[Childhood Arc]
The coldness covered the rest of my body, I felt my consciousness fading, but in the darkness i saw a light. I felt my legs again and I walked towards it instinctively
I felt the warmth of the light hitting me... "Welcome mortal... this place is what most people would call heaven" I saw a godlike figure before me, it gave off a feminine presence for some reason "I'm the goddess that manages the cycle of life and death... but in your case, I accidentally triggered your destiny to die early"
I was confused "What do you mean?"
I saw a ball of light descend in an instant "My name's Sung Ji-ah, remember me? tintless one... or should I say... Takeo?" I felt a warm smile underneath her blinding glow
"I don't think you're responsible for anythi-" she shut me up covering my mouth with her hand "Shh! I told you... I'm responsible for you and your family's untimely
Deaths. Don't worry, I took care of them before sending them to the cycle of reincarnation again on Earth, of course"
My eyes sparkled "Does that mean?!" She frowned "No, you three can't be family again since it's already been done in the past life..."
I had a disappointed look "Oh..."
she patted me on the head "You're one of the many that I'll be giving a double edged blessing and curse of retaining the memory of your past life... although I can't bring you back to the cycle of Earth, since the governing god of earth has already destroyed you from the in and out... that's why I pushed you, out of pity"
I turned my look at her "Will I ever be able to get back to Earth?"
She looked at me confusedly "Why would you want to live there again?"
I smiled at her "Because my family's waiting for me"
Her look became stiff and just can't believe "I'm sorry... but it's impossible... Earth has no magic whatsoever so I can't transfer your soul back even if I wanted to"
I glanced at her "It's fine, please take care of me"
She hugged me "Thanks for the time you spent with me back on Earth, I'll grant you a few blessings for compensation"
Everything suddenly became dark
People are talking all around me "!!:&-&9(!?1$89("I heard a woman speaking in a language that I don't know "Ba!281@*?]€[==\••€*{+]" and a man too
I opened my eyes and it was perfect clarity, unlike the eyes I had in my past life. I looked around and saw a woman was actually holding me, she was laying in a
dark rose colored bed that looked like something only the super rich people can afford "Aehnkdk" I can't talk properly... probably because I was just born recently, but judging this woman who is probably my mother is an important person, she's just casually talking to the butler who seemed to be in his late 20's. His notable trait is his red eyes, while my mother's noticeable trait is everything
Her porcelain-like skin, snowy white hair and her heterochromia colored eyes. The left is an ashy-white color, while her right is a bright-crimson red
I also noticed her perfectly white teeth that looked like pearls
And a pair of sharp fangs
They suddenly stopped talking and turned their look at me
My mother smiled and gave me to the butler looking person... naturally I couldn't do anything so I just went with him
He went down a really long stairwell just going down
[A couple of hours passed]
We arrived at the bottom and there's a trapdoor, he placed me down on the side and opened it, when he picked me up I felt a chill run down on my spine.
I looked at our surroundings, it was a library looking place that had a chaotic type of weather with lightning clouds on some parts, and just pitch blackness on some. He placed me down on what looked like the center of the library since the book shelves circled on this place, he smiled at me and wrote something on my forehead using the ashes around me.
He backed off and started saying things in a weird chanting way,"&:!1$$,8-??!?!?
3902$4@2"/"&;&2)&1!;'c" then the ashes around me gave off a faint glow
I suddenly felt like I was in trouble.
The ashes shined brightly with a purplish hue, my skin felt like it was burning and started ripping off. I cried wanting to beg for him to stop whatever this is.
It went on for 5 minutes, I felt like I was going to die, but when I thought he was gonna stop already he took out a bottle of red thick liquid and poured it on me.
The pain became unbearable I just screamed in pain "S-SAP D-DIS!" I tried to speak but since he couldn't understand me he just gave me a dumbfounded smile. I felt my consciousness fading…..
I passed out
Everything is black, But before me I saw a faint glow growing bigger by the second.
The glow grabbed me "I'll give you my blessings. Takeo Or Yggdris, the heir of the Royal vampire family"
When I woke up I was laying on a crib.
