[You've awakened a Trait]
[Trait: Infinite Adaptation]
***
Caden was overwhelmed with complex emotions, joy, excitement, sadness, and many more.
His excitement and joy were understandable but his sadness came from his depths.
If he had obtained something as priceless as this. Would the Purpleman Race suffer extinction in his past life?
No, he would have saved his Purpleman Race.
He would have lived his mundane life of luxury in this new world he transmigrated into.
"To think my death got me such a fortuitous encounter," He muttered, his heart serene despite the pressure.
His gaze fixed on the transparent screen, he took his time to go through every single information.
He went through everything more than ten times already.
In his previous life, he awakened an innate skill known as Frost Life, which was acquired after he passed the Awakening Ceremony.
And because that skill was an E-rank skill, he lost his chance of competing with his brothers for the throne.
Too many political schemes, he couldn't bear it, so he dropped out of the succession race.
After his father died. His elder brother became the ruler of the Morningstar Kingdom, but it was only when his brothers were assassinated by the Redmen Empire.
That was when he took over and cemented his reign over the Morningstar Kingdom.
But in the end, even the Morningstar Kingdom fell.
If the Red Continent could destroy the Purple Continent. What is a mere Morningstar Kingdom they couldn't destroy?
But he knew how they succeeded.
Chief Advisor Benjamin Ortega. In ten years, he will be the source of the Morningstar Kingdom's destruction.
Caden clenched his fist with a smile "With these skills, I don't have to drop out of the succession race"
"If I can become the King of Morningstar in the near future. I can influence and create arrangements to save this continent from Emperor Zeraith"
Caden concluded, but suddenly an idea flashed through his mind, "Or can I assassinate Emperor Zeraith?" He asked. His eyes shone with brilliance.
But soon he shook his head, disagreeing with his own idea "Emperor Zeraith may still be young but he's after all the prince of an Empire"
"His influence is still strong, so I can't possibly kill him even with these skills," Caden sighed.
"But I still have the advantage. I regressed twenty years back into the past, I know the incoming future" He consoled himself.
He hurriedly left his chambers afterwards. He had to make his way into the Battle Arena to greet his father.
Every morning, King Alex Ryder brings his five sons into the Battle arena to train them and evaluate their growth.
Caden, who was busy with the newly acquired system, was already late.
As he walked through the hallway, he was greeted by the guards and the maids whom he came across.
Within a few minutes, he arrived at his destination.
Before leaving his chambers, he had already changed his morning pajamas, putting on his training uniform.
***
Caden walked into the battle arena to see his four senior brothers already training. Hundreds of knight captains and higher-tier knights were already gathered.
The moment he stepped into the arena, everyone's attention drifted towards him.
Including the King.
Caden's purple hair fluttered with the wind as he approached his father with a warm smile.
His movements came to a halt, and he bowed his head respectfully before his father. "Greetings, my king, your noble son pays his respect to u," Caden spoke out.
King Alex was sitted on a throne prepared for him beforehand. Standing besides him was his chief advisor.
Benjamin Ortega!
Benjamin Ortega was dressed in his butler's black suit. Having a Mana Convergence Stage of a Grand Mage, with his purple hair and purple eyes, his facial features were that of an old man who's in his mid sixties.
For a second, he locked eyes with Caden but to his suprise. The eyes of Caden was filled with animosity.
King Alex nodded while stroking his purple beard. "You're late, son, why?" King Alex was calm with his question.
Alex Ryder, a Sword Level, Sword Great Grandmaster and a Mana Convergence Stage Arch Mage is renowned even amongst generals in the Purple Continent.
Ranking sixth in the Purple Continent top 150 most powerful entities in the Purple Continent.
Known to be ruthless and domineering, having wild temperament but...
This is his son after all.
His flesh and blood, even though he can't be lenient all the time. He can't be too harsh on his sons.
Caden bowed his head once again. "I apologise for my unruly behavior, my king, I woke up late," Caden answered.
"I'll accept any punishment," Caden added. One of his brothers, Jerald Ryder, scoffed at Caden.
"It seems this brat thinks the Morningstar Kingdom is a joke. Who are you that you can sleep and wake up all you like?" Jerald sneered.
The rest of his brothers glared at Caden with murderous intent. If it were before, Caden would have been frightened.
But this is a Caden with twenty years of knowledge, his fighting prowess isn't like before.
Even in his past life, he was infamously known across the Red Continent as the Ghost of Purple.
With his innate skill: Frost Life.
He slaughtered so many Red soldiers until he was plotted against and captured by the Red Empire.
Caden smiled gracefully at his brother "I apologize for my unruly behavior, and I hope I receive your punishment"
Caden said, his smile never faded as he continued, "But big brother Jerald, I've been wondering for some time…." Caden paused.
Jerald's lips curled faintly "Oh? What have you been worried about?" Jerald asked with his arms folded.
Caden softly exhaled "I know I haven't gone through my awakening ceremony yet and I haven't awakened a skill"
"But I've awakened my mana core and I can use mana properly even if my aptitude is low," Caden said.
Jerald quickly interuppted with a snort "Are you trying to confess how pathetic you are?" He mockingly asked.
But Caden shook his head, still smiling warmly. His actions shocked the knights, his brothers, and even his father.
It's quite common that Caden is the useless and good-for-nothing successor of the Morningstar Kingdom.
Caden softly exhaled "I don't think my abilities are useless but you see, I received some battle inspirations in my sleep"
"And I'd like to put it to use in reality, so big brother Jerald…"
"Why don't we have a battle spar today?" Caden's eyes gleamed. His words shocked everyone, it was unbelievable.
"Caden initiated a battle spar himself?"
"Isn't he the same coward who has always been running away from battle sparring?"
"What is he planning?"
"Did he truly receive an inspiration?"
Whispers echoed across the space. Knights whispered and minutes amongst themselves.
But none could interfere. Even though King Alex had his arms folded, he found this thing interesting.
No one understood what was going on in the mind of Caden Ryder.
