Immutable Apotheosis: The Enigma

A Talent

"Okay young ones, gather up, gather up. We are about to begin the most important days of your lives. My name is Hestia, I will be briefing you on what you're supposed to do from here on out, as well as how the structures work.

"Questions can be asked until then. As for right now, just open up your ears and listen. For starters..."

There was a moment of silence as all the young candidates kept quiet and stared intently at Hestia. They seemed ready to devour whatever information she held.

"First of all, for starters, my name is Hestia. I'll be one of your main supervisors of the Everlasting Palace. The other advisor unfortunately does not like interacting with others.

"To start of your journey of the path of main Divinity, you will have to first experience hardships and mortality In the Mortal Realms. But that is a topic for another time.

"Right now, I am sure you are all excited to start off on this path of Main Divinity. So I will not waste most of your time and will begin the filtering process." The beautiful goddess, who had transcendental beauty said without any expression on her face.

When the thousands of teenagers heard her words, they could not help but get nervous or break down into cold sweats. This was their turning points in life.

Whether one could become an ARC depended on today. Just because you remembered your past or saw visions of your prime, doesn't mean you can inherit your previous power.

For one Prime God, there might be more reincarnates out there. Whose to say you're the luckier one? The stronger a being was in the past Era, the more reincarnates they have in this one.

That was why Enigma still chose to try his luck with the test. Who knows, he might just have it but it was not powerful enough to manifest as visions or relocations.

"The test is simple, you just come to platform, stretch out your hand and concentrate on channeling your innate energy inside. If it glows, it means you are an ARC, if it doesn't, then you can enter the Palace and take someone as your master or work for some gods until you become one yourselves.

"The intensity of the light refers to how much of your past you remember and how much you can gain from it. For example, the lowest light, the Red color can at least get you one ability, weapon, talent or traits of your past.

"While the highest intensity of Voilet can get you seven. Don't fret though, just because you didn't become an ARC doesn't mean you don't have a future. ARC only gain special treatment of having more Providence and guidence than the rest of you.

"But effort can still outshine talent. But those words are useless since even the ARC have to put in effort as well. Hell, they would die if they didn't." Hestia giggled to herself, scaring the young teenagers out of their wits.

Some even began thinking that perhaps it wouldn't be that bad of a thing even if they didn't become ARCs. One of them was Enigma, he really doubted his chances.

"Enough from my side, the first candidate can climb up the platform and have a go at their luck. Remember, we do things in order here, I will not call upon you, but you, yourself know how your codes are arranged right?" She crossed her arms as she scanned everyone with squinted eyes.

Every teenager had no choice but to nod their heads in might when they felt the pressure oozing out of Hestia's frail looking body. This was Divine Presence, it was too powerful!!

Enigma looked up at Hestia and couldn't help but feel his body burn slightly. Whenever he got excited or really terrified, this feeling would well up inside his body, almost causing his nigh-existing emotions to burst into hyper-activity.

He didn't know why this was happening, but his sister had something similar occurring to her. Probably his mother too, and his younger sisters. But... why was he, a guy inflicted with it as well. Unless it was not a matetnal-type Inheritance but a dual-type Inheritance that could be inherited by all children?

Enigma shook his head to clear his thoughts and focused on suppressing his emotions. Luckily she stopped looking down at them and moved towards the corner of the classroom, signaling everyone to do the test.

For a moment, no god, or rather, godlin moved at all. But soon, a simple looking young brat stood up with excitement on his face as he proudly walked towards the platform.

He was quite the handsome little beast, with golden hair tied into a neat pony tail. His hair was not that long, do the pony tail was likewise a short, and adorable one.

His body was quite fit, as one could see the well defined muscular figure under his robes. His muscles weren't too thin, nor too thick, bring moderate and perfect.

But his most striking point would be his Darin smile, one that seemed to contain boundless confidence in himself.

He attracted the attention of everyone as he hurriedly and impatiently stretched out his arm towards the orb on the platform. Everyone held their breathes as this was the first person to go up and try their luck.

It would also determine whether people would be motivated to try as well or not. The boy closed his eyes and channeled his innate energy into the orb.

Vroom!!

The orb released a powerful Roar as it began glowing in Red, then Orange, then Yellow, Green, Blue. By now, everyone was shocked as they held their breathe, not willing to breathe at all.

Even Hestia was surprised and looked at the handsome younh boy with praise in her eyes. She murmured something under her breathe then stop paying attention to him. But moments later, she did not have a choice but to look once again.

VROOOOM!!!

The Roar was even louder as the light turned from Blue to Indigo. Then it finally turned Voilet, but that was not all. The orb... shattered, releasing a powerful Shockwave that pushed everyone away.

Hestia ignored that and instead peered into the Providence of the boy and couldn't help but cover her mouth in shock. Even his starting point was, heaven defying.

"Unbelievable..." Hestia covered her mouth in shock. But a moment later, she shook her head and announced, "There you have it, our first ARC. And a powerful one at that, next."

Everyone was brought back to attention as the second person stifly walked up towards the platform. But he froze a moment later and turned to look at Hestia with a bitter smile.

Hestia snapped her fingers, fixing the orb on platform back to its top condition within a split second. She then waved the person off and closed her eyes once again.

The person put their hand on the orb but even after a minute, nothing happened. Ten minutes passed and still nothing happened, but he was unwilling to move away as tears formed in his eyes.

"Move it, we don't have all day. There are still thousands of you out there." Hestia said without opening her eyes.

"But..."

"Don't test my patience child, there are more than a thousand godlins here, one less does no change to the total ratio. One advise, in this place, disobedience is scorned greatly at. Especially if you're not special, now move it." She still didn't open her eyes as she rebuked the person.

It might sound harsh, but she had a point. The total number of gods within the hundred and eight palaces, added up to more than billions. And the number of ARC didn't even reach up to a percent.

A percent might sound small, but it was still tens of millions. So with such a formation of Gods and True Gods, one less does no change right?

The person held in his tears as he walked out of the room. He was headed for the Palace to sign in under a god or a apply for work. Either way, he can find a descent path of becoming a god as well.

More and more candidates went forward to get their Fates checked. A lot of ARCs were born once again, almost surpassing the thousand threshold mark of the first batch.

Considering that this is the second batch, children like Su Han were not that much. Infact aside from here, the others were only blue and below. No Indigo, let alone a Voilet Reincarnate.

But something unexpected happened once again, another genius with the same level of Providence as Su Han came and immediately shattered the orb upon contact.
