Chapter 17: Idol
"Woah…That's kind of cool." Aisha noted.
"It's… pretty." Aubrey agreed.
Naturally their words were heard by the panicked crowd and they looked at the two girls as if they'd just said the most outlandish words imaginable.
"Are you girls crazy?!"
"It's horrifying!"
"What is going to happen?!"
Suddenly, a sultry feminine voice cut through all the panic. "It's not scary."
Everyone turned to see Luna staring out into the night sky with a mellow expression.
"You're all afraid of what could lie within the dark and not the dark itself. But this…"
Luna's eyes drifted to the black starless sky and a small smile formed on her face. "If you understand him well enough you'll see. His darkness is soothing and comforting. It is as if it's offering protection to wayward souls."
Luna turned to Aubrey and gave the girl a warm smile. "I understand what kind of man your brother is now."
Aubrey returned her smile in kind and watched in awe at what happened next.
Luna's eyes glowed a beautiful reddish pink before a shimmering apparition of a full moon appeared in the night sky.
Her face broke out into a proud and arrogant smile that shot an arrow through the hearts of all the men present.
"As I thought, the two of us are good together no?"

In the exam room everyone was now giving Malachi confused stares.
"Nothings happening.."
"Is one of his powers a dud?"
"It can't be if it's from a primordial right?"
"Performance anxiety?"
"He's been doing fine so far though.."
No one could figure it out.
The man in front of them was just standing around seemingly in a trance.
Even the examiner was stumped.
Why wasn't anything happening?
"Hey are you alr-"
Buzz buzz buzz!!
The examiner took out his phone from his pocket and saw that it was his wife calling.
'She knows I'm at work is something wrong with the kids?'
He hurriedly answered and the panicked voice of his wife echoed throughout the room.
'C-cute?!' Aisha felt like she could die happy in this moment.
Suddenly the sound of footsteps interrupted the group and Malachi looked up to see a handsome blond man in a sky blue suit walking towards him.
'Huh… he's a bit shorter than he looks on tv.'
Of course Malachi recognized one of the most powerful blessed in the world but he wasn't all that excited to meet him.
He knew it was the dream of millions of people all over the world to meet this man but honestly? Mal couldn't really care less.
His favorite blessed was always…
"Holy shit!"
Malachi vanished from his spot next to the girls and ran past the approaching Alex Heller and came to a stop directly in front of Morgan.
"You're Morgan Creed right?! I'm a huge fan!" Malachi shook the hand of the stunned guild master with a wide smile on his handsome face.
Morgan was stunned silly by this development.
He thought he'd lost the opportunity to approach Malachi when he saw Alex heading towards him and had already resigned himself just to give up.
But who would've thought this guy would actually be a fan of his?
'But this kid sure is strange..'
For someone blessed by a goddess of night Malachi was not at all like he expected him to be.
He was so… kind?
Shouldn't he be all edgy and monochromatic?
His charisma was so infectious that it didn't take long before Morgan was wearing a genuine smile as well.
"Yes that's me and I've gotta say young man you have some incredible heaven defying talent."
"I'm just lucky is all." Malachi shrugged.
"H-hey I know you probably get tired of this but do you mind if we take a picture?" He hesitantly asked.
"For you? Of course not!"
Aubrey hurried over and offered to take the picture since she knew how big of a fan her brother was of Morgan Creed.
She felt he deserved to have this momentous day documented properly.
Reporters also took this opportunity to get photos of the world's first man to hold quad blessings.
And judging by his reaction, they were certain they were also looking at the next member of ragnarok.
"Malachi I'd like to offer you a contract with ragnarok. If you're interested in signing right now you'll have ten billion in your account within an hour."
The crowd sucked in their breath.
Ten billion!
Most people here couldn't even dream about that large a sum!
And here he was being offered that at the drop of a hat!
Malachi opened and closed his mouth several times.
Everyone immediately assumed he was so shocked he just didn't know how to respond.
"Wait a second!"
