A High Reaper's Bloodline?

[Congratulation!]

[You received the High Reaper's Bloodline]

''...?'' He looked at the screen with an questioning gaze.

But before that, he checked his state first!

....

...

..

After checking everything in his body.,

Both surface and insides,

''Hah...'' Asher sighed in relief, After checking anything, He's still alive! Maybe he's just overthinking earlier?

Looking at the Bloodline he got from the ticket, he asked Liliana about it..

''Hey Liliana... If you wanted to apologized, it's the right time now because I didn't die and got a new Bloodline instead.'' He said with an menacing tone, and it scares Liliana.

(Hiie!!) Liliana squealed, getting intimidated by Asher!

She's also felt guilty on what she did earlier...

She accidently pressed the [Use] button the in screen...

She might be overreacting but that almost cause Asher's life.

Well that's the same even if Asher so it on his own.

So what is she worried about?

(Is he going to change.... me?) She knew that Asher is pissed!

Liliana felt nervous... It's her first time guiding someone and she messed it up!

Imagining about her mother having disappointed expression to her...

(Uuuu....) Liliana's eyes is getting watery...

But she didn't know that it's just one of his playful antics...

He really isn't mad at Liliana or blame her.

Why would he?

Liliana can't do anything if he got the Bloodline that will kill him, nor can Liliana lower the chance of him getting it.

So the reason of this prank?

He just wanted to mess with her a little for surviving! And for making him almost lose his calm because of her clumsiness, which make him embarrassed and filled with shame.

In his assassin life, never did he show an ounce of emotion to anybody else, except his family and friends.

So for him, losing his calm because of her clumsiness, he felt like his pride of hiding his emotions, crumbled.

(R-really?)

''....'' Asher can imagine her expression right now, but he can't imagine her face but it's suppose to be a very cute one, considering her personality.

Earlier, she's speaking like she have most of the knowledge in the world to be wise, but looking at her, reply, he began to think her differently.

'But at the same time, she can fake it...' Asher couldn't help but have a doubt if Liliana is really a innocent, pure girl she really was.

But what he didnt't know was that the message existed to tell Guide's reaction emotion, and feelings...

The Guide's can't fake it.

The System wanted her children to feel and have emotions so they can enjoy their life.

But why does he doubt her? Or why does he care about it if she is just faking it or not?

'Maybe I'm overthinking too much again.' Asher sighed, maybe his cautious nature is making him like this,

Overthinking on simple things...

''Just tell me what's the [High Reaper's Bloodline], and what's it's uses.'' Though he can look at the information about it, he decide to ask Liliana first.

(Umm... Okay! Ehem.) After that, her atmosphere changed into serious and cold woman.

Asher couldn't help but raise his eyebrows a little at her big change.

The atmosphere she emitting right now, even if he didn't see her, is like an night and day to her previous atmosphere.

(A [High Reaper's Bloodline], just like the Grim reaper you heard on your previous life, it collects soul.)

(But your Bloodline didn't collect souls for nothing. Instead, it eat souls to grow from those who you kill.)

''Hm?'' Maybe this Bloodline is suitable for him.

He liked to massacre people who doesn't deserve to live in this world.

He doesn't care about people, that he doesn't know but he will still help them if he can but the satisfaction of killing evil, r*pist, psychopath, or any evil persons are so good so he sometimes mostly ignore innocent people that he suppose to safe.

It's like... an drug that make him wanted to kill more people...

(A [High Reaper's Bloodline] isn't a normal bloodline, the name tells it already, there's a big flaw on this bloodline so that makes you lucky and unlucky at the same time when you get this.)

(The big flaw?)

(The Bloodline gives you an worse nightmare for those who you killed, you need a very strong mental will if you wanted to grow. It also burden your body if you keep killing many people and doing many evil things without doing good like saving and helping people because your bloodline is connected to the Karma, meaning your Karma has to be balance to be safe.)

