Chapter 2: I Hate This System!

My mind was reeling from the fact that I was reincarnated into THE ROYAL FAMILY!

'Will I get to eat all the luxurious food in the Kingdom for free and not have to work for life!?' I asked my mind.

My mother took me to the left handed side of the six children first and presented me to a 14 year old boy who had short black hair and hazelnut eyes like father, in fact he was the spitting image of father.

I have always had a knack for knowing peoples emotions more than most people from looking at their eyes and I immediately knew I would hate this boy.

His eyes told me everything I needed to know before he could even speak. Pride, Arrogance, Annoyance and disgust towards me is what I got from his eyes.

"Sebastian this is Joel your little brother." Mother said proudly.

"Get this mere child away from me." Sebastian told mother with a harsh tone.

Mother quickly moved to the child on my right and I felt that same look again from this time a 13 year old girl whose name was Aubrey who had long black hair that went behind her shoulders. Her beauty could be compared to mother as they had the same eyes and facial features.

"I heard this child's name already so please get it away from me." She said with arrogance.

I could feel mother shaking with displeasure as she moved onto the next one. This time the look was somewhat different. Her name was Emily and she was 11 with hazelnut eyes but her hair was sunflower yellow and her eyes leaked pride and arrogance but also displeasure but not towards me.

She leaned in to me and touched my forehead gently. I felt a little shock as she did that and she opened her mouth to speak.

"Hello." She said disinterested.

I didn't care if she was disinterested or not as I had no intention to be friends with her but she made a better impression than the other two.

Mother felt relieved as she was worried no one was going to like me but she felt worried again when she refused the offer to hold me.

Mother moved on again to the 4th child this time. A 10 year old boy named Clive with purple hair looked at me with eyes that showed pride and arrogance but also some interest and curiosity while also displaying some boredom.

"Hello Joel welcome to the family." He said while looking at me.

He refused the offer to hold me as well. Mother became more worried because of this.

The 5th child was a 9 year old girl whose name was Lucy. Her eyes reminded me of mine int he past when I wasn't with Alice. Sadness, total sadness. Her beauty was comparable to mother and her hair was dark blue with tints of black.

"Hello Joel, welcome." She said with some curiosity and was feeling a slight bit of happiness.

As mother was about to move on to the last child without offering her a hold of me I began to cry and reach my arms out towards her. Mother was shocked as she hadn't seen me cry before.

"That's the first time you've cried y'know." She said. She offered for her to hold me and she agreed.

She embraced me onto her chest and I immediately stopped crying. Everyone's eyes became slightly wide as they glared at Jasmine. Mother was staring at her as well. I almost fell asleep in her arms as they were just perfect to sleep on but I was scooped up by mother.

Mothers face was in shock when she saw Lucy smiling. I didn't take my eyes off her until it was time to meet my final brother. He was 8 years old and was looking at me with innocence, curiosity and happiness.

His name was Max and he had lime green hair with hazelnut eyes. He accepted the offer to hold me and I didn't cry either.

The sibling were told to leave the room and Lucy looked back at me as she was leaving.

Mother proceeded to feed me far 10 minutes until I was put into my crib. The lights were turned off and my body easily fell asleep.

Sunlight pierced into the room through the openings in the curtain and woke me up along with it.

I was still surprised to see that I was in a fantasy world and royalty at that so my wake up was a bit slow. As soon as I fully opened my eyes I heard a *ding* from in front of me and the quest box appeared.

I groaned at remembering everything that I had to do yesterday and begun to loathe the system. The same quest was issued and the details were shown once again.

The fact that the quest box was probably insanely overpowered became a reality to me at that point in time. I proceeded to attempt to say all the words but they couldn't form into sound which annoyed me heavily.

I completed my physical quest and got the same rewards as last time and my new quest wasn't something that had to be done daily but it would need to be to complete it. The thing that pissed me off the most was the systems lack of ability to activate when I wanted it to. Sometimes I had to get the physical quest done in the last thirty minutes of the night! 'I HATE THIS SYSTEM!'
