Chereads / Abyssal Firmament / Chapter 4 - New Beginning

Chapter 4 - New Beginning

It's been about five years since my birth and things have been amazing, I have learned a lot about this world and my family and the politics of things.

For starters my name is now Hakari Kenji, the Second Son of Bashar Kenji, Duke of the Black Dragon Clan, I guess Kazier wasn't lying when he said that he made sure I started with a race that doesn't give me away when I evolve into an abyssal demon.

The Kenji family was extremely powerful. While it was a Duke's house in name it was said throughout the Federation of Darkness that the family was as strong as the royal family if not stronger. I could not help but agree as I grew up we never suffered any scheme from the royals which only led me to guess that either my family and the royals had a strong relationship, or we were honestly that powerful to the point where the royals would not dare do anything, which was the truth since while it was well hidden it was known that the emperor of the federation wasn't the strongest.

The Black Dragon Clan was one of the 4 strongest clans in the Federation of Darkness, with the other 3 being the Demon Qilin, Shadow Hydra, and Lunar Dragon Clan respectively, with the Royal Family being Demon Qilins. The Federation of Darkness is one of the 5 Empires of the world called Genisis. They were the Pheonix Empire which had phoenixes, The Celestial Order which had a race called celestial which had high space affinity, The Mystical Valley which Kitsune's and Nine tailed Foxes, and finally the Arasaka Empire which was made up of humans.

There are Royal families in each of these clans but the Royal family of the Demon Qilins is also the royal family of the Federation. How that came to be I honestly don't believe one bit as it is said that the ancestors of the demon qilins were the founder of the federation of darkness, but all of that is probably part of a huge conspiracy that I don't even want to get into unless it bothers me in any way of course.

My Father Bashar was the Duke of the Kenji family while my mother Luna, who was the heiress of the Lunar Dragon Clan and was supposed to be the wife of the crown prince of the royal family at the time but something happened and she later married my father while the crown prince married the Princess of the Shadow Hydra Clan.

During these five years besides learning, I have been showcasing my talent. My comprehension wish came in clutch early as I was able to understand all languages and anything my parents said, despite me being a baby. I was also able to read and write and I started walking at 7 months old, I was known as the Kenji family genius.

"Bashar, I think it's time we teach Hakari about cultivation." My mother said as she was holding me and looking at me with love and care. Honestly, I was all for it, my evolution was going slowly. My soul has already fully assimilated with my body and I can feel my blood changing and my body growing stronger, but it all stopped a couple of days ago. These are probably the limits that this body can handle right now, so I can only increase the process by cultivating.

"Luna, he is only five and most geniuses start their cultivation at the earliest of seven years of age, do you think he can handle it?" My father asked and I wasn't mad at him for asking that question, it shows his rationality and that he has a good head on his shoulders, truly worthy of being one of the leaders of a huge clan such as the black dragons.

"I am ready father," I said with a resolute look in my eyes. I have been waiting for this opportunity for so long. Don't get me wrong, getting doted on by my parents and siblings was the dream and all but those things will come to an end and in the cultivation world where it is every man for themselves, strength comes first.

"Good, then come with me and I will teach you everything you need to know about cultivation." He said as my mother put me down to allow me to follow my father into his study.

As I walked in I knew it was time for new to learn about the new things in this world. Kazier said that this would be a new world in a new era and I knew he wouldn't say that just to say it. This most likely means that most of my knowledge will not be helpful in these situations as much as I though but that didn't matter to me that much, unlike those prideful old fossils I was always willing to learn.
