“I wonder why mom came at this time, she usually waits till the December festival…”, looking at the small sized mansion ahead of him, the guy was seemingly back to a stable state of mind.
He moved through the glowing black and silver gate leading into the compound surrounding the mansion like it was non-existent, then continued walking forward through the small sized lawn on the pathway in the middle of it. He climbed up the steps as he came to the front of the grand door glowing a subtle reddish-golden color and walked right through the door too looking like he was a ghost that could pass through material objects.
On passing through to the other side, the sight of an empty front hall entered his eyes, seeing no one there he continued without stopping as he took a left turn and reached a small corridor with a staircase leading up to the first floor, almost at the same time as his feet landed on the first step, he heard an aged voice calling out to him from behind him, “Young master”. Jumping like he had his butt set on fire, he looked behind him to see the person who he knew was talking as he showed an indignant expression, “Oh come on Kasali, how many times have I told you to stop doing that, you act like a specter every single time you have the chance to spook me, you made it seem like I was scared which I obviously wasn’t….” the young man said indignantly.
“Lad your mother asked me to immediately direct you to her once you’re home so…” the man who looked like he was in his late sixties said with a straight face, the young guy had a defeated look on his face “Fine, I’ll leave you alone for now you old bag of bones. Next time we duel though, you most definitely can’t use any of the elements though when we fight. You’re a complete bully, I mean honestly….”, the man started smirking slightly with a mischievous glint in his eyes when his eyes zoomed onto a figure at the top of the stairs and his expression immediately turned to that of a wise old man listening to one from a younger generation bicker and complain, he even started stroking his goatee to complete the picture.
“Hey what’s wrong with you, did a brain worm enter your head or something…” the guy immediately noticed and knew something was wrong, but the old man didn’t even give him any time to think well, “Will you stop stroking your beard it’s…woah, hey hey…” the guy didn’t finish talking when he noticed he was already floating off the ground with no control over his movements, and he even started spinning “hey, hey, you put me down this instant you old bag of bones, how can your face even take this much!!”. “U need to learn how to release all that flame within you and maintain a calm mind and heart, only then can you have the mannerisms and strength of an expert, you-…”, the man started to say before he was cut off,
“You despicable bully, I haven’t even synergized yet and you want me to have the mannerisms of an expert? Don’t let me lay my hands on you….arhh!!”, The shoulder of the figure at the top of the staircase started quivering slightly and it seemed like he/she was actually holding back some laughter, “Kasali u can stop this now, put down my son”, the voice was a warm yet a little sultry voice, it felt like the voice of a holy temptress, one you couldn’t dare to blaspheme, it obviously came from a woman. “Alright, I’ll put him down”, the old man said with the smirk still on his face and like there was no longer anything holding the young guy up in the air, he dropped back down to the ground, and landed hard.
Thud!
Still fuming at the embarrassing bullying he had just experienced, he turned back and said to the woman “Mom!, how can you watch him attack me like this and not do anything, even when you told him to put me down, he still just dropped me on the ground, now that’s just wrong!” the guy said with indignation. “Honey, mommy won’t be able to be there to stop him every time he bully’s you, you have to stand up to him on your own, keep that in mind will you. Now why don’t you just give mommy a hug”, stretching her arms wide she hugged the guy and held him really tight and then she started ruffling his sleek curly hair, “Mom, I’m not a ten year old anymore”, the guy grumbled even though he felt warm,
“Ha! You are not even as old as a single strand of my hair yo-….” Kasali, who couldn’t help but further tease the guy suddenly stopped when he saw Maria looking at him with a strange light in her eyes, it was clearly emotionless but he saw a sharp glint flash deep within that pair of sky blue eyes. Gulping silently he shut his mouth and looked the other way.
“You wouldn’t be able to stop me from hugging you whenever and however I like, you will always be my blessed and cute little angel, oh I’ve missed you so much…”.
