PoV----- "What the..." I muttered to myself while looking around, all I see is a field of darkness. "Huh, what the, why can''t I move my body?" I muttered to myself once more while looking down to my body, but I can''t look down, or to be exact, I can''t feel my neck. Speaking of which, I can''t even feel or see my body, it''s a weird feeling, like having a phantom limb, but this time your whole body is gone, that brought me to one conclusion. "So I died, huh?" I muttered to myself once more while trying to remember how I died, until it finally hit me. -----a few hours back----- I was walking to school as usual, but on my way there, my mind drifts off. Until suddenly, I felt a stab on my chest area where my heart was, when I looked down, I saw a man in a black jersey holding a knife that''s inserted into my heart. All I could think of at that time is: ''So this is how I die, huh, what a stupid way of dying.'' While thinking so, my body went cold and my mind drifted off once more -----Back to the present----- ''So I guess I just need to wait until some kind of being takes my soul, huh.'' I thought to myself while gazing back into the field of darkness, trying to see what''s on the other side, until suddenly a feminine voice sound out. "Fufu, you''re one interesting mortal, to know that you just died, but could still remain calm." Startled, I looked to the source of the voice and found a woman standing there. With a long white robe that reached her foot, silver, glimmering hair that looks as smooth as silk, big round eyes with blue pupils. Realizing I was gazing all this time, I turned my gaze away, if I still had a face, it would be quite red right now. The woman then giggled with a voice that sounds like silver bells and proceed to talk. "So, do you remember everything?" After being asked that, I proceed to seek out my memories. After a few minutes, I proceeded to answer her. "Ah, thank you for reminding me, my name is Ten''no Yuki, 15 years old, died from a stab to the heart, so what might you need for me... God?" I said with a sigh. The woman was surprised before showing a sweet, bright smile. "So you catch on quick, may I know how you deduced that I was God?" After thinking for a while, I replied to God. "I managed to deduce it because of 2 reasons, one, you didn''t just take my soul, so that means you weren''t meaning to take it in the first place, two, this looks just like a clich¨¦ scene from the novels on Earth." I said to the woman expressionlessly. She then blinked a few time before laughing while hugging her stomach. "Hahaha, really? You thought I was God because I didn''t take your soul and because of a book from your world? Well, your deduction is correct, my name is If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.Virs, The Goddess of Life and Death and my jurisdiction is in another world called Viria." I blinked a few times, surprised that she was the Goddess of Life and Death, and watched over another world to. "So what do you need from me?" "I need you to go to my world, and be my Champion, or in other words, be my representative in a fight against other God''s Champions" "Oh, I already died, and it''s not like I have another choice, so tell me how will this work." I answered without hesitation. Virs looks surprised, because she is staring wide-eyed at me, before regaining her composure and answering me. "That''s a quick answer, so this is how it works, I will reincarnate you into a baby with some Gifts that I will bestow to you of your choice, you get 3 choices, your power will have some restriction based on what it is, and it can''t involve changing talents and luck, because I can''t afford to modify your soul that much, any questions?" "Yes, what kind of world am I reincarnating in, What kind of race is there, and can you explain your world landscape and state of races?" "Good questions, you will be sent to a world of sword and magic with the medievel level of technology and with your so-called RPG like feature. there is the human, Demi-Human, Elves, Dwarves, Draconians, Dragons, Demons, Celestials, Mix-Breeds, and Ancient or Extinct Races. the world is split into 5 great continents, the Demon Continent, ruled by the Demons, the Human Continent, ruled by the Humans, the Great Nature Continent, ruled by the Council of Demi-Humans and Elves, the Great Mountain Continent, ruled by the Draconians, Dragons and Celestials, and finally, the Central Continent, where all kinds of great monsters resides." "Huh, what kinds of magic are there?" "For that, you must find out yourself." Virs said while smirking "Fine then, so I should choose my 3 Gifts..." After pondering for about 10 minutes, Yuki finally gave Virs his answer "First, I want the ability to keep all kinds of weapon in a special space where I can leave or take my weapons out of in an instantaneous speed, second, an ability to have a special space in my mind to train where time runs faster, and lastly teach me a technique that will make me stronger, and one that allows me to train even when I''m an infant if you could." Vira blankly stared at Yuki for a moment before laughing. "Fufu, interesting, I will grant them to you. You will find out the restriction on your own, now, may we meet again." As she said that, she kissed my forehead, then I was enveloped by white light as she waved at me All I could think of at that time is how will my life go this time, will it be filled with carnage once more? -----Prologue End----- A1 Chapter 1: Reincarnation and Birth Arc 1: Growth Arc Chapter 1: Reincarnation and Birth -----Yuki''s PoV----- Once again, my view is filled with darkness, but this time I know that I was reincarnated because of the slimy things surrounding me, but It doesn''t feel so bad. I remember Virs said that there''s RPG like feature, so I said ''Status'' in my mind ???

''Huh, so she really did give me these skills.'' Moments after thinking that, I felt my body getting pushed, I know It''s the moment of my birth so I''m trying to help move my body to make it easier for my new mother to give birth to me. Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings. But suddenly, a few moments before getting out, I have the urge to cry. Because I have the mind of a 15 years old, I feel it''s quite shameful to cry, but because I don''t want my new parents worry, I let myself cry. -----Mother PoV----- "Uwaaaaahhh" With that scream as my que, I let my body relax, turning my head to the baby that my maid is holding, I reached out my hand to him. "Congratulation m''lady, it''s a healthy boy." Saying that, my maid hand my baby that has calmed down rather quickly, to me, looking down to him from my embrace, I noticed his golden-blonde hair that looks like mine, and his golden pupils that''s filled with curiosity that looks identical to his father''s. Suddenly, rushing foot steps could be heard followed by the sound of a door pushed open, when I looked up from my baby, I saw my husband''s worried face that let out a sigh of relief when he saw me and my- our baby. "Felicia, can I hold him?" My husband asked while looking at me and my baby. Nodding, I hand our baby to him. Holding our baby, my husband smiled, then I asked. "What should we name him, Aaron?" "Name... his golden hair and eyes makes him look like the sun, so let''s name him Sol'' Lux of Dractum Household." My husband announced while looking at me and our little baby that''s already sound asleep. Smiling, we just sat in the room for a while before I was brought to my room with my baby while my husband reluctantly went back to work. -----Chapter 1 End----- Chapter 2: Skills Chapter 2: Skills -----Sol''s PoV----- Right now I''m in bed with my new mother, that''s currently sleeping, to my left, right now I should recheck my skills.

Seeing the skill descriptions, I immediately start testing it. First, I tried to use the¡¶Weapon Space¡·, I can sense the existense of the space, but sadly as I have no weapons, I can''t use it. Next, I tried using¡¶Mind Space Domain¡·, suddenly my mind turned blank, and in the next moment, I''m in a dark space, I''m guessing this is the Domain''s Space, but there''s one problem. Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there. ''This space needs some buildings and light'' The moment I thought that, the space is filled with light, and buildings from earth starts popping out, for some reason, even if the light suddenly showed up, my eyes didn''t hurt. I then tried to experiment, first, I willed for a katana on my right hand and a puppet infront of me to show up, then, I willed for the puppet to punch me, I feel no pain, then I willed for me to be able to feel pain, then I willed the puppet to punch me again, and I felt it. And then from that I drew a conclusion. "In this space, I''m omnipotent." After drawing that conclusion, I decided to exit my Domain. After leaving my Domain, I started the ¡¶Universal Cosmic Breathing Technique¡·, the reason I didn''t do it in my Domain is because it only affects the mind, so even if I try training my body in that space, I won''t improve in the real world. Starting the breathing technique, I tried to empty my mind and do the breathing circulation as the memory given by Virs showed me. After a few trial and error, I finally manage to do the breathing technique correctly, It felt like my soul is slipping out of my body and I closed my eyes, after a few moments, my soul completely slipped out, but when I opened my eyes, I saw a breath taking view. Stars and planets everywhere, from big to small, with all kinds of colors, I tried willing my soul closer to the closest planet, it was a beautiful small red planet. Entering it, I felt an oppresive feeling from the planet, it''s strong, but my soul can handle it. After who knows how long, my soul can finally take on the oppresive feeling, I tried willing my soul to move around the planet, and I could, but it feels heavy, so I tried training my soul to handle this pressure. After moving around for quite a while, I finally manage to handle the pressure even while moving. Suddenly, the planet rumbled and I can see a temple suddenly coming out of the planet, it''s as red and as beautiful as the planet. After the rumbling stopped, I tried entering the temple. What''s inside surprised me, there''s only pillars and steps that leads up to a platform where a tome is stuck into. After willing my soul to go up the stairs to the platform, I tried to will the tome to open and it did, what''s written inside the tome is surprisingly an attacking formation technique called¡¶9 Planets Allignment¡·, it uses 9 weapons as formation marks that''s alligned that will shoot a beam of star energy. The strength of the formation is based on the amount of star energy the weapons that''s used as markings could handle. After reading and memorising it, I willed my soul to return to my body. -----Chapter 2 End----- Chapter 3&4: Growing Up Chapter 3&4: Growing Up -----Sol''s PoV----- Soon after my soul got back to my body, my mother gently picked me up and carried me around the house where I saw my father, siblings, house guards, and maids. It seems the fact that my mother, Felicia, taking care of her baby, in this case me, is quite rare, because the house maids keeps offering to take care of me but keep getting shot down by my the same reply from mother. "I can do it, and Sol is a quiet child." I then later found out the name of my families, my father, Aaron, is the master of Dractum household, my elder brother, Joseph, is the first child and son, and my elder sister, Sophia, the second child and first daughter. After that, I just do what babies do, sleep, eat, and excre- ehem, after what I think must be the second month, I start crawling, everyone who saw me crawling was surprised that I crawled so quickly. After I managed to crawl, I tried going to the library, sadly, I can''t read the words, so I had my mother read a book for me, she was surprised at first, but in the end she did read a book for me and I managed to read all the words in the third month. After the fourth month, I managed to talk when my mom was carrying me, and I said "Mom." My mom was surprised at first, but then she start hugging me and laughing happily, saying how she''s proud of me, I get a warm feeling in my heart when she said that, nobody ever praised me like she did in my past life. After she finished hugging and laughing, she brough me to father and my siblings to boast about it, then they asked me to call them, so I did it. During my sixth month, I can walk and I start reading books in the house library, it''s really large, and I spend most of my time there. Ofcourse during those six months I didn''t forget to practice the breathing techniques. In the library, I learned more of the world, the ruling of this world goes like this: The human kingdom is called Earlshide Kingdom in the continent of Orion in the East, demon kingdom is called Daemon Kingdom in the continent of Tora in the West, demi-human and elves are ruled by the Great Nature Council in the continent of Silva in the South, draconians and celestials are ruled by the Great Mountain Council in the continent of Sacra in the North, and the Central Continent with no ruler. And because of the constant war and monster attacks, power is regarded highly. After that, I found out more about magic, there is 7 basic elements, and 4 great elements. The basic elements are made out of: Lightning, Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Darkness and Light elements While the great elements are made out of: Space-Time, Life, Death/Necromancy, and Void element The basic elements are learnable by all types of people as long as you can do magic, but if your affinity is weak, the most you can reach is beginner lvl 1, while the great elements are only learnable if you have the affinity with it and extremely rare. There is two other special element, one that is only learnable by the people of the church called Divine element, not much is known about it. To learn it you need to join the church, have faith towards the gods, and a holy heart. And another that is only learnable to the people on the road of carnage called Destruction element, once again, not much is known about it except for the holder of this element will bring carnage to where ever the holder go. It is said to only be learnable by people who has the heart that bring out destruction and death. This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon. My mind keeps thinking of the Destruction element, worried and attracted to it at the same time. To know one''s affinity, you will be tested on the age of 8, because it is said to be the moment when their element will start being more active. I can''t wait to see what element I can hold. ---------------------------------------------------- After the first six months, I spent the rest of the year by spending time with my family, training and reading the books in the library, it wasn''t so bad. During my birthday, I asked for something to my father for the first time. "Father, can you let me have some weapons to train in?" my family was surprised that I wanted to train with weapons because of the fact that I like to read so much. But then they calmed down and my father replied to my question. "We will let you choose a weapon to train in as long as you becareful." "Can I have one of each type of weapon?" My family was once again surprised by my request, but they nonetheless, grant by request which I thanked them for. The next day I was brought to see the weapons that''s available in the household at the weapon storage area. There, I can find weapons ranging from swords and sabers to bows and even scythes and knuckles. I then proceed to have the guards help me bring one of each weapon to the garden, I looked for a suitable place out of range from mother''s garden, the last time Joseph ruined mother''s garden was the first time I see lifelessnes in his eyes. After the guards put the weapons down and left, I made sure that nobody was around to see my training. After confirming no one''s around, I brought the weapons into my skill¡¶Weapon Space¡·, so I then start training regimen. I start by doing unarmed combat with the training dummy using gauntlets and foot blades, thanks to my past world knowledge, I can do martial arts from Tai Chi to Boxing. After exhausting myself, I rested for an hour and had lunch with my family before finishing my training with dual wielding sword and saber at the same time, it was quite hard because of how diffrent the weapons are, but I managed. The next day I trained with throwing daggers and whips, I still question if it was my mother who left the whip in the storage. After perfecting my use over the whip and throwing daggers, I moved to archery. In the archery range, I proceed to try shoot the arrows directly into the red dot. After I manage to do it 5 times consecutively, I start trying to do it while running with the same target in mind. After that I repeated it with double crossbows, the archery wasn''t hard thanks to me having a high dectirity in the first place. The training took half a day, so I went to have lunch with my family and spend the rest of the day with them, it''s fun to have a family. ''after mastering all the weapons, I will spend more time with them'' I thought to myself. While proceeding to my room. The rest of the week was used to get myself to master all the weapons available. After the week ended, I shortened my training time so I can spend my time with my family and so I can read the rest of the books in the household library. It''s rather surprising, in my past life, I never really read books, or rather I don''t have the chance to read any interesting books. -----Chapter 3&4 End----- A/N: if you want to question why the MC is getting used to the weapons so quickly, it''s because in his past life he already mastered all those weapons, so don''t ask again, because it''s spoilery Chapter 4.5: Mothers Story - Interlude Chapter 4.5: Mother''s Story - Interlude -----Felicia''s PoV----- My name is Felicia Dractum, a Moon Elf, I used to be an A Rank adventures before I married into the Dractum household. I met Aaron during one of my adventure, I was attacked by bandits, I wouldn''t be troubled if I was in good shape, sadly I wasn''t and the bandits cornered me. That''s when Aaron suddenly showed up, beating the bandits easily and saving me, it was love at first sight, I didn''t know what to say to him. But suddenly after finishing the bandits off, he walked to me and knelt with one leg and said in a clear, sincere voice. "I love you, will you please marry me?" I was surprised by the sudden confession, but only for a moment before smiling and nodding to him slowly. He then brought me to his household, I was surprised at first, but I got used to it right away. In the household, I met Aaron''s parents, they look extremely powerful. When Aaron explained to them and showed me to his parents, I was surprised they weren''t angry, on the contrary, they''re smiling helplessly, looks like their son''s crazy antics are normal to them. After that, we got married and had Joseph and Sophia, they were good children, but I feel like Sol, our third child is a bit more special. I''m not being choosers over my children, I''m happy with every each one of them, but I keep getting the feeling that Sol is more than he seems to be. And my feelings were proven correct by how he acts. When he is a baby, he never causes troubles, he cries only when he is hungry or when he needs to excre- ahem, needs something. A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation. He managed to crawl in two months, read in three months and walk steadily in six, as his mother, I feel really proud of his achievements. He likes to read books in the library alone, but he still remembers to spend time with his family. He rarely talks when you don''t say anything to him, almost never. But one time, during his first birthday, he requested something. "Father, can you let me have some weapons to train in?" We were surprised by his question, so we discussed it together and decided to let him have a weapon as long as he''ll be careful. But what he said next was astonishing. "Can I have one of each weapon?" We didn''t know what to say, so we looked at each other, and Aaron just nodded. During one of his training, I saw him earnestly train using all kinds of weapon. But what surprised me is how he fights, he fought fluently, almost like dancing, a very deadly one. He seems very natural using those weapons, even bows, he''s so good that it''s scary, but nonetheless he is my son, and I will support him as long as he''s fine. After a week, Sol reduced his training time, he now trains only during the morning, he spent the rest of the day with everyone in the household, reading books, playing, talking or he just continue his training. One word that can describe him is Mature, but I keep getting the feeling he''s hiding something, is this a mother''s instinct? I don''t know what a one year old could be hiding, but if he is hiding something, I will not ask, I believe he will tell us when he thinks it is the right time. -----Chapter 4.5 End----- Chapter 5: Entering The Forest Chapter 5: Entering The Forest -----Sol''s PoV----- Since it has been a while, I decided to check my status and skills.

