Numerous system notifications ran inside Aiden's head at once but he didn't pay any attention to them.
He was instead looking at the orc's body and the fallen head on the ground. He slowly took a deep breath as he saw the orc's body vanish before reading the system quests.
'Guess I have another enemy added to my future enemies list. I wonder how big this list will be by the time I become 18.' Aiden wondered silently as he decided that he would check out the rewards later on.
But for now, he could only wait for the next question but before it could come, he suddenly appeared back in the throne room.
Aiden blinked in confusion as he looked at the faces of his mother and father which were expressionless.
< Host, you will now walk on the path of becoming the greatest demon king ever. I will happily support you on this journey since you have such a major goal in front of you. > The system suddenly said as Aiden felt like crying but had no tears.
'This time, your guess might be right system.' Aiden replied as he could feel the gazes of his mother and father staring at him with curiosity.
It was as though they could see his soul which was a very dangerous thing since that would reveal some really unpleasant things.
< Host this might feel like a weird question but I have to ask you this. Have you ever rubbed the rod until the juice came out of it? > The system suddenly asked as Aiden felt like smashing it down.
'What kind of question is that?!' He asked back in a baffled tone even though his expression remained neutral.
< I asked that because if the host's parents were staring at the host's soul, they might see the host's personal self-care sessions while watching some certain species. > The system replied as Aiden took a sharp intake of breath.
'Can you pull such things out of my record too system?' Aiden asked in a slow voice.
< I can host but I don't think I want to see that. > The system replied as Aiden mentally sighed.
'Not everyone can enjoy the feeling of having it with a female. Most of us have to do it ourselves while enjoying what limited things we can get. I might as well have cursed all those who did it with multiple women while I suffered.' Aiden replied as he remembered the braggings his classmates did.
Though half of them had been lying, the other half hadn't been.
< How do you know that host? Don't tell me you used to be a secret peeper? > The system asked in what felt like an almost disgusted tone as Aiden felt like rolling his eyes.
'You should see who the males in my last year of high school were. You will then believe it yourself.' Aiden replied as the system went silent.
His mother and father still hadn't spoken anything but it looked as though they were about to soon.
< So many of them were actually the children of rich people. I believe you now host. > The system replied as Aiden sent a mental image of himself nodding.
"Aiden, where did you learn to use shadows like that?" Drake suddenly asked Aiden as his expression remained neutral.
"Uh, while being bored in my room?" Aiden decided to tell the truth though not in detail.
After all, he had learned to use his shadows more efficiently while sitting in his room.
"How long have you known to do this?" Aysel asked as Aiden was stumped for a second.
If he replied with anywhere between six months to a year, his parents would think that he had extreme levels of talent since he managed to master using shadows in such a short amount of time.
But if he replied with anywhere between two to four years, it would state that he had a high level of potential and could still grow further.
Out of the two choices, Aiden decided to use the second one.
"I have been using shadows for more than three and a half years now." Aiden replied as Drake smiled and turned towards Aysel.
"Well, I won the bet this time. You said less than two years while I said more. You better be prepared for some roleplay." Drake said as Aysel rolled her eyes.
"We should stop moving away from the topic. As for roleplay, we will see that later on but for now, let's focus on our child's abilities. Capisce?" Aysel asked as Drake nodded.
'Why does that exist here?' Aiden started wondering what other things existed in this world which were there in his previous world too.
"Aiden, why didn't you tell us about your powers?" Aysel then asked while looking at Aiden's face.
"Because I didn't want to." Aiden gave her the most straightforward answer possible as Aysel smiled.
"I guess that fair enough but now that you know about it, do you want to get stronger?" Aysel asked as Aiden shrugged.
"It would depend on what the way to become stronger is." He replied as Aysel seemed satisfied with his answer.
"I will personally teach you since your father as the fire element. I can teach you many tips and tricks which will help you use your shadows more efficiently. What do you say? Would you like to train with me?" Aysel asked as Aiden thought about it.
'I expected them to force me into it but they are actually giving me a choice. This is quite different from my imagination.' Aiden thought silently as he finally said his answer
"Yes, I would like to train with you mother."
