Aiden after freshened up he went to living room downstair.
LIVING ROOM :
As Aiden entered the living room, he observed each family member seated in their respective places. Great-grandpa and Great-grandma occupied the main chairs, leaving the middle seat presumably for him. To Great-grandpa's side, Grandpa Ezekiel sat below him, followed by Uncle James and his family. On Great-grandma's side, Grandma Isadora conversed with her daughter, Aiden's mother Selene, who sat beside her. A handsome middle-aged man, around 40, smiled warmly at Aiden from his place. He was Aiden's uncle from his mother's side, named Henry, the current Crown Prince of Windsor. Henry, known for his jovial demeanor, married at the age of 20 to the daughter of the Queen of Kingston Empire. They have a daughter named Leonor, who, at 16 years old, was also present in the room.
Aiden greeted everyone one with a smile on his face.
"Aiden my child come here, we have something discuss with you" Great-grandpa said with gesturing to sit in the middle.
"Ok Great-grandpa, I also want to ask something" Aiden nodded his head and went to sit in the middle.
As Aiden took his seat, a solemn atmosphere descended upon the room.
"Child, since yesterday's ceremony, everything has shifted. You've unlocked some bloodlines even we were unaware of, causing unease among all the families on Earth. While they can't touch you in the real world because of our protection, in the virtual world, they may send assassins after you. Now, it's your choice. Do you wish to enter the virtual world immediately, or would you prefer to wait until the tension in the air subsides?" Alexander said with a serious tone.
"Child, we've searched extensively today, but we still couldn't find information about all the bloodlines you've unlocked. Especially the third one, the dragon bloodline, remains a mystery to us. How did you unlock these bloodlines?" Elizabeth enquired.
"About the bloodline, it's was gifted by Uncle Alex in my dreams when I was 5 years old and also explained about my all bloodline he also said 'Sorry Aiden I was not present when Selene given birth to you so here is your gifts, and say hello to grandpa and Selene' and he also gifted some other things that can be used in virtual world as well as real world" Aiden explained with half truth like typical MC.
As soon as Aiden mentioned the name Alex, a wave of shock swept through everyone present. After a moment of silence, smiles began to blossom on their faces.
"Hahaha, so it was Sir Alex doing, that explains everything " Alexander started laughing out loud.
"Yes, if it's him then there is no need to worry"
Elizabeth comment with a smile and gently nodded.
"Great-grandpa, great-grandma , who is Uncle Alex even you use 'Sir' in front of his name?" Aiden enquired with a curious face.
"Hahaha, what do you know about the history of the emergence of the heroes? " Alexander asked.
"When invader fleet enter the earth, and darkest time of human history started then 100 heroes band together to fight against invader and saved everyone from becoming slaves of invader" Aiden explained in brief way.
" You're partially incorrect. When the invader fleet arrived, our group of 100 heroes split into two factions. One faction was indifferent to the welfare of the common people, while the other, which we were a part of, was furious with the Olympians due to their arrogant behavior. Despite our anger, we agreed to meet with them to negotiate a contract for the safety of our planet. However, their condition was to dismantle the current system and establish one of their own, where they could act with impunity within their territory. Initially, we opposed this idea as it would neglect the well-being of ordinary citizens. But as casualties mounted during the dark times, we reluctantly complied.
After signing the contract, we united to confront the invaders. Initially, we had the upper hand, but when the invaders' main troops emerged from their ships armed, we found ourselves at a disadvantage. However, the situation changed dramatically when Sir Alex emerged from a rift in space. His arrival halted the fighting, and we turned our attention to him. Surprised by the commotion, Sir Alex demanded an explanation, prompting Elizabeth and me to recount the events.
Upon learning the truth, Sir Alex directed his wrath towards the invaders, causing their leaders' heads to explode, leaving only the captain alive. Trembling with fear, the captain revealed that their fleet had purchased the planet's location four months earlier from a kingdom, the same kingdom that had previously appeared with god-like ultimatums for our future. Enraged, Sir Alex obliterated the kingdom and warned all beings against invading our planet.
Excited by this turn of events, we were about to express our gratitude when Sir Alex instructed us to reform the government, emphasizing the need for humans to evolve and not rely solely on him for help. He then distributed 100 bracelets he had confiscated from the kingdom, explaining their purpose. Despite our elation, Elizabeth and I raised concerns about the contract's unreasonable terms. Infuriated by the Olympians' actions, Sir Alex threatened them with dire consequences if they discriminated against citizens in any way, igniting a feud between them and us.
Because of our honesty, Sir Alex began spending time with our family, even training your father. It's rumored that he developed feelings for your mother, but he never acknowledged them. When your father proposed to your mother, Sir Alex left abruptly, and we haven't seen him since. " Alexander explained everything to Aiden and family about the history of heroes.
Aiden was stunned by the revelations, his mind racing to process the incredible sequence of events.
"Aiden you don't have you worry about anything Alex will not harm you in anyway, I know about him very well" Selene said with a gentle tone
"Ok mother " nodded his head slowly.
"Now Aiden, can you tell us about your bloodline that was gifted by Sir Alex " Elizabeth enquired.
"Ah.. Yes Great-grandma, Uncle Alex said that first 7 bloodline shadows was the gods bloodline, for 12 pheonixes was the queen pheonix, and as for the dragon was the divine dragon name Genesis dragon who control over all elements and the proginator of current dragons" Aiden explained
Hearing this, they were truly stunned. According to history, the progenitor dragon departed the universe after leaving its descendants behind. As for the Elemental Queen Phoenixes, they remained elusive, with no one ever having seen them. Even the gods were wary of their existence.
