WIEDERGEBURT: Legend of the Reincarnated Warrior: Volume 1

“So it’s a personal problem,” I guessed. Fay nodded. Rubbing my nose as I studied the girl before me, I came to a decision. “Okay. I’ll let you join me while I’m training.”
“Really?” Fay perked up.
“Yes.” I nodded, and then raised a hand before she could thank me. “However, I am going to need you to get several supplies. Part of my training involves using alchemy pills and these weighted clothes you see me wearing. I don’t have the money to provide these for you, so you’ll have to provide them yourself.”
Fay couldn’t nod fast enough. “Don’t worry. The Valstine Family may not be what it once was, but so long as I’m not forced to spend too much, I can probably afford to buy the materials.”
“Okay then.” Smiling, I reached out and offered her my hand. “I guess you and I will be getting stronger together from now on.”
“Yes! I’m looking forward to it!” With a smile that reminded me of sunflowers blooming at the first rays of light, Fay reached out and clasped my hand.
Our partnership was born that day, but I had no idea what sort of trials, troubles, and tribulations it would bring. Then again, given what this partnership would eventually mean to me, all the issues she and I would face were minuscule in comparison.

For those who are newcomers to my stories, my name is Brandon Varnell. I won’t say I’m a great writer, but I enjoy writing more than anything else in this world. For the readers who are returning, welcome back.
I hope everyone enjoyed the first volume of my latest series. WIEDERGEBURT: Legend of the Reincarnated Warrior is my first attempt at writing a wuxia/xianxia story. If you don’t know what that is, it is a genre of Chinese web novel that involves a unique magic cultivation system where people gain power through cultivating the energies of the heavens and earth to break through various levels of power. My cultivation system is very basic. Because I still don’t have much confidence in my ability to write something like this, I decided not to focus too much on cultivation and focus more on world building and character development.
I haven’t read that many wuxia/xianxia series yet. I only discovered the genre about three years ago and began going down this slippery slope like any other adept. So far, the novels I have read are Battle Through the Heavens, Wu Dong Qian Kun, Blue Phoenix, Douluo Dalu, and Against the Gods—though I have recently put Against the Gods on hiatus because I received some spoilers that pissed me off. I plan on waiting for the series to be completed before going back to it.
… Anyway, the long and short of it is that I haven’t read that many wuxia stories yet. These series tend to be ridiculously long, spanning several thousand chapters and numerous volumes. However, I have fallen so in love with them that I wanted to try my hand at writing one. Like I said, I don’t think I did a very good job on the cultivation front. I’m still learning the ins and outs of everything, but I will hopefully improve as time goes on. I hope I can count on your support while I keep working hard to get better.
As you have probably guessed, this is going to be one of my longer series. Volume 1 focuses heavily on developing my protagonist, Eryk Veiger, introducing various aspects about the world, the characters, and beginning to set up the harem. Speaking of, I wanted to mention that YES, this will be a harem series. If you dislike the idea of one man with multiple spouses, I would highly suggest you stop reading at volume 1. While the harem won’t become solidified for at least several volumes because I like slow-burn romances where characters develop feelings over time, I can tell you that it will happen.
As you probably also noticed, this series involves two separate timelines. There is the present and the past/future timeline, which I show through a series of flashback/dream sequences. Most light novels and web novels will have a volume or two that showcases the protagonist’s past, but I always found that annoying, so I wanted to try something different. Throughout this series, I will show you what happened to Eryk in his previous life. This is being done for a number of reasons. First, I want everyone to know where Eryk came from so you can understand how he became the man he is today. This is important because Eryk is a pretty powerful guy. I would even say he’s overpowered, so I thought showing how he became that way would help lessen his OP-ness.
The second reason is because I wanted to write sex scenes, but I didn’t want to destroy the character interactions and relationship building. Right now, while Eryk loves Kari, Kari does not even really know who Eryk is. She isn’t going to drop her panties for him just because he’s the protagonist. I plan on slowly building the relationship between Eryk, Kari, and the other women that will eventually enter his life. And because I didn’t want to ruin the relationship building, I decided to show you all Eryk’s past so I can add in some sex scenes without that interference. Yes, I’m a perv who enjoys writing sex scenes and didn’t feel like waiting.
Before I head off, I want to take this opportunity to thank my editor for helping me fix this manuscript. She’s awesome, and I am always grateful for her help.
I also want to thank my new artist. I met Mykkel at Anime Matsuri in Texas. She had a table close to mine, saw my banners, and asked me if I had any hentai. I like to think it was the start of a beautiful friendship. Her artwork is some of the best I’ve seen, and I was really impressed with her style. I’m so grateful she agreed to work with me and hope we can continue working together.
Finally, I want to thank you readers. For the new readers who are giving me a chance, thank you so much. I hope you enjoyed this volume. For the readers who have been following my stories for awhile now, I can never thank you enough. I can only write like this because of your continued support. You are the most amazing people in the entire world, and I am incredibly grateful to you all.
This afterword is getting kind of long, so I will end things here. I hope all of you enjoyed this first volume and will come back for volume 2, which is currently available on pre order! Please consider pre ordering a copy now. Pre orders really help build hype.
