I woke up quite early, despite what happened last night. It's quite... amazing. Even though we went wild last night, I'm awake already. I couldn't even imagine that I got to experience all of that. While staring into the ceiling, all of the memories about last night keep on replayed inside my head. Suddenly, I feel some warm wrapping my right side. Turning my head to the side, I saw a naked beauty wrapped under the blanket hugging my left arm snuggly. I lost my virginity to this beauty, the one I love.
'Impregnation confirmed. Scanning. Confirming. Authorising. Authorise complete. Curse lifted. Blood seal unlocked. Status updated. Passive granted. Hidden authority confirmed. Hoping for host to keep up the good job. Do you want to view status?'
Suddenly, a voice appeared out of nowhere. It sounded quite synthetic, but apart from that I don't know what's happening. Not long after, it struck me. A compilation of information… No, memories were compressed into my mind. Weirdly, it feels natural. As if, it's from the beginning. I see…
I remembered now. Finally, I remembered my name. And why I'm here up until now (I'm dead serious here, it's not my EXCUSE okay?) Before I lost my consciousness inside the forest, I'm running. From what you ask? Actually, I'm one of the royalty. A prince far from here if I refer to the map Luna once showed me before. Well, a discarded prince to be exact. They said I'm incompetent and had no future to lead the kingdom even though I'm the first in line to succeed the throne.
In actuality, it's a part of my plan to live an easy, slow life with one I loved. I hate politics, I hate power struggle and I hate cronyism. That's why I made the façade. The only person that known my abilities was my butler, Sigried. To be exact, he's a combat butler as well as my teacher. All my skills, techniques and arts was taught, drilled and polished by him. Though he praised me as a genius, it's also a fact that he's a good teacher. Besides, I was also one of the Lost ranked adventurer which only five existed around this world. Due to him, I can achieved this.
Due to me putting up a façade, even my father the king ended up dissing me. Only the queen, Sigried and some people that accept me the way I'm. That's why, I don't feel a thing when the king was killed during the coup de tat. Due to the panic, I can't respond well and just accept what Sigried asked me before I ran under the darkness of the night that day. What happened to others, I don't know. Up until now I'm still worried about my mom the queen as well as those I care for.
Before that, I had another identity. Actually, I came from another world. To be exact, I'm called the Evil God from where I came. Due to some circumstances, I found this world and created a vessel to live in this world. Though I didn't expect to live as a prince before. That's really random, I swear. Well, during the creation of my vessel, I put some curse on it as limitation as well as joke. I'll explain the curse later on. Another thing is, before I lose my memories me in this world I also put a seal on myself which both the effects of the seal and curse overlapped.
Now that my memories were back and I already fulfilled the condition to leave the forest from Luna, it's time to break the curse and seal as well as searching for those I care that I lose during the coup de tat. As I don't know what happened after that, the first thing I need to find: information. I might as well become an adventurer under different name from before to gain some Intel and fund to live on.
Aside from the memories, I need to check on my current status. In laymen term, it's something like the parameter of a game character. I don't know about it as before, it never appeared. Even when I became an adventurer before, it never showed on my guild card despite the item had a recording function. That time, I thought of it as bug or glitch as even the guild master can't tell why that happened. With the intention of seeing my status, I thought of displaying it.

Is this… Correct? It's quite unbelievable you know. This is what we called outrageous. Plus, what���s with that 'Hero? Is that Delicious?' title?! Or maybe because there's still something I can't remember due to the curse and seal, which now registered under my passive abilities. But still, this is truly weird! Argh damn it. Let's just do one thing at one time. Still need to get used to this new sensation properly. Or else I can't achieve my objective, whether the current vessel goals or my past goals (since now I'm in another world I need to differentiate them right?). For now, I need to prepare to leave this forest.
'Synchronisation complete. Host recognised. The reaction time increased by 50%. Please take care of us from now on'.
Urm…. This is quite weird. Is this the effect of some of my abilities? Somehow… Forget it. It's not like I can get any answer.
'Wrong. The host still can get the answer so long as we have the ability to do so. Please don't be reserved to ask anything' ??>
Again. Okay… let me calm down first. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Now let clarify something first.
"What are you?"
'Effect of the host ability. The one answering is Wiseman.'
"Before you said 'we'. Is that mean there's another ability with the same effect?"
'Affirmative. Another one is Hermit. Both of us have same ability with different scope. Let's just say Wiseman is more to general knowledge and Hermit for lost knowledge according to the host memory and situation.'
