Chapter 1 - Chapter 1

"Ouch" I said as I rub my head, I just had a bad dream about me being killed by a flying truck that crashed into my apartment after jumping from the top of a mountain. As I continued to rub my head, I touched my hair which seemed to have grown, it grew a lot as I looked around to see that this was not my room either. It was more of a royal castle, with marble pillars that had dragons made of gold running along them. 

My head started to hurt as memories of another being flooded my mind, I got up on my bed going through all my memories. I am or this body belongs to Riven Zephyris, he was assassinated tonight by poisoning but I appear to have taken over the body. I, being a frantic watcher of the isekai genre, immediately adapted to the situation. I had no family back home and my life was turning into shit since I defaulted on debt with the bank. This will be my start over. I will grow strong and have a har-um..I ain't issei I swear. 

I went through his memories once again to know that Riven Zephyris is the heir to the Zrphyris family and is the only son of the patriarch, Caelum Zephyris. His father was born a commoner, but due to his talent and strength he gained immense respect from the previous emperor so much so that he was granted a Marquis in the capital. Dame, I have a sick ass father but he sadly is usually on the battlefield leaving the finance officers to handle all the wealth related stuff. I have to check that out later but for now, I have no skill or in better words it hasn't awakened yet.

Basically, there are people in this world that have awakened a skill or supernatural ability. It is ranked from F - S rank with transcendent, emperor, heavenly emperor above the common f-s skills. My father's skill is Transcendent level, which is considered a rare talent in the empire of Drakoria. Only 20% of the population can awaken a talent and out of that only 0.2% have awakened something higher than F - S rank talents so it is very prestigious to awaken a talent like that.

This is also where the majority of my troubles lay, I have not awakened a skill yet. Usually, people awaken skills at the age of 15 but I didn't so I kinda became a joke for the nobles to criticize my father with. My father never said anything about it and was a good dad, anyways Zack Drakoria the second born son of the emperor was from a concubine so to ascend the throne he had to eliminate or at least weaken the crown princess the only one born to the queen. 

Zack then convinced the emperor to bind me and her in marriage, so basically I am a useless waste married to one of the top beauty in the world and also one of the most dangerous women I met in both my lifes. Which is not a big dataset but still, she is a very clever woman proven when she, even with me as a disability to her natural advantage as the crown princess, was still just ahead of the other princes when it came to power in the empire.

I have yet to meet her but from the conversation I hear from the noble who met her, she seems to be very much like a "demoness" in their exact words. Although they are biased against her, that is all I have to work with so I will follow through with that and put her in the middle of the list of people I suspect is the one who killed me. 

Next, it is her brother Zack Drakoria or Evan Evergail, I say Zack is at high suspect because if I were to die it would benefit him more than with me alive. He could publicly accuse her of killing me, which would be believed very easily by the nobles after the rumors of her and eventually the commoner too, and deal a blow to her reputation. Evan Evergail is a the number one suspect because of the incident a year back when he openly proposed to her after meeting her once. If you ask me, he is a simp and I would not mind going back on the race even though I want a harem. I ain't trying to recruit straight up demons into it, I ain't that thirsty bro. 

"Dame, I have a lot of things to deal with, don't I." I said with a sigh, I just want to live an easy life but sadly I am being forced into another situation lik- I immediately shake my head to get rid of those thoughts. Since I transmigrated I must have a powerful system or help right?

"System"

"God"

"Rob"

"Shiva"

"Allha"

"Lucifer"

"Satan"

"Multidimensional existence"

"Random Science equation" I tried a bunch of names to try and see if any of the names will react with my cheat. Sadly, none of them worked as I was left all alone again. *sigh* I sighed for the 10th time since I reached here and looked around my room. As soon as I laid eyes on a tea cup, a status screen popped up. The words in the biggest letters said poisoned tea cup but reading more intently, it showed the name of the poison and what it's cost also the cure to it.
