Everyone Has A Magical Lamp In This World

"I'm so looking forward to it. I'm going to awaken a companion elf today!"

"Yeah, but don't be too happy yet. There are many examples of failed innate elf awakenings. If the awakening fails, I can only be an ordinary person for the rest of my life!"

"It would be great if I could awaken a high-level elf."

"Are you thinking too much? There's a certain chance of losing control during the awakening. If one loses control, the survival rate is only less than 10%!"

In a small classroom, a group of fifteen- to sixteen-year-old students, who still looked a little immature, were discussing in low voices.

Everyone's faces were filled with anxiety, fear, and great desire.

In the crowd, Lorne sat calmly in the back row of the classroom. Unlike the students around him, he looked much calmer and more composed.

'Finally, this day has arrived. I must survive in this world...'

Lorne muttered in his heart.

In the blink of an eye, more than a year had passed since he had transmigrated to this world.

When he first came to this world, Lorne felt extremely insecure. After all, this was an unfamiliar world, so it was normal to feel that way.

From what he knew of history, this was a parallel world similar to his previous life. However, a hundred years ago, the peaceful lives of the people in this world were suddenly broken.

A group of terrifying demons appeared in the human world and massacred wantonly! What cruel death! This group of demons had caused countless deaths and injuries to the human race.

Humans, who originally stood at the top of the world, had suddenly became prey. In just four to five years, the population of the entire world had been reduced by one-third. Just like that, the humans had lived in fear in the past ten years.

Fortunately, the elves who opposed demons were born! At the beginning, people discovered that there were countless magic lamps scattered around the world. Each magic lamp could temporarily protect the humans from harm.

However, facing the fierce demons, the number of humans continued to decrease. Even with the magic lamp's protection, it could only slow down the speed of human extinction.

One day, the humans finally discovered another use of the magic lamp. It was a method that allowed humans to summon elves - using newborns as a medium!

Every human had to choose to take in a magic lamp from the moment they were born and nurture their own accompanying elves.

In the future, if the awakening was successful and the corresponding elves were awakened, they could become spirit envoys.

There were very few envoys and a spirit envoy could only awaken one elf. The elf's strength also determined the envoy's strength.

On the other hand, if someone failed to awaken, the magic lamp would dissipate and return to a certain part of the world. The person would only be able to enter the acquired magic lamp. Even if the person were to awaken in the future, the probability of awakening an elf would be extremely low.

Furthermore, the conditions for receiving the magic lamp after birth were extremely harsh. Without sufficient wealth, it was impossible for them to have a chance at it.

Hence, if a newborn were unable to receive the magic lamp on its first day, then its future would basically be destined to be that of an ordinary person.

Of course, with the emergence of spirit envoys, there would be no lack of talents in this world. Their status in the city was also very revered. However, if they did not become spirit envoys, it meant that they did not have the ability to protect themselves.

If they could not successfully awaken, most people could only become mere workers servicing others or coolies as well as doing menial tasks such as reproductive tasks.

If the next generation could successfully awaken, their status would also be improved. However, no matter how much it was improved, it could not be separated from the category of ordinary people.

In this world, only by becoming spirit envoys could one become superior!

After experiencing decades of terror, this world had long formed a cruel law of survival where the strong preyed on the weak.

After the age of ten, every person who received the magic lamp would enter a special school to equip themselves with knowledge and methods to deal with demons.

Until the age of eighteen, the school would organize a ceremony to awaken the elves. Through the awakening, one's fate would be decided.

This was a systematic method of training that could increase the number of spirit envoys to the greatest extent. The success rate was around 30%.

Through this method, the number of spirit envoys had increased more than tenfold. It was also because of this that the humans managed to gain a foothold in the past hundred years.

They began to slowly expanding their bases and building small cities by relying on powerful spirit envoys.

...

"I hope that my innate elf can be successfully awakened!"

Lorne could not help but think of the magic lamp that he had taken in. The magic lamp had fused into his body, and he could only see it during meditation.

Lorne's magic lamp was crystal clear and it had a bronze-colored texture. It emitted a gentle light, making him feel waves of warmth.

However, Lorne had never felt that there was anything special about this magic lamp.

This time, the light emitted by Lorne's meditative lamp seemed to experience some fluctuations.

"Eh? It seems to be different from before!"

In the past, the lamp would just stay in its body quietly. Even the meditative observing lamp would not have any reaction.

[ Ding, the host's tolerance has reached the standard. The multiverse elven system has been activated... ]

At this moment, a mechanical voice entered Lorne's ears.

"System? My cheats have arrived."

Hearing the mechanical voice, Lorne could not help but feel delighted. After traveling for so long, the system had finally appeared. 

"Stop talking, the teacher is here!"

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the classroom door was pushed open heavily. A person was standing at the door. The noisy classroom instantly quieted down and everyone's attention was focused on the door. A middle-aged man with a cold expression walked in.

Everyone sat obediently and their gaze was focused on the crystal ball-like object in the teacher's hand.

"Hehehe..."

The suddenly opened his mouth and laughed. His voice sounded like it was rubbing against glass, unpleasant to the ears.

However, no one dared to show any strange expressions. It was obvious that the man was a spirit envoy. Although they did not know what level he was at, no matter how weak he was, he was not an existence that these students could look down on.

He opened his eyes and scanned the classroom. His eyes did not have pupils, only pitch-black eyeballs. He was completely different from a normal person. He slowly walked to the center of the podium and then revealed a terrifying smile.

"Let me tell you first. People might die during the awakening process. Does anyone want to quit?" The middle-aged spirit envoy asked coldly.

The temperature in the classroom seemed to have dropped tremendously. Some people showed concern and fear.