It looks like my training was worth it, my stats increased and I got a new skill. I decided to go play with Joseph-Oniisama and Sophia-Oneesama. After looking and asking around, I finally found them at the back garden near the gate to the¡¶Shadow Forest¡·. Mother and Father already warned us not to enter the forest because ferocious beasts lives there. What makes them diffrent from normal animals is how they can absorb the energy in the air. But what Joseph-Oniisama said surprised me. "Hey, Sol, me and Sophia are going to enter the forest, do you want to come along?" If I was going alone, I would''ve gone in there, but Joseph-Oniisama and Sophia-Oneesama haven''t gone through real battles yet, so I''m worried about them. "Joseph-Oniisama, didn''t Father and Mother already warned us not to enter because of the ferocious that lurks inside?" "Haha, don''t worry, me and Sophia can protect ourselves." "Then atleast bring a few guards with you." "They''ll just bring us to Father and Mother." Looking at them slightly worried, I sighed and said in a firm tone. "I''m telling Father and Mother." I tried to turn around and run to our parents, but I suddenly felt a hand holding my shoulder and lifting me up. "Let me go!" I demanded to my brother that lifted me up his shoulder, my brother is 8, so he is big and strong enough to lift me. "Sol, you don''t need to worry, we''ll just walk around the forest for a half an hour then come back." Sophia-Oneesama said with a sincere tone. I gazed at her eyes for a moment before reluctantly nodding. So we then proceed to enter the forest where ferocious beast reside. -----Chapter 5 End----- A/N: -Oniisama wasn''t my idea, my advisor gave me the idea, well, some of my ideas are born thanks to my advisor kekek Chapter 6: First Battle Chapter 6: First Battle -----Sol''s PoV----- Right now I''m walking through the forest with Joseph-Oniisama and Sophia-Oneesama. It has already been 15 minutes, I feel like being watched, something is diffinitely following us. I turned to look at my brother and sister. Joseph-Oniisama is humming while walking and looking around. While Sophia-Oneesama is holding my hand while following Joseph-Oniisama. "Oneesama, why are we even going into the Forest?" I asked her in a meek tone. "I am just keeping watch over our brother so that he won''t do anything reckless, and I''m sorry that you were caught into this. I''ll make you some sweets later when we get back." Sophia-Oneesama''s sweets are really delicious, even I have to admit that, so I just weakly nodded as a response. After another 15 minutes, Joseph-Oniisama announced to us. "Ok, it''s already half an hour, so as promised, let go back home." After he said that, I prepared to turn around. But suddenly, something came out of the bushes. It was something that looks like a tiger, but with blood red eyes filled with savagery, a characteristic of ferocious beasts. Looking at it, I felt cold sweat running down my back. I turned to look at Joseph-Oniisama and Sophia-Oneesama, their face is pale white. The tiger then pounced at us, that caused them to snap back to reality. Oniisama drew his sword as quickly as possible to stop the tiger, but the tiger just keeps rushing to Oniisama without even flinching, this caused Sophia-Oneesama to reflexively scream. "Joseph-Niisama!!!" Sophia-Oneesama''s sudden scream caught the tiger attention and caused it to switch target and pounced at her. Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon. I then moved to intercept the tiger by summoning my whip from my¡¶Weapon Space¡·. Even if my whip is longer than me, I still manage to wield it perfectly because of my mastery, so I threw the whip forward at the tiger and did a whip crack. The tiger then noticed me and pounced at me, while I ran deeper into the forest. After getting 10 meters away from Oniisama and Oneesama, I stopped and faced the tiger. The tiger was surprised by my sudden stop and stayed vigilant. I equipped my gauntlets and leg blades, changed my whip to my sword and blade, then I rushed straight to the tiger. The tiger then pounced at me, but I managed to evade it by letting my weight focus on my back, then I stab the tiger''s stomach with my blade. {A/N: yes people, it''s the MATRIX!!!} However, the could not cut the tiger''s mane. The tiger then landed and turned around to pounce at me once more, but I evaded again by dodging to the right. I repeatedly dodge the tiger''s repeated charges for a 10 minutes. My stamina is running low, and I already have a few bruises and cuts on my body because I failes to dodge a few attacks. I cursed my weak body under my rough breath and decided to activate my secret weapon. Activating the formation, a line of weapon starts to light up like starlight on the road to Oniisama and Oneesama and suddenly a bright beam made out of star energy shot right through the ferocious tiger and continued on. I can even feel the emitted deadly energy when I''m not hit by it, it made cold sweat trickle down my back. But something weird happend, at the end of the star energy beam, there''s a tombstone that starts shining and glittering when hit by the energy beam. -----Chapter 6 End----- Chapter 7: Legacy Inheritor Chapter 7: Legacy Inheritor -----Third Person PoV----- While staring at the tombstone slightly in a daze, Sol was slowly dragging his battered body to it. Reaching the tombstone, Sol saw that the tombstone is blank, he then reached out his hand to it, as if he was in a trance. After Sol touched the tombstone, it suddenly let out a bright flash of light before dimming. Now the supposedly blank tombstone that has dimmed, have words written on it that says.
Thou art with the Power to bend Energy of Stars to thy will, by chancing upon hither, thou havest obtained the right to inherit my legacy. That which has the strength to control every Star Energy, from the weakest to the strongest, The Legacy of the Divine Star. Within this tombstone containeth the Star Energy, to be the next Inheritor as Fate haveth willed it, absorb it thou must.
Stunned, Sol chose to accept this so-called Legacy and absorbed the star energy within the tombstone while thinking. ''As long as you give me the power to help the poeple I care about, I won''t even mind signing a deal with the devil himself after all I have done.'' Absorbing the star energy, Sol felt as if he was in a warm embrace of his mother and let his body go limp. After all his fatigue and bruises, it''s no wonder that Sol would faint, especially with his body of a 1 year old boy. After Sol fainted, an astonishing change occured on his body, his already tender skin became even more tender, almost like a new born''s skin, his golden hair became glittering silver colored like the stars in the skies itself, and star energy starts entering his body to strengthen it. This process lasted for 15 minutes before stopping. Not long after, a group of people in Dractum guard uniform entered the area and found Sol. Because of the star energy''s nourishment to his body, the scars and bruises from the fight have long disappeared. But because Sol''s hair became glittering silver colored, they almost thought he was someone else if it wasn''t for his 1 year old body. -----Felicia''s PoV----- After hearing Joseph and Sophia''s story about when they went to the¡¶Shadow Forest¡·and how Sol sacrificed himself to divert the ferocious tiger''s attention, I almost faint, but I manage to keep my calm and a team of the household guards to look for Sol. I then punished both Joseph and Sophia for going to the forest and especially for bringing their 1 year old brother with them there. After who knows how long, the guards came back carrying an unconcious boy with glittering silver haired boy. I instinctively knew that it was my son, I do not care about what happened to his hair as long as he is fine. I then carry Sol back to his room after ordering a house maid closest to me and have her get a doctor to check on Sol. He might not have any bruise on his body, but it''s better safe than sorry. While the doctor is checking up on Sol, I decided to resume Joseph and Sophia''s punishment. -----Third Person PoV----- At the room where Joseph and Sophia is being punished, muffled scream and cries of suffering could be heard inside. No maids can be seen near this room, and even the guards that is guarding this room is so stiff they look like statues. Sol will one day learn from his siblings about how scary her mother''s punishment could be, but that will be a story for another time. -----Sol''s PoV----- Opening my eyes, I see the usual ceiling of my room and the usual feeling of my bed on my back. Lifting my body back up and looking around the room, I realised I''m back inside my room in the Dractum household. This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.I then decided to check my status. [

I was stunned by the amount of increased stats, I vaguely remember a feeling of something entering my body when I was unconcious, it must have something to do with the Legacy, so I won''t worry much. I then decided to check my skills.

Mythical Class Skill
Looking at the new skills the Legacy gave me, I was pleasently surprised. Especially the¡¶Divine Star Materialisation¡·skill, I already know what type of weapon I will choose, and I can''t wait to use this skill -----Chapter 7 End----- A/N: I bet you all should know what type of weapon he will choose since he got reincarnated, but because I love making cliffs, I''ll leave it here, Muahahhaha. Chapter 8: New Weapon and A Visitor Chapter 8: New Weapon and A Visitor -----Sol''s PoV----- Sitting on the bed, I focus on feeling the Divine Star energy in the atmosphere. I then caught a reaction, it seems it is quite attracted to me thanks to my Legacy, the energy is really calm, no fluctuation, when it starts making contact with me, it makes me feel somewhat safe. If the past inheritors knew what was happening, their eyes would''ve bulged out of their sockets. Because even with the Legacy, Sol should not have been able to control the Divine Star energy so easily. The Divine Star energy is supposed to be quite wild and dangerous, even for past Divine Star Legacy Inheritors, the cause of this is because of Sol''s affinity with this energy in the first place. After I felt the energy''s reaction, I focused on making the frame and the insides of my weapon on my bed. I proceed on compressing energy within it for as long as I can which caused the weapon to shine a glitter because of the star energy characteristics. After about 15 minutes, I finally reached my limits, my body is soaked by sweat and my hair and clothes are sticking to my body because of that. I noticed that my hair have turned glittering silver colored, I assumed that this is another change the Divine Star Legacy gave me. After the weapon is finished, the shine of the weapon fades and reveals the weapon that I have been making all this time. A Gun, a desert eagle pistol to be exact. I then proceeded to appraise the gun that I just finished, until suddenly an information window showed up in my mind.
Gun/Desert Eagle
Weapon Tier: Rare
A weapon created from a skill using Divine Star Energy based of a weapon from another world, uses energy in the shape of bullets as ammunition.
Receiving this information, I then made a guess and tried to see if I was correct and checked my skill list.

Rare Class Skill
My guess was proven correct, I gained a skill to appraise things, but I''m wondering how can I learn a Rare skill so easily. I decided to just put it in the back of my mind for now and go out and test my gun. But I suddenly remembered that I was unconcious in the forest before I was brough here, so I decided to go and find my mother first since it''s already morning. 5 minutes after searching around the household, I finally heard my mother''s voice, but I can hear another voice mixed with mother''s voice, so I decided to go to the source of mother''s voice. After a few moments of walking, I finally reached the place where the voices are coming from, the drawing room, I''m guessing that mother is attending a guest. So I softly knocked at the door and said. "Mother, I have woken up." No reply came, but suddenly, there''s a sound of rushed foot steps from the other side of the door before the door got swiftly pushed open by my mother who have face brimming with happiness. She then looked around and stopped when she found me. She then rushed to me and picked me up and hugged me, I didn''t resist because I know I must have worried her a lot, so while hugging her back, I said. "Sorry for worrying you mom." "As long as you''re safe, I''m happy Sol." She said while hugging me tighter. I then let my gaze wander around and I spot a women and a little girl with a matching long silver hair looking at our way in wonder from the drawing room mother just left from, so I said. "Mom, what about your guests?" "Ah, yes, sorry about that." Mom said while reentering the drawing room with me in her arms. "It''s fine, why don''t you introduce us to him?" "Sure, Sol, these two are Liza and her 1 year old daughter, Elena. They are from the Fricies household, a household that''s in a friendly relation with us, and they are from a noble household, a duke to be exact, unlike us which is a normal household." "Ah, my name is Sol''Lux Dractum, pleased to make your acquaintance." I then did a bowed my head slightly. "Fufu, no need to be so formal, my name is Liza Fricies, and this is Elena Fricies it''s our pleasure." Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. "...our pleasure..." Elena echoed, they then slightly bowed their head. I was surprised that my parents are friends of a duke household, but then I realized something and asked my mother. "Mother, which kingdom do we live in." "We live in the Earlshide kingdom in the Orion Continent." I was quite surprised, my mom isn''t human, but she lives in a human kingdom. As if reading my mind, Liza said to me. "Don''t worry, the human kingdom doesn''t discriminate against other races, but sometimes a few arrogant nobles might discriminate other races." Liza said with a wry smile. "Thank you, uhhh..." "You can just call me aunt Liza." "Okay aunt Liza." When I said that, aunt Liza made a bright smile. I then turned and said to my mother. "Mother, I''m going back to the courtyard to train." "Why don''t you rest for a bit, you just woke up, your body should be tired." My mother said worriedly, but I replied with a firm tone filled with determination. "No, my strength is still to weak, I noticed after fighting the ferocious tiger, but I promise I will watch over myself." "You''re only 1 year old, but you are already filled with determination, I wish you would be more unrestrained and act more like your age." My mother said with a sad smile. So I said with an apollogetic tone. "I''m sorry mother, I promise I will spend more time with everyone else later on." But suddenly aunt Liza butted in the conversation. "Why don''t you bring little Elena with you, she must be quite bored listening to me and your mother talking." I thought for a bit then replied. "Okay, I''ll watch over her for auntie." Aunt Liza then pushed Elena to me and I offered my hand, but Elena just stopped for a second before proceeding out of the room, I raised an eyebrow at her arrogant act before following her out of the room. Arriving at the courtyard, I secretly brought out my weapons out of the weapon space and start rummaging the pile of weapons to choose a weapon to train in. But suddenly, a Elena''s voice sounded out. "...Why do you train with so much weapon?" "I train using every possible type of weapons, may it be a sword, scythe, bow, or even unarmed combat, I train using all of them." I replied indifferently without turning my back. But she then looked around and once again asked a question. "Why do you train alone? Don''t you have a teacher?" "I like to train alone, I hate disturbance during training time because it disturbs my focus." "Then why did you bring me with you?" "Because auntie, your mother asked me to." She went quite for a second before asking once again. "Do you dislike me?" I stopped rummaging through the weapon pile and turned around and asked indifferently. "What makes you say that?" She then looked down and said. "You never talked to me, the only thing you did was offering me your hand, just like all the other noble kids, all you want is my title as the duke''s daughter and not myself." She said with a hoarse voice, that sounded like she might cry at any second. I was surprised about her thinking process, I''m a reincarnated person, so It''s obvious I was quite mature, she''s a daughter of a duke, but even so, how can her mind mature so quickly? My train of thoughts came to a halt after hearing a sobbing voice, I then turned my focus to Elena and I can see her trying to forcibly hold back her tears. Flustered, I got closer to her and tried to calm her down, but she just pushed my hand away and said. "Don''t try to comfort me, all you people want is my title and not me, I then need comforting from you people." I then forcibly hold her hand and moved my face closer to hers and said in a serious face. "I don''t care about your title as a duke, I just thought that you were arrogant because you just walked out of the room after I offered you my hand." She was surprised, but then quickly calmed down and said. "I''m sorry... but will you be my friend no matter what even if I''m not a duke''s daughter?" I then gave a faint smile and said. "Yes, even if you are a commoner, I will still befriend you." She then cried and dived into my chest while I caressed her hair. After a few minutes of crying, Elena slumped down while I lifted her up on my back and brought her back to the drawing room where my mother and aunt Liza is at. When I reached the drawing room, they were surprised at the sight of me lifting the unconscious Elena on my back. Aunt Liza then decided to bring her back home without asking for any explanation. Mother then went to her room without asking for an explanation either, I appreciate that they didn''t ask anything because I prefer Elena telling the story herself. I then went to the library to read because my training time was used up for accompanying and calming Elena down, but I didn''t regret it, I was happy to help her. -----Chapter 8 End----- A/N: longest chapter I''ve written yet, a compensation for the recent multiple changes on the past chapters. Chapter 9: A Visit to Flumine City Chapter 9: A Visit to Flumine City -----Sol''s PoV----- It has been 4 years since the day I inherited the¡¶Divine Star Legacy¡·and met Elena. After that day, I made a few more type of guns like a machine gun, snipers rifles, submachine guns, and missile launcher. Joseph-Oniisama have also went to a knight military academy in the capital to study. Mother and sister cried a bit, but me and father just encouraged him to do his best. And my schedule have been changed a little bit. I will train during the morning until breakfast, then I will either go read books, spend time with with my family or do mkre training and exercises and have dinner, then I will spend time reading books until it''s time for bed. After the first visit from Elena, she became more open with me and she sometimes even paid a visit, I soon found out that she was quite shy, that''s why she didn''t accept my hand before. She used to watch me intently with mother while I''m training when she paid us a visit, I can focus better now, so I let others see me practice on the condition nobody bothered me if it''s not for an important matter. But suddenly, when we were 3 years old, Elena asked me to train her on using bows, I was quite surprised, but it looks like she wants a way to protect herself, her body isn''t that strong since she is still a daughter of a duke. So I trained her for a month until she can shoot a bow properly then let her train on her own. I must say that she is talented in the art of bows, she learns fast and improves fast. And this year we''re 5 years old, and today is just like another day, until suddenly during breakfast, my mother said. "Sol, do you want to go visit Elena?" I was surprised at mother''s sudden question, so I questioned her back. "What brought this up?" "Well, I''m going to bring your siblings to Flumine city where Sophia will be tested for her Elemental Affinity, she is 8 this year and coincidently, Fricies household is situated at Flumine city, so we can pay a visit to them at the same time." I then thought about it for a moment before answering mother. "I''ll go then, and speaking of which, I haven''t heard what Elemental Affinity Joseph-Oniisama has." "Good, we will leave tomorrow morning, and to answer your question, Joseph have the affinity with earth, but his control over the element is quite weak and he prefer to use it to strengthen his body, that''s why he chose to study at the knight military academy." ''So that''s why Joseph-Oniisama didn''t use magic to fight the ferocious tiger.'' I thought to myself. I then finished my food and proceed to finish my daily activities and went to sleep. The next morning, I changed my usual training clothes to a brown vest over a white shirt and long pants. I then went downstairs to see my mother and sister wearing a pair of dress, while mother is wearing a light green dress, Sophia-Oneesama is wearing an ocean blue dress that matches their eye color. We then went outside and saw brother with the same clothes as me but with a black vest with father and 8 of our household guards. Father sent us with a smile while waving his hand. We then proceed to ride a carriage to Flumine City, the ride took half an hour, I spent time by training using my breathing technique, here''s how my status screen looked like right now.

