Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: The Knocking Ghost

Haven't giving up on his life yet Lukas hurriedly try to grab the fallen dagger. But the moment he bent his knees, he feel hairs brushing on his cheeks.

The sudden movement of the creature is too fast for his eyes, in less than a second the creature is standing right in front of him. Without giving him a time to react, a warm touches his cheeks following a gentle voice full of worry entered his ear.

"Are you okay ? "

Hearing the familiar voice the trembling Lukas finally have enough courage to take a peek at the creature face. Seeing the familiar face, his tense body finally getting relexed.

"M.mom ? "

Finally getting a response Lukas mom replied, still with a tone of worry, " Are you okay? Do you have a nightmere ? Are you hurt ? "

The other two figure ourside the now broken door also asked with some worry in their voice " Brother what happened ?"

" Why are you holding a dagger?"

Overwhelmed by the question lukas blurted out "I'm fine, i just have a little nightmere!"

Curious the little boy asked "what kind of nightmare? "

At this moment Lukas brain worked at an incredible speed making up a lie to cover his embarrassing moment.

Finally after some moment he replied with the best quivering voice he can make of "It's a ghost, i see a really huge monster with mouth as wide as the sky, it has countless vine like hand with a very sharp edge attacking our city. "

" The barrier of golden city can't hold the attack and crack start to appear and finally shatter into pieces, the huge monster started to have a feast and slaughter every human it encountered."

" It's a terrifying sight, countless dead human decorating the tips of the creature hand, some missing a head, an arm or leg and their blood is dripping from the sky like a rain of blood. "

"It full of blood, The city's died in red the city's protector is powerless against the creature attack and many of great human figure start to fell one by one, the civilians in chaos and scream of terror is everywhere but they cant escape from the creature hands."

Lukas started to sob with tears filling his eyes

"Then.. I see *sobs mother... *sobs died..t..then father *sobs and brother.. *sobs eaten by the monste... *sobs protecting..us" Then the tears in lucas eyes start to fall.

Lukas's mom hurriedly pull Lukas to her embrance patting his back gently trying to comfort her crying son.

"There's no way that the strong barrier is destroyed brother" Said the girl.

"Yea, and dad is so strong the bad monster can't defeat him!! " Followed the little boy.

"Aslong as we're here nothing will happen"add Lukas's mom while her add still caressing her crying son.

Some time later, Lukas sobs finally subsided. Breaking free from his mom embrance while gloating for his amazing performance.

He started to look closely at the two figure standing next to her.

A little boy with cubby face with a sleepy eyes filled with worry for him while wearing a dinosaur pajamas such a cute look make him want to pinched his plump cheeks.

Next to him is a more mature looking girl that should be in her 13th holding a chocolate cake.

'Wait... a cake???' Lukas tilted his head a little

The tree figure noticing his line of sight let out a response

" Happy birthday Lukas! "

"Happy birthday brother!!! "

After some heartwarming moment Lukas's family left his room, before leaving his mother murmur some strange word, the from the broken door a glowing text appears. It began to fly around the door fragments, like some sort of glue it stick each fragment finally restoring the broken door.

After seeing such a magical sight Lucas feels excited for such a power and started to forget his fear for the scary monster that roaming in this world especially knowing that's his family is the exact same family from his past life after transmigration.

He just wonder what will happened to his family in his past life. 'I hope they won't be so sad for my death' he thought. Feeling a bit loss he started to divert his thought trying to think about the superpower in this world.

Based on his memories the age of 18 is the time where people can awaken their soul artifacts. His father and mother both wield a soul artifacts, so as their son his awakening is pretty much guaranteed. However the grade of the artifact itself is a wonder, his expectations is quite high especially after knowing how amazing this family bloodline is.

Both of his parent and brother all awaken a S-Grade artifact!!!

Just the thought of wielding a great power make him restless. Making it hard for him to fell a sleep, in addition to the slight wet feeling from his pants that makes him uncomfortable.
