The match has already commenced between Malcer and Kevin. They exchanged attacks but everyone could see Kevin has the upper hand and if something out of the ordinary didn't happen then Kevin is going to win.
Alder and Rodney sighed watching the exchange.
"I think both of us is going to lose the bet" Rodney said.
"Malcer is going to lose and you will lose the bet not me" Alder said and continued "But still who know that the kid you picked up would be so talented and become this strong without any bloodline"
Rodney heard it and sighed and said "I only saved him out of whim since we were only investigating the sudden disappearance of a village from edge of your territory"
"He had no place to go and no one to look after him so I took him in to train as a servant for the clan but somehow he started to cultivate and his talent was shown early"
"I investigated who gave him a cultivation method and found that nobody gave him any cultivation method as he could rarely talk to anyone and when I asked him where he got it, only answer I got was that it was passed down to him by his parents which surprised me since every person who used to live in his village was used to be a mortal and there was nobody was a cultivator and I couldn't investigate as he was the only survivors of the village"
"Did he tell you what happened to the village?" Alder asked.
"He said he didn't know and he just woke up to the big hole where he was found" Rodney said.
As they were talking, Lloyd watched the battle before him with a frown as he couldn't find the cultivation of Kevin through system which happen for the first time. He knows from the energy and its quality that Kevin was nearing earth stage but not there.
'system why cant I see Kevin's cultivation' Lloyd called out to the system
-Something is protecting the existence of the being you called as Kevin-
-Current level of system cant overcome it-
'you are saying that there is someone who is capable to hide from you' Lloyd asked in supprise.
-yes-
-searching for the database for explanation-
-searching-
-searching-
-searching-
-only result found-
-analyzing data-
-beep-
-New mission created-
...…
Mission-KILL KEVIN
.....
As Lloyd looked at the mission he found it weird the as it was the only mission he got without a reward and it was a killing mission. Normally he could always get experience points or any items or system function as reward but this time he has none.
'System where is the reward for the mission'
-system wont be issuing any reward for this mission as the reward can be taken from Kevin after you killed him-
'Is it that great that you are not giving out any reward'
-Only person who can hide someone from the system is the heavens-
-The one person who the heavens will support and protect is the chosen one or heaven's child-
Hearing this a shiver ran through his body while thinking 'This better be not what I am thinking'
'System, explain who is this chosen one'
-The Heavens will choose someone every eons to carry out the will of the heaven. The heavens will be grant that person with a heaven defying talent and cultivation method. The person will be hard or nearly impossible to kill as heaven could help that person to escape unreasonable situation with unreasonable way or that person could able make a breakthrough in his strength in unreasonable times to escape from any dangers. The only downfall of being the chosen one is that he/she may think that he there in the control of their destiny and are defying the heavens but he/she is only act according to the predetermined ways sets the heaven. That person is both lucky and unlucky at the same time as nobody could go against them but puppets to someone's will-
Lloyd was surprised hearing this and sighed and thought 'And here I thought I am the protagonist'
'But why is there a mission to kill the chosen one' Lloyd asked in confusion.
-Because of the system, someday host may come face to face with the chosen one and every chosen one have an unique ability and an unique treasure to ensure the survival and progression of the chosen one. While you may not get the ability, system can help host to get the treasure but only if you killed him yourself-
'Is the treasure the reward for the mission'
-Yes Host-
'So I must now kill the protagonist' Lloyd thought but little excited about the task in front of him
