Douluo Dalu : White God 4 Spirit Awakening!

"Excuse me your highness, you should wake up soon." An old and calming voice coming from outside a room.

"Yees, I'll be ready in a second!"

Uugh, another boring day without any excitement whatsoever. As per my routine, i wake up and the maids wipe my body clean. After that i wear my clothes and go to dining room with a grey-haired old man wearing a black changsan with red line motives.

Apparently, he is tasked by father to become my bodyguard-c.u.m-caretaker and I call him uncle Yi, he comes from h.e.l.l clan with a surname of Zhu, a subsidiary of our Evil eyed clan that has served and had been loyal to us from the time of the first emperor himself.

"Are you ready your highness?" On our way to the dining room, he asked me with a question that, in my opinion, is weird.

Ready? ready for what? aren't we gonna have breakfast? you old freak always asking an unclear question.

"It's your sixth birthday, subsequently today also the day your spirit will be awakened." realizing the kid's ignorance, the old man informing him about the event that will take place today.

"O...Of course, I remember Uncle Yi, how could I forget my own birthday" I said while patting my chest to a.s.sure him.

s.h.i.t, how can I forget my own birthday? anyway, what's up with this foreboding feeling in me?

"Good, now we should be head to dining room first so that you can have your breakfast then we'll go to Royal Hall where all of your families from all over and your friends will attend to witness your Spirit awakening ceremony."

Ugh uncle Yi and his rapid talking, will talk a bit slower kill you? your talk is faster than wind chasing horse's galloping.

"Oh, by the way, your fiancee, Zhu Zhuqing will also come. But per her request, I won't tell you which one is her so good luck finding my niece."

Yes, I have a fiancee and my fiancee is uncle Yi's niece, she is the first daughter of the Zhu family's third elder, Or so I've been told. A year ago, my father told me because of an old promise to an old friend if he has a son he will betroth his son to the daughter of h.e.l.l family. The thing is my father has two sons, my older brother, Dai Weisi, and me, Dai Mubai. Guess what? He 'conveniently' betrothed both of his sons to h.e.l.l family's daughter because he was uncertain which of us that will become his heir. Not that like I care much, it's a business for far in the future anyway.

Oh yeah, my father is the King of this Star Luo Kingdom and yes that's mean me and my older brother are the princes of the Star Luo Royal household.

Speaking of my brother, I respect him very much and we often play together and he taught me a lot of things like how to differentiate a poisonous plant from an ordinary one and various habit of tiger kind of spirit beast.

But sadly for us, it is destined in the future we will have to fight for the throne. because The Heir to the throne is by tradition the strongest in the royal family, so it can be said that I and my older brother are rival.

Uncle Yi himself is an outer elder of h.e.l.l family, he married the previous patriarch's daughter dozens of years ago. Uncle Yi used to serve as a sergeant rank in the military in this Star Luo Kingdom then converted into a special agent of sorts before retired a few years back due to old age, and now become my bodyguard-c.u.m-caretaker voluntary because he's used to be very close with Father when they were in the army before.

Back to topic, now me and uncle Yi are having breakfast. Even though he's my bodyguard I treat him just like my own family, thinking that the time I spent with my father was less than a hundredth time I spent with uncle Yi. I began to think that 'Who's the father here?'

"Your Highness second prince, are you done yet? We have to head to Royal Hall soon." After Done eating Uncle Yi, stood behind me like usual. It's annoying...

"Uncle, can't you just call me by my own name? it's sound awkward for me. I mean you're my family too." I protest to uncle Yi, it is very annoying that he is way too stiff. It took me a great deal of effort to convince him to eat together with me like this.

"My Apologize your highness, it is only proper for me to call you like this. As my status right now is indeed a servant of the Royal family." Again with that unruly status, aaaagh I wanna screaming out loud!

"Tsk, it's annoying if you put it like that uncle Yi." I said that while pouting, then remembering something I ask him

"Uncle, what if my spirit is mutated?"

"Hm? What about it?" Uncle said, his eyebrow lifted with curious eyes. Finally got something from that flat face.

