《System of Gods and Devils》Chapter 8: The Letter

"Roger. We are sorry for leaving you without saying anything. I just can't say goodbye to your face. We have to leave you guys alone because somebody is after us and we cannot take you guys with us and expose you to danger. Don't worry about our lives, even if they caught us they won't kill us. They are going after your grandfather by taking us as bait. So don't worry. Live your lives well. I am happy for all these years by having you as our son. I love you. Bye."
Yours always loving Mother
"Stay with your sister. You would be safe in your school. I don't know when we're able to meet you again, just promise me you won't do any reckless thing and follow us. And I always wanted to say one thing to you that, your mother and I know that you have been conscious about the reincarnation and having us as a parent. Just because you have your past life memories does not mean you're not our son. You're my flesh and blood and always be the son I'm proud of. And I left the ring to your use. Inside the ring there will be a box, you can open the box only if you're strong enough. Inside the box, there is an explanation for everything. And your sister already knows about our situation, just tell her we love her too. Bye."
Father
This was the content written on the Letter. The letter was stained with teardrops, he knew how his mother should’ve cried while writing this letter. Reading the letter, tears started to form in his eyes. He felt helpless and weak. He knew why his parents never said the situation to him because they thought he was weak and could not cultivate, so they did not want to burden him with worries, unlike his sister. He regrets not starting to develop from the start that he could've helped them in any way, at least they would've told him about the situation from the beginning like his sister. He felt pathetic even though he knew that they did because they love him.
His hands were shaking in anger as he gripped the letter tightly and wiped out his tears, his eyes slowly became cold like an endless void. Without him knowing a dark aura started to seep out of his body, if anyone would've seen him now they would've felt terror from deep of their heart like an instinct regardless of their cultivation bases.

Suddenly Mia popped up beside him, "Roger, why don't you bring the box out from the spatial ring" asked Mia to distract him from his current situation.
Roger Dream nodded and returned back to normal as he took out the box from his spatial ring. He tried to open it, but the box wouldn't even budge a little. Mia took the box from him and opened it with a single flick, inside the box, there were two Snow White Pills and a note.
"My Son and daughter, if you guys are reading, this means you have at least reached Meridian Opening Realm, and I am proud of you. I don't know how many years would've passed in opening this box and I don't know if we are alive or not now.
But as your parents, first I want you to take revenge for our whole clan and us.
Before Roger was born our Dream Clan belonged to the Imperial capital of the Xia Empire and the Yuan country belongs to the farthest reach of the Empire. Even though the Yuan country doesn't come under the Xia Empire, still they can't compare to the mighty Xia Empire. The Xia Empire hasn't invaded because they disdain the Yuan country of its power. The Yuan country is the weakest among the surrounding Xia Empire. The Meridian Opening Stage can be highest in Yuan Country, but in Xia Empire, the Meridian Opening Stage is considered as a mediocre. The Path from Meridian Opening Stage to Sovereign Expert Stage is where many people fail to cross. The Leap from Meridian Opening Stage to Sovereign Expert Stage is very big almost impossible to cross for the most. A single Sovereign Expert Stage can kill a thousand Meridian Opening Stage experts with a single flick that is the difference between two stages.
Only a Clan with Sovereign Expert Stage can be considered as a powerhouse in Xia Imperial Capital.
Our Dream clan was one of the powerhouses of the capital with the Sovereign Expert Stage your Grandfather as the head. Our clan was prosperous with thousands of years of Foundation. On one day your Grandfather acquired a Sovereign King Ascension pill from the Dimensional Ruins of an Ancient Sect. With this Sovereign King Ascension pill, a peak Sovereign Expert Stage can pass their bottleneck to Sovereign King Stage.
But Ou clan found out about this; they are a Clan with 2 Sovereign Expert Stage overseeing them. Breaking through to Sovereign King Stage means becoming the peak power next to Xia Imperial clan.

