Chapter 1 - Celestial Dragon

Sylver has been in a dark place for a very long time. He didn't know where he was, or why he was even here. Sylver could only remember his name, and nothing else.

Days has clearly passed, but Sylver didn't know how many days had passed, did week pass by? Or perhaps months? But none of that mattered to Sylver, because he was starting to feel comfortable in this dark and warm place.

As the Heavens might have heard Sylver's thoughts, the dark, warm comfortable place began trembling, almost like the small world of Sylver would shatter into pieces.

And for some reason, Sylver didn't panic at all. He was slightly sad, but calm. Only a few minutes passed by before he saw a certain light in the distance. And it felt like that his body was being pushed towards that direction.

It didn't take long before Sylver was met with cold air surrounding his body and light that blended his eyes. But that wasn't the least of his problems, because the next moment, he felt something so painful that shook even his soul, a slap on his butt! 'You bastard!!!' Sylver roared in his mind, but all that escaped his mouth was weak cries "wahh..."

Then Sylver heard noises around the place where he was. "Madam, you have birthed a healthy son, congratulations!" And then Sylver felt that he was being handed over to a soft pair of arms. Sylver had his eyes open, but most of what he could see was blurried. But Sylver knew one thing, that the person holding him made him feel warmness, and he could feel the tenderness the woman was giving him through his soul.

It didn't take long before Sylver closed his eyes and his breathing calmed down, he was sleeping peacefully in the arms of his mother.

And as Sylver fell asleep, the woman holding the baby couldn't help but smile, she was covered in sweat, but her face was rather beautiful, and the smile made it look almost like that she came out of a picture painted by a master painter.

As she was focused on the baby, the door opened up and a tall handsome man entered the room with a worried expression. He hastily stared at his wife and the baby in her arms, that was the moment he let out the sigh of relief he was holding in for the past few hours. He slowly walked to his wife while speaking in a soft tone. "Scarlett, are you holding up alright?"

The woman - Scarlett, just answered with a short "Yes." while staring at her child. Scarlett has long bright red hair which was flowing down to her waist.

The man - Thor, didn't care by his wife's short answer at all, as he was also staring at his child.

The baby in Scarlett's arms has short silver hair, chubby cheecks and fair white skin. Both Thor and Scarlett gazed at the baby for over five minutes before the two of them raised their heads and gazed into each other's eyes, ""Sylver"" Both spoke of this name at the same time while smiling.

Thor couldn't help but to smile joyfully, as he had finally an heir. But beneath the joyful expression, he was also trying to hold back his anger, as he was reminded by that his wife - Scarlett, couldn't give birth to another child any longer. All because of those pirates that managed to poison Scarlett in the early stages of her pregnancy.

"His name will be - Sylver Von Erzia, the heir of the Erzia Family." Thor said with a strong voice, he was truly happy to have a child, and he would do everything to keep him safe in the future.

Both Scarlett and Thor was thinking of the same thing untill the door was abruptly opened by a man dressed in a white suit and a simple white mask that only had holes for the eyes. "Master!"

Thor turned around slowly, gazing at the CP0 member with curiousity, neither Thor or Scarlett was angry at the CP0 member for rushing in, because both of them knew that the CP0 members wouldn't do anything like this unless it was necessary. "Do you have anything to report, Owl?" Thor asked in a deep voice, as he had ordered the CP0 members to find the culprit of who poisoned Scarlett a while back.

Owl - the CP0 member went into a military salute as he reported in a strong voice. "Yes, I do! With the help of the Navy and the other Celestial Dragons, we finally managed to find the culprit." Owl suddenly felt a heavy pressure in the room, but he didn't dare to wait for much longer as he continued reporting. "The most likely culprit is the Emperor of the Seas - Red Haired Shanks, we have found evidence that Red Haired Shanks wants to kill the offsprings of the Celestial Dragons in order to weaken us!"

The pressure in the room was very heavy, even Owl who was very strong, could barely keep stand straight. The only ones that didn't feel this pressure were Scarlett and Sylver, this was because Thor had control of his strength and abilities.

"Good. Good. Good. You have truly angered me this time, Red Haired Shanks...!" Thor slowly narrowed his eyes.

The pressure continued to grow stronger for each second passing, but it all vanished the moment a soft voice sounded out in the room. "Thor, we can't act right now. We are already having trouble protecting the islands under our area, and Sylver has just been born. As Celestial Dragons, we must protect before we go attack."

Thor gave a long sigh, he knew that Scarlett was right. He gave a short glance to Owl while speaking. "Owl, we need to ensure the protection of the civilians, and as we now know what Shanks wants to do, we need to protect the children. We can't afford to lose any young Celestial Dragons in this chaotic period." Thor gave a short glance towards Scarlett before returning his gaze to Owl. "Also tell the other Celestial Dragons that we should let the young Celestial Dragons go to classes together."

"Yes Master!" Owl saluted one more time before turning around to leave with haste.
