While I was thinking of a heart-moving speech, I received some notifications, but I put them away for now as I had more important things to deal with. Currently looking up at the ancestor and putting on a “pained” expression as if I were on my last stand.
“What happens to my sister if I give up?”
Instead of answering, the ancestor looked me up and down for a moment.
“You would survive.”
That’s right, the ancestor Luke didn’t give me a direct answer, but it could still be derived. So I started giving him my protagonist bullshit.
“Then I reject your offer.”
“Why go to such lengths? Why go through a situation you know that you would not win?”
‘The hell, how would you know that I won’t win? I haven’t even used my last trump cards yet!’
While cursing my ancestor, I outwardly put on the poker face of a child endearing the “pain” on his body.
“Because I don’t care what happens to me as long as I can protect my family. Then, in the end, it’s worth it.”
‘Yup, plus if I die, I am surely going to be tortured in hell, so it’s better to have my bloodline.’
“My father sacrificed his life to protect mine. In the end, his only wish was for me to protect my family.”
‘Yup, I don’t know the guy, but I sure as hell gonna take good care of his wife and daughters.’
“Back then when my father fought for my life and died, I blamed myself for being weak and useless. But this time I will protect my family with my strength.”
‘Damn, that felt good, no wonder those MCs from the novel always said such words, it feels so damn cool!’
While hiding my real thoughts, I put on a serious expression outside, not knowing that my words deeply hit the hearts of all the girls watching.
Elda and Nora completely fell for Austin, giving him his heart. Grace, seeing her child standing so tall to protect her family, had tears fall which she thought had extinguished. Along with it, a small forbidden seed was planted.
Olivia, seeing Austin even standing to fight after all this, felt both respect and a small foreign emotion, a very minuscule one started to form. As her Empress Lora needed to change her panties after they became drenched.
All the figures floating above the sky now had some form of respect for him. All the divine weapons who were secretly watching quickly took their stance.
Luke looked at his descendant one last time before he gave a nod.
“Then do what you must.”
After that, all of them disappeared, and the fight continued. Just as I was about to pull out my last trump card, a message appeared.

]
Suddenly, I felt my blood boil. My body started to heat up, purple and crimson mana started to surround me, all the arrows on my body flew away, and blood flowed. My consciousness started to fade. Suddenly, different scenes and information started to flow through me.
I saw a black-haired purple-eyed man standing and fighting, I saw him firing an arrow ripping through the world, I saw several women accompanying him to fight the world, and many more.
At the same time on the outside, everybody saw Austin making his choice and getting ready to battle. But then, suddenly, purple and crimson mana started to surround him, and the humanoids going to attack him stopped in fear.
Yes, fear! Those energy-based, unemotional dolls felt fear. They felt dread. While those watching in the viewing room almost had their eyes pop out.
“What’s happening to him?”
Grace asked although she had a rough idea.
“Bloodline awakening.”
Bruce spoke. At some point, both Eleanor and Bruce had returned to the room. Both looked normal, not giving any information about their fight.
But if someone was to look closely, they would be able to see the small amount of blood left on his lips and the fear he showed when he looked at Eleanor.
“Three people belonging to the same family, that to siblings, all of them awakening their bloodline. That’s unprecedented.”
“You should be proud of giving birth to such extraordinary children.”
Eleanor spoke to Grace, bringing a small smile to her face. While the Emperor, though silent, had many dangerous thoughts running through his mind.
At the same time, no one noticed the Empress who froze up. Just as Austin had begun to activate his bloodline, the Empress felt her bloodline boil, and something within her became active.
The strong obsession she had became stronger. The hesitation she had vanished. Something within her bloodline pumped more feelings into her.
At the same time, across the world, some women who had awakened their bloodline felt their bloodline roar as if something that it belonged to awakened.
At the same time, the mana covering Austin rose to the sky. Under the watchful eyes of others, it formed an image of a man above Austin. He had black hair reaching his back and purple eyes like Austin’s.
As soon as the man’s form was completed, he waved his hand, causing all the enemies to be blasted off. After that, I fell directly with my face facing the ground, not being able to move.
‘Shit! What an anticlimactic ending!’
