Woosh!

The black word transformed into a black light that shot toward the center of his head.

Immediately after, extremely condensed energy exploded in Simon’s head and swept through his entire brain.

Vooosh!

Simon felt like he had been struck by lightning as a heart-piercing pain struck his nerves. He let out a painful scream, hugging his head as he rolled around.

“Simon, what happened?”

The sudden development frightened Ivan, and his other classmates also surrounded him

“My…head…. Hurts!”

Simon felt his head was burning and melting and reforming all at the same time, sweat rolled down his forehead. For second, he thought that something will split his head open and crawl out of it.

“Simon, wait I will call for an ambulance”

Ivan took out his cell phone and was about to dial for ambulance.

At that moment, the school’s teachers and Mark Wilson who had noticed the commotion, also walked over.

“What happened?” the headmaster asked nervously.

But the one that replied to headmaster was Mark Wilson with look of delight.

“Congratulation, Headmaster”

“Mr. Mark, what do you mean?” the headmaster appeared dumbfounded.

“If I am not wrong, this student is awakening his Astral skill” Mr. Mark said with a smile.

“Awakening his Astral skill”

The headmaster and teachers were taken aback. The class teacher was even more puzzled.

“But... But Simon already went through the trial earlier, he did not awaken, now it only happened now?”

“That’s normal!” Mark Wilson smiled faintly.

“Under normal circumstances, many awaken when going through the trial, but there are few that awaken their skill later from other, we can say this as a buffer period”

Hearing which headmaster and teachers had a look of understanding and realization.

Then it hit them.

“So that means there are two third-year student have successfully awakened their Astral skills this year”

Hearing this every one of the teachers where happy as giving birth to two Astral Lord was considered a great contribution to the world the reward, they would will be remarkable.

“Congratulation’s, headmaster!”

“Thank you, thank you”

The headmaster was so happy that he wished to give both a bear hug on the spot but thinking about his image as the headmaster he reframed from it.

In the past it was already nice to have one awakened. But this year, two of them awakened, and good things came in pairs.

The onlooking students were whispering among themselves, their eyes full of envy.

“What kind of gods give luck do these guys have?”

“Where many of us didn’t manage to awaken our Astral skills, but these two did? Why?”

You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

Jealousy disoriented people, it would have been fine if it had been someone else, but what kind of people were Simon and Ivan.

They had average grades.

They came from average families.

They had nothing else other than their looks, yet they were the ones that awakened, was being handsome a condition to awaken Astral skills.

“Simon, how are you feeling?”

Seeing Simon gradually stabilize, Ivan asked with concern.

“I’m…Okay”

Simon wiped the sweat from this forehead and forced a smile. His face was paled, but the experience just now gave him a run for his money.

“Simon, we are Astral Lords now”

Ivan was full of excitement as he laughed, shaking Simon hand vigorously, for second there Simon felt his arm was going fall off.

But he pretended to be shock as watch everyone eye on him

“Student Simon, congratulation you too have also awakened the power of fire”

Hearing the headmaster and the school teacher congratulate him, Simon was thrilled.

Awakening was exciting but what excited him more was the Astral Skill he awakened a law-defining skill ability to replicate other Astral skill.

Do it not sound awesome!

But then Simon become caution because the power to he had was to overpowered! It needed to be hidden until he gains the power that no man gain can threaten him.

Subsequently, the school teacher and others returned to the stage to continue the trial they also invited Simon and Ivan to stage.

“Simon, Ivan, first of all, congratulation on successfully awakening your Astral skill and becoming an Astral Lord.

“Thank you” both said.

“Both of you should know that Astral skills are mainly divided into four types: - Elemental Manipulation Type, Body Transformation Type, Mental Type and Unique Special-Type

And the power of fire that both of you have awakened comes under Elemental Manipulation Type. Which also have the most offensive capability on Elemental Manipulation Types”

Simon and Ivan nodded repeatedly. Different Astral skill had different uses.

Some were combat-type and other were support type each contributing something in humanity.

And some where special like mind reading, invisibility, etc.

“Some had different usages, but combat related Astral lords were most sort after in this world filled with Dreadbeasts”

Mark Wilson smiled and said, “So I hope that both of you can join our WoodLong Astral company”

“In the name of the branch’s general manager, I assure that as long as you join us, you will enjoy the following benefits!

Firstly, you will gain an Entry-Level Astral Technique! I assume both of you have heard of it, right?”

Mark Wilson smiled and said, “its Astral technique that enable us Astral lords to gather Astral energy from the environment faster to grow stronger faster, than someone without Astral Technique”

Hearing this Simon was shocked.

Since the emergence of the dimensional rifts, the Astral energy had appeared on Earth. However, ordinary people could not sense them. Only the Astral lords who had awakened their Astral skill could clearly sense and absorb the Astral energy.

Because it can define how faster an Astral Lords can grow stronger but only giant organization and government had them so Astral Lords are to join either one of them to get access to it.

“Secondly, we will arrange a stand-alone villa for each of you, of course, the villas are company properties, so you only have the right to reside in them, not buy or sell them!” Mark Wilson continued.

Even if Astral technique is unknown to them, and they don’t know the value of that technique, but the stand-alone villas was something else because they know the value of a villa in this godforsaken world where they gave security and protecting to their loved one was more valuable.

And if you wanted to live in a villa, you needed to have not only the money but also authority and status to go along with it. Out of the five million people in the entire Riverstone Base City, no more than ten thousand could afford to live in villas.

Yet now, as long as the two of them agreed to join The WoodLong Astral company, they would be part of this club of five thousand and live in villas. How could they not be excited?

Mark Wilson was very satisfied with their expressions, and he continued, “thirdly, the employee of WoodLong Astral company is naturally paid a salary of 50,000 a month, not including allowances”

“I believe that in entire Riverstone Base City, there is almost no other organization that can provide such generous. Please consider if you would like to join our Riverstone Base City!”

“Mr. Mark, there’s no need to think!”

Ivan was already tempted, and without any hesitation he was going to immediately agree to it.

However, Simon pulled on his hand and said “Ivan, this is a major life event. You should at least discuss this with your parents?”

Hearing this Ivan’s brain worked overtime as he puzzled together what Simon was saying because Ivan knows Simon was always good with his brain and he would never do things without thinking twice.

So, he joined in with it

“Yes, yes I should ask my father first if not he would break my legs”

Ivan laughed and stopped.

Mark Wilson observed their expression and his face darkened as he looked at Simon but he still kept his smile and said “Yes this is indeed a major life event. You should discuss it with your parents. This is my business card. You can give me a call once you’ve made up your minds!”

When Mark Wilson was giving Simon the card, he leaned toward him and whispered into his ears.

“Know your place, brat”

The deep voice was heard in his ear, then Simon felt shaver down his spine as Mark targeted his killing intend at Simon.

For a second there Simon felt he was standing before that white wolf again but this he was in real life face to face.

After seeing the paled face Simon, Ivan was concerned as he quickly said.

“Thank you, Sir!”

As he took Marks business card from his hand and pulled Simon with him of the stage.
