[The hidden talent of the Individual is Alchemy(HEAVENLY).]
“…” 𝘪𝘳.𝘤𝑜
Alan’s jaw fell to the ground. This was the highest-grade Talent he had seen!
The ones he had seen until now were Normal, Good, Great, Amazing, and Genius…But this seemed to be a few levels above even Genius!
“What is it? Is it bad?”
Asked Alice. Alan’s silence made her think that there was nothing. She had spent all of her life knowing she was untalented, that she was a disgrace to Twilight in a way.
But it was quite the opposite.
“No…It’s…Heavenly.”
Richard raised his brows, he was as confused as Alice right now. Did his daughter have a chance?
“What do you mean?”
He asked, curious. He wanted to know. He wanted to know if there was anything Alice was actually good at, that would help her after his death.
“Alchemy.”
Alan stated…
Alice and Richard raised their brows, happy at the fact that talent was there…no matter how meager it should at least suffice.
But Alan was not down. The next piece of news came down like a lightning bolt.
“The grade is the highest I have ever seen…It’s Heavenly!”
Boom!
Alan used his mana to check once again, maybe he read it wrong…but no.
[The hidden talent of the Individual is Alchemy(HEAVENLY)]
He didn’t read wrong. Even the thread was gold!
This was the highest grade he had seen…
[Supreme Dragon Of Chaos Suleras advises you to use Dragon Eyes on the Spectral Talentscope.]
Ah! That’s right! Dragon eyes can unveil everything about the Spectral Talentscope, even the things the system does not show!
Alan took the glasses off and used the |Dragon Eyes| on them.
He used the skill and revealed the hidden options about it.
[|Dragon Eyes| is being used!]
[Grades: Normal, Good, Great, Amazing, Genius, Extraordinary, Fantastic, Heavenly, Perfection.]
…
…
…
Alan deactivated Dragon’s eyes and stated.
“Alice, You’re extremely talented in Alchemy, your talent grade is the second highest in the spectrum…”
This kind of news came as a shock to her.
What?
I am talented.
But…I am not?
There’s something I’m actually good at? Something that’s also very important in the world of the Awakened? Something like that?
Alchemy..? Something that was extremely desired?
“Haha…That’s great Alice.”
While she was stuck in her state of shock, Richard was happy and laughed.
He truly was ecstatic, now she could prove the heirs of other families wrong! She would still be safe even if he died or was unable to protect her. Alice was currently being protected by her father’s status. Some guild members didn’t like her, Although the Elders were on her side…who knows what would happen to her if something happened to Richard. He was glad she had something which gave her worth. Something not related to him.
A tear slowly made its way down her cheek.
To someone who had lived their whole life thinking they were worthless…Something like this was bound to cause this kind of reaction.
Richard had a wide smile on her face. Alan also cheered her up.
“Yeah! You’re amazing! Now just be careful of Maxwell…who knows what schemes he’s gonna pull out his ass when he learns of this.”
He warned as well. Maxwell already scared him. The moment he found out that the Spectral Talentscope didn’t have any limits to how much it could be used…He already told Alan that they could profit by having people pay to see if they have any talents.
“Well, I’m gonna go to sleep.”
Alan thought it would be best to leave the father and daughter alone at this time.
Besides, his mind was tired and he felt a little dull as well. It would be better to rest.
He should let the two have their moment of happiness and go rest.
The Academic Convergence…No.
The Tower Of Trials is near.
************
[Day of the Academic Convergence.]
The day had finally arrived. All students, spectators, and important figures of the Capitol, Association, guilds, and World government were present. The roars of the spectators were intense. In a colosseum.
“Yeah!”
“This year is gonna be amazing!”
Amidst a sea of eager spectators, the colossal amphitheater stands as a testament to both human ambition and the thirst for challenge. The air is electric with anticipation, a symphony of murmurs and excited whispers that weave through the labyrinthine tiers of stone seating. The sun beats down, casting a radiant spotlight upon the heart of this grand spectacle: the Tower of Trials.
