Monday Morning on a mountain besides the city.
A person in a coroner clothing sit alone on his familiar bench waiting for sunrise under a cold windy sky.
Whooosh!woo!
'Mother I finally avenge you....'
'all the pain he give you I repayed it tenfold...I peeled off all of his skin and let him be Eaten by wildlife'
I said to myself as I look as my hands which was once clear are now tainted with blood..
'He killed you so I killed him.... I'm not wrong and he deserves all of this...you won't blame me right?..
I said while looking below, the wind in this height is too cold...too lonely..
'I should be happy but why do I feel empty and the feeling of getting revenge isn't as pleasant as I thought it was. I thought I can finally be happy....I smiled bitterly as I think about what happened..
.....
Hours before..
Inside a dark forest surrounded by eerie howl of predator a silhouette of a human stand with some liquid falling to the ground coming from his hands
Before him lay a vague outline of something human without a skin with squirming wildlife coming in and out of the flesh.
'I..curse you....fuck..r....an..d..you..r...mo..
A small voice come from it.
Creak!
Splash!
His words end before it can harm the world..
'If cursing brings retribution you would already be dead before I can find you...' I sneered as I hang the body into a tree branch.
The silhouette linger for a while before disappearing into deep darkness hidden by trees.
.....
.....
'All of those sleepless nights for this?...No... It's not a waste since I've avenge you.But What now? I'm so confused and I don't know what to do anymore..
I massage my hands and exhale
'What'd gone wrong?? Now that I think about it whether he died or not doesn't really matter it can't bring you back...
A feel a heat in my eyes as I look up
I see.
A single strand of light interrupted my thoughts and against the odds it ease my feeling.
The sky on the horizon is lighting up.
Looking ahead the darkness is pierce by the morning sun.
Dawn has arrive.
Chirp!chirp!
Birds chirped, a joyful chorus that felt strangely out of place.
As I stare into the light I seem to see happiness pulling me towards life I've desire.
'It's time for me to live for myself and myself only' I smiled as I felt a new purpose in life
'So this is what they mean by as long as you live then life isn't over'
sorry mother but I can't continue to be sad forever.
'And if you are still alive I think you would love to see me be happy right??'
I stood up and walk forward with hand grasping the light It was so warm,so passionate in contrast to myself as I found myself intoxicated.
I forgot that before me is a cliff when I woke up in the wind I realize I was falling.
Swish!
Woo!
The ground is getting closer but all of my attention was on the way the sunlight fall on earth and birds unrestrained flight on the sky.
'They are so free and unhurried ' I thought as tears forms on my eyes.
'I wish if there is a next life I can live a life for myself!!!'
My final screams as the ground reclaim me reds flying everywhere.
.....
The next day a hiker found the body and called the police..
.....
The hiker's trembling voice echoed across the mountain as he spoke into his phone. "Yes, I found a body at the base of Eagle's Cliff. Male, early twenties... looks like he fell."
Detective Sarah Chen arrived at the scene two hours later, her coffee growing cold as she stared down at the broken form below. The coroner's clothing was unmistakable—the same outfit described by witnesses near the Morrison villa.
"Any identification?" she asked the medical examiner.
"Rowan Hayes. Twenty-three years old." The examiner paused, consulting his notes. "His mother was one of Morrison's victims three weeks ago."
Chen closed her eyes. The cycle was complete, but there was no satisfaction in it. Two monsters were dead, but so was an innocent woman and now her son—a young man who'd let grief transform him into something unrecognizable.
As the body was loaded into the ambulance, Chen noticed something clutched in the victim's hand. A small, weathered photograph of a woman making breakfast, smiling at whoever held the camera.
"What a waste," she murmured to the morning wind.
The case files would be marked closed. The media would call it justice served. But Chen knew better. In the end, there were no winners—only the mountain's eternal silence and the birds that continued their careless flight above, indifferent to the human tragedy below.
The city was safe again, but at a cost no one should have had to pay.
...
"Look…"
"Congratulations…"
"Long live Duke…"
"…Cute…"
"…Triplets…"
The distant murmurs of unfamiliar voices filtered into his nascent consciousness. Why can't I open my eyes? A strangled sound escaped him, not a word, but the indignant cry of a baby. What's happening? Am I insane? His wail seemed to be a signal, for soon two other infant voices joined the chorus, equally indignant.
