To the Temple

The fight took no more the ten minutes, Nic wasn't injured at all, his current strength could compete with someone like mion, although he is strong all Gifts are not alike, it was just his luck that he fought a physical gifter who boost there strength, something he could counter with his birth strength and speed.

but he was intrigued.

*I wonder what my gift is, if I can boost my strength I should be able to compete with C-Rank physically gifts*

he was intrigued looking at the river below, talking to it as if it's his best friend.

*BEEP*

*PEOPLE OF ROSEVOLT, THIS IS YOUR KING CLIUS C. ROSE, AM ANNOUNCING ON BEHALF OF THE HIGH PRIEST THAT ALL YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN AT THE AGE OF 16 TO COME TO THE TEMPLE FOR THE ANNUAL GIFT CEREMONY, ALL THOSE THAT REFUSE SHALL BE PUNISHED, MAY THE GODS BLESS OUR LAND!!!*

*BEEP*

*hmm so am guessing your royalty* Nic smirk dropped looking at mion who was being dragged out the river.

*Yes we are you fool!!, now you shall perish for harming my brother mion c. rose 4th prince of rosevolt* the fat cheeked kid shout looking at Nic.

in every annual ceremony before it is announced, the royalty can choose to go first before it is announced to keep there strength a secret from neighboring kingdoms.

*shout up ashion!! dont shame my knights pride!!* mion shouted with rage in his eyes.

*I shall not be a man that lives off my families name, I shall live off of my pure strength and be a general that leads men to war standing at the front of the battlefield and not the back, for I am a KNIGHT!!*

*cough*

*cough* mion looked at Nic with a smile blood can be seen on the side of his lips*one day am going to beat you, you monster*

Nic smiled, out of all the nobles he meet this one was not so bad.

Nic turned away from the fatty going under the bridge, he grabbed a big bag that looks like a hiking bag, and change his damage pants into his best pants he could find, (due to his wing he find it hard to wear shirts, so he wears none) after he place two long wrapped swords into the bag and place it on his back.

*alright I think it's time to see what's my gift* Nic said as he starts climbing up the river bank heading towards the temple.

...

the temple is located in the middle of rosevolts kingdom only town, although rosevolt is a kingdom its size is only three hundred square miles its main town takes up most of the space of about two hundred square miles with it's high wall surrounding it, Nic live right outside of the gate about sixty meters away from it.

*to even make toads swim in the same waters as swines so disgusting* one of the guards said looking at Nic with disgust.

they didn't block him from entering because of the king's orders, else they would have beat him to death.

*Nic!!* a familiar voice shouts with joy writing all over her face.

Nic looked at her with a slight smile on his face, as he shakes his head slightly side to side signaling her not to come near, although Ivry is his closes friend, seeing her together with him can bring trouble to her after the ceremony.

as he kept walking more and more people his age were heading in the same direction, soon he could see the temple and a long line protruding out of it.

nervousness and joy can be felt in the crowd.
