Chapter 127: Element awakening ceremony! Alphonso’s turn!
Chapter 127
Oliver was feeling nostalgic. His home was also like this, so it gave him a familiar feeling.
The next day, all of them gathered in the huge room on the ground floor just close to the entrance.
Alison was sitting before them with her legs crossed as she scrutinized each one of them intently.
“Let us begin now. First of all, I noticed that some of you have yet to awaken your elements while some of you have done this already. So for those who have not yet awakened their element, we will be doing that first,” she said and added,
“The first course of training will involve honing your elemental espera and the associated manipulation training over your element.”
There was a hint of excitement in their eyes when they heard this. They were going to witness the process of others awakening their element.
They were really curious about what element their peers were about to awaken.
“This here is a vial carrying Honorable Stars’ Essence, the very thing that will serve as a catalyst to help you awaken your element.”
She instructed as she got up from the chair she was sitting on. Her hand was suddenly carrying a vial containing a greenish-colored glowing liquid, which was most likely the Honorable Stars’ Essence.
“This is Honorable Stars’ Essence, and it will act as a catalyst to stir your espera and awaken an attribute to it. Know that the attribute could be purely random or might not match with your parents’ either. Although that happening is rare, it is not impossible. There have been several cases where individuals awaken very different elements in contrast to their parents’ elements. However, usually, it is the same element.”
She paused before continuing,
“You all might be aware of this potion to some extent. Know that this is a priceless thing and not anyone can get their hands on this. You all are fortunate and thus were able to get this chance so easily. However, the common exorcist out there might need to pour their life savings just to get one if they had the connections to buy one.”
She gazed at the three kids who were going to awaken their elements and told them,
“Alright, come forward when I call your name. I will provide you with one bottle of Honorable Stars’ Essence and help you awaken an element. Those who have already awakened, stand to the side and watch quietly.”
“This Honorable Stars’ Essence was made from extracts obtained from harsh environments by very skilled alchemists out there using starlight as a catalyst. You can guess how precious it is. Each vial contains the distilled essence of starlight.”
She looked at their fascinated expressions and further said, “It’s a coveted treasure that even myself had to wait to obtain one. Be grateful to your clans for arranging them for you lot.”
“Now, come one by one, Alphonso.”
She gazed at the properly dressed kid with neatly combed hair, “You come first.”
Alphonso realized that he was the first one. He did not hesitate and walked up to her. He was also curious about what element he was going to awaken.
He did have some hypotheses in his mind that predicted what element he might awaken but was not too sure.
Those assumptions of his were solely based on what elements his parents and grandparents had.
If it was going to be a random element, then his guesses would be useless.
“I am ready, teacher Alison!”
He was eager to awaken a new element.
“Drink this and sit down in front of me. Also, keep yourself focused during this whole time.”
“Yes, ma’am!”
He politely nodded and gracefully sat on the straw mat with his legs folded.
He slowly started to gulp down the potion that was given to him. A burst of energy followed after it inside his body, and he closed his eyes and directed his focus to channeling the overflowing power inside.
As the essence coursed through him, Alphonso felt a surge of warmth in his core and focused all his concentration on the awakening process.
Everyone watched with anticipation.
Oliver glanced at Evelyn and Bella beside him and Daniel next to them. It seemed only they had awakened their elements beforehand.
The rest, Amber, Alphonso, and Nadia, would be undergoing this ritual or process of sorts to awaken their elements.
He felt lucky to not hastily try to bind the target to Evelyn. He had to find an opportunity to get in physical contact with her too for some moments.
He observed the change in Alphonso’s reactions and remembered his own past experience. By now, he should have awakened the element already.
He had earlier offered Nadia the Honorable Stars’ Essence that he had received from the Black Codex Federation. However, at that time, she had refused his reasons due to her personal conflicts and dignity.
She would have long awakened a water element had she drunk that Honorable Stars’ Essence he had given her in the past.
But this was also not a problem now since she no longer had any reason to refuse such a potion from the teacher they had now.
He could not help but feel a bit glad since Nadia was now going to awaken an element too. He was also going to reap the benefits now since awakening an element was a major thing.
What Alison had not told them was that there was a chance of failure as well, to be not able to awaken anything. But she did not tell them for obvious reasons.
Each one of them present here had extraordinary backgrounds and bloodlines. There was no chance that they were not going to awaken anything at all.
Had he already targeted Evelyn earlier, he would have missed this good opportunity…
One thing he was feeling curious about was what reward he was about to obtain.
He felt a bit perplexed since what would be tenfold of an elemental attribute?
Wouldn’t that also be an element itself?
Or maybe it was more of a thing related to manipulation and mastery? Unlikely but possible nonetheless.
“Uhmm…”
Oliver heard Alphonso release a grunt as he exhaled and opened his eyes.
“I succeeded! Teacher, I have awakened an element!”
He excitedly said to her.
“Hmm. Show it then,” Alison calmly said.
“Yes, here it is…”
With a triumphant grin, Alphonso demonstrated his newfound element with excitement.
He concentrated as a huge gust of wind started blowing out from the direction of his stretched-out hand. The tip of his fingertip had a strong air current gathering non-stop.
“Air element, great. You could specialize in your speed and sharpness. The Fallen Heart clan patriarch doesn’t have the air element, and neither should your mother have it as far as I remember, so it’s a random element. Wait with the others while the rest complete their awakening ceremony.”
She pointed for him to stand to the side, which he did as he went up to the others. He was congratulated.
“Congratulations! Your element is awesome!” Bella sincerely praised him, which he accepted graciously by thanking her.
Bella’s sincere praise lifted Alphonso’s spirits even higher. He nodded gratefully, he had been quite down since some days—especially after coming at last place.
