🩸Chapter One: The Curse of Bloodline

"Why?"

"Why?!"

"You've already taken everything from me. My wealth, my power, my looks, even my TimeHolder..."

"Why would you take away my son too?"

"Abalagu, my son, where are you?"

"It's been 8 years, 2 months, and 5 days..."

"Abalagu, you've grown into a 12-year-old boy now. You must be handsome, strong, and smart..."

"You're my son, you must be the most remarkable boy in the world!"

"Why haven't I heard from you at all?"

"Has that woman abandoned you?"

"Has that woman killed you?"

"No, no, no, even if Abalagu is her own son, she wouldn't harm him..."

"Would she really not...?"

"She never loved Abalagu, she only bore him to steal everything from me."

"When Abalagu was two, he accidentally fell from the shelf and broke his right shinbone. The little boy crawled to her, crying, hoping his mother would help him. But she ignored him as if he were invisible, letting her own son cry with his injured leg. If it weren't for the servants arriving, I don't know how long Abalagu would have cried on the ground."

"It was then that I began to suspect she didn't love this child, and she had never loved me either..."

"Unfortunately, I realized it too late. It wasn't until I drank the poisoned wine she handed me that I fully woke up."

"You took my wealth, I don't care."

"You burnt half of my face, I don't care."

"You took the TimeHolder that everyone desires, I agreed."

"But why take Abalagu?"

"Why take away my beloved son?!"

"I won't lose Abalagu, I can't lose Abalagu!"

"I can recreate Abalagu with my own bloodline!"

"But what about the absence of that wicked woman's genes?"

"It doesn't matter, her impure bloodline is better off gone! This time Abalagu will have a purer body."

"Abalagu, don't worry. Dad will be reunited with you soon."

"Dad has kept your rabbit doll very well."

"Haven't you always wanted to see that prehistoric animal called a panda? When you are born again, Dad will create a panda for you."

"Don't worry, even without the TimeHolder, Dad can turn the rabbit into a panda."

"As long as there is that magical incantation, Dad can recreate another TimeHolder."

"That stupid woman thought she had taken everything. She didn't know that without that incantation, the TimeHolder would not function properly."

"Only those with my blood know that incantation. It's our family's curse, as well as our family's superpower. No one else can fully harness this power except us!"

"Damn, why did the egg produce a super male, this error is too strange!"

"Why was a female born, I had it all planned out?"

"No!!! Why did the body decay!"

"The genes collapsed!"

"What is this? Pointed ears!"

"Damn, is this a vampire?"

"These sharp teeth, this is simply an orc!"

"No! This isn't human, it's a lizard!"

"Why? Why can't the genes stabilize?"

"What did that bitch feed me? Why is my bloodline so chaotic?"

"No! What are these monsters, their genes are out of control!"

"The incantation, what is the incantation? Why can't I remember it?"

"Bitch! I curse you! I swear by the blood of the Egger family, anyone with my blood, whether human or not, will take your head. If anyone dares not to aim their weapon at you, it will turn into..."

...

"A panda rabbit!"

"Gulaba pengba Pengba, Gulaba Pengbapeng..."
