Bab 2: Memories. Kaius Family

Three days have passed since I was born.

And in these three days, I mostly slept all day, only eating when I was hungry.

The most important thing was that I kept having strange dreams every time I slept.

In these dreams, I was Samiel. And I feel like him after every dream...

And on the second day, I found out that these dreams are not just dreams but memories of Samiel.

They continued for a week, I would sometimes wake up as those dreams were painful and sad to watch. However, with these dreams, my vague memories were completed. Now I knew what to do...

Even so, I feel like a crucial part of my memories was erased from my memory. Moreover, I only recovered my memories until the day I graduated from the academy...

From that time on I don't know anything... As there was no me from that day...

That painful day... Let's not remember that right now. First I need to recall everything about my family...

______ ____ __ __ _ _

In summary, I am the second son of the Kaius Family's current head.

From my memories, I know the Kaius Family is a noble family, they are famous throughout the world for their heroic deeds and benevolence. There is so much to tell about them but I will have to stop here.

First, my father. He is the current head of the Kaius family. His name is Kaius Solon. A fun thing is he is also a powerful businessman in the Building and Construction Business. He is the owner of the most popular Building Company on the continent which is "The Kaius Corporation".

If I remember correctly he is also a powerful [S] Rank Hero, known as "The Savior Solon". Surprisingly, he only works as a businessman after his actual work. Business is just a hobby for him.

And my mother is a powerful healer, her name is Kaius Nazia. She is also known throughout the continent. The people gave her a title after her heroic work in The BorderLines. She is also a very beautiful lady, I think her charm and beauty could rival any beauty, be it a princess or Queen or even the Empress.

The title given to her was "Holy Healer Nazia", which suits her perfectly. She is now a [A+] Rank Hero. But since her talent is at [SS] grade, the current highest grade in the world, just like my father's, she can become a Monarch in time.

I have a brother who is three years older than me. His name is Somir. He was the heir to the family in my memories and I wasn't against it as well as supported him based on them.

I will have a little sister in the future. Yeah, a little sister! And her name should be Safie. She was such a cutie back then...

Cough...

So, I will have two siblings in total.

All in all, I, Samiel had and have a loving, caring family. Moreover, our family has a unique motto that was passed down by our ancestors.

"In unity's embrace, we safeguard serenity for eternity."

And our family has lived up to their words, always protecting the world and its peace, and honoring our ancestors' will.

I will also try to live my life with this motto since I love peace.

The seventh day after Samiel was born.

In his room.

"Dear! Look at our son, he is finally sleeping peacefully. How cute!"

A woman around 25 years old was standing while carrying Samiel. She was his mother, Nazia.

She was reassured that her baby was able to sleep peacefully. She was concerned because the baby would always sleep but suddenly would wake up and start crying loudly.

It was as if he was having nightmares. This continued for a whole week which worried the couple. Fortunately, the baby could sleep peacefully now and even woke up once without crying. (A/N: The Monarch doesn't like to talk about his crying, so he didn't mention it in the paragraph above (^~^)).

"Yeah, and he looks just like you!"

A firm but gentle voice responded to her. It was his father's voice. He was also concerned about the baby's condition. He also worried about his wife's health too, after all, she had given birth a few days ago. So he supported her with all care, he didn't want anything wrong to happen to the mother and child duo.

"Mom! Can I take a look?"

"Dad, carry me so I can look at my little brother!"

A childish voice attracted their voice. A little boy was jumping around them shouting at them asking them to show him his little brother.

"Somir! Speak slower or else you will wake up your brother. Come here!"

His father carried the boy and showed him the baby. "Look, he is your little brother."

The little boy was amazed to see a cute little creature so he couldn't stop touching and squeezing that soft, chubby face.

-Squeeze!

-Snap!

Suddenly the baby opened his eyes and stared right at the boy's eyes. They stared at each other for a few moments. After that, the baby suddenly started to cry loudly again.

"Waah! Waah! Wahh!" (Don't touch me!)

"Oh no! Look at what you did!"

Baby's mother looked at the little boy and then shook her head after seeing the scared little boy. Somir was hugging his father's neck and looking at the baby from time to time.

" *****

******

***** "

A beautiful voice started to sing, it was a lullaby. The voice contained such gentleness and kindness in it, causing the baby to stop crying and slowly close his eyes before falling asleep again.

"""""

Twinkle, twinkle little star,

How I wonder what you are.

Up above the world so high,

Like a diamond in the sky.

Close your eyes and feel at peace,

As all your worries start to cease.

Drift away on a cloud of love,

With blessings from the heavens above.

"""""

The lullaby continued for a while and finally stopped, it stopped because the baby was asleep.

"Your voice is beautiful as always, Nazia!"

Solon spoke after Nazia finished her lullaby.

"But was it nice to use a spell on the baby?"

Solon asked worriedly again. As he said, Nazia used a spell within her lullaby.

"Don't worry, Dear. I always use this spell on patients. It has no side effects. I just wanted our baby to fall asleep so I added the spell on halfway."

"ZZZZ! ZZZZ!"

A little loud snore attracted them and both of them instantly looked at the little boy Somir.

"It seems our little troublemaker also fell asleep after hearing your sweet lullaby!"

Solon, turned little Somir to himself softly, whose face was looking upwards so snoring as a result.

"You should sleep and rest too, Nazia. I will take him to his room."

"Hmm, ok!"

Nazia nodded her head and hugged the baby and soon fell asleep.

"I will always protect our family, you, and children!"

Solon whispered and slowly left the room carrying little Somir.

But he didn't see a slight smile forming on Nazia's face.

"I will too, always beside you, Dear!"

Nazia whispered after a few moments passed after Solon left the room. She wasn't asleep yet because she knew her husband had a lot of work to do but he was here, taking care of his family.

Thinking about something for a moment she decided to sleep in this time, she protectively hugged the baby and closed her eyes.

After some time passed.

A phantom figure manifested from the baby's forehead and appeared before the mother and baby. It was like an astral projection that was said only powerful individuals could accomplish.

The figure looked at Nazia with a loving and longing gaze.

"I will also protect the family, dear Mother."

"And this time 'we' will make sure that nothing happens to you, to father, our siblings, family, to them, to her..."

The figure said softly and turned its head toward the baby.

"This is the last memory you will receive about us, about our first life in this world!"

"Use them to protect the family..."

"Use them to protect the peace..."

"I hope you can become the Strongest Monarch, conquer the impending doom - the Apocalypse, and keep the world in peace this time, so we will always live as we wanted..."

As he finally ended his words, he slowly flew toward the baby.

He stopped before the baby's forehead and he was about to disappear, a mysterious light appeared on the boy's forehead.

"I adjusted the system for everyone as a gift, well, I had to, after reading 'that' book. It will awaken when we turn seven as usual... Use it well for defeating The Apocalypse...The... The Monarch of...."

The voice slowly dissipated as the light also dispersed.
