Thomas reached his destination. It was a big old fashioned looking building. It was made from low-quality magic stones, their purpose is to create a barrier in case of a monsters outbreak, or terrorist attack.
Thomas went straight to the reception desk. And there he saw a bored receptionist in her early twenties, she was playing a mobile game. And paid no attention to Thomas, who was starting to get irritated, due to already waiting for five minutes.
"Oh, hello" after finishing the game, she noticed Thomas. "Why didn't you say anything, sir?"
"I would hate, being interrupted while playing on a phone during work hours as well" he mocked her.
She blushed out of embarrassment. Thomas kept staring at her, without even blinking. Which creeped her out.
"So, what's the purpose of your visit sir?" she tried to end the awkward silence.
"I am here as a new awakener. I was told by John.. uh. Johnson? Oh yeah. Jonathan Miller. To come over and get my talent and magic skill evaluated. Where should I go now?" Thomas showed her the card Johnson gave him.
"Oh, Magicians and Mutants law Organization. I see, no, his name is not Jonathan, your second guess was right thou" she smiled.
"I don't care, what's his name. Where should I go now?" Thomas replied without breaking the eye contact, which yet again creeped the poor receptionist out.
"Uhm, yeah, please just let me register you." she gave him a registration form. "just fill this up. Name, age, and a signature."
After that, they left. Five minutes later, after walking down the stairs, they stood in front of a huge automatic door. Behind those doors, a huge and empty hall.
"That's it?" Thomas was surprised. "Are you sure you know the way?"
The girl started to get irritated by Thomas's attitude. But gently replied. "I definitely know sir!"
Thomas stared at her with disbelief and annoyance that was clearly visible on his face.
The receptionist took out her phone again and typed in a message. In about two minutes a buff guy arrived, carrying a huge transparent ball over his head. When he came in, he dropped the ball on the ground.
"Wow. That thing must weigh at least a few hundred kilos." Thomas was intrigued. "So, what now?"
"First…" the man replied instead of receptionist and took something out of his pocket. "Take this needle, you'll need a drop of blood, and drop it on the magic stone over here " he pointed his finger at the ball.
That's a magic stone? "I could have sworn it was a crystal. Well, you learn something new every day. I suppose". Thomas thought to himself. But instead of using a needle, he bit his index finger. After blood showed up, he dropped a little on the ball.
It was at this moment that the system was triggered.
[Host is injured, do you require demonic transformation?]
What the hell? That's new to me. I can do that?
[Yes]
And what's the use of demonic transformation?
[Unlike when your demonic instincts take over, it won't be only your aura that will become visible, during transformation, your body will adapt to your demonic self, and your physical body will take the shape of your demon(spirit), which will give you a huge boost in strength. So do you require it?]
And… Any downsides?
[ Your body will forever stay in that form. And in human society, people like that are called mutants. However, even though mutants only get physical enhancement from magical energy, you'll still be able to use spells]
Sounds good to me!
[Oh, the process is also very painful, and for the one minute, you will lose your sanity for a demon.]
OH HELL NO!
"What in the world is this" receptionist was shocked. Even the man in front of her was stunned. Instead of magic stone showing a glimpse of energy, the whole ball started flashing different colors. Blue, red, black, green, purple, orange, and dark gray. Every second it sparkled a different color and in about ten seconds the sparkling show ended. Both receptionist and the man were stunned. This boy can use so many different magical elements. Blue for water, red for fire, black for darkness, purple for lightning, orange for curses, and dark gray for shadows. The receptionist looked at him and saw a man with a great future. She obviously needs to get close to this kind of prodigy. If she did, her future would be as bright as the sun!