My stats have been rising considerably, but I still don''t know what my other race is, mother is an elf, so it must have been from father''s line of blood, but since father said nothing, I will naturally wait for him to talk. After what seemed to be about 15 minutes, we finally reached Flumine city, the ride here was quite bumpy, but I naturally got used to it at a price of a sore butt. Paying the entrance fee, we proceeded into the city, there is many medieval buildings, and the road is made out of paved stones. The carriage then kept moving until we abruptly halted when we reached a mansion. Suddenly, the door of the mansion was pushed open and a girl with big round, sky blue eyes, silver, smooth hair and an oval face came out of the mansion, it is the 5 years old Elena, she gave the impression that she will be a stunning woman in the future. Elena then ran towards the carriage with a bright smile while waving an arm and shouting. "Sol~, welcome to my house, thanks for coming to visit us." She then jumped into my chest and hugged me, everytime she paid a visit, she would always hug me atleast once, when I asked why she did that, all I got was. "Hugging you make me feel safe, and It feels really comfortable hugging you." I think it might be the effect of the Divine Star Energy that enhanced my body, but I''m not really sure, and I just think of it as a childish act, so I just shrugged it off. A butler then lead mother and the others away, while Elena brought me to the courtyard so she can show me her archery skill, it feels like a child boasting, so I don''t really mind. Elena then moved to the archery range, while I stood on the sideline to see if she did anything wrong with her form, I always told her to never copy how I do archery and to make her own form so she can feel more comfortable and shoot more naturally. With her right foot forward, she straightened her back, focused her eyes and mind, and starts pulling the bow strings. *Shuu* Letting go of the bow string, the arrow shot through the air while as if cutting through the wind and directly hit the middle of the target, she did this for a few times before stopping. Elena then proceeds to shoot while running left and right while trying to shoot all the targets. This time not all of the arrows hit the middle of the target, but she still hit the target and she could still improve herself. She then turned her head to look at me with an energentic smile while I just gave a faint smile while walking to her and gave her a few pointers. We then went into the mansion to search for mother and the others. After asking a passing maid, we asked where mother ans the others are. She told us that they are in the drawing room, so we proceeded to walk there. Reaching the drawing room, we gave a few knocks before entering. In there, we can see mother next to Sophia-Oneesama across aunt Liza. After the door was opened, we instantly caught their attention. I then bowed my head slightly and sat on a seperate couch since mother''s couch is already full. Surprisingly Elena sat next to me and not her mother, but I decided to just shrug it off as a childish action. "Well, now that Sol and Elena is here, let''s all go to the Affinity Examination area, Liza and Elena will be going with us, so let''s go and prepare." We then got down from the couch and starts walking out of the mansion and into the carriage, this time, we are going to ride aunt Liza''s carriage. The author''s content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. I spend the time in the carriage looking out the window silently so I can remember the way around the city, but I still subconsciously did the breathing technique since I have been using it for 5 years now, but it''s still not as efficient as doing it consciously, but for some reason, I can''t reach Master lvl 3 on the technique. After a while, the carriage stopped near a restaurant and we got down from it, what I saw was astonishing. A bunch of stalls are lined up on the town square, from food, weapons, and even miscellaneous items. At the end of the lines of stalls, there is a receptionist table with a really long line of people, and behind the table is a giant tent that seems to be the examination area, the tent looks a bit like a circus tent from my past life. The people that''s lining was surprised when they saw us, but they immediately calmed down and made way for us, I guess the duke''s family is quite well-known in this city. We then reached the reception table, on a closer look, the receptionist lady looks like a beauty with brown waist length hair, oval face with sharp brown eyes and well proportioned body that fits her looks. But she still can''t beat mother''s looks since in the first place, mother is a moon elf, she has a golden blonde hair with a sharp face and round light green eyes, coupled with mother''s noble-like air, waist that''s curved perfectly that goes with her green dress and chest that isn''t too big nor to small. Even though she is my mother, I still have to admit that mother is a stunning beauty. Aunt Liza then starts to get Sophia-Oneesama signed up for the elemental affinity examination. After she finished, we entered the giant tent where the examination is taking place. Inside, we saw a huge amount of people watching intently at a stage in the middle of the tent where a bunch of old men and a crystal ball is standing at. Suddenly, one of the old man on the stage called out a number and name. "Number 62, O''sio." After the old man that seems to be the examiner called out the name, a boy that seems to be around 8 years old got on the stage and bowed to the old man respectfully before the old man motioned him to touch the crystal. The boy then touched the crystal ball, it let out a bright brown glow for a few moments before dimming. "Earth Element, Average Affinity" The examiner then motioned the boy to leave the stage before continuing on to the next examinee. After the examiner called out a few more name, it''s finally Sophia-Oneesama''s turn. "Number 74, Sophia Dractum." Sophia-Oneesama then slowly walked to the stage. Many people was stunned by Sophia-Oneesama''s beauty, she has a waist length blonde hair with a sharp face just like mother, except Sophia-Oneesama has a big round, ocean blue eyes. Coupled with her mature and noble-like air and Oneesama''s blue dress that matches her eye color, her looks are comparable to mother''s, especially after she grows up a few more years. After getting on the stage, Sophia-Oneesama touched the crystal ball after the examiner motioned her to do so. Suddenly, a blinding blue and white light came put of the crystal ball, the light this time is incomparable to all the other light the past examinees caused. The examiner and the other of old mens let out a surprised gasps before calming and said. "Water and Light Element, High Affinity." Sophia-Oneesama was dazed for a moment before coming back to her senses and bowed slightly to the examiner before walking down the stage and back to us. "Congratulations, I''m so proud of you." Mother exclaimed before hugging Oneesama tightly. We then congratulated her one by one. When I was congratulating Oneesama with a slight smile, Oneesama suddenly blushed while hugging me and exclaimed. "You are just so cute and handsome." This has happend quite sometime for the past years ever since my hair turned silver, I was surprised at first when she did it because she usually seems so mature, but I got used to it over time. {A/N: Huhuhu, a bro-con and Ikeman duo. *mad laughter*.} "Sister, we should go." I told her. She nodded and put me down, but she won''t let go of my hand, so we walked out with the others while holding hands until we got out of the tent. We then went to eat at a restaurant where the carriage was parked at. After eating, we decided to talk about what to do next. "So what should we do now?"[Felicia] "Since it''s the first time Sol came to the city, we should let him have a look around the city, let Sophia and Elena accompany him."[Liza] I was interested in looking around the city, so I accepted the offer. "That sounds interesting, then I''ll do that." "Then you kids go have fun and buy something you might like, me and Felicia will go back to the mansion by another carriage, so come back to the carriage before the sky gets dark when you''re done." Aunt Liza warned us and mother gave me 15 gold coins. We just nodded in reply and went out of the restaurant. Sophia-Oneesama and Liza then brought me around the city and showed me the markets and shops while Elena is explaining how the city is divided. "In the North is the Noble area where the home of nobles are situated, in the South is where the home of commoners and the slums are situated, while from East to the West is where the markets and shops are situated, the cheaper stores are located in the West, while the more expensive ones are located at the East, in the Center is where the examination tent and auction house is at." Suddenly, I felt an attraction force and stopped in front of a stall. The stall looks rather shabby, especially with the beggar looking man with a lowered head under a straw hat and unshaved beard behind the counter, but what attracted me is what the stall held. The items there looks like a bunch of junk bundled together, but when I looked closer, I saw a white stone at the size of my fist. It seems to be what attracted me to it. I tried to appraise it, but nothing came out of it. That means this item must be quite special. Suddenly, a hand tapped my shoulder, and when I turned my head, I saw Sophia-Oneesama''s face with Elena next to her with a questioning look before asking me. "What are you doing here, Sol?" "I want to buy that white stone, mister, what''s the price for that white stone?" The man then raised his head and looked directly into my eyes, when I saw his eyes, my body shook a bit. All I could think of at that time is. ''I know those type of eyes, those are eyes that has seen countless deaths, eyes that have killed, and eyes that have brought destruction, he''s no beggar, he''s an expert.'' The man then raised an eyebrow before lowering his head and said. "1 gold coin." Sophia-Oneesama and Elena wanted to protest. Their reaction is understandable, because the economy in this world works like this: 1 loaf of bread is 5 copper coin, 100 copper coin is 1 silver coins, 100 silver coin is 1 gold coin, 100 gold coin is 1 black gold coin, and 100 black gold coin is 1 platinum coin. but I just stopped them and raised my hand while giving a reassuring smile and said. "Don''t worry, I''ll buy it." I then took out 1 gold coin and gave it to the beggar looking man before taking the stone and leaving without looking back. -----Beggar Looking Man''s PoV----- Looking at the departing boy''s back, I mused in my heart ''What a monstrous child, he could see through me just by looking into my eyes, what an interesting child, I hope we meet again young one.'' I then played with the gold coin he gave me while departing from the-now-empty-stall with a cloth bag on my back. -----Chapter 9 End----- Chapter 10: New Domain and Aaliyah A/N: Many people questioned Sol''s parents because they let Sol hold weapons when he is still a 1 year old, well, that''s because their world is super dangerous with monsters and stuff, so the faster he get stronger, the better, and they already think of him as a prodigy anyway, and another reason is because of my writing mood, so yeah ( ¡ä ¨Œ ` ) And how he got all those OP stuff will be explained in a really far future chapter, but if you can''t no longer wait: Spoiler : It''s because a God intervened So that''s that, now here''s today''s chapter ------------------------ Chapter 10: New Domain and Aaliyah -----Sol''s PoV----- After buying the stone, we proceed to walk back to the carriage. In the carriage, Oneesama and Elena talked about something that I couldn''t understand, I think people say that this is the so-called ladies talk... While I, on the other hand, decided to examine the stone that I just bought, I remember appraising it doesn''t work, so I tried a diffrent approach, I enhanced my eyes with star energy. This is a new technique I learned, by supplying only a part of my body individually with star energy, I can remove the backlash from the skill, by supplying my feet or legs with star energy, I can strengthen them, but when I strengthen my tounge, eyes or ears individually, I can enhance my senses, but when I enhance my eyes, it causes my eyes to turn silver and allowed me to see energy in a shape of a colorful globe, I can even see the energy emitted by living things in the shape of gas. So enhancing my eyes, I can see the stone brighten and glittered like a star, this is a sign that this stone possess star energy inside of it. I was quite surprised, from what I know, items with star energy is quite rare, because star energy comes from the stars, so that means this item should be something quite special, so I decided to try experimenting with the stone. First, I tried inserting Divine Star energy into the stone, but when the energy and stone was about to touch, they shook a bit and didn''t touch each other, it was like they were repelling each other, I was astonished, I have tried inserting Divine Star energy into common things, but the result was always the Divine Star energy refusing to enter the item. I then stopped the Divine Star energy from trying to enter the stone, and proceed to the next experiment. This time, I tried absorbing the star energy within the stone, it worked, but suddenly, the energy within the stone shook a bit, and the absorbtion rate increased, because of my special body that was enhanced by Divine Star energy, I can handle more star energy than usual. After 5 minutes, the absorbtion didn''t stop, on the contrary, it''s speeding up and caused my body to overflow with energy, this caused my face to start paling, if anymore energy enters my body, my body will receive internal injury and worst case scenario, I can''t absorb anymore star energy. So I closed my eyes and grit my teeth, I then tried to compress the star energy inside of me, it worked, but not for long before the Divine Star energy starts overflowing within me. I then snapped my eyes open and thought in my mind. ''I will not be defeated by this, I will consume you and turn you into my power!'' Suddenly, I gained a flash of inspiration and decided to take a risk. I tried expelling the Divine Star energy within me in a form of a dome, then I tried imagining the universe and tried forming it using the overflowing Divine Star energy within the dome of Divine Star energy. Then slowly but surely, the energy stop overflowing within me and the stone seems to stop sending out energy. I then opened my eyes, and what I saw was as expected, my surrounding is filled with stars, from big to small and in different colors, this is what I used the overflowing Divine Star energy for, a brand new domain,¡¶Universe Domain¡· Then suddenly, an information window showed up inside my mind.

A moment later, the domain starts to dissipate, I then start looking around and found Oneesama and Elena looking at me worriedly, I raised an eyebrow and asked. This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there. "What''s wrong?" "We saw you start gritting your teeth and sweating profusely while your body shined brightly with silver light after the stone you bought disappeared." Elena answered. I then looked into my hand that was holding the white stone, and sure enough the stone was gone, not even a dust remained. But suddenly, the carriage abruptly stopped, so Oneesama questioned the coachman. "Did something happend?" "Miss, there is a group of bandits, they seem to be attacking a carriage right now, what should we do?" Hearing that, I stared out the window, surely what the coachman said was true, there seems to be about 20 bandits surrounding a carriage, they way they fought is really rough, no technique, just brute strength, the corpses on the ground seems to be mercenaries that was supposed to protect the carriage. ''This is a good chance to see the result of my training.'' I thought, I then opened the carriage door and got out of the carriage. Elena seeing me getting out of the carriage knew what I want to do, she wanted to try saying something to stop me, but I just gave her and Sophia-Oneesama a reassuring glance before continue walking to the carriage while my eyes start releasing a cold glint. -----Third Person PoV----- {A/N: The battle scenes will be 3rd Person PoV most of the time to make it easier to describe.} Sol''s body then suddenly disappeared before reappearing behind one of the bandits with a scythe in hand, because of how far the carriage Elena and Sophia is with where the attacked carriage is at, Elena and Sophia couldn''t see how Sol is fighting, neither could they see his scythe. Sol then swung his scythe with both hands directly at the bandit''s neck like a grim reaper reaping the lives of the living and caused the bandit''s head to topple down his body like a basket ball. Sol then once again disappeared and reappeared at a location that''s adjacent to 2 bandits that''s standing next to each other, but this time, Sol is holding a heavy sword, when Sol was 1 year old, his body strength is not enough, so no matter how skilled he was, he won''t be able to use the heavy sword, but ever since Sol reached 4 years old, he finally have enough strength to wield the heavy sword. Sol then swung his sword to the side of one of the bandits, this caused the bandit to fly to the other bandit and made them both fly until they crashed a few trees and boulders, after confirming that they were dead, Sol then switched his weapon to a bow. He then jumped up to a tree and snipes the bandits dead by a shot to the head one by one with extreme precision, he then turned his head to the carriage where a woman that seems to have received a mortal wound from a sword to the stomach is lying while carefully hugging a baby in a cloth. -----Sol''s PoV----- I then jumped down from the tree and took a closer look at the woman that currently has her back against a tree, she has a long black raven hair reaching her waist and dark violet eyes, her body is quite petite with pale white skin because of her bloodloss. She then suddenly called out to me. "Young sir, may I request something of you?" "...What can I do for you?" "Please... take care of my baby, I beg of you, let her live a happy life, I do not mind losing my life as long as she is safe and happy." Without hesitation I nodded and walked closer to her and kneeled on one knee to get on the same eye level. "I, Sol'' Lux Dractum, vow to take care of your baby and take her in as my family." "Thank you... her name is Aaliyah, because you will be taking care of her, you can decide on her family name, she was born just yesterday, and her father and mother has already passed away..." She then removed a silver necklace around her neck and put it on the baby''s neck, after kissing her baby''s forehead, she then handed the baby, Aaliyah, to me. I then took the baby off her hand before asking. "May I at least know your name, and how can you ask this of me so easily?" She then smiled and said with eyes brimming with tears. "My name is Alicia Tenebris, mother of Aaliyah Tenebris, now shall be known as Aaliyah Dractum, it''s all because of your eyes that''s filled with guilt, I believe that no evil hearted man will bear guilt on their heart." Her voice starts getting hoarse at the end followed by her eyes that starts to dim and close, even during her last moments, she still has that content smile on her face. I do not know why I accepted her request, was it on impulse? Maybe, but I do not regret my choice, because I will try to save as many innocent life as I can, even if it won''t be able to repent my sins. -----Sophia''s PoV----- In the carriage, me and Elena are fidgeting while waiting for Sol to return, ever since Sol was born, I have always been dazed by his action, he trains for the sake of others, he was never arrogant, he even spend time with us even when he could''ve been training or reading, and his looks defeats every other boy I know, even those nobles are no match for him, especially ever since his hair turned silver colored. But I still blame myself for leaving him at the forest at that time, I know he is stronger than us, and he doesn''t really blame me and Oniisama to, but he is still my little brother, and I can''t help but blame myself. I have been trying to act more mature for my brothers so I can take care of them when needed, but it seems that Sol can can take care of himself. Suddenly, the carriage''s door was opened and Sol entered while carrying something in his arms, on a closer look, it was a baby girl, we were surprised, but before we can say anything, Sol said. "Please take care of her." He said while handing me the baby girl and getting down and went to say something to the coachman before getting back to the destroyed carriage. The carriage then suddenly moved and followed behind Sol. After reaching the destroyed carriage, I saw many spilled blood and dead bodies, some even lost a limb or two, I hugged Elena''s head so she doesn''t have to see this gruesome scene. ''Did Sol kill some of them?" I wondered and let my gaze wander to Sol, I saw Sol lifted something up, it seems to be a body of a woman, Sol then made a grave and burried the body of the woman inside and erected a tombstone, he silently stood there for a while before walking back and entering the carriage with tranquil eyes. We were silent all the way until the mansion, I wanted to ask many question, and Elena seems to feel the same as me, but we knew that Sol will tell us when