Demon Lord's Reincarnation-Chapter 645 What Happened?
Ren burst out of the darkness and when he opened his eyes the original incarnation was not there as he expected, and the place he was in was no longer inside his soul realm. The place he woke up in was still dark all around but unlike before he could feel his body moving, he could smell the scent of fire, and when he used his mana sense it actually worked.
Ren was quite surprised to know he was underneath the body of a massive living being, it was a being that was quite literally bigger than most planets. Ren was a little confused at first but then he felt the contract with Tanith was having some kind of weird reaction, it was at that moment he finally realized who the massive living being that was on top of him was.
Ren quickly burst out all of his spiritual power as he teleported himself outside the area where Tanith's body was. When Ren got out of the Shade under Tanith's body what he saw was simply a disaster.
By the looks of it, he was no longer in the area of the upper planes he was once in, but in an area where the ground looks like the reflection of the universe and the sky was filled with stars blowing up.
Tanith the dragon in front of him was barely alive her obsidian scales that deflect most physical and spiritual attacks were broken, and her body was bleeding all over but not a single drop of blood was on the ground.
Tanith's eyes opened and when she saw Ren she quickly transformed into her human form. Upon transforming into her human form, Tanith looked even more bloody. Even though she had blood all over her body, the bloody appearance actually enhanced Tanith's violent beauty.
"It has been such a long time... It's a good thing... I was able to see you again..." Tanith smiled as she staggered towards Ren caressing his face, her eyes no longer able to focus. "I... Hope I can join you again... in... another... advent-" Tanith couldn't finish her words as her eyes closed never to be opened again.
Even though Ren has never truly met Tanith, the memories from Edge came flooding in and he could not stop a tear from falling. Ren tried to communicate with the people in his soul realm but no one responded, in fact, after trying for a while he found out that he could not communicate with them but he could not enter his soul realm.

As Ren was trying to figure things out he notice that Tanith's left hand was pointing at something. Since he could not figure out where he was Ren decided to head in the direction Tanith was pointing at, but before he left he encased Tanith's body in ice and absorbed it into his shadow.
...
While Ren was dashing through the unknown land the bursting stars above him gave him an ominous feeling.
Even though Ren himself had the power to destroy stars, seeing so many stars being destroyed at the same time was quite the spectacle. Please visit 𝒇𝚛𝙚𝙚𝘸𝙚𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎𝘭. c𝑜𝘮
It was not only chaotic outside, but even inside Ren's mind was equally chaotic, for some reason he could not seem to think clearly. It was not as bad as when he was inside the darkness but it was still affecting his overall performance. This phenomenon was also enhancing some of his emotions.
Ren who was running at full speed was also spreading out his mana sense, and after a while, he suddenly felt many familiar presences. The look on Ren's face was that of shock and worry as those familiar presences were weakening until they slowly disappeared.
Ren burst out with more power as he sprinted towards the area where he felt those presences. When Ren arrived he could not speak as what he saw was something he never wanted to see. Lara, Tsukiyomi, Elizabeth, and all of his other wives were there on the ground most of them were already dead.
Ren could not understand what he was seeing, even Tsukiyomi and Elizabeth had fallen. Those two have fought Old Gods before, and Elizabeth even faced off against an Ancient God and survived. Not only the two of them but all of his wives were battle capable even if they could not defeat an Old God they still had the ability to escape.
Ren gritted his teeth and approached Elizabeth the only one who was still alive. Ren tried to heal her but no matter what he did nothing was working. Elizabeth opened her eyes and when she saw Ren she showed a similar smile as Tanith.
"Hey... I guess I won't be able to accompany you on your next battles... I'm sorry that I was too weak to protect them." Ren quickly shook his head as he gently hugged the dying Elizabeth. Even though time was limited Ren did not even think of asking her what happened to them.
"It's not your fault, it is mine for being too weak to protect any of you."
"You really are different from the other reincarnations... Always apologizing... Hey Ren, can you please call me by my name for one last time? Not Silika but my true name." Elizabeth's voice was becoming softer the more she spoke.
"Of course, Elizabeth. I will call you by this name until you're satisfied."
"..." Elizabeth no longer responded her breathing slowed down until it finally stopped.
"Eli..."
Ren slowly placed Elizabeth down and saw that she had a wonderful smile on her face. Seeing her like this Ren closed his eyes for a moment, he then stood up, picked up all of his wives, and placed them next to each other. Ren cleaned their bodies and fixed their clothes, after he was done he encased them all in ice and placed them into his shadow, except for one.
Ren took a long look at Lara, he then closed his eyes and hugged her dead body. Ren gently kissed Lara's forehead then he leaned forward and whispered something in her ear. Ren continued to hug her dead body as if wanting to warm her body back to life, but no matter how long he hugged her she remained unmoving. Ren separated from Lara. encased her in ice and placed her into his shadow. As her body encased in ice was descending into his shadow Ren mumbled to himself.
"Thank you, for everything."
