Chereads / transmigration into a prince / Chapter 28 - red thread

Chapter 28 - red thread

I had actual just made three mistakes firstly I said fate instead of future secondly I didn't actually think my words and actions through and last but most importantly I completely forgot my conversation with Oz earlier.

Suddenly I felt as if one hundred eyes were looking at me then I felt a pain akin to that of an aura breakthrough I closed my eyes and when I opened them I was in a different place.

I had read about it in the books but actually seeing it is completely different I am in the hall of celestial bodies.

All around me was ivory pillars with different cosmic events and I found myself infront of a miniature yellow moon with ancient symbol which I could read as the name of the event.

Then I felt a shift in my surroundings and I was in a different room with three pedestals each one had a different object.

It was the choosing if I chose wrong I could be in big trouble and if I didn't choose I would die because after the choosing would be a trial since it would be my third bloodline.

The first object was a glass ball the second was a pair of scissors and the last was a blood red thread it wasn't that hard to choose.

A glass ball could break and a pair of scissors seems very grim when put into the context of fate and the red thread was a unique addition.

I reached my had out towards the thread and it wrapped itself around my neck but then I felt it sink into my skin and go towards my heart fuck that means...

Instantly I found myself in the inn room again but this time I felt as if I was having a heart attack like each and every cell in my body was screaming at my stupidity there was also another pain.

It was less than my physical pain but it was as if my mind was being gutted and drained of energy then Oz spoke.

"Elise! give her one of you bloodlines now!"

I looked towards Elise who was staring at me in shock and horror I grabbed her arm and activated soul shield while imagining giving it to her and suddenly the pain was reduced by half.

it was still agonising but I could handle it now and then Oz spoke again.

"you realise what is happening right?"

I spoke back in my head.

"Yes the bloodlines in my body are fighting because they are too similar and I was suffering the backlash of having too many bloodlines but why Elise and not you?"

Oz laughed and replied.

"You're an idiot because it was our body that was most affected yes it also hurt our souls a bit but our body would be destroyed if we held three incompatible bloodlines at once...

Actually you should have given her the god heart with that she would of become an unstoppable fighting monster"

After a long while all my pain eventually went away and I only had one bloodline left it's name was the red thread.

It physically manifested so it didn't work with my shield bloodline and since it passively helped my body stay healthy it was fully incompatible with the god heart.

It is a suprisingly versatile ability it's function was as close as I could of hoped for to future sight however I could also manifest it as a strong endless string from my heart that I can control freely.

It strengthened my body and added in heightened regeneration not quite as good as the god heart but it is something I can use it offensively and defensively but it isn't as good or easy as the soul shield.

However it made up for it with its true ability I could see the general fate of people I can see not their death but the actual concept of their fate it also gave me sporadic premonition dreams.

Meaning I have to pay good attention to my dreams from now on so I would have to start keeping a dream diary.

That's when I realised where I was I had just stormed into Elise's room cut myself while screaming a random sentence and gave her the power to conjure a shield.

I looked over at Elise she was staring blankly at me as if I was mad I coughed to clear my throat then spoke.

"Elise I...I just got a premonition of the future and it told me to cut myself scream some words and give you my bloodline I know it was sudden are you okay?"

Omg I am a absolutely horrible actor...wait her mouth is moving! as her lips moved her shaking voice rang out.

"Okay...then..c-can I go back to bed? I need to think"

I said of course and left her room and returned to my own my hand hurt but stopped bleeding and was nothing compared to the rest I had just gone through.

It wasn't long before morning came around and we continued Elise hadn't spoken a word since last night and we spent the time in complete awkward silence.

Until sunset when she spoke.

"thank you"

Those two words confused me and made me ask why she said that.

"why do you feel the need to thank me?"

This time she looked at me directly in my eyes and spoke again.

"Because you gave me such a wonderful gift kyle has activated his aura and is good at magic, Reginald used to be the strongest fighter we had but I haven't even been able to move my aura and I'm not as strong as Reginald was..."

she took a breathe then continued.

"But now with this gift you have given me and my future children I can serve you and protect serothor just as well as anyone"

I had no idea Elise had an inferiority complex so I spoke.

"Elise of serothor you are more skilled than any other person I have under my command just because someone has a bloodline, can use aura, swing a sword or even use strong magic does not make them worthy of being one if my commanders"

Her blank pale blue eyes changed to a look of curiosity and she spoke.

"Then what does?"

I smirked and spoke.

"Many things... if they are hard working, clever, being compassionate without being blinded with pity and even if they are well connected and above else they need to be loyal"

Elise nodded and we continued casual conversation until we went to sleep and we would need it since the capital city was so close.
