Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Elemental Assessment

Three months have passed since the announcement of Stark. The kid Kraftvoll, who just recently reached the age of five, is very excited about his elemental assessment.

"Father, let's go to the Seishin Hall, and let's assess my elemental affinities!"

"Little Kraftvoll, it's 5 in the morning, the sun is not yet in the sky. Seishin Hall will be open at 9 in the morning so sleep more." Kraftvoll's father replied.

After saying that to Kraftvoll, his father continued sleeping.

Few hours have passed, Kraftvoll didn't sleep a wink in the previous hours because of his excitement.

"FATHER! IT'S TIME TO GO!" he shouted at his father. "Okay, let's go. We will arrive at the Seishin hall exactly the time it will open." His father replied.

The father and son duo started to walk to the Seishin hall. The Seishin hall is not that far from their home so they only need a few minutes to walk to it.

As they walk to the Seishin hall, a smile can be seen in Kraftvoll's face. After a few minutes, the father-son duo arrived at the Seishin hall.

A man walked to the front and started to announce something, "The annual elemental assessment will start in a few minutes after the facilitator arrived."

Kraftvoll frowned after hearing this, "How long do we have to wait?" he said. "Be patient. Only those with patience can achieve the highest possible power." His father replied.

Kraftvoll's father said this because of his own experience. When he was a youth just like Kraftvoll, he, too, did not have patience in everything because of that he only reached the rank of Seishin Captain without breaking through the rank of Seshin General.

After a few minutes of waiting, a mighty practitioner of Seishin came. He is also a Seishin Sage like Stark but is on another level. Stark can be considered as a Middle Sage but the expert that just recently came is a High Sage, the strongest level in the rank of Seishin Sage.

"I am Hund von Schwert, a High Sage from the royal capital. I am your facilitator today. We will assess your affinities using this Seishin Orb. I want all of the people who want to be assessed today to form a line." The mighty practitioner said.

"Wow, it seems like he belongs to the noble family of a duke." People who are spectating gossiped among themselves.

The youths started to fall in line. In a matter of minutes, the line became too long. There are approximately two hundred youths that are in line.

Kraftvoll was placed near the end because they were too late to go when the crowd of people started to form a line.

The assessment started.

"Feel your inner Seishin and try to channel them to the Seishin Orb. If it started to glow, then its color will represent your elemental affinities. If the orb remains transparent, it only means one thing, you are unfit to become a Seishin practitioner and will remain a commoner for the rest of your life" the high sage stated.

The first in line put his hand to the orb and it suddenly started to glow in the color red. "You have an affinity in the element of fire! Congratulations! Next!"

The second in line also put his hand to the orb but even after a few seconds of touching the orb, it didn't glow. "Sorry, but you don't have affinities in any elements. Next!"

The line started to become thinner and thinner by the minute. And after a few hours, it is now time for Kraftvoll's assessment. "Put your hand on the orb and channel your Seishin in the orb." Kraftvoll put his hand on the orb.

Suddenly the orb started to shine brightly in six different colors. "THIS IS... "
