Chapter 11: Your Wish Is Pending

[Kumon the Saint, 100th Empress of the Empire, Bringer of Justice, Reviver of the Innocence and The One Who Should Never Be Disturbed]

In this world, everyone except the very few can use Magic.

Each having their own single major attribute.

Generally, it’s water, fire, earth, light, and wind.

There are also the more unique attributes like space, mind, metal, beast and etcetera.

It seems there is no darkness element yet in this world. Darkness exist in the absence of light. It’s simply nothingness. Thus, no matter how much they tried, the mages still could not figure it out. 

These traits are inheritable thus lead to the existence of the many Houses for the general and unique attributes.

Each having their own training, secret skills and arts passing through the generation.

Water for example is the specialty of two major Houses. House Aqua and House Seaworth. House Aqua produce among the best healers. By understanding the water inside the body, they are able to understand and heal people and creatures alike. Although, the branch they trained specializing as Blood Assassins are the terror of the Aqua house. Don’t worry, aside from me, the Empress and a very few people actually know the existence of the ‘Blood Benders’. Allowing the ‘Saint’ image of the Aqua house to stand strong despite the mountain of bodies they gathered for the past 1000 years.

House Seaworth lies near the sea. They command the Imperial Navy. Using their arts, the sea itself is their own web. Each enemy on sea, are light bright red dots for them to devour. Ensnaring the enemies with a siren song and deploying fogs to lead the enemies by the nose. Engulfing them with brute strength of the sea wrath. The sea is ruthless and they are the embodiment of this single value.

As an individual, these attribute are something they are born with. But they can choose their ‘Job’. Upgrading their ‘Job’ will rise their status points. A ‘Soldier’ rise in Intelligence and Wisdom have a lower proportion compared to the rise in Strength. But a ‘

For a soldier, they will learn new Skill after a certain level. For a level 2 soldier, they will learn . Attributes and Job do have their computability that allow easier growth. So it’s normal for Earth or Fire attribute to become a ‘Blacksmith’ compared to become a ‘Healer’.

A soldier can become a ‘Knight’ after they reach the maximum level of level 10. Providing better status increment and even more new Skills to learn. They can increase this until they

At any point of a time, a person can only equip one Job. But that doesn’t mean they can’t have multiple Jobs.

If the same soldier is a ‘Priest’. An Evolution path is available for them once both ‘Job’ reach the required level.   

Soldier + Priest = Holy Knight or Combat Doctor

Soldier + Tamer = Beast Rider

Blacksmith + Mage = Enchanter

Then there are the anomalies. Also known as the higher-tier attributes.

Differ from the masses, those with higher-tier attribute is connected to the World Voice. And contrary to its name, there’s no voice, just a pop up screen that the person will have an access too with an annoying ‘ting’ sound.

Out of the twenty billion beings in the nameless planet, less than a hundred are these anomalies ever existed at a time.

And with great power comes great responsibilities, rather, force responsibilities.

They can’t choose a job. They are given a job linked by their attributes the moment they are born. As they perform their rolls in this nameless world, their cultivation will increase. Opening up new skills in their job-attribute specific system. Even if they become an emperor, they won’t get the additional buffs linked with the job.

Their existence is critical for the world, albeit rather weird.

One example is Reina the current “Desk Guild Master”. As the highest figure of the Adventures Guild, she commands the largest armed force in the world. The adventures. But the “Desk Guild Master” doesn’t have any defense or offence capabilities. A pure supporter type existence that provide extra experience, defense, offense and other type of buffs to all registered adventurers. Globally at all times.

As for Kumon, the is a new anomaly that was created solely for her.

For her to sleep abundantly, she holds the ‘Wish’ attribute of a genie. An AI support program that allows anything she wishes to become true. Bypassing any requirements or obstacles to achieve that wish. Reducing the need to find food or other necessities that might disturb her sleeping time.

For her to sleep peacefully, she is given the ‘Truth’ unbreakable protection as well as their unique cultivation method. While being the link to the physical plain and the Fate, Kumon’s prowess will increase with time. By simply sleeping, she will gain more ‘Wish Points’ as her soul will be nearer to Fate than the physical plane.

For her to sleep freely without the normal chain of servitude binding a genie, she is given the status of a wonderer. Unbounded by the hold of servitude to grant whatever wish beseech to her, Kumon is free to do as she please while roaming to complete her 101 Sleeping Goals.

Her job scope is very simple. A ‘Wondering ‘Truth’ Genie’ grants wishes of a lucky few by changing Fate itself. A chaos capable to rewritten the Lauh Mahfuzh itself. A twist though, each wish will need to be paid with a similar amount of equivalent value.

 Lauh Mahfouz: the book where all events are written.

Secretly smiling in her heart, Kumon put on her serious face.

Waiting for her first customer to come.  

Unknowing the she had swatted down the same customer twice for noisily disturbing her sleep.
