Chapter 145 - People



"Even the stone has a "Pillar of Soul"...?" Evan was surprised at Draven\'s words. Until this moment, he had never considered the fact that even an ordinary wooden table not only has its purpose, but also its essence.

"Yes, the same goes for materials. If the "Pillar of Soul" of your chosen material has one platform, it means that it can be used to make a weapon of the first rank. That way you can find really good materials and give them to a blacksmith who will forge a great weapon. However, there is one problem." Draven said slowly.

"What\'s that?" Evan asked puzzled.

"You can\'t see the "Pillar of Soul" of the creatures or things that surpass you by more than one level. For example: if you cast the "Eye of Truth" on a first-ranked sword, you will see its "Pillar of Soul", but if you want to do the same with a second-ranked spear, you can\'t. The same goes for humans, monsters, and beasts." Draven replied.

"I see, but if the other person wants to show his "Pillar of Soul" himself, then I can see it, right?"

Draven nodded.

There was silence in the room for a while. Evan pondered what he had heard, while Draven quietly drank his whiskey. He understood that Evan needed to sort out his thoughts and think over all the information he had received.

"Draven, I only have one question left about the "Pillar of Soul", something I don\'t understand." Evan said calmly.

Draven didn\'t answer anything and just waited for the young man\'s words.

"Why was there no mark on your "Pillar of Soul"? This rat had, and as I understand it, beasts also have their own unique mark that distinguishes them from everyone else."

"There is nothing surprising or strange about that, all because I am human. Your "Pillar of Soul" doesn\'t have a mark either, just like all humans in this world. There are no exceptions." Draven said calmly.

"But, why don\'t people have a mark? Even this table and the chairs we sit on have their own markings. It seems as if there\'s something wrong with the human race." Evan said puzzled.

"Oddly enough, you\'re right. I don\'t know why, but humans really don\'t have the markings. I have a suspicion that it has something to do with our "Warps" and the ways in which we become stronger. How do I explain my point to you..." Draven spoke slowly.

Draven hesitated for a while, but a few seconds later the ring on his finger glowed brightly and the most ordinary piece of paper appeared in his hands. 

Draven pointed to the sheet and said: "It`s we, this sheet is people."

Evan understood what Draven was trying to tell him. Demien once had broached the subject and made a very "flattering" statement about what he thought of people, the world, and everyone else.

"Unlike monsters and beasts, we have no inherent advantages. From the birth, we are the weakest creatures in this world, and most remain so for the rest of our lives. Only those with an awakened talent for magic can compete with other races". Draven said.

He sighed and continued: "Perhaps our "Pillars of Soul" have no marks, because originally we were the weakest beings in this world, i.e., humans. Then we became magicians, who are inherently different beings than humans, but we are still humans. Out of nothing we became something, but our position in the world cannot be evaluated in any way. We\'re creatures who can be expected to do anything."

Evan smiled and said slowly: "One my acquaintance said that humans are a mistake, and to some extent he was right."

"AHAHAHAHAHA, I agree, okay, Evan, both of us has business to attend to. The opening ceremony starts very soon and we both need to be there. Go back to your room and I\'ve got something else to do."

"Got it, thanks for the lesson and the treat." Evan said with a smile, took one last sip of whiskey and got up from the table.

Evan headed for the door, but suddenly Draven stopped him: "I completely forgot to tell you. Evan, practice using the "Eye of Truth" in front of the mirror. You need to make sure your iris doesn\'t glow, it passes you off, and it can get you in trouble. A little practice and you\'ll achieve that result."

"Okay, see you later." Slowly Evan mouthed and went away.

The only thing left in the room was Draven and a half-empty bottle of whiskey.

"What a beautiful day it is..." Slowly Draven muttered looking up at the blue sky and the slowly floating clouds.

...

Evan was also in a good mood. The morning of that day had begun very strangely for him. At six o\'clock in the morning he was taken to the arena, where he battled monsters. In the end, he won, found a great teacher and had already learned a very useful spell.

What\'s more, he`d learned a lot of new things. Draven told him about things like the "Gust",the "Splash", and the "Pillar of Soul". He only talked with Draven for a couple of hours, but the amount of knowledge he gained was enormous. That\'s not to mention the fact that Draven guided him during his "Eyes of Truth" training.

"If I hadn\'t lasted ten seconds yesterday and become an "Inner student", none of this would have happened. I would have just woken up at seven in the morning, gotten a list of teachers, and waited for the opening ceremony to begin." Evan muttered slowly as he crossed the threshold of his room. A few hours later, the young man would already be in another house in an area of the city. He would receive a thousand "Moon Coins" for participating in the test that morning. Evan thought that should be enough to rent the right house for him.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

After a while, Evan heard a knock on the door. He hurriedly opened it and saw a girl in a yellow mantle. She had short black hair and green eyes. She was a student of the fourth rank, as well as an Amplifier and an Inner student.

"Come, I was told to escort you to the amphitheater."

Evan nodded and thought, <This time a living person came to me, not a soulless Golem>.

The young man glanced at the sign on the girl\'s mantle, <She\'s a fourth rank student, I wonder how long it took her to get there>.

They walked for quite a long time and neither of them uttered a word the whole time. Evan thought about what had happened and what he should do next. It\'s worth noting that Evan was not the only one the attendant came for.

Enni walked past him and followed the guy in the blue mantle, as well as Lars and Chloe who followed the fourth rank students.

<This is the moment.> Evan thought as he entered the amphitheater hall.