I see. I think I understand. Maybe due to some of my ability from my world, it effect my current ability. After all, there's still some hole in my memory.
"I understand. But, how can I differentiate between both of you when, if, I interact with both of you at the same time? Also, Can you please not call me host?"
'To differentiate us, just state the setting you want. Let's just say, it's like voice configuration setting. As for the second matter, how do we refer the host?'
"Hmmm. Let see, since Wiseman give the vibe of a reliable older sister please go with that. As for Hermit, I'll set it as knowledgeable little sister. Also, just call me Ash for now. I need to find out something first for another clarification."
'Setting completed. Side note: Are you a pervert?'
"W-why did you ask that?!"
'Because of the way you set us'
"…."
Okay. I can't refute that. But what can I say. Before I lose my memory, I don't have any good memory with my siblings. Plus, I'm not true blood of my family. Specifically speaking, I'm adopted. But the memory from before that, in which regarding my blood related family, there's still some loophole. The reason I can say that confidently is due to the title 'False descendant'. Plus, I still remember my feeling of the different in physiological growth. Not to forget, my status also stated that I'm a Lost Human. As from my previous world, I still can't remember anything aside from the fact that I'm an Evil God called Dark Abyss Necro who was despised by the world. Even if that's the case, I think having ability as my siblings doesn't seems bad.
'We take that as compliment, BROTHER Ash~'
"…."
Did my thought connected to them?
'I wonder about that'
Okay that confirmed it. But why does somehow I heard sarcasm there?
'That's just your imagination MASTER~'
Please stop that. I'll die out of embarrassment…
'That's cute Ash~'
Geez it's the first time I faced something like this and I already want to bang my head to oblivion. Please stop it. Plus, how come an ability knows how to tease others?
'We just followed how master wanted us to be. To be exact, we just fulfilled your inner desire'
Shocked. Is that really what I want? I don't know how to respond to that.
'Another thing is, if you fulfil certain condition we may evolve due to your Ability Evolution skill. Plus, how you decide thing will decide our growth.'
"You shitting me?!"
Yeah, no one misheard me. I accidently let out my thought. In my opinion, the current status is already bugged. If what she said is true, I wonder what will happened in the future. Haaa… I can already imagine problems here and there. Perhaps the only silver lining is I can disguise myself. Or perhaps, I can alter my status from other view. Or even restraining myself from involving in troubles.
'Don't worry. Depend on us more. Though we are just what you desire and set up, we're still part of you. Perhaps, you want us to help you I managing your status and abilities?'
My hunch does not betray me at all. Wiseman really sounds dependable. I'm just hoping that someway along the journey, I can repay them somehow.
'No need to rush. According to my calculation, we'll be together for quite a time.'
"That's sounds reassuring. Please take care of me, PARTNERS."
'B- Baka!'
'You want to be even huh?'
"Just kidding. Well, please take care of me both of you"
'Please take care of us too'
Okay. That's one thing solved. Next, I need to prepare for the journey. Since it will take quite a time perhaps I'll go tomorrow. Other thing I need to think is Luna. I don't know, but I felt quite reluctant to leave her here alone after all this time. Maybe I'll bring her together but, I don't want her to be in danger.
'Skill optimisation complete. For any ability that need confirmation, command prompt will be issued. For further info, please refer to the Job and Ability Tome. Or perhaps, just ask either Wiseman or Hermit.'
'Ash, you can used your crafting ability to either create enchantment to make the house mobile or create a magic item called Otherworldly Globe. But for the magic item, you need another ability called Magic Item Creation. But with your Tome ability combined with Genius passive, you can pulled it off. Plus, your ability already being optimised by Wiseman'
"...."
This… Really make me speechless. Just how incredible they are?! Plus, they really done it in split second. Hot damn!
'Praise us more! Fufufufu~'
"Wiseman, that remark really dropped my impression you know"
'Ehhhhh?! W- Whyyyyy?!'
'Never mind her. She's just someone who often messed their own ass'
'Etto… Hermit'
Okay… Maybe I'll just ignore their bickering.
'Please don't ignore me!'
'Just do what you want Ash. Ignore her for now or else, she'll let it get to her head. Finish your preparation first. If you got something, just state it.'
Okay then…? First thing first, since Luna still not up yet I'll make our breakfast first. Then, continue with my daily routine. Ingredient prep. Deciding whether to make that enchantment or magic item then proceed with it. Preparing my stuff for the journey. Oh, don't forget about discussing with Luna with her plan after this.
With that decided, I leave the bed after I make sure that I cover Luna's naked body properly. I don't want her to catch a cold.
