Chapter 75 Mira\'s reward
At first she couldn\'t handle the intense influx of information that forced its way into her mind, but she used her willpower to push through the pain.
Luckily, the process only lasted a few seconds. \'Alex was right, there was nothing negative about this. In fact, this is probably the best I\'ve ever felt in my life…\'
Mira tried to calm herself down and checked her own details, completely forgetting that Alex was also in the room with her due to her excitement,
[Details]
Name: [Mira Mistborn]
Age: [17]
Talents: [Golden Presence(A-), [Call of the Void(S)]
Trait: [Enlightened]
Trait Description: [You\'ve learned the truth of the world, realising that you are just an ant in the face of the true powerhouses of both your universe, and the Primordial Expanse. But there is something mysterious within you. Your potential is limitless.]
Trait Effect: Learning speed increased by 1%
Rank: [Evolver]
Soul core: [E- 22%]
Soul Classification: [Ordinary - 0%]
At first, Mira\'s face soured when she looked at her name, but she quickly recomposed herself and moved on.
Just like Alex, she looked over all of the new details that had been added, being particularly surprised by her trait description.
\'My potential is limitless? That can\'t be true…\'
She had no idea what the system meant by this.
There were many people out there with better talents than her, along with better traits.
And after finding out about the classifications, she felt even more inferior in comparison.
She felt she was even inferior to Alex.
But, her eyes immediately stopped when she looked at her talents.
\'I have two now…\'
Her heartbeat quickened as she read the name of her new talent, and it thrummed like a drum when she saw the large, bold \'S\' next to it.
Her heart was so loud at this moment that even Alex was pulled out of his thoughts by the sound of it.
\'What\'s going on with her?\'
He looked at her, a little concerned with the sudden elevation in her heart rate.
But when his face met hers, he knew she wasn\'t in any danger or anything.
Her face was one of pure joy.
"Get something good?" Alex asked, a smile on his own face when he noticed how happy Mira was.
\'At least one of us got something good out of this.\' He thought.
"Yeah…" She answered absentmindedly, too busy reading through the description of her new talent.
[Call of the Void (S)]
[Through your exceptionally high affinity with space, you have gained this miraculous ability to drift into the void, a mirror dimension beyond your own.]
The description was vague, but it evoked a grandiose feeling. \'What kind of place is the void…\'
Although Mira was absolutely clueless about what exactly her talent did, she was ecstatic nonetheless.
There was no such thing as a useless talent!
This was especially the case with S rank talents.
Meanwhile, Alex was still standing there, awkwardly waiting for a reply from Mira.
He had been waiting for a whole minute after asking Mira what she got, and she didn\'t even pay any attention to him.
\'Finally!\' n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Eventually, she woke up from her dazed state and turned around, facing Alex.
She looked at him, putting on a sad and depressed face.
"What\'s wrong? Did you not get anything? Don\'t worry about it, I wasn\'t much luckier either. I only got an F- rank talent from mine. I doubt it\'ll ever be of use to me." He spoke to her, trying to cheer her up.
But, when Mira heard Alex\'s self deprecating words and how he tried to cheer her up, her cheeks immediately flushed red.
She felt too embarrassed trying to trick him like this…
"Err… Actually, I did get a talent." Hiding her embarrassment, she dropped the sad look and spoke up.
"Oh really? Well congrats! We both gained a talent!" Alex cheered, genuinely happy for her.
"It\'s an S rank talent." She spoke again.
Alex: "..."
Mira: "..."
"…"
"What? I don\'t think I heard you right." Alex stuffed his ear with his finger, trying to figure out what was wrong with his hearing.
\'I almost thought she said \'S rank\', yeah right, haha.\'
"I said I got an S rank talent." Mira repeated herself.
Alex didn\'t say anything.
He didn\'t even look at her.
He turned around and fell face flat on his bed, mumbling:
"Why… Why… Why am I so unlucky…"
Mira looked on from the side, unsure what to say.
She knew things would become awkward when Alex revealed the talent he got was only F- rank, the lowest the ranks can go.
***
It took an hour for Alex to accept what Mira had told him as the truth, but he was still shaken when she told him what her talent did.
"So you\'re telling me that you can enter this so-called \'Void dimension\', and that\'s all you know?" Alex questioned.
"Yup, that\'s all it says." Mira answered.
"Why don\'t you test it out then. See what exactly this void dimension is." To Alex this was the obvious thing to do.
That\'s what he would do if he were in her situation.
Mira was speechless though.
\'Right now?\'
"Test it out here? But we\'re in a moving spaceship. What if I enter the void dimension and come back to empty space… I don\'t want to suffocate to death in the emptiness of space."
"..."
"You make a valid point. Perhaps we should test it out when we reach Planet Hortus. Speaking of, how do we get to Capital Prime University from there?"
Alex shifted the topic of the conversation.
Mira looked out the window of Alex\'s room into the endless darkness for a few seconds before answering.
"We\'ll be taken back to Planet Hortus where we\'ll be dropped off. At that point we have 6 months before we have to make our own way to uni." Mira looked at her communicator and read the details out to Alex.
"But how are we supposed to make our way over there? I have no money…"
Alex and Mira both went silent.
This wasn\'t something they had considered.
