Naturally, He willed three points to Health. A refreshing feeling immediately went through his body, easing his pain. However, he decided to save the remaining seven points. He looked at the points for luck and a crazy idea came to his head. He was going to test a theory about the effectiveness of Luck on his life. After all, the system was called FATE CHANGE SYSTEM. Yet, for some reason, it gave points to LUCK instead of Fate.
This was a very important detail. One that a curious Mind like Chiron's wanted to try. But for now, he had to rest. As he looked at his stats and how another change had been made, it made him smile. Even though it was small, it was still not bad in his own opinion.

Days went by slowly, as Chiron's effort was more concentrated on healing. What he had done to himself, was something even a rabid dog would not do to its own tail. His hands were in very terrible shape. Since a major of his training involved his hands, he had no choice but to wait it out until he healed completely.
On top of that, there was still the massive loss of blood. Altogether, he estimated that it would take months for him to heal completely.
At one time when Aleen was changing the bandages around his wrists, he asked Chiron what had gone wrong with the Tamashi technique. Chiron had innocently shaken his head, saying that he did not know. All he remembered was the pain being too much and he passed out.
Meanwhile, he had already gotten information from Nora. According to her, Aleen was furious at the condition of his son and even challenged the Chief to fight to the death. But the elders persuaded him saying that it was an unfortunate accident while sealing the Technique on Chiron's body.
Of course, none of them admitted that they had tried to unleash the technique or that they had blanked out in the process. Their pride just wouldn't let them.
Aleen had finally agreed after a lot of his elder colleagues pleaded with him, most especially his very good friend Elder Fatso.
Meanwhile, news of Nora being an S-grade cultivator had already spread around the clan and word had it that it had reached the other sword clans.
In a room in the Clan chief's residence, three people conversed about this particular issue.
"I don't like the result of the Dantain Awakening one bit," Chief Dona pointed out with a frown on his face.
"Me too!" Joules added but in a very low tone.
This two were in a sour mood. The hatred between Allen and Dona ran deeper and colder than a lot of people knew.
"I agree, the chief's son was supposed to be the star of the ceremony, but it went to that useless Aleen," Elder Fatso added.
"We have to do something about this. It is a tradition that the strongest person in every generation becomes chief of the clan. I had hoped that Cablen would take my place, but that useless girl came out with an S grade. And at a very young age at that. DAMN IT!"
*BOOM!*
Dona was so angry that he punched the ground with so much force that it left a deep hole in it.
"Joules! This is all your fault! Why didn't you chase the girl away when you saw her at the ceremony?" Dona asked.
Joules bowed her head on the floor, "I'm so sorry husband. I didn't think that the sword would touch the girl."
Joules was right. This was not the first time that a child below seven years of age stayed while the Dantain ceremony occurred. There were even situations in the past where worried mothers would attend the ceremony with their newborn or younger children in hopes that some miracle occurred, but the sword never ever touched the underaged children.
However, there was always a first time for everything. Dona's fear was that Nora was going to become stronger than Cablen in time and this was undoubtedly a reality. People with S grade Dantain were literally considered to be children of the heavens. In a world where the strong ruled, they were really favored by the heavens.
Dona sighed. His mind trying to come up with a quick solution to this problem, especially now that it was still a seedling. He knew that with enough time, Nora would eventually also surpass him in strength. In fact, if not that the news had already spread around the clan and to the neighboring clans, he would have definitely found a way to kill the little girl.
But there was also his brother as a major issue. Now that Nora was surely destined to be great, it was not an exaggeration to say that Aleen was going to exert helicopter parenting to its full.
As he was lost in thought, the place became silent for a while.
Just when frustration was starting to set in, Fatso coughed lowly. Dona immediately turned to him. He knew Fatso well. He only coughed when he had an idea.
"You may speak Fatso." Dona encouraged.
"Thank you, My chief," Fatso bowed slightly before continuing. "I have a method that could work out well. I mean it could work out very well for you and your family, especially in the long run."
"Go on!" Dona encouraged.
"But, this plan will naturally not work without elder Aleen's agreement. But I'm most definitely sure that he would agree in a heartbeat. This plan will ensure that you don't have to get rid of the girl. In fact, you can use her strength well for the benefit of the clan and still have your son become chief."
These were miraculous words in Dona's ears. "I'm listening..."
