Mother Of All Systems - Chapter 5 Great Grandfather Merlin
“Why? Can’t i visit my Grandson?” he said then smirk.
“U-uh Of course you can Grandfather” Clay’s father said Respectfully he didn’t want to Offend a Powerful existence such as the legendary magus Merlin who is standing before him.
“it’s just that is not even half an hour yet that he was born!” Clay’s Father said.
“Hoho Are you questioning my ability? Dmitry i have my own means you know?” Merlin said. Then walking forward to check his own Great Grandson.
“N-no Grandfather of course no-” Dmitry got interrupted when he hear Merlin said
“Amazing!!” Merlin said his eyes is brightening like seeing a precious treasure.
~ Clay’s POV ~
” Who is this? What is this pressure? It’s even hard to breath.” Clay thought.
[ Ding… WARNING! A Powerful Entity is near you i advise host to stay away as far away asa possible!]
“What Powerful entity? Holy crap i can’t even move how can i stay away?” Clay said thinking some ideas on how he can escape but nothings going inside his mind. It was at this moment he heard his father said Grandfather.
“Grandfather? Which means he is my Great Grandfather? Incredible he looks like a little bit over 60. At least my chance of not dying is big now. he will not kill me right? Im his Grandson after all.” Clay had a sigh of relief. He can even see his father’s sweat drops.
Then it was at this moment that he saw his Great Grandfather walking towards him.
” wait? is he walking towards me what will he do? ” clay thought and slightly scared. Before when Clay’s mother see his eyes she had a shock on his face then clay thought maybe he will not open his eyes. Even his father hadn’t seen it when Merlin shows up he open his eyes a little bit just to see the figure.
Then he close it again but upon him hearing the footsteps that’s walking towards him he can’t help but open his eyes then have a moment of eye to eye contact. Before Merlin said
“Amazing” when clay hear this has a ugly expression he thought he will be regarded as a curse child turns out he didn’t.
” Such a pure bloodline!!” clay heard this then ask the system ” system why he is making such an exaggeration?” Clay ask the system.
[ Ding… Host that is not an exaggeration even though you get your bloodline that easily for normal people it isn’t. In this world there’s a lot of people who has a bloodline but they have just a faint of it it can even be considered a miracle if you have 50% of purity in your bloodline.]
“ahhhh ok” Clay finally understanding the system.
Then he saw his great grandfather casting some magic then he ask the system.
“system what is he soing? Clay ask afraid of what this magic all about.
[ Ding… Host does not need to worry he is casting Mana detection magic so that he will know if you have mana and talent for magic also to know your magic capacity.]
” ahhh phew i thought something bad ia going to happen” Clay sigh in relief again when he hear merlin said
“Amazing so amazing he has a mana not also that it is way bigger than normal baby mage for about 10 times or more” Merlin’s eyes lit up even more. Dmitry can’t also hid the shock and amusement in his face because Dmitry’s family is composed only by knights even the line of their family in the ancient times had a very little mages her wife’s family had a lot of capable people people and in their family she is the only one to have a very little mana. After all their family is composed mainly of mage. But even so how can their child have a 10 times bigger mana than his peers no just that he even have such pure bloodline when both of them doesn’t even have a faint bloodline? Isn’t it just an extreme exaggeration?
“Grandfather then do you think he have a chance to be like you?” Dmitry ask.
“it depends on how hard he works im just a magus not a Prophet. But if he does works his way up I’m sure he can be like me. No he can even surpass me. When I’m born i only have 5 times but he have 10 he can just put half of the effort to reach where i am now ” Merlin said. And Dmitry’s face is overjoyed with joy if he have a child that can reach that level isn’t it good?
Then Merlin said ” Dmitry in 4 years time there’s some scouts from Magnus Empire that will find some child who has a talent in magic they will be scouting in one of your territories. Take that child their to take the test and i will wait for him” Merlin said with a happy expression.
” what is that child’s name?” Merlin ask.
” C-clay evergreen Grandfather!” Dmitry said Respectfully and stuttering a bit after all he heard the magnus empire. In this world there’s a 3 Grand Empires and Magnus empire is one of them.
“Clay. I will remember that name hahaha.” Merlin is really happy now totally different than his solemn expression before and scary but now he exude an aura of a grandfather. Then he disappeared without a trace.
Dmitry is kind of shock because this is the first time he saw him grandfather laugh genuinely.
“I will take him there Grandfather!” Dmitry said while looking outside of the window then look at his son affectionately.
