Two weeks have gone by and it was finally time for the chosen ceremony to begin.
Prior to now, Arran had been frantically trying to improve his combat ability as much as he possibly could, given such little time, but when there had only been three days left until the chosen ceremony was meant to start, Arran had slowed down the intensity of his training and had instead used that time to relax himself.
He had spent most of those three days in bed with Charmy or touring the academy and the three towns outside the academy leisurely with Eris and Charmy. He did this because he knew that while it was important for one to increase their strength as much as possible before a competition, Arran knew that it was also equally as possible for one to be well-rested before a competition so that one would be at their best state.
That was why Arran had taken those three days to rest. apart from the morning drills with instructor Fel, and a few light sparring with Eris and Char
The young noblemen and women made their way over to Eris and Charmy's side with the intention of getting closer to them.Eris and Charmy saw them making their way over and Charmy frowned and said, "Oh-oh, we have some rogue pests closing in on our six Eris. How do you think we should play this one? Do we conduct evasive maneuvers or held and defend the fort?"Eris raised her hands to her forehead as she massaged it, looking like she was suffering from a serious migraine. She did not want to be disturbed at this time by people who thought they were too big for their own britches and with the way Charmy was treating this it looked as if she was not taking this seriously at all.After massaging her temple, Eris said to Charmy while at the same time looking at the group of noblemen and women coming over."Behave Charmy, this is not the academy so you can't go messing around as you like. We'll just welcome them nicely and chat for a while before dismissing all
When the group from the breaking dawn royal college were discussing the chances of their senior Joyner Wellington winning the chance of being chosen as the guardian of the World Essence Pulse Bracer, both Charmy and Eris were not interested in joining them and they only stood by the side and listened with each of them having their own thoughts.Charmy was thinking about when the ceremony would begin so that she would be able to watch Arran's dashing figure as he tried to clear each and every obstacle in his path. As for Eris although her mind was also on Arran, she was predominantly thinking of the best way to dismiss these people without seeming impolite.It was only when the discussion shifted to the type of challenge that the candidates would face in the first elimination round that the interest of both Charmy and Eris was aroused.Hearing the topic of the groups from the Breaking Dawn Royal College's discussion, Charmy and Eris pricked up their ears to liste
This ceremony was being broadcasted live on every network channel in every territory under the control of the Aeth and the people who were paying attention to this ceremony numbered in the tens of billions all across the galaxy.Everybody took some time to reminisce about the incident that happened four hundred years ago and even the voice did not speak for a while as everywhere fell into silence. The silence went on for a minute before the voice continued speaking again."I didn't mean to dredge up memories of the past but it is an undisputed fact that this happened already, it is also a fact that we have already made progress in uncovering the mystery of four hundred years ago that still remains unsolved. With the recovery of our greatest treasure, those of you who are participating in this ceremony in order to earn the right of being chosen as a guardian do this not only to receive great power but whoever is chosen as the guardian to this treasure will take on the r
While the participants prepared themselves for the start of the first elimination round, up on the floating mountain, the rest of the invited audience in the venue were discussing the mode of the first round amongst themselves. It had to be said that the audience was quite surprised and excited by this new way of eliminating the participants. With such an ingenious method being employed right from the start, there was bound to be no dull moment in this ceremony.Unfortunately, not all who were present here were as excited about this mode of competition. at the very least Eris and Charmy were quite worried about Arran's chances during this round of eliminations.When the two of them had first heard about how the first round of eliminations would be conducted, their first reaction was to think about Arran and how he would fare during this round. this way especially so for Charmy because she knew more than anyone here just how treacherous and dangerous the ocean could be.
As soon as Councilman Homer announced the start of the chosen ceremony and the beginning of the first elimination round, all the participants were like arrows that had been fired loose from a tightly strung bow, shooting forward with such speed into the ocean and bringing a start to this survival race.All at since every participant used their special methods to try to cross the ocean. Some of them brought out boats that they had prepared for themselves during the preparatory period and those that had formed temporary teams did their best to use their powers to accommodate each other. Those that had control over water would use their abilities to ferry the others and themselves across the ocean while the others wh had nothing to do would be in charge of dealing with anybody that needed to be dealt with.In this race where everybody was trying to get as much advantage over their opponents as possible, no one wanted to see other people get ahead of them right from the st
On the ocean.As soon as Joyner Wellington made a move he quickly shrugged off the attacks of the other participants who were trying to stop him from pulling ahead of everyone else. Before long Joyner had already crossed a great distance in a matter of seconds and his figure could already be seen fading into the horizon.This development greatly surprised everybody and some people guessed that Joyner must have used a kind of speed boosting ability or equipment that increased his speed by a whole lot making it possible for him to cover such a long distance in such little time.The participants were helpless to stop him and nothing could be done except for them to let him go. Still, this was not entirely a bad thing as since there was already a precedent then with the example of Joyner Wellington, some of the participants had started to pull away from each other.At first, some of the other participants still targeted those who tried to follow Joyner Wellin
It was not only the participants that thought that Arran was being very silly, even the audience watching the competition felt that Arran was biting off more than he could chew."What does that participant think he is doing?" Forthright asked after seeing Arran moving away from the outlined path. "He is going in the completely opposite direction from where he is supposed to."Everybody turned to look at what Forthright was talking about only to see Arran with his back turned to the rest of the participants. This immediately drew their attention and they started discussing it."I say has there ever been such a dumb participant in any of the previous chosen ceremonies before?" June asked."I don't know about before but I do know that this person must be really sick in the head. What exactly is he thinking?" Her sister July answered."Dexter Mycroft was simply smiling and he was initially not interested in this topic at all but seeing as his attempts
As soon as Arran opened up his senses to feel the magnetic pulse of the mother planet, it was like a door to a whole new world was open for Arran to walk through. If previously Arran using his ability to sense his environment was like looking at the rain through a glass window, now that Arran had completely opened himself up to feel the mother planets magnetic pulse it was like Arran had steeped into the rain and he was feeling every single raindrop as they fell on his body and he felt the cold that came with the rain traveling up his spine to settle deep in his bones.This was a whole other experience than just using his ability to passively receive information on his surroundings. Right now Arran was connected so closely to the magnetic pulse of the mother planet that it was like the planet was talking directly in his ears and it was telling him everything that he wanted to know.For some reason, Arran felt so close at this point to the planet than he had ever been b
