Chapitre 7: Continued
Ade was very nervous. He walked forward one step at a time. The light was not bright inside the room. As he moved forward to the end of the corridor, he saw the man in red in the room.
When he saw the elder, Ade let out a sigh of relief.
"Ade come to my side." The elder smiled and waved at Ade. Ade walked forward quickly and stood behind the elder with his head bowed. He did not speak.
"Tell me your second request." After a moment, Se an opened his eyes and a brilliant light manifested for a moment in hid eyes. He stared at the elder, Lore and continued to speak slowly. "I want a drop of the Azure nectar!" The elder also stared at Se an and spoke in the same manner. Se an immediately frowned. Azure nectar was extremely valuable in cultivation. Besides the members of his tribe who had extraordinary talent and proved to be exceptional, he seldom granted the nectar.
Se an looked past Lore at Ade silently. Although Ade lowered his head, he could still feel the man in red's gaze on him.
"Is it for him? This child is ordinary, He will find it hard trying to absorb one drop of my nectar into his veins. It'll just be a waste. Change your request." Se an averted his gaze and spoke calmly.
"These are my two requests, I will not change them. If you agree to it, I will teach you the Ancient art - the true awakening!"
Lore handed the cup to Ade and motioned for him to drink from it. Once Ade took the cup, he did not hesitate and drank the whole thing in one mouthful. A comfortable wave of heat immediately spread through out his body.
Se an frowned. He sank into his thoughts for a moment before he looked at Ade. All of a sudden he spoke.
"Alright I'll agree to your requests. But for the nectar drop. You should know that there are stages to the test. I will give a drop each to the top three contestants in each stage. To avoid wastage, I will add a condition, if this child can get into the top 30 In any one of the stages in this test, I will give him a drop!"
"If he doesn't, You must change your request !" The elder thought about his words and believed that the man before him was making things difficult. After a moment of thought, he nodded. In his head, he was already thinking about how he could benefit Ade similarly if he had to change his request.
Ade listened to the exchange and looked at the white hair on the elders head as well as the wrinkles on his face. He thought of the ridicule delivered by the old man from Indu tribe and Chuck's indifferent attitude towards him. He even thought about the loneliness that he grew up with and how he would sit alone looking at the night sky. He would imagine the things written in the beast skin scroll as he gazed into the sky. All these things enveloped Ade's thoughts. They transformed into a strength and resolution he never had before!
The elder stood up and motioned for Ade to follow him. Just as he was about to leave, Se an stared at Lore. After a moment of hesitation, he spoke abruptly.
"Lore, I have a question that has been plaguing my mind for dozen of years. I must ask you..... Since you're in Sunflower now, I hope you will answer my question! The elder did not stop. He continued walking as Ade followed him. Se an's voice traveled towards them from behind. "You're only at the ninth level of the origin realm but from the past and even now, why is it that I can feel a faint hint of Awakening on you?! The man in red spoke quickly but he did not reveal all his thoughts. He could not tell Lore that the aura within him made him feel slightly alarmed. He had that feeling of terror back then, and he still got the same feeling at that point in time!
When Ade heard those words, he felt his heart quiver. He could somewhat tell that the relationship between his elder and Sunflower's elder was not as it seems. There was a high possibility that there was some dispute that happened between them in the past. It probably had something to do with the elders constant refusal to travel to Sunflower. At the same time, the Elder of sunflower must have also been worried because he was still polite towards the elder even though he was only at the origin realm. Ade recalled the sight of the elder and the man in red walking in midair while they were still on the Griffin. His heart raced against his chest.
"You will learn about it later ". The elder did not provide any answer. He delivered his words leisurely and brought Ade out of the pentagonal altar. Within the altar, Se an fell silent. As he gazed at the direction Lore left, his face became troubled. It was already dusk outside. Night was about to arrive in the stone city but there were still many people wandering about and the city was bustling with activity. There were fires in various parts of the city. They were found in appliances Ade had never seen before and they floated in midair, lighting up the entire city. The elder walked forward as Ade followed him. The two of them were quiet as they walked.
"The test held by Sunflower will begin in six days. The test is organized by Sunflower and all the small tribes who come here to pay homage have to send representatives to enter the test. It is a grand ceremony held for you young one. "
"I want you to enter the test with a concealed identity. I have already made arrangements.
"Ade, I can only help you so much. Everything else is up to you". The elder said kindly. He swung his right hand and immediately, a straw hat appeared in the elders hand.
"I got this from an old friend a long time ago. If you can absorb it into your blood, it can change your figure and appearance slightly, its not much but you'll look different.
The elder slapped the straw hat on Ade and immediately he felt his body lurch. A cold sensation seeped into his body and the straw hat disappeared instantly.
