The orb began to glow as Kairos carefully channeled his mana into it. For a moment, nothing seemed to happen, but then a faint hum filled the room, and the light from the orb intensified.
It was red in color and small red wisps of lightning can be seen surroundings the blue orb.
He has awakened his bloodline element. Red lightning...thus it wasn't a surprise.
In this world. Novels and commoner's maintains a strict line heritage. Usually those atlest have a shard of bloodline within their boddies always awakens the element reacted to that bloodline and unique ability of that bloodline, atop of that that they awakens their own fated elements.
Thus even the trashiest nobles who had a little shards of such bloodline may it be [white] rank, has two elements atlest. While on the other hand commoner's could only dream of awakening two elements. Even awakening one element is a blessing to them.
Kairos focused more, as the red wisps of lightning faded and slowly his mana started resonating with other elements within the orb.
This orbs are called awakening orbs. What they do was resonate with the Zeroth circle within ones heart Within the wisps of elementals essces of all kinds. In this world everyone's Zeroth circle has different frequencies which resonates with different kind of elements.
As the red lightning began to fade, Kairos could feel a shift deep within his core. His mana was still resonating with the orb.
A shadowy mist began to rise around the orb, dark tendrils swirling within the blue light, coiling around Kairos's hand. The once bright and shifting hues of the orb were now overshadowed by a growing darkness—his second element was awakening.
" Shadow element.." Valeria Nozvan muttered feeling happy as her son awakened shadow element just like her along side her red lightning.
Alvaz eyes become more focused seeing his brother awakening the shadow element. He has seen his mother fighting, and how she utilizes red lightning with shadow. The combination was deadly.
He was also feeling satisfied. As his brother didn't awaken some random element.
But then just as they thought the awakening process ended the orb started reacting once again.
The orb's color started changing again. He focused and started sensing it. The dark color of the orb started shifted and becoming darker and darker, transforming into a deep, almost pitch black shade. Intense heat radiated from it. Even the air around the orb seemed to fluctuate with waves of heat, creating a distorted, mirage-like effect.
The light stone started flickering, as if someone was turning it on and off continuously.All three people in the room were shocked. The atmosphere grew tense.
"Honey, it should be Gravity,right?" Kairos's mother asked in an uncertain tone, shaking, and clutching the helm of her dress tightly.
"Let's hope it isn't Darkness." Kairos thought, flinching at the mere possibility.
His father remained silent, looking to Elin for answers.Elin himself was shocked, observing more carefully to check what element it was. Yet, the orb slowly returned to its normal state before changing again.
Kairos looked at Sir Elin for answers, worrying about the truth of his 3rd element . That's already will place him as a genius, but if it turns out to be darkness it won't bring any luck and might brought destruction to his whole family.
"No, let's not hope for that," kairos convinced himself, waiting for Elin to speak up.
Who was still pondering the second element that he had awakened, his eyebrows were tightly knit using his full focus on the task.
"Hmm," Elin murmured, his eyes narrowing as he continued to analyze the orb's residual energy. The room held its nervous, almost fearful atmosphere, awaiting her assessment.
After careful analysis, Elin finally spoke, her voice steady, "Young master Congratulations you have awakened the trait 'MAGNETISM'."
Simultaneously, two sighs escaped from his parents mouths, as thankfully, their worst nightmares didn't come true.
Kairos also sighed in relief. Fortunately, his fate isn't that twisted. What he feared most didn't happen.
"DARKNESS".
The element of the sheer terror of humanity, a harbinger of misfortune. When the war broke out, "DARKNESS", was considered one of the most powerful elements of the world until the renowned weilders started behaving weirdly when the demons approached this world.
And as the scholars expected, the ones with 'DARKNESS' started changing. Their behavior twisted, and their actions completely irrational. They massacred their own comrades' and joined the demons in their assualt.
The phenomenon began being called as the "DEMON POSSESSION".
And from that point, Those with "DARKNESS" element, even those not possessed were executed, and their relatives were put to prison and to be baptized, leaving no chances of demonic possession. In the process, they will lose all the power, the lands they held, along with their authority to wield mana, either sealed or completely crippled.Those unwilling to meet this end hurried to join up with the Dark forces.
Thus, seeing Kairos hadn't awakened that cursed element , the atmosphere relaxed and everyone heaved a collective sigh of relief.
After that, Kairos was told to return home while his parents talks about his future. Kairos gave a glance at his father when he was leaving. His father looked at him nodding his head. Making Kairos feel assured that his father will talk. About his admission to the acadecy as commoner what they had intialy talked about.
" Phew that done " he mumbled as he walked through the corridor. But then a voice interrupted him.
" Kairos, Don't embarrass father and mother at the academy and stay cautious"
Kairos turned around. It was his brother. Kairos wasn't expecting such words still he replied. " Thank you, brother I will try my best "
Alvaz nodded his head before leaving him going on his way. Kairos also didn't wander around and straight gone for his room.
A week gone by, As Kairos slowly stabilized his first circle and Within this short time. Infront of him was a small brown badge.
His father has done it. He had gotten himself a enrollment badge somehow. He will be enrolling the academy as a commoner.
His plans was going smoothly. Through realizing what he has to do, It felt sad.
But his resolve his hard steel on it.
" For the sake of future. I'm sorry father"
