The following day after the incident Alex went to the Adviser to finally commence his Ritual to finally get his title. "Mr. Alex are you ready for your ritual?" Said Dr. James. "Yes, Doc. I'm ready." Said Alex as he stands in the middle of the room. The ritual is usually different for each title user but this is the general ritual that everyone first experience if it succeeds on calling the title then its done if not usually the title candidate just waits for the day that it comes since the ritual is already finished and just waiting for the judgement of the title itself.

"Mr. Alex do you know some titles are alive? And has worth in the history books?" Said the Doctor. "Yes, I think those title's are what they call Legends?" Said Alex. "Correct Mr. Alex. Legends indeed." Said the Doctor in response. "Why are you telling me this Doc?" Said Alex . "Well why not have a bit of trivia while we prepare the ritual." Said the Doctor as he writes a magic circle under him.

"Should I be standing for this or should I lay down?" Said Alex. "Well no, but as long as you're here right now can you adjust yourself to the left, there." Said the Doctor as he chants the ritual's words the circle begins to light up and Alex stumbles to his knees and begins the title ritual.

"Just hold on there Mr. Alex. We'll be done in jiffy." Said the Doctor as he chants louder and louder. Alex hears the voices again 'C'mon kid you can hold on right?', 'You're not ready yet kid', 'You're not violent enough', 'I'll answer your call but you'll not get the title yet, with time you will earn it but right now you're not ready' Alex wakes up from that and the Doctor finishes up the ritual.

"Mr. Alex how are you feeling is the title been embedded to you?" Said the Doctor. "No, I don't think I have but I heard their voices saying that I'll get it soon." Said Alex. "I see so the ritual is successful. Can I ask the title name if you've heard it from the voices?" Said the Doctor. "I don't know. I really don't know." Said Alex. "I see I guess overtime as you get to know more of your weapon you'll probably learn more about your title." Said the Doctor.

"I'll head back for now. Thanks Doc." Said Alex as he leaves the office. "Hey you're that new title holder right? Seems like you haven't fully successfully got yours but can I get your opinion about the ritual? Sorry for asking this many questions." Said the girl. "Hey aren't you? Alice? Well anyways what do you wanna know?" Said Alex as they walk towards town.

"Well What I want to know is what did you see during the Ritual?" Said Alice. "I guess it was a dark room with a red mist. I can feel it like it feels very violent." Said Alex. "Hmm I see anything else?" Said Alice. "Let's see there was voices like 3 of them." Said Alex. "Can you describe these voices like as a person." Said Alice while writing down.

"Well the first one sounded like middle-age man a bit rough but knows which words to use. The second one sounded even more old but this time in a much harsher tone. And the third one is the most violent one sounding more like a delinquent." Said Alex. "I see... Your case is interesting why not we be partners for this development of yours?" Said Alice. "Well I don't know about that." Said Alex.

"Oh, don't you worry I won't mess with your training I'll just come and visit the town every other week since I have to visit other continents for research but your situation is just interesting not to write about." Said Alice. "Sure sounds about right." Said Alex. "Well then thank you Mr. Alex for cooperating with me today I'll see you around." Said Alice as she leaves.

Alex went back home to train again and train he will for the next few weeks. Seems like the voices hasn't been talking to Alex during this week and he has been tirelessly training since the incident. When someone from the Head Council of the continent called him. "Mr. Alex I presume? You're invited to meet the Councilors and the Apostle Castle." Said the messenger.

"When is this meeting gonna occur?" Said Alex in response. "Right now sir the carriage will be waiting in front of your house." Said the messenger. "So I'll meet the Apostle huh. Why would they be interested in meeting me?" Said Alex. "Sadly I can't tell you the reason right now until we ride the carriage." Said the messenger. "Okay I guess. Let me change my clothes before we go." Said Alex. "Take your time Sir." Said the Messenger.

After that Alex left the town to go to the Apostle's Domain. "Now before we begin Mr. Alex are you okay with the current situation? Or is it something in your mind right now? Take your time to think we're gonna be in this journey for a while...
