Gradually, Andy's eyelids fluttered open as consciousness slowly returned back to his self. And as it did, he felt his head being extra heavy and his entire body, mostly around his neck, feeling extremely sore.
"What a weird dream." He muttered while regaining his sight and found himself sleeping on his bed, inside his own room in the cabine they relocated to some few months ago.
The events that took place the other night were vaguely running in his head that made it look like just some other bad dream, until when a dark crimson background computerized screen with a dark black writings suddenly materialized in front of his blue eyes.
{The first death has been completed}
{The trio cursed bloodline system has been granted.}
{The host's evolution path has been unlocked.}
{Caution! The host's physical capabilities aren't strong to withstand the second death}
{Caution! 99.9% probabilities that the host might not return from the second death}
{System sync completed}
{The host can now view his status window.}
"What the..!?" Andy muttered in confusion and disbelief as he couldn't make sense of anything happening to him right now.
This only confirmed that the vents that took place the other night were not even closer to being a dream, they were as real as the black clouds on a rainy day.
But this didn't make any sense. How could their parants hide this from them? Leave a lone that, how were they even able to transform like that?
Like, in one second they were dressed in their usual casual clothes, and in the next second, just after that strange light, they would look completely differing and dressed on some armor that made them look like some type of ancient skilled warriors.
It didn't make any sense at all, unless they were... Andy held on on that thought for a moment as he reached over to his neck.
He found the same pendant given to him by his mother still hanging on his neck, but it didn't look the same though as the crimson crystal had somewhat lost its crimson pigments and it now looked milky white.
"Oh my... I am a witch, my mom is a witch, my day is a witch, my sisters, they are all witches. My family is full of witches." He muttered in confusion and disbelief.
He stood and started walking up and down around his room as if trying to piece everything together as there is just no way that his mind could process the whole of these at once. Especially not after everything that happened last night.
He was still hanging on a thought that he actually died last night and he was mysteriously revived.
But then, wouldn't that be completely against the rules of magic as everything has its own limit? Or this was just him? Or something to do with the strange pendant around his neck?
Anyways, after about five minutes of putting one and two together, Andy finally took a deep breath to calm himself as he focused on the system dangling in front of his eyes.
[User: Andy Snow.]
...
"Wait! Snow? I'm Smoak, not Snow. Who's Snow? My fuckin name is Andy Smoak." Andy, in frustratio, screamed to the system hanging in front of his eyes.
The noises somewhat attracted the attention of everyone in the cabin as they came charging to his room.
But seeing how Andy seemingly seemed lost in the space in front of his eyes, Jen signaled everybody to mantain a total silence as she was trying to figure what was wrong with her child.
After feeling a little better after that scream, Andy finally returned his attention back to system as he countued to asses it further.
[User: Andy Snow]

This screen looked more of a status information of a certain video game characters and Andy wasn't much stunned after everything that happened.
He observed the screen further and he noticed some more tabs placed on the bottom right corner that, accordingly and even without doing anything and just by reading the tabs in his head, the screen automatically switched to the first tab.
[Elemental Attributes]
{@#$@ error@#$@ the host is yet to learn or creat elemental spells}
{@#$@ error @#$@; the host has not yet evolved}
{The host can't creat any spell}

{@#$@ error@#$@ the host is yet to learn or creat supportive spells}
{@#$@ error @#$@; the host has not yet evolved }

{@#$@ error @#$@; the host has not yet evolved}

"Now you are not much of a use, are you?" Andy muttered I'm frustration after seeing the last three tabs being somewhat unless.
The only thing that was of use from this was the reminder that he was a witch, and a complete useless one as what's the point of being a witch without a magic, or spells?
Thus, he quickly moved on to the next and the last tab and it was as like this;
[Quest Tab]
{Quest. 1: Reach level 5}
{Quest Reward: Evolution benefits}
{Quest.2.: Find out the truth about the Snow family}
{Quest Reward: ???}
[Daily Quest]
{The host's physique is way too weak to withstand his Warlock's class. The system has granted the user the following daily quest to sharpen his physical capabilities.
{Task 1. Push-ups: 100--> 0/100}
{Task 2. Curl-ups: 100--> 0/100}
{Task 3. Squats: 100--> 0/100}
{Task 4. Run: 10 Km--> 0/10 Km}
{Caution! A punishment will be granted if the user wouldn't complete his daily task}
It wasn't much of a surprise that the system offered the last quest to Andy.
Andy is a young boy of seventeen years old with a body physique that weren't that impressive. It looked more like he could be blown away by a simplest of a wind as he looked completely weak.
His looks weren't much attractive either with his black hair, and the only beautiful thing about his entire life was his perfect blue eyes.
After getting done with the system and learning everything that the system could offer, Andy had to just think about closing the system and it disappeared from his sight, and when he thought about opening the system again, the screen would automatically come lashing in front of his eyes.
The only thing that he wanted now was the explanation of how the whole of this was possible, and the only people that could grant him such answer were his parents.
He stood to walk out but he found all of his family members staring at him blankly while wondering what was wrong with him.
"Son, is everything ok?" Jen asked.
"Well, considering the fact that you sacrificed me to the wolves and I ended up dying to protect the family seems okay. It's completely understandable since I understand that you could never do that without a plan. Cool that's understandable but... Who's Andy Snow?" Andy asked and suddenly stunning Jen, Owen and Amanda.
"Wait. You are from the Snow family!?" Amanda shouted in surprise.
"What do you mean am from the Snow family?" Andy quickly responded as he felt like his head could soon explode with these much of unexplained occurrence. "I am your brother, remember? And if am from the Snow family then that means you are also from the Snow family."
Andy looked back at his mother hoping she would say something to explain this but Jen was completely silent while processing this bombshell of information.
"It all makes sense now." Amanda spoke while looking at her mother.
"What makes sense?" Andy asked.
"Ahh. Son. Do you mind taking a seat!" Jen finally spoke while forcing Andy to sit on his bed. "Do you recognize the pendant on your neck?" She asked.
"Should I?"
"I don't know." Jen responded. "There is no easy way of telling you this but... We are not truly your parents." Jen stated.
"Say that again!" Andy muttered while standing in shock.
"It's the truth, Andy, and I hoped that you might have figured it already by now. Isn't it weird to you though that you're memories starts from when you were 8 and nothing beyond?" Jen asked.
"No. It's not the truth. Stop talking, please." Andy responded with tears trickling down his cheeks.
"I'm sorry, son, but that's the reality. 9 years ago, somebody delivered you to our door step and you were baldy injured like someone wanted you dead.
"You had that pendant around your neck and you were protect it as if your life depended on it, and through our investigation, we found that that crystal in the pendant is actually a long lost mystical cursed stone, a stone that both the witches, werewolves vampires have been fighting each other for.
"Through some accident, Aniwah tried to power the stone using her mana when the two of you were eight, but the stone reacted negatively as it wiped both of your childhood memories.
"To protect you, we temporary spellbond the both of you and vow to never talk to you about the witchy stuff as a way of protecting you, but now if you say that you are from the Snow family, this changes everything.
"This means that you are a relative to Quinsela Snow, the reason why we abandoned out planet, and she will stop at nothing to get you."
Ding!
