6 Knowledge, Awakening place
"When I opened the map, the first thing that greeted me was a huge continent.
This made me realize that there was only one continent in this world. Damn, this continent is five times the size of the Earth.
What would happen if there were multiple continents?
[!DING HOST, THERE ARE 3 MORE CONTINENTS IN THIS WORLD, YOU JUST CAN'T SEE THEM, BECAUSE THEY'RE UNNECESSARY.]
When I heard the system's words, my jaw dropped to the ground.
"System, are you serious? This continent alone is five times the size of the Earth," I said.
[!DING HOST, THIS PLANET IS 80 TIMES BIGGER THAN EARTH.]
"Are you telling the truth, system? Please don't joke with me, how can it be this big?" I said.
[!DING, THIS PLANET HOUSES A FEW BEINGS OF SIMILAR SIZE TO EARTH. THAT'S WHY YOU CAN'T EXPECT IT TO BE SMALL.]
"What are these creatures doing on this planet?" I asked.
[!DING HOST, YOU ARE A DRAGON, AND THIS WORLD HOUSES IMAGINARY BEINGS LIKE PHOENIXES, ELVES, DEMONS, HUMANS, AND SPIRITS.]
[!DING, THAT'S WHY, HOST, THIS WORLD HAS TO BE BIG, BECAUSE EVEN YOUR FAMILY IS ALMOST THE SIZE OF THE EARTH, EVEN THOUGH NOT ALL DRAGONS ARE THAT BIG, YOUR FAMILY, AS VOID DRAGONS, HAVE MASSIVE SIZE, AND YOU WILL BE THE SAME.]
I continued to be amazed by every piece of information I received from the system.
Ah, for now, forget about all this, I'll rest for the rest of the day and process the information I've received from the system.
.
.
.
[!DING GOOD MORNING, HOST.]
I woke up to the sound of the system, and the information I received from the system came to mind.
Seriously, I think I'm in big trouble, I'm going to cause big problems.
[!DING PLEASE START GETTING READY, HOST, BECAUSE IN A FEW HOURS YOU WILL GO TO ANOTHER PLACE FOR THE AWAKENING CEREMONY.]
"What do you mean, system? Why should I go somewhere else?" I asked.
[!DING YOU WILL MEET WITH OTHER DRAGONS FOR THE AWAKENING.]
I see, so I have to go there and rule over them as a young lord.
[!DING YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT, HOST. YOU ARE AN ANCIENT VOID DRAGON, YOUR FAMILY SHOULD RESPECT YOU, YOUR BLOODLINE HAS GIVEN YOU THE ABILITY TO RULE OVER EVERYTHING.]
I don't like the young lord cliché, but being praised by the system felt good.
"Maybe I should start calling you by your name, system," I said.
[!DING THANK YOU, HOST.]
"Hm hm," I nodded to myself feeling pleased.
Suddenly, my door opened and my mother came in.
"Come on, little Aldrich, I need to get you ready," said my mother.
"What's going on, mom?" I said.
"You need to get ready, my son, I can't take you there like this, even if you're very handsome, you still need to learn to dress well, because you will represent us," said my mother.
"But mom, everyone there will be older than me," I said.
"Still, you need to dress well and prove to them that you are a great genius," said my mother.
"All right, mom," I said, not wanting to argue with my mother too much.
"I've prepared a few outfits for you," said my mother, snapping her fingers and causing a few outfits to appear.
A black and gold embroidered suit, a turquoise and gold embroidered suit, and a black-purple dragon embroidered suit.
I really liked the black-purple dragon embroidered outfit, so I chose that one.
Really, this will look great on me.
I put on the outfit and stood in front of the mirror.
With my waist-length hair that was as black as night but with strands as white as snow, and the black-purple and dragon embroidered outfit on me, I decided that I would be very handsome in the future.
Looking at my father's handsomeness and my mother's beauty, there's no way I could be ugly.
"Hm hm," I nodded to myself in approval.
I guess I'm developing a new habit.
In the mirror, I saw my mother chuckling at me.
"Mom, what are you laughing at?" I said to my mother.
When my mother heard my words, she burst into laughter. "Hahahaha, my son, you're only one year old but you're starting to become narcissistic," said my mother.
Hearing this really made me decide that I'm narcissistic. Damn it, the characteristics of a young lord are ingrained in my soul.
"Now that we've dressed you, it's time to go to the awakening area," said my mother.
When my mother finished her words, she snapped her fingers again and teleported us to my father's side.
"Let's go, Aaron," said my mother to my father.
"When we get there, I'll tell you about the awakening, my son," said my mother.
"Okay, mom, I'm really excited," I said.
"Let's go," said my father, and he teleported us through a portal.
"Be careful with your actions, my son, because today many dragons will awaken with you, and you will be their ruler in the future, so show your attitude," said my father.
I nodded my head in agreement.
"Now they will announce our names, and we will enter," said my mother.
"Now entering are Aaron Aphelion, the emperor of all dragons and descendant of the void dragon, Alberta Aphelion, the dragon empress and descendant of the void dragon, and Aldrich Aphelion, the dragon prince and descendant of the void dragon," said a voice.
"Let's go in, my son," said my father, smiling at me.
As my father and mother entered, I felt them shed all their family feelings and adopt the attitude of dragon rulers.
My current mother and father are not the same as the ones at home, they are now the rulers of all dragons.
We entered through the massive door, and as soon as we entered, all eyes were on us.
All the dragons were in human form because under normal circumstances, you could never fit hundreds of dragons in one place, so dragons are scattered all over the continent.
Now hundreds of pairs of vertically slit dragon eyes were fixed on us.
I felt a little nervous, but my father's hand touching me took away all my worries.
I heard a voice in my mind.
"Calm down, Aldrich, you are destined to be their ruler in the future, they will see nothing but an ant in your eyes," said my father's voice in my head.
Although my father compared hundreds of dragons to an ant, I was really surprised, but a smile formed on my face.
The thought of being the ruler of such powerful beings took away all my worries.
I took a deep breath and walked towards the thrones reserved for us.
I walked among the gazes of hundreds of dragons for a while and sat on the throne in the middle of my mother and father's throne.
A voice appeared in my head again.
"Now I will tell you about the awakening, my son," said my mother's voice in my head.
"Awakening consists of 3 stages, my son."
"The first stage is the Awakening of Energy, this stage awakens all the energies in your body."
"The second stage is the Awakening of the Soul, in this stage, your soul awakens."
"In the third stage, your Cosmic Weapon awakens, in this stage, you acquire the weapon that the universe has chosen for you," said my mother.
I was surprised that there were 3 stages to awakening, I had only thought I would awaken my mana.
My mother continued to explain.
"Awakening stones are very rare, so usually each race has only one."
"Awakening is divided into 9 parts from 9th grade to 1st grade and above that there are King, Emperor, Saint, Chaos, Primal Chaos, and the last two stages that no one has reached."
"Also, each stage is divided into 5 stages within itself," said my mother.
[!DING HOST, THE STAGES YOUR MOTHER DIDN'T MENTION ARE VOID AND PRIMAL VOID LEVELS.]
[!DING HOST, I MUST WARN YOU THAT THE DAY YOU WERE BORN IS THE AGE OF DISASTER, AND OTHER CHOSEN HEROES WILL AWAKEN AT THE SAME TIME AS YOU AND CAUSE GREAT PHENOMENA IN THE WORLD.]
Damn it, I think I'm going to have a really difficult life.
