With a smile on my face I pull grandpa Gobto than with me into my room. While the goblin prepares some tea, I played with the sapling in my hand. "What the fuck should I do with something like this? I mean that’s a source of sacred uncommon materials, but it is useless for me. Do you think he knew that I want to follow the unholy path and gave me the sapling, because of that? As he knows that it will be useless for me?"
"Ghihihihi. Who knows what that old man knows and what he not knows, but is that really so important? He gave you something really great. It's not useless for you at all you know young master." Gobto says smiling while giving me one cup of the tea.
"Is it? I mean the bows made out of this wood have a skill if they are equipped that does double damage against undead. You should know that I have to use a lot of corpse to create an unholy ground if I want to birth some demons later on. This unholy ground will probably create a few undead out of the corps than. Shall i equip my undead with a bow used mainly to destroy undead?" I said between taking sips of the tea.
I know Gobto since I am a little child, so I knew that he would never lie to me. So I pondered hard how the sapling could be useful to me. As the old goblin was sitting there smiling and not willing to answer the questions I made a few minutes ago, I know that he wants me to discover myself. That’s why I started to think hard about the usage of this sapling while looking at it. Suddenly I opened my eyes wide.
"Don't tell me...." a big smile started to show on my face "Can I use the unholy ground to corrupt this sacred tree sapling?" I started to laugh loud "I will corrupt this sacred tree sapling and turn the tree into an unholy one. I will than use this tree to farther corrupt the land i plant it in."
"Ghihihihi, I knew young master would get it without the help of this old fool. But master i have an important question, I want to know."
"You want to know why I choosed this old book? Well, see it for yourself." I interrupted Gobta before he could finish his question and throw the book to him. "You are a goblin, well a variant at least so you should posses some demon blood in your vines right? I think you should see the same thing I saw when i looked at this book. Can´t you feel it? The book is calling for me. No he is calling for the demon blood that flows in my vines. Read the book and tell me if you than still think I choosed wrong."
After the goblin caught the book i could hear him slowly whisper "Lemegeton... isn't that..." That’s all I could hear as i was already sitting in lotus position and concentrating on my Realm. Through that every sound in my surrounding is cut off.
What i saw was nothing. I didn´t see a thing, my Realm was a white space. "This old bastard gave me a totally newborn Realm. This Realm didn´t even birth a planet by itself. This asshole, normally the Realms that get bestowed during the coming of age ceremony are at least ten thousand years old and have already born one to three planets by itself. This Realm is at most a century or two old."
//I knew from the beginning that I will get only a trash Realm from this sly old fox, but i expected it to have one planet, who would have known that he will give me something like this. But beggars aren't choosers. A trash Realm is still a Realm nonetheless//
I only had to concentrate for a few seconds on this empty white space before the keeper system showed up.

At first I wanted to choose the World of Darkness Package as I sounded exactly like what i needed and also wanted, but to create everything from scratch sounded also not that bad at all. Well even if i don´t have to pay for the World itself I am pretty sure that it will be more expensive to build the world from scratch then using the World of Darkness Package. So instead of choosing now what I want I dismissed the idea of creating my first World now and put it on hold for now. I choose to create my first World in my Realm later so that I could get a few things before getting started.
I slowly opened my eyes and looked at the old goblin before me "And what do you think now? Did I choose wisely or not? From the big smile on your face and your sparkling eyes I assume that I choose wisely"
Gobto was so focused on reading his book that he didn´t notice that I opened my eyes. That’s why he jumped from fright after I started talking. "Young master, this old goblin almost got a heart attack just now, could you please not frighten this old man to death?" He smiled at me big and carefully gave the book back to me. "I assume young master is also able to read it right? So why don´t you read it yourself and see what a great thing you got there. Sadly that´s not the original but a rewritten and downgraded version of this book. Well that may be better so as it will be easier for young master to gain a few insights with this version than the original as the original would maybe even to high for the madam."
I almost dropped the book after I heard the last few words the goblin just said. The madam of whom Gobto just spoke is naturally my mother, a real demon. //Who is able to write a book over demons that not even a real demon possibly can gain insights from? // I now knew that my guess that this book contains informations about demons was correct. With demons I meant not such false demons like goblins are, I meant real demons like my mother is one.
We exist in a Three-layered Realm.
Our feet are standing on the Middle Layer. If we rise our heads and stare at the cloud above us we look at the Top Layer. If we lower our heads and stare at the ground below our feet we look at the Bottom Layer.
This Realm was goverend by two brothers. The older brother created the Layer on the Top and the younger brother created the Layer at the Bottom. To prevent problems they created the Middle layer as a buffer zone, they planned to govern the Middle layer together.
To show each other the trust they have in the other, two books were created. One holding the secrets of the Heaven and the other one holding the secrets of the Abyss. Heaven is the name for the layer govern by the older brother and Abyss is the name for the layer govern by the younger brother.
The book holding the secrets of Heaven is called Shemhamphorasch.
The book holding the secrets of the Abyss is called Lemegeton.
Under the leadership of these two brothers their Three-Layered-Realm grows and prospers, but through the years these two brothers started to argue more and more. Both of them had the feeling that without the other their Realm would already be stronger and also better.
As none could invade the Layer of the other they started to fight out their wars on the Middle Layer. My father got choosen by the Heaven to fight against the Abyss. Heavens plan was to use my father and his magic power to seal the demons of the Abyss. For this task the Heavens granted a book to my father, which should be know by the later generations as King Salomon. They granted him the book containing all the secrets of Abyss, they granted him the Lemegeton.
But my father refused to be a puppet for the Heavens and didn't use the Lemegeton against the Abyss. With the Lemegeton in his Hand and 72 enslaved Demons he turned against the Heaven.
The act of turning against the Heaven enraged the older brother and he put a curse on our bloodline. Without the interference of the younger brother, this curse had destroyed all members of our bloodline, but the younger brother was only able to weaken the cures and not remove it. Maybe the younger brother simply didn't want to remove the curse, after all my father may have turned against the Heaven, but he still used the Lemegeton to enslave 72 demons from the Abyss.
Slowly the curse, which still run through our vines turned into a bloodline demon. This demon slowly but surely turns us all insane. In the last few years of my sanity i decided to do two things. The first thing was to destroy the Lemegeton so that nobody else can use the information stored. I don´t care if they would have used it for the good or the bad, I just hoped that I could remove the curse through this. Sadly i had to discover that the Lemegeton can't be destroyed, so I hid it in a place where hopefully no one will ever find it.
The second thing i decided to do was to write down as much as i could about the creation of demons and their powers. So that, if I should be reborn and the bloodline demon still exists, I could use my notes to take revenge on the heavens.
While I was reading the first few pages of this book it already turned dark outside. Sadly I had to stop after reading only so much, as I started to get a headache. With a bitter smile I looked at the closed book before my eyes. Only this few pages already contained so much, from what I could get insights from. What interested me the most was clearly the thing the author called bloodline demon. //Is it possible to recreate such a thing like a bloodline demon? If yes is it possible to use such a bloodline demon to strengthen creatures?// I decided to call it a day and study the book sometime later, as tomorrow would be the start of a long and hard journey.
