Chapter 55 Viviana Scarlet
Viviana Scarlet, sixteen years old, the "Sole Divine Heir" of the Scarlet Family, one of the five major families in the Wester Kingdom.
The term "Divine Heir" refers to a person who has undergone "reincarnation," a rarity even in the entire Prison Star world.
Regarding the details of the "reincarnation" method, there is hardly any information or even rumors available to the public.
Although the status of a "Divine Heir" is something to be proud of, no family or power would announce the birth of a Divine Heir until the "inheritance of memories" achieves "complete reincarnation."
Everything related to the Divine Heir is classified as the highest-level confidential matter for each family and power.
In her previous life, Viviana Scarlet was a peerless genius named Phylia Scarlet. She was hailed as the Scarlet Silver Shooting Star, renowned for her remarkable achievements on the battlefield in numerous battles against the Abyssal Empire. Even today, many people still sing praises of her great accomplishments during her lifetime.
However, human life is finite, and time is limited. Phylia Scarle, the unstoppable force, eventually reached the end of her destiny.
While the Abyssal Empire still stood, Phylia Scarle, unwilling to succumb to her fate, utilized all the resources of the Scarle Family to secretly complete the "reincarnation" process.
Before her reincarnation, Phylia Scarle imprinted a soul mark on herself. Afterward, her body decomposed and transformed into the essence of this world, ultimately precipitating into the form of a gemstone.
This gemstone is the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia."
Phylia Scarle died with the birth of the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia." Several years later, she was reborn as an infant in the womb of a woman with the Scarlet Family lineage.
As proof of her reincarnation, the infant bore Phylia's soul mark, an unmistakable and unforgeable symbol.
Upon her successful rebirth, the infant was bestowed the title of "Divine Heir," but this was not a cause for celebration among those present.
To ensure the secrecy of the Scarlet Family, the higher-ups orchestrated a grand scheme. They eliminated the midwife, maidservants, informed guards, and even the baby's biological parents, attributing their deaths to a sudden and devastating fire.
In the same year, the Lady of Scarlet gave birth to a daughter named Viviana Scarlet.
No one knew for certain if the Lady of Scarlet was truly pregnant, or if an innocent baby had been killed that day. What everyone did know was that the Scarlet Family had gained a charming and innocent little girl.
And this little girl, always believed that her father and mother were the Lord and Lady of Scarlet.

Though Viviana Scarlet was the reincarnation of Phylia Scarlet, she did not possess Phylia's memories and abilities. In fact, she was no different from any other infant, except for one thing:
Viviana Scarlet was the only person in the entire Prison Star World capable of wielding the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia."
The moment Viviana Scarlet touched the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia," the combat techniques and experiences from her past life were automatically infused into her body. This meant that while other children needed to practice their movements hundreds or thousands of times, she succeeded in a single attempt.
Thus, while other infants were still learning to crawl and walk, Viviana Scarlet was already wavering a toy sword.
As she continued to grow, the gap between Viviana Scarlet and her peers widened. By the time she turned six, only two of the Scarlet Family's most powerful elders could guide her in matters of "techniques."
Of course, in order to conceal her identity as the Divine Heir, these guidance sessions were conducted in secret.
At the age of seven, Viviana Scarlet awakened her combat occupation as a swordsman. From that day forward, the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia" acquired an additional purpose for her—an inexhaustible reservoir of magical power.
However, this description is relative to Viviana Scarlet's current magical consumption ability. The magical power within the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia" is ultimately limited, albeit with an exceptionally vast supply.
When Viviana Scarlet turned eight, the two elders began quietly taking turns bringing her to the front lines. Completely undetected by outsiders, when Viviana Scarlet reached the age of fifteen, she had already undergone two breakthroughs in her "occupation tier" and become a level 51 magic swordsman.
Viviana, from her early years, dutifully adhered to the admonitions of her parents and two elders. She never sought to assess her own strength or disclose her occupation and skill information to others. Furthermore, she refrained from revealing her true abilities in the presence of others.
If no unforeseen events occur, Viviana's life will continue to progress within layers of concealed protection, steadily enhancing her capabilities. It is her aspiration to reach a level comparable to her previous incarnation, Phylia Scarlet, at which point she can unlock the seal of the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia" and inherit Phylia Scarlet's memories and powers in their entirety, resulting in a significant leap in strength.
At that time, the Scarlet Family will proudly proclaim to the outside world the reincarnation of their revered ancestor, Phylia Scarlet. The Scarlet Family will then rise to prominence as an extraordinary and elite family within the scope of the Prison Star World.
·
However, as fate would have it, unexpected events can transpire.
A year and a half ago, the main city of the Scarlet Family fell victim to a nocturnal raid by an unknown organization, which stole a substantial amount of equipment and treasures, including the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia."
Faced with such a great humiliation to their own main city, the Scarlet Family was unable to voice the incident publicly. They dared not let the outside world know of the existence of the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia" and thus mobilized internal personnel to search far and wide. However, the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia" was only referred to as a precious pigeon blood red gem to conceal its true identity.
Viviana shares an innate connection with the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia." Occasionally, she can sense the gem's whereabouts. Regrettably, this sensation is unstable, intermittent, and imprecise. In reality, it is akin to searching for a needle in a haystack.
Subsequently, at great expense, the Scarlet Family managed to locate the elusive divination rabbit spirit, Nevina, known for her exceptional professional ethics. Finally, they received a prophecy regarding the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia."
— The "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia" will appear in Gudetown, within the territory of Lord Azure Lizard, in the Wildforest Kingdom, on May 15th, 187.
To avoid arousing suspicion, the Scarlet Family refrained from making a grand spectacle. Given that the time and location were known, the focus was on quality rather than quantity.
Publicly, Viviana, accompanied by her attendant Albert, will patiently wait in Gudetown, keeping a vigilant eye out for any signs.
Covertly, the Scarlet Family's two most powerful elders have firmly set their sights on the entire town of Gudetown.

Returning to the present, after departing from Luca Village, Viviana swiftly arrived at Luca Forest. Magic energy materialized into a slender, silver-white sword in the air. Viviana closed her eyes, skillfully maneuvering these "companions" as they gracefully traversed through the forest. Before long, she caught sight of the silhouette of the young hunter.