he feels like it and when it is the right time, so we will wait patiently, as her sister and friend. -----Chapter 10 End----- Chapter 11: The Adoption and Confession Chapter 11: The Adoption and Confession -----Sol''s PoV----- After returning to the carriage, Sophia-Oneesama and Elena didn''t say a word, they might''ve considered my feelings and I appreciate that. We then reached the mansion and silently walked back to the drawing room while receiving wondering stares from the maids and butlers because of the odd scene of me carefully carrying little Aaliyah in my embrace. Arriving at the drawing room, I knocked at the door silently before opening it. Inside, we saw mother and aunt Liza talking to each other before turning their head to us and showing a surprised and questioning expression. They sat there quietly, looking at us, as if waiting for an answer from us patiently, I silently thanked them inside my heart before saying. "Mother, this baby''s name is Aaliyah Tenebris, she was born yesterday and already lost both of her parents, I ask of mother to let me adopt her as my little sister, I promise that I will take full responsibility of her actions." I said sincerely while bowing my head deeply. Everyone in the room was astonished by my request, because this is the second time I have made a real request and the first time I have bowed my head so deeply. Mother was the first to regain her composure before saying. "Sol, you are my son, you do not need to bow your head to make a request to your mother, now raise your head." "...Thank you, mother." I then raised my head while mother let out a sigh before saying. "Now, for your request, we will adopt her to our family and treat her as one, I''ll get your father to agree to this whether he likes it or not, and now, let her be now and forever be known as Aaliyah Dractum." "Thank you mother, I promise I will tell you... everything, when we get back..." Mother just smiled and took Aaliyah off my hand and caressed her face, Aaliyah have similiar characteristics as her mother, black hair and violet eyes, but her eyes are light violet unlike her mother''s dark violet. We then said our goodbyes and returned to our household. Looking at it from the outside, it looks like a small sized mansion. And surprisingly, Aaliyah was quiet We then went to the drawing room after we had a maid to go call father to the drawing room. After father arrived, he sat next to mother and Sophia-Oneesama while I sat across them, I then decided to start talking. "On the road to the mansion, we saw a carriage being attacked, the mercenaries guarding the carriage was killed by bandits, the mother of Aaliyah, Alicia, died protecting Aaliyah, on her last moments, she asked me to take care of Aaliyah, so I accepted, and sister, you saw that all the bandits that was attacking the carriage have all died right?" "Yes... the road was filled with blood and dismembered bodies, was that... all done by you?" "Yes, I killed them all... you must be wondering how I, a 5 years old boy can kill people so easily without feeling nausea." I than made a smile between a wry and helpless smile. "Well, I... am a reincarnated person, sent here from another world by one of the gods of this world, Virs, The Goddess of Life and Death, to be her champion, and in my past life, I have killed many, many people..." I then went quiet to let my family digest these information. Then mother suddenly starts speaking. "I... do not care if you are a reincarnated person from another world, or a champion of a god. All I know is, that you are my son and my family, and that''s all I care about." Mother then hugged me tightly. I was quite surprised, but I just smiled happily, I don''t know why, but when she said that, I feel like a burden has been lifted from my shoulder. "So what if you''re a reincarnated person, you''re still my cute and handsome little brother." Oneesama, no, Sophia then hugged my back in a child like manner. "Even if you are from another world, you are still our flesh and blood, and I... have some secrets to tell you, this will involve Sol only, because only Sol''s body holds the pure bloodline of my ancestors." Father said with a sigh, I was quite surprised and excited, because father is going to tell me the other half of my race. "I will explain it tomorrow, so you can get Aaliyah comfortable to the mansion and spend time with the others, because... this might have a huge change to your future." Hearing that, I was quite nervous, but Sophia and mother just stayed quiet. So, after a few moments, Sophia and mother stopped hugging me and called a maid to get a cradle for Aaliyah, because mother doesn''t want to waste things, mother told the maid to get my old cradle, I spent the rest of the day reading near Aaliyah so I can take care of her at the same time before going to bed, because the cradle is in mother''s room, I have to leave Aaliyah with mother. The next day, father called me directly to go to his office, I don''t know what work does father do, but he most of the time stays in his office. Inside, there is a line of bookshelf that extends until father''s office table, father looks like he is currently writing something, when he heard the sound if door opening, he stop writing and raised his head before making a faint smile, his smile looked like a self-mocking smile. Father then stood up and pats my head before gesturing me to follow him, without hesitation I followed him. We then went out of the mansion and into the forest behind the mansion, I had no doubts that father must be really powerful to enter the forest that''s filled with ferocious beasts without hesitation. After walking for about an hour, we saw a cavern inside a mountain, we then entered the cave. Inside, there are a no torches, but the cave is brightly lit by the natural crystal inside the cave, the crystal in the cave let out bloody glittering glow. Inside this dark cave, the blood red glittering glow of the crystals made the crystal look like a blood red star in the night sky. Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. We then entered a cavern in the shape of an upside down bowl before father turned around and looked at me in the eye, I don''t know why, but father''s atmosphere is extremely domineering, unlike his usual carefree atmosphere. Father then suddenly said. "Sol, I... no, to be exact, me, you and your ancestors, are not human, this, you should have noticed quite a long time ago, but what we truly are... is something that many people feared in the past, we..." Father then closed his eyes before snapping it eyes open, revealing a slit pupils that looks like a dragon''s before exclaiming in a domineering voice. "Are Star Asura Draconians!!!" I was quite surprised, I knew I wasn''t human, but never have I guessed that I am a half draconian, but before I could ask anything, father continued. "You might be wondering, what is the difference between a normal draconians and us, Star Asura Draconians. But first, let me ask you, what are the diffrence between draconians and normal dragons?" Receiving that question, I went into a deep thought before answering. "Draconians are dragons that can turn human or only summon half of their dragon-like body parts, draconians are commonly known to be stronger than dragons because of the innate abilities they have are stronger than dragon''s abilities." Father then laughed unrestrainedly before saying. "Correct, my son is really smart, now I shall tell you about what makes us, Star Asura Draconians, really special. Our race is an extremely powerful type of draconian, we have the power of the stars, and the bloodlust and strength of an asura. But because we are too powerful, the other draconians feared us." Saying that, extreme bloodlust emanated from father before he continued. "Our ancestors are powerful characters, and they were feared by other draconian races, so the draconians banded together and drived us out of the Sacra continent, our ancestors were forced to move, because of our original small amount of number, we don''t dare to go to the central continent, so we went to Earlshide in the Orion continent as the Dractum family, as humans." Father then closed his eyes once more before opening it again, revealing his normal, human-like pupils and said. "Because of this, you will have some draconians that will try to kill you, so forgive me and your ancestors, we can try to diminish your ancestral bloodline so other draconians won''t notice your bloodline." Father said with a regretful and loving tone. I then answered without hesitation. "I will accept my ancestral bloodline, even if other draconians might try to kill me, I do not mind, I will use this power with heads held high to protect mother and the others." Father''s eye then brighten up. "Good, you are trully my son, now, I shall awaken your bloodline, the quality of your bloodline depends on its purity, it is divided into: Common Bloodline, Ancestral Bloodline, Ancient Bloodline, Heavenly Bloodline, Divine Bloodline. The bloodline of our race will be atleast Ancestral Bloodline, with Divine Bloodline as the strongest, after your bloodline awakened, I will help you determine your bloodline quality." After saying that, father lightly threw a glittering crimson pendant at me, looking closer, it seems to be carved into the shape of a coiling dragon. "Now send your will into the pendant to activate it, usually, the more powerful your bloodline is, the longer it takes for your bloodline to activate." After father told me that, I closed my eyes and sat down in a cross-legged position, then I tried sending my will into the pendant. A few moments later, I opened my eyes, and I saw a void space, looking down my body, I saw that my body is in a spirit-like form. Suddenly, a pair of piercing golden dragon eye showed up in the void of space, for some reason, I feel no danger from it, in fact, I sense a feeling of familiarity from it. There was no sound in the void of space, until suddenly a domineering voice rumbled out. "Descendant of my Star Asura race, it seems you are a half-ling, born from a mating between my descendant and someone from another race, but no matter, you still hold the bloodline of my race, so you have the qualification to hold the power of Star Asura Dragons, now, I shall send in my will to activate your bloodline. Child, do not resist, you may faint if you wish to, because while I am inspecting your bloodline, your soul will feel agonizing pain." I then did as I was told and calmed my mind and put down the defences on my mind. A golden beam of light then shot out from the dragon''s eye and into my eyes. I then felt as if my body was cut by a thousand knife and then bathed in flames while being bitten by millions of ants, it was agonizing, but I decided to stay conscious and forced my mind to stay awake. ..... I don''t know how long it has been, I have long lost the sense of time, my soul was tempered in this hell like place, my soul felt as if it was chopped, burnt, and bitten for who knows how many times, but I still preserved. Then I suddenly I felt a surge of power and suddenly all the torturing feelings disappeared from my spirit body, my soul body felt as if it was strengthen by who knows how many times. Suddenly, the golden dragon eye showed up once more, the dragon said in a surprised tone. "What a pleasent surprise, my descendant, you have a powerful will and perseverance. And even more astonishing, you have a Divine Bloodline, my descendant, your future prospects will be astonishing, now, I shall send you back to the material world and let you test your new powers from your awakened bloodline, I hope you shall have a bright future ahead of you." I was dazed by the revelation of my bloodline''s rank, but I quickly composed myself and gave a deep thankful bow to the dragon''s eye before I felt a force pulling my soul out of the void space. I''m quite excited to test my new powers. -----Chapter 11 End----- Chapter 11.5: Child of Carnage and Blood Chapter 11.5: Child of Carnage and Blood -----Third Person PoV----- Night in Japan was filled with bustling activity, but not in a certain city, this city is known as Black City, because of the fact that 80% of underground business in Japan is dealt there. There are many kinds of underground business dealt there, from drugs, slavery, prostitution, black markets, selling human organs, smuggling, and even assassinations. In a certain building, a group of kids are grouped in a room, the kids have one common feature, they look like beggars because of the ragged clothes they''re wearing. In front of the kids is a man in a black cloak with a symbol of a smiling skull with 2 scythes in front of it. If other people saw that symbol, they would quiver in fear because this organization was an elite assassin organization where failing a mission means death, and all the assassins are trained by the members from when they were kids, so killing was engraved inside their soul since young. "You brats are a bunch of worthless trash that have been thrown out by your parents, now I will give you all a chance to live a bit longer, I will throw this sack of food, but the food inside this sack is not enough for all of you, so try to eat more than the others and live longer." Without waiting for a reply, the man threw the sack of food up in the air and all the food dropped out of the sack, the eyes of all the kids in the room flared like a hungry beast as they sprint with all the energy they have left and took as much food as they could, they kicked and punched other kids so that they could get more food. As a result, many kids are beaten black and blue, but surprisingly, all of the girls managed to get at least a piece of food, there are mostly boys in the group of kids, so it resulted in the number of kids plummeting until only half of the kids are left, the kids that was beaten was thrown out into the cold night streets with no mercy by the black cloaked man. After the man threw out the beaten up kids like trash, he looked back to the group of surviving kids that''s currently eating the food they got. But there is one child that is sitting secluded from all the other kids, his body is quite thin, but his eyes are filled with sharpness unfitting for a child, the man in black cloak was quite surprised, he thought to himself. ''This child seems to be the cream of the crop.'' He then brought all the children to another part of the building, there are many other people that is walking around the building while wearing the same clothing as the man. He then brought the kids to a certain room, inside, there are people with their limbs tied up with chains and a variety of weapons is placed on a long table, there are swords, guns, katanas, daggers, and more weapons meant for killing. The man then turned around and said to the kids. "You all are to kill at least one person, for who ever that can''t even kill one, will be thrown out just like the others, the more you kill, the more food you can get." After he said that, all of them hesitated, but the child that secluded himself suddenly grabbed a gun, the man thought he was about to shoot one of the chained people. But suddenly, the boy pointed the muzzle of the gun at the man, without giving the man anytime to react, the boy shot a bullet directly into the man''s head. Even until death, the man''s eyes are wide open, as if he still couldn''t believe how he died. The boy then puts on a holster and kept the gun inside it, he then took a katana and cut the chains binding the limbs of the bound people. "Get out of here, I will not bother with your cheap lives, now leave, because this place is going down to hell." Saying that, the boy left the room, leaving the people left inside the room dumbfounded before coming to their senses and rushing out of the room and trying to leave the building. Meanwhile, the child is currently placing C4s in a few places inside the building stealthily, surprisingly, no one in the building noticed the escaping people and planted C4s. The boy then stealthily left the building. Spoiler: Random Scene *BOOOOM GUNUNUNUJUHEGDHSJJSB* After he is about 10 meters away, an amazing explosion sounded out and it was raining men©d(?¡ö_¡ö)¥Î? and the boy kept walking like an emo cool guy. {A/N: Result of me being high and sleepy, so this won''t be a real scene.} *BOOOOOOOM* After he is about 10 meters away, he stopped and the building he was in exploded and the flare of light from the explosion caused the night filled with darkness to light up. Suddenly, an old man showed up beside him and said. This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. "Heh, boy, you have mastered my infiltration and stealth skills, you are my only disciple, but your talent sure is monstrous. 5 years old and already mastered my skills of using multiple weapons in 1 year, I sure have created a monster." "Master, I will still keep following you even if I have mastered all your skills." Said the boy resolutely, the man just chuckled in reply, and they turned back and disappeared into the darkness of the night. ..... 5 years later in a wasteland that is currently filled with rivers of blood and mountains of corpses, a boy about 10 years of age is currently howling in grief under the curtain of rain that hides the tears that are currently flowing down his cheeks. "DON''T YOU DARE TO DIE ON ME OLD MAN." He said while trying to heal a man''s body, the man currently has a face that is as pale as paper and there is a huge hole in his stomach currently, it makes people wonder how he is still alive. The old man said with a warm smile. "Child, you are my one and only disciple, and I also think of you as my son, all this time you have been following me on my jobs, may it be killing or slaughtering, all I wish now is so that you can have a life befitting a child your age, go to school, make some friends, and live happily, and as Ten''no Yuki, the 10 years old boy..." Slowly, his voice quiets down and his eyes starts to dim. Seeing this, Yuki starts screaming at the top of his lungs with bloodshot eyes that''s streaming with tears while looking up. "AHHHH, YOU ALL WHO HAVE BROUGHT THE DEATH OF MY MASTER, MY FATHER, SHALL PAY THIS DEBT OF BLOOD!!!" He then grieved until he lost consciousness. After he woke up, he dug a grave for the old man and used a katana as a replacement for a tombstone. He then turned back and went to the closest city without looking back. If anyone saw his face, they would have been petrified by fear because of the wild bloodlust and chilling coldness inside the his eyes. ..... 1 year later, in a morning like any other, a boy is walking somewhere, from the clothes he is wearing, people would think he is going to school. The boy then suddenly stopped and looked up to a commercial LCD screen that''s currently showing the news. "It has been one year ever since the destruction of many assassin organization, and the cause of this still haven''t been found, many assassin organizations are cowering in fear because of this, we still can not confirm if he is an ally or an enemy of government." Hearing that, the boy made a cold, detached smile and proceeded on his way. He then reached a school building, on the name plate, it''s written in bold ''Snow Sakura Academy''. Reading that, he made a weird face and thought to himself. ''Who can have such a bad naming sense.'' He then shrugged and followed the flow of students into the school building, he got a few stares because of his handsome features and new face. He then reached the teacher''s room and reported in, he was then led to a 6th grader class room by someone that''s supposed to be his home room teacher. He then entered the class room and stood in front of the class, the teacher then said. "Now, we have a transfer student that will be joining our class, can you introduce yourself?" He nodded to the teacher and thought to himself. ''Old man, I finally avenged you, now I''ll live an ordinary life as you requested.'' He then said with a grin. "My name is Ten''no Yuki, pleased to meet all of you." ..... -----Yuki(Sol)''s PoV----- Another year passed since I have started living as a normal person, since I have a lot of savings while living at one of master''s houses, I can live comfortably as long as I don''t waste money. The test in this school has been relatively easy, I managed to ace the tests with little effort, but I seclude myself from the other students. I was offered to join the student council, but I declined because it seems quite bothersome. I wasn''t interested in the clubs either, but I was interested at one of the clubs at first, the kendo club. Because I thought it involved fighting, I tried checking it out, but I was disappointed, they only fought for show, not self-defence. ..... So with that, time passed, and 4 years gone by, many events happened, but that will be a story for another time, now shall be a story of my new life. -----Chapter 11.5 End----- A/N: I suck at making dramatic scenes forgive me orz And for anyone that doesn''t know, 1st-6th grade is elementary, 7th-9th is middle school, 10th-12th is high school. Looking at this again, I feel like I really suck at making this chapter Chapter 12: The Divine Bloodline Chapter 12: The Divine Bloodline -----Sol''s PoV----- Suddenly, I saw a flash of light, and I snapped my eyes open, my body felt different, or rather, it feels as if a huge restriction has just been removed from my body. So I tried stretching my body, and it felt like my strength have increased by multiple folds. Then suddenly, a few information windows showed up in my mind.
You have awakened your bloodline, your race have been updated so sub-races shall now be shown and racial skills have now been unlocked.

