Arthur ran back home after school with a smile on his face. He wondered how his mother was doing.

Running past a variety of houses of different designs and sizes, Arthur leaped across the iron fence around his house. He jumped into the lawn, and dashed towards the door.

"Mom, I'm home!" Arthur pushed open the cyan door which was left unlocked with a smile, greeted by the serene sight of a tidy and clean room.

Sitting on the sofa was a tall slender woman wearing a long loose-fitting garment. Hearing the familiar voice, the blue-eyed woman turned her head to gaze at the newcomer.

"Arthur? You little brat, your dinner is right in the kitchen. You can go eat right after changing into something casual. Don't believe that uniform into the kitchen."

Arthur smiled warmly as he nodded his head in acknowledgment, before dashing up the stairs to his room.

That was his mother in this reality, Celicia. She was a war lady at Rank A, her prowess was beyond the comprehension of Arthur who was just at Rank C and haven't even evolved once.

A sickness had disturbed her for years, suppressing her strength to remain at the E rank for almost half of Arthur's life in this body.

It was only last year she fully recovered, surprising Arthur with her exponential strength when she beat up a B Ranked warlord who tried to harm Arthur.

Arthur who had dashed into his room first slammed the door shut and then dropped down to his bed.

Closing his eyes he began to sort out his thoughts and memories.

[Brain Undergoing Mental Cultivation - Mind will increase by 10% if successful!]

[Reminiscence Successful - Mind +0.5]

Arthur ignored the rapid beeping sounds in his head as he entered a serene state of mental temperament. Although he had been carrying this out for years, his mental growth was meager compared to his intellectual improvements.

After ten minutes of remaining in his half-asleep state, Arthur's eyes opened as he willed all the notifications to close.

Lifting himself off the bed, Arthur dragged his weak body up to the bathroom. Taking off his uniform, Arthur slipped into the shower to get himself washed up.

About ten minutes later, Arthur pushed open the door and stepped out of his bathroom. His body was slightly wet after the bath, his hair was glued to his forehead. Wrapped around his lower half was a wet grey towel.

Arthur who was half naked revealed his compacted and tough muscular frame that would make even an Olympics champion gasp in shock. His stunning masculine features and calm temperament earned him the title - of Ice Steel Dragon Prince - in school.

Not only was he exceptionally stunning and well-cultured, but he was also courageous. Unlike most people like him, Arthur was also merciless.

He was feared and revered by all freshmen and seniors alike, his tyrannical nature made him the school's genius although he wasn't necessarily the strongest.

Arthur who was still half-naked slumped back down to the bed with a weary expression on his face.

——

Lilith who sat in the back seat of a speeding blue car had a vacant expression on her face as she peered out of the window.

Outside the car were thousands of people walking up and down, numerous buildings of various designs stood tall, and strange creatures roamed the street. This painted a very lively scene of Servarna, the human continent. The hub of the vast world of advanced fantasy - paradise.

A strange aura seemed to be circling her body as she shut her eyes slowly. As soon as her eyes were shut, an explosion of aura occurred, and pain followed– a heart-wrenching pain.

Lilith closed her eyes as her fingers gripped the edges of her skirt. She was in pain and was trying to bear it with difficulty.

Since it wasn't a pain that others could help her with, she could only grit her teeth and tolerate it. Lilith bit back a sharp cry as her brows furrowed.

"Miss Lilith? Are you sure you don't want an elixir? Not only would it ease the pain, but it would also help you break past the bottleneck. It is a–"

"I don't want an elixir. Keep on driving and mind your business." Lilith coldly opened her mouth and interrupted the driver who was advertising something she would never want to take to her. It was beyond irritating.

An Elixir was powerful, yes. It was so powerful that it could restore a person from a near-death state back to top performance in a blink. It was even said in rumours that an elixir made by the greatest alchemist was able to overturn human belief and do the impossible:

Lifting the dead and bringing them back to life, but although it couldn't help people who were dead for a very long time, it was still a wondrous item.

Still, Lilith had her pride as the daughter of a Storm Dragon. She believes only the weak and worthless would want to take such a shaming and degrading path of using external forces to grow stronger.

Why Lilith was feeling this kind of pain in her head was simply too frustrating. She had reached the requirements for evolution but had faced a restriction due to inadequate mental power

Sadly meeting a bottleneck in her evolution. One she cannot overcome easily.

Her entire family excluding her father had been pressuring her to take an elixir to break the bottleneck, but Lilith refused without even thinking much.