"Aiden, if what you've said is true, then your bloodline has become the most powerful in the universe. It's both a blessing and a curse because everyone will covet it, and they'll stop at nothing to acquire it. So, never reveal anything about your bloodline. If someone asks, just deflect and tell them something else," Elizabeth said to Aiden in a serious tone, emphasizing the importance of secrecy.
"Aiden, you mentioned that Sir Alex gave you other items," Alexander inquired, curious about what else had been bestowed upon Aiden.
"Ahh, yes, Uncle Alex mentioned that upon entering the virtual world, I would receive a sword, a village creation token, guards, a guild token, and a few other items." Aiden replied smoothly, fabricating a tale.
Hearing about the village creation token, the eyes of the family members lit up with anticipation.
"Hahahaha, finally, we can establish our own village," Alexander exclaimed with excitement. "Aiden, once you reach level 10, use your token to create the village. Let us know once it's established. And one more thing, never give ownership of the village to anyone, not even me or this old hag," he added with a grin.
"You old barbarian, who are you calling old hag?" Elizabeth retorted playfully. "And yes, Aiden, those gifts are yours, so you don't have to give them to anyone else," she added, emphasizing the ownership of Aiden's gifts.
The reason for the excitement surrounding the village tokens is that they were bestowed upon believers by the gods themselves. Each token holds immense value and is highly coveted. In fact, every token sold in the Universal Auction fetches a hefty price, with the last one being sold for a staggering 1.8 billion coins. This amount is equivalent to the total coins available on Earth combined. As a result, to this day, no one has been able to acquire land in the virtual world, making the possession of these tokens truly extraordinary.
After another 10 minutes of discussion, Aiden made the decision to enter the virtual world. He turned to his family and asked for their permission to begin his journey.
"It's alright for you to enter, but once you're in, you must add us to your contact list immediately," Alexander said firmly. "That way, if someone attempts to assassinate you, we can come to your aid in time," he added, emphasizing the importance of safety.
"And one more thing, Aiden," Elizabeth interjected. "Never underestimate anyone present in the virtual world. They are all real beings, including the monsters," she warned, the importance of vigilance.
"Okay, Great-grandpa, Great-grandma," Aiden nodded in acknowledgment.
"Okay, here is your bracelet, and we've added 10k coins for you," Alexander said gently, handing over the bracelet to Aiden. "Use it to choose a suitable class for yourself," he added, wishing Aiden well on his journey.
"Thank you for everything, Great-grandpa, Great-grandma," Aiden said with a slight bow, expressing his gratitude before preparing to enter the virtual world.
After expressing his gratitude, Aiden excused himself and went to meet his cousins, leaving the rest of the family to continue their discussion.
"Hey, Sis Lisa I won yesterday's bet so where is my reward" Aiden said with a smirk.
"Y..you winged lizard (for divine dragon and pheonix bloodline) if I have known that Uncle Alex have gifted you bloodlines than I will never bet with you. Humph" Lisa said while pauting
"So now it's my fault that you haven't asked me about my bloodlines, huh. Either way I won so give me my reward." Aiden commented with a smirk.
Suddenly Leonor who was with her mother went to greet Aiden for his ceremony.
"Congratulation little Aiden for unlocking your bloodlines" Leonor said in a sweet voice.
Aiden who is exorting from Lisa suddenly stop and look at Leonor.
Leonor's beauty is ethereal, like something out of a dream. Her features are delicate, and her presence radiates an otherworldly charm. There's a celestial quality to her, as if she's descended from the heavens themselves. She truly have both the genes of Windsor and Kingston. In his past life Leonor's fate was the cruelest one. When Olympians killed both the family they don't kill Leonor due to her beauty. Olympians use Leonor as pleasing the guests for them even Arthur use Leonor as play thing. After 5 years of torture she can't take more than that and killed herself.
After seeing Leonor Aiden eyes started to form tear. Even after their family demise Leonor help Aiden during those 5 years and after she knows Aiden is safe she killed herself. When he heard the news that Leonor killed herself he can't control his rage and went to find the body of his last family member. After seeing the body he got a note on her body that to make a vaw that live a carefree life and don't dwell on revenge. He can't say that he love her untill last moment.
"Uhh... Aiden, did I say something wrong? I'm sorry," Leonor said nervously after seeing Aiden's tear.
"No, nothing big, Sis, just got something in my eyes. Thank you for congratulating me, it means a lot," Aiden said with a smile, grateful for Leonor's concern.
"Aiden, here's my user ID for the virtual world. After you enter, just add me to your contacts. I have a friend whose brother is also joining the virtual world today," Leonor said with a smile, extending her hand to pass him the information.
"Oh, okay, Sis. After joining the virtual world, I'll make sure to contact you first," Aiden said with determination.
After the brief conversation, Leonor excused herself and left Lisa and Aiden alone, making her way to where her family was gathered.
Seeing Leonor return, Aiden made a silent vow, his determination burning within him. 'Leonor, in this life, I will protect you from everyone. The sacrifices of your past life will not be in vain. I will make you the queen of my empire, and I will show you how deeply I love you,'
Lisa, who had been observing the interaction between Aiden and Leonor, suddenly formed an evil grin on her face, her expression turning sinister as a devious plan began to take shape in her mind.
Lisa teased, "Oh, so dear Aiden, you're still deeply in love with Sis Leonor, huh? I might have to talk to Grandpa about our little Aiden's infatuation."
Aiden blushed, feeling embarrassed by Lisa's teasing. "Come on, Lisa, don't make it weird," he muttered, trying to play off his embarrassment with a nervous laugh.
"Okay, I'll forget about the bet, so let's just keep this between us, alright?" Aiden added quickly, hoping to put an end to the conversation before it went any further.
"Ok deal" Lisa said with a smile.
After chatting with everyone, Aiden excused himself and made his way to his room. With a sense of anticipation coursing through him, he prepared himself to enter the virtual world.