I was astonished, I surprisingly have a Divine Bloodline. Before I could examine my new skills, father suddenly said with a laugh. "Haha, welcome back Sol, looks like you managed to awaken your bloodline, now hold out your hand and let me examine your bloodline and see your bloodline''s rank." I wanted to tell him that I already knew my bloodline''s rank, but thinking again, it''s better for father to see for himself. So I held out my hand and let father examine it. Father then held my hand and looked at it, looking at father''s eyes closely, the pupils in his eyes turned into slits like a dragon''s. After a few moment, father let out a surprised gasp and suddenly gripped my shoulder tightly and shook my body back and forth. "Sol, My son, you have a Divine Bloodline!! This means you have boundless future prospect!!" Because I started to get dizzy, I said to him. "Father, I already know that, and stop shaking me, I''m getting dizzy!" Father''s body then went stiff for a second before he recomposed himself and letting go of my shoulder. "*cough*, um, ok then..." Father then returned back to his fierce atmosphere, I squinted my eyes with doubt, but I just shook my head while sighing to myself and let father speak. "So, since your bloodline have awakened, you should have your racial abilities and racial techniques now, because your bloodline is Divine ranked, you will be able to use 100% of the racial abilities and techniques such as, Dragonification, Star Asura Cultivation and Battle Technique. I will allow you to use all your new skills except for the cultivation technique, because if you train under the age of 8, your body have a high chance of taking internal injuries because it can''t take the pressure from the cultivation technique, do you understand?" "Yes." "Good, now so I don''t have to teach you this later, I will tell you this now, every race except for ferocious beasts have the same 9 cultivation stages and made of 9 levels: Apprentice Stage, Mortal Stage, Spirit Stage, Core Stage, King Stage, Emperor Stage, Earth Stage, Heavenly Stage, Divine Stage. Apprentice Stage is when you start to feel Qi in the air and try to absorb it. Mortal Stage is when you refine the Qi and transform your mortal body. Spirit Stage is when you form a spirit inside your body and strengthen it, people''s spirit can be anything and can be more than one based on the cultivator''s soul. If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. Core Stage is when you form a core inside your body as where you can keep your spirit, and you can materialise your spirit when you reach this stage. For King Stage until Divine Stage, you may not learn of it yet, you will know when you are strong enough." Father then stopped talking to let me digest the information, but I''m quite dazed. Cultivation, I think in my old world, it exists as chinese martial arts or fantasy, but I''m still quite excited, that means this world isn''t only about magic, there will be fighters and more opponents. After I finish digesting the information, father continued. "But, for mages and sorcerers, there exists stages too, but unlike cultivation, there is 6 stages and 9 levels for mages and sorcerers: Apprentice Mage/Sorcerer Stage, Novice Mage/Sorcerer Stage, Master Mage/Sorcerer Stage, Grand Mage/Sorcerer Stage, Arch Mage/Sorcerer Stage, Divine Mage/Sorcerer Stage. The class for mages and sorcerers signifies the amount of control they have over the elements, and it also shows the rank of magic they can use at most. For example, Apprentice Mage can cast Apprentice rank magic at most, while Novice Mage can cast Novice rank magic at most, but can still cast the spells with lower rank." Father then stopped talking to let me digest the information again. This is a new revelation for me, but I suddenly thought of something. "Father, what''s the difference between Mages and Sorcerers?" "Good question, well, as you know, Mages can form spells in the air using their mana as long as they can make an image of the spells they are about to make, but they usually chant to make the spells stronger or to make their image more solid. Sorcerers on the other hand, they casts spells using a magic formation or magic circle as a catalyst, this causes their magic to be stronger, but take a much longer time to cast, but Sorcerers have branch jobs, such as Alchemists and Enchanters, which is quite important for a kingdom." I then digested this information once again before asking another question. "Then father, can someone be a Mage and Sorcerers at the same time?" "Yes, they can, but people rarely do it, since being either a Sorcerer or a Mage is already quite hard, so only extremely talented people can be both at the same time." So what I can conclude is, Mages are stronger for small scale battle and good for preparing daily needs, while Sorcerers are stronger at a large scale battle and a perfect support. I then made a decision in my head and said to father. "Then I shall try to be both, and if I can''t, I''ll at least be a Sorcerer." Father then nodded and said with a smile. "Good, you have already prepared yourself. Now let''s go back so your mother and sister won''t get worried." But suddenly, a thought hit me, so I asked. "Wait, does mother and Sophia already knew we''re draconians?" "Your mother already knew that we''re draconians, and she should''ve told Sophia already, but I haven''t told them our circumstances." We then got out of the cave and walked back to the mansion. ..... Back at the mansion, I spend the rest of the day playing with Sophia and Aaliyah and decided to start testing my new skills tomorrow. But after hearing what father have told me today, I start getting more excited and impatient for the day I turn 8. ..... The next day, I went to test my new skills at the mansion''s courtyard. First, I tried to use Dragonification and my skin was suddenly covered by crimson scales with silver hue, while a pair of dragon wings with the same color as my scales and a dragon tail emerged from where my tail bone was. Surprisingly, I can control my wings and tails as if I was born with it. I then walked to the pond inside the courtyard, on the water reflection, I saw the skin on my face covered with the same scales as the one on my body, my hair now has a hint of crimson hue, while my eyes have the biggest change. My golden pupil have turned into slits like a dragon''s, while my iris now have glittering silver color with a hint of crimson, surprisingly, my eyes radiates a hint kf bloodlust, it seems my bloodlust in this form is multiplied by several folds, resulting on a leakage. I then spend about an hour trying to contain my amplified bloodlust. Next, I tried using Star Asura Battle Technique, the technique was supposed to use Qi to materialise the aura of the technique, but I managed to only use my already high amount of bloodlust and combine it with my Divine Star energy, the power is reduced a lot, and I require more energy and bloodlust than the normal amount. This skill uses the bloodlust to intimidate and star energy as fire power, Qi is used to give it form from my estimation. I can use this skill to form a weapon, but it''s not strong since it doesn''t have a real solid form, and I can''t give it a material form for long since it''s very taxing. After I finish testing my Draconian Racial Skill, I tried my Elf Racial Skill. Enhancing my eye in a certain way, my eyes seems to glow a bit and I can see a few glowing orbs of different colors and gaseous energy emanating from people, plants, and animals around the house. The plants seems to have low energy since their gasous energy is quite thin, while people have the most energy with a thick gaseous energy. The orbs have a few different colors, there are red, green, yellow, blue, white, black and golden orb. The red orbs sticks with places with fire, so fire element. The green orbs thickens when the wind blows, so wind element. The yellow orbs sticks with the ground and land, so earth element. The blue orbs exists most on the water with some on the atmosphere, so water element. The white orbs stays in bright places, so light element. The black orbs stays in dark places or shadows, so darkness element. The golden orbs are the thinnest on the air, but they exists mostly on the clouds, especially the dark ones, I only managed to see them thanks to my enhanced vision with my dragon eyes. But there is still a few other orbs, but these orbs are very different than the other 7 orbs, there are 4 orbs, their color is... unique, they even have a weird feeling on them, unlike the other 7 orbs. There are orbs with a bright light color, the orbs have feeling of vitality, every living things has it on them, but a few withering plants have the fewest, it should be life element. Another type are orbs filled with thick darkness and malice, it groups on the plants that have been left by the life element orbs, so death element. Some orbs are flickering and teleporting around, it seems to be there and not there at the same time, so space-time element. The other one is the most mysterious of the four, if the orbs of space-time element makes you feel as if it wasn''t there and there at the same time, this one feels as if it exists and doesn''t exist at the same time, if you take your eyes of it, it makes you feel as if you never knew it was there at all, I think it should be the void element. But for some reason, I can''t seem to find orbs of the Divine and Destruction element, those two elements are as mysterious as the void element. But this makes me even more excited and impatient for my element examination and my cultivation training. -----Chapter 12 End----- Chapter 13: Affinity Examination and Academy Chapter 13: Affinity Examination and Academy. -----Sol''s PoV----- It has been 3 years since I awakened my Star Asura Draconian Bloodline, I have mastered all of my Racial Skills, and I have trained my body and weapon skills to the utmost my body can handle ever since I hit 6 years of age. So I used most of my time with my family, especially with Sophia and Aaliyah. Sophia and Aaliyah is quite attached to me, it''s understandable if it was Aaliyah since she is still quite young, but Sophia always acts childish around me, she usually acts mature around others, but around me and our family, she acts quite childish, but it''s understandable since Sophia is still quite young, but I sometimes worry about how intimate she gets around me, but I will omit this information, since I''m not willing to disclose my sister''s personal information to the readers. {A/N: Someone get me some cement and bricks, I want this 4th wall patched up ASAP.} But a years after my awakening, Sophia needed to go to an academy to learn magic, I trust her skills in magic since she trained diligently everyday, but I missed her ever since, Sophia and mother cried when it was time to depart, while dad held back his tears, as for me... I can''t seem to cry, but I still miss her considerably. Me and Sophia hugged for a long time before she departed, I tried to smile as best as I could when she departed, but I think it just turned into a sour smile. I spent the rest of the year continuing my training regimee, and since Sophia isn''t in the mansion anymore, I naturally spend more time with Aaliyah and Elena when we visit each other, Aaliyah is able to walk and speak after a year, she usually plays with Elena when I''m busy, but when mother suddenly asked. "Aaliyah, out of Sol, Sophia and Elena, who''s your favorite person?" "I love brother the most!" She said with a wide innocent smile that showed the dimples on her cheeks. I was quite touched, so I decided to spent the rest of the day with her, I guess this is the charm of innocent children. I decided, I must protect Aaliyah from pedophiles, especially the author. {A/N: STOP BREAKING THE DAMN WALL, IT AIN''T CHEAP, and I''m no pedophile, wuwuwu(¨i©n¨i).} We spent the last year as usual. But Sophia sometimes visits us during the school''s holidays. On the other hand Joseph can''t visit us frequently because knight military academy is harsher and stricter than the rest of the academies. At last, it''s now the day of my elemental affinity examination. Today I''m wearing a silver robe with a crimson hue, this robe was specially made for today''s examination, just like Sophia''s dress at that time. Going to the drawing room, I saw Elena, aunt Liza sitting across mother, Sophia, and Aaliyah. Elena seems to be the same age as me, so she will be taking the examination with me. And it looks like Sophia managed to get a permit to leave so she can visit us today. "Sol~ I miss you so much!!" Sophia suddenly exclaimed while dashing to me when I entered the room. I was surprised, but in the next moment, I regained my composure and hugged Sophia into my embrace. ''If an outsider saw this scene, I bet they will think we''re either a lover or I am an elder brother hugging her sister.'' I thought to myself while making a wry smile. I then shook my head and tilted my head down and met eyes with Sophia who is currently making a shy smile. Because of my rapid height growth, I''m now taller than Sophia, this is another reason why I look like an elder brother compared to her. Sighing to myself, I then lifted my head up and said to everyone. "So, should we get going now?" Everyone just gave a smile and nodded before walking out of the room and into the carriage in front of the mansion. This time, we were seperated into 2 carriages, with me, Sophia, Aaliyah, and Elena in the first carriage, while Mother and Aunt Liza in the other carriage. After we entered the carriage, it then starts to move and proceed to Flumine City. On the way there, I thought to myself while looking out the carriage''s window. ''I guess I should have one last look of my status before the examination.''

I really wonder how does my stats receive this rapid growth, but I suddenly receieved a tug on my sleeve, so I decided to keep this information in the back of my mind. I then turned my head to look at my sleeve, and I saw Aaliyah and Sophia looking at me with upturned eyes. They didn''t say anything for a while, so I decided to take initiative and ask. "...what?..." "Give us a hug!!!" Sophia suddenly shouted and they both suddenly pounced at me like a leopard, because we are not to far apart, I didn''t have time to react and was pushed down, I flailed around and shouted. "What''s the meaning of this, stop, let me go!!!" Sophia and Aaliyah suddenly held me down, and surprisingly, Elena suddenly joined the fray. I could get up if I use enough strength, but since we are inside a carriage, I''m afraid of hurting them, especially if I used to much strength. "Wait, where did you get that feather..." I said after I saw Sophia, Elena and Aaliyah pulled out a feather out of god-knows-where. "Hehe, you don''t want to know, now hold him down tightly girls, it''s time to see some reaction out of my dear little brother here." "Hehe, you can count on it, I have never seen brother laugh, so this would be a good opportunity." "Don''t think badly of us Sol, you just can''t stop a group of curious ladies." They said with a mischievous glint in their eyes. My face turned a bit pale in fright, I always knew those three were quite a curious bunch, but this will not be good for me. But even if they''re girls, I still can''t let them do as they like to me, this would hurt my pride as a man. So with eyes filled determination, I lifted both of my legs up and locked them on Sophia''s waist. The three of them then starts faltering for a moment because of my sudden action, but a moment is enough for me to take back both of my hands from Elena and Aaliyah. I then pounced back at them and now the three of them are right under me. Luckily, the carriage is quite spacious, so there was no need to worry about them getting hit on the head by the carriage''s walls. Then with a mischievous grin, I took the three feathers that they held and said. "Now, it''s time to give the three of you some punishment, now... let''s start with the foot." The faces of the girls turns pale in fright, they tried to fight back and shake me off, but because of my overwhelming strength, their efforts were all for naught. On the whole way to Flumine City, a sound of 3 different girl''s laughter and screams with occasional evil laughter could be heard from Sol''s carriage. ..... After the amount of time it takes to drink a cup of tea has passed, I finally let go of the three of them. Currently, Sophia, Aaliyah, and Elena is sweating and gasping for air while making an occasional laughs with red faces. On the other hand, I''m currently smirking evilly while staring at the three of them. I then turned my head and looked out of the window while sighing before making a smile filled a mix of glee and melancholy. ''So is this what it feels like to live a normal life?'' ..... After a few minutes passed, the city finally came into view, at the same time, the girls have finally recovered, but whenever they saw the feathers that I''m currently holding, they would shiver slightly and look away. I just let out a chuckle when I saw their reaction. The carriages then entered the city, and our carriage parked near a place near the examination area before we went out of the carriage. After mother and Aunt Liza went out of their carriage, we proceeded to the registration table. Reaching the table, this time the receptionist is a man with a pair of glasses and sharp black eyes. After getting me and Elena registered, we proceeded to enter the examination tent. On the way, I looked down to the number plate I''m currently holding a wooden plate with ''Number 81'' written on it. Wondering which element I would have affinity with, I subconsciously tightened my grip on the wooden plate, luckily, the plates are enchanted, so it''s rather durable, but I surprisingly managed to make the plate make a squeeking sound, I smiled wryly and made a reminder to myself to control my strength better. Since I already saw how the examination is done, I didn''t bother to look at other people''s results since it doesn''t involve me, so I spent time talking with the others. But a certain examinee caught my attention. "Number 75, Walter Ritz." Looking closer, he has fiery red hair with brown eyes, his body has a basic build, this proves he has minimal body training, but his attire, that seems to be a robe, looks quite needlessly expensive with all the golden silk used to sew it. He proceeded to walk to the stage with an arrogant demeanor, walking with long strides and chin raised high up, he gazed at other people as if he is an emperor that is currently looking at a dirt on the ground. This caused me to lower my evaluation of him. "Walter Ritz, the youngest son of duke Yoltar Ritz, his land should be at another city, but he is visiting us today for some reason, and... he is Elena''s cousin." Aunt Liza suddenly said. This information startled me and I subconsciouly took a quick glance at