Lucy began to make her way towards the stadium..
Her footsteps were delibrate, her hips kept swaying left and right, making all attentions to be on her..
The boys became even more jealous, they all needed a beautiful girl like this..
She moved with confidence, her bright smile never fading away..
Soon enough, she reached the stage
"Miss Lucy, simply place your palm on the orb and channel your willpower and energy into it". Miss Kate said, her voice calm and composed.
Lucy nodded and placed her palm slightly.
Vroom....
WHOOSH!!!
The place instantly changed.....
The degree started dropping and a gush of cold and freezing wind pass by..
Then, a screen materialized showing her talent information.
{ Talent information: Ice manipulation
Rank : A rank
Class: Mage class
Description: A mage who controls the cold. The talent is valuable and only few people can awaken it}
Seeing this information , Lucy's smile became even more brighter.. and attractive..
With a victorious grin on her lips, she calmly left the stadium, heading towards her usual spot..
Meanwhile, throughout the hall, the murmurs never died out.
"Fuck! An A rank talent".
"Seriously I'm already jealous".
"An ice manipulation talent.. we should call her the ice queen ".
"She's amazing. Jared is such a lucky guy".
"I wish she could be mine".
"Come to think of it, Jared and Lucy really make a great couple".
"Yeah! That's true. I'm really curious on what the so-called second strongest would get '.
" She's not just only pretty, but she got a nice talent.. such a lucky girl".
The hall was now buzzing with excited chatter and murmurs, but eventually it died out.
The ceremony for several minutes as several people either keep awakening a low level talent or none
But the next person shocked the entire hall..
" Mister Leo.. please come forward". Miss Kate called out.
A young man with beautiful green hair and calm expression calmly came out..
His expression was neutral, there wasn't even a bit of anxiety..
Afteall, this was the number one in the academy, a person with alot of backing and good family background.. He is well skilled physically and intellectually..
He calmly placed his palm on the orb, and it instantly lit up..
WHOOSH!!
{ Talent information: Wind manipulation
Rating: SS
Class:mage}
The hall became silent, their eyes were glued to the glowing screen.. and no one even noticed when Leo left the stage..
Instantly the hall began to buzz with murmurs, this time.. it was louder than before..
This continued for several minutes , before eventually, a person's name was called that made the whole crowd to be more eager to watch..
"Mogana". Miss Kate called out, and a girl with blonde hair and beautiful brown eyes stepped out, each step was precise and calm, her gaze was calmly scanning everyone..
This was also a top students, she's the third most strongest students, not only is she intelligent, but she's also good at swordsmanship..
Mogana calmly placed her hands onto the orb, and instantly a yellow glow plused intensively, making everyone to shield their eyes..

Seeing this, murmurs instantly ripple throughout the hall.
"Fuck! Another SS rank talent".
"Would all the top students keep getting SS rank talent?".
"Gosh! They're all lucky ".
"I'm really jealous ".
" Why'd it feel like we're all left out, while the top students are the one gaining more advantage.. this is unfair ".
The murmurs kept buzzing, and everyone was now discussing about the talent of the two top students... Right now, everyone was now on edge.. but Miss Kate didn't pay attention to the crowd, because she was lost in her thoughts
' Two SS rank talent has been awakened within a span of two hours. Is our school Lucky this year?'. She thought.
' It looks like the future protectors of human civilization wouldn't be taken lightly '. She thought.
The ceremony continued as usual, more people failed, some awakened weak talent while some awakened average talent.
Jared was already lost in thought, because the number of people who failed was more than those who awakened.
He was sincerely hoping to be among the awakened for a better future.
Several years ago when the apocalypse hadn't arrived. What people wanted was gold,fame riches, power and.... women.
That was all they craved for..... But after the first wave of the ferocious beast... Humanity began to fear... Death occurred and everyone thought humanity was doomed... That all of humanity would be wiped out of existence .
The government at that time decided to buy more guns, more bullets, more bombs... And he also created a squad with more better equipment.. and called them - the elite squad.
When the government announced the good news about the elite squad, the public became reassured and almost everyone was now hoping for the government so called elite squad to protect them from those vicious beasts.
The first encounter with the beast was somehow promising, because of the explosion bomb.. the elite squad was able to push back the beast.... But it came with a cause.
That day , hundreds of the elite squad members were killed , but in return... The public opinion on the elite increased .
The elite squad members became rich.... Their fame Increased and then they acquired women.
But unfortunately, it didn't last for long, because soon... The beast arrived again, and everyone was putting their hopes on the elite squad.
The elite squad and the beasts clashed for several weeks, but even with all the weapons, all the guns, the bombs... The elite squad was killed.... Everything they built, they owned was destroyed.
Then the beast began their killing spree and started killing, slaying, hunting humans one by one.
It was hell for the human race, but soon, people began to find out that they started awakened extraordinary powers, soon enough, the tales of awakeners began.
With the new found power, humanity was able to fight the beast and push them backwards, that was when everything all began..
*****
( Present)
The awakening ceremony was already at the peak, when a name was then called out, a name that we all have been waiting for...
"Jared. Step out". Miss Kate called out.
Yes, it's time for our dear MC to awaken his talents

