Chapter 2 Chapter: 002 Patron God

On copper's town stage, on the middle of the crowd, nine children were waiting when a youth dressed in white robes, a bald head. and a few other people enter the stage.

"My name is Richard, and I will be the priest in this ceremony, so children stay in line and I will call one by one." then Richard talked to a middle-aged man on his side and called.

"Adrian Fordge" "Yes,sir." said the boy on the front before he walked to Richard.

Richard stood in front of Adrian with a cold face and asked. "Adrian, you know that only a few people can receive a bless and serve a God, so are you ready?" "Teacher, i'm ready."

Then the five priests on Richard's side chanted a spell and a strange aura apeared in the room.

Adrian closed his eyes and felted warmth on his body when a crow descended and stayed above his head with a proud look. "Welcome Adrian Fordge chosen by the Crow God, now follow lord Drake to see your parents" said Richard before he pointed to the middle aged man on his side.

Words of shock and envy were emitted from the surrounding and fell into the young boy who was standing on the stage. And under the gaze of everyone, the young boy's breath became a little hurried and he followed one of the priests outside the stage.

"Next, Alyssa Rook!" Amidst the noisy crowd, Richard's voice once again sounded.

As this name was called, the crowd suddenly became quiet. All of their gazes turned and a young girl wearing a light blue dress. She was quiet standing and the icy expression on her face didn't change at all with the gazes of everyone.

"look it's Alyssa, she's the daughter of the city lord, who do you tink is her God?" " I don't know she' so young and aready mastered her family's Swift Wind Sword Technique at five, so probably is a Sword God or a War God right?" Voices sounded from the crowd when the priests chanted the same spell from before, but this time nothing happened.

"What? Miss Alyssa was not chosen?" "Is this a error?" asked the people in the crowd who was confused to why this genius was not blessed by any god.

"Silence!" ordered Lord Michael and after they stoped talking he said "Alyssa, I'm sorry but is better if you go back home and after this, uncle will find the truth for you okay?" "I understand uncle, i'm going back now." when she turned to leave the stage, Michael ordered Richard "Richard, go with Alyssa. I will take care of the ceremony now." "Yes, Master" said Richard before he run after Alyssa.

After Alyssa only one more was blessed, Chloe Branches, Elijah's cousin who was chosen by Goddess of healing Eir and the first genius in the clan after Ophelia, Chloe's elder brother Noah, that reached the Divine Mage Second Realm's Earth peak before thirty.

"Now is the last, Elijah it's your turn." a little boy who look nervous as he reached the stage and looked arround. On the right, he saw four elders from the clan. These elders didn't hold as much power as the great elders but nevertheless, they had quite a bit of say and weren't pushovers. Besides these elders were young men that had shown promise and talent. "Uncle Michael." said the boy. Michael was a Legendary Divine Alchemist and his father childhood friend. He was a orphan who served his father before a elder saw his talent and send him to a heaven's way academy to train and after he come back, he Married the city lord's sister who he loved as a child.

"Elijah, i'm going to chant the spell, be prepared." And when he began a cold and diabolic air surged and the expressions of everyone on the stage changed dramatically.
