Chereads / Edge World: The Rise of the Vergers / Chapter 4 - Reaffirmation

Chapter 4 - Reaffirmation

"Hmm Lucius not to different from my name origin" Lucius internally lamented while showing a gentle smile, showing his acceptance of the name, looking at this Gregory and Lilith were surprised. Although they knew their child was intelligent due to his lack of crying following his arrival to this world, it also seems that little Lucius understood his name. Looking at each other the same smile was showing on their face at the same time, within the universe they lived in geniuses weren't persecuted but held in high prestige. This universe was called edge world that was solely dominated by the vergers, within this race although there was separation based on organization this was primarily based on the individuals' choices, personality and most importantly their traits.

Back to the room, within the wide space Lucius looked around curiously from his parents prior conversations he overheard within the womb he had the most basic understanding of the world around him. An as expected it was technologically developed with travel between galaxies being possible, Gregory and Lilith were tired at this moment especially Lilith yet this was only mentally as within a couple minutes Lilith complexion was completely restored to pink and rosy color fixing the only flaw present. Observing this Lucius realized his parents weren't ordinary mortals.

"Riri send a message to mother and father tell them that everything went well and their grandson have been borne healthy" Gregory said, hearing this Lilith face once again lost its color as another round of arguments began seeing this Lucius once again took back his curiosity of surveying around the room to listen the argument behind him. Apparently Gregory's parents desperately wanted a grandchild to the extent that when they found out that Lilith was pregnant she wasn't allowed to leave in a hundred meters of them, as both his grandparents strength was extremely terrifying Lilith nor Gregory could offer a different opinion. "Sigh we already compromised with having a midwife in the room you know I wanted this to be a moment between the three of us" Lilith finally gave up and said and just then the room to the door was busted open with Lucius believing it to be an enemy attack he instantly reacted and faced his would be attackers yet at this moment as a newly born Lucius wasn't able to exert an iota of power and was therefore grabbed from the arms of his mother. Looking at this Lilith sighed louder,

Lucius prepared himself for the pain of death but although the pain he expected arrived but not in the form he previously believed in front a man and a woman who had the appearance of middle aged couple appeared poking him all over. "Are you sure he is healthy, The president doctor owes me a favor I don't mind cashing it in for a second opinion", As the middle age couple said these words they continuously poked Lucius all over, obviously using their worries as an excuse to increase the time they spent touching the newborn.

Throughout all of this Lucius was quiet one may ask how could the embodiment of all the original sins be fine with all this. In this case the response would very simple adaptability, within his time fighting the forces of heaven mortals has always been the target of his schemes with numerous millennia of expertise Lucius has thoroughly understood not only the human heart but the art of adaptability as well. Taking in his surroundings Lucius simply smiled inwardly and thought to himself "A fresh start, sigh I guess being evil does pay", in his time within the womb Lucius has already reaffirmed his goal, In fact if one were to be honest his goals never changed. He wanted to be the strongest, number one above all below none within this new era and forevermore, "sigh It is a pity I couldn't kill the old man myself I guess we had different paths in the end".
