The Next Defender

150 Grit 2

Jen heard this and explained, "I am an outsider, it would be troublesome for me...!"

"Then, you are guest here...I would personally check for the process...you need to wait an hour until I get back the registered papers...!" receptionist stood up and went inside and another receptionist took her seat.

Jen turned to look around for an hour, there were many shops on each floor of this building.

Some were selling crafts of one grade and everything which was required to learn an Aptitude, whether it was guidance chapbook, material required or there were some seniors who could provide better mentoring once hired.

The third floor was brimming to the full due to the sell of lower grade crafts.

She had to buy a ticket to reach forth floor, it was like a grand opening of something and a great concert was initialized to grab the attention of everyone around.

Some women wearing veils were performing on stage but the eyes could see the hidden beauties, swaying their enchanting figures.

Today chief guest was city archon, he was brimming with joy, he was here to announce that he got an Escort Sentient by a pure contract and process.

Escort Sentients were considered second shadow, custodians or companions of thick and thin, always standing by the side of Contemplator who was escorted.

It was sheer luck and struggle which if proved fruitful, a powerful beast would accompany whole life becoming the subordinate of the Contemplator.

All kinds of such faithful and powerful beast lived in a most organized dwelling, Macabre Dwelling Manias.

Anyone who could bear the expenses to stay there and had the temper to harness the affection of a powerful beast could earn this opportunity of a lifetime.

But it was too depending on luck.

Few who went there tried there best but were rejected by the beast would return empty-handed.

The first and foremost reason was a little strange.

Every beast observes the Contemplator who wished to be escorted by, its conceptions of right and wrong either they match with the temperament of concerning beast or not.

Most of all, how that Contemplator considered the wellness of his beast, how would he treat his beast in the future.

City Archon was fortunate enough to earn the affection of ten feet height, Vulture Flying Beast.

He was the chief guest and at the end of the concert, he would appear with his Escort Sentient and would show some excellent collaboration moves with his newly acquired Sentient.

The status of City Archon was second in Standing, and it was always feared position.

The concert ended pleasantly and the organizers welcomed him on a grand stage, he walked up with large strides.

He cleared his throat and spoke, "Hello everyone, in this beautiful evening, I have the honor to show up my face...!" he was all smiling, people applauded for his harmless anodyne.

He was the indeed capable person to run the biggest affairs very nicely in this Manias.

He was commendable City Archon indeed.

He was the second most powerful personage of this Manias.

That did not mean that he was soft and mild in his dealings of bad people, he was feared when he got angry, the doomsday began if someone caught and brought red-handed in front of him.

He abandoned and punished his wife because she punished a flunky so severely that he could not survive though it was not a big issue for the powerful to take the life of the week.

"I wanted to change the agreed tempo of the gathering here, ahem, I don't want to embarrass the organizer here...I would like to invite two volunteers from among you all to join me with the collaboration moves..and for fairness...that's the headache for organizer...!!" the City Archon smiled broadly to look at the organizer.

Cheers broke up for the City Archon.

People were excited to hear this.

Who would not wish for this opportunity?

The purpose of this opportunity was to give a chance young blood to look and inspire their life and struggle to become invulnerable and great in the future.

They wished that they might be the one chosen.

"I am greatly honored by City Archon to accept my invite and now to help fulfill this task...all the spectators here...you guys purchased a ticket to enter in this gathering...we have carbon of that ticket so we are going to administer lucky draw for the two volunteers who would be given chance to learn from Mr. City Archon Yue...!!" the great hall applauded for this given opportunity.

Jen was looking all this and she thought it was past one hour, she should go back to fetch the Ace Store as soon as possible.

Soon two carbon was brought up from a thousand carbons.

The organizer recited the numbers written on it.

All the people present in the hall checked their tickets but to their disappointment, they were not the lucky one, only one man raised up his ticket.

No second person stood to report that his or her ticket number was the same.

The organizer waited for a few breaths.

The ticket in the hand of Jen, lit up, after five breaths.

Two or three people who were around her sighed.

Jen did not know why this ticket lit up.

The organizer found that a girl won lucky draw also but she did not run toward the stage with excitement instead she was ready to leave the grand hall.

"Miss, congratulations, you are selected volunteer... please come on the stage...!" the organizer smilingly invited her.

The girl poked her elbow to tell Jen that she should hurry to go.

"I am an outsider... I think I don't qualify to go on stage and steel a chance set for natives...!" Jen was not interested to go.

She bought a ticket just to visit the fourth floor, not to volunteer for something instead of natives.

"Oh, you are an outsider, we are hospitable people... come freely...!" the City Archon waved his hand.

He whistled and a giant Vulture Flying Beast came and stood by the side of City Archon.

It was not adult yet and when it would be adult, its size and power would increase.

Thought it was standing obediently but its powerful seeping energy essence was evident enough to tell its might.

Many people got envious that they did not get this opportunity.

Jen dragged her feet toward the stage.

"What you are going to do with this_human_!" Mini Mosa carefully walked behind her.

"Are you afraid of Vultures?" Jen asked unexpectedly.

"I don't have enough knowledge whether blessed creatures should fear vultures or not_!!" Mini Mosa tilted her head as per thinking.

Jen reached the stage, all the gazed shifted from her to her pet.

Her attire was evident that she was the noblest girl of some great standing and her pet represented the might behind her.

Who would allow a younger girl to walk around with a precious creature tagging along with her?

She was definitely not afraid of any threat.

While the spectators were in a frenzy of emotions, Jen asked without any appreciation, "What I am supposed to do_?"

The City Archon was also shocked to see her pet but composed himself immediately, "We are here to demonstrate some collaborative moves and both of you would break them through your learnings...remember you can use whatever means you wanted...I will check my contemplation at your present level to make your attack plausible for you...!" the City Archon explained unhurriedly.

Jen nodded without asking further.

The giant Vulture Flying Beast and the Archon took some steps back to make a ring between them.

The city Archon opened up his dominion and spread, while his Escort Sentient was on hold, currently.

The man was also prepared.

People held their breaths to not miss any detail.

Jen also spread her Sage dominion.

Both dominions clashed with one.

People were a little disappointed that she was just Sage in her Contemplation learning.

Then what made her so to come out fearlessly with her precious pet alone?

Both increased their energy consumption.

This made the surrounding stifle.

The City Archon was still easy with the present level.

Jen opened her Eye of Dark Sight and blackness filled the stage, Vulture came in action and released his powerful and oppressive dominion to save his master.

It flapped its wings and produced small wind Storm to shatter the blackness.

It was truly terrifying to stand in this wind storm.

The man was also having a hard time.

Jen increased her energy to maintain her feet on the ground.

She dragged City Archon in her dominion, Vulture preserved him.

Jen and the man were collaborating but the man produced his weapon suddenly and hurled toward City Archon, the weapon convert into hundreds of scissors and flew toward City Archon.

The Vulture flew up and flapped its wings and the man was sent flying, fortunately, watch guards were quick in actions and saved him from flying beyond.

The next target of Vulture was Jen.
