Ava did not waste time entering the wagon, she wanted to get done with this quickly and return to Trisha's side but she did not forget to act with reason, as her mistake may mean death of Trisha and James. to her Trisha and James's life matter than herself and others in the team.
Before Ava could knock on Sukehime's room door " come in " Sukehime invited her in. Ava did not heasitate or fear she gently opened the door and entered the room. than gave Sukehime a 90 degree Japanes bow and said " Her Majesty , Grand Empress Sukehime Sama. " Sukehime nodded and said " sit ". Ava politely nodded and sat on the wooden floor in seiza position.
" you seem to be more distrubed over the Injury of that girl..." Sukehime had yet to finish but was interrupted by Ava.
" Trisha O'Hara " said Ava with blank eyes, she was pissed that Sukehime did not know Trisha's name but for the sake of the scenario she hid all her dissatisfaction.
"um!" Sukehime was surprise that one of the westerner cubs dared to interrupt her, ' Ignorant calf does not fear the tiger' thought Sukehime.
" her name is Trisha O'Hara, the one who shield your highness from assassination. " explained Ava with a beautiful smile, which creep the hell out of any daring guy.
" Haha! Ava was it, you have gain my respect. " Sukehime was now curious of Ava, now a day it was very hard to met head strong talents who would go through any pain and hell for what they believe in. Sukehime then said " you seem to be more distrubed over the Injury of Trisha, clearly you care more about her than other two before you. Tell me about her I want to know what kind of a person knowningly scarifices their life for a stanger. "
Sukehime was not just saying this to Indulge Ava but she wanted to know if such fools really walked the earth even now in this day and time.
Hearing Sukehime ask about Trisha, Ava happily said " She is a fool with principles and will through many lenghts to follow these princples. " Ava could talk about Trisha for hours but now was not the time or the place and she felt this line was enough to perfectly describes Trisha.
" Oh ! I see. This the first I have ever seen a soul blessed by Light genuinely abmire some one. " Sukehime shook her head as Normally every person of light she meets is a hypocritical self righteous snobbish jerk who care about just themselves and see fellow human beings as low life. unlike Ava who clearly could bare any pain and punishment herself if it meant Trisha would recover faster, it really picked curiosity of Sukehime.
' Soul Blessed by light ' this not the term she has heard first time, she sometimes has heard her clan elders say these exact words when ever she goes to main clan to visit her grandpa. untill now she she never realised that they were refering to her. so, she asked Sukehime , " your highness, what is this Soul blessed by Light you speak off "
" Being a westerner you should of have heard of it right, after all light is workshiped as god over there. " Sukehime looked at Ava intently as church of light originated in west.
" not everone workships Light my our highness, but I have Indeed heard edlers in my family mention Soul blessed by light sometimes. but never acatually bothered know what it was untill today. " explained Ava.
Sukehime nodded in understanding and said " Soul blessed by light are the ones with inborn high Light elemental affinity, seems like your elders are hiding you from Church of light, because according to Church of light every soul blessed by light is their property. "
Suddenly a bomb went of in Ava's mind, she always wondered why her parents left the clan and joined O'Hara Mecenary group. Turns out they ever hiding form some cultist back at earth. In 2500+ city many cult's are born in every week and many other die every week. but there are some which are very tenacious, vicious and work in the shadows of the 2500+ cites they are very hard to get rid off.
During the early period of Apocalyptic period when the human kind was still struggling to understand World Torrer yet to discover all its rules, the whole of Human Kind came together to solve this mystery forgeting all there past grevince, racism, etc forming a united front of humankind, but their was this worm inside the united front of the Humankind, that was corroding the United front of the Humankind on its core principles, it was not corruption nor communism it was the superstitious and religious belief rooted in each person, no matter which color, country they belonged to they had their own superstitious and religious beliefs each contadictory to other. These superstitious and religious beliefs which were one's smothering under the mordernzation , with the presence of the World Terror they made a huge comeback surfacing all flaws in the united front of Human kind. Thanks to the scenario's related to gods, demons, churches etc more and more cults started to be born one after the other. the became the biggest headace all the 2500+ cites.
Sukehime looked at Ava and said " tell me about you abilites, skills and achivements. "
Ava explained her skill in details to Sukehime and listed all her skills and achivements. sukehime nodded and said " um... there is these practice and Technique which are very suitable for you considering that you are a soul blessed by light. but I do not know if it will do more good or more bad bad for you." Sukehime seemed to be in a bind then she turned you Ava and said " you decide "
" will it me stronger" asked Ava, not even bothering to know what it was.