"Even though if your spirit will be different if it's mutated, many of mutated spirit get stronger with that mutation." Uncle Yi explaining with patience to me while keep walking

"But I heard that in the past in the main branch of blue lightning tyrant dragon clan there was a mutation that made that person unable to advance to 30th rank and a few years back he finally got banished from his clan." I'm saying that with worry plastered all over me

"What... What if my spirit mutated like that too..." while I'm saying all of that, tears began welling up in the corner of my eyes imagining all of that to happen.

"WUAAA, I'm scared uncle Yi." I bawling loudly, shouting what's in my heart.

Hearing my words, uncle Yi stepping up and hugging me.

"Don't worry Mubai, your uncle is here. regardless of what happens to you later after your spirit awakening, your uncle here will keep protecting you with all I have." Uncle Yi said to me with a gentle and unhurried tone, surprising me.

My heart feels warm hearing what uncle Yi said, it's rea.s.suring to hear that from uncle Yi. It is only known to few people that uncle Yi is 82nd rank Spirit Douluo, surely there are people out there stronger than him but still, he's stronger than most people.

Plus with his spirit, Yellow feathered Hawk, that granted him the nickname 'Winged Flash' when he was in the army. How do I know? well, he did tell me a year ago when he was drunk at the party of my engagement with his niece.

"Straighten up Mubai, keep your head up. Don't worry about your spirit awakening, I'm sure that you'll do great." Uncle Yi staring deep at my eyes with a.s.suring gaze, then he tidies me up again because my clothes become dishelved.

We walking unhurriedly, neither fast nor slow toward the Star Luo Royal Hall.

"Ready your highness?" asked uncle Yi with small smile hanging on his lips. I only nodding a little to respond to his question, then we walk through Hall's entrance.

"Brother, what takes you so long?" just after I enter the hall, a sound of someone calling me could be heard.

Elder Brother, he's waiting for me here! I grinning foolishly hearing his voice. Can't help it, I admire him after all elder brother is elder brother. He is strong and always play with me.

"Hurry up! I can't wait to eat those sweets, but aunt didn't let me. She said we have to wait until your awakening ceremony end, only then I'm allowed to eat those sweets! so hurry up!"

Ack! d.a.m.n him, I thought that he's really waiting for me. It seems that the only thing that he'd care is these enticing sweets. Looking around while pouting, I see that today the Royal Hall is decorated mainly in white and red color, white is mainly our family's favorite color as we are white tiger and red color as a sign of merry occasion. As I curiously looking around, something caught my eyes on the dining table.

Wow, Look at that melted chocolate with layers of biscuits dipped in cream coffee with eggs, sugar, whipped cheese, cocoa powder. This cake is also called "heaven in your mouth", it is a cake called Tiramisu...

*Gulp* that heavenly fragrance...

Unconsciously I gulped down my own saliva after glancing at the sweets on the table, I can't get those sweets out of my mind!

"Mubai, now step here on the altar. Let us begin your awakening ceremony."

Father's voice snapped me out of my sweetphoria state, I quicken my pace and standing on the altar in front of father and turning my body facing the crowd.

"Today I invite you all here to tell you good news, in the silver bloom hill near silver clock city, Duke Dai Feng discovered a new metal vine, congratulation to Duke Dai Feng!" After father said that, cheers from all the guests could be heard.

"In this joyous occasion, my second son, Dai Mubai, is also celebrating his sixth birthday and will be awakening his spirit." My father said with strong charisma, seeing that I cannot help but wonder if I can be like him someday.

"Then to start the party, I will begin with triggering my son's spirit."

Father stretching his hand and touching my forehead, i feel something flowing to me and spread all over my body. After a moment pa.s.sed, something inside me feels like it being tugged.

After that, I feel like something warm embracing me and make me want to be part of it. I let my instinct take place and let it enveloping me entirely...

...

It was at this moment, all of the people present don't know that 'Dai Mubai' they know got his soul swallowed and a.s.similated by 'Li Baixi' from another world.

This is the point that got altered from the course of fate and history for the better or the worse.

And this is the beginning of an eternal legend that will be told through the entire world of 'soul land' from generation to generation.