Just as I was about to relax and let myself fall unconscious, I heard some movement from my front. At the same time, I heard some indescribable screaming from my sisters.
I didn’t know it, but at this time, the so-called commander who should have been defeated stood up. Unlike its previous form, it looked ragged and hurt, barely surviving.
Slowly but surely, it began to walk towards me. Its every step caused the onlookers’ hearts to clench. But just as it was about to walk to me and kill me, something made a move.
Among the divine weapons who were watching and itching to run to Austin’s arms, a small, rusted, and dirty harp was slowly lying there.
It saw everything that happened, Austin’s pain, suffering, and determination. And when he awakened his bloodline, it finally made its move.
Before the commander could do anything, it flew directly to its barrier. The so-called A. I system that controls the historic world tried to stop it, as within its world, everything is equal.
But even with its power over the dimension, the harp ripped through the barrier like a knife through butter. And under everyone’s astonished eyes, a small, dirty harp arrived in front of the commander.
Before the commander could do anything, the harp produced a small sound that directly ripped the commander to pieces.
After that, it moved toward me. While I had no idea about it, while all this happened, I was on the ground eating dirt. Just as I was about to fall unconscious, I felt my bloodline attracted.
As if something very dear to me was coming closer. Before I knew it, I was floating above the ground, now facing up, and saw a brown and rusty harp.
Without my own will, a small drop of my blood left my body and flew toward the harp. As soon as it combined with the harp, a bright light suddenly came from it.
Under everyone’s eyes, the rusty aura surrounding the harp began to lose, and a bright blue color began to surround it.
A blue beautiful harp came into everyone’s view. It had several patterns around it, giving it a beautiful look. Even an idiot who couldn’t appreciate beauty would be moved by it.
While everyone was enjoying its beauty, several other things were happening along with it. Just as the harp had regained its look and aura.
Thousands of miles away in an underground area, there slept a dragon. It was completely black in color and lay there without any movement. There was no aura from it as if it was dead.
The dragon slowly opened its eyes, which hadn’t been opened in many years. Feeling the harp’s familiar aura, a tinge of fear passed through its prideful eyes.
Far away from the dragon, in a mansion within the olive forest, there sat an elf. It looked old and skinny as if the elf was closing in on death. But the aura around him would say something else.
Feeling a familiar aura, he opened his eyes. The elf’s memory seemed to have traveled way into the past, remembering something. But feeling the harp’s aura again, a great feeling of danger filled him.
Within the Silvie realm, in a small mansion, a girl was walking. She looked to be about 16, and the word “petite” was best to describe her. If those lolicons saw her, they would pick her up and run.
She had sky-blue hair with some pink in it, and her face was extremely cute. She had heterochromia, one of her eyes was blue, and the other pink.
But that was not the weirdest thing about her. The aura around her seemed to change. Sometimes it was of a cheerful girl, and the other time the mature aura of a person who had lived for more than a millennium came from her.
Feeling something, she moved her gaze to a certain direction. Her eyes pierced through space and arrived at Austin’s location. Seeing him and the harp, she smiled.
“Looks like the future won’t be very boring.”
After that, she skipped and moved away.
Within the god’s realm, in its highest location surrounded by fog, a location where even the three supreme goddesses won’t enter without permission.
Within the fog, there was a throne, and a woman sat on it. She could only be described as the very definition of beauty.
Her face could cause the world to go to war for it. Any man looking at her would lose his control. Pink hair that fell beyond her shoulder, a body with the perfect balance of ass and breast.
A slim waist to hold her perfectly. Suddenly, the woman opened her eyes. Her eyes were the color of a ruby, making it the perfect piece to her already perfect face.
It would have been completely perfect if her eyes weren’t cold or emotionless. It wasn’t formed from experience or life; it just is. To her, the rock on the road and the person on the road were no different. The world itself was uninteresting to her.
Her eyes tore through the world, arriving at Austin’s location. She saw throughout his past, present, and alternatives of his future. And for the first time in her life, a tinge of interest glowed in her eyes. For the first time, something caught her interest.
After that, she closed her eyes. What’s to come will come.
