Lily instantly rushed over to Vivian and the Dragon Queen held her daughter's tiny little hand as they both walked in to the castle, but Aster remained still and Vivian noticed this, so she stopped and turned around to lock gaze with him.
Aster looked up and slowly opened his mouth to speak. "You promise to answer every single one of my questions once we've arrived at your castle, but we're here now and you still haven't done that."
"I know love, and I will, but first we must eat." Vivian replied with the same charming smile on her face.
She was pleased to see that Aster was slowly beginning to feel comfortable while staring at her.
At first, he looked confused when he noticed her and that was understandable, but then he became worried and scared, especially after he discovered she was a Dragon Queen.
And to be honest, Vivian felt she shouldn't have revealed that part so soon especially with the effects it had on him.
But when Aster noticed how Vivian had protected him from the pterodactyls and now Sara, a part of him had instinctively become more relaxed with her and Vivian was pleased to see this.
After all, hurting him or Lily was the last thing on her mind and if anyone were to think of doing such a thing to them, then they would be melted down instantly by her hot lava.
Knowing this, Vivian maintained a calm and relaxed smile on her face as she called out to Aster. "Astaroth, I want you to know that I intend to keep my word on answering all of your questions, so once we've all eaten, you are free to ask me whatever you want, okay dear?" Vivian brought her hand forward and beckoned him to come closer.
And since Lily was already holding one of her hand, Vivian wanted Aster to do the same with the other so that she could have the two of them walking by her side as she takes them into her castle.
But with everything Aster had seen and experienced so far, Vivian knew that it wouldn't be surprising to see Aster still keeping a safe distance from her so she wasn't really expecting him to hold her hand, still she decided to try but she knew she wouldn't force him to do what he didn't want to do.
However, to her surprise, Aster willingly walked up to her to hold her hand and Vivian was left speechless.
In fact, she instantly got filled with a huge feeling of happiness and Vivian's wide smile became even more dazzling.
Meanwhile, Lily couldn't help but smile as well and she poked her head out from Vivian's side to flash her big brother a cute and innocent smile.
Seeing this, Aster couldn't help but feel touched due to all these warmth and little strange feeling of happiness he kept receiving from both ladies.
It felt strange and alien to him but it was something he knew he could definitely get used to and he subconsciously smiled in return, causing both Lily and Vivian to rejoice internally as they receive their first display of acceptance from Aster.
"Alright guys, let's go in." Vivian said and Lily nodded with a smile as the three of them entered the castle.
But as they walked into the castle together, a blue screen suddenly popped up in front of Aster with a few strings of words displayed on the screen.
'Huh?'
[Congratulations to the host, your first smile to your mother and sister has successfully helped you to unlock The Happy Dragon Life System]
[With this system, the host can easily adapt and grow stronger in the supernatural world but all you have to do is to make your family and the loved ones you care about happy.]
[Doing this would instantly reward you with skills, draconic bloodline abilities and attributes points, allowing you to easily and successfully blend in with the demons and supernatural beings around you.]
[Also, family members and loved ones having a similar or lower power rank to you will instantly receive a small amount of benefits every time their happiness level increase.]
'Huh?'
'What the .....?'
'Wait a minute.'
'Isn't this a...?'
'Yep, it's definitely a system.'
'So, I'm having a system?'
'I'm having a frigging system?!' Aster exclaimed internally in his mind as he stared at the blue screen in front of him while walking along with Vivian and Lily by his side.
The smile on his lips slowly broadened because Aster had read a couple of novels and mangas in the past, so he knew what a system was.
But he never could have imagined himself obtaining one in real life.
'But wait a minute, if I'm having a system right now, doesn't it mean I died and somehow got reincarnated?' Aster assumed as he stared at his little arms and feet.
'Hmm, I guess that would explain why I look younger right now, unlike the twenty-seven year old appearance I once had a few hours ago.'
'But then again, I don't think I should easily conclude on the idea that I had been reincarnated.'
'After all, the Dragon Queen promised to answer all of my questions so I'm guessing she knows something that I don't.'
'So, let's wait to see and hear what she has to say.' Aster came to a conclusion on what he would be doing later and so he decided not to think too much about his death and instead he returned his gaze back to the screen hovering in front of him.
'Hmm, so she's really a dragon queen huh,'
'And I guess that would make me a dragon prince.' Aster uttered internally when he noticed the part where the system had mentioned he would be rewarded with draconic bloodline abilities and he couldn't help but feel excited about the idea of actually having the abilities of a dragon.
'This is so cool.'
'But if I'm being honest.'
'All these just feels too good to be true.'
'In fact, it feels like I'm in a dream right now cause who wouldn't think they're dreaming when they had suddenly been whisked away from their realm and brought into a supernatural world to live as a dragon prince.'
'Yeah, I'm sure anyone would feel the same way'
'But the most exciting part about this dream is the fact that I'll be having a system by my side that'll help me grow stronger in this new world and all I will have to do to make this happen is to simply make my new family happy?'
'Just how cool is that?'
'Yep, this is honestly too amazing to be called a dream.'
'Nope, I don't want it to be a dream.'
'Please, don't be a dream.' Aster quietly prayed in his heart before noticing a new screen popping up in front of him.
Due to the excitement within him, Aster unwittingly held his mother's hand a bit harder and Vivian noticed this.
Aster also realized what he had done so he swiftly flashed Vivian a smile, hoping it won't make her to question why he had suddenly held her so tightly
And it worked because Vivian smiled back before returning her gaze back to the path in front of them.
Meanwhile, Lily noticed how the two has smile to each other and she warmly smiled as well and a new screen popped up in front of Aster.
[Congratulations to the host! Your first smile to your new mother and sister has successfully increased their happiness level.]
[Your mother and sister's happiness level has successfully leveled up from Level 0 to Level 1, allowing you to receive +2 attribute points to all current attributes.]
[The host has also received his first dragon bloodline trait, would you like to take a look at it?]
"What?"
