Avery slowly looked around the room. 'This place seems so nostalgic. I can't really believe everything is real. Even if this is a dream. I hope I will never wake up from this dream.'
'I remember that our living conditions were not so good after that incident.'
'We used to be one of the top families in this country. But everything changed after we were targeted by the other families and lost all our wealth'
'Our parents died and left me and Little Yue to fend for ourselves. Even our relatives abandoned us without a second thought after hearing the news that we lost everything.'
'Good thing. I saved money before everything happened so I was able to procure the necessities and lived in this small worned out apartment'
'But, everything changed again after I made a mistake.'
'We were slowly running out of money and our next monthly rent is due next week. However, our money is only enough for food with some left overs so I decided to risk the money I have left and gambled everything. Then...'
'I lost.'
'I lost all the money and made the mistake. I should have not gambled at that time and should have found a better solution. Now, I was left with no choice but loan some money'
'But, that is where I made another mistake. I was able to borrow money, and pay our rent with the leftover money enough to feed us for some time before I need to pay the loan'
'I did all sorts of job to pay our debt, but those loan sharks cheated on us and doubled the amount due when it was time to pay'
'I was helpless and can't do anything'
'Then my sister went down as she checked up on me to see if something was wrong. But her beauty caught their attention'
'Their eyes were filled with lust as they saw my sister walk down the stairs'
'I wanted nothing else but to poke those eyes and rip them out for looking at my sister like that'
'They wanted to use her as a collateral'
'Of course I refused. But they did not listen and pulled her out of the house'
'I was angry that all I wanted was to kill them. But I was helpless. I was weak and I can't do anything'
'However, maybe heaven blessed us at that time since The Ascension happened exactly at that moment'
'Strange light rocks started to rain down on earth'
'It was truly a beautiful sight at that time, If not for the damages it caused while falling down'
'The loan sharks were also not spared and was mesmerized by the sight'
'Using that as an opportunity, I kicked them in their baby making factory, took my sister and ran'
'We were able to outrun them and hid in some dark alleyway'
'While hiding, the strange rainbow glowing like rock fell down in front of us'
'I took it and we ran towards an abandoned house somewhere in the forest that I found while looking for food in the forest'
'Along the way, I was able to procure two more of those strange glowing rocks'
'After settling down at the abandoned house, I and my sister observed those strange like rocks'
'Holding one, while the other was with my sister, and the last laying down on the floor. The rocks started to shine more brightly'
'And that is were, our life started to change until another tragedy happened because I made another mistake'
'I was short sighted and did not plan for everything at that time so I kept making mistakes'
'But that was all in the past. Now, I the ruler of the Aevum Empire will not make the same mistake and grant the life that Little Yue deserved'
'I promise. Little Yue. This time I'll make sure of it. Even the heavens won't stop me for giving you the love you deserved. For those who stand in my way, I'll make sure to pay them hell.'