Chapter TwoThe silence that followed the collapse was heavy, broken only by the hiss of escaping steam from a ruptured pipe somewhere beneath the ruins and the steady, rhythmic dripping of water.Kim lay flat on his stomach on the surviving sliver of the hallway floor, his fingers still locked around Mary’s belt. His muscles burned, every fiber of his body screaming in protest. Below them, the pit was a churning cauldron of shadow and settling dust, completely devoid of the sickly green light that had illuminated it moments before."Are you... are you okay?" Kim’s voice was raspy, scraped raw by the ozone and smoke."I’ve had better Tuesdays," Mary muttered, her arms trembling as she hung suspended over the drop, her boots dangling just inches above the jagged rebar protruding from the rubble. "Pull me up, Kim. Before the rest of this hallway decides to join the basement."With a desperate grunt, Kim hauled backward. Mary scrambled, her hands gripping the edge o

The dying star of green fire in Kidda’s hands didn't expand outward in a clean shockwave; it imploded with a sound like a church bell tolling underwater.Kim didn’t have time to flinch. The air pressure shifted so violently that his lungs felt like they were trying to invert themselves. The blue spark still hissing from the copper pipe junction flickered, fought, and then surged with a terrifying, blinding intensity. The entire house groaned—a structural shriek of old wood and forgotten iron protesting against forces it was never designed to hold."Mary!" Kim roared over the mounting roar of the grid.He didn’t need to look back to know she was moving. A heavy thud echoed behind him, followed by the slide of metal across splintered floorboards. Mary had abandoned the stove and lunged across the tilting gap, her boots finding traction on a beam that had miraculously held its shape. In her hands, she clutched a heavy, rusted length of rebar she’d yanked from the rubbl

The green light flared again, a sickly emerald strobe that cast Kidda’s shadow against the exposed, splintered subflooring. The stench of ozone and scorched earth rolled up from the dark, hot and heavy enough to make Kim’s eyes water.Kidda wasn’t just trying to throw the beam off anymore; he was trying to tear the house apart from the inside out. The neon rot on his arm flared back to life, no longer blinking but burning with a furious, solid glare. The ancient joists around him began to hum, vibrating so violently that the dust dancing in the air formed tight, geometric patterns."He's tethering to the foundation," Mary barked over the rising drone. She didn't wait for Kim's acknowledgment. She dropped to both knees, the rough edge of a split floorboard biting into her slacks, and drove the second iron wedge into the main support beam running parallel to the hole.She didn't have a mallet. She used the heel of her boot, striking the cold iron with raw, frantic desperation. Thud. Thu

The blast hit his back before they even touched the floor. It wasn't just heat—it was a heavy, concussive slap that knocked the wind right out of him and skidded them across the greasy floorboards. Behind them, the whole counter simply ceased to exist, replaced by a shower of burning splinters and melted laminate.Kim rolled onto his side, coughing violently, his vision dropping into black-and-white patches. His sleeve was on fire. He beat it out against his thigh, his eyes tracking Kidda through the smoke. The bastard was just walking through the fire. The flames didn't touch him; they seemed to part around his boots. His eyes were huge, glassy, locked onto Kim like a kid about to crush a bug.Mary was already up on one knee by the sink. Her face was white, covered in soot, but she wasn't crying. She reached into her coat, pulling out the heavy iron spike they’d taken from the capital."Stop trying to block him," she said, her voice dropping int

The smoke didn’t lift. It stayed low, thick and yellow, smelling like burnt hair and whatever chemical shit Kidda had mixed into his sparks. Kim hacked, spitting a mouthful of gray grit onto what was left of the linoleum. His lungs felt raw, like he’d been swallowing broken glass.Through the haze, Kidda hadn’t even moved. He was just standing there by the ruined doorframe, his hands dangling at his sides like he’d just finished a casual stroll. He looked down at the last few orange embers of Kim’s wall dying out on the floorboards, then looked up, his face blank."Is that it?" Kidda asked. He sounded genuinely disappointed, which was worse than the laughing. "You blew your whole load on a shield?"Kim couldn't answer. If he opened his mouth, he was going to puke or pass out. His thighs were shaking so bad his knees kept knocking together. Behind him, Mary’s fingers shifted, digging hard into the leather of his belt. It was the only thing keeping him upright."Kim," she breathed again
No running
The heavy oak door didn’t just open; it exploded inward, spraying splinters and plaster dust into the cramped hallway.Kim flinched, his hand instantly flying out to shove Mary behind his back. She didn’t scream, but her fingers dug so hard into the meat of his shoulder that it stung. Through the settling gray haze, Kidda slouched into the room. He didn’t look like a terrifying warlord. He looked bored, which made it so much worse. He kicked a piece of the shattered door frame out of his way with a dull thud.When his eyes landed on them, cornered against the kitchen counter, his shoulders started shaking. The laugh started as a wheeze in his throat before tearing out of him."Hahaha!! Do you really think that you can survive?"He pointed a finger at Kim, mocking him. Kidda's voice was loud, scraping against the low ceiling of the house. He took another step forward, completely unbothered by the fact that Kim was already drawing on his own energy."My ability is special," Kidda sneere
