Chapter 159 - Awakening Kove And Rayna's Elements
When Kadyn walked out with Elora, everyone was shocked when they saw the colour of his hair, but what shocked them the most was the change in his hand. Nonetheless, after Kadyn explained that there was nothing wrong with him, he was even feeling stronger; they sighed in relief. It seems they were worried about him, not scared. Kadyn couldn't help but feel warmth in his heart.
Afterwards, Kadyn checked the time, it was seven in the morning. The Clover Square opened usually at around 8 o'clock. There was still some time before shops would open. Therefore, Kadyn turned towards Rayna and asked. "I will give you nine options, you decide what kind of element you want."
Everyone peered at him incomprehensibly. He smiled and said. "Wind; Fire; Lightning…" he voiced all the elements he possessed except Blessing. "Now tell me what kind of element you want?"
"You mean I can choose any one of them?" Rayna said with a shocked expression. Others were also equally stunned. They thought Kadyn had some kind of method by which he could awaken Rayna and Kove's magic stars. However, in that kind of situation, the element would be unknown, but right now, Kadyn was asking what kind of element she wanted. The fuck!
"Yes," Kadyn rolled his eyes at their exaggerated expressions. "You can choose any element."
"Can I also choose?" a voice muttered from behind Kadyn. He turned around and found a little child gazing at him with eyes filled with hope. Kadyn smiled at Kove and took him in his arms. "Of course, what kind of element do you want?"
"I want to become a summoner, they could summon beasts and make them heed their commands. They are so cool!"
"You want to become a summoner?" Kadyn said. "Alright!" Then he placed his hand on Kove's head and a golden glow covered the kid's head. And when everyone was still in confusion, Kadyn took his hand off his head. "Done." He said. "Try to feel your Mana Pool."
Kove blinked, but he still followed Kadyn's instruction, and when he opened his eyes, he jumped excitedly and hugged him. "I can be a mage as well now!"
"Is this for real?" Elora looked shocked at such a turn of events. They thought that Kadyn was just being a little too confident, but he proved them wrong. He awakened Kove's element in an instant. Moreover he gave him nine options to choose from!
Then Kadyn turned towards Rayna, the lady thought briefly and said. "I would like to choose… Psychic."
"Alright," Kadyn placed his hand over her head, and the same golden glow appeared once again. Immediately afterwards she realised that there was a Mana Pool inside her consciousness.
"Thank you, Kadyn, really." Rayna bowed deeply to him. Although she always pretended as if she didn't care about magic and stuff, she always felt inferior to others. Furthermore, her son always wanted to become a mage, and whenever she saw that envious look on Kove's face, seeing others casting spells, her heart pained. But she could do nothing.
"You don't need to do that, Sister Rayna," Kadyn said. "You just need to work hard."
"I will," she nodded.
Kadyn turned towards others and said. "As you can see," he paused for a moment and went on. "I can give magic element to others, and it isn't limited to someone without a magic."
"What?"
Kadyn's statement left them dumbstruck for a moment. They could not believe what they were hearing. "Does that mean we can awaken our second element, and we can even choose which one we want?" Barret asked in an agitated manner. He never thought that such a thing would be possible. None of them thought such a thing was possible. The realisation shocked them to the core of their hearts.
"Yes, but…" Kadyn paused as he grinned at them.
"But what?" Elora couldn't help but ask.
"But nothing is free in this world. So don't expect anything for free." Kadyn said, and then continued. "If you want to awaken your second element, you need a thousand energy points.
"Thousand!?"
Everyone's jaw almost fell on the ground. Even Elora would need a lot of time to earn that many energy points, much less them. Kadyn looked at them, but he didn't seem to notice their expression, as he continued. "And if you want to awaken your third element, you need to pay ten thousand, and for the fourth — hundred thousand ."
"What, we can even awaken the third and fourth element?" Everyone felt like pulling their hair at this moment. What the hell was going on? Didn't they say that people could have just a single element?
"Do you think it is impossible to have more than one element?" Kadyn chuckled. "Ain't I the living proof? I have nine elements. Yes, nine. So why can't any of you have two or three elements?"
They nodded, as all of them knew about it. At this moment, Hot Rod hesitated briefly and said. "But even if we could awaken more elements, what's the use? Rune decides how further one could go while I and Barret have already built our runes. I would be able to reach Rank 2 mage at most."
"Oh, you don't need to worry about it," Kadyn said nonchalantly. "I can remove your runes without harming your foundations. There are lots of amazing runes in our library, you can choose any of them. Though you will become an elementary mage once more, your potential will become limitless."
"Is that really possible?" Cecelia, who was standing silent all this time, couldn't help but ask in an agitated tone. "If that is possible I would like to remove my rune."
If anything she liked in the library, that was the runes. There were hundreds of Rank 6 runes in the library. Those runes were Radiant Rank. They were the highest rank treasure. Just one of them would cause chaos if people knew its existence.
Even Cecelia's clan that was one of the strongest in the Nightshade didn't have Rank 6 rune.. However, she was already a Rank 2 mage, so she could only watch them reluctantly — but now she had the chance to change her rune, she would not let the chance go.
