Chapter 1 - That Time I Got Born As a Slime

September 8th, 105AA Diary Entry #1

My father recommended writing this diary so that one day I, or anyone else, can look back on it later. I am not sure if it will be of any help, but he is my father so I should listen to him.

I should probably mention that he is not my real father, but more of an adoptive father.

This is because it's literally impossible for a Fae to give birth to a slime.

That's right, I am a slime. I do not know much about my own species, but here is what my father told me:

Slimes are an extremely rare species, born from a very high concentration of mana in a single spot, but there is only a 1 in 1 trillion chance of that concentration of mana turning into a sentient being. There are other species that can be born from these mana spots as well, further reducing the chances of a slime appearing.

The mana, once brought together by nature, condensates into a high viscosity liquid like substance. After a while the mana creates a brain within this clump of liquid.

I gained sentience on this day fifteen years ago.

I don't have any memories from before this time, but as soon as my brain was fully formed I began to have thoughts and feelings.

That is also the day that my family found me.

I remember feeling lost and confused for almost a full day before they found me. It was extremely scary.

I couldn't see or hear until I was able to connect with the mana around me. Using my mana senses isn't the same as how normal people see and hear, but it offered me something similar.

I now know what it's like to see with actual eyes and hear with real ears, but before then it felt like everything was offered to me through a 3D map and vibrations were detected through the fluctuations in mana in the air.

Soon after that is when my first existential crisis began.

I remember thinking 'Who am I?' and 'What is going on?'. For hours I tried to find the answers to those questions, but they never came to me.

Luckily, my family found me before I could enter any kind of depression or manic state.

I should probably mention that my family is extremely special. At the time I did not know how special they were but I noticed how much the people around them respected them and was able to conclude that they were at least somewhat special.

When my family found me in the forest, my father was especially ecstatic. Finding me seemed like the greatest thing that has ever happened to him. He shouted loudly and picked me to toss me in the air in joy.

"I'm such a lucky man! First I received two sons and now this?!" He said.

I'm not sure how, but I already knew our language so I was able to understand him perfectly. I just couldn't respond to him yet.

Then, something weird started to happen.

My body started transforming while still in his hands.

It's when I started to gain my own Fae form.

This is something else I have been told by my father about the slime species. We take on the form of the first intelligent species to touch us. It is supposedly a biological reaction ingrained within us at birth.

Because my father was the first to hold me, his DNA is what was used to create my Fae form. This means I look like I am actually one of his sons, and I guess it does kind of make me one of his biological children in a way.

My father is a tall man as he is 6'7 (201 cm). He is a very handsome man who looks like he is only in his late 20s although he is much older. His long white hair stops just past his shoulders like he has never cut it before. He has pale blue eyes that hold a lot of intelligence and wisdom within them. His tanned skin showed the amount of time he spent outside and in the sun. He has pointed ears, like all of the Fae people, that peak through his hair. His muscles look like they are threatening to burst through his clothes at all times of the day.

My mother has told me many times that I look just like him when he was younger.

I am now 5'10 (178 cm), so I am tall for a 15 year old just like my father was. I have the same facial structure as him and the same white colored hair, but mine is much shorter as it stops just before my ears.

My older brothers and mother were with him on that day as well.

My mother is a beautiful woman who looks like she is in her late 20's as well. She has long black hair that is in stark contrast with my father's white hair. Her green eyes are a very deep and bright shade. She has a small nose, full lips, and a light brown skin tone. She is tall herself for a Fae woman, standing at 6'0 (183 cm).

My siblings all take after my mother strongly as they have her black hair, green eyes, and light brown skin. I was the first and so far only one of their children to take after my father, making him even more excited.

I should probably give you all their names. My father's name is Jovan Astor, but most call him Emperor Astor.

My mother is his Empress whose name is Kami Astor.

My eldest brother and the current crown prince is named Markan Astor.

Then there is my second eldest brother Nevandius Astor. Then my third older sibling and the first girl in the family, my sister Lilian. Then comes me.

Three years after I was found, my parents had my other siblings. The twins were the last of the current Astor's to be born so far. Penny and Seban are their names.

I didn't notice any problems with my siblings at first because for a while there were none. The problems started when my father told us who would be receiving the throne when he steps down as King.
