“Now or never, whether I will live a good life or slog for the rest of my life, it all depends on this moment” Simon comforted himself as he regained some confidence.

“Simon, I am so nervous”

Ivan was trembling with sweaty covering his face.

“don’t be nervous”

Simon smiled faintly and stepped up the stage first, but because he too was nervous, and stepped up the stairs.

Then the staff from WoodLong’s helped placing the helmet on his head.

Slowly his consciousness blurred for a moment, then he arrived in completely unfamiliar environment.

A wild and warn wind blew past his face. He saw a green field that resembled that on classic windows wallpaper.

“This is the virtual world created by the smart computer?”

Simon was amazed. “This is so real”

Was it?

It was absolutely real!

“Roar!!!”

As Simon was overwhelmed with scenery, a thunderous roar rang out in the distance. As the sound reach his eardrums, he felt it was going to burst.

Quickly turning to side, he saw a giant white wolf that stood nearly two building tall running towards him.

“it’s fake! it’s all fake! there’s nothing to be afraid of”

Simon tried his best to move his body but it was not listening to him, as it was shaking uncontrollably, especially when he looked at the fast-approaching white wolf.

The fear in his heart became stronger and stronger. In the end, the white wolf, bite his head clean off.

Beep!

As if someone of was pulled of life support Simon felt his mind in exited state after exited the Virtual space. Bathed in sweat, his body shaking uncontrollably.

“That… that was scary”

Recalling the image early. Simon felt his hair stand and his heart rate increase. But before he could calm down, an excited voice sounded in his ears. “Some has awakened”

“Awakened? Could it be me?”

Simon was shocked as looked at the owner of the voice, Mark Wilson

He saw that Mark Wilson was looking directly at him with a satisfied smile.

“Kid, congratulation on being the luckiest one and awakening the power of fire”

“Awakening the power of fire”

Simon was so excited that he could not help himself, and seeing the headmaster and the class teachers all walking toward him.

The headmaster stretched out his hand enthusiastically before even reaching near him, but Simon did not mind as he also reached out to shake the principal’s hand.

Unfortunately, the headmaster walked past him, and the class teacher, as well as all those teachers that followed him. Making their way towards the person next to him.

“Student there, what your name?”

“Iv..Ivan, I am Ivan Tarnell”

“Ivan Tarnell, congratulation!”

“Student Ivan, you are the pride of our school”

Simon turned around and look at Ivan, who was surrounded by the headmaster and the teacher, his whole body was glowing with light orange colour.

Ivan was surround by small flames that danced around him like fairies, they were not burning with fuel but were instead flying around Ivan without any fuel.

Simon looked at himself, there was nothing.

“He awakened the power of flames? not me?” Simon felt like all world was collapsing in itself.

“At last, my reincarnated MC luck have run out”

Simon did not know how he left the stage. The greatest pain in life was to be give hope, only to have it taken way.

“Sigh, Fuck!”

Simon was not in the mood to watch the rest of the trials as he walked off to find a place to vent. As for other, yeah, they could go to hell!

“Simon”

Ivan voice rang out from behind Simon turned around and looked at Ivan who held his arm from behind which made Simon annoyed but turning back seeing Ivan face that was his best friend.

Simon forced some word out. “Congratulation! Iva…..n”

His word got stuck as he suddenly saw few lines of weird black character suddenly appeared before him.

Name: Ivan Tarnell

Race: Human

Astral skill: Fire Manipulation (Awakened, replicable)

“Bloody hell!”

Simon thought that he was hallucinating and he shook his head vigorously. Yet, the characters were stuck in front of his eyes and the remained there.

“The hell?”

he pulled away from Ivan, and the lines of words disappeared. When he touched Ivan again, the words appeared once again.

Name: Ivan Tarnell

Race: Human

Astral skill: Fire Manipulation (Awakened, replicable)

Whenever he come into contact with Ivan, the words would appear.

“Could his be my….?”

Simon did not want think too much about it as he overwhelmed from seeing the floating characters.

then Simon breathed in as he tried to replicate Ivan skill.

Woosh!

The black line spread and covered Ivan from head to toe, seeing his expression Simon understood only he could see the black aura that spread and cover Ivan.

A second later, the black aura left Ivan’s body and returned to Simon, but this time a new set of word appeared.

Replication completed. Install?
