"Please tell me mistress!" I hunched over in my chair. Not wanting to miss a detail. Did my parents want to ascend and leave me? Was I abandoned on her footsteps? Am I the child of a supreme entity that couldn't raise me due to sect politics and the like?
Many scenarios are running through my mind. It was exciting to be honest.
She only smirked at my behavior. Then she stared at the balcony. And said:" 5 years ago. I was roaming the eastern fringes of this empire. It a was mostly deserts and Hills. Nothing much really. The empress requested me to witness a Battle between Two kingdoms. The war was at its end. Almost a million cultivators participated on both sides. This Battle was the final Battle between them. Whoever wins will claim everything and be the new conqueror of that barren desert. "
I interjected:" So the empress doesn't want to participate in this war? Must be a cunning empress. Swoops down at the last minute and takes everything. Right? "
" Correct. " My lady nodded in approval." The empire is vast. Huge really. So, she lets kingdoms under her duke it out so to speak. Then she approves of whoever wins and rules over them. That's Beside the point. A million cultivator died that day. Both kingdoms lost their kings and crown princes. Blood and blades littered the ground. A sea of blood formed. The blades… Battered and broken beyond repair… Corpses everywhere you look…"
The mistress sighed. Then she looked me straight in the eyes.
"The blood came alive. The Sea of blood after the Battle ate away all the swords and spears, bows and arrows. A Million weapons of various grades were eaten away by the Sea of blood. Then it coalesced into a crimson cocoon of blood and blade. It only took a day for the cocoon to open. Guess what I found?"
I started dumbly at her. Not knowing what to say.
She stared back at me. Looked me straight in the eye, Smiled and said:" I found you! The most beautiful baby I have ever seen! You didn't even cry. You opened your eyes slightly and spotted me. Then just giggled happily at me. You extended your hands at me. Wanting me to hold you… I Did. And after that you went into a deep sleep for three years. "
" W-what am I? What do you mean by a cocoon? How does this make any sense? " I screamed at her. What the fuck is this? Is this a joke to her?
" Its true little Jason. Your mother is Blood. Your father, the Blade. They coalesced in War. And then you came. The child of Slaughter. Born of War. " She kept staring at me. Observing me.
Yuki POV
After the mistress teleported with Jason. I stared blankly at Anna and Edna and Nisha. They smiled amiably at me. I couldn't care less… But I smiled back. No need to be rude to them.
I turned back to the house and went straight to my room. I slumped on my futon and screamed in my pillow.
"Ahhhhhhh~! my little husband is so amazing! Only 5 and he started cultivating! I knew he would be so amazing I just knew it!"
I lay on my back and stared at the ceiling.
Ever since a year and a half ago when he confessed his eternal love for me. I've been thinking about him nonstop. My instinct told me he was to be my mate. But after today I'm sure of it. No one has ever done what he's done. Cultivating at the age of 5? Breaking through 3 minor levels in the same day? It only makes me love him more and more~...
But... Am I even worthy? I'm 11 now. At the peak of body refining realm. It took me a year to reach this level. My mistress says I have monstrous talent. If the Fox tribes knew of it they would fight fang and claw to take me from here and nurture me. But I don't want that. I want to stay by my Lord Husband's side.
I must have patience...
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
Ugh! who is it! "Come in." I shouted. Annoyance clear in my voice.
Sarah came in. She bowed then said: "Miss Yuki good evening. Have you seen the young master?"
Young master huh? What do you want from him you little skank? You think I didn't notice how you look at him? How you're absolutely infatuated with him? Huh? You little bitch!
"He went with the mistress last I've seen him. Why? What do you want from him?" I said with an annoyed tone.
"I just brought dinner to his room and I didn't see him. Would you like to join us in waiting for him, young miss?" She smilingly said. Ugh her obnoxious smile. No matter how I try I can't seem to hate her. Maybe because she loves Lord Husband? Could be…
"Ugh… fine… Lead the way."… To be in His presence... That's my calling~ .
MC POV
After my mistress sent me out after that sudden revelation. It hit me that I'm fatherless, motherless, and with no siblings. I'm an anomaly. Born of blood and blade in the form of a human. Apparently I wasn't the first. There was one before. Shunned by the world. Hated and scorned. Only after their ascension the world forgot about them.
I really don't know what to think of this... What to feel...
You know what? Who fucking cares. This is my new life. I'm an anomaly. A child of Slaughter. Born of war. A Vampire. A cultivation FREAK. On top of that I have a SYSTEM. An infinite amount of energy in my Manacore. I can master any martial art. Sword and shield. Spear and bow. I'll just make my own family then!
I went back to my room with renewed vigor. I opened the door to a lovely scene. Edna, Yuki, Sarah, and Nisha were sitting in a circle on the huge bed. I wordlessly climbed in and pulled Nisha to my lap. I kissed her forehead and she snuggled closer to me. Sarah and Edna smiled warmly. While Yuki was clearly upset. Pouting. Huffing and Puffing.
I giggled at her antics. Then gestured for her to sit Beside me. I would love for her to sit on my lap. It would just be Awkward due to the size difference.
Her face beamed with happiness. It surprised me for a moment. This one gesture changed her mood immediately. I think she's in love with me...
I'm glad...
She sat beside me. And held my left hand with her right. A red hue was visible from ear to ear on her face. Blushing heavily, she snuggled beside me. Then she stared back at Sarah with a smirk. And Sarah flinched at her. While Edna giggled sweetly.
Hmm. She's possessive. That's fine too.
"Sorry to keep you waiting girls. Let's dig in."
