ARC:BEGINNING-CH 1
The sound of blood spattering echoed in the silent night.
A sword had penetrated into a frail body, piercing through the fragile young man's stomach, his flesh teared as blood gushed out from the place he was stabbed.
There was another injured person near him.
"You....you...." The injured man tried to move his lips but his mouth refused to do so as if a lump of sand was stuck on his throat. He did not understand. wide eyed he looked at the young boy who, while protecting him had taken a sword aimed at him using his own weak and small body to block the sword.
"Why did you protect me?" Linx asked with a somewhat trembling voice. He shuddered as he witnessed a river of blood flowing down from the body of the boy who had protected him. His own younger brother that hated him.
The other person looked at him wearing a cold face. Although he was in pain his face did not gave out an ounce of pained expression.
"why? I....I thought you hated me?" Linx squeezed out these words with great difficulty as he stared at his younger brother, Lev.
Lev looked at him in utter silence.
"Fuck! You think I wanted to save you? The last thing I would want to do is to save the son of fate of this world. If it wasn't because of the system I would have been the one to kill you!" He cussed in silence. However thinking about the system, his lips curled up into a menacing smile.
Well...this was going to be the last time he obeyes the system's command of walking down the path of death. Aganist his will.
As his body began to fall down, swaying to the left, Linx caught him in his arms. He immediately felt the smell of blood flooding his nose, the sticky and thick texture stuck to his clothes staining them. Then Linx heard the person in his arms mumble....
"Right.....I do hate you. You are not wrong about that..." Lev let out an overbearing smile as he thought to himself.
"You are the last stepping stone to my freedom. So take this as an interest as I am a bit sentimental for the many things we have in common. Also, I am in a good mood."
He then moved his face away from Linx's shoulders and looked up at him.
"Don't you.....dare die, bro.....ther..." His voice fadded away at the end of his sentence as he lost his consciousness but he did not forget to give Linx a sad smile.
Linx felt the heartbeat of the other person stop.
His eyes turned red in anger, a strange energy surging from within, erupting like a volcano with full power, out of control.
"NNNOOOOO.....AHHHHH....NOOOOOO" A wretched shout filled the silent night.
Linx felt his heart being squeezed in pain, the pain of suddenly loosing someone who pretended to hate him on the oustside, but was actually the only one who loved him enough to give up his life protecting him.
The surrounding enemy witnessed the illegitimate son of the emperor going berserk emitting a holy power impossible for a mortal to hold.
They suddenly realized they had pointed their swords at a person who was above this world.
"Ding!"
"Mission successful."
"Congratulations on completely awakening the power of the protagonsit, dear esteemed host."
The person who was just stabbed to death appeared in a blank space. However the young boy had transformed into a young man in his early twenties. He had beautiful blond hair falling upto his hips which was a result of not cutting his hair for years.
He had a slender figure with a bit of masculine touch. Accompanied with a face of a beauty he looked extremely delicate, if not for the pair of his eyes which betrayed his delicate features.
His peach blossom eyes sharpened with a dangerous look.
The system sweared it even saw the pair of beautiful red eyes glittering and shimmering with an ominous aura.
"Host, Congratulations. You have now broken the million point milestone." Regardless the system ignored it and spoke positively. "Host, you have earned a total of...."
"Well? Unfreeze the OOC function!"
The system had its invisible eyes bulging out of its invisible eye sockets as a reaction.
