*Boom!*
A sudden wave of magic blasted from his body, hitting them back.
This magic white as snow danced in the air a bit, and then it rushed into the crystal as if on command.
First came the yellow glow, and then before their eyes, it changed, turning green, and then it changed again to blue.
It stayed at blue for a while, and as they all watched, the blue slowly became darker and darker, changing into a glowing red.
This surprised everyone watching.
This meant that Lenny had the potential to become a great-level demon.
Agnes creased her brows in anger, and Riff turned his head to Lenny for the first time, having him in his sight.
However, just when they thought it was over, more was yet to come.
The crystal suddenly glowed a different color. This time around, Agnes could no longer hold back.
Her anger had morphed into pure bafflement.
She stood from her seat as she was tempted to leap over.
"Impossible!!!" She muttered to herself.
Surprisingly, even Lady Vinegar said the same thing.
This was an agreement that both Vine and Gar had reached together.
Even Zod, an elder of the pack, could not help but feel his knees go weak, and he fell on them.
His eyes were looking at the crystal with so much attention that the color with which it shone reflected off his pupils.
The guards were at a loss for words.
They paused and looked at Lenny. They were only guards, not aware of the significance of this new color ahead of blue.
But other, more knowledgeable people, like Agnes and Vinegar, knew what it meant.
After all, this color should not exist in this world, at least not yet.
According to the cosmic rules, this color, purple, should not exist in this world.
Nobody in this world had touched upon the extremities of the profound mysteries that this color represented.
Zod tried to talk,but he found that the words were stuck in his throat.
"Gre... Gre... Greater De... Greater Demon!" He pointed his finger at Lenny, "Potential Greater Demon Realm!"
"Huh!?" Everyone gasped at the revelation of what he had just said.
These people were not as knowledgeable as people such as Agnes and Lady Vinegar, who had a good education.
And that was the reason why they did not know what purple color meant.
But no one here was foolish enough to not know what 'Greater Demon Realm' meant.
This meant that Lenny had the potential to surpass even the Primordial Beast.
This made everybody look at this slim young man with white hair, dancing in the wind, like they were in the presence of a potential god.
There were even some that would have knelt in the ground if given the opportunity.
Although the crystal only measured the potential, this was incredible news.
Just then, there was a sudden crack in the crystal.
Till this moment, Lenny had not yet opened his eyes.
His hand still remained on the crystal as he focused as much energy as the rune could give out of his body.
Lenny was unaware of the commotion he was causing.
The crystal suddenly cracked, and that crack, like a spider web, grew across the crystal until it abruptly blew up.
It was only at the Bang did Lenny open his eyes to look.
He could see that the crystal was no longer there.
As far as he was concerned, it did not work.
He looked to his left and then to his right.
He could see the surprised look on the faces of everybody.
Without a doubt, he was sure that it did not work.
He could not help but sigh as he waited, in anticipation of his death.
However, it did not come.
He examined his body like a surveyor.
He could still see the chains around his body, but that was it.
There were still red chains around his body.
But that was it.
The chains did not burst him into meat chunks like he thought they would.
However, when he turned to look at Victor, he could see Victor staring at him in surprise.
Just then, there was a loud YELP from the sitting area, and he watched as Lady Vinegar jumped down into the arena as she rushed for him in a hug.
Even before she reached him, Lenny could tell that this was not Vine but Gar.
Gar had taken over the body.
She jumped on his body.
"You look so hot right now," she grabbed him to kiss him. "Oh, fuck it! I'm so turned on right now, let's FUCk!"
*Cough!*
"Excise me!" A loud voice was heard, and everyone, including Gar, turned to Elder, who had just arrived.
It was none other than Elder Isaiah, the chief of all the elders.
"Pardon me, please, but would you mind coming with me, Mr. Lenny?"
....
With Lenny and Victor being the last to check in for the selection, this segment of the Alpha Selection Tournament has ended.
Elder Zod, after getting himself together, announced to all the participants and their fighters that the main tournament would begin in exactly one week from now.
After which, everybody was dismissed.
Everyone except Lenny, who had been invited by Elder Isaiah, was dismissed.
Gar did not want to let him go, claiming that she wanted to give him VICTORY sex, but Vine, after tugging for a while, succeeded in ceasing control of the body.
While Lenny followed behind the Elder, Morgana took one more look at him before turning and leading the little girl away.
Lenny followed Elder Isaiah through a few turns and up a flight of stairs that led up to a particular room.
Lenny found out that the Elder had been watching from this point.
Lenny was led into the room.
The moment the door was closed, the elder turned to him.
"We need you, Lenny Tales, but you are not strong enough for what is coming, and what is coming is DEATH!"
Lenny raised a brow at him in question.
However, he suddenly heard footsteps from a corner of the room. "What he means to say is that you need a teacher."
Lenny turned to the sound of the voice. He could not believe who he was seeing...
