Seventh Reincarnation
Depart

"Ruby, how long were you there?"

In front of Ars is a large tree, Aqua fails to persuade Ruby back. So, he came and persuaded her.

"No, I don't want to see uncle."

Sitting on a tree branch, Ruby hugged her legs and buried her face on her knees.

"Well, since Ruby doesn't want to take me away, there's no other choice."

Ars turned around and prepared to leave.

Ruby's mood grew sadder as her uncle did not try to persuade her. Hearing the sound of footsteps getting further away, he became panicked and shouted.

"Wait!"

"What's? Don't you want to see me again?"

Ars stopped, turned back and looked at the crying Ruby.

Wiping tears across her face, Ruby walked down the tree carefully, then ran and threw herself into Ars' arms.

"Bad uncle, you obviously know that's not what I mean."

Waving out his complaints, he hit Ars in the chest.

"Does uncle know how much it hurts my heart to hear you're leaving and never to see each other again? Just thinking about it makes my chest feel tight and makes it hard to breathe, can you stay here? I always wanted to be with you forever..."

Ruby looked at Ars pleading. The corner of his eyes was red from crying and his face looked very sad.

"I'm sorry, Ruby."

Ars touched Ruby's head and rubbed her hair.

"Why?"

Despite knowing she can't change her mind, Ruby wants to try and her efforts fail.

"Ruby should have realized I was different from the others, right?"

"Ens. Uncle's appearance was never from before."

Ruby was always curious as to why Ars always looked the same, while father, mother, and others slowly aged. In addition, he has witnessed many things Ars has done, which no one else can do.

He wanted to ask about this, but did not dare to ask.

"I am neither a human nor a creature of this world. So, I have to leave this world sooner or later." Ars doesn't explain in much detail.

"I don't care if uncle is human or not! Every day with you is so much fun and I want to be with you, is it really impossible?"

Ruby shed tears and hugged Ars even tighter.

"I can't return your feelings, we're not meant to be together."

Maybe Ruby didn't realize that her words were a confession. However, Ars refused.

He did not want to be in a romantic relationship with a human woman, because he could see the end result. They are separated by death.

Ars had already felt how sad it was to be left behind by his acquaintances. If mere acquaintance had made him very sad, then what if the woman he loved died?

He was sure that his sadness would be many times over and perhaps he would go crazy.

Therefore, he would never have a relationship with a human woman, unless he had obtained the Eternity Potion, so he made her immortal like himself.

"Hic..."

Rejected by the person she liked, Ruby's body trembled and her tears flowed even more profusely.

Ars was not very good at dealing with women, he just kept quiet and let her cry on his chest.

After a few minutes, Ruby's cry stopped.

"Sorry to have caused trouble, uncle."

Taking a few steps away, he wiped the corner of his eyes and showed a forced smile.

"Let's go back, your mom and dad are worried about you."

Ars extended his hand in front of Ruby.

"Uncle, close your eyes."

"Just do it, this is our last meeting. At least you're following my selfish request for the last time."

"Alright if that's what you want."

Ars had already guessed what Ruby wanted to do, but he did not refuse and closed his eyes.

And sure enough, a soft and wet sensation was felt on her lips.

Opening her eyes, she saw Ruby kissing her with a red face.

The kissing session did not last long, Ruby took a few steps back while touching her lips.

"So it feels like kissing... Dad once said that a woman's first kiss is very precious and should be given to the man who is most precious to her."

"I gave it to my uncle, it's a parting gift from me."

After saying that, resisting the urge to cry, Ruby ran away leaving Ars, who was standing dazed on the spot.

"Byakuya taught him Japanese culture, huh..."

Returning to his senses, Ars smiled wryly.

"In my seven reincarnated lives, this was the first time I ever kissed. In the end, my first kiss was stolen by a 14 year old girl. It's like the Chinese saying, old cows eat young grass."

[Author's Note: Old cows eating young grass means a relationship between two people who are very far apart]

Ars is now 215 years old, while Ruby is only 15. Their age difference is several generations apart, pedophiles can no longer describe it.

"Forget it, the feelings Ruby had were only temporary. I'm sure after my departure, he'll forget about me as time passes."

No longer thinking about this topic, he returned to the village.

...

The party lasted almost all day and only stopped when the sun started to sink in the western horizon.

Byakuya, Shamil, Yakov, Lillian, Connie, Darya, and all his descendants gathered together to witness Ars' departure.

"It's time, it's time for me to leave." Ars nodded to everyone.

"What kind of world are you going to?" Byakuya asked curiously.

"Without the coordinates, I didn't know what kind of world I would arrive in. It might be a fantasy world of swords and magic, a primitive world, a world of advanced civilization, a world of doomsday, etc. Simply put, I can only rely on luck."

Each world in the Endless Void showed no difference, it all looked like a giant ball of light. So, Ars really didn't know what kind of world he chose until he arrived.

"So then, I can only pray that you arrive in the world you hoped for." Byakuya smiled widely.

"Hopefully your journey is smooth." Lillian showed a gentle smile.

"Hide the immortality, it will attract the attention of greedy people." Shamil reminded.

"While you're strong, no one knows what kind of existence you're hiding, so make sure you're careful, Ars." Connie said next to her husband.

"Don't forget to help people who need help if you're free." Yakov wants to see Ars be a good guy.

"If you decide to stay in society, don't forget to follow human habits such as eating, sleeping, and changing your clothes every day so as not to be flashy." Darya said helplessly.

"I'll remember." Ars shrugged and said calmly.

Later, the astronaut's descendants say goodbye and the last one is Ruby.

"Goodbye, uncle. May you find your happiness."

"Thank you very much, Ruby."

Ars touched Ruby's head one last time.

"Goodbye, everybody. The time I spent with you guys was so much fun."

Waving his hand, a purple magic circle appeared under his feet. A moment later, his figure turned into a flake of light and disappeared.

"Uncle..."

Seeing Ars completely gone for good, Ruby couldn't hold back her tears and started crying in her mother's arms.

"Sigh~ Ars, you are a sinful man."

Byakuya sighed, and could not bear to see his daughter cry.