How can the Ou Clan allow this? So they ambushed your Grandfather and tried to steal the pill. Even though your Grandfather was a peak Sovereign Expert Stage, the Ou clan's two Intermediate Sovereign Expert overwhelmed your Grandfather with their Heaven Tier treasures. We fled with your Grandfather and your grandfather got injured while protecting your mother and us, she was pregnant with you at that time. Also, your father and mother were crippled by Ou Clan's sinister techniques.
To save us your Grandfather acted as bait and helped us escape with our lives. After successfully avoided from Ou clan's chase, we heard that your Grandfather also escaped from the situation with serious injuries. In anger, the Ou clan massacred all our Clan people, and we heard only some of them survived.
Your Grandfather while escaping gave us the pills and helped us escape. Your Grandfather still never contacted us for fear of exposing us. We kept the pills safe for both of you in the future. You can use these pills for breaking through Sovereign Expert Stage from Meridian Opening Stage. The potency of the pills can help you guys reach the Peak Sovereign Expert Stage in one go. If we're alive means we're waiting for both you to rescue us and one day we will rebuild our clan. But we love you guys Regardless.
Was the content written on the note, after reading the note Roger Dream was enraged and became furious and took an oath that he will massacre the whole Ou Clan. In a cave, the ancestor of Ou clan felt a chill down his spine, as he felt like marked by a predator. Roger then took the Snow White Pills and took a sniff, it smelled like a Marshmallow Candy from Earth. His Body had an instinctive urge to swallow both the pills, but still, he kept it closed inside the box.
[*SYSTEM DETECTED HIGH SPIRIT ENERGY PILLS SUITABLE FOR HOST BODY*]

"Wait. What...?" asked Roger Dream in shock as he heard the notification only when the System found a suitable location for him to refine his body at the Scorching Snow Mountains. And that was 6 years ago even Kanna and Mia got shocked by this new function.
He never thought the Sovereign King Ascension pill would be suitable for his body. Won't he explode?
That was the thought going through his mind. Kanna and Mia quietly stood by his side knew what was he thinking and explained.
"Hey, don't worry you won't Explode," said Kanna.
"Hey, didn’t you promise that you won’t read my mind?" asked Roger Dream in anger.
"I didn't read your mind. It's written on your face" said Kanna while giggling.
After her reply, Roger Dream embarrassingly asked about the pill in his hands.
"Didn't you already refined your body till Immortal Jade Body with Yin-Yang Qi? What does a puny Sovereign King Ascension pill would do to your body? Even taking both is like candy for you. In the Upper realm, if you throw these pills in any of the streets even dogs would not lick them" said Kanna arrogantly disdaining the pills.
Hearing her arrogant explanation Roger Dream shook his head asked about its use to him now.
"According to the System calculation, you should be able to Breakthrough to Early Foundation Stage skipping the Spirit Attaining Stage," said Kanna.
"Only that? Didn't I heard that it allows breakthrough from Sovereign Expert Stage to Sovereign King Stage" asked Roger Dream.
"Humph! Did you forget that you're a Yin-Yang cultivator? Refining the pill and attaining Foundation Stage itself is good. Don't be greedy. Cultivation is a step by step process and through your comprehension and experience only you should breakthrough. Even if you attain Sovereign Expert Stage in a single step from being Mortal, a weak Meridian Opening Expert can easily kill you. Do you understand? It’s like being a Baby in Adults body." said Kanna.
"Yeah. I understand now" said Roger Dream.
"OK. Now both of you start the process, let me breakthrough to Foundation Stage" asked Roger Dream.
"We can start refining this pill, but even a Supreme Sovereign Stage Expert will die without using a Cultivation Technique while refining. Are you sure want to start refining now?" asked Kanna sinisterly smiling.
"No. Stop the Process," said Roger Dream in flushed tone after seeing her smile.
After that suddenly like a wave of a flash strike his brain. He can feel a surge of information's being loaded on his mind. After a second he found a Yin-Yang Manual in his memories.
"We already wanted to give you this 6 years ago. This seems to be a Standard Cultivation Technique from the System. Just became familiar with this Technique before refining the pills" said Mia.
Nodding his head then Roger Dream sat in a meditative pose and started familiarizing with the manual.
