The rise of the pervert primordial

While castle Kana was interestedly listening to Camila’s story about both Alice’s and Aster’s birth, Eris and Mylene exchanged gazes and noticed they were both confused about the same thing.

“Camila… are you sure there wasn’t any change in the sky when Aster was born?”.

“Mm?”, Camila made memory trying to remember if something happened that day, but besides the notice of the guards finding Isaac fainted in the forest after getting beaten up, nothing else was reported.

“When he was born the sky didn’t change… but if I remember correctly, it did it when it was his fifth birthday, the same with Alice, why?”.

Eris had a hard time believing that a monster like Aster didn’t cause a sky phenomenon when he “arrived” to the world and instead it only happened until he was five years old.

As if Mylene suddenly realized something she interrupted Camila’s story.

“Wait, at what age do you all normally start cultivating?”.

Camila wasn’t aware of Eris and Mylene’s background so she felt a bit weird listening to a common knowledge question but she still answered.

“At five years old like everyone, after going through the awakening ritual we breakthrough depending on our talent and other things”.

“What!”, both Eris and Mylene took a breath of cold air, in their past years they were never interested in the customs and culture of the natives of a mortal plane, so they didn’t know how cultivation worked for them.

What they knew about Aster was that Lilia had the best resources prepared for her children, so they thought it was just like back at their home where noble ladies ingested precious elixirs and pills to guarantee their offspring will born with an innate realm.

But now they got to know that people in this place didn’t cultivate during the first five years of their live which is honestly a waste, but that wasn’t the main point here, what really impressed them how much Aster changed in just eight years.

The key point here was that he was born a normal human and remained like that for five years and then everything changed, it was hard to imagine the magnitude of the event that could create the current monster they met, which cultivation realm had nothing to do with his battle prowess

“If he became so strong in eight years, how strong would he be when he is our age”, is the question that was repeating in their minds right now, although it was true that with each advance breaking through became harder, their ages were now in the hundreds of thousands.

While at the castle Eris and Mylene were rethinking the meaning of the word “genius”, at Ghaleria a black-haired youth accompanied by two beautiful women with similar characteristics was relaxedly walking through the streets.

They were of course Aster, Lilia and Alice, after a few minutes walking they reached the Ghale family grounds, the guards saw them and immediately opened the gates while respectfully bowing.

Alice couldn’t help but snort remembering how the first time they visited Aria’s family even the guards ignored them, but she didn’t say anything.

Since Aster announced the creation of a guardian force dedicated to the development of the Rodia star cluster, and declaring that Arthur would be the maximum authority the Ghale clan has been in a turmoil.

Representatives from other families along with loyal staff of the Ghale family were going from one side to the other, Ghaleria was going to become the main branch of the Terranova sect, so there was a lot of things that needed to be done.

Rune masters, spirit blacksmiths, alchemists and even merchants, everything needed to be arranged for the opening of the sect and the first wave of recruitment.

Aster nodded in recognition, Arthur was doing a good job, although he was nowhere to be seen, which probably meant he was being “mounted” by Nadia since it was still morning.

Ignoring everyone the three of them went straight to the sacred land of the Ghale family where Aria’s mother tomb was built, the first thing Aster saw was the slightly sad silhouette of a blue haired young girl.

Aria was sitting in a bench while she seemed to be talking alone, this was one of her favorite places because no one besides her father and her could enter, knowing this was probably the last time she could visit her mother for a while made her feel a bit sad.

Even Alice had a rare case of empathy and stayed silent, while her brother approached Aria.

Aster sat next to her and gently held her hand, while he wished to have the power to bring back to life the mother of his lover, he didn’t have that kind of power… for now, but there is a long path ahead of him, who knows maybe one day the heavens would have to obey his demands.

Aria leaned her head against Aster’s shoulder and just remained silent for a moment before saying.

“Mom, father has finally stopped blaming himself and I met someone wonderful who is willing to be at my side for the rest of my life, I hope you watch and protect us from the heaven”.

Aster caressed the back of Aria’s hand with his thumb, he took out a candle which was contained in a flower vase and lit it up before placing it in the floor a few centimeters away from the statue of Aina.

“Thanks for taking care of Aria all these years, please leave her to me”, he mumbled before sitting back with Aria.

From afar Lilia’s eye glowed for a second before she frowned, but after thinking about she simply shook her head and instead said.

“Darling, Alice and me will go to the commercial district to buy a couple of things before returning to the Wolfstein family, I’ll come pick you two up later, okay?”.

Aster didn’t have any problem with his mother and sister spending time together without him, but what confused him was that they will return to the Wolfstein castle before.

“Mom, you told Camila we will return in two hours so why are you returning before me?”, asked Aster.

Lilia chuckled as she rose one of her fingers.

“It’s because I have a rough idea of the conditions under which the body constitution of Camila works darling, yesterday she didn’t dine with us right?”.

Aster nodded so Lilia continued with her explanation.

“The previous day she practically spent the whole day with us and she didn’t have any problem, but the moment she separated from us then she goes out of control… it’s suspicious”.

“I once told you the rumors of the Wolfstein family lineage right… good fortune and amplification of innate traits”.

“The note at the back of the map said, you needed the help of someone of “Exquisite Resonating branch of the family”, so it’s obvious there were at least two branches in the original Wolfstein family”.

“Alice bloodline is strong not too far from mine… but you surpassed all the records to the point where your own body couldn’t resist it, so it’s obvious you were affected by the amplification property of the Wolfstein lineage, also the note at the back of the map was directed at you”.

“My theory is that Camila’s constitution is controlled when she is near you, there is probably a limit of how much time she can be separated without losing control, that’s the first thing I’m trying to confirm”.

She then rose a second finger to explain the second property she discerned.

“Then there is the thing about metallic things being attracted towards her each time she circulates her spirit energy, and that anxiety she had yesterday, if we interpret the “good fortune” rumor as finding treasures and the like, then she fits perfectly with the description”.

“I will buy some samples of a variety of minerals and other things that are considered valuable, so we can know if her ability is limited to metal things or not”.

Aster sighed, if what his mother said was true then Camila was basically a living treasure detector, which could be a useless or incredibly good skill, depending on the case.

“Karma my ass, that old bastard did this on purpose… this is getting really weird how can someone that lived and died countless of years ago could know I will meet Camila in this precise planet and age”, he thought referring to the Wolfstein ancestor.

Lilia smirked seeing her son’s uninterested expression.

“I either can try to help her control her ability after knowing if my suppositions were right, or she can come with us”.

Alice pouted at her mother.

“Great another rival on the list, don’t we have enough with Kana and the twins, there is also Eris and Mylene and now even someone from the Wolfstein which seems to be destined to be with Aster”, she mumbled.

Aster chuckled.

“Hey, why do you mention Eris and Mylene, our relationship is not going in that route you know?”.

“It’s not going in that route for now you mean”, said Alice while she softly snorted.

Even Aria agreed with her this time, with the pass of the years she saw many girls form the other cities they visited that were attracted like bees to the honey after seeing Aster once.

“You have the bad habit of making girls fall for you and we will be going to a place with a lot of girls from good families, I think the one who should use a veil isn’t us but you”, she said with a playful voice.

Aster was speechless, he once joked saying that at some point he will be surrounded by veiled beauties to avoid problems, and Aria just got back at him for that.

“Since when the cute and shy Aria I know is so vindictive”, he said before dragging Aria into his embrace.

“I learned from a certain someone”, she said as she stuck her tongue at him.
