chapter 3 - Murderous Lioness

[ You have received Creator (tensura),

1,000,000 Points, Total Concentration: Breathing (Attributeless).]

His eyes widened at the generosity of his father-in-law for giving him many wonderful gifts. Creator (Tensura) would be overpowered since it is able to create anything as long the magic user understands them excluding living creatures and depending on the mana energy could allow him to produce ridiculous and versatile powers.

[Ding! Dear I have a letter from the Omni-Emperor. Would you like to read it?]

'Yes Cereza thank you'

[Ding!

Greetings my son in law.

If you are reading this then you have already arrived at your destination. I will give you this starter pack so that it may help you grow stronger but I hope you wouldn't rely on it too much. Your journey is a very long one and I know you have many questions but don't worry you will know the answer in due time. Well anyways my son, I hope you and my daughter have a great time! Remember I will be waiting for you in the Origin Palace.

Ps. Please unseal me when you arrive.]

He was glad to have a generous father-in-law and prayed for his safety as he couldn't bear the horror he was experiencing right now from his wives. The young man turns to the white haired infant, Sapphire.

'It seems my father-in-law is in trouble.'

'I knew that's going to happen! Well, darling. I will sleep for now as my body seems a little bit sluggish. Good night.'

Sapphire fell asleep while Caelum pondered why she's feeling sluggish and vaguely guessed that this mortal body she's using is just a vessel and would take time for her to get used to. He had many questions regarding the unfathomable power of her unexpected lover and what the vast world in store for him.

He felt small and insignificant but knew it would be a waste of time comparing himself to an entity beyond time and space. Caelum needed to focus to grow stronger and end his family suffering before finding out he truly is.

Caelum guesses his origin and the truth who he really is. For now, he should use everything to his advantage and find his answers. He thought of opening the shop when Mereoleona picked him up looking him straight in the eye.

"I like that expression of your kid! Maybe I'll raise you to make a warrior and satisfy me in battle."

She saw how his eyes burned with the ambition of a warrior hungry for battle and strength. Mereoleona was planning to leave them in an orphanage but Caelum's spirit to grow power despites the odds caught her interest.

There was hardly anyone who liked to fight her beside her brother. It had become dull fighting him and wanted to find more challenges. Mereoleona intuition told her by raising him things would be more interesting than before.

Caelum was taken aback by her action but felt calm in his situation wondering why he was acting this way considering he would probably wet himself by now.

[Darling, this is a side effect to your wish to have [Unlimited Potential] and [Highest Possible Talent]. You are able to easily adapt and analyze most situations.]

He mentally nodded while staring straight into young Mereoleona who smirked after giving it some thought and placed him back into the basket.

"Those fools probably won't like it what I'm about to do but screw them!"

Mereoleona laughed it off taking the two orphans back to the clover kingdom and into her family. She always does what she wants and could care less what people think of her while everyone is unable to say anything while they are traveling. Caelum finally had the opportunity to check the shop.

[Ding! Here you are, darling.

'I couldn't believe what I'm seeing! Damn all of them were expensive even the normal Saiyan bloodline caused 10,000,000 SP! I didn't want to waste my SP just in case I needed them. Well, can you tell me how to get more points?'

[ You can acquire more system points in several different ways, one is breaking through your rank and the other is by doing mundane tasks in the future. There is also a way to sell items such as gold and other items to the system. ]

He once again mentally nodded thanking Cereza for the explanation and decided to fall asleep while pondering why he reincarnated as a baby but vaguely felt it had to do with better chances of adapting his body to the change.

===========

At the clover kingdom, Mereoleona arrived at the mansion that his family owned. Her arrival caught everyone's attention even more at the two baskets that she was carrying with her.

"Welcome back, Young Lady Mereoleona!"

Her family servant approached to greet her while looking at her young lady then to the two baskets that had two children sleeping soundly. The servant knew that their young lady had an unusual way of thinking than normal people in general. She acts less like a noble and more like a commoner yet none argue as she was a genius mage. Mereoleona handed the two baskets to her servant and said.

"Here take this. From now, these two children are under my care."

"B-But young lady, Lady and lord Vermillion would not approve of this."

"Like hell I care!? They owe it to me since I usually don't ask a damn thing from them. just give these two a room and take care of them while I'll handle things with my parents."

She firmly said giving no for an answer as the servant didn't say anything in fear of angering the lioness as they took the basket while Mereoleona head her way and few minutes later met with a young man that had similar colored hair but had more strict and discipline face than her looking at Mereoleona.

