A beautiful child could be seen sitting on the floor of the palace's library. His face that was full of focus was strange yet charming in its own way. His messy dark violet hair covered his odd coloured eyes as he read over a book about the world. This was Amadeus Drakos

'The world is larger than I imagined'

This world was known as...o...b..s and was about twice as large than his previous one. Currently he was in the Drakonis Empire and was the crown prince to boot. The world was composed of one large continent with the Drakonis Empire being stationed in the East. It was currently the largest and most powerful nation across the lands taking up a quarter of the continent.

South of them was the Formosa forest. It was a piece of land that was only about the size of a quarter of the Drakonis Kingdom, around a tenth of the continent. It housed two nations, one of a reclusive and beautiful race known as Elves and the other housed by demi-humans. The forest also consisted of fairies, pixies, dryads and the lot. The forest took up most of their territory, so trees were the norm. While the elves lived deep into the forest with their nation being called the Elven Kingdom, the demi-humans lived on the outskirt where half their territory was outside the forest. Their nation was known as the Bestia Kingdom.

'Wouldn't mind taking a trip there'

To the North of them was a chain of mountains known as the Mountains of Ferrarius that took up a fifth of the continent housing a race known as Dwarves. It was majorly inhabited by them alongside other monsters as they mainly lived underground and in caves. They had a city where they trade with other nations unlike Formosa Forest.

'They've been said to tremendous blacksmiths'

West and South West of the Drakonis Empire were two kingdoms. The Huma.n.u.s kingdom in the south while the Daemon Kingdom to the North. The human kingdom was mainly housed by Humans while the Daemon Kingdom was housed by beings of 'evil', courtesy of the humans. These beings were mainly dictated by the seven sins and had races like vampires, werewolves, succubus and many more. They were both around the size of a tenth of the continent alongside the Bestia kingdom. The Elven Kingdom was by far the smallest one.

'Humans? Most likely they were the ones that summoned the cla.s.s. Is it for the war against the Daemon kingdom? Or is it against us? Or for something in the future?'

Amadeus stopped thinking and continued reading.

Further than that, it was all unexplored lands filled with tiny motes of civilisations here and there. Things like dungeons were spread across the continent where it contained an equal amount of danger and opportunity. Although some were regulated and watched over, there were still some hidden ones here and there.

"Your highness, I knew you were here"

Suddenly the door barged open and a cat girl stepped in. It was Erika, his personal maid. In these two years her young body had grown quite a bit as she was now 14 years old.

"His highness has returned from the front lines"

"Father has?"

His father was rarely home and would come by every couple months. However, due to increase in tension between the countries, he was on the front lines himself for the past year.

Getting up he dashed out the room and quickly ran towards the Emerald Palace.

A normal human baby would crawl at the age of six to 12 months or go straight to walking. At the age of two they would be able to barely speak. This sort of common sense was thrown out by Amadeus. He went straight to walking at three months and was able to speak coherently, albeit childishly by six months. By the age of 1 he had the strength of a 10-year-old and by 2 he had the strength of a grown man. This may seem absurdly, stupidly unbelievable however this was the cause of his heritage and bloodline.

Dragons.

The royal family of the Drakonis Empire were dragons. His father was a golden dragon while his mother was a descendant of a fire and ice dragon. A rare mutation occurred allowing her to use two opposing elements. Amadeus still needed to awaken his bloodline, so he never knew what his bloodline was but remembering the scene when he was just a foetus, it was definitely something different.

However, only the royal family were pure dragons. Its citizens were among the various races of the world. Things like slavery and the rest were all forbidden within the empire, all the citizens were equal. Amadeus didn't find this strange; dragons were amongst the most powerful creatures in the world, what difference would different types of ants make, they were ants in the end.

Rus.h.i.+ng through the corridors, he entered a small room. His mother was already there, and she ushered him over.

"Come here, my little dragon"

Amadeus seeing her ran over and jumped in her arms. They were next to the throne room and were waiting for Baldrik to finish up.

It didn't take long for him to finish as walked through the doors. He visibly fatigued as he looked at his family with a smile.

Amadeus, who didn't notice it, ran to him and jumped up.

"Papa!"

'Have to act the part, have to act the part…'

"Hey hey…oof"

Not expecting the sudden jump, Amadeus went head in and hit Baldrik's solar plexus effectively knocking him out.

"Husband!"

Lily was shocked as she ran up only to see Baldrik's blissful smile as he got some well-deserved rest. Giving a rub on his head, she gave Baldrik a lap pillow before berating Amadeus for his recklessness, but Amadeus knew that she didn't really care.

It was a while before Baldrik woke up only to feel a soft sensation behind his head. He knew it was wife, but before he could say anything a small head covered his vision.

"Papa's awake"

"I know"

Lily replied before looking at Baldrik

"Welcome home"

Baldrik smiled slightly as he replied

"I'm back"

By the time they left it was already dusk and made their way to the dining hall.

It wasn't an extravagant banquet within an enormous room, it was a small room with a dining table, three chairs and no servants. Lily herself had made the food and wanted them to just have some time together, not as royals but as a family. One by one, sumptuous dishes were placed on the table and Amadeus couldn't hold back.

Stretching his hand out he grabbed a leg of some sort and started feasting on it. If it was any other day then he would definitely be reprimanded by Lily for not following etiquette but today he was let off with a light tap on the head.

While eating Baldrik started talking,

"So, Amadeus, how's studying"

"Ok"

"Ok?"

"He drove out another tutor"

"Another Tutor?"

Being absent for the past year, Baldrik didn't know the ins and outs yet. Before Lily could continue Amadeus spoke out,

"Father, they can't teach me much, it's too easy. I want to train"

Before Baldrik could speak, Lily spoke

"No, you can't! You are still young. Training can wait until you awaken."

"But muuuum"

Amadeus used puppy eyes; it was ineffective. He could see Lily's struggle, but motherly love overcame it and a firm determination swept through her eyes. Baldrik who saw this didn't know what to say, he saw his son's pout and his wife's fragile yet firm hand.

'Father was right, a dragon mother is really scary'

Suddenly, Baldrik came up with an idea.

"I could train him"

"Huh?"

"Eh?"

"Hahaha, thanks papa"

Amadeus jumped off his chair and hugged his father. Lily who saw this turned to her husband, with eyes ready to spit out fire.

"Baldrik, what's the meaning of this?"

"Ma, ma. I'll be training him. It will only be lightwork, not too much. Only until he awakens his bloodline and get his status checked. Also, I can spend some time with him."

Hearing this, Lily calmed down but still gave Baldrik a stern glare while Amadeus acted confused

"St-statoos?"

'This world has statuses"

"Status son. It gives a brief overview of your strength such as strength, agility and the lot"

"oh"

"When will this Status be checked"

"On your 8th birthday, it will also be the day when you have your bloodline awakened"

Amadeus thought that it was natural process to have your bloodline awakened. It seemed that a special process was needed, and your bloodline had to be stimulated. His father didn't tell him about the details, but it looked like it would be a difficult trial. Each race had a different awakening ceremony and apparently, the words of his father, it wasn't something the other races could compare to. The humans had their baptism while the demons had something related to their individual sins.

While trying to avoid his wife's gaze, he told Amadeus

"Be ready early tomorrow, you will need to get up early tomorrow"
