Chapter 2 - House of Victory

On a peaceful day, where everyone is passing their daily life, There is a big mansion at the edge of the town. From inside the big mansion, people could hear a woman's scream. The mansion is filled with a lot of guards and servants.

While the guard looks nervous and keeps their vigilance, all of the servants look very busy. Some of them come and go from one of the most oversized rooms in the mansion.

Inside the room, a woman has child labor. *ARRGGHHH* Once again, the woman cries and tries to push her baby to come out using all her strength. Before long, the baby came out. However, it still stays silent without crying.

The baby only feels being grabbed by a giant hand. But, he still cannot see or hear properly. Before he could contemplate his current situation, he got slapped in his butt. At this moment, like an instinct, he cries loudly. *OWAAKK*

The baby seems surprised at his own action. But all he could do was cry with the baby's voice. Finally, after crying for a while, he feels exhausted before falling asleep.

Hearing the baby cry, the people in the room feel relief before a man comes into the room hurriedly with worry. 

"Honey, how are you?" as the man looked at the beautiful pale woman hugging the newborn baby. At the same time, the nearby people with priest attire emit strange light that soothes the mother and the baby through their hands.

"It's okay. I need to rest for a little bit." The woman reassures the man.

"*Sigh* Thank God, you made it. Now, let me see my son." The man looks at the baby in the woman's arm.

Looking at the healthy and strong baby lovingly, "Welcome to the world, Angus… Angus Victory."

Few hours after that, Angus finally wakes up. He can't look or hear appropriately because he is in the newborn baby's body, while his limb also feels very weak.

As the former strongest martial artist, he didn't panic for long and retained his calm. He tried to understand his current situation.

'Urrghh… Where am I? I feel so weak. Let's inspect my body first.' thought Angus.

As soon as he tries to inspect his body, his mind feels overburdened and once again falls asleep. Soon, every time he tries to think about some heavy stuff or examine his own body, he will fall unconscious for a few hours.

Fortunately, at one month's age, Angus regained his sight and could hear properly. The moment regained his five senses. He was surprised at his current condition. 

He already guessed it a few weeks before, but thinking he reincarnated into a newborn baby is unexpected.

However, being a newborn baby is a headache for him. It's because he cannot control his body properly. As an expert of martial arts, control over his body is very important. Without it, he feels worse than being a disabled person. 

His nightmare only got worse when he couldn't control the need to poop before he could even cry for help. All he could do is resign his fate to nature.

During his time as a baby, he also tries to gather some information about his surroundings. He found that his family is quite wealthy from the house he stays in.

Although, it is pretty old-fashioned compared to modern life in his past life. But, there are a lot of servants to take care of it. Angus suspects just hiring all these servants probably already costs a lot of money.

He also found that he is not in the same world as in his past life. Because at this mansion, some people could use strange energy to help them do their task despite the low technology around. 

The strange energy is similar to chi from his previous life, but Angus is sure that it is not chi. By some fortunate event, he also learns that his current name is similar to his past life, Angus Victory. After knowing his name, he begins to remember his brother. 

His name is quite a mix of his and his brother's name. While remembering his past life, his mood becomes gloomy.

'Haa… At least now, I was reborn in a rich family. I don't need to live frugally like in my past life. Yosh.. Let's enjoy this life peacefully to the fullest.' thought Angus.

As time goes by, one year has passed since Angus was born. Even though being a baby is boring, he likes its peacefulness. He feels like his long wishes are already granted because of this peacefulness.

During this one year, he could only stay in his room in a caged bed to prevent him from falling. He often sees his family check on him sometimes.

His mother has black hair with brown eyes and beautifully white skin combined with a top model face from his observation. She always pampered him a lot and always played with him in most of her free time. Her name is Cecilia Widespread, the wife of the head Victory family.

His father has blonde hair and a slim figure with a strict classic military disposition but still retains his charismatic, handsome face. 

Despite his petty figure, Angus knows a dangerous aura hidden behind it if he is provoked. His name is Jacob Victory, the current head of Victory Family.

His parents love and care about him, giving him a sense of belonging he never knew since he and his brother were orphans in his previous life before being adopted by his master. 

He also found that he has two older brothers. The first older one has blonde hair similar to his father's hair with brown eyes. The first impression he got is that he has a cold personality and is quite a prideful person. His name is Jason Victory.

His second brother is younger and likes to prank people. He looked like a free-spirited person that had too much energy. He is a small kid with blonde hair and black eyes like his father. His name is Vergil Victory.

As for Angus himself, he inherited his mother's black hair and his father's black eyes. He also found that his family is quite influential in the military. 

Many people gave their blessing to him during this one year. This shows that his family is quite influential.

'Well, this is a good family since I can just be goofing around while letting my brother inherit my father's position. There is no way I want to get into another bloody brother fight.' thought Angus inwardly while he remembers his fight with his beloved brother.

Besides his family, Angus also learned a few word languages that people use in this world. He never heard any language that people used in everyday life from his past life. He is sure that he is not in the same world as his past anymore.

So, Angus speculates that he is in some remote region or genuinely reborn in a different world.

Moreover, he found the strange energy everyone uses that is similar to chi. People in this world called this energy mana, like in some fantasy game he played in his past.

Late at night after his birthday party, he rests inside his room alone while enjoying his peacefulness.

'Ahhh… It will be perfect if I still have my handphone with those idle games' Thought Angus while enjoying his pillowy bed.

Suddenly, He hears a sound inside his head.

"Ding.. The Idle System is fully integrated." [System]

"Starting the system in 3.. 2.. 1.." [System]

"Welcome, Host to the Idle system." [System]

"Please select opponent in next 30 second" [System]