" oh, do you not want to hear what it is first before you decide " asked Sukehime, Ava shook her head said " week does not get to choose and do not want to be week any more. "
" ho! okay then. The practice I choose for you is not my own it was one of the loot when I killed the 2nd genaration of Pope of Chuech of light who was planning to expand his influnce in Japan. this Practice is called Emissary of Light. but this Practice is somewhat special, after you master it there is no going back what so ever you can not switch to new practice as it completely alters your physiology acoording your soul and gifts you with a inborn unique Technique. so I have no idea what of what this technique is will be but the unique technique of the pope whom I killed was ' Angel of sight - if you see me , thsn I see you. ' it was a weired technique which allowed the pope to see every movement of the ones seeing him, that is if you can see him then he can see you and every movement you make. it may seem a rubbish skill to hear but he was one of the most trickest emenies I have ever faced in my entire career, I have seen many yokai's unusual and weired skills but none were as tricky as him.
what I am saying is that even though I do not know what Technique you will get after learning this practice, I can say it will definetly be the most suitable for you to use. " explained Sukehim, so that Ava can decide the best for herself.
Ava did think over it much and decided " Your Highness I choose to practice ' Emissary of Light ', since it is tailor made for me then why run from it, its like running from myself. "
Sukehime nodded and said " good choice girl, here take this it contains all the knowledge on light elemental and the practise Emmisary of light. even though I have not pracitised this technique if you have some thing you need help with do not hesistate to ask me I have a good knowledge of Light elemental. "passing a Jade slip similar to one that was given to Janet.
Ava recived the Jade slip and bowed in respect , Sukehime nodded and said " you can leave now and send in dumbest of all the boys of your friends. "
A soon as Ava recived the Jade slip a prompt appeared on her status screen
[ Ding!, You have recived a Prop ' Pope Emmarie's enlightment on Light elemental and Emissary of light ' related to a 10 star Occupation 'Emissary of Light' ]
[ Ding!, You have recived a Prop ' Pope Emmarie's enlightment on Light elemental and Emissary of light ' related to a possible 10-star sub Occupation ' Angle' ]
Reading the Prompts even the Ice cold Ava was happy, especially about the possibability of a 10 star sub occupation. as long as her strength increase and she is able to protect her loved ones and friends she did not care what price she paid for it.
10-star Talent was rarely heard of in the history of the 2500+ cites, 7 people were able to get 10 star occupation or sub occupation in the entire history of the human Kind and 2500+ cites and right now these Talents were at the peak of the Human Kinds strength. they are the ones who are holding the entire foundation of the human kind. if not for them 2500+ cites would have long become history, and human kind would be in utter choas. the demoracy which the human kind is very proud off would have crumbled long ago if not for the shadow of these 7 mighty big brothers.
Even though there are ways to increase the level of the Occupation and sub occupation stars. they take a lot of effort, talent and resources. If one is able to gain enlightnment in his or her Occupation then the star of the occupation automatically increases.
Ava nodded and slowly walked out of the wagon and went striaght to Justin and said " Sukehime- sama is waiting for you. "
" I was the first to be called in the boys definitely her highness thinks that my talent is better than the rest of you guys " arrogantly bragged Justin, looking at Leon and Luca. but then Ava who was heading towards Trisha stopped in her pace hearing Juntin's arrogant brags and said " Sukehime-same asked me to send in the dumdest of the boys. " and then continued in her tracks towards the cacoon.
Hearing Ava's words Justin staggered, Leon and Luca burst into laughter. Justin's face was red with embrassment but he did not dare to blame Ava or Sukehime. he just hurriedly entered the wagon.
[ she did not report her gains] cmplained Leon , Janet defended Ava [ it is not neccesary to share info on your gains, I did it just to tell you how important the opportunity is and not to mess it up.]
As Ava returned to the cacoon, James asked her through the channel he had created for himself and Ava earlier [ you returned early, how are your gains? ]
[ I got a prop related to a 9 star Occupation and a possible 10 star Sub - Occupation. ] said Ava non-chalantly.
James gasped, even though James often claimed that being a Transverser nothing really surprised him, he was really surprised right now another 9 star Occupation and a possible 10 star sub occupation, since when did 9 star and 10 star Occupations stared to appeare like cabbages and Onions in supermarket, is possble that World terror is holding a end of season sale.
Seeing James's exaggerated expression Ava for some reason felt proud and said " do not worry I sure you will also get something Deserving. "
" Anyway I did not know that a sub occupation can have higher stat then the occupation. " said James thing for a second.
" its very possible, consider a carpenter, it has vast range of expertise, some are good at making chair , some are good at making miniature doll houses than the over all carpentary . so when it comes to carpentary they are avarage but in their own area of speaciality they are masters. now consider Carpentary as occupation and miniature doll house making Sub occupation. now you tell me if Sub occupation can have more stars then Occupation itself. "
James nodded in understanding and also saw Ava in light, who knew that the yandere unreasonable Ava had a intellectual side to her.
