"...but you will have to do what I say, alright?"
I was confused as to what my mother meant at that time but I quickly found out what it is and before I knew it, 3 years have passed. Holy crap, never thought I would be this happy to grow up, what the hell.
Every day was so hectic that I don't think I would recover. The lessons continued on, without magic class since we couldn't find a good teacher, but everything was so packed to make sure that my brother and I can finish everything in less than 3 years. And yes, my brother got caught up in this mess. It was a good thing that he really didn't mind it that much.
Of course, that wasn't why it was hectic these past 3 years. It was because of my mother. She gives me trials and challenges every chance she gets and each and every one of those was so hard that I don't think I have to worry about getting killed while adventuring.
Also, what kind of parent chucks their child to a den of hungry dragons that is at least S-Rank for each one? Of course, I have gotten a lot stronger ever since I have been given these trials but it is still annoying!
Anyways, enough of that. Let's now go to the information side of things. I have learned a lot these past few years like why my parents acted like that, what the hell are celestials, how the f*ck my skill has status, pieces of information on incarnations and constellations, and a lot more.
Starting with why parents turned sicko mode the moment the [Angelic Lover of Lust] or 'Ava' as Aurelia calls her, it was because of their old, old history as official incarnations. I read a lot of books in the hidden library and came across some rather interesting books. Starting off, my parents were f*ckin God-slayers!
Ok, to explain, my parents, seemed to be hailed as heroes or something similar by the whole empire because of their achievements and such as defeating demon lords, fighting chaos, and stuff like that, but in actuality, it was more interesting than that.
Apparently, they were official incarnations many centuries ago and have participated in the [World Scenarios] and have fought a lot of godly beings, like constellations. That is why they had a fable that has the name of shattering stars or something since it is them destroying constellations. And constellations are actual gods so it isn't too far of a stretch that my parents were God-slayers.
But why did my parents immediately act like that the moment Ava sent an indirect message? It was again because they used to be official incarnations. As an official incarnation, constellations are either your allies or your enemies, nothing in between. And they just happened to be targeted by many constellations in their time so them acting like that was pretty normal.
I just never knew that my parents were actually that strong. I knew they were strong but I didn't know how strong exactly. In fact, they are as strong as some of the Narrative-Grade constellations. Though, they can't become constellations themselves since they have sponsors and they just didn't want to as well.
Speaking of constellations and incarnations, apparently, if you become an official incarnation, things like in ORV will happen to you. From scenarios to shops, travel to various dimensions, fighting or befriending constellations, and all that.
I also found out that Ava has more than one modifier and Aurelia said that she could have become a Celestial if only the [8th Celestial] has finally appeared.
I also asked why was her modifier the [Angelic Lover of Lust] and apparently she is quite a lesbian type where she even had a relationship with one of the Demon Gods of Lust, which this particular relationship contributed to a lot of her beginning fables and that's why she has that modifier. So you have to be careful at what you do and what kind of stories you get if you plan to become a constellation, huh.
Now, Celestials, these guys are f*ckin nuts. I can't even fathom how strong they are. From Aurelia's simple explanation, the difference between the highest gods/constellations and larvae to the Celestials is basically nothing. Which shocked me.
Even the lowest among the constellations or even demi-constellations are strong enough to destroy the entire universe and the strongest among them is strong enough to destroy entire multiverses which is just a small portion of their aura and yet these so-called Celestials are strong enough that the difference between gods and a mere bug is nothing?!
I can't even fathom how they existed or how they got that much power in the first place. Good thing these Celestials are very laid-back and don't harbor any bad intent to the world because goddamnit, they are strong enough to bypass probability and the [World System] as a whole without any consequences at all, which even the constellations struggle with.
So enough of that overpoweredness, let's talk about how my unique skills have statuses. Apparently, the unique and ultimate skills that are part of an official series or set are said to have the highest chance to develop an ego and therefore turn into a Manas, which a Manas is basically an independent and separate existence from their owners.
So it means they contain enough authority and potential to be able to acquire stories on their own and become constellations themselves that they are considered by the [World's System] to be able to have some kind of status.
