As Cuojue was nibbling on her cookie while she was sitting on her comfy queen-sized bed, she thought about her baby brother and suddenly recalled her birth.
***
(Nh? Whats that sound? Sounds like the voices of...people?)
Cuojue tried opening her eyes and she was greeted with a white ceiling, adorned with childrens toys that were hung, humanoid mecha, a pony, moons and stars....wait why is there a mecha hung there? And the line connected to it seems different from the other lines? Bah, who cares!
The ceiling was a colourful blue sky, it looked so realistic too. Suddenly Cuejue had the most indescribable emotion she coudn't explain...
(Wa...WAAAAAA!!!! WHAT?! IM A BABY? ATLEAST MAKE ME A TEENAGER!!! ...and I can't MOVE! I hate this...)
Cuojue as a baby had no other choice but to cry since she coudn't really control her emotions right now.
"Waaaaa~ waa~ Waaaaaaaa~"
"Shhhh, its ok darling, mummy will feed you~"
Cuojue heard a gentle voice and turn towards that direction by instinct. She saw a very beautiful woman whose hair was like the combination between the back of a rooster and a peacock, similar to the hairstyle of Mimi Yoyorozu from MyHereticAcademia. Her hair was silver in colour with a tinge of pinkish-purple streaking down the bangs. Her attractive eyes, complemented her ruby irises, she had a sharp nose with an oval shaped face with jaded skin. She had soft, pinkish lips that men would go wild to kiss. Her kind demeanor made her even more charming, giving the feeling of ease and grace.
Cuojue was stunned by the beauty but left without an option but to suck on her whitish peak.
(This is so embarrasing....)
She didn't have a mother in her past life and this was her first time sucking on the breast of another woman.
After Cuojue was fed, the beauty ordered the maid standing by the side to clean up the room. Afterwards she brought Cuojue to the garden where a man was training. His slashes were beautiful, it looked capable of cutting apart the horizon. There wasn't any sounds coming from the training blade, but Cuojue knew...that the blade was incredibly sharp.
Her rusty instinct whispered to her that the man infront of her right now was very...VERY dangerous. His back looked very familiar, it reminded her of her father before she reincarnated, his strong back, exquisite yet simple movements, eyes sharp as a hawk.
Feeling sad, she lost control and cried again.
This time the man broke out of his concentration and look at his beautiful wife's way.
He has a squared jaw, black spikey hair and bluish-purple eyes that seems to contain the galaxy add-on his long eye lashes. A long nose mixed with the dimples on his cheeks as well as pale lips made him look very attractive. His skin was fair and smooth.
(Wow, how handsome...probably the most handsome I've seen compared to my previous life where K-pop stars pale in comparison.)
"Well well well...if it isn't my beautiful wife and my long awaited baby girl. Fwwuu~ my baby girl looks very cute, in the future she might be more beautiful than all the divas out there. I even woudn't be surprised if countries fall to her beauty. Ofcourse my wife is still the most beautiful."
Praising his daughter to the heavens, he realized a fatal mistake and quickly praised his wife instead higher than the heavens. Lets leave out his embarrasing compliments.
"Alright stop it, your tongue is too gross. So, have you decided on her name?" The beauty raised an eyebrow, asking for this shameless man's opinion.
"Hmmmm, how about Cuojue. Cuojue Huang. Its a good name right?" The man thought for awhile before giving an answer.
Stunned by her husband's opinion on why he chose this name for their baby daughter, she smiled and accepted the name. Although it sounded weird since it either meant illusion or misconception, she didn't question his naming sense and went along with it.
Cuojue on the other hand, was stunned as well.
( Its surprising that there is a Huang surname in the future and my current father picked the same name I had in my previous life. Funny how this is convenient for me. I think having a new name is really bothersome, now that i have the same name when I was alive when earth was around, I don't have to stick with a new name. Thank you Mr Herald.)
She gratefully thanked the Herald for making things convenient for her during her second life. Although the person in question actually didn't do anything.

Somewhere, in the dark a transparent golden being was eating potato chips and watching the latest animes, suddenly sneezed.
(Hmm...is someone talking about me? Impossible.)
____________________________________________
After her parents were done talking and playing with her, Cuojue found out their names. Her father was named Youshi Huang and her mother was named Pugong Huang, her actual name is Pugongying Rong.
Cuojue and Pugong left the garden and headed to the nursery before Pugong left Cuojue in her craddle.
While Cuojue watch her mother leave, she remembered her system that was given to her.
(But how am i supposed bring it up?)
Suddenly a status board appeared and she heard a mechanical voice.
[Hello blessed one, I am the accension system designed by the Prognetors to aid reincarnators to get used to their new world and bring out their fullest potential. From now on you are my host. Please check your status board.]

(Huh...seems pretty basic, quite similar to games I played in the past. But why is my mental strength 10 points?)
[To answer host's question, the Herald used his powers to stuff your soul into the future which would require him to nourish your soul to be strong or else you would be rejected by time. Thus when you had a weak soul your mental strength sits at 1, however, this increased to 10 due to your soul being nourished.]
(Ohhh, i still woudn't get it anyways... but what is body cultivation?)
[Similar to your old world, there is cultivation and body cultivation means strengthening the blood, Qi, meridians, body and bone.]
(I see, but what is mental cultivation? Let me guess, its related to the soul right?)
[Yes, but its only half-right. The soul is a seperate thing and thus cannot be strengthened unless you use unorthodox methods. Mental Cultivation on the other hand, can increase your mental strength not the soul, but is still extremely difficult to cultivate. Also the reason why many fail to reach godhood.]
(Wait...doesn't this mean Im a cheat?! Would this mean that I can get to look at hot men with just my mental strength now? Like how superheroes can use their mind to see through everything?!)
Blood was rushing to Cuojue's head, barely calming down since nose-bleeding might cause a commotion.
[No, mental strength is intangible and difficult to sense, thus just consider it a lazy attribute unless you have a Mental Technique. Mental Techniques are rare since its hard to cultivate and there may be other people with special constitutions that drasticly increase their soul or mental strength, dont think your a cheat yet.]
The system spoke with some distain in her voice.
Cuojue feeling insulted, decided to hold back her curses for now. Next question.
(By the way, what is bloodline and why is it locked?)
[Bloodlines give special constitution that can provide benefits and also an extra ability called Awakening which can grant a huge burst of power for a short amount of time. But there is a backlash after use. Currently, you either do not inherit a bloodline, or is currently dormant in your body, thus its locked.]
(Then for skills, is what i brought from my previous life and what i can continue to collect and train which may or may not prove to be helpful in battle right? And why is Heavenly Deceit locked?)
[You are correct about the skill master. And Heavenly Deceit would be harmful to your body right now and you would need to reach the age of 5 to start practicing it again.]
The system slightly impressed with her to not have the brain of a monkey.
(Now the system calls me master? How rude of it until now. Anyways, seems like I'll end up regressing into a child for the next 5 years or else im bored and have nothing better to do. So, what does daily quest do? And what use is Accension Points?)
[Daily Quests would help you grow your body optimally or provide tasks based on your situation. As for Accension Points, you can use them to unlock new features or access new items from Shop. Look, once you finish todays quest you can unlock Inventory for 5AP. There is a surprise gift in there for you~]
(I can already guess what inventory does, probably to store items that i need.)
Suddenly an announcement appeared before her. [Daily Quest Complete - 5 AP]
Her eyes sparkled with excitement and hurriedly unlock Inventory.
A gift box shaped like a christmas present with red and white strips covering the whole box.
(Hehe, lets see whats inside~)