“More like a sinister demonling to me” looking at the mom and son pair hugging each other, Kasali muttered under his breath but seeing the woman turn her gaze toward him again he quickly looked away. “First go freshen up wll you, you smell like you had a long day” Maria lovingly looked at her son as she urged him up the stairs, “alright mom just give me a few minutes”.
He moved up the stairs while Maria and Kasali both followed him up with their eyes feeling worried. Maria looked on with just the slightest bit of worry in her eyes though, it was actually Kasali who had a deep tint of worry apparent in his eyes and he was the one who spoke after lightly sighing “looks like losing his sweetheart has impacted him a bit, even when he was yelling at me I could see a little bit of pain in his eyes, he tried to hide it but he’s still a few years lacking in that ability….”.
Still looking up the stairs Maria had an odd look in her eyes like she was remembering something, or rather someone “He’ll be fine, after all he’s my son and his father’s, from what I know about his father he’ll turn that pain into the motivation he needs and be more firm and determined. He’ll need all that for what’s about to come, I almost feel like I’m going to push him into danger and I can’t bear thinking of anything bad happening to him” she said.
“Maria you don’t need to worry that much, you underestimate your son a lot and you underestimate that devil that’s his father even more, trust he’ll be fine and he’ll amaze you beyond belief, his bloodline is after all one of the strongest in the races fighting against the aboriginals, worrying is not going to do anything right now, opening his eyes to the power of his family line is what you should do right now” Kasali comforted her as best as he could, after all even he couldn’t possibly stop being amazed by the power each successive generation of this bloodline brings to light, he had complete faith in the original power that runs in their blood…
“Mom some privacy please!”, a cry of indignation rang out from behind a quickly shut bathroom door, “oh please, What haven’t I seen of it… besides, who asked you not to wear any clothes when coming out” taking a seat on one of the couches in line of sight of the bathroom, Maria said with a teasing smile, “This is my room, not the living room”, opening the door and coming out he walked through a faint red sheen of light looking like a second door to the bathroom that vaporized the water droplets on his body and rapidly turned a faint blue color before fading away. He started talking but was cut short before he could finish what he was saying “So what’s up, this is an odd time for your visit, not like I’m not happy you came but..-”, “I came to take you home honey….” Maria said as she cut in.

“…”
Silence reigned supreme for ten seconds before Maria spoke up again “aren’t you excited?”, a little while later he spoke up “I would be if you ever told me anything about where I came from, other than you and-”. His words were cut short again when Maria cut in with her words, “I’ll tell you everything you want to know today, right now, is that okay?”.
“Really?”, Surprise was evident on the guy’s face as he was ready to finally be able to know something more about things related to him after almost sixteen years of thinking about it without getting any reasonable or tangible information. After so long without knowing who exactly he was, his mind was forced to come up with different possibilities but it just wasn’t possible to cross the thoughts out of his mind. “In truth, I could have told you everything you wanted from the first time you asked but u just weren’t ready to carry the burden that is within your bloodline….” Sighing with a thoughtful expression she continued “you should have learned about the theory of our evolution and about the planetary transmigration, the truth is the first generation of our race that transmigrated had no part in the transmigration, some people like to call it the ascension and revival of earth because in truth the way of the transmigration was like an ascension but this is it….
“The universe we once lived in and called our part of it the milky way was actually an incubator, an incubator for planets, it’s like the womb of a woman, the millions of years that earth existed within that place was merely it’s gestation period, only after earth became populated significantly and could be said to be ‘mature enough’ was it able to be brought out into the world as a newborn
“After earth was truly born it started evolving and because of that the life-forms inhabiting the planet also evolved alongside it, some of the plants evolved, animals also evolved, when the animals evolved, they suddenly started becoming way stronger and more powerful, at a particular point they become a troublesome matter for the humans, they started become resistant to our weapons and ammunition, they became sentient and started fighting for dominance but we worked something out with them and signed a treaty with them, when the animals evolved, the humans followed suit, but when evolved although we also became more stronger and resilient, we realized something else hidden deep within us, our bloodlines,
“Bloodlines are like the pathways in which we can develop and grow and realize amazing and unimaginable power, it had been genetically imprinted into our blood, body and soul and is what we were born with. There were different levels of bloodline talents that emerged when the humans on earth were enlightened on the pathway, talents which showed what realm of strength you’ll ultimately be able to reach, we couldn’t realize that strength before down in the milky way because in a way we were closed from a particular kind of energy, it was that same energy that caused everything including the planets, the plants and animals and we the humans to evolve and realize our potentials, we called it the cosmic energy, is the energy around us that powers almost everything u see around you…..
