MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Vampire God Chapter 2 Hazriel

Utilizing the help of her artificial intelligence 'Nemesis', Hazriel observed her intended spot from a distance of one galactic kilometer.
The person she sought was a Tier 1 human destined to meet his end today. The events tied to his demise were intricate, yet when her own AI gave a breakdown, she pushed the details aside and started examining the surroundings.
A festival was happening close by, with firecrackers exploding overhead in vibrant hues and lanterns glowing with candles drifting upward. She gazed at the lively celebrations for a moment, biding her time for the inevitable assault meant to happen near there.
Hazriel examined Max, who appeared as a plump man still in his youthful years but hiding striking good looks beneath the excess weight.
His features were balanced, his eyes broad and a striking black tone matching his locks and brows. Should he possess a sharper chin and a slimmer build, he might pass for an alluring figure she'd confuse with a noble seraph, yet sadly, the fellow seemed to neglect his physique properly.
She delved a bit further, assessing his bodily traits, where she quickly noticed his defect.
His mana channels were obstructed and harmed; it was fixable with enough time, but in basic groups like those of humans, such folks were typically shunned or sidelined as the feeble.
In a world where solely the mighty could aid the collective welfare, people like him often endured a tough existence, though she was aware of his sibling and with that presence, the youth shouldn't have suffered a rough early life. Intrigued, she delved into his history.
She commanded her artificial intelligence to retrieve the young man's background, absorbing it immediately, and it matched her anticipations closely.
Born with sharp wits and some innate skill, he enjoyed a pampered youth full of indulgences provided by his brother, allowing him to idle about as he pleased.
Viewing his brother as an ideal, Max labored diligently during his teen years and gained swift accomplishments, earning him the labels of genius and prodigy at a tender age.
His destiny shifted when he stumbled into a VR pod built to hold his brother's potent mana, resulting in ruined and wrecked mana routes, sealing his path forever.
Though it wasn't obvious on the mana-free world that Earth was prior to the initial awakening, after the mana veil lifted and all could harness mana, Max's impairment surfaced.
He entered life with a sense of inferiority, and others piled on his struggles due to it. Still, initially, he resisted. She could respect that spirit.
Deceived by his close ones, rejected by society as a feeble sort and 'manaless trash', Max's spirit eroded gradually until he turned into a hollow version of himself and settled into a routine office role.
"Nemesis, what is his karmic value? Does his soul qualify for time-soul reversion?" Hazriel questioned in a resolute tone.
"His soul's karmic value in this timeline stands at 0.000000000000000000001, qualifying for time-soul reversion for a price of 100 divine essence," responded Nemesis, the AI.
Hazriel flinched at the expense, as an entire divine essence represented a hefty sum even for her, but she was indebted to Rudra Rajput, and aiding his sibling would clear that obligation.
Hazriel wiped out Max's history.
His destiny unraveled before her, a sequence of visions linking one to the next. She might have viewed sharper scenes, including possible divergences, if she'd kept her sight active, but in her present concealed form, this was the limit.
Hazriel viewed Max's future trajectory once she granted him another shot at existence and returned him to the day prior to this basic world's first awakening, and it boiled down to this.
------
The boy rights his wrongs and makes amends with his brother while dumping all the toxic people in his life before they wronged them.
He tries hard to succeed as an adventurer and advances to tier 2 instead of being stuck at tier 1 like this life.
After finding a passion for combat studies he becomes a world renowned combat analyst and commentator for gladiator sports.
He dies a happy man with no wife or children of his own.
That was all.
------
Hazriel felt no shock at how Max's life would unfold; the majority who experienced rebirth couldn't alter the cosmic timeline much, which explained why the queen permitted souls with tiny karmic values to reincarnate at such an outrageous fee.
Yet, with a subtle push toward the proper path, this outcome held a slim chance to veer into a superior direction.
After consulting her AI, Hazriel clenched her jaw and shelled out the additional 10 divine essence to guide him correctly, while she awaited the sequence of events culminating in his death.
Precisely as her AI had forecasted, the werewolves demolished his home and seized his family before savagely ending him.
For many, that would mark the finish, but for Max, it heralded a fresh start.
