In the Blackburn manor, the family is currently dining and chatting. The children are chatting with each other and laughing, all except one, Darius Blackburn, the youngest son of Tybur and Eliza Blackburn.
MC POV
So in this world there are people who have Psionic powers and other superpowers like flights, this could explain the flying people I saw. Due to the memories I obtained from the soul of the kid I ate, the Blackburn family is one of the strongest noble families in the Terran Federation. Apparently, there is an Emperor who rules the Federation and is the most strongest of the Imperial Knights.
The Empress is the strongest of the Psionics and Imperial Mages. I should do some research into the Federation and these Imperial Knights and Mages. Suddenly, a voice caught my attention "Darius your not eating. it is something the matter." My mother looked at me with concern.
I smiled and said with an excited tone "Oh its nothing mother, I'm just thinking about the Federation and the Imperial Mages and Knights" My father looked at me and said with a strict tone "You will learn all about the Federation during your classes with your instructor tomorrow"
My mother didn't look happy "For crying out loud Tybur he's only six years old, let him enjoy his childhood" My father's gaze softened and he sighed "I know Eliza but my father ordered wants the kids to start their lessons tomorrow" He said father with venom in his tone.
My mother grimaced when Father mentioned his father, now that I think about it my grandfather isn't well liked among my family. He was said to be cruel, ruthless, and a master in Black Magic.
I wonder if my grandfather could teach me the Dark Arts, though my parents might not like me going near my grandfather, to which I don't give a shit.
My siblings also have a fear of my grandfather due to them witnessing him brutally killing a rebel. Speaking of rebels, there's currently a rebellion that seeks total democracy.
The rebellion doesn't like the fact that the Federation was dictatorship and wanted 'freedom' even though everyone is living a good life and poverty doesn't exist.
But some people refuse to change and will remain as idiots, like my father here. The memories of the original Darius showed me that my father detests dark arts, as for why he never said.
Speaking of my lessons, "Mother, it's fine. I want to learn about the Federation and its history"
My mother looked reluctant at this, and I was thinking about what to do to get her to let me attend these classes. Wait, do I even need her permission.
My grandfather is the current lord of the Blackburn family, so if he wants his grandkids to attend these lessons, my parents can't do anything about it.
Then the door suddenly opened and an elderly man came in. This old man was tall, muscular, and had a dangerous and powerful aura around him.
As soon as he walked in, my siblings and parents remained quiet as he looked at us. This man is Crawford Blackburn, my grandfather.
"Well, aren't any of my grandkids going to say hi to their grandfather?" He said in a calm tone with a wicked smile.
My younger brother Billy said in a meek tone, "H-Hello grandfather." The old man spoke with a disappointed tone, "Boy, you are a Blackburn, not some pussy, grow a fucking backbone."
Billy began to cry at this which made my grandfather look at him with disgust "Are you actually crying, you really are a disappointment like your father"
"THAT'S ENOUGH!!!!" My mother screamed with an angry facial expression.
The Lord of the Blackburn family looked at my mother and sneered at her, then raised his hand, and my mother began floating. Her angry facial expression soon turned to fear.
My father looked fearful and worried for his wife and pleaded with grandfather. "Father, please, my wife did not mean to offend you"
The Blackburn Lord looked at his son with disgust. "Look at you, once a feared dark mage and now a spineless whelp." He then lowered his hand and my mother fell to the ground.
Crawford then looked at me and my younger siblings and said "Listen up brats, you will attend the lessons with the instructor I paid for, do you all understand."
One by one my younger siblings replied "Yes Grandfather." In a meek tone. I said it in an excited tone which caught the attention of my grandfather. "Oh, you seem to be excited young Darius, even though I almost killed your mother."
All eyes were on me now, "Well I was scared that you might kill mother, however the power you have, the power to crush your enemies as if they are ants, I want that power but on a much grander scale." I said all this with determination and greed in my eyes.
Everyone looked stunned, a six year old boy wanting such power for himself it was very rare. Crawford Blackburn grinned at my words "Well, looks like one of my grandkids won't be a disappointment, hopefully you won't end up like your older sister."
I could see my older brother Zack glaring at my grandfather, but he can't do shit as if he tried something, he'd be crushed immediately. It appears my older sister is disliked by my grandfather and the original Darius doesn't know why.
My grandfather than slowly walked away but before he left he said something with a cruel smirk that horrified my parents and my older sibling. "I lied about paying for the instructor, your instructor will be me."
