Chapter 2

"Scorpio, before we start this meeting, I would like to discuss a big problem something with you."

"What is it your highness?"

"There's a Student at Le kradia who was born on November 5."

"Ohh, my follower. So? what's wrong with this child that his highness has mentioned of?"

"No, this child is not your follower."

"wait what? your highness can you explain it to me? How can a child that is born on november 5 be not my follower?"

"He doesn't have your powers, or should I say, He has no powers."

"WHAT!?"

All of the Zodiacs were surprised by what they heard. Khel showed the 12 Caliel's info.

"Y. . .your highness, are you sure about this? there's no way he is a powerless human."

"I'm sure of this scorpio, that's why I want you to grant this child with your powers. Everyone on earth should be able to stand side by side with each other."

"b. . .but your highness, if I give him my power personally, it would be much more powerful than the other human's power."

"Then think of it as a compensation for the last 12 years that he has suffered through."

"Understood, I will do as you command."

Scorpio held out his hand to the soul of Caliel to grant him the powers of the god of thunder. But.

"Y. . .You're Highness, M. . .My powers."

"What's wrong scorpio?"

"This child's soul blocks my power. No, rather than blocking my power, it looks as if my power is not compatible with his soul."

"WHAT!??, Scorpio what the hell are you saying!? how can a child born in the early november not be compatible with your powers!?"

"I'm saying the truth your highness, my power keeps on getting rejected by this child."

"No, wait scorpio. This is much more better."

"What do you mean your highness?"

"This child is going to be perfect for our grand plan."

"Y. . .Your highness, do you mean?"

"Yes, this child is going to be my vessel"

"But your highness, you know that we have to find someone who was exposed in Zodiac magics for a long time to serve as your vessel, if you pass on your soul into this boy who has not experienced using magic, his body will surely break. Please think it over your highness."

"Don't worry, the first time I laid my eyes on this child, I somehome felt a connection between us. That's why this child will be able to handle this king's powers."

The 12 zodiacs was convinced by khel's words, and started settling down. Although khel is still not sure if the child's body can really handle his soul, his trust is still as high as the tower.

"Now then, let's start the real purpose of this meeting, shall we?"

. . . .

"Caliel, how's your training going?"

"Nothing new, it looks like I'm at my limit, I'm not improving anything these past few days."

"Then let me help you, I'll be your sparring partner just for today."

"stop joking serie, you know that I don't stand a chance against the student in the 4th place of star rankings."

Serie stopped for a moment and starts thinking of a way to help caliel.

"Then, I'll just use star enhancement tier 10 since you won't be able to handle it if I use my 5th tier star enhancement. That way we can spar."

"Ok then, but you should still hold back since a 10th tier star enhancement gives a huge boost to the user."

"Don't worry, with your training, I'm sure you would be able to take me down. With a bunch of scratches of course hahaha."

Serie and Caliel started training at the gym, Caliel was able to outsmart serie several times, but due to serie's star enhancement, she only suffered little injuries even if caliel used all his knowledge and power in fighting. In the end, Caliel lost and was only able to knock down serie once. After their sparring they noticed some students watching them, some were surprised by what caliel can do and some were just watching with hateful eyes.

"Hahaha I won. But still, for you to knock down the 4th place in star rankings with a 10th tier star enhancement, you really are one hell of a powerhouse hahaha."

"Thanks, I was able to improve past my limits thanks to you."

"Don't mention it, that's what are friends for right?"

". . . . ."

"By the way, the final exams is just 2 weeks away, that's why you need to work hard and surpass your limits everyday."

"I'll get going then, see you later Caliel."

'𝘐𝘧 𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘢𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘦𝘹𝘢𝘮, 𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳. 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘺 𝘐 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳'

Just when Caliel was about to go to his class the guys who beat him up the other day on the gym approached him.

"Hey Caliel, those were some fine moves you got there. We didn't think that you would be able to knock our 4th place in star rankings."

"Come on Kai, Serie just used a 10th tier star enhancement, of course Caliel will be able to knock her down at least once."

"you're right, after all a cripple will always be a cripple hahahaha."

"Hey Caliel."

"What?"

"This final exam, I hope you're still alive until then. Because I will be the one to destroy you, you understand!?"

". . . ."

"tskk, let's go."

Kai and his friends left Caliel in the gym. However a black figure of a woman was eavesdropping on their conversation. She took out her phone and called someone.

"Headmaster, the plan was a success. Now, caliel will face his death in this upcoming exam."

"Goodwork my student, you may now rest, I'll take care of the rest."

"understood."

The black figure of a girl secretly walked away while smiling.

. . . .

"Faros, when you set out to the outside of the tower did you really kill Queen eria's daughter?"

"Of course, her son got away but since he is a cripple, he might be dead already after a few weeks since he ran away."

"Make sure that what you're saying is true, our organization doesn't want to deal with loose ends afterwards. If words of that crime has gotten to the ears of a zodiac, we're as good as dead."

"Don't worry Maria, even if something goes wrong I'll deal with it perfectly. Just watch in that throne of yours and enjoy the show."

. . . .

"Serie, where are we going?"

"I'm gonna go shopping for clothes, that's you need to accompany me."

"Why do I have to?"

"Look at you, have you already forgotten that I helped you on your training today? this is the least that you can do for me so just bear with it."

"This is why I don't want to get help from you."

"Hehe, don't worry this is going to be finished in less than an hour."

*5 Hours later*

"Woww, this dress is so beautiful, hey caliel! do you think I would look good in this?"

". . . ."

"Hey serie, is your sense of time broken?"

"What do you mean?"

"You said earlier that it'll only take less than an hour, but it's been more than 5 hours now."

"what kind of nonsense are talking about? we still have 15 minutes lef. . . ."

Serie stopped halfway on what she was saying when she looked at her watch.

"Caliel, why didn't you tell me earlier!?"

"You looked like you've been having so much fun, I thought it would be rude to interupt you."

". . . ."

"Don't worry, we're still on time for the last train so just wrap it up and let's go home."

"Ok then, I'll just finish buying this dress and then we'll go back."

. . . .

"There, finished! let's go!!"
