Chapter 4 Awakening The First Demon Bloodline
When he was a year and nine months old, the young Liam walked out of his room dressed in black attire, his mom wasn't in her chamber which was the one he have been living since birth.
Only when he began sneaking into the book vault that he began leaving the room but not entirely, the book vault was just several distance away.
When he was almost outside, two young maids holding baskets of clothes walked in.
The moment they saw him, they dropped their baskets, ran to him and began playing with his cheeks while calling him sweet names but Liam coldly walked past them.
He felt belittled anytime he was treated as a kid.
"Young master Liam is so cold even at a tender age." one of them said with braided hair said to the other.
"I thought i was the only one, he just gives me chills, he will certainly become a heart breaker and a woman killer when he grows up."
Meanwhile, Liam was already out.
From where he stood he was able to finally get a clear view of the environment that was tidied, the surface was tiled with beautiful green plants and beautiful trees that served as ornaments.
Emerald's chamber was big.
But compared to other structures, it can be described as the house of slaves.
The whole of their family covered several hectares, it has a large fence, but he could only see one part of it because of where he was.
Several meters ahead was a large penthouse, he could hear the sound of glass clinking, music playing and other stuffs that proved that something like a party was going on there so as a guy who haven't witnessed one he decided to check it out to quench his curiosity.
"Where do you think you're going?"
He heard the voice that belongs to a child, he frowned, his cute face twitched as he coldly stared at the intruder who turned out to be a pretty young lady with pink hair and blue eyes, she seems to be around 7 or so.
"I'm going over there, is there a problem?" He asked but that made the pretty girl enrage.
"You! you're a cursed child, what makes you think you're someone special, I'm sure it's that mom of yours feeding you with good words."
"A cursed child?" He asked with his calm baby voice, he didn't seem bothered as he should have after hearing his mom get insulted and himself addressed as cursed.
"Yes, my mom said you're cursed, that's why dad refused to let you out of your mom's chamber, humph! if you know what's good for you get inside before dad's guests finds you here... cursed.."
At that moment, Xavier walked out of the penthouse wearing a gloomy face, his eyes spotted two figures, one was his little brother, Liam and the other was his stepsister, Amelia.
'Not good.' his heart skipped a beat before he began racing at his peak speed. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦m
"Emelia, why are you bullying my little brother, he's still a kid yet you can't control your tongue when talking to him aren't you ashamed of yourself?"
"Humph, losers!" Emelia snorted and left.
"Did she do anything to hurt you? don't mind her, Liam, she's just trying to make you feel inferior to her."
Xavier was several heads taller than Liam, he bent down and patted the hair of Liam while consoling him.
Liam was a tad bit touched by Xavier's protection, so he rewarded him today with a face that didn't look so cold.
Xavier then led him inside their mom's chamber once again.
He felt that his brother was bored, so he ran out to bring two wooden swords, from then on both of them will always have a sparring session two times in a week because Xavier was busy learning how to lead the family from his father.
He wasn't the only one, he has an older stepbrother, Galen who was a year older than him.
Galen is nine, he's a genius believe to come every five hundred years because he broke through he was able to break through and become a 1st level, human martial artist at the age of 8.
Although there hasn't been any progress in his essence cultivation, just breaking through to the level he's now was already considered the act of a true genius.
After Liam and Xavier have finished sparing, Liam made a decision to get stronger to defend himself next time when some random kid stand against him.
Thus, everyday when no one's around he would constantly start exercising.
Beforehand, he didn't see any usefulness of his mom, and now he still haven't change.
anything she isn't around only means one thing; that he will get enough time to study and exercise.
....
Time kept flying, now three years old, Liam can now handle a wooden sword and stand his ground against Xavier during their routine sparing section that took place every Wednesday and Friday.
Liam has grown taller, his body has also began to improve as well due to his secret trainings.
During this time, he repeated all the history books and encyclopedias.
As his body has become a tad bit stronger, he began to feel the origination of something in his stomach which he deduced that his dantian has began to form.
But it was unknown to him that it wasn't a dantian but a demon core.
On a faithful day, he took his bath by himself after exercising before approaching the book vault sneakily as he have always did.
He scanned through the last history book, and then he opened the first book which is about the real martial arts and cultivation, the others were basic theories while this book that he held "Hundred Earthly Stance" was a real one.
The moment he placed his hand on it, strong pain ignited in his head and a strange voice was heard.
["Finally, I've been awakened after waiting for ages."]