Elena. Currently, Elena has a sour look on her face with knitted brows while looking at Walter. She then suddenly took a glance at me before giving a start and looked away. I then looked back to the stage after letting a sigh. ''Their relationship seems to be quite bad, especially with their polar opposite personality, but I guess I shouldn''t bother her about this until she want to talk about it.'' With that tought, I focused my attention back to the stage. Currently, Walter is standing on the stage and about to touch the crystal ball. Suddenly, when Walter touched the crystal ball, it let out a blinding yellow and red light. The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement. In reaction, the audience squinted their eyes and let out astonished gasps, but because of my eyes from the naturally strong elf and draconian race, I can still see clearly. I then enhanced my eyes with mana to use my elf racial skill,¡¶Spirit Eyes¡·, Currently, there is a bunch of earth and fire elemental orbs inside the crystal ball. It seems because of the elements that is sqeezed in together, it caused qualitive change on the elemental orbs and made them to materialize for a moment and let out a bright light. When the light subsided, I unenhanced my eyes and the others starts to open their eyes. Walter that is on the stage, currently has an arrogantly haughty expression on his face. "Earth and Fire Element, High Affinity." Unlike 3 years ago, the examiner calmly stated with a flat tone, but the old mens on the back of the stage is currently whispering to each other. Walter then went down the stage with an even bigger arrogance. After that, the examination continued, until it''s finally about to be Elena''s turn, she seems to be quite nervous. Her legs are shivering, and her sky blue eyes kept looking left and right. I then walked up to her and gave her shoulder a tap, Elena then reacted with a jolt and turned her head to look at me. "Don''t worry, you''ll be fine, even if your affinity is bad, I''ll still train you in the art of bows." I encouraged with a faint smile. Elena then reacted with a nod before giving a faint smile that looks like a blooming flower. "Number 80, Elena Fricies." Elena then walked to the stage while many people, especially males, gazed at Elena. Most of them seems to be some vulgar gazes. It is quite natural, after reaching the age of 8, Elena have grown beautifully, her silky silver hair have reached her back and a pair of round sky blue eyes that looks like a gem. Her dress also paired with her looks and made her look more beautiful, silver white gloves that accompanies her silver dress with sky blue hues to the bottom of the dress made her seem as if she came out of a painting. Looking closer, I can see a hint of red and nervousness on her face. I sighed to myself and decided to help her. Silently activating a small part of¡¶Dragonification¡·, I start radiating a small amount of killing intent to people that is currently looking vulgarly at Elena. Because of my originally strong killing intent is amplified by the skill, even a small of part of my current killing intent could make people hard to breath. The people I radiated my killing intent at starts to turn rigid and their faces turns paler by a few shades. people that was vulgarly looking at Elena then starts to look away, so I retracted my killing intent from them with a smirk. They won''t be able to trace back the killing intent back to me since I made my killing intent trace back to another place as a bait, so if those people aren''t masters, they won''t be able to find me. But even if they are, it won''t be easy to track the intent back to me. I then returned my attention back at Elena, her nervousness has disappeared together with the hint of red on her face. I let out a sigh of relief before making a faint smile and refocusing my self at Elena''s examination. Elena then walked up to the stage and proceeded to touch the crystal ball. After Elena''s hand touched the ball, the crystal ball, it released a brilliant blue, green, and a warm light that seems to be filled with life and vitality. But surprisingly, I can feel a certain different type of energy, it feels pure, extremely pure and unblemished type of feeling. Looking at it with my¡¶Spirit Eyes¡·, surprisingly, I can see water, wind, and life elemental orbs inside the ball, I was surprised, but only for a moment before I made a faint smile. Sadly, I can''t find what emitted the pure and unblemished feeling, but I decided to leave it in the back of my mind After the light died out, the examiner and old mens on the stage starts to recompose themself before the examine said. "Water, Wind, and... Life Element, all High Affinity." The examination area went deadly silent for a moment before the area was filled with people clamoring with excitement. "A Great Attribute user!!" "A triple elemental with the Life Attribute?!" "Every academy would be fighting over her, who is she?!" Suddenly, a voice boomed out. "Everybody, SILENCE." The examiner suddenly shouted. Because of the amplified sound, his voice caught the attention of everyone and the spectators stopped talking. The examiner then nodded and motioned Elena to get down the stage. Elena then recovered from her dazed state with a start and walked down the stage stiffly, accompanied by many stares from others. I sighed to myself and decided to help Elena once more. Once again activating¡¶Dragonification¡·, I spread my killing intent around the spectators. People have different kinds of killing intent, but mine makes people feel as if they were stabbed with countless swords and blades. But suddenly, I could feel somone tracing back my killing intent, I clicked my tounge in reaction and hurriedly retracted my killing intent. ''An expert is hiding here.'' I thought to myself. Luckily, I managed to retract my intent in time, but I won''t be able to find the person who traced my intent now, so I decided to let it be. -----Third Person PoV----- ''Hmm, who''s killing intent was it. It''s quite powerful, and that person have such mastery over it, hehe, interesting.'' A man thought to himself while walking around among the spectators. If Sol was here, he would''ve noticed that this person was the beggar looking man that sold him the stone. "Head Master Zephyrus, can you please return to your seat." A man in a suit respectfully said to the beggar looking man from behind. "Haha, Hans, I just found an interesting person among the crowds, that person seems to be an expert, this should be quite interesting." He said while returning back to the seat among the old mens. -----Sol''s PoV----- After Elena returned, we all congratulated her. "Haha, my little Elena has three affinity and an affinity with one of the great attribute. I''m so proud of you." Aunt Liza said while tightly hugging Elena. Me, mother, Sophia, and Aaliyah just watched from the side with a warm smile. After Aunt Liza let go of Elena, We congratulated her one by one, when it was my turn to congratulate her, I subconsciously ruffled Elena''s hair. When I realized what I have been doing, I can feel my blood rising up to my face. I then retracted my hand and glanced at Elena. She is currently blushing with a deep shade of red on her face. Flustered, I looked away and said quitely in a whisper volume. "Uh... congrats..." "Un..." Elena replied with a nod. The atmosphere then turned weird, until suddenly. "Number 81, Sol'' Lux Dractum." The examiner''s voice then returned us to reality. I then sighed to myself and gave Elena an apologetic look before walking to the stage. Many people threw glances at me, I could feel their stares, but I''m not really bothered by it, so I walked up to the stage with no accidents. On the stage, I then proceeded to touch the crystal ball. When I touched it, golden, black, and red blinding colored light starts to emit from the crystal ball. But surprisingly, I can feel a light emitting a feeling that disturbed my sense of time and place while another light with a sense of nothingness. Suddenly, I felt another light emanating from the orb, the light is filled with bloodlust, pure bloodlust. But the light feels comfortable for some reason. The light then starts to subside, so I looked around me. The examination ground is currently deadly silent, that even if you dropped a pin on the ground, everyone here would be able to hear it, and currently everyone has their jaw dropped until you can fit an egg into it. The first to regain his composure is once again, the examiner. He then stated in a domineering voice. "Fire, Darkness, Lightning, Space-Time, and Void Element, all... High Affinity." After the examiner said that, the whole examination ground is once again filled with clamores of sound. But I just ignored them and calmly walked down the stage. Returning to the others, I saw everyone smiling warmly at me, on the other hand, I smiled wryly at the unneeded attention from the spectators. Everyone then congratulated me before we proceeded to leave the examination ground together. We then went back to the carriage to discuss what we should do next. But mother suddenly said. "Sol, since you already went through your examination, it''s a good idea to think of which academy you want to join." I raised an eyebrow at mother''s suggestion. Commonly, people will go to an academy at the minimum age of 9. In the 5 continents, there only exists 5 schools, and all of them are located in the human continent for some reason. There are: Academy of Guldur, The Magic Academy, Academy of Maethor, The Knight Academy, Academy of Finweg The Craftsmen Academy, Aurum Academy, The Nobles Academy, and Nimbus Academy, Known as The Strongest Academy that teaches everything. Joseph joined Maethor, The Knight Academy. On the other hand, Sophia joined Nimbus Academy. After a moment, I made my decision and said. "I''ll join Nimbus Academy with Sophia." Mother just nodded and said with a faint smile. "Then next year, we will go to Nimbus Academy, you should spend the rest of the year with Aaliyah, she will be quite lonely after you leave." Mother then ruffled Aaliyah hair lovingly. Aaliyah suddenly went to me and asked. "Brother, are you leaving?" She asked with eyes brimming with tears. My heart suddenly felt heavy, so I said with a wry smile. "Yes, I will, but not today, so until that time comes, I''ll play with Aaliyah." Aaliyah''s face then turns sour for a moment before returning to her cheerful smile. "Then brother will be mine only until he leaves." She then suddenly leaped and latched on to my waist. I then ruffled her hair with a pained smile for a while before looking out to the window blankly. ..... After what seems to be about an hour, we finally arrived back at the mansion. But when I entered the mansion, a maid suddenly walked to me and said "Young master Sol, the master is looking for you." I nodded to her and motioned her to lead the way. ''It seems father will finally teach me how to cultivate.'' I thought to myself while making a grin. -----Chapter 13 End----- A/N: Hey~ Sorry about the super slow release, I got super lazy and my naming sense keep bothering me, so yeah, forgive me for that, and I will try to atleast release 1 chapter per 1 week if possible, so that''s it for now, best regards~. Chapter 14: Cultivation and Second Meeting Chapter 14: Cultivation and Second Meeting -----Sol''s PoV----- After the maid guided me to father''s room, she bowed and left without a word. I took a quick glance at her and shrugged my shoulder at her actions. I then stared at the room''s door in a daze for moment before taking a deep breathe and entering the room. Inside, I can father''s usual room that looks like an office, but this time, there is a praying mat in the middle of the room. Currently, father is sitting in a lotus position on the praying mat. He is currently in his Draconian form with shiny silver scales with crimson hue. But looking closer, father''s Draconian form seems to be a bit weaker compared to mine. When I walked closer to the mat, father''s eye lids slowly opens, but I can still feel father''s dragon eyes that''s filled with sharp bloodlust. "Change to your Draconian form and sit in a lotus position on the mat." I complied and did as father said. Closing my eyes, I activated¡¶Dragonification¡·and scales starts emerging from my skin, while senses heightened considerably. "Try sensing the Qi in the air, but use your mind and soul, not your senses. Imagine that Qi is water, while the your bloodlust is another type of water, and then combine them into another type of water before absorbing it like air." I then tried to do it as father said. Closing off my senses, I only felt emptiness, as if the world is no longer there and there is only me in the world. After what seems to be 5 minutes, I lost my sense of time, as if I have disconnected from the world and entered a brand new realm. If Sol''s father knew about Sol''s current state, he would be stunned speechless by this should be impossible event. Sol''s current state is a state that only came out a few times in history, longed by every cultivator and is treated as a myth because of its rarity, Qi World Fusion State. After entering this weird state, I can finally sense and feel the Qi of the world, but weirdly, it feels as if I can see Qi in a gaseous form. I then tried probbing the gaseous Qi, and suddenly, the view suddenly changed to the one arround the Qi I probed. If I have to describe it in another way, it''s like opening another eye that can see the world in another perspective using Qi. I then emanated my bloodlust and the star energy inside my body while trying to control the Qi in the atmosphere. But I surprisingly found out that it''s ridiculously easy, as if the Qi is happy to follow my orders. I was dumbfounded for a moment but I then regained my composure and continued to try to do it as how the skill described. I then tried fusing my star energy and bloodlust with the Qi that I have controlled, but I soon found out that it''s harder than how it sounded. Qi, star energy and bloodlust are not the same, so they naturally repel each other like water and oil. Clicking my tounge, I start trying to comprehend the fusing process of the Qi, star energy and bloodlust. After around the time it takes for an incense stick to burn passed, I finally found a connection between the Qi and my bloodlust aura. I then use that connection as rope and tied both energies together before the energies starts to fuse together. Not long after, the process is finally finished, and the combined Qi entered my body. My senses then starts to return and I slowly opened my eyes. The first thing I saw after I opened my eyes is father''s gaping mouth and a hint of red gas around my body. Not long after, the gas then slowly starts to dissipate and father finally recomposed himself. "Truly worthy to be called a Divine Bloodline, the purity of your fused Qi is of the highest level, and even your comprehension ability is abnormally high, I guess this should be something from your past life." Father then sighed with admiration before continuing. "Now you have reached the Apprentice Stage, it won''t be long before you manage to reach the Mortal Stage. The Apprentice Stage is only when you are learning to absorb, store and circulate Qi. But during the Mortal Stage, you will learn to use the Qi to strengthen the body and use Qi externally to use it on Techniques. Now, let''s talk about what will happend after this since your talent is to big for us to hold you here, especially since the Goddess Virs herself sent you here for a mission." Father then took a deep breath and closed his eyes to rearrange his mind before opening it and said. "Sol, since you are going to learn cultivation and magic at the same time, I reccomend you to join Nimbus Academy that teaches every possible subjects including the only school which teaches cultivation, it is also where talented people go, including your sister, Sophia. But I won''t force you, it''s your decision." Hearing that, I almost burst out laughing, but I managed to suppress it and made a grin. I then inclined my head back and said with a flat tone. "Actually father, we already talked about it, and I have decided to go to Nimbus Academy, so no need to worry." Father was dumbfounded for a moment after hearing that before he came back to his senses and laughed out loud. "Hahaha, good, very good, that''s my son." Not long after, father suddenly stopped laughing and made a serious face that looks a bit downcasted, I knew father is going to tell me something important so I perked up my ears with seriousness and a hint of curiosity. "Now, I... no, your ancestors, have a few requests, it''s a request that is given to every descendant with high talents, it''s your choice to accept it or not." Father then made a sigh filled with sadness and anger. "We hope that you could take revenge for us, so we can have back our pride as a Star Asura Draconian, we do not want to go back to the people that have driven us out, all we want is to settle the scores, dominate all the draconian elders, or even better, the elders of the Great Mountain Council, they who have abadoned us, must pay the price for their actions." After father said that, he unconsciously tightened his fist and emanated killing intent, resulting a loud crackling sound. I then suddenly relized that I was unconsciously emanating a killing intent and bloodlust. ''I guess this is how it feels like have pride of your ancestors.'' I nodded to myself before saying with a solemn tone. "Don''t worry father, I swear upon my pride and name that I shall complete this mission in this lifetime. Since they have insulted and driven our race out, they have naturally insulted me to, so I shall make them all pay and suffer." Father then took a deep breath and retracted back his killing intent before saying with a smile. "Very good, I''m sure our ancestors will be proud to have you as our descendant. Now, our ancestor have a second requet. Before that, I will tell you something. When our ancestor ran away from Sacra, they faced many trials that almost made our clan destroyed, but luckily, in a moment of danger, our ancestors met a clan that was willing to help them, the kitsune clan, they are one of the races that have a voice in the Great Nature Council. So our ancestors requested for their descendants to repay their benevolance no matter what, even if it''s life threatening." A sigh then came out father''s mouth before he continued. "But I do hope you will cherish your life more than a favor and request." Hearing that, my heart felt warm, so I replied to assure him. "Rest assured father, I''ll try to retain my life as best as possible." "That''s good then, now you can return to your room, you should take a rest and train tomorrow." "Then I will take my leave now." Saying that, I left the father''s room and walked back to mine. On the way, I decided to check all the new information I ignored all this time.

