Yasuo was sitting and blankly staring at, not the moon, but the sun. One might find this very normal, however, nothing in Yasuo's life is normal. For the short explanation, the moon turned into the sun and this sun did not provide any light at all. Another question one might ask is- how did the said 'moon' turn into the said 'sun'- the answer to this question is quite simple and that is, Yasuo had no clue.

After that incredible impossibility, Yasuo once again started his divine art of obtaining immortality by continuously swinging his wooden sword and drinking water. After a short while, his 'friends' had suddenly visited for the reason of 'needing' him (leeching off him) and for some reason, his 'friends' completely ignored the sun like it was not there at all and talked to Yasuo normally.

"Yasuo, help us with some of that fine wine you have there" 'Friend' A said.

"No problem" Yasuo replied, though he was confused, he chose to ignore it and took out wine from out of nowhere. He kept wine with him at all times, though he only drank water. After giving the 'friend' the wine, he left right away.

"Yasuo, I need some cash" said 'Friend' B.

"No problem."

Like wine, Yasuo also kept money with him at all times, he was quite wealthy. Same situation as 'Friend' A, 'Friend' B left right after he took the money.

"Yo Yasuo, wanna spar?" asked Friend C cheerily.

"Sure" replied Yasuo. Friend C's name was Hugen and was also what Yasuo thought of as his best friend. They had traveled together for many years and through that, they developed what Yasuo thought was a deep friendship. Hugen would always want to spar with Yasuo through swords but without real power, though Yasuo would always win because of his great blocking.

They went to the mansion's yard to spar. As they readied themselves, looking at Hugen's pupils, Yasuo noticed a strange figure that was not of himself. This figure had a strange white mask covering its face that spiraled until it reached its right eye. The eye itself was strange as well, being completely red with a black pupil and having three tomoe patterned around the pupil. Like the sun, he chose to ignore the figure as well and rushed towards Hugen.

At the same time, Hugen who was standing there in daze, suddenly unleashed his full power onto Yasuo. Unprepared, Yasuo who was just dashing towards to dazed Hugen had gotten blasted towards his mansion, destroying everything that contacted Yasuo.

"WHAT THE HELL HUGEN!?" Yasuo screamed in pain. He did not expect Hugen to abruptly bring out his full power and try to randomly injure him. Hugen ignored Yasuo and bolted towards him, slashing down with power that would rival the weight of a million elephants. Though Yasuo only swung his sword, Hugen actually trained his mind and body to be able to be the strongest and defend against the strongest.

Yasuo had great talent in the arts of the sword, especially when it came to blocking, however he lacked strength. When Hugen slashed down, Yasuo dodged randomly to his right, knowing that his friend wouldn't listen to him, he was currently thinking of a way to just survive. Unfortunately for him, Hugen did not miss the next strike, succeeding in almost killing Yasuo.

"Why?" Yasuo croaked with great willpower.

"Friend, I have seen your destiny" Hugen answered.

(A/N: Don't ask how, PLEASE don't ask how. To be honest, I might just completely forget this.)

Yasuo's vision was beginning to blur.

"You will kill, you will suffer, I am merely beginning it for you."

'Ah beginning it, is he?' Yasuo thought as he laughed one last time, though it sounded like he was choking on something.

"Goodbye, my friend."

Yasuo's vision finally fades and he sees the memories of his life. He thought it was really stupid and he himself was really dumb.

At the age of 3, he was orphaned and brought to the army to the train as a soldier, a very young soldier that would become a killing machine.

At the age of 5, he killed and cried to what seemed to be no end.

At the age of 6, he became cold and was remarked as a genius of the sword.

At the age of 7, he slaughtered thousands using his sword.

At the age of 9, he was named the 'Demon of the Battlefield' for his achievements.

At the age of 12, he was exiled and left with nothing but his bloodied sword.

At the age of 14, he met Hugen and became best friends with him, lifting his cold persona and promising never to kill again.

At the age of 18, he was crippled by an assassin and said to never be able use his legs nor arms.