After a while, a warm hand gently lifted him. He still couldn't comprehend what was happening, but a deep voice rumbled close by. "Caelan Valeblacn, Thorne Valeblacn, and Lucien Valeblacn… The future of this family."
That night, the entire city celebrated, a joyous cacophony that left him wide awake, listening to the strange new world.
...
6 years later ...
'Mom!mom!..'
Ahhh!
'Catch you now!'
Two young boy with silver and black hair is catching a colorful butterfly in a expensive garden.
Their laughter, light and uninhibited, danced on the gentle breeze.
'Careful ok...'
A graceful woman with peaceful temperent sit on a bench under a lush trees with flowery vines.
"seraphine elaris valeblacn"
My mother in this life.
(Yes you guess it right this boy right here is our protagonist he was reborn as a baby in fantasy world.)
Another young boy with black hair was looking towards them while playing with a exotic bug under an old tree.
'This bug is really interesting'
I thought while turning it upside down..
'It emits light when provoke I just can't figure out its purpose '
Creak!
Just then a butler enter the garden.
"Madam it's dinner time"
'I see..Caelan! Thorne! Lucien! It's dinner time enough of playing.
'Ok mom..:
'I still want to play tho'
Protested the black haired one
his lower lip jutting out.
'You can still came back here after dinner'
Seraphine said calmly.
Mmm! I still want to play!...
"Your father will be quite displeased if you're late." After a gentle, persuasive game of tag and pull, she finally convinced the reluctant child to head indoors for their meal.
On their way to the dining hall, servants and even magical creatures, their forms shimmering with faint light, paused and bowed respectfully as the small group passed.
' Greetings madam'
'Good morning your Highness.'
'A nice day young master'
Said by a talking cat
perched on a nearby wall.
Umm.. I replied while my brother grumbled on the side.
'just a little closer and I would have caught it!'
"Hmm, perhaps the butterfly was simply playing with you," I mused, a faint smile touching my lips.
Just when Thorne want to argue a commosion started .
'It's the princess!'
'wow..'
'Its my first time seeing the Princess in person'
'me too'..
Servants and guards whispered excitedly in low tones, their usual decorum momentarily forgotten.after all the chance of seeing the princess in person is like winning a lottery only in important events will You see a glimpse some may never met her in a lifetime.
"Greetings, Your Highness," Seraphine said, her expression composed, though a subtle frown flickered across her brow. Why wasn't I informed of this visit? she thought, quickly suppressing the thought and maintaining her serene smile as she conversed with the unexpected guest.
'so she's the princess?' Thorne ask mesmerized by her beauty
'yeah'
I replied as I observe her
She was around our age with golden long hair in luxurious dress,blue eyes,her face was fair and her steps was graceful and confident while talking to our mother.
'what a confidence if it were me I'd be a stuttering mess' I thought as me and my brother approach.
'Good morning your Highness'
'nice to meet you your Highness'
I said as she turns around to face us.
''Wow.."
''wow.."
I turn around and saw Caelan and Thorne eyes widen in shock...
"Embarrassing how can you show your pathetic side like that in the first meeting"
I exclaimed inwardly while shaking my head.
Not that I can blame them tho..
.. who wouldn't be like this in the face of beauty face to face fortunately I can control myself I thought that those rumors of beauty bringing disaster to the country is false but now reality slap me in the face for my narrow vision..
This face can't be said to be perfect it can Only be peak!
I observed her again, now up close. Her eyelashes were long and dark, framing those stunning blue eyes. Her nose was small and perfectly sculpted, her lips thin and exquisitely shaped—a beauty truly unlike any other I had ever witnessed.
Up close we can clearly smell her natural scent a smell of jasmine but something more fragrant and pleasant in her scent my mind became at ease..
"It's our first meeting " she said, her voice clear and melodious. "I'm Lysaria Sovereign." She extended her hand, first to Caelan. "And you must be Master Caelan." Then to Thorne, "And Master Thorne." Finally, to Lucien "And you are Master Lucien?"
"Yes" I replied
"Yes! I'm caelan valeblacn it's a pleasure to meet you! and your Highness don't have to call me master just caelan"
My white haired brother introduction himself excitedly.
"Although you already know me I still have to introduce myself I'm Thorne valeblacn The Strongest.and same as him you don't have to call me master it's too unfamiliar.
My black haired brother introduce himself in deep voice pretending to be majestic.
'I'm Lucien Valeblacn if your Highness has any requests you can come to me..'
I said calmly.