I was surprised when I saw an extra affinity, but I can make a guess what my extra affinity is, but I decided to put it in the back of my mind together with the unreadable titles. Focusing back to reality, I realized that I unconsciously arrived in front of my room. Pushing the door open, I see my usual room with a medium sized bed, a table set, and some book shelfs at the edge of the room. There is a window that allows me to view the courtyard. On my free time, I sit there while reading book or watching Aaliyah playing there. ''So I will be leaving this place after a year.'' I then threw my self on to the bed like a bag and reminced about all the events that has happend. Slowly, my consciousness slowly starts to fade before I fell asleep. Suddenly, I saw a flash of light that made me unconsciously tighten my eyelids for a while before slowly opening them. Looking around, I saw a nostalgic room of white, the same one that I saw before entering the world of Viria. "It''s been a while Yuki, or should I say Sol?" Turning around, I saw the woman, or should I say Goddess, that sent me to this world as her champion, Virs. She looks the same as when I saw her all those years ago with her usual beautiful smile. "Yes, it sure is Virs, I''m quite thankful that you brought me here." Hearing me calling her by name, she made a pout and said. "Hey, I''m your Goddess, at least call me that or use honorifics." Hearing her childish tantrum, I made a slight chuckle while she just made a sigh. She then made a serious face which made me perk up my ear. "Well, the reason I called you here is about why I sent you to Viria in the first place, we''re going to talk about the champion war. The war will be held about 18 years from now, so you have a lot of time to prepare. The war will be held in a large unhabitated island far from the continent. When the time comes, you will be transported there with a teleportation magic and the rules will be explained there. Now, do you have any questions?" "Every god only have one champion right?" "Yes." "Then can a god or their champion make an alliance with another god or champion?" "Yes, but there can only be one winner, so in the end, they have to choose or fight it out." "Then will this war require killing?" "I do not know, but if there is, they will be revived and sent back to the continent." I was surprised at the lax rule, I still have some lingering doubts, but I decided to keep it in me. Suddenly, a thought flashed in my mind, so decided to ask her. "Virs, can you tell me about my titles and affinity?" Virs then made a questioning face before her hand did a few movements. When her hands finally stopped moving, she stared at empty space with hands on her chin while nodding to herself. She then suddenly made a surprised face and glanced at me then back to the screen a few times. After a few minutes, she finally stops and turned to me, but I can she a bit of sourness in her expression. "I can''t tell you about your title, but your slumbering affinity should be either Divine or Destruction, but seeing that you have no holy-like feeling, it must be Destruction." Hearing that, I smiled wryly and shrugged my shoulders. "Well, your talent is really amazing, even the system admits it, and you have affinity with 6 attributes." "Why thank you for your humble praise madam." Virs laughed a bit from my sarcastic reply. "Fufu, your welcome, but as a compensation for being unable to tell you about your titles, I''ll tell you a bit about the Destruction Affinity. But first, I will explain about Divine and Destruction affinity. These two attributes can be powerful based on their user''s emotions, if a person is a very kind hearted, he or she will recieve the Divine attribute, and the more kind hearted this person is, the stronger the attribute will be. But for Destruction attribute, it''s a bit different, it''s more like the affinity chooses its user, every god except the Destruction God can not control this attribute. This attribute is rather dangerous, unlike the Divine attribute, this attribute will urge you to kill people and bring destruction, the more destruction you bring, the more powerful the Destruction attribute in you will be, but when it gets to powerful, the attribute will try to take control of your mind and make you its vessal. Destruction attribute is known as the strongest and the most dangerous attribute, so please becareful Sol, and also, this is my advice to you, not as a Goddess, but as a... let''s just say a friend. Try to kill as less as possible, contain your bloodlust and killing intent so that your attribute don''t take control over you. I have seen many people with the Destruction attribute dying because of this attribute, and I don''t wish for you to be another one of them." She then gave me with a worried look, but I just replied with a smile. "I''ll try." She then kept making a worried face before turning around with a sigh. "You can go back now." As she said that, I was engulfed by a ray of light before disappearing from the room of white. -----Chapter 14 End----- A/N: Next time, on Master of Weapons, Goku...*cough* Sol will learn how to use magic for the first time(?), find out more next week(literally), on Dragon B-...*cough cough* Master of Weapons!!! P.S: Is Sol saying cheesy lines all good? Chapter 15: Magic Chapter 15: Learning Magic -----Sol''s PoV----- Opening my eyes, I see the window next to my bed shimmering with light. Slowly, I lifted my body and got down from the bed before slowly walking to the window. Opening it, I can see the morning sun going up the horizon. Yawning, I stretched my body before walking groggily to the bath. Inside, I dived into the already prepared tub water. A few minutes later, my mind starts to clear up from the sleepiness and my memories of the meeting with Virs starts to resurface. ''I guess I need to hold back from killing.'' I then lifted my head up and looked at the ceiling of the bathroom in a daze. Suddenly, someone knocked on the bathroom''s door which caused my mind to return from its dazed state. "Young master, breakfast is prepared." "I''ll be out of the bath in a moment then." I answered the person which seems to be one of the house maids I then went out of the bath and dried my body with a towel before putting on a plain white shirt and trousers. Going out of the bathroom, I saw the maid standing there. When the maid heard the creaking sound of a door being opened, she turned to look at it. Seeing that I came out of the bath, she bowed respectfully before turning around and motioning me to follow her. I gave a light nod before following her. Not long after, we finally reached the dining room. The maid knocked at the door before saying respectfully. "I have brought the young master." "Let him in then." Father''s reply sounded out from the other side of the door. The maid then opened the door before motioning for me to enter. After I entered the room, I hear the sound of the door closing. I then sat down on the dining table together with father, mother, and Aaliyah. Apparently Sophia already went back to the academy after I was called by father since her leave time is almost up. After I sat down, everyone finally starts eating. The breakfast in this world is similar to the food in my past world, but surprisingly, I found out that rice is a luxury food which mostly only nobles are able to eat. It seems like the agriculture in this world is quite lacking too. After finishing my food, I was about to go back to my room to try cultivating. But suddenly, mother called out my name as I stood up. "Sol, can you come here for a moment?" Mother and Aaliyah sat across me and father, so I had to go around the table to get to mother. But either way, I still went to her while wondering to myself what she would ask of me. When I got closer to mother, I noticed that she seems to have something on her lap, but because she covered the item with her hand, I couldn''t take a clear look which caused my curiosity to increase. When I''m finally about 1 arm length away from mother, she took out the item on her lap and held it out to me. Looking at it, it seems to be a single thin book that looks rather ragged. "Since you already have your affinity examined, it''s time for you to learn how to cast magic. These books can teach you how to cast magic and the basic spells of all affinities." Hearing that, I grew excited, but I then noticed something and was about to ask mother before she suddenly cut me off. "I know what you want to ask, your father doesn''t have a single book about magic in his library since he doesn''t have talents for it in the first place. Actually, most demi-humans and draconians doesn''t have talent for magic in the first place, but since you have the blood of moon elves and draconians within you, you are still able to do magic." I was quite surprised after hearing that, especially after knowing that father doesn''t have talent in magic. It caused me to unconsciously took a glance at father. When father noticed my glance, he gave a wry smile before he hung his head, as if he already resigned to his fate. Seeing that, I made a wry smile before turning my head to look back at my mother. "Thank you mother." I said to mother with a smile, mother then made a smile before allowing me to go. As I left the dining room, I decided to go to the courtyard to study. After walking for a while, I arrived at the courtyard and decided to start studying. In the first part of the book, it explains the theory of magic. Magic is an action of bending the laws of the world by controlling the magic energy of the world and make it do your bidding. From what is known, everything in this world is constructed of a certain energy, and magic energy has the ability to control a fraction of this energy, the higher the affinity a person has with the magic energy, the more effective will their magics be. But after a deeper research, it''s found that each things is controlled by different kinds of magic energy, that''s where the affinities comes in. The 7 affinities can control material of their respective elements, but on the other hand, the 4 great affinites can control laws of the world. But after a long time, the researchers still wasn''t able to understand 2 affinities, the Destruction and Divine affinity. The researchers called it the chaotic affinity since it was known as the most uncontrollable affinity, these affinities are also suspected to involve heavily on emotions. After that, the book explained how to use magic. Apparently, unlike cultivating, we can just use external or internal magical energy to do magic, mages and sorcerers usually prefers external over internal magical energy, but the amount of controllable external magical energy is all based on the mind and spirit of the person. On the other hand, internal energies are To cast a spell, it requires sufficient magical energy and a solid image of process of the altered laws, but because most people can''t make the solid image of it, they replaced it with incantations which resulted in the power of the magic to be reduced. After reading it, I proceeded to the basic spells. After skimming through the book, I finally found the basic spells. Flame light, basic Fire spell. Stun spark, basic Lightning spell. Ball of Darkness, basic Darkness spell. Solid space, unranked Space-Time spell. This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it. Void space, unranked Void spell. Basic rank spell is a rank under the apprentice rank spell, but the difference in power is worlds apart. Basic spells are mostly a spell that can only be used for daily necessities like to get water or lighting a fire. On the other hand, apprentice spells can be used for offensive, but it is rather weak. First, I tried to use the spells with incantation. I then raised my palm and chanted the incantation "¡ºSpirit of fire, bestow me with light of fire¡»¡¾Flame Light¡¿." Then a candle light suddenly showed up on top of my palm. I then flicked my arm which caused the flame to dissipate. Next, I tried to use the spell with no incantation. I first focused on controlling the magical energy, since I have¡¶Spirit Eyes¡·I have a big advantage. I then willed the fire energy to group on the tip of my finger, causing the temperature to slowly rise until a candle flame once again showed up on it. Seeing this, I nodded approvingly before flicking my hand and continuing to the next spell. Once again, I tried willing the lightning energy to focus on the tip of my finger, but because of the thin existense of lightning energy, it took quite a while. After a while, a small crackling golden orb showed up on the tip of my finger. Looking around, I found a little squirrel near a pine tree that''s currently trying to eat an acorn. With a mischievious grin, I threw the golden orb at the squirrel. The squirrel was to busy trying to crack the acorn to notice the golden orb that''s currently flying at it unil it was about a foot away. But because of how fast the orb was, the squirrel only had time to let out a squeak before it was hit by the orb. After the squirrel was hit by the orb, it froze in place like a statue for a second before it let out a loud sqeak and climbed up the pine tree to hide. I unconsciously made a chuckle when I saw the squirrel''s reaction. Not long after, I continued with my experiments. During day time, darkness element orb is almost non existent, it can only be found in a place that is isolated from light or a shadow And since Ball of Darkness is a darkness type spell, I need to use the shadows as a source of darkness element, since the only light isolated room is inside the mansion. Looking down to my shadow with my¡¶Spirit Eyes¡·, I can see a small amount of darkness around it. Darkness magic has a sub-magic class called shadow magic, shadow magic focus solely on the art of using shadows like blending in with it or entering the world of shadows, because of that, shadow magic is mostly used by assassins. I then tugged on the darkness energy on my shadows and then turn them into the the shape of a ball on top of my palm. The hard part is the need to isolate the darkness energy from the light energy around it. Slowly, an orb of inky darkness formed on top of my palm. Even though the magic is of the darkness element, it doesn''t really give out an eerie feeling. Ball of Darkness is actually only used to make a source of energy for a stronger darkness spell or when there is source of darkness energy around. I then dissolved the spell before continuing to the spells of the great affinities. The spell of the great affinities are vastly different than the spell of the normal affinities. Most of the spells of great affinities doesn''t have a rank, because the prowess of those spells increase as the invoker of the spell gets stronger. And the great affinities can be rather hard to use since the spells of these affinities literally bends common sense and the worldly laws. Time can be reversed, a life can be returned, the dead can be made to move, and you can even erase an existense. The biggest problem people have with the great affinities is how hard it is to even have the talent to use it. I then proceeded to cast the spell of Space-Time magic, Solid space, this spell is actually only used to harden a space, but if a mage us strong and skilled enough, he can make the hardened space be harder than the hardest metal in existense which made it an unranked spell. Finding Space-Time energy is very easy since it basically exist everywhere and anywhere. So I just willed the energy to fuse together and compress on top of my palm. After a while, I stopped adding energy to the top of my palm. I then tried to lift my palm, but it met a resistence, but after I add a bit more force, the resistence was destroyed and I can see the Space-Time energy starts to break apart and spread out. The results was rather decent, in the book, a beginner usually only managed to make a hardened space that''s crushable by a light touch. Next is the Void spell, Void space, this spell is known as a spell that most void mage is only capable of doing because of the big difference between Void affinity with the other 3 great affinities. This spell is basically a spell that devours things and erase it from existense, but the things that is eraseable is all based on how capable the mage is. A mage that just learned void magic usually can only erase a single grain. So I looked around and found a rock the size of a palm, I then focused on the void energy and tried making them move to the rock. When the void energy came in contact with the rock, the rock slowly starts to erode and finally disappears. This spell can be made in a larger scale by compressing the void energy and make it into a larger form, but I decided to refrain from doing it in case it hit the garden. I smiled contendly at the result of my magic experiments. Looking at the sky, I saw that the sky already darkened, so I decided to return to my room to read and play with Aaliyah until dinner time before going to bed. I''m still rather excited to learn more magic, but as for going to a school, I''m still wondering about how it would be now. -----Chapter 15 End----- A/N: *BOOOM* *makes a cool entrance* Hi people, chapter 15 done, next chapter will be either about Aaliyah''s daily life or maybe just directly go to the Academy arc, but meh, gonna flip a coin and see what it will be. On another note, gonna make a side fiction, don''t know what it''s called, but it will be fun, for me atleast, kekeke. That''s all from me now. New Fiction, Next arc and... stuff Ok, so I decided on a new fiction called Celestial Fox, if you want to ask why I''m torturing myself by making a new fiction, well... I''m not an M, so this is not torture, but let''s just say it''s because I feel like it. And I''m not giving out spoilers and hints about it, MUAHAHHAH. *cough* On another note, I will work on Aaliyah''s interlude on a later chapter, so I will make the academy arc first. Next, people must be questioning my release schedule after making a new fiction, well... I actually have no schedule in the first place, and for why I keep saying I will make a chapter at least once a week, that''s just to pressure myself. It''s just based on how much my brain and imagination can help. This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience. Well, that''s all for now, but on another note, I will tell you all one thing, I''m a lazy guy, so don''t hope for much. -Ryubii P.S: I won''t delete this post later, to lazy Chapter 16: Chaos[APRIL FOOLS] Chapter 16: Chaos -----Third Person PoV----- In the Shadow Forest, a teeth gounding sound of a metal hitting metal rang out as a groan resounded. Suddenly, the sound stopped. At the location where the sound came from, a man with a pair of piercing blood red eyes that''s draped in a black cloak is currently staring at the moon lit sky. "My freedom has returned, and now I shall make all you low lives pay for sealing me in that accursed coffin." After he said that, he suddenly disappeared with only an echo of a malicious laugh left behind. At the same time, in the Dractum mansion, Sol that was sleeping suddenly snapped his eyes open as he stared out the window. ''Why do I have a bad premonition about tonight.'' Wrinkling his brows, Sol got up from his bed before changing to his daily clothes. Suddenly, a thick killing intent that caused even Sol to shudder covered the whole mansion. The servants in the mansion all felt their heart tightened and their body bounded in fear. The only people that could move are Sol, Aaron, Felicia, and the mansion guards. But all the mansion guards could feel their hearts tightening from the killing intent, barely getting their body to move as they wanted. Felicia decided to stay in her room to protect Aaliyah that''s currently whimpering in her sleep because of the flooding killing intent, while Sol and Aaron went to the courtyard together with the guards to examine the situation. At the courtyard, everyone kept their ears perked up and eyes peeled so they could notice all sound and movement. Suddenly, a silhouette bolted out of the Shadow Forest, causing many of the guards to gasp in surprise. When the silhouette landed on the courtyard in front of where everyone is gathered, the moon light illuminated him, allowing everyone to see his features. He has a pair of piercing blood red eyes, on a pale face with a jet-black hair. He is wearing a black tailcoat suit which compliments his looks. But the most notable thing about him is the pair of sharp, canine fangs protruding out of his lips. "Good day- excuse me, I mean night, to all you humans. My name is Tembrin Vlad, a vampire. Now, I''m here for a meal, and I''m currently rather hungry, all of you can go dry yourselves of your blood, or I can kill you and drink them. I will give all of you 10 seconds to co-" Before the Tembrin could finish, silver daggers flew towards him. Seeing this, Tembrin''s eyes went wide for a moment before it squinted as he dodged all of the daggers. But silver blades suddenly came aiming towards his neck and head respectively. The one who was wielding them are the father and son pair, Aaron and Sol in their Draconian form. But surprisingly, Tembrin calmly dodged the blades like a passing wind. "Then I''ll take your blood by force." Suddenly, Tembrin disappeared, when everybody looked around, they found that a guard was lifted above the ground as Tembrin slowly sucked his blood from the guard''s nape. Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings. In an instant, the guard turned into a dried corpse before he fell. Seeing this, Sol rushed towards Tembrin as fast as he could, but Before Sol could reach Tembrin, he already disappeared and reappeared behind another guard and the process repeated it self until all the guards in the courtyard turned into a dried up corpse. "What a delicious blood, I haven''t felt this sated in millenias." He said as he laughed maliciously. He then suddenly glanced towards Aaron and let out a chuckle before disappearing, when he reappared, he is already behind Aaron, before he Aaron could do anything, Tembrin already bounded Aaron and sucked him dry of blood. "NO!!!" In a fit of rage, Sol activated all his skills, causing his physical strength to increase multiple times and a star field to appear as he charged towards Tembrin. Seeing this, Tembrin was shocked for a moment before laughing in excitement. "Haha, what a monstrous young man, this young and already having a domain, sadly, you''re not the only one with a domain." As he said that, a sea of blood appeared around Tembrin and Sol. The sea of blood restrained Sol''s movements, causing him to slowly be bound by the sea of blood and his rage to recede. As his physical enhancing skills all deactivated, a torrent of excruciating pain flooded into Sol''s senses as he grit his teeth to not let out a single scream. Seeing this, Tembrin laughed contendly, as if he''s taking pleasure from Sol''s misfortune. "Haha, what a talent, sadly you''re dying by my hands today young man." Tembrin then once again disappeared and reappeared behind Sol. With his weakened, Sol could not stop Tembrin from plunging his canine fangs deep into Sol''s nape and slowly sucking him dry of blood. Sol could only grit his teeth and wait for his second death. Not long after, Sol''s eyes dimmed and Tembrin retracted his domain and chuckled. "You have such a delicious blood, as a token of appriciation, I will not kill the rest of the people inside the mansion." After he glancing towards the mansion, he once again disappeared, only leaving the echo of a chuckle in the air. The next day, many cities of the 4 continents was in turmoil. The leaders of the continent announced the appearence of a great vampire ancestor that was sealed millenias ago by the ancestors of the 4 continents. ----Chapter 16 End----- A/N: APRIL FOOLS!!!! Ahahahah, welp, I had my fun, I rushed this april fools chapter and made it in 1-2 hour, amazing right?

Arc 2: Academy Arc Chapter 16: Onwards to Nimbus Academy -----Sol''s PoV----- It has been a year since I had my magic affinity examination. I''m currently on my room changing to a two piece shirt and a pair of jeans. Confirming that there was nothing wrong, I proceeded out of the room, but as I was about to close the door, I threw one final glance towards the room I have used for 9 years before finally closing the door. As I proceeded towards the drawing room, I couldn''t help but to reexamine my status windows.

