God Of Body

Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Kian's Talent



"A Demonic Talent?

Interesting!" the old man muttered with amusement.

"Boy, go ahead. We will be expecting a lot from you," the old seer said in an impressed tone.

As stated before, the old man—or Twilight—didn't care about factions at all. They were only introduced to sow competition among the competitors.

Just before heading toward the Sin faction, Dragzul paused and turned to the Virtue faction, where Silverlina stood cold and aloof.

"Hey, darling Lina, leave those weaklings and join me. Together, we would be an unstoppable combo."

"See, how arrogant!"

"Haha, what is he saying? A Virtue faction member joining the Sin faction? Is that even allowed?"

"I don't know, but it's possible. Still, I doubt anyone would join after knowing their true nature."

"But will our Goddess Silverlina stay in our faction?"

Everyone turned their attention to Silverlina, eagerly awaiting her response to the proposal.

To the crowd's relief, Silverlina frowned, her expression one of pure disgust.

"Just get lost..." Silverlina didn't even spare him a second glance as she coldly rejected the proposal.

Her reply was swift and precise, leaving no room for negotiation, as she had already judged Dragzul's personality.

Dragzul's face fell, but he dared not push further, knowing the old man was still watching.

"Hmph... Childish. You will regret it," Dragzul snorted before striding toward the Sin Faction, where its members greeted him warmly.

"Tsk..."

For some reason, Silverlina wasn't worried about his threat at all.

"Next!" the old man barked.

One by one, the awakening continued, and soon it was Ben's turn.

"May the Lord stay with me..." Ben whispered nervously, stepping onto the stage.

Kian felt increasingly tense as the deciding moment of fate drew near. But one thing was certain: whether he gained his talent or not, he would give his all to earn the chance to reincarnate.

On the awakening stage, Ben glanced at Silvy, who was still focused solely on Kian. A pang of jealousy stirred within him.

"Focus, boy. Don't let your mind wander to materialistic and worldly things," the old man scolded sternly. "Don't forget—you're a living ghost now."

"Cough!"

Ben cleared his throat awkwardly, his face heating up. His actions earned him a few disdainful gazes from the crowd, silently chastising him for his foolishness.

Ben hurriedly entered the portal, as if trying to escape from his embarrassment.

Kian watched intently as the mysterious golden texts began to emerge, eager to see if Ben had lied about anything regarding himself until now.

The old man soon announced once again:

[ Name: Benjamin Wilson ]

[ Faction: Virtue ]

[ Soul Force: 90 (Excellent) ]

[ Talents: Holy Sword Excalibur (Legendary), Perverted Hero Constitution (Epic) ]

"Whoa!"

"What? Dual talents?"

"Well, this was completely unexpected—especially coming from a bubbly human like him."

After Ben's talents were revealed, there was an uproar of astonishment and surprise.

No one would have ever guessed Ben would be the first to awaken dual talents among tens of thousands of participants.

Kian watched with amazement as Ben came outside with a shiny golden sword that radiated holiness. It was almost the complete opposite of Dragzul's aura.

Ben had a perverted smile as he came outside. He seemed satisfied with the talents he had received, even though his second talent was weird—perverted, actually.

Ben glanced at Silvy triumphantly, expecting a nod of appreciation for his amazing dual talents.

Instead, he was met with a disgusted look from Silvy in response.

"I knew this fatso was a pervert!" Her expression seemed to say this.

The old Seer gave Ben a look of approval.

"Impressive, boy. I'm surprised you have such potential in you. Dual talents are really rare, but you need to work on improving your soul force," the old seer commented, stroking his beard thoughtfully.

"Haha... I knew I was going to be awesome," Ben beamed with pride, puffing his chest.

"Foolish child. Let's see if you can laugh when the real challenges come. Now get to the side," the old man said sharply.

Ben shrugged and made his way to the Virtue Faction with a victorious smile.

People cast him jealous and envious looks, while some members of the Virtue Faction eagerly extended their invitations.

"Join us, Perverted Hero... You can do anything you want with us," a few beautiful human ladies teased, fluttering their eyelashes seductively.

Ben's eyes were glued to their curvaceous figures as he strutted closer to Silvy.

"Silvy, see? Didn't I say we'd make an unstoppable team?" Ben asked, his eyes filled with infatuation as he admired her beauty.

Ben couldn't take his eyes off her pointy ears, which seemed to draw him in with an allure that was impossible to ignore. Her flawless complexion and the icy glint in her gaze added to her mystique, while her well-defined figure completed the captivating package.

Silverlina, unimpressed, ignored him completely, deeming his words foolish and choosing instead to focus on Kian, waiting eagerly for his turn.

Ben glanced at Kian, feeling a pang of envy. What was it about Kian that had drawn Silvy's attention so strongly?

He was puzzled but harbored no hostility inside.

Kian ascended the platform, each step filled with nervousness.

Under everyone's scrutinizing gaze, Kian glanced at the Mysterious Old Portal that dwarfed everyone present.

It was otherworldly, as if crafted in ancient times for an unknown reason.

"Another terribly suffered soul? Oh, a pure one at that," the old man scrutinized Kian from head to toe with his sharp, piercing eyes.

Kian felt almost naked under the old man's gaze. It felt as if the old man could read his past, present and any secret within him.

Kian glanced around nervously.

"Relax. Let's see what you get, boy!" The old man had an expectant gaze, anticipating birth of another amazing talent.

Silvy and Ben also looked expectant, their gazes encouraging.

At last, Kian went inside the portal, closing his eyes after remembering the severe warning from the old Seer.

The Awakening Portal buzzed with activation, and glowing symbols began to appear one after another.

The old Seer's eyes, and everyone's ears, were focused on the situation.

The old man announced loudly once again:

[ Name: Kian Nova ]

[ Faction: Virtue ]

[ Soul Force: 120 (Beyonder) ]

[ Talent:... ]
