Chapter 7: Shock, Joy & Sadness

Mike kept his eyes closed for 10 minutes before he opened them, But this time there was no silver hue in his eyes.

Lafurge appeared beside Mike and spoke with a smile, " Congratulations lad, you just hit a jackpot. "

Mike had no idea what happened, " What? what happened? how did I hit a jackpot? "

Looks like Mike had no idea about his own feat and what happened in the past 15 minutes.

" Mr.Lafurge, Do you know which Element Mike awakened? I don't know what silver color represent. " I could not hold back as I asked Lafurge.

Hearing them talk, Mike was first confused and then shocked, " Wait, you are saying I awakened Affinity for an Element? you are not pulling my leg right ? "

Larfurge grinned and said, " Of course we are not pulling your legs, you indeed awakened affinity for an element and the element you awakened is so rare that not a single person of the said element can be found in Thunder-Fire Valley. "

' Hurry up and tell us what that goddamn element is. '

Lafurge laughed and said to mike ignoring everyone's stares, " Come on Mike, I'll drop you to the Head-Quarters of Thunder-Fire Valley. "

After that, he just grabbed mike's shoulder and flew out of the Palace through the Window in the room.

' We can see that you are in a hurry from your expression but at least use the door. ' was what everyone participant was thinking.

I was also tongue-tied by the swiftness of Lafurge, He didn't even tell us what that silver color element was, damn...

' But that aside, I am really happy for mike, Maybe I can also awaken an element like that if I go through a few more hells like Lava pool and Thunder Platform? ' I couldn't help but fantasize about awakening an element just like mike, hahaha.

One of the participants asked, " anyone know what that silver color represent? "

" I've never heard of an element with silver color. "

" Me too, I've read records of Mayron in our tower but there was no mention of the silver color element. "

" But That Lafurge guy certainly knew about that element...."

Participants started to talk with each other while I just stood where I was, Maybe they didn't bother asking me cuz I was smaller than them, tsk, whatever.

10 minutes passed by this as we heard someone's footsteps behind us, where the door to the room was.

Everyone turned back and thought seeing the person, ' So you came back through the door this time huh? '

" Alright, you 5 passed the 2nd round and are now officially the disciples of Thunder-Fire Valley. But we still need to conduct the 3rd round to assess you, which then will decide where you will be sent to work and how much resources you will get. "

Seeing everyone nodding, Lafurge led everyone out of the room and entered the door that was in the north of the Palace Hall, the one which we saw right after entering the palace.

I badly wanted to ask things about Mike but I kept my patience in check and decided to finish the 3rd round before asking.

Soon, We entered the 3rd door, But this time there was nothing special in it, this room led us out of the palace because there was a waterfall, a pond, and greenery.

After everyone entered, Lafurge spoke, " This round is even more simple than previous ones, All you have to do is just to sit inside that pond while closing your eyes, No time limit, You can come out when you can't stay in it anymore, Just that the longer you stay in the pond, the more rewards you will get, The better working location and better resources. "

Hearing the details, Everyone arrived at the pond and sat down in it, The pond's water level only reached our neck even after we sat down.

Seeing everyone sitting down inside the pond, Lafurge spoke, " Once again, you can come out if you can't bear to stay anymore, and I will also drag you out if you are close to death. "

Hearing the last part, Sweat started to form on the participates face as they thought, ' close to death? your saying we have a chance of dying in this normal-looking pond? '

I was also surprised hearing that part because in the previous round which contains a dangerous-looking Lava pool and Lightning platform Lafurge clearly said that there is no chance of dying in them BUT we have a chance of dying in this normal looking pond?

Anyway, I closed my eyes after that.

After a few minutes, I was thinking about random things when I realized that the water was getting cold, but it didn't bother me.

Thunder-Fire Valley Head-Quarters.

Currently, Mike was sitting alone in a very Grand Hall, which had Inscribed patterns all over the hall's interior with a mixture of Red, Blue, and gold color designs.

Everyone who looked at him could say that he was a bundle of nervousness and excitement.

Suddenly winds ruffled and a Man in his sixties appeared, who wore a golden robe in which red and blue snaked danced around, His face had a faint smile, as his bearing oozed Sharpness and Ferocity despite his aged appearance.

He appeared in front of Mike and spoke, " Little guy, don't be nervous, Your life is going to change as fate has smiled upon you. "

Mike was shocked seeing someone appear in front of him and also scared as this person's Aura was too powerful.

" um..I...m-my....name is Athan...no my mistake, my name is mike...' Mike was sweating as he stuttered and screwed up while speaking.

The man chuckled and spoke, " Don't be nervous little guy, My name is Taifang and I am going to be your master, I'm sure you have many questions but hear me out first. "

" First thing is about your new life, You are going to be the holy son of Thunder-Fire Valley and will also inherit my position as Valley Master in the future. "

Mike was dumbfounded, it's like a bomb exploded in his head as his chin hit the ground.

Valley Master Taifang continued, " Second thing is that The element you awakened is none other then Extremely Rare Space Element, at least in my years of life experience, I have never seen a person with this element, But we have records that Space element excludes Faint silver lights in a person's eyes, I especially went to borrow this one and only space elemental fish from Pavilion Master of the Sky Lark Pavilion"

Speaking up to here, Valley Master grabbed the shoulder of Mike as both of them flew out of the Big palace and appeared towards a Pond. He waved his hand and a silver-colored fish appeared which he threw into the pond.

" Now go, stand inside the pond. "

Mike nodded as he walked towards the pond, Just as he stepped his feet into the pond, The Silver Fish came running towards him and started glowing.

It glowed for 30 seconds before it stopped.

Seeing the result Valley Master appeared excited despite his age, " It almost reached high-Grade, hahaha. "

Mike then came out as Valley Master retrieved the fish.

" Valley Master is it possible to enhance the Affinity Grade of an element? " Mike asked.

Valley Master had this grin on his face as he nodded, " It is indeed possible to increase the affinity grade of the element. "

" I see, By the way, Valley master...." seeing Mike's hesitance, Valley master said, " What do you want? You can state your wishes, after all, we will be an official master and disciple after the ceremony tomorrow. "

" This...I have a friend who is like my brother, he doesn't have an elemental affinity, But I heard that an Affinity Pill can awaken an Affinity inside a person..." Mike's words were cut short by Valley Master Taifang who spoke.

" So you want to ask for an Affinity Pill for your friend? "

Seeing Mike nodding his head, Valley Master sighed, " It's not that I don't want to give you an Affinity Pill but we simply can't produce it anymore, The sources of Thunder and Fire has weakened a lot since the previous Valley Master used them to create a lot of pills 300 years ago, Thus the source weakened, and Now we need to wait for 200 years more before creating another batch of Affinity pills, "

" I see..." Mike was depressed as he very much wanted to help Athan.

Seeing his expression Valley Master Spoke, " I know he is your best friend, But you and he are now people of different worlds, Normal Elemental Warriors only have a Life Span of 100-150 years while Elemental Sorcerers can live longer as they continued to become stronger, Of course not all elemental warriors can open their Psychic Realm so they may only live for 100 years at most. "

Hearing this truth, Mike was even more saddened as he murmured, " he works way harder than me, and he deserves to get an elemental affinity more than me. "

Valley master shook his head, " Such is fate mike, you can only accept it. "