Unfortunately, I didn''t learn new spells since the book mother gave me only has beginner and common unranked spells, I can only learn better spells from the academy. On the other hand, my cultivation is going smoothly, I was even told by father that my cultivation rate is quite abnormal, I could even breakthrough to the Early Mortal Stage if I didn''t focus on my magic training. Focusing back to reality, I finally reached the drawing room. Entering the room, I saw mother, Sophia, Aaliyah, Elena, and aunt Liza. As usual, father is busy with whatever his work is, father and mother never told anyone about what his work is, not even the servants or my siblings, it''s quite suspicious, but I don''t think father is an evil person, so I''m not worried much. "Ah, Sol, you''re here. Go take a seat, we have something to tell you." Mother suddenly said when she noticed that I entered the room. I''m rather curious to what mother have to tell me, so I took a seat before mother continued. "Well, It looks like Elena will be joining Nimbus Academy with you, so you both will be going together there with Sophia." I was rather surprised hearing that. Subconsciously, I took a glance towards Elena. Coincidently, she was staring at me too for some reason, which caused our eyes to meet for a moment before Elena hurriedly turned her head away. I was rather confused why she did that, but I just shook my head and said to mother. "Then I will take care of her and make sure we reached there safely." "Good, Sophia will be guiding you both there. The trip should take around a week, while the academy examination will be in a month from now, so you will have time to get used to the town where Nimbus Academy is situated." Mother then stood up, followed by everyone else. Exiting the mansion, we stood in front of the carriage that we''re going to ride to get to the academy. "Take care of yourself in the academy and study hard." Mother said with moist eyes. But before I could reply, I felt something touching my abdomen. Looking down, I saw Aaliyah that''s looking up to me with tears streaming her violet eyes. "*sniff* brother, you have to visit often and play more with me." "I''ll visit you when I have the chance, so don''t worry." I then threw a glance towards mother. Seeing this, she nodded in understanding and took Aalliyah off me. Aaliyah put up a resistance at first, but after mother whispered a few words to her, she went quiet for a moment before throwing a glance towards me, I was wondering what mother told her, but she suddenly ran off into the house which made me even more curious. Unfortunately, when I looked at mother, she just acted as if nothing occured, so I decided to put this event at the back of my mind. I then entered the carriage followed by Sophia and Elena. Not long after, the carriage starts to move, looking out the window, mother and aunt Liza is currently waving towards us, so we waved back until the mansion is out of sight before going back inside the carriage. -----Third Person PoV----- As Sol''s carriage passed through a road, not far away, there stood a middle-aged man draped in a sky blue robe using a spyglass, staring towards the carriage. "Is he really one of ''them''?" As the man questioned, a man draped in a black cloak suddenly appeared out of thin-air. "I''m not sure, but he should be. An appearence of talented kids when the Divine War is near sometimes signifies the appearence of a god''s champion." Hearing that, the blue robed man stood up and said. "Then we must find out which god''s champion he is, if he is not affiliated to the God of the church of light, Lychnus, then he must be exterminated." As he said that, he and the black robed man disappeared at the same time. If an expert saw them, it could be seen that they''re actually moving towards Sol''s carriage with a speed that will be hard to follow with the eye sight of a normal person. At the same time as the two middle-aged men moved, inside the carriage, Sol''s pair of eyes that was closed suddenly snapped open and let out a fierce light as his lips formed a sneer. ''So they finally made their move, if you think ambushing us while I''m still here, you can keep on dreaming.'' Sol then suddenly jumped out to the top of the carriage. Before Elena, Sophia and the carriage driver could gasp in surprised, Sol already released his killing intent as he used¡¶Dragonification¡·on his legs before leaping towards the pair of men. The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. On the other side, the two middle-aged men felt Sol''s killing intent, causing them to involunterily shudder and pausing their movement for a moment. But before they could contemplate over it, Sol suddenly strucked the man in black cloak on the abdomen with a spear. Seeing this, the blue robed man surprisingly didn''t stagger, instead, he carefully sized up Sol from a distance while holding the hilt of the sword sheated on his hip, signifying how well trained the man is. Because of the momentum of Sol''s leap, they didn''t stop until the spear strucked the bottom of the cliff that the two men were standing on. When Sol''s spear strucked the cliff, it resulted in a dust cloud while cracks that looked like spider-webs permeated through the cliff walls, reaching 5 meters in length. Surprisingly, when the dust cloud dissipated, cracks can be seen all over Sol''s spear. When Sol removed his hands from the spear handle, the spear slowly crumbled into pieces, but Sol only stared what''s left of the spear for a moment before turning his head to look towards the man in sky blue robe, not giving a single glance towards the man draped in a black cloak. Noticing Sol''s arrogant act, the blue robed man wanted to get the black robed man to attack Sol from the back. But when he looked closer, he realized that the black robed man, with a giant hole on his abdomen, is already dead while his eyes are wide open, as if he still could not believe how he died even after death. When he looked back towards Sol, he saw Sol staring at him with detached eyes, as if he''s looking at a lower life form. This caused cold sweat to flow down his back. "Speak, who are you and what are you after, I''ll consider to give you a painless death if you confess." Arrogance, plain arrogance, but the blue robed man knew that Sol has the rights to be this arrogant. Even so, the man is determined to at least bring Sol down with him, even if it meant death. This is how faithfull, or blinded towards his faith this man is. Without even replying, he charged towards Sol with full strength. Seeing this, Sol smirked, as if knowing this would have happened. "Fine then, you will be a great punching back for me to train." Sol then held out his hand and did a grasping motion as a 2 meter black staff appeared out of thin air before charging towards the blue robed man. After Sol trained this skill for years, he learnt that he could just instantly summon a weapon out of his dimension without even opening a gate. The collision of the two generated an explosion that caused countless trees to be uprooted from the ground. The explosion was then followed by the sound of two weapons colliding against each other about tens to thousands of times. Suddenly, a sharp metal colliding against metal sound rang out as Sol and the blue robed man separated from each other. The two of them already have their shirt ripped apart from all the after effects of their weapon''s collision. Sol''s body is covered by countless sword cuts, but it can be seen that Sol is still fine from the fact that only a small amount of blood leaked from the sword cuts. On the other hand, the blue robed man is in an even worse position. His body is covered by black and blue bruises with a few patches of blood, while trickle of blood flowed down the corner of his mouth. It can be seen that he is already out of energy from how his pair of arms and legs are currently quivering. "Last chance, speak now and I''ll let you die painlessly, keep being stubborn and we can keep on going." Sol said with a detached voice as he struck his staff down. The blue robed man knew that Sol is serious, but he couldn''t let him know that he''s from the Church of Light, especially if he''s a champion of a god that''s not affiliated with the God of Light, Lychnus. So he asked. "Wait, you''re a god''s champion right?" When Sol heard his question, he was dumbstrucked for a moment before his eyes turned sharp. "So what if I am? And how did you know about god''s champion." Hearing that, the man was rejoicing inside, but at the same time, fear crept up his heart. If Sol is a champion of another god, especially an opposing one, it will bring great troubles to the church of light. "Then which god''s champion are you?" But instead of answering, Sol suddenly disappeared from where he stood. Before the man could register what had taken place, his back already collided with the hard ground as a black staff is pointed towards his throat as a chilling, devil-like voice floated into his ears. "I''m the one who asks questions here, now tell, or I will push this staff down your throat and turn it into a mush of flesh." Sol then pressed the staff deeper into the man''s throat. Seeing this, the man shuddered, but he still managed to pull out the courage to ask. "Are you a champion that''s affiliated with the God of Light, Lychnus?" As Sol was about to reply, a light flashed inside his mind as he mentally made an evil grin. "Yes, I actually am, I didn''t know that you''re at the side of the God of Light, Lychnus, forgive me." He then removed his staff from the man''s neck before holding out his hand with a smile. The blue robed man was quite surprised at the fact that his guess was actually correct, but he froze for a moment before suspiciously looking towards Sol. But how could he see through Sol''s acting skill that can even get him an oscar reward in his past world. After a few moments of them staring at each other, the blue robed man finally accepted what Sol said. "I''m sorry about attacking you then." "It''s fine, so can you tell me everything now?" "Yes, that black robed man and I is a devotee of the Church of Light. Every few decades, the gods will always initiate a Divine War and tell their oracles about it. Unfortunately, the gods cannot tell us who their champion is, but all the champion the gods have will always have a monstrous talent. So we always look into every talented child that appeared when the Divine War is near. Now, we should get you to the main church so you can train until the Divine War is here." As he was about turn around and lead Sol towards the church, he suddenly felt a sharp pain on the back of his head. The last thing he saw before fainting was the evil grin that looked akin to a devil''s on Sol''s face. "You have my gratitude for telling me that, now I will keep my promise, I''ll give you a painless death." He then struck on the man''s throat heavily with the staff, turning it into a pile of bloody meat paste. Then, without even turning back to look at the blue robed man, Sol walked back towards the carriage as his killing intent surged. ''Church of Light? Who ever you people are, you will have to see if you even have the ability to kill me.'' -----Chapter 16 End----- A/N: Starting next chapter, I will start using third person PoV more, using first person is hard. Chapter 17: Floating Cloud City Chapter 17: Floating Cloud City After killing the blue robed man, Sol went straight back towards the carriage. But on the way back, he realized that he left Sophia and Elena without an explanation and protection, so he increased his speed as his heart is filled with anxiousness. But when he went back, he saw that the carriage hasn''t moved an inch. Seeing this, he sighed in relief, but he still felt rather bad for Sophia and Elena for making them wait for him without an explanation. Suddenly the carriage door was pushed open as two female silhouettes rushed out of the carriage. "Sol, what were you doing?! Leaping off the carriage without warning us of anything, we want an explanation!" As Sophia and Elena stood before Sol, blocking his way, he could only smile wryly at their domineering act. "Let''s enter the carriage first, I''ll explain everything inside." He said as he walked around them and into the carriage. Sophia and Elena couldn''t say anything but follow Sol into the carriage. After they entered, the carriage starts moving once more, but instead of explaining things, Sol leaned forward and asked. "Do either of you know anything about a God''s Champion and the Divine War?" Elena revealed a puzzled expression when she heard that, while Sophia on the other hand, she made a startled expression before her face turned grim. "So Elena doesn''t know anything, but Sophia do. Then sister, can you tell me what you know?" "I don''t know much, I only heard a bit from some of the teachers in the academy and from reading a few historical books. God''s Champions are the as the name implies, a champion of a God that will act for them since Gods cannot enter the mortal world. Nobody knows how the Gods chooses their champion. On the other hand, Divine War is a battle of Gods, nobody knows the reason for the war or what it actually is, but every God will have their champion fight for them in this war. The war happens every few centuries, the last Divine War was said to happen 5000 years ago. Does these things involve the reason why you leaped out the carriage?" Sophia inquired as her face darkens. "More or less, we were followed ever since we left the mansion. I didn''t make a move since they didn''t move either. But they suddenly leaped towards us with a faint killing intent, so I decided to intercept them, but since they were too fast, I didn''t get the chance to inform the two of you. Anyway, I found out that our tailer are followers of the Church of Light. After I questioned one of them, I found out that the Church of Light have found the champion of their god, so they are currently trying to eliminate the champion of other gods." He then slumped his back against the carriage''s cussion as a sigh escaped his lips. "But, if that''s the case, why would the-" Before Elena could finish her words, Sophia said in a heavy voice. "So they''re after your life?" In reaction, Sol just shrugged his shoulder as he smiled wryly. "Wait, why would they be after Sol''s life?" "Ah, we never told you, Sol was supposedly reincarnated by the Goddess Virs, he was sent here to be her champion." Hearing Sophia''s calm reply, Elena stared blankly towards her. "W-Wha-WHAAAAAT?!?!?!" In the continent of Orion, where the Earlshide Kingdom is situated, there is a single city that even the royal family couldn''t control, the Floating Cloud City, also known as the Free Kingdom of Cloud. Even though this city is located in the Orion Continent, this city is governed by the publicly admitted top school of the 5 continents, Nimbus Academy, which made the city almost seem like a small kingdom. The city, just like the academy, doesn''t discriminate against races and have it''s own government system. This is the source of the name Free Kingdom of Cloud came from. Floating Cloud city is situated at the foot of highest known mountain in the Earlshide Kingdom, Cloud Piercing Mountain. The academy on the other hand, can be seen floating above the city. Nobody knows how the academy could float above the city, but it is already publicly accepted as one of the mythical things of the city. Currently, many carriage and pedestrians can be seen moving towards the gates Floating Cloud city. Usually, even if the city is famous, not many people would come crowding like this, but the fact that Nimbus Academy is accepting new students always brings a crowd to the city every year. But currently, a certain carriage can be seen moving unhindered into the city. Many people would usually complain about this, but surprisingly, not even a soul dared to complain about this carriage''s outrageous act. "Just by showing the badge the proves you''re a Nimbus Academy student could already give you this kind of treatment, how amazing is this school is exactly?" Sol said as he sighed in awe. When their carriage arrived at the outskirts of the city, Sol and Elena contemplated about the really long line, but Sophia just pulled out a badge which made the crowd all made way for them which caused both Sol and Elena to stare dumbfoundedly towards her for a while. "Well, the school is publicly known as the number one school in the kingdom, but rumor has it that among other continents, Nimbus Academy is still known as the best academy. So it is not much of a surprise to get this kind of treatment just because you''re a student of the academy. Some students even got arrogant because of this, but the ones that went out of the lines are already dealt with." Sophia said as she played around with the badge on her hand "We have arrived." After the words of the carriage''s coachman floated in, the carriage came to a halt. After the three of them exited the carriage, Sol and Elena glanced around their surroundings while Sophia whispered something towards the coachman before the carriage left the city. Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. "Let''s go, we will be staying at the inn that the city already prepared for everyone that''s going to take the academy''s entrance exam." Sophia said as she walked towards a certain direction while Sol and Elena followed behind her. But after walking for a while, they realized that the city is an astonishingly large. Seeing their surprised reaction out of the corner of her eye, Sophia chuckled quietly. Then, as if she was able to read their minds, she explained. "Floating Cloud city is said to be created by its founder to make a place where all races can live in harmony, so he tried to create a city that can accommodate more than thousands of people. In the end, he succeeded and even managed to make the city to be publicly accepted as a kingdom. The founder of the city is also famous for being the founder and first headmaster of the Nimbus Academy." As Sophia kept explaining things about the city and academy, they finally arrived at their destination. Seeing the appearance of the ''inn'' that was provided by the academy as their accommodation caused Sol and Elena to be dumbstruck. The ''inn'' could only be described with one word, ''Compact'', it is only at the size of a small hut and from its appearance, it could only accommodate one person. Seeing their dumbstruck expression, Sophia let out a muffled laugh as she explained. "Don''t let its appearance fool you, the hut is said to be created by the 2nd headmaster of the Nimbus Academy, he is well-known as a Space-Time mage that created many wondrous things. This hut is said to be one of his greatest creations, it is a gate to a pocket dimension he created using his magic and craftsmanship. The inside is far larger than this shabby looking hut." Sophia then motioned them to follow her as she entered the hut. Sol and Elena looked doubtfully at the hut for a moment before following Sophia into the hut, but when Sol was a few steps away from the hut, he activated his¡¶Spirit Eyes¡·and examined the hut. What Sol saw caused him to gape in shock. Many Space-Time energy accumulated around the hut, forming symbols and shapes. But the thickness and purity of the Space-Time energy is so high that it left him dizzy. Shaking his head, he recomposed himself and unenhanced his eyes before proceeding towards the hut. When Sol took a step into the hut, he felt as if that the world was turned upside down, causing his mind to be jumbled for a moment and almost tripping himself. As Sol regained his balance, he glanced around the room he entered. The walls, flooring and ceiling of the rooms are all made out of wood. Various paintings are hanged around the room and a reception table can be seen across the door where Sol currently stood at. Currently, in front of the reception table, there stood two silhouettes of a girl. Looking closer, it is actually Sophia and Elena that is currently talking to a woman that seems to be the receptionist. But currently, it can be seen that the two of them seems to be rather troubled, so Sol decided to walk closer to see what happened. "What''s wrong?" Sol asked as he tapped Sophia''s shoulder. With a start, Sophia swiftly turned her head. But when she saw that it was Sol, she sighed in relief before explaining. "It looks like some of the room dimension is having a few distortions, so the amount of rooms have been reduced. We were asked to sleep in the same room to save the amount of available room. But every room only have 2 small beds" When Sophia said that, a hint of blush appeared on her cheeks. Hearing this and seeing Sophia blushing, Sol finally realized what the problem was, so he lightly sighed before saying. "It''s fine, you two can sleep on the bed, I can either sleep on the sofa or on the floor." "But-" "No buts, you''re both girls, so I need to be a gentleman and sleep somewhere else." Sol said with a grin before asking the receptionist for the room key. The room key is in a form of an identification card, the receptionist explained that the card is some sort of pass card that will teleport the owner to the assigned room. After leaving the receptionist table, the three of them went to a giant dais with a cloud engraving on it. On the dais, there is a pedestal where the card is supposed to be placed for identification. After they stood on top of the magic circle on top of the dais, Sol placed the identification card he received on top of the pedestal. Suddenly, light starts to emit from the magic circle that slowly starts to brighten until it caused the three of them to involuntarily cover their eyes. As the light brightened, they could feel the world turning which. After the light from the magic circle starts to dim, they slowly opened their eyes. The room can be said to be quite luxurious, it has a pair of small bed with a small table in between. A sofa with a coffee table in front of it and a private bathroom in another room connected to it. The room''s flooring, walls, and ceiling is all made out of wood out of wood just like the lobby. But the difference is that the wood inside the room seems to have a calming effect towards the mind. ''This room is a great place to train and meditate.'' As Sol tought of this, he saw an inconspicuous magic circle at the corner of the room. But before he could even take a step closer to it, his mind starts to get drowsy from the travel. At the corner of his eyes, he could see Sophia and Elena not focusing themself from the drowsiness. "We should sleep, all that travelling was really tiring." Sol said with a yawn before throwing himself on to the sofa. Hearing Sol''s words, Sophia and Elena snapped back to reality, after they finally registered what Sol said, they moved their body sluggishly towards their respective beds before their consciousness drifted off. -----Chapter 17 End----- Updates, rewrites, being lazy. Okay, so many of you might be questioning what I was doing all this time. Well, actually, I''m not going to lie, I was being lazy and procrastinated. I played a few games, read some novels, yada-yada. All in all, I''m being a lazy bum :D Jokes aside, after looking at my fiction again, I felt quite disappointed at my past self because this idea is actually made in the fly so it is quite low quality with low foundation and I wrote this just because an online friend was writing a fiction too(Library Magic by TheGirlWearingGlasses(shameless advertising hohoho)), but seeing that some people liked it even like so, I plan on rewriting it. Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings. BUT(there is always a catch people!), I don''t know when it will be ready, and I don''t know if the future me would even be willing to continue it, so don''t hope for much, and the title might be changed too so, again, don''t put your hopes up because I''m a lazy person. Oh, and as for that other series I was planning, I saved it, don''t know if I would continue writing it for now, but yeah, keep waiting, because the future always has surprises, one way or another. - not very sincerely, your lazy author, Ryubii~ I AM NOT DEAD... So here are updates! Alright, so most people must not be wondering why I have disappeared since I clearly stated I might actually get too lazy to write. But actually, yes, I got too lazy to write! But that is not the only reason. I matured after my hiatus and thought that my story is very crappy. I did not really plan much when I wrote this story since I am... well... young. But even then, I still find writing original stories fun. Unfortunately, at that time, I also planned on writing another story. So instead of rewriting this story, I decided to go write a new one. I talked about this before, and this story is called Celestial Fox, a story more focused on cultivation than fantasy unlike this one, it also has a female lead. Currently I managed to write 13 chapters even with my innate laziness, which is quite an achivement. But for now, I will only post chapters in a site I am currently borrowing. When I finally managed to finish 15 chapters, I will also post them at RRL. This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there. I might try rewriting Master of Weapons in the future, but do not get your hopes up, that is what you must know before you start reading my stories. Oh, and another thing. I also stopped writing Master of Weapons because the status screen is too bothersome. I thought it was cool in the past, but it just became annoying at this point. So when I rewrite the story, that will disappear. https://celestialfox.club Above is the site link if you wish to read my new story. But if you want to read it on RRL, wait for a month or a few weeks until I manage to push out 15 chapters. That is all from me. - The Lazy Author, Ryuubii.
