Prior to the childhood flashback arc, we strictly followed Raul POV and it seemed like he's some sort of reincarnator chosen by the Goddess in chapter 1 where he returns to her after death and retains memory and power and shit and aired his grievances.
Now we have Vicky's POV where we see Raul speaking not like a child his age, knowing how to handle power struggle and corruption in the court and such.
And this chapter we see Raul's inner thought bubbles and he's definitely not thinking like an reincarnator but it's also definitely not a child's thought either.
So what's his deal?
