Let's start

Soon the statue's stone eyes flicker to life. Its gaze snaps into focus, and its stone lips curl into a gentle smile. The sound of soft creaking echoes through the air as the statue's stone limbs flex, shaking off the weight of centuries, The statue speaks its first words in millennia, its voice like the rustling of leaves

Goddess of time Chronos

You are finally here my child

Chronos's stone skin transforms into radiant, glowing flesh. Her hair flows like silver moonbeams, and her eyes shine with a soft, ethereal light. She laughs, a sound that echoes off the walls, filling the night air with wonder, she spreads her pure white wings which can cover half of the world in their shadow and stood tall in front of Taehyung

Goddess of time Chronos

Taehyung, your soul has been chosen for a rare gift *soft and gentle voice*

. A radiant goddess stood before him, her ethereal beauty mesmerizing. She introduced herself as the Guardian of Time and revealed that Tae's ancestors were once royalty, blessed with special abilities.

Past Taehyung

A gift? Why?

Goddess of time Chronos

*Expression turned sympathetic* Your skill in manipulation was...unrefined, to say the least, you were not able to use it

Note - from the start of this world every member of the royal family possesses a magic skill, and some with higher bloodline possess more than one skill. In his previous life Taehyung possessed manipulation skill however he wasn't able to use it which became a main cause of his parents and society's hate towards him Hope I made it clear if there are any questions please comment on it

Goddess of time Chronos

However, I sense a deeper reason for your rebirth. You see, Taehyung, your royal ancestor, King Park Arin, was a just and fair ruler, beloved by his people and blessed by the gods

Past Taehyung

**eyes widened in surprise

Past Taehyung

King Park Arin? I've heard stories, but I never thought...

Goddess of time Chronos

**nodded Yes, his legacy lives on through you. As the firstborn of his lineage, you are the recipient of a unique gift, passed down through generations. King Arin's goodness and wisdom pleased the gods, and they granted a blessing: every firstborn of his family would possess a special gift, a spark of the divine

Taehyung's mind reeled after Goddess startling revelation, his eyes wide with disbelief as the goddess continued,

Goddess of time Chronos

Taehyung, your family's legacy continues through you, as the firstborn of your line you possess that gift

Goddess of time Chronos

Your manipulation skills were a shadow of this gift, a mere echo of what could have been. But now, I offer you a new path. You shall wield the power of fire magic, a gift worthy of your ancestor's legacy

Past Taehyung
