He lived peacefully with his family for a year which he thought was the hardest and most embarrassing moment of his life.
He had to piss and poop inside his clothes and had to cry for milk which would have been delightful if he was older but for the young him, it was simply torture.
His sister Emi also played with him a lot. She would always sit near him and play whatever toys she had while she could come to him and poke his cheeks before running away to play with her toys again.
When he said mom for the first time when he was 9 months old; he saw the happiest smile he has ever seen on the face of his mother.
During the year, he also come to know that his mother was part of some rich family but was exiled from the family with some money which is quite a lot due to some circumstances he didn't know but he did realize that he was one of the reasons.
His aunt worked in a management company while his mother stayed home taking care of him and Emi.
She worked in a software development company until she was pregnant when she quit the job and has been jobless ever since.
From his mother, he also learned that this was a cultivation world but majority of people didn't know about it. Only the rich and ancient families knew about cultivation and had cultivation technique of their own.
There were also sects hidden somewhere unknown only appearing sometimes. All those stories that his mother told him allowed him to know quite a bit about this world.
His Family was Zen which was one of the ancient and one of the most respected families alongside Shang, Jiang, Yang and Han. They were considered the five pillars of the modern cultivation due to their rich history and amount of cultivators within the family.
The reason his surname was Ken was because his mother was exiled and she was ordered not to use their family name afterwards so she decided to use Ken as her surname.
He also came to understand the place he was in. Even though the world looked the same but they were totally different.
From his mother, he heard that the world he lived in had dimensions each needing some level of strength to enter.
Like the dimension he lives in right now. It was called the dimension of mortal where there was no qi and the people from this dimension will never be able to cultivate unless they enter the dimension of the beginning which was the dimension with weak qi where even the mortals could survive and cultivate but only few peoples in the mortal dimension knew about it.
In this world, the humans lived for average of hundred years while the cultivators could live for thousands or millions of years depending upon their level of cultivation.
He didn't get the information about higher dimension since his mother never mentioned it. He was a one year old child after all so it was understandable why she didn't tell him about it.
All the things he heard were when she would carry him around and talk about her past. He didn't learn why she was exiled from the family and who his father was but one thing he learned from the conversation between his mother and his aunt was that his mother had developed fear of men.
The only contact she had with male was him, her son. He created some theory about why that happened but didn't think further since he could spend time with her and enjoy the warmth of the mother in this life.
And like this years passed....
