Bab 13: CHAPTER 13: MIRACULOUS
"I think… I think that I can cultivate!" she exclaimed as tears streamed down her cheeks.
The four guys looked at the lady with shock in their eyes, they all understood at this point that the food was special. For cultivators like them, the food was rich in spiritual energy and it could boost their cultivation.
But to think that it can make a waste have talent all of sudden felt very unreal.
The oldest didn't want to clash the chubby's longtime dream by second-guessing, so he took out a talent stone he kept by his side. It was used to check if a person has got talent before they start cultivating.
It was only after cultivating that a person will know which spirit root they have. Seeing the talented stone coming out, the chubby lady, Lucy clenched her fists in worry, she shouldn't have been hast.
She should have waited for a while before guessing, if it is shown that she didn't get a talent after causing such a scene, she was going to be fully stressed and depressed.
It took her a very long time to accept that she was a waste and now with some little hope, she sincerely prayed that the results will be positive.
Lucy's maids were the ones who were worried the most. They have seen their lady suffering so much because she was a waste and if something were to happen today and it wasn't positive, their Madam was going to beat them first and sell them after that.
Lucy was everyone's treasure at home and making her cry was a crime punishable by death itself.
The maids weren't the only ones, even the four companions were sweating, they all wanted some good news and no bad news.
"Do you want me to check?" the oldest asked.
Lucy wanted to know also, whether the news is good or bad, she was very desperate, "yes, I need to know."
The oldest sighed as he approached Lucy, his talent was revealed when he was barely seven years old, and he still remembered the happiness he felt as well as his parents.
It was everyone's dream to be a cultivator but it was unfortunate that not everyone was lucky. He also hoped that Lucy will get lucky this time, maybe she will be genuinely happy from now on.
With gritted teeth, he took her small hand and placed it on top of the black stone. If someone has a talent and was suitable to become a cultivator in the future, the black stone was supposed to light up.
As long as it does, then it means that the person can be invested but if it doesn't show any response, it meant that the person wasn't so lucky. It was very degrading to call someone a waste, it wasn't everyone that was destined to become cultivators.
Some kings and queens were only mortal and yet they were very powerful, the same applies to some merchants as well as other individuals. There were so many outstanding mortal beings out there and so many disgusting cultivators out there.
Lucy closed her eyes as she was afraid of being let down but who knew that all of a sudden people were screaming and yelling excitedly. Lucy the curious one opened her eyes to find out why people were reacting like this and what she saw made her fall to the ground and cry like a baby.
Everyone was shocked and happy at the same time. Seeing that black stone lighting up like that, something that has never happened to Lucy who had tested her talent several times and drowned in depression after that every time, who couldn't be touched.
The two maids rushed to pick up their young miss with tears of joy running down their cheeks, "Young Miss, you did it this time!"
She couldn't believe it, it felt so unreal and like a dream, "Is that real?"
The other girl in the group, a good and close friend of Lucy cried happily as she looked at Lucy who finally got her dream come true.
Anna walked up to Lucy and hugged the other tightly, "yes, it is true. From now on, no one is allowed to call you a waste. Show them what you can do and prove them wrong."
Hearing Anna saying this, it finally sank in that she was no longer waste and she could cultivate. With the girls playing like this, the whole gang understood that their vacation was going to be cut short.
They had to return back home and get Lucy fully tested, as the shop wasn't going anywhere, they will still come back.
Without Alayna knowing, the group of friends left the town in a hurry and she didn't have a single idea that trouble and blessings were coming her way.
James didn't know the reason why the people he brought left but they left him a huge reward. The most money that he made by selling his game was at least 20 silver coins and the money was spent on his wife and taking care of the house.
But to think that not only did he get 20 silver coins for telling the masters about the shop, but he also received 50 silver coins more and some spirit stones when the gang left.
He was so happy that he could see his bright future ahead. As long as he cultivates seriously and eats and drinks well, his injuries will be fully healed. He can return to hunting for a short time while thinking of doing something different.
Maybe he should try to ask Alayna if she wanted someone to guard the place for her. He didn't care much about the salary, as long as he can rub and gain some of the shop lady's blessing then he will be okay.
The next day, James went to see Alayna and bought some food. However, something very weird happened that made Alayna look at James with a puzzled look.
"You want me to keep your money for you?" was this person crazy?
"Yes, I don't want to miss a meal here. I don't trust myself to keep the money, I may end up using it for something else!" James shyly spoke.
Alayna found him very cute and since he was a customer, she decided to help him. Maybe she should start thinking about making those membership cards, they will be useful in moments like this.
"Fine, I will help you."