I looked at my body if I was rotting or burnt but, it was just like my mother's skin, and I noticed an important looking crest placed on the back of my hand. I wonder what it means
I can't really move around, so I'll just try turning over
*turns over* success! now I'm... gonna sleep
[1 year passed]
I finally learnt the language after a year of just listening to their conversations, and I learned that my name's "Yggdris Argent Du Eclipse", and the country I'm living in is known as "ShadowBourne" or the country of the vampires, ruler of the undead, and the city I'm in is the "Blood capital", or Royal capital in human terms
And I also found out that I'm the heir to the throne of the vampire queen, Cristina Argent Du Eclipse
I was walking around the Castle when I noticed a room... I opened it "Hello?" I greeted in their language, heh nice one me
I peeked behind the huge door and nobody was there... the sun filled the room with light and I entered it light heartedly
I was basking in the sun when I heard my Mother's butler scream "PRINCE YGGDRIS! H-how?!"
I turned my look at him, I wanted to talk but it's been a while since I spoke to anybody "Me.... p-p-playing.... here" oh god I stuttered
But the butler's face is still white from shock for some reason "Prince Yggdris come here..." I ran up to him
He picked me up "How can you walk on daylight without taking damage?"
I tilted my head "because it's just light?"
He chuckled "No no, I mean vampires will turn to ashes on broad daylight and I'm surprised someone was careless enough to not cover the windows"
He was walking up to my Mother's study room
"Please refrain from going to the library during the daytime Prince Yggdris"
That was his advice before leaving
The room was nicely lit and the windows were covered with thick curtains
I looked around the study room and saw some books about this world. Guess I'll kill some time by learning new stuff about this world
Let's start off with the alphabet!
[2 hours passed]
Nailed it! I'm not called a prodigy in my past life for nothing!
[A/N: the alphabet closely resembles his past life's letters and pronunciation -w-]

The world and its geography is kinda complicated, and only our continent, country and city is written on it, the rest are either erased or ripped off from the book... that's kinda odd
I was laying down on the couch when I noticed a book on top of the shelf gathering dust, I climbed the shelf and grabbed the book but whilst going down I lost my footing and fell from the book shelf 6 times my height.
I closed my eyes and hoped for the best and suddenly I felt a huge gust of wind grab me mid air. I looked around and it was the butler "B-BUTLER SAN!!!" I ran up to him .
He caressed my head to calm me down "There there, Prince Yggdris, what's that thing you're holding?" He said while smiling at me
I looked at it, it spells out Necromancy "It s-says! N-ne-necro!" ugh dang it, I can't speak properly
The butler stood up covering his mouth, he coughed and looked back at me "I-i see, want me to read it to you? Prince Yggdris?" I shook my head and headed to the couch. The moment I opened the book it flashed a blinding light at me, after that I felt a huge wave of fatigue rushed in my body and I just suddenly passed out
[5 Years Passed]
I'm now celebrating my 6th birthday in this world. They have 12 months and 50 days, and apparently... they only celebrate birthdays every 10 years which sucks... but I also learned that this country has made technological advancements using shadow and blood magic
The lamp posts have a defensive mechanism that eats the shadow's of the living and drains their blood afterwards. They're apparently made by using biological magic
And they're also the first to create electricity and light bulbs, but they still have no phones!!! *Cries*
No! but at least we have the leisure of having light bulbs, it's going in the right direction! While I was in my room, my mother barged in and grabbed me by my arm "M-mother?"
She looked at me "It's the day of your baptismal... we'll finally find out your status!! Aren't you excited Yggdris?!"
I smiled awkwardly "O-of course!!"
The butler turned around and coughed "What the..."
Then he fell to his knees "Prince Yggdris is too precious..."
Leaving shotacon behind, my mother raised her hand then flicked her finger
And in an instant the light flashed before my eyes and we were suddenly inside the cathedral
There's a few people in the cathedral and they walked up to my mother asking for money or food
While my mother handled it so well, I couldn't believe it. She removed her accessories and gave it to the people "Please use them wisely" she said in a smile, they all bowed down to her...
While looking at them I felt a Hand grab my shoulder, I looked to see who it is, it was a pale looking woman with white hair that seemed to be glowing "I am Agronsya, the Demon of the white cathedral. I'm the Pope of the country, young'un, please hold up your hand over the pedestal and channel your inner power to it
I walked up to the podium and hovered my hand over the pedestal as she said and channel all my energy to it, I closed my eyes and when I opened them I'm back in the divinity
"Did you have fun on the first part of your life?" That familiar voice, I immediately looked around
"Ji-ah, where are you?!"
She chuckled "I'm always there for you to be honest... but now you're baptized. I'm glad you're under my underling's religion"
Before I could even speak I was already back at the cathedral "JI-AH!" I accidentally shouted
The pope walked up to me "Show me your stats"
"I don't kn-" she groaned "Just say display stats"
I think she's a bit annoyed "Display stats"
