39 Chapter 39-Problems(2)(Edited)
As the violet-haired woman walked, there was a pressurizing aura around her. She didn't do it on purpose but was unconsciously released.
She walked and reached in front of Max, smiling behind her veil, she gave Max a small hug.
"It's nice to see you, dad."
"Ho... ho, looks like you still remember your old man."
Max laughed and relaxed, completely opposite to his normal character.
"I didn't think you would arrive so fast. Looks like you were very worried."
"I was, but after seeing how calm you are right now, I can tell that the problem is not much."
After that, she turned her head to the Emperor.
"You look healthy, Claus."
"Haha... I am fine, but how are you, Mira?"
"I am doing well."
Mira Lionheart, the second child and daughter of Max Lionheart, is a world-class beauty who was once courted by many men. At a young age, she displayed a terrifying amount of talent in magic. In her thirties, she had reached Origin Level 10, being at the peak. A once-in-a-thousand-years genius taken in as the disciple of the current leader of the magical tower, an imperial who had reached the pinnacle of power.
With beauty, strength, and background, many men had tried to court her, only to be rejected. Even the Emperors of both Ezraeil and Moonlight had tried to court her but ended up being rejected.
"Enough with the pleasantries. What happened to Austin?"
Mira spoke with a slightly cold voice. The Emperor sighed and started showing Mira the same recording.
Unlike Max, there was no change in her expression as she watched the video. But the small flickering of emotions deep in her eyes said something else. The more she watched, the more surprised and pleased she became. Unlike others, she could clearly define Austin's potential and future from this video.
From it, she could proudly proclaim that his potential might be higher than hers! Not only that, her nieces too awakened certain bloodlines, which meant that their potential was not low either.
'Brother would be proud.'
After seeing it, she walked towards Grace to comfort her. While she was comforting Grace, the door of the room in which Austin was currently getting treatment opened, and an old woman walked out from it. Seeing her come out, everyone waiting outside quickly moved towards her. She spoke, "Don't worry; he's fine. He might wake up in an hour or two."
After hearing the old woman's words, all of them let out a sigh. After that, they moved on to talk among themselves.
A few hours later...
Austin, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes.
"Damn... my head hurts."
Sitting up, he could feel his body was sore and a bit uncomfortable. The last thing he remembered was the harp flying towards him. Checking his body, he didn't see any permanent defects. Seeing that he was fine, he let out a sigh.
"Looks like it all worked out fine, and I even awakened my bloodline."
Thinking of his bloodline, a weird smile formed on his face. After receiving information about his bloodline, he was left a bit speechless at first. Instead of the hidden hero, it should have been the hidden pervert. This ancestor of his was quite the man.
His bloodline belonged to a certain human that used to live in the era of wars a thousand years ago. It seemed that he traveled around the world, making a harem and saving damsels in distress. His abilities and powers were leaning in that direction too.
[
Bloodline: The Hidden Hero
Description: The bloodline belonged to a man who had done so much for the world but was forgotten. He hid in the dark and protected the weak. Several women had fallen into his arms due to his lethal charms. At a certain point in time, his harem was a force to reckon with. Due to despair, he almost once destroyed the world.
1st ability: The Adaptor
Rank: F~~SSS
Description: You are able to adapt to anything, from the pressure of a dragon to even a goddess. Be it to anything to everything, your body will adapt to it, from curses to charms, nothing will affect you as you will "adapt" to it.
2nd ability: The Innocent Charm
Rank: S
Description: You will be more charming or, to be said, innocent to people around you. When you meet a person, as long as that person's not an enemy, that person will be more receptive to you. You will be more pleasing to a person's eyes. Even for a person without senses, you will be more pleasing to them.
3rd ability: The Contract
Rank: Godly
Description: You can put a certain contract on the women whom you have slept with. Once the contract is bound, they are loyal and affectionate to you even after death. Once bound, their feelings and desires are passed throughout their bloodline.
4th ability: Borrow
Rank: SSS
Description: As long as you have slept with women and have their permission, you can replicate a certain power of theirs for yourself.

There were some more special abilities too, but what had really scared Austin was the 3rd ability, which was brutal. The 3rd ability was basically a slave spell put on those women, meaning that no matter what, as long as a woman was involved with his ancestors and had that contract, if in the future her descendants who awakened their bloodline came close to him, as long as they awakened their bloodline, it's a guaranteed love. This contract spell is taking away the choice for any woman with the bloodline contact on them. What's more, terrifying was that among Austin's ancestor's women, almost all of them agreed to it. How much did they love him?
"Well, that explains Lora's behavior."
Shaking his head, Austin looked toward his arm, which had a small tattoo of a harp. Focusing on his will, he brought it out, and suddenly, the beautiful harp appeared in front of him. The harp was sky blue, with purple strings. The bow itself had many designs on it.
[
Item: The Musical Bow - Sphinx
Rank: Godly Supreme (broken)
Description: An item that was made possible by the combined will and sacrifice of a man. A bow that fired an arrow that almost ripped the world apart. A weapon that even caused fear to gods.
]
Looking at the harp's description, Austin had some complicated emotions. Actually, this bow was the second reason why he chose to be an archer. Even if he was strong, having a powerful weapon was still a bonus. There were several weapons that became divine weapons after being used by powerful figures. However, since the usage of the bow as a personal weapon was new, there were not many powerful bows. Even Eleanor's bow was something that grew along with her.
When the main protagonist saves Elda and wins over Nora by fighting for Elda in the historic world, he also receives something good from it. But in the end, there would always be a sentence:
"It's too bad that he was a swordsman and not an archer; otherwise, he might have a chance with the bow that the gods fear."
Austin was planning on entering the historic world once to look for it, but who would have thought that the bow had a relationship with his bloodline? That's right; the bow was used by his ancestor, and the harp belonged to the woman whom he loved the most.
