5 Evil Primordial System

'Who the heck are you?' Liam's mouth felt heavy due to the pain in his body. The moment that voice sounded, he felt the pain in his body intensify, especially in his head, which seemed like it might soon become unbearable. His eyeballs were rolling in random directions, causing him to faint.

At that moment, he had no idea what was happening to him.

The voice in his head was not robotic, like a system might be; it resembled the voice of an ancient being.

Several hours after he fainted, Emerald returned after spending time with Gregor and his other women in a foursome. She immediately started searching for her son.

She alerted the maids and guards, and together they began searching for him.

After several hours of futile searching, Emerald broke down into tears. It felt like a part of her soul had been ripped away.

She wasn't actually Gregor's wife but his concubine. She was born and brought up by a seventh-grade noble family—the lowest rank of noble family.

She became pregnant with Xavier nine months after Gregor's wife, Ling Xan, gave birth to her own son.

Xavier was initially considered an illegitimate child of Gregor until Emerald finally gained acceptance from Gregor after filing a court case against him.

During her pregnancy with Liam, she was told by different sages that he was special. Only later did she give birth to him and discover that he was actually cursed.

Even the oldest sage didn't know the cause of the curse.

Did the curse mean that her son would die after some time, or would he suddenly disappear just a few days after turning 3?

"Lady Emerald, don't feel sorrowful. I'm certain that the young master is alive."

"Yes, it might be because he hasn't been outside much before. Young children are always adventurous. This place is fenced, so there's no way the young master could have gotten lost."

Despite the reassurances, Emerald didn't stop crying. She believed her son was gone because they had checked everywhere he was supposed to be.

Evening came, yet no one thought to enter the technique vault. They didn't have access to it as slaves and concubines.

Three days passed, and Liam still lay helpless in the technique vault. His head throbbed with pain. He was awake but couldn't get up due to the agony. He just lay there, neither dead nor alive. His eyes were shut, his breath so low that it was almost inaudible unless someone was close.

'What's happening?'

'Everything started when I heard that voice.'

'I think the owner of the voice wants me dead.'

Liam thought to himself as his body continued to experience unimaginable pain.

A moment after those thoughts ended, he heard the same voice once again, and he responded with a tone of disappointment and disgust.

["I can't believe I've awakened in the body of a child. Come on, kiddo, get your body up. If you can't handle my arrival, how will you ever be able to control me in the future?"]

As those thoughts settled, the pain he felt began to decrease until it disappeared altogether. Liam's body moved involuntarily, and he stood up.

"Who are you?"

["Who am I? You sure have guts, kiddo. I'm a bloodline soul. Bloodline for short. Unfortunately, you're the one who has awakened me from my ages of slumber."]

"A bloodline? What kind of bloodline are you that you can talk?"

["Don't be foolish. Didn't you hear me when I said 'bloodline soul'? I'm in your body, flowing through your veins."]

"Okay, then what ability does your bloodline grant me?"

["You don't seem like a typical kid to me, so I won't tell you. Besides, why are you so weak?"]

"Go ask your Grandpa."

Liam responded angrily, wiping the sweat from his forehead. Then, he caught sight of something he had dreamed of for years.

Before him was a system panel, something he had patiently waited for.
