"AEDUS!" scream was heard from the kitchen of a medium-sized house. From outside it seemed as if this wooden house stood for at least a century, but interior was cleaned and well-furnished for a lower-class family.

Young man with athletic body and age of no more than 20 rushed to investigate. The distance between yard and entrance of the kitchen was covered in seconds. He knew that this wasn't a burglary. His wife was pregnant and he knew where this was going.

"W-What happened? D-Did your waters break?" Asked young man named Aedus with worry and excitement mixed in his voice.

"Y-Y-Yes! C-Call him now!" Said a young woman of the same age as Aedus while placing one of her hands on her belly.

The young man quickly went upstairs into the attic. He furiously opened chest and took a small, green colored crystal from it. He then rushed to the yard and looked at the crystal again.

"Please hurry. I need you more than ever in my life." Aedus whispered as he looked up in the sky and infused crystal with his little amount of mana. He threw the crystal as high as he could and after reaching height of 50-60 meters it exploded.

Little amount of mana that Aedus infused in the crystal was mixed with already infused mana and it created mana-infused explosion. It was meant to attract attention of certain someone. Aedus then rushed back into kitchen and layed his wife now.

Right next to the woman was a little girl. She had black hair like her mother and brown eyes like her father. She was holding her mother's hands while asking questions about what was happening.

"D-D-Did you call him?" Asked woman as he looked at her husband with worried eyes.

"Don't worry! He'll be here soon I'm sure!" Aedus calmed her down as he sat right beside her. His nails were digging into the skin on the knee. He was excited at the thought of having his second child, but he was scared that something would happen to her wife. All he could do was wait and hope for the best.

So it has begun, huh?

Artyom felt that her mother's waters broke. He knew that soon he would be born into this new magical world filled with kingdoms, magic, monsters and other humans. He wasn't especially happy about being reborn for one simple reason.

He hated his past parents.

They were abusive, disgusting, worthless alcoholics and drug addicts. They were beating Artyom anytime they could, with or without a reason. His first memory was him getting hit at the age of 3. He didn't know how he survived then. His father died when he was 6 and his mother drank even more. The beatings continued for the rest of his life with his widowed mother. Only thing that he could do was endure it and bury that grudge deep down in his subconcious.

This painful memory scared him now. He was sure that her mother wasn't getting drunk ever. At most she would drink 1 small glass of amber colored liquid and it wasn't containing enough alcohol to make her drunk or even harm her and her new son. But he wasn't sure about his father. He was working at the guard duty of the village that they were living in. It's name was Reketh and it was on near the easter bordern of the kingdom Drakas.

Artyom himself didn't know how he acquired this knowledge about the world. It was small amount of information, but valuable nonetheless. There were only 2 possibilities here. One, His mother's knowledge somehow transferred to him or two, That void or something implanted this knowledge deep into his mind.

Suddenly, Artyom felt pressure. He understood what was happening so he tried to ease his soon-to-be mother's struggle and tried to push himself out of her womb little by little using his Psychokinesis. He tried moving muscles and tissues around him carefully to ensure that her mother wouldn't suffer or die. He was approaching the light at the end of this "tunnel" and he needed to make sure that her mother would survive. He didn't know why he wanted his new mother to survive. Maybe it was because he subconsciously accepted her.

The end of the "tunnel" was nearing and finally he was born.

He waited a little bit to make sure that somebody would at least touch his little body. After moments, Pressure was applied to his solar plexus and a small jolt of mana entered it. Artyom knew what he had to do, so he started crying. He still couldn't open his eyes, but he knew that everybody calmed down after baby started crying.

He felt his body moving towards something and soon he felt the warmth that he would never forget. Not only physically, but also mentally he was bathed by this unknown warmth and feeling of safety.

Artyom opened his eyes to see a young woman with tears. She had black hair and black, beautiful eyes that were filled with tears. Her beauty would wipe the floor with other models from earth. But most importantly, he knew that this woman was his mother now.

He tried to look around him and saw 3 figures stading in the room that most likely resembled a living room. One figure which was presumably his father. Athletic, well trained body with height of almost 6 feet, With dark-brown hair and brown eyes, his father was grinning. He was shaking too and it looked like he wanted to take his son into his hands as soon as possible.

Next figure was a slightly shorter and wrinkly old man. His body was slim, but his back wasn't hunched. He had grey beard all the way down to his chest and he was dressed in robes. This man was emitting mana, so most likely he was a mage or wizard of some sort. He was smilling in relief too.

