Chapter 16 - Power and History

He had not felt this liberating sensation for the past six years. Since he had retained his memories and knowledge of his past life, he could not behave as an adult without causing suspicion so he had never been able to use the power he gained during the trials when he awakened his bloodline which was like a punishment for Raimon.

Nature is the strength of a strong person.

It was said that during the early wars against the beasts that cannibalized people many warriors died during the fights to wrest the authority of the natural powers from these super-powerful beasts.

In many cases no matter how good these people were at the end of the day they were only remembered for the natural authority they owned.

In the case of Belanus, the moment he obtained the power of the sun from a golden dragon all that was recorded was that he took the place of the Solar God, and his accomplishments as a swordmaster were forgotten.

When he realized that he had been reborn and took the final test during the ritual, Raimon became excited and asked how he should start using this power and store the source in his body. However, his worries were unfounded. Just as the power of Belanus was still available to him, the natural power he had accumulated during his earlier years was accessible in this new life.

"The only problem is that there is a limit to the amount of natural power I can use right now due to the immaturity of my body. But it's better than nothing."

In his previous life, Raimon gathered a lot of information about the genetics of the human body that can come in handy in this world. This world is fantastic as there is the career of potion master, they use natural materials to enhance the capabilities of the human body and the information from my former world may help me in this field.

Currently, the amount of natural power Raimon could use was equivalent to that of a 1-star spiritualist but would increase over time as he grew older.

Every time he aged another year, he could feel more power being generated within him. Besides, it was only natural. Raimon had not trained to increase his power or anything like that.

Therefore, he concluded that the natural power was developing very quickly in this blessed body and that the potential he had in this life may be greater than he imagined.

"The power of a one-star spiritualist at six years old. I'm sure no one else in history achieved this feat. At this rate, I will reach six stars before I reach the age of 20 at the latest."

His second life was incomparably preferable and advantageous compared to the first.

He was now ecstatic and full of joy. At the young age of six, Raimon could use both spiritual and blood power, along with the knowledge and experience of his past life the path to being a potion master was very close.

He would just have to train in swordplay.

In addition, he could now study the secret tomes of countless martial families from all over the world that the Flower family plundered. His motivation was at its peak, and it wouldn't die down for a long time.

"Heh, I am an adventurer to the core."

I never thought I would be so delighted to use a simple spell-like "Earth Resonance".

The times I could use the natural power within the family were extremely limited.

It could even be said that, up to that point, Raimon had not had any other opportunity to use spiritual power. There were almost no occasions when Raimon was alone, with no one accompanying him.

Reineza was always with him, and in the rare cases when she was not present, the guardian knights and servants were at his side. And if by some miracle, none of them were by Raimon's side, the twins would come to bother him.

Therefore, Raimon never had the opportunity to use spiritual power. Nor were there times when he had no choice but to resort to the solar flame.

Although Raimon could now manhandle the twins as if they were his servants, he could not afford to use the solar flame and be trapped by them.

If his parents or older knights found out that Raimon had used the spiritual power, his new pleasant life would immediately end at that very moment. It is very dangerous for it to leak out that a Flower descendant would use the power of the first patriarch.

It is said that when an intelligent being reaches the rank of God, the world consciousness would begin to remove it from the earthly plane preventing it from using its powers to create destruction.

In the case of beasts, the world never rejects them. That is why there are many powerful beasts and the existing Empires and Kingdoms have not been able to expand their territory in years.

"I should seal my power for a while after today."

"I can't afford to be discovered."

"But one day, I will find a way to use all the power I want. You just have to wait."

As he dreamed with anticipation, Raimon refocused on his hands placed against the wall. The sensation of power flowing through his hands and fingers and spreading across the wall gave him chills.

Ssssssss!...

And so, 10 minutes passed quietly. The vibrations of the Earth Resonance silently created dozens of cracks and fissures in the wall. Dirt and dust fell heavily as if the stone wall would soon collapse.

Ssssssss!...

The center of the wall where Raimon's hands lay crumbled into fine particles. A small hole appeared, through which Raimon could barely squeeze his body. The boy gazed at the view beyond the wall for a few moments.

There was a long old hallway as if in ancient ruins along with a large steel door in the distance with the family crest.

It would be a mistake to think that the Flower family's secret subway room could be broken into so easily.

The "Blood Castle" was a fortress that even the elite troops of the enemy clans could not easily conquer. Raimon was lucky enough to be a member of this super powerful family and reside in such a castle.

"So this is the secret subway sector that only the most trusted knights of the Flower family can enter..."

"Interesting arrangement."

Guardian knights.

They were the representatives of the family who stood at the front line, waving the clan emblem.