She would break the bottleneck herself, she would follow the path of her father's whole broke through due to the simulation of his latent potential through combat.

With her hands balled into fists after being released from her skirt, she suppressed the pain and stopped probing further. Battle- Battling is the only way!

——

Farming- farming is the only way!

Arthur who was busy chewing on the fat lap of a fried chicken thought to himself with a smile. After ascending beyond the heavens, and acquiring the strength of a Dark Void Sovereign, Arthur decided to settle down and become a farmer.

He would marry three wives and birth at least six children. He would have farmlands d as large as estates with countless laborers working under him… peace and serenity after chaos.

"Ah I just remembered something important Arthur… we have to talk about it or else this family faces extinction," Celicia said as she dropped her spoon beside her licked-clean plate, then gazed into the eyes of her son as if she was about to say something earth quaking.

"What is it, mom? Don't ask me about my virginity again… or I'll run away to visit Grandpa." Arthur smiled warmly as he dropped his half-eaten fried lap of chicken, then looked back into his mother's eyes. Picking up a glass of water, Arthur's body trembled.

Cruel and naggy, it was really difficult living with a single mother… especially one who has such an open mind and powerful soul. Only one good word from her is enough to make Arthur ask himself how much of a man he is.

His mother always hurls over uncomforting questions like:

'Heya you runt, what's your status? Did you grow half an inch? No wonder you're full of smiles.'

'You got her number? Score! Ask her when she'll come over.'

'Young lad, what cave did you venture into today?'

Arthur, had the thought one day of asking his mother why in the world did she want to know his size? But was scared into silence after receiving the 'Stern Warlady's treatment.

"Kid, you know that we in our family have no other males except you, and you've reached the legal age to get a mate. I wanted to ask when would you bring me a cute girl for dinner. Not just one, but five- no six!"

Hearing this, Arthur spilled out all the water in his mouth and his jaw dropped soon after. If he thought he was perverted for having fantasies of a harem consisting of three beautiful ladies, then, his mother was….

Oh my God.

Six? For real? But, it's not a bad idea though… I could actually... Ahem!

    Mylos clung unto the walls of a tall building, gazing past the massive fence to view the plethora of houses before him. With his demonic vision, he was able to see objects metres away as if they were just an inch away from him. "Just a few hunters patrolling by that alley to the west. I should be able to avoid them if I'm careful. What I need now is a place to stay the night." Mylos spoke softly with his head bowed in thought, and brows knitted. In his bag, he had some “credits” which humans deemed useful for transactions. He calculated having enough for more than a few months of rent, but decided on paying for just a few nights since he would be mobile. "I can also last some weeks more without any food, but I'll be forced to find a meal if I get too weak from these hunger pangs." Mylos frowned, then he shook his head and clenched his right fist, "Let me get away from here." As soon as Mylos clenched his fingers digging into the wall into a fist, he crushed a part of the wall

    A young boy ran briskly through a forest with a frown on his extremely handsome face. He was wearing a plain black hoodie with the hood pulled over his head to cover his hair. Strapped to the side of waist was a sword still in it's sheath. Everytime the boy's feet landed on the ground, he would appear metres away in the distance like a phantom without even leaving an afterimage. It was as if he was using a strange version of teleportation. Chasing after him was a blue haired girl on a bike were a crop top and a short shirt. A large claymore was strapped to her back, but it wasn't sheathed, boldly displaying it's blade. The dark grey blade of the claymore which was riddled with glowing green runes gave off an intimidating and dangerous vibe to whoever set their eyes on it. From the size alone, one could only imagine how powerful the wielder must be to have the ability to use it in a battle. The forest today was exceptionally quiet except for some tweets from the scarce birds f

    "Sit." Mylos blinked, then sat down on the chair facing that of his father. He stared into the man's eyes, his brows were furrowed and shoulders tense. He seemed anxious, but did not give himself away with any strange action. "Father, I—" The Chaos Eminence waved his hand, causing Mylos to shut his mouth and look away. After he had given his son the signal to shut his mouth, the Chaos Eminence drops his hand and laid it upon the table between them. "Don't bother yourself…" The Chaos Eminence sighed as he closed his eyes and laid back in his seat, "A large number of them had attacked the building you told me you would hide in. I guess, that was a very smart move." "No father. This has gotten to something beyond what I am able to handle." Mylos cut in after listening to all his father had to say, his brows still furrowed as he was still in deep thoughts, "I believe you know what I saw there." The Chaos Eminence smiled warmly as he picked up a glass cup filled with water and