Lastly, there was a small girl holding Artyom's father's leather pants. She wasn't smilling, but Artyom could see excitenment and happiness in her eyes. She was his older sister now.

After scanning the whole room, Artyom turned his head back towards his mother. He felt hunger creep up and he placed his small hand on his mother's breast. Her breasts were big, probably F cup or even more, but Artyom wasn't feeling any lust towards her. It was his mother and he knew that doing anything 18+ was a big no-no.

Mother understood her son instantly and pulled her dress, revealing nipple and offering it to the baby. Artyom started drinking the breastmilk and didn't care about anything else, even his new name.

"He is so beautiful." Said young woman as he caressed her son's head.

"W-W-We should name him right now!" Said Aedus with excitenment in his voice. He looked at the old magus." Would you like to name him, Rorsak?"

"Hehehe. Thank you old friend, but I think someone else should give the name to this beatiful boy." Said Rorsak as he looked at young girl and smiled" Elza, Would you like to name your little brother?"

"M-Me? B-But I don't know good names" Said Elza as she looked down, thinking of good name to give to his little brother. She knew that his little brother would have this name and this name only forever, so she shouldn't disappoint him!

She looked at her brother and then said loudly.

"KARI! Please name him Kari!" She said proudly as she looked at her parents. In return, they smiled and looked at the newborn baby. Mother started chuckling a little.

"So you name him Kari even though my name is Kara? Haha, I like it sweety. I'm sure that Kari will love his name" She said as she looked down at her baby and whispering. "You will grow up to be a great man Kari. You will make your mommy and daddy proud."

Rorsak smiled and then he told Elza to leave the room. She obeyed his order and slowly walked out, not to disturb his little brother. After she closed the door behind her, Rorsak looked at her parents with a slight worry on his face. He then spoke.

"Congratulations on having you second child, but there is a problem." When he mentioned the word "problem", both Kara and Aedus flinched. Rorsak understood the situation and quickly added. "Sorry. What I meant to say was that he has something rather strange about him. When you gave birth to him, I wanted to use my mana to help you ease the pain and carefully force the child out. But before I could do that, The birth was almost over. It was as if the child was using his own mana to get out of the womb and at first I thought that that was the case."

Kara didn't feel as much pain as other mothers described. She was certain that Rorsak helped her somehow, but after hearing his words, she got worried. Child using his own mana to speed up his own birth was rare situation, But every time this has happened, it would bring excruciating pain to the child's mother and In most cases would kill them both without healers help. But she didn't feel pain that even common childbirth would have.

"But I disregarded that theory as well. Firstly, You didn't feel lots of pain that would certainly occur at these occasions and secondly, I didn't sense any mana. When child uses his own mana to force himself out, he can't conceal it, so detecting this kind of occurance is rather simple. I do not think that your child is normal in terms of magical aptitude. But it may also be just a rare case of childbirth like this so, please, just relax and let me look through the documents of the Ancient Library about this kind of situations." Rorsak said trying to calm down Kara and Aedus. They were scared at first, but soon they sighed in relief.

"Thank you, old man. Thank you for everything you've done to us. I Wish I could ever repay all your services." Said Aedus as he hugged Rorsak with all the strength that he had. Kara just smiled at this scene and looked at her child again. Kari finished eating and now was sleeping peacefully. She hugged Kari with a little more strength and then looked and Rorask who was grinning.

"If you really want to repay me, You can do one thing. When this little brat will grow up, take him to test his Aptitude. If he will be a mage, I want him to study under my wing" Said Rorsak while pointing at sleeping Kari.

"Is this a contract that will kill me if I don't make him test his power?" Said Aedus as he narrowed his eyes.

"Hahahaha. Of course not. I'm just curious at what kind of man he will grow up into. I'm sure Kara's child will be a genious at magic, so I won't lose my chance to help him. And besides, If there is an even slightest chance that he will become a Magus, I will do everything in my power to aid him!" Said Rorask as he smiled again. Then he and Aedus had a dinner, after which Rorsak left.

Aedus carefully transported his wife and son to the bedroom and let them rest. He layed his daughter down in the next bedroom with 2 beds. The second bed was for Kari and it was made month ago, but Aedus temporarily took possesion of it.

He layed down while looking at the ceiling. He had a loving wife, beautiful daughter and son that he needed to take care of. He smiled at the thought of him training his son in the future in swordsmanship. And soon he fell asleep with the thoughts of himself with his family.