Its light clashed against the black stone of The Tower, but strangely enough, the light did not reflect. It was instead absorbed by the tower. It seemed the tower didn’t even allow the Sun to triumph over it.
It was not that big, about the width 50 meters wide…But it held entire worlds within it, each a trial of its own. The tower was the main attraction of the Academic convergence. Various stadiums, each made of incredibly dense material. These stadiums were there to have fights and other such events.
But without a doubt…Everyone’s attention was focused on the tower. Why wouldn’t it be?
The Tower rises from the very core of the arena, its imposing structure a mosaic of stone and metal, reaching toward the heavens like a sentinel of time. Its walls bear the weight of countless ages, each brick seemingly imbued with the stories of those who dared to ascend its heights. The Tower’s surface shimmers with a patina that hints at its storied past, scars from battles long fought and challenges conquered. A Dark but epic tale!
“Welcome all to the Academic Convergence once again!”
Harrison Soubuelle, the leader of the Association and also the one who was ranked number 1 in the World Hero rankings appeared in the sky, the cameras focused on him and large screens displayed his entire figure to the world, both in the colosseum and on Television.
“This year will be exciting! Not only do we have exceptional talents from Shield, Eden, and Hero Academy participating, but the other academies also are not far behind. The first spatial mage of humanity, the one who defeated a demonic marquis, The Void Predator, Alan Peccator, The Emperor of Flame, Ragus Drakmor, And the Sword of Darkness, Kurosaki Ren are all participating this time, along with other students who don’t fall far behind!”
He stated the names and nicknames of the First year rank 1 student of Shield, Eden, and Hero Academy respectively. The top three academies’ strongest first years!
“But…”
The world focused its attention on Harrison.
“It isn’t just the first years you should be paying attention to…Have you already forgotten about the hero of the previous year? The one who triumphed over the 29th floor and the one who came back stronger than ever? Have you forgotten Daniel?!”
Truly, he knew how to rile the world up.
“Yeah! Beat the 30th floor this time!”
“GO DANIEL!”
Why wouldn’t they praise him? He was the one who shook the entire world in the previous Academy convergence!
“That’s right! Daniel Khorsch is back! And he’s determined to knock the tower down! Cheer for him!”
“DANIEL!”
“DANIEL!”
“DANIEL!”
The air quivered. No…The entire city shook when they cheered!
Daniel, Khorsch, The Third year ranked first of Shield and the Student Council President! Alan’s superior and the only student in Shield who Sabrina was sure could defeat Alan.
The one who cleared the 29th floor of the tower, the one who won every event in the previous year. The one who even Ezra didn’t hunt down. The one who manifested his own domain at his age.
“Daniel…”
Alan muttered he was currently in Twilight’s exclusive area within the Colosseum along with the participants from Twilight as well as their executives.
Alan was the accountant of the Student Council, so he had met Daniel a few times.
Others would think he was prideful but actually, he was humble. Although Alan met him a few times, he had a favorable impression of him. .𝒎
And he was one of the few in the shield who Alan respected for his strength. A gentle giant would fit him.
He was incredibly handsome, possessed an A-rank charm, and had a fanbase as big as an army. Fans who were actually ready to die for him. He was extremely embarrassed of this fact.
Alan chuckled a little when he was reminded of the times Daniel was embarrassed because of his image.
It was fun.
“Now…We all know that the main event all of you want to see is the Tower Of Trials and Battle Tournament but…”
But?
Alan and the rest of the world turned their attention to Harrison, they were confused.
But?
The Tower of Trials, where people challenge the tower, and The Battle tournament where one versus-one matches are held are the most popular events…but was there something else that could compete with those events?
“We have another event for you all! Something bound to make you believe in the myths and stories you heard as a child! A Myth versus a Genius of today. A Myth of old versus a new legend!”
Alan and the rest were confused…But Alan’s jaw dropped when he saw who entered the stage…It was not only him, major figures of the world had the same reaction.
“What?!”