“Honey, when earth ascended and started evolving, all the previous power and authority systems collapsed, and when the humans started evolving and showcasing different levels of strength and talent, segregations and alliances were formed, not just alliances, clans, schools, sects, institutions, academies, all of them of varying strengths and influence, as time went on, some of these groups of people had their strength and influence reduced and some lost mostly due to the corrosion of time and some due to other major groups assault on them, Honey when your father’s great great grandfather, who I should say is one of the first people here after the ascension, was once a member of the armed forces, at the point before the ascension, the entire Earth’s armed was united as a whole in an expedition to find and conquer any other life-forms found on any other planet, it was a big undertaking that was first proposed when Earth’s NASA agencies discovered a whole new life-forms with extreme but not total resemblance to our own species in an entirely new galaxy, it was to take many years of preparation and training because some people deemed it a dangerous undertaking considering the fact that we knew close to almost nothing about the other species, the decision was almost overruled but some really influential tycoons managed to keep it on track.
But the expedition never occurred, instead before the time for it ever came, earth ascended. So although it was never acted upon. The military forces of earth had already been merged together and they were extremely united and they only became even more united after earth ascended and separations started to occur within the people and countries and other power systems. Some of those newly formed organizations decided to move and left earth to look for other places to settle down on, those who left were deemed as deserters somewhat, as they left at the point when earth needed all the help it could get, but they didn’t care much because they found other more resource filled planets and spaces and they settled down, while some of them were destroyed, others actually managed to muddle their way into other planets and settled down quite well.
They couldn’t be blamed much because others saw some benefits in it too. So some others did the same too but they left bases back here on earth while some others were staunch aversists toward the entire idea of even leaving so they stayed rooted here and didn’t move. The military army was part of the ones who left bases on earth and moved out to find more resources but because of the fact that they once fought and protected on the surface of this earth, they felt more attachment to this place than the others, so they left an entire double headquarters here, but their true headquarters isn’t even on any planet at all, it’s in a folded space that’s relatively close to earth-” “Mom am I somehow related to the military of earth, they seem to be the main lead of your story…”. “I just needed to clear you up on some histories… yes honey, you Are related to the military of earth, the military system of earth is now an independent organization, its divided and controlled by eight top families within, Alpha, Omega, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Fox and Golf, these families are ranked from first to seventh, with the Alpha being the first and the Golf being the seventh, there are two Alpha families actually, Alpha-Ranger and Alpha-Layk. Honey you’re the seventh generation born of the Alpha-layks, a descendant born to the direct descent of the layks, the heir to the commanding power of one of the top families of the Khaki Legions….”
Looking up to see her son blank faced, she knew things would no longer be the same, he would never have a normal life again until possibly extremely far off into the future and that would be in a very long time, she would have to be the one to wake him up and push him into the life that’s ahead of him, into the world that would need him to grow as soon as possible, and into the high league post that is that of the Khaki legion, somewhere deemed to be a place filled with crazy behemoths, the prestige of an Alpha family could not be challenged, but they still won’t make it easy for him “Alpha-Layk Ijin, you’re the heir to a power that commands clout over a good amount and has been made known throughout the entire lower Realm of Oasis. You might not understand all this just yet but I’ll tell you this now, you’ve to grow up a little bit quicker than you thought you would, the life we’re throwing you into is one that isn’t the usual you have known. I know u’re not ready for all this, but you have to step into this, and you have to step into it starting tomorrow.
