Arran was on the road along with Charmy and Eris.
The three had just finished with miss Freya's class for some time now and they were wearing casual clothes and not the training attire that they would usually wear for training.
The three of them had taken some time after miss Freya's class to wait for Arran to settle down from the side effects of testing one of miss Freya's new concoctions, still, Arran's face could still be seen to be a little blue from the concoction.
Arran and the two girls were making their way down the street as Arran took careful sips of the remedial medicine that miss Freya had prepared for Arran to take after each session and this was the only thing Arran was grateful for since if it were not for this remedial medicine, Arran doubted that he would have been able to continue at all.
The place Charmy and Eris were taking Arran for their 'date' was a mystery to Arran but since they were in the lead the only thing that Arran had to do
'Was there anything new?' Arran thought.It was almost like he had called it in advance that there would be another group of seven among the Aeth who held significant importance to the race and truly there was.There was not much enthusiasm in Arran as he asked, "These seven chosen, how exactly are they selected to guard the seven treasures?"Eris answered Arran, "Well to be selected as a chosen there are a lot of requirements to be met before one can have a chance of being selected. These requirements include talent, constitution, background, and a few more that the royal families meticulously screen through before selecting potential candidates.""But in the end, the final decision on who among the nominees would become the chosen guardians of the seven treasures would be left entirely up to the seven treasures themselves. The royal families are only responsible for screening the potential candidates."Charmy also interjected here, "You should al
If one's surprise was measured as a factor on the scale of one to ten, then Arran's level of surprise would just be shy of reaching ten... that was how surprised Arran was.Arran had always known that Eris and Charmy came from a very remarkable background and he would not have been surprised as he currently was even if they had told him that they were simply from the royal family since that was one of his initial guesses.In fact, over the course of his stay at the academy, Arran had almost already figured out the backgrounds of most of the prominent figures in his unit.Take for example Darren, Arran knew he came from a noble family that made it their duty to lead the army of the Aeth race in exploring new territories in the universe. Each and every member of their family who had already finished their training and has come of age would head to the frontlines of the exploration army to serve to further the legacy of the family.Another person who Arran h
Inside the gate, the layout of the training grounds was vastly different from the way the Kingsman training ground was.There was still a castle-looking complex and like the one at the Kingsman training grounds, it was empty with no one at the castle.But this could be explained as this time Arran was entering without an invitation from the chosen but was here only on Eris and Charmy's personal invitation.Still, the inside of the castle was different in its setup from the castle at the Kingsman training grounds.Inside instead of statues commemorating the past Kingsmen, there were framed portraits that were hung on the walls of the castle, and under these portraits were only the brief introductions of the people to whom the portraits belonged to.Seeing as the information on the past chosen was very brief and contained little to no information on their past achievements and their current status among the Aeth, Arran turned to Eris and asked about
Arran was currently sitting in his room.Earlier today when he had followed Eris and Charmy to the chosen training ground, apart from all the new knowledge he had learned most of them concerning him, Arran had also watched how it was that the chosen trained.When it all comes down to it the way they trained was not any different from the way regular cadets trained. The only difference stemmed from the fact that the chosen are able to incorporate the use of the abilities contained in their individual sparks of origin.Unlike the Kingsmen who had to train the use of their bloodline abilities and other specific tactics like the special combat technique developed by the Kingsman for aerial flight, unlike these the chosen only had to train in the various combinations that are derived from the use of their spark of origin.If Arran was made to comment on the different methods of training between the Kingsman and the chosen then Arran would say that they both he
The reality gate that was manifested in Arran's subconscious stood at a height where neither the top nor the bottom could be made out. It was as if it was blended into the space around and as it stood there the river of stars and storms of lightning served as a backdrop to enhance its magnificence.Arran stood in front of the reality gate as he observed the phenomenon that was going on following its appearance.Ever since the reality gate manifested stably in his subconscious, his subconscious mind had experienced a lot of changes. These changes could be said to embody the mysteries of the reality gate and its connections to the universe.Normally whenever Arran had wanted to meditate, his subconscious mind had always been blank and without any substance. Only when Arran used his imagination to fill up his subconscious would it seem alive and not dead like it always was.But now with the appearance of the reality gate, Arran's subconscious could be said t
"Have you already advanced as a peak Demi?"To be honest instructor Fel was very surprised by this discovery but because of her identity as an instructor, she did her best to not let it show. She could not very well display her surprise so plainly for everybody to see.Still, she asked Arran as a means of confirmation.Arran answered instructor Fel's question, "Yes I have."Instructor Fel nodded her head as she said, "This must have happened the previous night didn't it?"Arran nodded.She continued saying, "No wonder there was a commotion in the academy yesterday. It is hard to believe that all that was caused by you simply reaching the peak as he Demi. It would seem that your future achievements are truly going to be something to look forward to."After instructor Fel was done with her musings she said to Arran, "Well this is truly an occasion worth celebrating but since we do not have the time for that we can only leave that for an
While Arran was surprised by the function of the reality gate it was not like instructor Fel would wait for him to calm down.Not waiting for Arran to immerse himself in his own thoughts, instructor Fel asked, "I ask you when I say that you need to have the strength to be able to open the doors and peer into the universe's secret, what do you think I mean by that? What kind of strength do you think I refer to?"Arran took some time to think about this seriously.From the information he had which was very little Arran would have initially thought that the strength instructor Fel referred to was one's battle capabilities... that is referring to his realm... but when Arran thought about it what exactly did one's battle capabilities have to do with understanding the secrets of the universe?It was not like you were going to wrestling the secrets of the universe out of the reality gate, was it?As Arran thought about this instructor did not interrupt hi
From the open door came the figure of commander Margo who Arran had not seen for a long while now.As the figure of commander Margo came in through the door Arran could see that she was wearing a kind of ceremonial costume like the one court officials would wear when they had to attend some important function. From this Arran could tell that commander Margo was probably busy with something else before having to come here.While still having doubts about why commander Margo would be here when he was about to open his reality gate and why instructor Fel would be waiting for her, it did not stop Arran from going forward and greeting her.Arran with his shoulders raised greeted commander Margo, "Good day commander, its good to see you after such a long time."Commander Margo looked at Arran and took some time to scrutinize Arran before she replied, "Hmm, it's good to see you too. I'm very surprised by your progress in this one short month but this also makes
