Chapter 269: Challenge-2
After seeing that Athan had entered the glass room, The staff nodded towards him before saying, " I'll start the test now. " Afterward, He went towards a long handle that was beside the glass room and when he was about to push it down, He heard a familiar voice and stopped.
" Rarely soone pass the test and most of them give up halfway. Let's see how long this pretty boy can endure. "
A young man who wore luxurious clothing comnted with a smile. He wasn't a human and had a single dark red horn on his forehead. He also had two small and slim wings behind his back.
The staff hurridly paid respect to this young man as if he was so respected entity.
Though Reikent grinned towards the young man and spoke, " Want to bet? I bet a thousand low-grade chaos stones that he will complete the challenge. "
The young man had two other middle-aged n standing behind him, so it seed that he was either a son of soone influential in this town or from a prominent clan around here.
The young man looked at the staff and asked openly, " What's the level of his primal essence? "
The staff hurridly spoke without wasting the young man's ti, " First level connection. He is a novice Ascenders. "
" Hahaha. Although Ascender's level is not essential in this challenge since they aren't allowed to use their primal essence, but it shows how long one stayed in the Chaosverse and if they normally trained their body and mind in regular physical training and ditation. "
Saying this, The young man took out a pouch and threw it at the staff before he grinned at Reikent, "? That said, There's no need to bet as I don't want your chaos stones. But If this pretty boy wins, then he can take these five thousand low-grade chaos stones. "
Reikent was surprised, " So generous? "
The young man grinned, " These asly chaos-stones are just a tiny change that I got from this shop after buying things. If he can complete this challenge despite being at Novice Ascenders, he deserves this small change. Though, I doubt that will happen. "
He then looked at the staff and spoke, " Alright, You can push down that handle now. "
The staff nodded and pushed the handle down as change started to happen inside the glass room.
Athan closed his eyes and sat down crossed-legged after seeing this change.
First, A purple fla appeared inside the glass room, which caused Athan's pure white-colored skin to turn purple before it started to crack.
But people were shocked to see that Athan didn't twitch a single muscle, nor he frowned.
" Does he not feel pain? That purple fla ought to burn his skin and then slowly seep inside him. "
" You can't judge a book by its cover indeed. His looks and his current situation don't match. Just look at how indifferent he is to this pain. "
...
Two minutes passed, and the observer's astonishnt increased along with the intensity of the fla.
Athan didn't try to block this fla using his power and just let it burn his internals. His body's natural healing factor slowly recovered him be he cared not as he was oblivious to this level of pain. He knew that he could recover slowly after coming out of the glass room.
" Huu...That pretty boy is starting to look like a devil to simply because of his lack of any kind of response and expression in his current state. "
Hearing this comnt, Other present people nodded.
Reikent's eyes shined as he nodded, and the young with a single horn on his forehead was also surprised and felt impressed.
When the ti hit two minutes and thirty-second mark, Athan felt a force invading inside his body while trying to affect his mind. The force entered through the void region and hit his soul, but nothing happened to Athan's soul, and since nothing happened to his soul, His mind was also perfectly fine. The force kept trying to hurt his soul but failed every ti.
Present people knew that the most challenging part started after the two-and-a-half-minute mark. Still, they simply lost it when Athan showed absolutely no expression and didn't even move his eyebrows after three minutes passed.
Even Reikent was shocked about this because the pain inflicted on the soul is higher than physical pain, and he felt that even Athan would show reactions to it, but he was proven wrong.
The ti passed, but the present people just silently watched Athan bathing in purple fla while showing absolutely no sign of enduring anything.
When the five minutes passed, and everything subsided, The young man laughed out loud before he turned out and started walking, " Let's go. My trip to this town was worthwhile watching this. "
He expected to see an ant dancing in the fire while screaming, but he saw a monster burning in hell without any expression as if he was just sitting there normally. It was worth watching, indeed.
Athan ca out from the glass room with his burnt skin as the staff hurriedly rushed to him with a smile, " That was aweso. I have no regret in giving you these two thousand plus the five thousand low-grade chaos stones. Here is another five thousand chaos stone from the young master Eldemik."
Athan simply nodded and took the pouch that contained seven thousand five hundred low-grade chaos stones. He glanced at the back of the young master Eldemik for a second before he walked towards the Reikent, who showed thumbs up towards Athan while grinning.
" That was an eye-opener for . I wonder how you managed to endure the soul pain. It should drive general people's minds crazy in pain, and even tough guys would suffer. "
Athan shook his head with a wry smile, " I...am just used to feeling pain. That's all. " He rembered the hell where he died once as his body was devoured by the darkness of nothingness and then his soul. Only he knew how much pain he felt at that ti to his soul.
He then changed the subject as he spoke, " Let's go and buy that armor and return to the organization. I want to go back to practice. "