Of course I won't really grant any of her request at most those trivial matter.
As for why I did this nothing else just Lookism.
...
Just as our mother, Seraphine, was about to inquire about the unexpected visit, a distinguished woman with silver hair pulled back in a severe bun stepped forward from behind the princess. Her attire was richly embroidered, speaking of both status and formality.
"Duchess Seraphine," the woman began, her voice crisp and precise, "my apologies for this unannounced visit. I am Lady Eleonora, Princess Lysaria's tutor and advisor." She offered a shallow bow, her gaze steady. "We are currently conducting a royal tour of the ducal estates, and it was the Princess's particular wish to observe the children of the various noble houses."
Princess Lysaria nodded, a small, polite smile gracing her lips. "Indeed. But more importantly, Lady Eleonora and I have a proposition we wished to discuss with you, Duchess. It concerns a new initiative for language education."
Seraphine's smile remained fixed, though a flicker of surprise crossed her eyes. "Language education? Please, come and sit. We were just heading in for dinner, but I'm sure we can find a quiet space for us to speak." She gestured towards a shaded area with more comfortable seating, a subtle command to the nearby servants to prepare refreshments.
"Thank you, Duchess," Lady Eleonora replied, a slight incline of her head. "As you know, Aurelia our home is a vast supernatural kingdom, where Veins of Origin—mystical energies inherited through the soul—bestow ancient powers. These bloodlines, often tied to elemental or metaphysical forces, are our legacy and our strength."
She paused, her gaze sweeping over us before returning to Seraphine. "Recently, a groundbreaking discovery was made by one of our kingdom's foremost researchers: a unique ancient language. This language, unlike any other, holds the key to directly harnessing and manipulating the power of the elements. More than that, it can significantly enhance the physical body, pushing the limits of even our most potent bloodlines."
My ears perked up. Enhance the body? Even in this world where people naturally grew stronger with each 'realm' or stage of their power, the idea of further enhancement was intriguing. This wasn't just about communication; it was about raw power.
"This is not merely about basic literacy, Duchess," Princess Lysaria added, her voice gaining a quiet intensity. "This language offers a profound advancement for our noble families, strengthening our Veins of Origin and ultimately, the kingdom itself. We are establishing a new preparatory academy to instruct the children of our most prominent houses in its intricacies. This instruction will occur before they begin their more formal magical or political studies."
As Lady Eleonora spoke, Princess Lysaria's gaze lingered on us, her blue eyes assessing each of the triplets in turn. My brothers, Caelan and Thorne, were still somewhat awestruck, their initial embarrassment now replaced by a wide-eyed curiosity. I, on the other hand, felt a peculiar sense of being scrutinized, as if she were searching for something specific in my gaze.
"This girl what's her deal? Don't stare at me damn! This is really getting me on edge "
even though I complain inside outside I still have that calm expression. (I was delusional)
My brothers, Caelan and Thorne, who thought that the Princess were looking at them were quick to react.
Thorne, puffed out his chest, trying to appear taller and braver than his six years. "Your Highness," he declared, his voice a little too loud, "I can protect you! I'm very strong!" He flexed a tiny bicep, barely visible beneath his sleeve.
"She won't be in any danger even this land collapse" I exclaimed inwardly
Caelan, stepped forward with a solemn nod. "And I can solve any problem, Your Highness! If you ever need help, I'll be reliable!" He gestured vaguely to the garden around them, as if to say he was capable of managing even the most complex affairs.
"You look like a simp but it's ok if you are my brother" I thought secretly.
Princess Lysaria watched this display with wide, sapphire eyes. A tiny bubble of laughter escaped her lips, a bright, bell-like sound that she immediately tried to suppress, her small hand flying to cover her mouth.
Her gaze flitted between the two earnest boys, a genuine spark of amusement dancing within those blue depths. Her head tilt while listening to their declaration
After a while She turned her attention back to their mother, her composure unbroken.
"They are... spirited young men, Duchess." Princess lysaria said talking like an adult.
There was a delicate pause, and he couldn't help but feel her eyes brush over him for a fraction longer than his brothers, a flicker of something unreadable in their depths before she look back towards my mother
"Of course they're my child after all"
Seraphine smile proudly
After that Lady Eleonora and my mother chat while drinking tea,
also waiting for my father.
(Don't have expectations the princess only look at him longer cause he was calm and not handsome like his brother)
(The MC has a little above average appearance No special features except his fair skin and the tallest among brother)
