zhong Yuan)

"Yeah but I still don't understand some of these concepts..." (Scar's brother)

What I taught him was modern chemistry. Scar's brother was pretty good at learning, but he was stuck with the basic principles. When he learned my method which was electromagnetism, gravity, and nuclear forces that shape the world, he had to rework everything he learned before which was simply water, earth, fire and air or the concept of Wu Xing (The 5 chinese elements).

"Well, it's finally time for me to go." (Zhong Yuan)

"Yes. I'll see you later then, partner." (Scar's brother)

And the story starts.
