Capítulo 108: XIX A Party For Two
Walking to the third unity, Elijah saw middle-aged lady secretary who eyes shined behind her glasses when she noticed him and she walked to his side.
"So you are the new temporary officer? I heard is rare to have someone gain the rank of officer. I received straight orders to take you to prepare yourself before you officer rank conferment." Without even having the chance to talk, Elijah was sitting in a room where several females carrying measuring instruments were taking off his clothes and measuring his body.
Elijah was taken aback at first, but as a noble he knew what they are doing. Of course, knowing it did not make him calmer even more when he saw the tailors who were measuring his waist walking away with deep red faces after finishing measuring him.
Then he was taken to a bath from when he left, he saw a armor that was an elegant chain mail that had been made with the alloy made from stellar silver, gold and Blue-grade Prime Crystal to forge the links which gave a blue luster around the armor.
Together with the chain mail, he saw a golden and blue robe. Across the back was an embroidered blue star. The symbol of Polaris City.
While he was dressing himself, he heard that there are three types of Officer in the City. Military Officer, Civilian Officer and Temporary Officer each divided into seven grades: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Purple. From what it did seemed, he was given the blue-grade immediately.
Hanging the sword that came with the armor at his waist. Elijah could tell how extraordinary this officer rank was only by the equipment he received. The sword had a gold sheath and a blue gem on the hilt.
When Elijah walked out, the middle-aged secretary eyes lit up upon seeing him. The others around stared at Elijah, thinking if Elijah was truly an outsider or some extraordinary talent of a large family clan.
"Wow! The Polaris robe suit you perfectly! I must say little brother, with your mature looks, I wonder how many maidens will be ruined by you." Zigan walked out the entrance and joked with him.
"Third Unity leader, what are you doing here?" The Middle-aged Woman asked with a severe gaze focused at him.
"What Third Unity leader, you should call me hubby or dear husband. As for why I'm here, it is to see my little brother Elijah. It was I who brought him from the monolith."If some of his old squadron saw him right now, they would be very surprised. For them, Zigan was the typical military officer, he would be always serious and inflexible, never telling jokes and the like. But this only depended the time and place.
Elijah shyly scratched his head as the image of Chloe emerging in his mind which made him wonder what she was doing now. At least he was not worried as he could feel something inside him telling she is safe. Then his thoughts changed to the image of shadow, after a few seconds he decided to call his master to have a chat with him and Cassie as he could feel his master was growing bored staring in the dark world alone.
"Let's go, We are going to the sky tower, where you will be grant of your temporary officer rank."
Within the highest floor of the Sky Tower, the building Elijah was before.
Dozens of important officials, nobles, powerful experts and some of their families were lined up in a orderly way.
"Everyone! Today, I have something important to announce." A powerful voice echoed from all sides. Some of the high echelon who had already received the news in advance were silent as they knew what was happening.
"Today, we will receive a new addition to our group of officers, this time it is a temporary officer."
Hearing this, they were all startled.
"Elijah Branches, you can enter." Shortly after the voice echoed, Elijah dressed in the Polaris robes above his chain mail and his sword hanged in his waist. Elijah entered elegantly as the main gate slowly opened. Walking nor fast or slow, Elijah turned to look at the crowd and just like in the old saying 'When you look into the abyss, the abyss also look into you.' He felt all the eyes turning to him.
What he did not know was that all of this was being transmitted on live to large screens spread across the city and they all knew his face now.
Many of the guys were giving looks of awe at the screen, but it not lasted much as those looks of awe quickly changed as they saw that most of the females were stagnant, looking at the figure in the screen blushing and with sparkles in their eyes as they smirked.
"From now you are part of us, at least for some time. Zigan go give the boy his badge."
Zigan was walking towards Elijah with a smile on his face, holding a blue badge that symbolized his status as a blue-grade officer.
"Good job, boy." Zigan murmured to him before handing over the badge.
After that a huge party started and with Elijah's presence. Many young ladies slowly approached him.
"Officer Elijah, are you single?"
"Officer Elijah, I heard you are a magi. Do you think you could teach me a few spells?" A female with short blue hair and three eyes said warmly.
"Officer Elijah, you are so amazing. Even seeming a bit older than us, you are already a blue-grade officer. What about we making a date?" Another lady with long brown hair asked him.
"I'm sorry miss, but as a new officer I don't have much free time but if one I want to have a date with such gentle and beautiful lady like you, you will be the first I will think of." Elijah said while showing a big smile, but on the inside he felt helpless.
Perhaps because he never had been in an actual relationship without counting Aina in that parallel life of his or that he could not tell those people who hate gods that his sweetheart was in reality a God. People started to think he was single and they all came to bother him, one after another. While watching Elijah in this situation, the parents of those females were more than happy to just sit and wait because even if he not accept them, they still have a chance to grew closer.
"Elijah" A elegant voice rang out behind him. Without anyone noticing, a divine beauty with a long jet black hair and grey eyes wearing a black, glittering dress appeared and sit beside him.

Even without knowing who this female was, the ladies were all ashamed while looking at her and them comparing with their looks.
If this lady was just beautiful, than they would be all trash. Quickly the females surrounding him no longer dared to approach him and walked away.
"Mas..." Looking at the woman siting next to him, a word was leaving his mouth as the woman's finger touched his lips, closing them.
"Shh, don't call me by this. While we are here you must call me by my name."
"What?" Elijah was startled by Shadow's request but he quickly nodded, giving her a glass of wine.
"Okay then, would you like to drink a glass of wine? Miss Yawen."
"Of course." She send him a flirting look before taking the glass from his hand. Shortly after, everyone could see the two of them chatting and laughing in the middle of the crowd without without caring about the others there.
