Chapter 116: Reawakening is.. possible (1)

Chapter 112

Elias blinked.

Beside him, Racheal and Eleanor also stared at Orion, their expressions completely blank. For several seconds, none of them seemed capable of processing what they had just heard.

The room fell into an unusual silence.

Orion had just told them something so outrageous that their minds seemed to have temporarily stopped functioning. His words had reached their ears, but their meaning took a little longer to sink in.

He could help them reawaken?

Not only had he somehow managed to reawaken himself, but he was also claiming that he could help other people achieve the same thing?

A few moments later, the three finally snapped out of their daze.

"What?!"

Their voices rang out almost simultaneously.

Orion nodded, a faint smile appearing on his face.

"Yes. I can help the three of you leave behind your current talent grades and undergo reawakening. You’ll have the opportunity to obtain talents far beyond what you currently possess."

"That..."

Racheal abruptly rose from her seat.

"That is good news!"

Her face lit up with excitement, and she struggled to contain the smile spreading across her lips.

If Orion wasn’t lying, and Racheal had absolutely no reason to believe he was, then this wasn’t merely good news.

It was incredible news!

She knew him well enough to understand that he wasn’t someone who casually made promises he couldn’t fulfil. He disliked lying, and there was no reason for him to fabricate something so significant just to deceive them.

If he had said he could help them reawaken, then there was a good chance he really could.

And if that was true...

Her current talent grade would no longer have to determine the limits of her future.

She could become something far greater.

"That... that’s impossible."

Elias’s voice interrupted her excitement.

He adjusted his glasses, which had slipped slightly down the bridge of his nose during his moment of sheer astonishment. His gaze remained fixed on Orion, as though he were desperately waiting for the young boy to reveal that this was nothing more than an elaborate prank.

But Orion didn’t laugh.

He didn’t suddenly break into a mischievous grin or tell them that he had been joking. Instead, his expression remained perfectly calm and serious, with no trace of amusement in his cold grey eyes.

It was obvious.

Orion wasn’t joking.

He was genuinely telling them that he possessed the ability to help them reawaken.

But how?

Reawakening was something people spoke about almost like a myth. It was an extraordinary phenomenon, so rare and mysterious that most people never even considered the possibility of experiencing it.

Even Orion’s own reawakening had been enough to leave Elias completely stunned.

He was still struggling to come to terms with the fact that the young boy before him had somehow achieved something most people could only dream about.

And now, he was being told that Orion could do the same for others?

How was that even possible?

"That’s impossible..." Elias muttered again.

His body trembled slightly, but this time, it wasn’t entirely from disbelief.

There was excitement mixed into his reaction, an almost uncontrollable excitement.

Because if what Orion was saying was true, then the fate determined by their current talents might no longer be permanent.

Their future could change.

The limits they had lived with for so long could finally be broken.

Elias slowly raised his head and looked at Orion again. This time, he didn’t repeat the word impossible.

Instead, he asked the one question that mattered.

"How?"

Orion smiled and slowly extended his palm forward.

A small, crystal-like egg materialized above it.

The object was exquisitely beautiful, its surface smooth and translucent, with a faint brilliance flowing beneath its exterior. It looked almost like a miniature crystal formation shaped into an egg.

Although it was small enough to rest comfortably in Orion’s palm, there was something unusual about it. A gentle white radiance seemed to emanate from within, giving it an almost otherworldly appearance.

The three immediately focused their attention on it.

Orion calmly explained, "This is an Origin Awakening Egg."

He allowed them a moment to examine the object before continuing.

"If I implant this into the body of someone who has already awakened, it will trigger the process of reawakening. There is a very high chance that the person will obtain an S-Grade talent after completing the process."

He paused briefly before adding, "However, if I implant it into someone who hasn’t undergone their first awakening yet, their chances of obtaining an S-Grade talent are practically guaranteed. There’s even a possibility of obtaining an SS-Grade talent."

"..."

The three stared at the little crystal egg, their eyes widening with every additional word Orion spoke.

An almost guaranteed S-Grade talent?

And even a chance of obtaining an SS-Grade talent?

That sounded like something straight out of a dream!

One had to understand just how extraordinary high-grade talents were in their world.

Among the entire human population, the number of people who awakened with S-Grade talents was ridiculously small.

The probability was roughly one in tens of millions.

Such individuals were considered extraordinary from the moment their talents were discovered. Their status was completely different from that of ordinary people. They were treated like royalty, showered with resources, and given opportunities that most warriors could never hope to obtain.

An S-Grade talent wasn’t merely a powerful ability.

It was a ticket to a completely different future.

Those who possessed one were destined to attract attention wherever they went. Powerful organizations, prestigious guilds, influential families, and even major factions would compete to recruit them.

Their growth potential was something ordinary people could only envy.

And yet, Orion was casually telling them that the little object in his palm could practically guarantee such a talent.

But that wasn’t even the most shocking part.

SS-Grade talents!

If S-Grade talents were already considered extraordinary, then SS-Grade talents were something else entirely.

Their rarity was on an entirely different level.

If the probability of obtaining an S-Grade talent was approximately one in tens of millions, then the probability of obtaining an SS-Grade talent was closer to one in a billion.

There had only been a handful of individuals who had ever awakened with such talents throughout the entire history of humanity.

Every single one of them had become an unparalleled legend.

Their names were recorded in history, their achievements studied by generations of warriors, and their existence regarded as proof that humanity could reach heights far beyond ordinary comprehension.

And now, they were sitting in front of someone who possessed a treasure capable of producing such individuals.

It was almost absurd.

Elias’s breathing gradually became uneven. His chest rose and fell rapidly as he struggled to contain the emotions surging through him.

Before long, he was practically hyperventilating.

His mind seemed unable to process the implications of what Orion had just revealed.

"Calm down."

Orion’s voice remained composed as an invisible force gently enveloped Elias.

Telekinesis.

The surging wave of mental energy acted like a soothing restraint, helping him regain control of his breathing before his excitement could spiral any further.

Elias slowly settled down.

The room fell silent once more.

Racheal stared at the egg with an expression that was difficult to describe. Eleanor remained quiet, seemingly trying to understand the implications of everything Orion had just said.

For a while, none of them spoke.

They needed time to accept the fact that something they had once considered impossible might actually be within their reach.

Meanwhile, Orion secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he hadn’t told them the complete truth about the Origin Awakening Eggs.

What he had revealed was already enough to leave the three of them overwhelmed. If they knew the actual capabilities of these treasures, he wasn’t sure what their reactions would be.

After all, guaranteeing an S-Grade talent wasn’t even remotely close to the true extent of their potential.

The probability of obtaining an S-Grade talent was an absurd 10,000 percent.

In other words, unless someone was extraordinarily unlucky, they would almost certainly obtain something even greater, such as an SS-Grade or even an SSS-Grade talent.

And that wasn’t all.

There was also a 100 percent guarantee of obtaining an SSS-Grade talent under the right conditions.

It was an absolutely ridiculous level of potential.

Compared to that, what Orion had just explained was practically a watered-down version of the truth.

He wasn’t willing to reveal everything to them just yet.

They were already struggling to process the information he had shared. If he casually dropped the full capabilities of the Origin Awakening Eggs on them, who knew whether they would be able to handle it?

They might genuinely collapse from the sheer disbelief.
