Chapter 9 - awakening

Schwert POV

"Damn that brother of mine. Why didn't he wake me up? I may have been wasted

yesterday but I might have woken up if he at least tried a bit. I have to hurry

or I'll be late" I said as I was skimming over the room as I was getting ready

and left as soon as possible

"Once I get my weapon spirit I need create a teleportation spell or at least a flight

spell" I thought "I have many theories but I cannot test them out because of

not having enough pure Mana I need to get a high class one today"

I ran as fast as I could as I got through the crowd soon enough I reached the

gate of the academy as it was about to close. Once I was inside I heard a

familiar voice

"I see you made it in time" the voice giggled as he said who turned out to be my

brother

"You seem to having fun" I said as I recuperated myself from the running

"Well at least you made it in time" he said

"Don't even joke about it" I warned

"Ya- ya even if you didn't make it in time I took the liberty to resister your name

in the awakening ceremony" he said as he giggled

"Thanks for that. I think…" I said and Sieg lashed out on me

"I think – do you know how much trouble it took to make arrangements for not only

you but for the whole group. It was frustrating to say the least. Do you know

how much trouble it caused me? You could at least thank me better you stupid

big brother." He said angrily

"You can off the hook this time Sieg. It's not as if this good for nothing brother

of yours learns" charlotte said

"You can say that again" Jason said so to

"Looks like the whole gang is here so let's get going and awaken our spirits" Sieg

said

"yes-yes let's go" I said hurriedly

"And you are not off the hook yet" he said as we went in

Then we went to the room were the awakening was supposed to happen

"Ohh this place is more popular than I remembered. I think I see few ants around" I

joked

"It is supposed to be opened only when you applied for a reservation" charlotte

said

"I wonder what it is like to have an awakening" Adam said

"I wonder to" I said

"Let's wish for the best spirit" Angelica said

"You are right we should worry about what kind of color you will get" Adam said

"I will get the best grade there is the divine grade" Jason said

"How will you get a divine grade? The slots are all full for the divine grade. There

are people who have divine grade" I said

"Then I will get a pink grade or something" Jason replied

Then we reached the room of awakening. It was a sight to be beheld. There was a

magic circle with eight statues (statue of each race) in the eight different directions

and in the center was a cylindrical column with a magic stone in the center.

Basically everything I imagined minus the statues

"Welcome to the awakening hall. I the one incharge of your awakening process" Man who

seemed to be his late thirties said

"Thank you for your hard work sir" Sieg said

"You don't need to thank me after all it's my job to do so" he said

"Yes sir" Sieg said

"So how will be the first to go" he asked

"It will be me sir" Adam said

We had decided on the order before had through lottery

"Then please go ahead and pour your mana in the magic stone" he said

"I shall" Adam said

"Best of luck for your awakening" me and Jason said at the same time

"Thanks guys" he said

Adam poured mana through the stone then after a moment it glowed red and came was

the symbol of this weapon spirit

"Congratulation you got a red grade weapon spirit" the incharge of the awakening room said said

"Then I will go" it was charlotte turn

Charlotte poured mana through the stone then after a moment it glowed pink and came was

the symbol of this weapon spirit

"Ohh what do we have here congratulation you got a pink grade weapon spirit" the incharge

of the awakening room said

"I will go next" Jason said

"Try your luck" said charlotte

"Thanks for the vote of confidence" Jason said

Jason poured mana through the stone then after a moment it glowed pink and came was

the symbol of this weapon spirit

"Ohh another congratulation you got a pink grade weapon spirit" the incharge of the

awakening room said

"I got the pink grade" Jason said

"Then I will go next" angelica said with a soft voice

Angelica poured mana through the stone then after a moment it glowed red and a phoenix

materialized

"Ohh I see you are a healer. Congratulation on getting a red grade spirit guardian

and it's a rare one to boot if you train enough there is a chance of it to rise

a level its name is [the ruler of flame and king of sky a phoenix]" he said

astoundingly

"I knew you could do it. You managed to get a red grade" Sieg said

"I think I should awaken mine and hope it's at least good as yours" Sieg said as

he rubbed his hair

"You don't have to worry you are stronger than me I am sure you'll get a high tier

one" angelica said as she hold his hand

"*chough I think we should move on we don't want to waste time. You're up Sieg" I said

as I cleared my troth

"Huh ah yes I will go now" Sieg said as he was pulled back to reality

"He is in love that's for sure" charlotte got close to me and whispered

"That's for sure and angelica seem to holding back a bit I think she doesn't know what

she is feeling" I said

"For the first time in your life you said something sensible" charlotte said

"What I am always sensible" I said

"Whatever your brother is about awaken his spirit. Let's hope it's at least as strong as

Angelica" charlotte said

"I know my brother well he is strong enough to get a pink grade" I said

"Whatever" she replied

Sieg poured mana through the stone then after a moment it glowed white and materialized

a bow

"What how can this be" we all looked shocked

"You are a retainer Sieg. Since there is already a user to [the bow of destruction].You

have received a hidden class of spirit the retainer class. There is only one retainer

class for each divine weapon they might be weaker than a true divine weapon but

it's much stronger than a pink grade counterpart" he said

"Damn Sieg you seemed to be the winner this time" Jason said as he seemed to be

amazed

"Well I don't know about that. After all it may be a retainer class but I would like

to have the true divine spirit later on. So how do I get the true divine spirit

anyways" Sieg said

"Well there are two ways. The first being the current user should die. The second is if the

current user gives up her divine weapon and inherits a primordial class which

is weaker than the true divine spit but stronger than the retainer class in

another words they retire." the incharge said

"Well that's good to know" Sieg said

"Stealing the spot light. I think it's the time of your brother" I said

I poured mana through the stone then after a moment it glowed white and a sword

materialized

"Ohh you are a retainer to I see." Before he could say anything else the stone glowed

again this time in a pink hue which was brighter than charlotte and Jason

combined

"What in the world is happening" Jason said

Then what came shocked everyone

The magic stone broke, but that wasn't the issue here there were two creatures that

materialized.

"A-Amon-ster doesn't begin to describe you" the incharge stumbled in his words as he said

those words and everyone else had there jaw dropped

"w-what" I said

There were two spirit guardians one standing one hovering. A wolf and a dragon

"I am the storm dragon named Kilgharrah one of the four supreme dragons" the

dragon with the obsidian like scales said though he looked kinda small "Don't

be surprised with my size I took the liberty to shrink when I was summoned to

make sure that I don't kill my first master. This should be interesting"

"I am the great white wolf. I control every ice and water attribute in this world. And I go by the name of Fenrir" the wolf with fir as white as the snow in the tundra said

"They can talk" I said swallowing my saliva

"That's quite a surprise. You not only have a retainer class weapon spirit of

[The world divider sword] but also having not one but two guardian spirits they both

are of pink grade and also creatures of legends" he sounded quite astonished

"Your group might be the strongest students in this academy having two of each red, pink and

retainer grade. You might just take the crown for the best party in this

academy later on. I'll inform about this new development to the higher ups they

will be delighted after hearing this" he said

"Thank you for your guidance" I said to incharge and met up with the group they were

still mesmerized by the development

"Ahem –Ahem I say I win for getting the best spirit" I said

"You are just unbelievable" they said in the same voice
