Currently Ray was in a wide hall which was decorated solemnly, as if it was a sacred alter for a Divine being. This place was the Temple of Awakening, where the Awakening Ceremony of high nobles and royalties are held. There is a branch in every county, Dukedom and the main Temple is on the Royal Capital, Nivas.
The Royal Capital of the Human Kingdom, Nivas, is a magnificent City with the highest population in the Kingdom and the second highest in the world. It boosts a hundred percent literacy rate as even the most common person would be a scholar apprentice. Even the slaves and servants are educated so they don't cause any mishaps to their owner.
The Royal Palace is in the very centre of Nivas, sounding it the residence of the mages and Knights above the Master Rank. The King himself is an Arch Knight. This time, the Awakening Ceremony is being held for only two people, one being the first born and inheritor of the Sunchasers' , Raynar Sunchaser and the other being the first daughter of the Nightwalkers' , Livia Nightwalker.
Both of them are outstanding geniuses. Livia is someone with a talent rivaling that of the Crown Prince himself, who is said to be a talent once in a thousand years. Raynar , on the other hand , is even more amazing or you could even say monstrous, as his talent is the first of its kind to recorded in the Kingdom's long history of 56,000 years. His talent is above everyone's talent, the rumoured God level talent.
Both of them, their families, the other Grand Dukes, the Royal family , Even the Grand protector's elemental clone were here. This is to see the result of the heaven defying talent's future. Normally, one would become a Novice professional if they have a decent talent this beginning their journey as professionals. Someone with the best talent like Livia and the Crown Prince, will directly reach stage 4 Novice, this is already good enough. If they have a bloodline that gets awakened during the ceremony, they will reach a stage above the intended one thus the best talent would reach the peak stage 5 of Novice. But Ray has surpassed this level of talent so they were wondering what miracle he is going to show everyone.

Meanwhile, in a building that was right in the middle between the the Temple of Awakening and the southern entrance of the Capital.
This building's ground floor was bustling. Many robust men and solemnly women were moving in and out. There were some skirmishes at the entrance. There were people drinking in the second floor. At the entrance one could see the words 'ADVENRURERS GUILD' in extremely books letters. This was the main branch of the adventurers guild in the Kingdom.
At the top floor, only a single room was here. The door were adorned by the word, ' Guild Master ' . A bulk man with to much muscles and rough face was talking to another man who was the very embodiment of etiquette and elegance. Shockingly, They were talking about Ray.
"Are you sure, Gilmart? As the Guild Master, you needn't go there personally. The Royal family is there only because of the Princess (he means Lily). You have a image to keep."( the other man )
"No, Lambert. I have to go this time. It is not because of the King. It is because of the boy himself. He is too precious. We cannot allow anything to happen to him."(Gilmart)
"Wait, you mean someone wants him dead? but who?"(Lambert)
"Take a guess."(Gilmart)
"He is a monstrous talent. One beyond comprehension. If he awakens, then he will certainly cause waves. He might even become a Rank 1 professional directly. That is really a great situation for our side. Then, those enemy spies would certainly want to kill him but I don't think they would kill him right there. That's just plain stupid. If they do that, won't they expose themselves and even if they do it, they won't be able kill him with all those powerhouses there. So what is it? Tell me what you know."( Lambert )
"Tell me, if those guys all try to kill him without caring for their lives, what would happen?"(Gilmart)
"Then there is a high chance to kill him. But why would they? They won't normally do that unless it is threat to the whole Demon Empire. After all, if they don't want to die, then they can just send that should back to the Empire to get resurrected. But why would they want kill him that much? His talent is great, yes. I accept and acknowledge that. Still, I don't understand why would they want to kill him that much. Unless..!!?"(Lambert)
Lambert suddenly stopped from his seat. His body was trembling. His voice was shaking in sheer excitement at the possibility he thought.
"Are you sure? Is it him? If he is the successor of his Highness, then it all falls into place. If that is the case, his overwhelming talent and everything that you said makes sense. But, are you sure it is him? "(Lambert)
"I am not 100% sure yet. He is the most likely candidate. We will know in the ceremony. If his bloodline awakens, then we will know. We have to protect him from hard during the Ceremony. We will decide if he goes with you or not later."(Gilmart)
"Okay, Let's leave now. If those bastards want to do something to something to him, I won't sit still. Even if he is not his Highness' successor, he is most likely candidate for forming the contact with her Highness , the Princess, Felicia Humbert Solaris .I won't let him die. In the case, he is the successor, then , I will make those traitors regret being born. I will show then the wrath of the Dragons. "(Lambert)
Shocking. A dragon was so riled up. And was even telling some terrifying things. It is already shocking that the dragon princess wants to form a binding contract with a Human. It is even more shocking that Ray send to have inherited the bloodline of a dragon that is also at the top of their heirarchy.
"Yes, let's go. I have also dispatched a total of 500 adventurers. 350 S rank, 145 SS rank, and 5 SSS rank."(Gilmart)
"Good let's go. Here take my hand. I will teleport is there."(Lambert)