"How've you been, Mereoleona. Seeing your expression and this unshaking feeling that I'm having tells me that you did something outrageous once more"

"Still having that strict face of yours, Fuguleon? Well I just picked up two brats that caught my interest and plan on raising them."

"What!?"

Fuguleon was baffled hearing her sister had just brought two children implying that they were orphans and planned on taking them into their family. It was controversial for nobles to adopt children in the streets. Though, he isn't one who discriminates and looks down on commoners but still understands the bridge between noble and commoners.

"You're planning on adopting them to our family?"

"No, I'm not an idiot. I plan on just raising them and not turning them into noble. They might grow into fine magic knights that I could enjoy fighting."

Mereoleona was not a one track minded individual and understood that having them into her household would only cause problems for the two children. She only plans on raising them since their potential with them. Fuguleon stared at her sister and nodded since it would be enough.

"I hope you understand what you're doing."

She nodded before heading to meet up with her parents to discuss children she brought into their household. Mereoleona obviously had some backlash but her decision in raising them was final.

"As long as they are a servant to our family then it is permitted."

"But you should make sure to be responsible in taking care of them."

"Yeah yeah! Now that's done, then I'll go ahead and do some errands."

Mereoleona while her parents sighed at their daughter since they wanted her to be a normal woman but was far too violent to any suitors and preferred to fight than trouble herself with people that obviously have hidden intentions.

==========

Few years has passed since Caelum and Sapphire had been brought into the Vermillion household. Within that time, he familiarized himself with his new body at an early age that it baffled the vermillion maids and butler after seeing him started crawling in a few months after Leopold was born and took that time to see him. Mereoleona smirked when seeing how he was brimming with potential and didn't regret bringing him.

Sapphire easily adapted since she was built differently than mortals even if her body was heavily restricted by the world she was in. Regardless, Caelum had monstrous talent since he was able to learn to speak and understand the dialect that the native for Black Clover verse spoke.

This expectedly shocked everyone, even lady and lord vermillion and started considering raising him to be a valuable servant. Once he was able to walk properly used his money to buy educational books that exercise his mind and helped him occupy rather than spend a large amount of his time when he could memorize and understand the content of the book within a few minutes.

He had learned knowledge regarding agriculture, blacksmith, craftsmanship, sciences, math, business, etc. Whatever book he was able to get his hand in took the time to learn them all. This is a preparation for when his [Creator] reaches a certain level.

Caelum lacked the necessary Mana capacity to create complex things and took time to train it. He had few theories on how to use the [Creator] unlike the characters from fairy tail who lack imagination.

He obviously didn't forget to spend time with Sapphire who enjoyed every moment of their times which most people misunderstood as brother and sister relationship.

"It's like this Leopold and not that."

"I thought I got it, right! Okay done!"

Caelum at the age of 7 was busily teaching the youngest brother of Mereoleona, Leopold vermillion who treated him like brother despite their differences in status. It was fortunate that the Vermillion household is one of the more open minded nobles than the rest of them.

"Great work, Leopold!"

"Hehehe it was nothing!"

"Well well it's great to see you two getting along."

Fuguleon came in to check in the swing Caelum helping his brother made him smile and still surprised how much of a genius he was compared to most people. He had to admit even his knowledge couldn't compare to the young child before him.

It didn't hurt his pride and see that the future generations were bright and brimming with potential. He saw him as another sibling as well and though he was reserved before had gradually gotten close to him. He patted their heads receiving a smile from his brother and a light smirk from Caelum who stepped back a bit.

"Is there anything you need, sir Fuguleon?"

He gives some respect to him since he is one of the characters he admires, especially his quote of not staying weak. Fuguleon dislike his words since he truly view him as another brother and not some commoner.

"How many times I've told you that just call me Fuguleon without any honorifics."

"Hehehe I was just teasing you, big bro Fuguleon. Anyway, I'll be going since I have training with that Lioness."

"Hope to see your progress soon. Hmmm I'm curious to ask but where's the sapphire?"

"She went ahead to meet up with Mereoleona since I needed to stay and help Leopold."

"Then I won't hold you any longer. Come Leopold, it's time to meet up with your cousin."

"Alright big bro, Good luck, big bro Caelum!"

Caelum smiled patting his head before heading his way to where Mereoleona was waiting for him with murderous grin while Sapphire sat silently to spectate.

"Ready for more training!?"
