8 Family

"Urrggh! Finally, I will now see for myself this powerful ability. That I have neglected in the past."

Remy could feel an extremely itchy feeling when swallowed the evolutionary orb earlier. It's like he ate a speck of dust, just makes it more dry and itchy that he wants someone to vomit, but unlike a normal cultivator, he didn't flinch.

"Zz.. zz.. do not scratch your throat.", The robot that is guarding him against harm is preventing him from the temptation, "Just endure a bit more and you'll be okay."

Remy was not disappointed even though he felt like he couldn't endure, but his determination endured it all. He knew what will happen and everything will be wasted if he forcefully rejected it.

"Zzz... z... Do not transform into your symbiotic beast mode or you'll regret it. zz,.. zzZ.." the robot added.

"Huh?"

Remy noticed that his back left side had a bat wing sprouted from it, so he forcefully retracted it. 'I still couldn't control it, huh?'

"Blitzz... Be prepared, your process is nearing its climax."

Remy listened and a little moment only had passed and he can see an incredible amount of smokey grey aura from his body. 'This is the undead or Death aura I am waiting for,' he figured out and suddenly, a sharp pain was felt from his left leg.

Then his face became numb, his eyes felt a stinging pain, and his stomach felt groggy. His hands are now gripped by the metallic white tiles on the floor. The tiles can withstand an elemental attack from earlier, but now it was being folded by his arms alone.

Remy, however, ignored it because the pain was spreading all over his body. He is vomiting blood, and even if he felt like he wanted to pass out from the pain. He endured it.

"Ziiziit control yourself. Whatever happens, try to stay awake or all your pain earlier will be for naught... Zizzi." Reminded by the robot that is guarding him.

"Yes!"

Remy endures as he bit his lips. The pain from the lip bite is incomparable to the more pain he felt all over his body.

A moment later, after enduring the painful torture. The pain disappeared and finally, Remy reached his target.

"Zzztt... Zizzit... Congratulations on your secondary evolution." The robot said, then he took out something from his mouth again and says, "Here, take this medallion chip."

Remy is puzzled. "What is this?"

He didn't truly know this, for he is not supported by this clan in the past because he missed the taming ceremony last life. He only heard this medallion from the clan, but he didn't know this thing and how this works.

"Ziziit... It is used to take part in towers, where you get a lot of rewards. Ziziit... I'll explain to you tomorrow, but for now, go home and enjoy your day with your family, Ziziit."

"I see," Remy said.

Then the robot turned around, as Remy could only say, "Alright." Then he followed the robot to the exit. Walking outside, he saw familiar figures waving their hands at him.

"YOUNG MASTER!!!"

"OLDER BROTHER!!"

"SON!"

"MY LITTLE BABY!"

Remy smiles warmly at them, 'This is my family.' But his mind is cold. He knew all of them and what they were.

In his last life on this planet, He still kept thinking of his family on earth that be left. He knew they were probably crying when he passed away. And this family of his in this plane warmly welcomed him and replace them.

But all of them are false bravado.

"CRASTECIAN!"

"BEANIE!"

"FATHER!"

"MOTHER!"

Remy shouted with fake happiness at his voice. He also waved at them with a fake warm smile.

"Ziziit... This is where I'll go. Remember, come back tomorrow so I could explain it to you, if not. Find it yourself. Ziziit..."

The robot suddenly said as Remy turned around and look at the robot with a smile, "Alright, goodbye." Then the robot left, and Remy he turned his attention to his family again.

When Remy is near to his family, "Crastecian," he said with a smile on his face and then hug gently Crastecian who also had a warm smile on his face, "Young master, congratulation. You've grown up nicely and looking very strong."

"Its thanks to you,"

Remy said warmly. Crastecian is their butler since he was just a child. Crastecian was the one who taught him a lot about this world, and the one who introduced to him and ignited his desire to become a Symbiotic beast cultivator.

He was there to train him in simple sword fighting despite being lazy; he was there to teach him language and was always there to watch him avoid him getting bullied.

But this guy is a dog of a clan. He is kind because he is a caretaker to look after the young blood from the higher realm that was sent here.

"Brother!"

A cute voice on his side called out. She is a beanie, his cute lolita made that calls him older brother. Remy once found her on the street covered in bruises that she said that she escaped from a rampaging Symbiotic beast cultivator.

Those rampaging Symbiotic beast cultivators disagreed on their tamed spiritual symbiosis beast that makes them unable to depend each other. Thus, it will cause their soul to become chaotic, making them go crazy like a madman that attacks anyone on sight.

"Hmmm. How are you bean-bean?"

Remy patted her little head. 'She can smile charmingly, it only means that the original soul is not awakened yet.' he thought. He remembers that this little girl who took two years to recover from her trauma is a powerful being.

'I am waiting for you, this time I won't let you sacrifice your everything.' Remy said as he didn't know what to react or to do to the expert lady, the true soul of this lolita in front of him.

He still couldn't understand it, this is also one of the reasons why he turned back the time and sacrificed the life of the powerful beast he is supposed to have.

Why is a woman who's been living for countless years did something to him that even he, found unthinkable.

Right now, she is sweet, obedient and a kind child that is so innocent and pure.

"I'm okay, I congratulate older, handsome, and sweet brother of mine. Finally, becoming a Symbiotic beast cultivator. You must protect me in the future... Hmmm-.. no! You must protect me always!" She demanded.

Remy, he couldn't help but say, "Alright, your brother will protect you." and says on his mind, 'I will protect you from me.' with a fake warm smile.

She extended her little hands and made a pinky sign. Remy knew this and also extended his hand to make a pinky sign.

"Pinky promise?" She grumpily said.

"Yes, Pinky promise."

Remy smiles warmly replied. Then he turned around and look at the man in front of him. Remy stopped smiling, but his eyes had a gentle glow and bowed. Although this family is not true, this synthetic father of his took good care of him.

"Father."

The father had a gentle look on him and nodded back while saying, "You've grown into a fine young man."

Suddenly, someone hugged him behind.

"My son, my baby boy, finally became a Symbiotic Cultivator. I'm so proud."

Remy smiled lovingly, as he knew who hugged him. "Mother."

He knew his parents were, but even so. He's been loved by them, he only cursed the clan.

He could remember that one time he got sick. His dad tirelessly worked for the whole week with little sleep. His mother would also comfort her in the hospital, singing lullabies, saying encouraging words, and a true love of a mother.

But all of them are not true.

He knew they were, but even then, he didn't hate them. So for now, he will be a little gentle.

"So, let's eat?"

After their happy family moment. The father interjected, it is now time that they would celebrate it at a local restaurant.

...

On the other side, two individuals were looking at him, one of them says, 'Ignorant, fake synthetic family.' when he witness Remy having a family moments

"Still, he is pretty much dangerous. We might fight him tomorrow." A long-haired man said.

"I can deal with that. I wanna try how strong he is." The arrogant one replies with a hint of excitement in his voice.

"There's a chance that the two of you would face each other. However, be careful, I still can't sense you winning." The long-haired man said.

"Heh! Don't be overly confident. Maybe he can counter you. That's why he is sending a dangerous signal to you. But what if I'm his weakness?" The arrogant man retorted.

The long-haired man only looks in the direction where Remy and his family went and mutters, "I hope so."
