4 years had already passed since I was born in this world, during that time I was taught how to read and write the language of this world by Shiro since the age that children start academic learning here is 5
Learning magic is one thing that I love, at the time I was still an infant, I began to prepare my mind and body to be able to feel mana. Fortunately, at the age of 3, I started to feel mana and my Father seemed delighted because the age my Older Brothers felt mana was also at the age of 3
The Willoughby Duchy has the crest of a snowflake because the power of our ancestors is Snow like my name. Their family tree all has the names beginning with the letter S as a respect for the power of Snow and all their hair was the color white as a resemblance of the power of Snow that the Willoughby family possesses. Speaking of the magic that my ancestors can use, Snow magic is the pride of the Willoughby Dukedom
Currently, Father is the only one that can use Snow magic and my Older Brothers can only use up to Ice Magic
Our family's magic is divided into four phases:
1st Phase: Mist
2nd Phase: Water
3rd Phase: Ice
4th Phase: Snow
The strongest phase is the 4th Phase that my Father is the only user, now back to me, I can only use the 1st phase and can only form droplets of water if I try using the 2nd Phase, but I have another attribute I inherited from my Mother which is Light Magic
Light magic focuses on protection and recovery, this attribute is rare and difficult to master so I could only sigh internally, I remembered what Shiro told me in the past, my fated person is much stronger than me and I need to be as strong as the person I am fated to be with
I gathered my resolve and went to the bathroom, as I walked in, the smell of baby products trickled my nose. I went to the mini bathtub that has been prepared by Mary, I removed my clothes and submerged my body in the warm water
Suddenly a thought popped into my mind, I gathered mana onto my hands and a chilling mist flowed out from it I continued this until the bathroom was filled with a chilling white mist
I asked Shiro a question
"What is the current progress of my 1st phase?"
A 'ding' echoed on my mind and Shiro answered
[Calculating..., Current progress: 64%]
I smiled in satisfaction when I heard the answer, even though I am still 3 years old, my control of mana is incredible. I also have a tremendous amount of mana stored in my body and it continues to increase as I grow up
64% progress huh? I remembered what Big Brother Schlain told me before, our ancestors' 1st phase magic can freeze a person to death if they burst, they're magic power to make the mist stronger.
I dispersed the mist inside the bathroom with a snap of my finger, and my smile became wider as I looked around to only see that every corner of it has a layer of frost
"Shiro, what will happen if I use all of my power in 1st phase?"
[With your current progress, you will be able to freeze the entire bathroom up to the hallways, but if your progress became 100%, then you will be able to freeze this Dukedom]
I nodded in satisfaction at what I heard, YES, I only used an ounce of my power at the mist earlier and my mana pool barely decreased
I rang the bell beside the tub and Mary and Barnaby entered the bathroom and I almost laughed when they both shivered from the cold temperature before continuing to walk towards me and starting to clean my body
I consciously looked at my private area and remembered what I heard from the story Mother told me in the past
A MYSTIQUE person is born once in a blue moon, there are only 10% of them in the entire population. In ancient times, a war between humans and demons started, because of the extremely long war that the demons declared, many people died, whether it be children, the elderly, innocents, all of them were killed by demons and people that sided with the enemies. Although the humans won the war, their population decreased at a terrifying rate to the point that humanity is on the verge of extinction
Fortunately, a Goddess named MYSTIQUE took pity on humanity, she descended from heaven and married the remaining Emperor of the world. She conceived and gave birth to a beautiful child, and she became the Empress. The child she gave birth to, grew up to be an exceptionally beautiful man and regardless of the gender, that person can conceive and their reproductive organs has female characteristics
The Goddess lived her life happily with the Emperor as they love each other so much, the Goddess gave birth to 5 more children and she blessed humanity with her remaining power to be able to give birth to the children that she gave birth to
As her remaining years on the world decreased, she lived a happy life together with her 6 children and with her beloved
At the time she finally died along with her husband, humanity is no longer on the verge of extinction and as a tribute to the Goddess, they called the children of her MYSTIQUE, a person that can get pregnant regardless of their gender
MYSTIQUE people are extremely beautiful and the child that they give birth to is powerful, that is why MYSTIQUE people are respected but that was in the past, humanity's greed grew at a terrifying rate, they used MYSTIQUE people as a tool for producing powerful offspring to climb in social rank and do horrible things
The Goddess MYSTIQUE's sister became enraged when she learned that her sister's goodwill was abused. As a result, she lowered the population of MYSTIQUE people and they were now rarely seen, but humans never learn, whenever they got their hands on a MYSTIQUE they treat and sell them as a slave
And Snow who was currently a MYSTIQUE was protected by her family, he was given privacy and he only allows people to help him bathe and not see his naked body
Snow finished bathing and proceeded to the dining area while being accompanied by several maids, Snow's servant were all females and his parents prohibited any males to go near him, the only males that can come near him were his Father, Older Brothers, Sebastian the head Butler and his Fated person of course~
Snow happily dines with his family while being assisted by the maids; Snow's Father suddenly bought up a topic
"Snow, next month is your birthday, right?" he asked as he placed the cutlery down
Snow answered his Father with a slight smile
"Yes, Father"
His Father nodded sternly
"Then after we celebrated, we will go to the Capital City, the Emperor finally came back from the war against the Kingdom of Clifford and they won, so every noble was given an imperial decree to go the Capital to celebrate and have a meeting with the Emperor"
Snow remained silent as his Father continued discussing the topic with his Mother and Brothers
So, it's finally the time that we will meet my Fated one, Snow smiled brightly causing his Brothers to look at him quite intensely
...
At another place, a handsome black-haired boy, with eyes that seems to reflect the deepest part of the ocean, stared at the invitation of the Hyperion Empire located at the Eastern Continent
A smile formed on his devilishly handsome face as a voice came from behind him
"Noah, will you go with me?" a middle-aged man with black hair and blue eyes like him said
"Yes, Imperial Father..." the boy named Noah said
"Good!" his Father said and continued walking at the halls
Noah walked back to his room and stared at the starry night sky, he then opened his mouth and spoke
"Wait for me my Fated one..." before he turned his back and laid down on the bed