At the age of 26, he made the impossible possible, allowing him to use his limbs once again.

(A/N: Like that one guy from that one anime!)

At the age of 38, he once again mastered the sword.

(A/N: Unlike that one guy from that one anime!)

At the age of 43, he sought immortality for various reasons.

At the age of 67, he died from the hands of his best friend.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yasuo was now crying, crying about his worthlessness.

Then he froze, he was ... crying?

HE WAS CRYING!

"Ah, you've woke up it seems."

A voice that sounded feminine and soothing to the ears ringed.

A voice?

Ah!

A VOICE!

Yasuo tried to speak, but to no avail.

"Please calm down" said the voice and Yasuo did just that. He tried to look around, but all he saw was void and darkness, not even his own body. No one and nothing.

"You, hmm how do I put this? To put simply, you have been chosen to reincarnate by a stroke of luck and you shall be granted a wish to accompany you."

'Do I get to choose where I reincarnate?' Yasuo figured he could ask in his mind since he couldn't ask using his voice. He was unperturbed about the strange fact that he could reincarnate and just ignored it.

"No, unfort- *Cough* Yes, my superior has just informed me that you shall be reincarnated through the highest class. You shall be granted with 3 wishes, the system, 'Ancient Manipulator', unrivaled talent in all subjects and finally, a choice of where to reincarnate." For some reason, the voice had ignored that fact too, well no trouble.

'Oh cool! Does that mean I can reincarnate in one of those cultivation worlds?'

Said (figuratively) Yasuo as he disregarded all the other benefits. Even as a 67 year semi-disabled young old man, he loved cultivation novels to no end and acted extremely childish when it came to it.

"Yes and the 'Ancient Manipulator' will adjust to the world so that you can get maximum benefit. NOW, please choose your three wishes."

'Awesome! Uh, for my first wish grant me complete immortality!'

He always desired immortality so he could continue practicing his sword and drinking his nice, fresh, clean water. (A/N: His 'various reasons' :D)

"That is unfortunately not possible, however, to compensate, you will not die from natural causes."

'That's completely fine! Next, I want a mask that has all the perks that are possible!' Like immortality, he had always wanted to look like a bad ass while hiding his identity so that he could reveal it later and with a mask, he could do just that!

"Your wish shall be granted:

Name - Unnamed (Can Be Named)

(Semi-Sealed) (Can Be Upgraded)

Item: Mask (Accessory) (Equipable)

The item will have the following affects when worn:

1. Bound to User (Yasuo)

2. Unbreakable; (Sealed) (Can Be Upgraded)

3. Self-Regenerating; (24 Hours) (Can Be Upgraded)

4. Impenetrable; (Sealed) (Can Be Upgraded)

5. God of Creation's Blessing - User will heal wounds 10 times faster; (Can Be Upgraded)

6. God of Destruction's Blessing - User will deal 2 times more damage; (Can Be Upgraded)

7. Stealth; (Can Be Upgraded)

14. User requires 5 times less effort to master skills; (Can Be Upgraded)

15. User is able to create their own infinite dimension that is connect to User's soul

Those are all the blessings that can be received with this wish."

The mask that was presented was exactly the same one that the strange figure had when Yasuo looked at Hugen's pupils. However, He completely ignored that fact as he was too excited to be transported to a cultivation world.

(A/N: Look at the book cover or if you are too lazy, Obito's mask but white and 'cooler' if you will)

'Woah! That seems like one of those stupid overpowered things that those main characters get to make themselves even more overpowered! Awesome!' said Yasuo.

"Please just state your last wish before I send you to another world."

Now the voice seemed tired. Was it because of the mask?

Heh, I want a better ..... wait what are you?

Hold! You can read my thoughts! SHIT!

"Ah! Seems like you finally realized that! Heh, I am the Lesser Goddess of Reincarnation, Vyra!" she said grandly like she was trying to show off to ME, a dead person.

'Oh! The Lesser Goddess of Reincarnation, Vyra! Wait, who's that, and lesser goddess?'
