spirit awakening part 2

there were quite a few children gathered inside the building. none of them as cute as me but all holding that childish innocents that is lost with the passage of time as the world slowly chips away at it. I was standing next tang san another person like me whose eyes held none of that child like innocents due to the memories of his past life.

the representative of spirit hall stepped forward and made his way around us eyes filled with a look that screams you are inferior to me and you should be grateful I am taking the time out of my life that I will never get back to bless you with my presence on the day of your awakening. i just rolled my eyes at his haughty attitude and sighed. i just wanted to get this day over with.

i already knew that spirit hall was filled with pompous idiots who believe the world owes them everything. I understand that that attitude comes about when you are in a world where might makes right and the person with the most power gets to set the rules. unfortunately the person with the most power right now is spirit hall.

I dont really mind the rules set forth by spirit hall and I can respect them wanting to remove the barrier between nobility and commoners but their methods are too cut throat for me. the mentality that your either with us or your dead is just a little too much for me. I mean I know this world has gods and I even had a conversation with God on my way to this world but that does not mean I want you shoving religion down my throat or to be placed in a position where I have to worship the pope and her people. I'm too beautiful so I'm sure someone with a higher position in spirit hall will totally pull a bibi dong on me and then my story would be equally as tragic as hers and I would probably destroy all the kingdoms and bring down society on my path to rid the world of as*holes. I'm not even joking i will channel my inner orochimaru and get it done.

well thats enough talk of falling to the dark side and committing mass murder on a Continental scale.

while I was having my inner monolog the as*hat cough cough I mean representative from spirit hall had finished praising himself and spirit hall as a whole and was explaining what essence spirit were and how he was a level 26 great master. next thing I know he's shouting transform like he's suffering from 8th grade syndrome and needs lessons on how to be cool. sigh even if I recommend a psychologist to him he wouldn't understand the concept of 8th grade syndrome. next thing I know the kids are freaking out because the man turned into a Werewolf with ugly unkempt finger nails and harry arms.

he picked up the loudest kid and put him in the middle of an array and I was half worried that kid was about to be sacrificed to the devil or God or something when the array started spinning. what came out was a handkerchief. I thought well if the kid had soul power he could totally go and turn that handkerchief into an awesome control tool if he had some imagination and luck. unfortunately he had an essence level of zero and thus he was deemed useless. one by one kids went up and had their essence spirits unlocked but so far none have had an essence level over zero and thus all were deemed useless that is until tang san stepped forth. just like in the original time line he awakened blue silver grass and thus was ridiculed as another junk spirit like the rest. I rolled my eyes at the event that would come next. just like it happened the first time I read this scene he asked to have his essence level tested and the spirit hall representative gave a derisive coment to belittle tang san before tossing the orb used to test spirit essence at him. then a blinding light flashed in the room before all eyes were on tang san. " essence level harmonization" the crowd looked on in disbelief. I of course already knew this was due to tang san being a dual spirit master and practicing the tang sects mistic mind arts but no one else was privy to this information.

the representative sighed in regret that a junk spirit was the one with spirit essence harmonization and called me forth to awaken my spirit essence. I took one step then another before I was standing in front of the pompous jerk cough I mean respected great spirit master. once I was in the awakening circle and the lights indicating a successful spirit awakening flashed i felt my spiritual power surge and gather to form my asauchi.

once my sword was in full view of everyone the representative looked happy. I of course knew that he was happy because he would get a big bonus for every child he recruited to spirit hall that was in possession of a useful spirit essence. I had already made plans for this since I had no wish to be dragged off into the group that would face off against the protagonist of this world since I did not want tang sans and his friends plot armor to screw me over in the future.

the spirit hall representative walked up with an excited look on his face and dollar signs in his eyes. he all but shoved the orb that measures spirit essence levels in my hand and told me to channel my spirit essence into it. I of course held back all my soul energy or reiatsu as it is referred to by my predecessors from bleach. I looked like I was trying hard to push forth my spirit essence but came up blank. the crushed look on his face when he discovered i would not become his next paycheck almost made me lose character and smirk at his misfortune.

" ugj my bonus all gone. why did the junk spirit have an innate spirit level 10 while the useful spirit tool could not even produce a tiny amount of spirit essence. sigh"

he took back the orb before shooting me a look that all but claimed that I had just murdered his dog. I internally smirked at this display and started planning on what my next course of action would be.
