System evolution

Carrying Ainz back to their sleeping quarters at the center of the first floor castle, what she did not notice was the baby in her arms was erily silent with contemplative eyes filled with intelligence.

'Protect me my ass! What the point of leeching off someone to protect you with such powers. When you can still work towards gaining such crazy powers yourself, even if he could protect me everyday, what happens when he isn't around and my life was suddenly in danger? That will just make me a sitting duck, especially if the person choose to abandon you at death pont.

'To think that such powers are also in this world, that means even if there are no monarchs in this world, there are likely people as strong and powerful as them. If I can utilise my knowledge in this world, I can likely regain my former strength, and such powers I must get my hands on it!

'If possible, try to see if i was the only one who was reincarnated in this world or if there are others like me, I might have to risk it though. Have also noticed that the purity of ones bloodline are held in high regards in this world, judging from how even my so called father Andrew despises me, and how even the patriach barely made any notable sign beside, looking after me.

'If so showing some talent might attract unwanted attention from the main family descendants, but with the system supporting me behind the scenes, that could be easily taken care of. Yet, I don't want to appear too monstrous in talent that why I might need to understand how this family works.'

From how long he had lived, seen and witness as a monarch, he could imagine how rigid such a family would be, with the fight for succession with someone with an high status or thicker bloodline.

'I have been screwed once, before. I don't want that to happen again, either to myself or this woman Lilith if possible. Being powerless is a crime.'

He determined his plans, as he thought to himself, while Lilith was still preparing to put him in his baby cradle to rest.

'I guess this is a world where power is not given to men from the society they created, this must be a kind of unique power that seems to come from the inside of each individual, which belongs only to themselves just like Niflheim.

'The wyvern king mention something like a wizard, I must find something about it. And I must learn to walk and read as fast as possible, so I that I can have some of Independence and at the same, show some early talent in the literature field.

'It might lead me closer to books that describes or talks about how to be a wizard, but for now I should see what wrong with the system.'

As Ainz looked at the system message again, and he thought to himself the system said I had acquired something like a descendants? Accept what bloodline exactly? How useful is it to my current situation?

'Sounds like I was given something, after the Wyvern King died or did he give me intentionally but why exactly did it...?'

He grew up from the bottom and everything he owned himself he struggled for it, even in the process he had never refused anything that would increase his strength, even when he was a monarch.

However, that was a story for when he was on Niflheim. This foreign world he had appeared in was similar and crazy for him to overlook anything, and now he was being given something free?

Ainz pondered what he should do, and didn't want to answer he was once again afraid something he could barely fathom in his head would happen again.

But then the system, next written words urged him to make a quick decision.

Ainz couldn't tell if it was real, or he was hallucinating, but he knew was a moment away from losing something that might either change his life or ruin it at the same time.

{Ten}

{Nine}

{Eight}

'Huh? It just started counting just like that? Ainz noticed as he was thinking, the characters were slowly changing every seconds.

Now that things had naturally devolved to this, he might as well bite the bullet and ride the bulls.

'Since you are giving, it to me. Then system I accept it.'

He didn't need to utter a outward, he simply thought this in his head. And then, the system started writing more words.

[Error in system....]

[ Host soul going through abnormalities]

[ Host shall now go into slumber!]

'Wait wha...?' Before Ainz could complete his statement, he noticed his body suddenly felt heavy after reading the last message the system sent.

With every second, Ainz felt more drowsy but he was being determined not to fall into a slumber, because this was the same way he had come into this world.

For someone who had went through the effectbof slumber and then died, he was beginning get scared of what might happen if he suddenly slept again. What were the odds of finding a suitable environment to live in? Zero or even More Zeros.

In the dimly lit room, Lilith carried the sleeping Ainz into his cradle, she softly touched his face and smiled at him before wrapping him up in a velvet.

While Ainz felt unwilling to sleep, nothingtheless he still fell into a slumber. He was currently In a deep sleep, while his body slowly but repeated grew little dark greenish scale on his body replacing his tan and tender baby skin.

If Lilith was here, she would have probably made a huge scene which would have led to a ruckus.

Meanwhile, his baby eyelashes trembled from time to time, as though he experiencing something uncomfortable.