(If you have too much good Karma, the bloodline will deem you unworthy and will kill you to find another person that is suitable for them.)

The other reason is...

(Too much bad Karma will make you very very unlucky and there's an high amount of chance that you will die from bad luck.)

"Okay..."

(And you don't worry about struggling to kill enemies because you will received a skills related to the Bloodline.)

----

(AN: These Bloodline and the other two skills are inspired by a game! It's my favorite! :3333

I really don't know if I should do this... But you guys can tell me if it's great or not.)

----

(The Skills of this bloodline are...)

A screen suddenly appeared in front of Asher.

He isn't surprise this time.

He then looked closely at the screen, that gives the information of the skills.

--------

(That's all the skills, you can get more if you make your bloodline stronger.)

''...'' Asher is silent.

He's looking intently at mana usages. Those expensive usages!

(What? I know the mana usage is big in every skills but they are overpowered skills so it's fair.)

(You can still use your assassin skills or learn some magics if you wanted to save mana.)

''I know...''Asher felt a little down. There's nothing he can do about it so he won't complain.

Suddenly, Liliana's atmosphere changed back into a cheerful and innocent one.

(But, hey! You just need to patient. Every time these skills gets upgraded, the usage will be more cheaper!) Liliana tried to cheer Asher up! Which make him chuckle.

''I'm... Not really that unmotivated because of the expensive mana usage. I already experience hard work as an Assassin so you don't need to worry about me, being lazy, Liliana.'' He reassured Liliana.

He already knows that the system will make his life more easier than his previous life.

Those rewards in quest is really great.

After he reassured Liliana,

She smiled gently at him.

(I... Know.)

Unfortunately, that message didn't get send to Asher.

''But... thank you for trying to cheer me up.'' Asher felt getting guide by Liliana is more enjoyable than the Evil Loli.

But he still choose the Evil Loli compared to Liliana if he have to choose between the two of them.

'I should prepare a name for that loli after she came back from that hard work...' Asher decided.

He should give her a name as a thanks for her hard work all this years.

Maybe it's not that worth much than her hard work but he just wanted to thank her for taking care of him.

''Asher!'' A loud sound suddenly called him.

It's his oldest sister, Amelia.

''Coming!'' He then stand up and run towards his bedroom's door.

He opened it to see Amelia

She seems... pouting? Like she's jealous of something.

'Maybe it's because of my interaction with the three girls.' Asher had a suspicion when he felt that Amelia is jealous.

So he deduce about what happen earlier and got his answer.

Anyway,

Almost like she read his thoughts,

Her facial expression then turn into what Asher is familiar of,

A happy older sister.

Amelia doesn't wanted her little brother to see her ugly sides so she hides her expression before.

"Asher, did you enjoy your birthday party today?"

'Why did you have to ask it, when you guys completely stalked me earlier...' It creep Asher a little when he sense it.

"Mhm! It's was really fun!" Asher nodded enthusiastically.

(Host is really a good actor!) Liliana cheerfully praise Asher.

"That's great then..." Amelia sighed in relief, but she already expected it, considering his interaction before with those three girls when she observed him earlier.

"Follow me, we're going to have your favorite dinner today!" After she said that, Asher hold her left hand tightly immediately and run towards to the dining room quickly, dragging Amelia, who's chuckling from Asher's reaction.

"Wait! Asher, don't run too fast! You might get tripped on the way." Amelia scolded Asher when he's running too fast!

"Sorry..." Asher apologized, showing his completely guilty face to Amelia.

Amelia smiled,

"You don't need to be completely sorry but don't do that again, alright?" She told him while ruffling his head, messing his hair.

''Okay!''

''Then let's go now.'' She said while she slowly hold his hands.

''Mhm!'' They then walked towards to their dining room.

While walking, Amelia keep asking Asher about his experience on the party earlier, which Asher answer with a mix of a lot of truth and a bit of lies.

They keep talking until they finally arrived at the dining room

Eleanor smiled when her family is all in here.

"Let's eat.''
