1 Chapter 1: Awakening

It was a cool sunny day for everyone, but not for Achlys. There were currently few thugs trying to extort money from his mother's little shop. They were simply bullying his family. "Oi, give us this week's money or don't mind me for being harsh with your shop" said a thug who was very fat. His boss was behind him with a few other 2 people. Holding weapons, scaring the people who lived in the slums were their favourite habit. It was said that a rich second generation is backing them. Since the thugs has killed a few people. When Achlys called the police, not only the police didn't come, they accused him for speaking fraud and spreading lies.

This world has a heirarchy, since this is a magical era of the 6th Empire era. There were other kinds who lived in this world. Such as Elves, Orcs, Demons, Angels. There are humans who call themselves "Mages" awakened their powers when they reach the age of 15. This year Achlys is going to 15, but he has no hopes for becoming a Awakened. Since he comes from a poor little family. He dreams of becoming a Knight. But he could he could look up to the famous celebrities on top of the mountain.There are kind mages that exist to protect the weak, thus there is an organisation that's called the Hundred Chained Arms. They are similar to the police. But they are Servants bound to the contract of the Master of the guild, so no one can betray, or take bribes from certain dark individuals. Then there are the top 2 strongest existences. The Angels and the Demons. There are many types of Angels but its unknown to the public, such as demons. He only heard of one kind only, his mother blabbers nonsense about vampires when she gets drunk after a tired day. Unfortunately, there are no libraries near the slums. They only exist in the cities, the nearest library is in Serberus city.

His father left his mother when she became pregnant, he only named the child in the womb, Achlys. And left the house, When he asks his mother about his father, she wouldn't speak about it. Rather she will cry. So in the end, he stopped asking her about his father. There was a gift his father left for him, it was a book, the strangest thing was, when he tries to burn it, the book doesn't burn, or when he throws it away. The next second, it will be in his arms. Its appearance was also strange as well. It looks like blood dripping from all the sides when it actually doesn't drip any blood.

The thugs were of the 2nd Realm. They could bully the people whose level is in level 1. The difference is like heaven and earth. "No!" His mother shouts out, "you've already taken the fees for this month, why are you doing this?" His mother asks the thugs while on the verge of crying."hehe, its because it's fun, the strong shall trample the weak, it's the survival of the fittest.That's why" said the boss of the thugs whose Realm was 3. There are ranks in this world, called Realms there are huge differences between each realms, and the highest realm is the Emperor overlord realm. Their breaths can destroy an entire continent, a single thought can lay destruction of cities.

"Will you give the money or not? Or we will kill your son." Says the fatty while brandishing his knife pointing towards Achlys."No!" Screams his mother and runs towards the fatty while holding a kitchen knife and shouting towards Achlys."Run!" She screams towards him as he was shuddering in fear. He cursed fate for making him so weak. He clenched his fists so hard that his nails pierced through his skin and soon his fist started dripping blood.

For some reason, the blood red book was right below his fist on the ground, and his blood dripped on it, it started glowing all of a sudden the book started floating and time seemed to freeze. He looked at his mother crying and trying to stall the thugs to stop them from attacking him. He saw her agonised face, the grinning face of the thugs and the fatty."Ding! Vlad's heir selected, will Heir accept the bloodline? 4 seconds remaining." Said a voice, he looked around and saw nothing and still the surroundings seems frozen in time."huh?" He looks for the book as he got more suspicious. "2 seconds remaining" says a cold voice in his head. "Accept" he said while preparing for the worst. "Ding! Heir has Accepted the inheritance, bloodline Awakened, Hybrid Vampire of the Ambrogio house" all of a sudden, he screams on top his lungs as his skin and face looked like as if someone ripped them all out."Ding!, Heir is expected to stay patient until the body transforms". Unexpectedly.."Ding! Heir is blessed by the Mind Emperor".
