He woke up and let out a soft sigh, "Mhmm~," as his eyelids fluttered open to reveal two deep athyst eyes. He saw three magnificent beauties staring at him with affection and a hint of worry.
"Mom, sisters?" He inquired, perplexed; the last ti he rembered, he was in the dark room, and when the light ca to his rescue, ending the dark era in that room, he had passed out from excruciating pain.
"Baby~ are you feeling okay? Does it hurt anywhere?" Emberly was no longer giving him the lap pillow and instead sat in bed with his sisters.
"Yeah?" To be sure, he tried moving and stretching his body a little. "Aside from having a lot of mana and my body being much stronger, yeah, I am fine," he said.
"Aw, that's so good to hear!" "Look at you now, all grown up," she said, pinching his cheeks. You're a man now!" Today marked his coming of age, and after his awakening, he was no longer considered a child by the rest of the world.
"Yeah, he is all grown up now, so stop acting like he is a one-year-old, and let us get down to business!" This was getting on Aurelia's nerves.
"Do not mind her rudeness, Mother; she is only jealous!" Mother and son exchanged chuckles.

Without further ado, Pyris told them what had transpired, aside from the Goddess's Blessings. They discussed the elents he had awakened, and despite their insistence that he show them, he persuaded them to do so after they were done here.
He even divulged his unique dragon trait.
Everyone in House Obsidian would awaken a unique trait, more akin to the type of dragon they were. Aurelia, for example, had awakened as a Death Dragon, and Anastasia was a Life Dragon; for his mother, he had no idea.
"So you're saying you're a Lust Dragon!" Pyris nodded at Anastasia; they looked at him as though he was so kind of wild animal in a zoo.
"I knew those looks would bring no good!" This did not sit well with Aurelia, for so reason.
"So you admit I'm handso?" Pyris seized the opportunity to tease her.
"Never said that; feel free to think whatever you like!" She averted her gaze.
There has never been a dragon like that in history, not in our family or any other family. All dragons are known for their sexual appetite but dragon awakening as a Lust Dragon? That's unheard of!" This was sothing Emberly was also considering keeping under wraps, at least until Pyris could defend himself.
"What abilities did you get!" He gazed at Aurelia for a considerable amount of ti before responding.
"Eye Of Death," They all rose on their feet, looking at the monster in shock. "and my lust abilities, which I'm ain't willing to share!"
"What?" Pyris asked, suddenly realizing that they were hardly even noticing his last ability.
"You ntioned that you possess the Eye of Death ability?" Pyris nodded despite Aurelia's slight skepticism.
"But that doesn't seem right; all your eyes seem pretty much normal to ! That's not how it's supposed to be!" Anastasia turned to face her, looking deeply into his eyes, but she noticed no change.
"Alright, I do possess the ability; my body simply cannot handle using it at this ti." He couldn't tell them it was sealed, so he opted for another explanation. Since the beginning, only one person has ever awakened this ability—Lucy!
"And she was the first recorded Death Dragon because of that ability, she was more terrifying!" Emberly looked at her young daughter in pity.
Aurelia desired one thing above anything: that ability; as a dragon of death, she would beco even stronger if she would awaken it.
"Don't look at like that!" Although disappointed that she didn't get it, it was still good that her brother did. At the very least, she will get to see it in action soday!
"And my brother has greater potential than I do!" It was evident to all of them that she was not feeling well.
[Ding! The Goddess has heard your plea and granted you a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity! Do you wish to pass on your sealed ability to your sister?
Rember, you lose it forever!!] Pyris did not hesitate, and he was overjoyed at the prospect, imdiately agreeing.
He already had too much.
'I will pay tenfold, Goddess!' Unaware of his actions, he had taken an oath with his words.
"Wait, everyone!" "Close your eyes," Pyris yanked Aurelia toward him abruptly. And she did, but in a perplexed manner.
Pyris drew closer and touched her forehead with him, "Are you trying to comfort ? It is not working, I am telling you, and it is making even angrier!" She remained there regardless of what he was doing.
"System transfer!' Dark energy emanated from his forehead, montarily darkening the room for a split second before it entered Aurelia's forehead.
She fell into his chest and passed out instantly.
"Huff, Huff!" With a cold sweat trickling down her back, Anastasia sat panting on the ground.
"Sister?" Pyris called her as he lay Aurelia on the bed.
"I-I just faced death itself!" She said in a terrified tone, but she did not bother to explain even if they asked because she knew they would not get it.
"But what just happened, did you..."
"Yes, it's one of my abilities, but it was a one-ti use, so I used it to give the Eye Of Death to Aur here!" The two won were flabbergasted by the revelation.
He was surprising them endlessly.
"Such a thing is possible? And you used to fulfill your sister's deepest desire? "Thank you, son; I will not ask why, but thank you," Emberly said as she gave Pyris a tight hug. Perhaps Aur will open up and lead a normal life after this." Her daughter was cold and a shut-in.
"I hope so too," he returned her hug, "Mother, you do not need to thank ; I have everything I could possibly ask for." So what if it's an overpowered ability, I will trade it for Aur's happiness if need be!"
"So smooth!" Anastasia chuckled.
"Annie, I am being sincere!"
"Right!" She just laughed it off, "Will you now show us the abilities, please!"
"Aurelia will wake up first!" He declined her advances.
"I am!" It was Aurelia, with her icy voice.
