We’ve passed through the great hall and continue walking towards the throne room. Along the way, we saw someone dressed up like a knight. We also passed by some of the maids, everyone was fully uniformed. They looked at us with awe and respect.
Fortunately my eyes reverted back so no one would know about what happened to my eyes, only me and Sasha knows.
I looked at my shoulder and saw Sasha. Though she was wearing her usual demeanor; cold, confident and emotion-less, I could tell that she was nervous. Well, not that I can blame her today is my big day after all, it’s my sixth birthday and today I will also receive my status plate.
We arrived in front of a set of huge double doors that was designed beautifully, there are two Soldiers stood at attention on both sides of the door. They immediately smile when they saw us approaching.
“The Prince of the Dragonfang Kingdom, Lyle Drake Dragonfang-sama has arrived!”
Without waiting for a reply, they opened the door. We entered the doorway leisurely. There was a red carpet that led from the entrance all the way to a luxurious throne. On the throne sat a middle aged man that conveyed ambition and dignity. It was my father. The woman next to him was my mother, the queen. As soon as they saw us, they immediately beamed us with smiles.
I wanted to run and hugged them, but I stop myself. I need to carry myself with elegance and pride; I need to show them that I am not a child anymore. I straightened my back and calmly walked towards them. Sasha stopped at the doorway and just quietly watched me as I walked.
Arriving in front of the throne, I stopped and kneeled
“Rise my son!” a cold voice rang out.
Obviously it was my father. Although his voice was cold, I can feel that he was very happy looking at me. Beside him was my mother who is smiling at me this whole time.
“Yes father!”
“Son, congratulations on your birthday!” the surrounding people clapped and its sound reverted in the room. Father raised his hand and the clapping cease and became quiet. “As our tradition goes, we will conduct the status ceremony! High priest Jindo!”
A mild applause and my father turned to the man standing next to him, “High-priest Jindo, if you would please begin the test.”
“Yes, your highness,” said the man as my father sat back down. He took a plate and an orb and walked towards me.
“Prince Lyle, this is the status plate. It is your personal identification plate. It contains your personal record such as; identity, blessings, skills and your equipment information. Just drop some blood on it to begin the status process,” he said while handing the plate to me “But before that please place your hands on this orb, this orb is called status orb. This orb is used to project your status so that others can also see it.”
I reached out and held the orb.
“Recite ≪Status≫ in your mind.” He said.
I did as I told. Upon that a status screen like from a game appeared in front of me.

Caution: Troubles are coming in your way (LOL) - Venus.
I was shocked; these blessings are all filled with absurdity. Most were way too overpowered but what concerns me is Venus blessing…
‘What the hell! This is not a freaking blessing it’s a freaking curse!!!! Is this a new way of bulliying!? What the hell!’ I was screaming in inside my mind. ‘ Cecelia? That name’s very familiar, but why can’t I remember it?’
I let out a defeated breath. Not that I can change it. ‘come what may’ is what others say, so just leave it at that.
I look around and noticed that everyone else was just as shocked as I was. My mother and the high-priest in front of me had their hands over the mouths. Sasha looked dumbfounded as she looked at my blessings but I can also feel a tinged of worry from her. The knights as well as the people inside the throne room were wide-eyed and they forgot to close their mouths like they should’ve. My father is just looking at the screen with wide eyes. It seems he forgot to keep his cold and majestic demeanor. Not like I can blame them though, just looking at the big screen floating in the air I feel like crawling inside the hole.
*sigh* this blessings are really broken! And what the hell are these Titles? When the hell did I rank up? From what I know there are 9 ranks in this world; E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS, and the last but almost unattainable is the deity rank.
But I should still be in E rank, when did I become C rank. While I was pondering about these questions floating in my mind,
“Well… this seems quite shocking…. Hahaha i-indeed!” Drenched in cold sweat, my father’s usual smile cramped when he saw my status, “L-lets end the c-ceremony here! It’s getting late, now come, join us for the rest of the night!” my father said dispelling the strange atmosphere inside the throne room.
“Your majesty, but we…” the man clad in white clothes, the High-priest Jindo seems he wants to say something but when he saw my father’s eyes he stopped and silently followed.
A banquet was held after and the people that came were able to enjoy this world’s cuisine. Together with my father and mother, we sat in front of the banquet hall. I noticed that every now and then, some people will look at me, especially women who always invite me to dance. But I always rejected it because I’m tired of todays shocking revelations as well as I’m also anxious about that humungous egg I hide in my room. Only me and Sasha knows it, I don’t want any people take it.
While I was thinking about that egg, I suddenly recall what happened this afternoon after the egg appeared.
*************
Anxious, I picked a stick and slowly tap it at the egg but nothing happened so I approached it. Behind me, Sasha was grabbing my shirt wearing a troubled look. I ignore it and continued.
Without much time, I just grabbed it and hide it in my room. I change and then proceed to the throne hall. I ordered Sasha to keep quiet about the egg as well as my eyes, which reverted back to normal without me noticing.
*************
‘hm? Now that I think about it, that thing, is it the magic eyes?’ I look at my mother beside me.
“Mom, do we have an Uchiha ancestor? or maybe we have someone with alpha stigma?” I ask.
She looked at me with puzzled look. “Uchiha? alpha stigma? Who’s that? I don’t think so, why?”
*sigh* so Uchiha clan really is just a pigment of imagination back in earth? And I thought it’ll be good if it’s real
“Then what about the magic eyes thing?”
“Magic eyes? I don’t think we have that in our lineage. But forget about that now, we’ll talk about it later! For now just enjoy the celebration!” she said while smiling.
After the celebration ends, I immediately went back in my room.
