Chapter 3 - Chapter-3 : Talent Revealed

Following the guide, Ikki reaches the big door , where two burly men with black suits were guarding the door , after checking with the guide, the black suited men opened the door, the moment Ikki steps inside the room, the door slam shuts again.

A beautiful blond lady wearing Blue suit and high heels, comes to greet Ikki with a professional smile

" Hello Young Sir, Pls come this way, "and guides him to the candidates only seating area , asks him to sit and wait for few minutes and will call him when it is his turn.

Ikki nods to say he understood and looks at the sitting area, there were all kids his age full of nervous and excitement , thinking what their talent would be, sitting in twos and threes they were talking in hushed voices, ikki was not interested in talking with these brats so he finds a seat in the corner and sits with his head held down showing no interest in communication, just minding his own business.

Suddenly he felt some one sat next to him, rising his head to the side, it was a boy with a buzz cut and was actually quite big for his age, he looks more like a 15 year old than than a six year old.

After taking a good look at him Ikki closes his eyes and sighs in his heart "I thought I had worked hard enough and was considering myself bit on the bigger side compared to my peers , but now the buzz cut boy's fist is actually half the size of my head, it's hard to imagine how much he will grow in the future"

While ikki was sighing and thinking of worldly matters, The buzz cut boy beside him remained silent and mainted a stoic expression, that looked like a little adult ,but due to his young age and still remaining baby fat in his face he looked more cuter than serious.

Few minutes later..,

The same blond beauty with blue suit came to escort Ikki with a same professional smile on her face to the awakening room

" Young Sir, pls come this way, keep calm and do what you are told to do, and the awakening will be over in a jiffy,

And all the best"

Ikki said thanks in a shy manner, while inwardly thinking " She is actually quite polite for even to a kid like me, all are the kids treated the same way or am I special?

I guess it's the latter, my young handsome face is already making magic, when I grow I don't know how many young ladies heart will be charmed"

With the flick of his head, adjusting his hairstyle ikki goes forward to the room lamenting his charm.

The blond haired girl was bit amused of his actions, since she is a beauty herself,she can guess what the little rascal is thinking, If not for the cameras and to get a good conduct certificate for this internship, she would have kicked this runt at the backside.

She used to do those same things whenever her female friends praised her for her glowing skin , now seeing someone doing the same thing to her and a little runt at that, she felt the urge to kick him, Thinking she is in the internship , she controls her anger and then walks of to do her work

Haa.. the good old days have gone , ever since I came to college and reached my senior year, my whole life has all been about internships, and projects. After I finish this internship I will go take a break and relax a little and play with toru.

Thinking of toru, he should be about the same age as this little runt, she will go home and teach him a good lesson and make sure he doesn't learn these bad things .

The toru inside his house playing games suddenly sneezed, and the character got shot down because of it by the villain.

"Nooo ,I shoud restart again, and who wad that thinking about me, it must be that devil woman, she said she is going to be coming early today. I have to quickly finish this level 99 quickly other wise she won't let me play when she comes "

Scene turns

Here, ikki who just entered the new room the nth time , was once again taken aback,

All the high tech machines and men and woman wearing white labcoats going here and there with notes in hand, and kids his doing various tests., and at the center of the room huge glass magic ball like thing was placed and few kids can seen lining up to touch it, making the big galss ball flash colors again and again

Ikki inwardly exclaims

" Whoaa.. The magic ball should be the awakening object , just like in full time mage novel, will I also get dual talents awakened just like the mc, I am so much looking forward to it "

A man in lab coat calls out to Ikki

" Kid give me your documents , let's do a final check and answer all the questions, you are asked for Okay? "

Ikki snaps out if his thoughts and says

"Yes" And gives the documents which has already been sealed and and ticked and punched and now it is being scanned , to confirm with details with the state household database and after green light emits from the computer scanner the white lab coat man starts to introduce with the awakening process to Ikki.

"Okay, now that all is right with the documents , we will go towards main event.,

The kids right there in front of the glass ball standing in line are checking their talent power ranking, the big glass ball is called power assessor or just a power ball. It is used to check the power levels of the awakened talent of an Individual, as for the power levels there are F , E, D, C, B, A, S from low to high F is lowest and S is the highest.

A person can have more than one talent but they are very rare, even rarer than S class talent individuals .

Talent awakening can be dangerous,

Some Kids due to over excitement , sadness or deep emotional moment their talent tends to get out of control which may bring unintended harm to the surroundings, so the awakening is done in a closed and a combat ready room"

While talking the lab coat man leads Ikki to the closed room where there are no windows and the only door is guarded by more than a dozen men in combat gear , looking left and right, most of the space is empty, except in the center where there is magic circle like something drawn on the ground with several adult fist sized magic balls connected to the ends like supplying some sort of power or something to the magic circle.

While Ikki was secretly thinking of the use of those magic orbs like things , The lab coat man already reached at the other end of the room where a small enclosed cabin full of metal is seen and he opens it and wnters inside, closes from the inside says Ready to mic where the voice gets transmitted to Ikki in the room through speakers outside.

The bright lights are switched Off and the cool and soft lab lights are turned On .

Ikki in the middle of the room was getting tensed, thinking inwardly "they are treating me like some alien,is talent awakening really as dangerous as the white coat man said?

I pray all the gods, to give me good talent and smooth awakening "

While Ikki was praying a soft music is heard from the Speakers, after hearing the music, Ikki gradually relaxed his body , closed his eyes as if mesmerized by the music, just then white light emits from the magic orbs at the corner of the magic circle, it lits up one by one and when all the light lits up, a brilliant light escapes from the ground along magic circle fully encasing Ikki in it and continuing to rush straight to the the sky, but since it was an enclosed room, it was blocked by the special material coating done on the walls .

The Combat guards all had tensed muscles and were ready to move at any time if things go wrong.

After intense bright awakening light flashed for over a 2-3 minutes, it finally starts to fade away and Ikki slowly opens his eyes.

Ikki felt completely refreshed from inside out, as if his entire body was washed insdie out with some super serum , his whole body felt light weight and he even felt extremely strong, he felt he could beat 10 of his previous sleves with eyes closed.

Wait eyes closed? Is my talent related to perception like my mother?

Just when Ikki was thinking, the white lab coat man come with a extra set of papers.,comes to Ikki 's side and says

" Looks like you have figured out your talent, Yes according to data received from the main computer it is super perception, quite a useful talent I must say., come let's go check your power levels, that is what truly decides your upper limit, talent is just the starting point "
