Kapitel 9: World and family

After a while, Grace and Victoria told him about what kind of world they lived in, how people behaved to different situations and their family's general situation.

He digested everything and was relieved by the fact that this world was a typical cultivation world where only powerful were respected and the sects and powerful families ruled over it.

Every power was graded into different levels, from 1 to 9. Their family—the dragonheart family—was a Grade 8 power because they had two sky realm cultivators—one being the patriarch and his father and the other one the family's ancestor.

Similarly, the Rosewood family was also a Grade 8 power but was slightly weaker than their family since they only had a single sky realm cultivator.

People start their cultivation journey at a young age and by the 14 years of age, almost everyone has become a cultivator, some talented ones going beyond the first cultivation realm—the skin tempering realm.

His sister, Victoria, had started cultivating when she was just 7 years old. When she turned 14 years old, she had already stepped foot into the second cultivation realm—the bone tempering realm—and now at the age of 16; she was in the third realm—the marrow cleansing realm.

Because of her talent, she had entered one of the top sects in their province—The Violent Thunder sect, a grade seven sect.

His mother, Grace, was a little stronger than Victoria and was in the fourth cultivation realm—the tendon transformation realm.

After tendon transformation realm was the blood infusion realm. These five initial realms were called the mortal realms because although cultivators in these realms would be a lot stronger than ordinary people but they still hadn't exceeded the mortal capabilities.

After the mortal realm was the sky realm, which he needed to reach within a month—an almost impossible task.

Noticing his worried expression, Victoria asked, "What it is, big brother? Why do you look worried?"

Arthur took a deep breath and said, "I realised how weak I am."

"You don't have to worry, big brother. We'll protect you." Victoria said and Grace also nodded while feeling sad for him.

Arthur smiled. "I know you would. But I also need to cultivate and become stronger. Maybe I'll be the one to protect you in the future."

Both ladies smiled sadly when they heard this. They exchanged glances before Grace said, "Arthur, son, you can't cultivate."

"No, I can, mother." Arthur smiled at her.

"No. You can't. You don't have any talent for cultivation. That's why you still haven't—"

Arthur sighed, interrupting her, he said, "Mother, you don't understand. I understand I wasn't able to cultivate previously but now I can. There is already some Spirit Qi in my body right now."

"Son, I understand how you must feel, but you can't really—wait! Did you say you have Spirit Qi in your body?" Grace jumped to her feet in shock when she realised what he said.

Victoria was the same. She remained stunned for a while before grabbing his hand in a hurry. She then closed her eyes and a moment later, her eyes widened in surprise.

"B-Big brother… y-you really have spirit qi inside you."

"Of course. Did you think I was lying?" Arthur smiled.

"I-Is that true, Vic?" His mother asked in disbelief, her generous chest heaving up and down because of her excited breathing.

Victoria looked at her mother with a joyous smile and nodded, "Yes, mother. Come check it."

Grace nodded and with trembling hands, she touched him before closing her eyes while praying, 'Please, don't let it be their illusion. Please.'

Then, as she focused her senses on his body, she also sensed the small amount of spirit qi inside him.

Whoosh!

She suddenly hugged him, and tears streamed down her face.

"It's true. It's true. My son can cultivate now." She sobbed. Arthur could feel her happiness and relief. He also wrapped his hands around her, but he then became conscious of her soft and pleasant-smelling body.

Thump!

His heart raced and his hands that were on her upper back slowly slid down to her thin and very huggable waist. He had to use all his willpower to stop his hands from becoming naughty and feeling her up.

Still… he couldn't stop himself from hugging her tightly, which resulted in her mounds of soft flesh pressing into his chest more.

Although he had felt her softness when she hugged him outside the Dragonheart family's gates, he couldn't properly savour the feeling because he was busy worrying about her becoming suspicious, etc.

But now… he could properly feel them and god, how awesome did they feel.

As the excitement of hugging such a beautiful woman coursed through his body, his junior showed signs of waking up from its slumber, which caused him to panic. Hurriedly, he loosened his hold on her waist and reprimanded himself.

'Damn it, Arthur. She is your 'mother'. Stop having these indecent thoughts.'

'Fortunately, she didn't notice.' He sighed in relief.

Grace cried for a while before she moved back. Looking into his eyes, she asked, "Arthur, how… how did it happen?"

He shrugged, "I don't know, mother. I also noticed it while talking to you guys." After saying this, he wore a confused expression and asked, "Did I really not have any spirit qi before?"

Victoria chimed in, her eyes were also moist, "Yes, big brother. You didn't have any, nor could you feel it, making you incapable of cultivation."

Saying this, she smiled, "But now that you have spirit qi and since you could feel it inside you, you can cultivate. Hmph! I'll see if father can still remain indifferent to your existence after you—"

"That's enough, Vic." Grace shouted, not letting her continue. She didn't want to hurt her son's feelings.

Victoria glanced at Arthur and stopped.

Arthur smiled and shook his head. From their conversation earlier—even though they didn't tell me explicitly—he already knew he wasn't treated kindly by his family or his father because he couldn't cultivate and was a… trash.

Because he was disappointed with him, he stopped visiting Grace too and would spend his free time with his other wives. This obviously saddened her a lot.

'It's better this way. I won't feel any guilt toward him when I… fuck, stop it. Don't think such things.' Arthur sighed. His horny self was constantly emerging and messing with his mind.

However, when he looked at her, he couldn't help himself. She was just too beautiful.

"Okay, mother, Vic. I'll go and rest now. Good night." He said, standing up.

Since his thoughts had started to go out of his control, it would be best if returned to his room. Besides, he needed to log out and return to his real body. Both lives were equally important, even though this one here was more fun and exciting.

Grace nodded. "Yes, you should rest. I'll take you to the family's library tomorrow to pick cultivation arts for you."

"Alright." Arthur nodded and returned to his room.

Lying on the comfortable bed, he prepared to log out when,

Knock! Knock!

Someone knocked on the door.

He frowned and asked. "Who is it?"

"It's me, big brother." Vic's sweet voice sounded out from outside.

"Alright. Coming." He said, getting out of the bed.

When he opened the door, he saw her standing there, hugging a pillow. She was wearing a loose, blue nighty, and looked very pretty in it.

"What is it, Vic?" He asked,

"Big brother, can I sleep with you?"
