Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 3

Like that, month after month passed and little Yasenia was about to be one year old. This birthday is one of the most important dates because the child will be able to reveal his or her body’s constitution with a single ritual. Depending on this, a person will either be riddled with difficulties in their cultivation path or have a smooth ascension through the ranks.

Little Yasenia was running through the corridor with her tail behind swinging from side to side and her shoes making a ‘dadada’ sound. Every maid that saw her would involuntarily reveal a small smile.

When little Yasenia turned one corner, she saw a tall woman with long black hair, and she exclaimed with her milky voice, like a crisp bell, “Mommy!”

The elegant woman turned around, and her ever-cold-looking expression softened. She crouched down to catch the little bullet running towards her and wrapped her in her embrace, “Yasenia, didn’t I tell you not to run! What if you fall….”

The little meat bun scrunched her doll-like face and answered, grumbling, “how can I fall running at that little speed! Mommy, you are being overprotective!”

Tatyana was stumped and thought to herself, ‘Is she truly a one-year-old child? How can she be so… developed? ‘

But… thinking about the 90 years of pregnancy… ‘To be honest, it would worry me more if she were normal.’

After thinking that, she gently answered, “What have you been doing recently, Yassy?”

“I was watching uncle Richard train the guards!”

Then with a little laugh, she said, “They are so clumsy, and uncle Richard always beats them up!”

Tatyana answered with a little frown, “Aren’t you a little young to see combat training?”

Yasenia looked up and thought, her little face turning serious, ‘Extremely adorable!’

That was the thought of Tatyana and of every maid that was present. Little Yasenia then tilted her head while asking cutely and wagging her tail.”Mommy, you are right. I need to grow a little more! Can you teach me to read at least?”

Of course, this was a critical hit for everyone. It is clear that if the mother didn’t agree, some maids would teach her in secret even if they had to be punished! Tatyana answered, “Sure, let us read every time before bed until you fall asleep. What do you think, little meat bun?”

Little Yasenia’s eyes glittered, and her scaled tail wagged speedily, making her mood clear to everyone. “Mommy, I love you the most!”

And with a big smooch on the cheek, she jumped from her arms and went elsewhere to play. Tatyana smiled like a fool after the smooch. When she recovered, she asked the maids around her where Anna and Eve were. One of the maids answered respectfully, “The other day, some people tried to kidnap little miss, so at the moment, they are catching all the people related to them and sending them to the torture rooms.”

Since this was the first time someone had tried to do something like this, although the surface of the mansion looked tranquil like water, every single maid and guard was in a battle-ready mood.

Tatyana looked outside through her window with a face that could freeze even the hottest fire. “Don’t let even the dogs related to this live.”

All the maids answered respectfully, “As the Lady says!” And then retreated.

‘It seems that people have forgotten about me after disappearing some years for giving birth to my little treasure. Let’s see if they remember me after this’ A cold smirk appeared naturally on her face, and her red eyes glowed with the promise of murder.

On the next day, the whole capital of the Moon Empire shuddered because of the cruelty and destruction displayed in one of the Count’s houses. The reason seems to be that they tried to kidnap the child of Countess Tatyana.

Everyone thought that the Royal family would punish her, but they just closed one eye and let it pass, making everyone even more afraid. From then on, the parents of the Moon Empire taught their children about the consequences of offending someone that you should not, with this example.

On the first birthday of little Yasenia, every maid went back and forth with the presents sent by other houses, be it inspecting and seeing what was useful. Although tedious, they did it without complaints because it was the first birthday of their little miss! They wanted to finish fast so that they could attend the revealing ceremony. Tatyana didn’t invite any outsiders. Only the trusted personnel of the house attended.

Sometime later, at dusk, everyone was in the clearing behind the house, a little bit anxious, a little bit eager, and a little bit nervous. Even if their little miss is not suited for cultivation, they will still respect her as much as before because she is the only child of Countess Tatyana, their master. But of course, they wanted the best for her, so they were all a little antsy.

After Tatyana finished putting the formation in the center of the clearing, it was the turn of little Yasenia to step forward. Tatyana spoke gently but firmly, “Yassy, no matter the outcome, mom will love you the same. You just have to go forward to the middle of the formation and put a little drop of blood in the big stone there.”

As Tatyana said, there was a standing roulette-like stone in the middle, having three concentric circles, each with the image of the element they represent. There were basic elements, rare elements, and extremely rare elements.

The basic ones are Water, Fire, Earth, Wood, and Metal.

The rare ones are Nature, Lightning, Glass, Magma, Wind, Ice, Darkness, and Light.

And the extremely rare ones are Sun, Moon, Stars, Death, Life, Space, and Fate.

More elements don’t automatically make you better. Some people have only one element, and others have more than one. For example, if you have contradicting elements like Water and Fire, you will need a body constitution that can carry them, The boiling blood constitution, or the Liquid fire constitution.

This problem is one of the three reasons that only one of every 50 000 people can start the cultivation path. The other reason is that one needs to have a mature body to begin cultivating, and sometimes because of the envy of other people, they kill them before they can mature and start their cultivation path.

The final reason is that to enter the path of cultivation; one must take one tribulation lighting without external help. Forming a dantian and meridians will be impossible if one cannot do this, and these two things are the things that transport and store the energy inside the body.

Little Yasenia advanced without nervousness, her long tail making an S-like pattern while walking. Yasenia was trying to show her confidence and easygoing attitude, but she was the cutest thing alive to the spectators. They were thinking something like, ‘Kyaa! Look at her tail. Isn’t she tempting me to play with her!’

‘I can’t, I can’t, I can’t! I really want to take a bite! Her little serious face is like a milk bun.’

Although she was one year old, she looked closer to a 3~4-year-old.

When Yasenia reached in front of the monument, she bit her little finger with her sharp canines making a bright red drop of blood appear on her fingertip. Although it hurt, she maintained a serious expression making the spectator admire their little miss more and more.

The drop of blood started floating, and a little healing wave passed her finger, healing her. The drop landed in the middle of the roulette and got absorbed. At that moment, one of the elements started shining, while the sky began to change!

The Sun element got lit, and a phantom of the Sun appeared above the mansion, shining brightly with golden radiance.

When everyone was going to start to cheer, the sky began to change again. The Sun moved to the left side of the sky while half of the sky got covered in darkness. Within that darkness, a silver light started to glow, and, in the middle of the night sky, a Full Moon as big as the Sun appeared.

Everyone was stunned. ‘She has two extremely rare elements!?’

Then they sobered up and started to frown. If her constitution isn’t good enough, this will be a big problem. The Sun represents the most powerful Yang, while the Moon represents the most powerful Yin.

If these elements appear simultaneously in someone, it is impossible to start cultivating, and she also has a chance of becoming a cripple!

While everyone was frowning, the phantom in the sky changed again! Everyone opened their eyes, stunned, looking at the white and black light dots that appeared on the whole phantom sky.

A third extremely rare attribute appeared! Be it in the side of the day with blackish lights or the night with white lights. All of them knew what this represented, the endless stars of the firmament.

When all of them finished appearing, the Sun, Moon, and countless stars fired a beam toward the little child in the formation. The sunbeam and the moonbeam collided, and with the help of the star energy, they fused. This created harmony and balance between the three elements around her. When the three elements seemed to have become one and using these as light sources, two sentences appeared atop the roulette, reaching the end of the ritual.

Unique element: [Celestial], everything in the firmament shall become her strength!

Unique constitution: [Celestial Yin and Yang body]. Balance is found after chaos, and chaos is created after balance.