Long story short, these past 3 years were hectic. There is so much more to say but I can't even bother to say the rest anymore. Also, it was a bit weird that my sister never went home these past few years but it seems she is enjoying it a lot in school and is too busy to come home. She still does send letters every single day. I thought it was a bit cute that she is enjoying school.
"Notice. The constellation [Angelic Lover of Lust] says that you should start polishing your techniques more and earn more fables."
"Notice. The constellation [Interstellar Sword Bastard] agrees and encourages you to start making your own sword techniques."
"Notice. The constellation [Eternal Night and Rest] says that you should choose a sponsor already."
"Notice. The constellation [Frozen Lotus of Order] agrees with the constellation [Eternal Night and Rest]'s statement."
"Notice. The constellation [Angelic Lover of Lust] highly disagrees and says that the incarnation should not pick a sponsor."
"Notice. Many constellations want you to become stronger."
"Notice. Many constellations want you to acquire more fables."
"Notice. Many constellations want you to choose a sponsor."
"Notice. Many constellations-"
"Shut up! I already told you that I won't choose a sponsor no matter what! I'm also going to polish my sword techniques and make a brand new one later so calm down! Also, I was already planning to acquire more Fables along the way so no need to repeat it!"
"Notice. All of the constellation's mouths were shut."
"Good. Goddamn, if it was this hectic to be an official incarnation then I wouldn't have registered as one. Maybe I should cancel-"
"Notice. Many constellations ask you to not do that-"
"I'm kidding, just keep the indirect messages a down low because it is affecting my mental strength, you know?"
"Notice. Many constellations nod in agreement."
God, I wish it was this simple to shut them up every time. If anyone was wondering why I now have so many constellations following me, this is the side-effect of becoming an official incarnation.
I was given money by my father and since he used to be an official incarnation, he has access to literally everything in the [World Scenarios] which made registering a lot easier.
Now, the moment you finished registering, you will be automatically evaluated by both the [World Scenarios] and [World System] by how strong you are, the fables you currently have, your skills, your potential, and everything. After this, you would be given two rankings, one is what your threat level is and the other is how strong you are currently as an incarnation.
Normally, if it was the first time you registered as an official incarnation, you would just be given either F or E or maybe if you are lucky, D-grade as an incarnation since you just became one recently and you probably don't have many great fables but I managed to get B-grade.
This shocked everyone including some constellations who just happened to see my evaluation. After all, it was already rare to have a Historical-grade Fable with my age but I managed to get two Historical-grade Fables.
One is of course the [History Grade Fable: Conqueror of Ice Dragons] that I managed to get after killing so many high-level ice dragons in a short amount of time but I also got a new one from snapping my parent's senses back to normal, where I got the [Historical Grade Fable: The One Who Calms Down Disasters]. It was pretty fitting considering my parents were literally disasters or catastrophic levels.
Because I got two Historical-grade Fables with the addition of some Fable Fragments that I have like the [Unexpected Devourer] while being an 8-year-old, let's just say I became quite the young star among some constellations. Of course, there were more impressive ones but all of them are at least 20-50 years old already and it was rare to find a child that has acquired two Historical-grade Fables in a short amount of time.
This led me to here, where I now have a lot of constellations, some are pretty strong as well, following and commenting on my every move. Good thing I'm still considered a child to these constellations despite being 11 years old already or else it would have been hard for me to deceive them with cuteness.
Anyways, enough of all that tiring nonsense, let's do what I said I will do, make my own sword techniques. Now, I can't say I hadn't already made one since I seemed to have developed one in these past few years from training under my older brother, who is now 14 if you didn't know, but I can't say it is fully made by me as well since most of these movements comes from my own interpretation of my brother's style.
So I wanted to make a new one, maybe two more, or in short, I want to make multiple sword styles that I can call my own. I already made the foundations of it but I can't seem to make things work. I was stuck in this state for a while, wondering how I can-
"Hey, Tomo! What are you doing there? Training? Should I help you with anything?"
A voice was heard in the distance. A voice that was so familiar that I will recognize the owner of it the moment I hear that voice. I think I just found the jackpot, my older brother Miles.
