He was standing on a white circular platform, one completely filled with rune circuits. Surrounding this circular platform were towering buildings. Leo was about to investigate, but stopped when he heard a soft voice.

"Foreign human detected!"

"Scanning!"

"Scan complete!"

"Detected a member of the Redfrost family!"

"Initiating download protocol!"

"Download complete!"

This all happened in no more than a few seconds which stunned Leo. He had never heard of such an advanced city in Rendoro, much more a spatial ring that can fit one.

As if to surprise Leo even more, a half transparent and blue panel appeared before his very eyes. Which came from his star-link.

[Please state your name.]

His eyes widened in surprise but he still swiftly answered, "My name is Leonardo Ni-" but he was interrupted by another panel which cut him off.

[Welcome to Fidra City Leonardo!]

[Opening Main Menu as a basic test!]

[3, 2, 1!]

After this panel appeared, no more than five panels materialized a few moments later.

Leo's curiosity was aroused as he tapped on [Profile Status], he wanted to know what information the A.I. had of him.

Leo thought that the A.I. failed in making a proper identification on him the moment he read his name, but he could not help but rub his eyes as he continued to read.

When he confirmed that he read everything correctly, he was so confused that he asked himself aloud.

"What's a bloodline? I'm human, so why would I have the blood of a dragon?"

As if to answer his question, a panel materialized in front of him.

[Your bloodline was properly scanned and it was detected to have been the blood of an Ice Dragon, there can be no mistakes as you only recently awakened.]

He took a while to understand what the A.I. told him, 'I don't really know what this awakening means, but it seems to be the reason I have this powerful sounding bloodline.'

He came back to reality and asked, "What is this awakening you spoke of?"

[An awakening is the process of purifying one's bloodline. To do so, a person must arouse their dormant and tainted bloodline thus the term bloodline awakening was born. The process can be painful as the bloodline will try to remove its imperfections for it to finally become what it once was.]

'So that's what happened, and here I thought he was sadistic.'

After thinking for a while, Leo decided to ask more questions.
