Four years passed in the blink of an eye.
Year of Eclipta Eclipse (EE)960051, Month Jan
Today every town under the Bluerock City is bustling with activity as today is the day of awakening a affinity seed for Bluerock City and the towns under it .
The awakening ceremony is carried in the month of January and July of every year for the entire month, the 1st awakening will be held in main capital city on the 1st of the month followed by the other 2 capital cities and then the remaining 25 cities .
In a Villa in the eastern side of the Seastone Town Eldryn is preparing for his awakening, It's been four years since his awakening of time and space elements ,he have tempered his body and soul every day using the star power ,but he was never confident in awakening his affinity seed until a month ago everything changed when he saw a Change in the affinity column on the 1st page of the Chaos Book.
Before going down the hall for dinner, Eldryn checked the Chaos Book once again, for the changes.
[The Heavenly Chaos System]
Name : Eldryn Emberheart
Age: 5
Cultivation: -0 star warrior
Cultivation techniques: Chaos Resonance (873/1000) beginner
Skills: Chaos Surge Assault (240/500) beginner

After Confirming the Affinity section and he is just little more than 100 points for being intermediate in the cultivation technique made Eldryn even happier ,as he went downstairs towards the hall,Eldryn
saw his father, uncle and his cousin Nathan and Amelia are waiting for him.
As soon as Nathan saw Eldryn his voice filled with discontent sounded through the hall " Hey, Eldryn what took you so long we have waited for more than 10 mins for you."
As Nathan's voice hung in air , Andrew cast him a cold gaze , without meeting Andrew's gaze Nathan continued " We should go early so that after the awakening we can have a stroll around the awakening street ,and I heard that there will be a small auction in the Silver Trade Commerce, after the end of awakening ceremony."
Seeing that Andrew has withdrawn his cold gaze Nathan continued in an excited voice" Dad ,you promised me after I reached a 1 - star warrior you will take me to a auction but it's been 5 months you have to take me there "
Seeing that Nathan was again about to continue his blaberring Andrew cut him off" Enough,I will take you to today's auction let's have breakfast first"After scolding Nathan, Andrew with a smile said to Eldryn" your mom and aunt has made a special dish for your awakening day come sit with uncle"
Eldryn sat near his uncle and asked" Uncle can you also take me to today's auction."
Eldryn too have heard of the Silver Trade Commerce Auction which will be held during every awakening time and the awakening street, is a street which is made by low level warriors to sell and scam resources and materials related to low level warriors specially during the awakening day, everything is said to him by Nathan who have awakened his earth affinity seed 2 years ago.
Just as Andrew was about to reply Amelia who is near Nathan asked "father, can I also come to the auction."
Andrew was about to decline,but Jonathan who is near Amelia patted her little head and said with a smile " ofcourse, uncle will take you to the auction house "
"Thankyou,uncle" Amelia said with an excited smile.
As they where chatting,his mother and aunt approached the table, their hands laden with steaming, aromatic dishes. The rich scents of freshly cooked meats and savory spices filled the room as they carefully set down the plates.
After having the breakfast they walked towards western side of town along the bustling street, untill they saw a spacious platform,which was centrally located within a grand arena.
.
"Go, don't feel nervous" his father's voice sounded in his ear as Eldryn felt little nervous.
"All the best, Eldryn, don't think about the Affinity seed you will awaken everything is based on how you use it ."Andrea advised her son calmly and continued
" Ok,go now, we will watch from the stand "
" Yes , Mom" Eldryn replied and with steady steps he approached the spacious platform where there is registration desk and after filling the details he was allowed in the spacious platform where
Eldryn walked towards the gathering area near the awakening platform with an affinity crystal placed in center of the platform and the awakening individuals are divided into three groups of people among which the group on which Eldryn present only had around 60 people and everyone is around same age as him, meanwhile the second group is made of people from age 6 to 10 and there are more than 1000 present and the last group consist of around only 20 people.
Although 5 years old is the ideal age of awakening,it can be done even at the age of 40 or 50 by training the body and as they grow their soul grows stronger which results in the possibilities of awakening a affinity seed but they can only stay as a low level star warrior with one or two affinity seed for the rest of their life ,and to operate the affinity crystal largest amount of star stones will be used which contains star power and it is impossible to help one awaken without enough star stones.
Therefore ,in the kingdom the awakening for children of 5 years age will be free and from 6 to 10 years age they can again try to awaken the affinity seed and if they awaken a affinity they have to sign a soul contract to work 20 years for the kingdom or else 10 years and from the age of 11 one can try to awaken one time every 5 years for 5 times and if they succeed or not will have to sign the contract to serve the kingdom till their death.
This is one of the reason why the royal family is very powerful, as they have a large number of 1- star warrior to 9- star warrior who will never betray them,and for the people who awaken affinity seed even after age 11 even if they live and die as a slave their descendants can have better life than them.
Ofcourse, we can also try to awaken the affinity seed by the affinity crystal which is present in the alchemist hall , mercanries hall and other hall branches present in the city through the credits of that hall or by giving the star stones.
After waiting for another 20 mins around 9 in th morning an elderly man with a group of around 20 soldiers arrived at the platform.
As soon as the elderly man and the soldiers appeared on the platform the arena fell silent for a short second before it erupted once again.
"Cough, cough I am Grey a 5 -star warrior from the the capital city and I will be the one overseeing today's awakening ceremony,okay now let's start the awakening ceremony ".As Grey's voice echoed through the arena the crowd toned down the voice.
At the same time the soldiers also started to operate the affinity crystal with the Star stones.
