"What... what is this?"He grew shocked even as he uttered those words.
He couldn’t hear himself.
He tried glancing down at his own body.
It wasn’t there.
He was submerged in endless darkness.
’This...’ His eyes widened. ’This reminds me of Amare’s description of what she went through after I resurrected her.’
She was drowned in memories of another person.
Suddenly, the darkness stirred as Rui grew alert.
He could vaguely feel like something was shifting.
Then, he saw a faint light.
A faint light that grew closer and closer.
This time, he recognized the sensation.
It was his oldest memory as Rui.
The day he was reborn.
The light swallowed the darkness as he heard the sound of a crying newborn infant.
"Waaaa!"
The blinding light began to grow dimmer and dimmer by the second as the muffled sounds of ecstatic people grew increasingly louder and discernible. The sterile odor of rubbing alcohol hung in the air, characteristic of medical environments.
For a moment, Rui wondered if he had died and had been ’reincarnated’ once more!
It took several minutes for his eyes to adjust and actually get a good look around him.
When he did, he almost jolted with shock.
"This..." He stared at the translucent people with shock. "Evosapiens. They just delivered an evosapien baby..."
The medical room contained military characteristics with even nurses wearing some form of military medical attire, while several others in the room wore work uniforms attired with medals and badges of a language Rui couldn’t read.
But he understood where he was.
’These are memories of the Evolutionary Army... which means that this baby must be...’
"Anthea." The evosapien mother gazed down at her baby with deep love, speaking to the baby affectionately in the language of the Evolutionaries.
Rui’s expression darkened.
As he had suspected, these were Anthea’s memories.
He didn’t understand.
He had taken a single goddamn cell.
That too from a corpse.
And had resurrected it, before making it go through its own transformation in the form of an evosapien stem cell. Why in the world did Rui experience the Supreme Commander’s memories?
’It’s undoubtedly because I replaced half my brain with his neurons... does his DNA or cell contain his memories? What kind of absurdity is that?’
Rui couldn’t imagine how such a thing was possible. It must have been a truly unfathomable mechanism by which information was stored in his cells if even the Divine Doctor had failed to mention it.
’Wait...’ Rui’s eyes widened with shock. ’I inherited his memories by inheriting his cells. Then... then what about all the evosapien children conceived from his seed?’
Chills crawled across his skin as the sheer gravity of the situation weighed on him. The so-called generation of miracles of the Evolutionary Army was bad enough, but it was much worse when he combined it with the insights that he had just made.
’Did he do this on purpose?’ His eyes widened. ’Did he integrate his memories into his DNA so that his seed would be able to pass on his memories to all of his offspring?!’
He was essentially making all of his children go through their own Soul Transfer Rituals!
The Soul Transfer Ritual was more than just memories, of course. It was exposed to the same growth trajectory physiologically to ensure that they would be as similar to the original as possible. However, given that the Evolutionary Army was a unique, high-discipline, totalitarian organization and state, it could very well be that all of the generation of miracles would receive the exact same kind of childhood as the former Supreme Commander!
This would make them extremely good vessels for the resurrection of Anthea!
’This... this cannot be part of ordinary protocols for Supreme Commanders when passing on their genetic legacy.’
Rui had learned only after his battle with Anthea that it was customary for all Supreme Commanders, usually male, to accelerate their evolution at the cost of their remaining lifespan before producing seed that contained that genetic legacy so that the next generation of evosapiens could benefit from it as a species.
However, none of the intelligence or information that they had gotten from the true world, whether it was the Hlakaschken Trade Empire or the dark elves, had ever talked about the Supreme Commanders passing on their memories!
’This... this must be the work of Anthea specifically.’ Rui realized. ’That would explain why I’m only just learning of this. He must have evolved to uncharted and unprecedented levels and achieved unfathomable genetic control. That is the only way he could have encoded all of his memories into his own cells without anybody knowing!’
It was a horrifying realization.
It meant that all the evosapien babies born after his death were born with his memories!
In the worst-case scenario, they would all grow up to identify as the Supreme Commander and would all become mini-Antheas, which meant that when they grew up, the Panama Continent might have to deal with an army of Antheas!
Rui rarely experienced fear these days, but that revelation inspired dread even within him.
’But even if they don’t identify as Anthea, this is still really bad!’ Rui realized. ’These evosapien kids will inherit the memories of the most powerful evosapien to ever live. They will grow up remembering all of his techniques, his genetic mastery, his adaptive evolution, and his growth trajectory. They will have access to his muscle memory!’
They would reach a realm of power that was simply unprecedented in a very short amount of time. They may not even necessarily have to wait two decades to master their power, they could very well all be unprecedented prodigies that would express a level of power that truly broke any sense of fairness.
’They were already extraordinarily overpowered before, but now...’
Now they were just immeasurable.
Their potential was unfathomable.
Their rate of growth would make even him look like a tortoise.
It would be beyond disastrous.
It was no wonder that the Evolutionary Army was truly content just sitting still for the next twenty years.
As long as they could ensure that nothing happened, their crushing dominance was inevitable!
