《Death… And Me》Death... And Me

Inna immediately followed the elders' orders. Just like Rivio, everyone paid attention when she started to come forward. That only contributed to the little girl to be even more nervous. Her friends tried to cheer her up, though, which helped a little.
Soon, she arrived above the stage and started her test. Spiritual Energy began to gather around her hands at a frightening speed. Alanda couldn't help but feel impressed with that vision. It was the first time in his life he saw a Blue Color Aptitude going through the Affinity Test, after all. Her control over the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth is on a completely different level compared to the others.
Of course, only Alanda knew about her real aptitude in this place, so others thought that perhaps it was normal. Her Orb brightened instantly, and a deep blue color spread around. The water element showed by the Orb was so dense that the air around the Orb began to get freezing cold.
Of course, she was the one controlling that Element, so Inna didn't feel anything. Right after, the small Affinity Orbs around the Main Orb began to lit up as well. One, two, three, four, five... It only took a second for all of them to get bright. Next, the Sixth Orb lit up entirely as well. Alanda couldn't help but praise her talent inwardly. She is already above him and Juri. Alanda and Juri are both Green Aptitude Level elders, and their element affinity also lit up 6 small orbs.
However, their sixth Orb barely lit up at their time. In Inna's case, her sixth Orb was fully brightened. But it didn't stop there. Although just barely, the seventh Orb lit up as well. This was the first time Alanda had seen the seventh Orb on.
Inna seemed to have reached her limit, so he stopped her there. When Inna tried to take her hands away from the Affinity Main Orb, she noticed that they were stuck there. It turned out that a thin layer of ice gathered around her hands, which prevented her from taking her hand away.

"Good, very good, excellent!"
Alanda then put his hands over Inna's ones and used his control over the Spiritual Energy to melt the ice holding her there. After that, he patted her head.
"You have a level 7 Water Affinity. Later on, I will pass you a few Water Cultivation Techniques for you to practice after you enter the Energy Gathering Realm. Just like Rivio, I'm also looking forward to your future. Don't waste your talent, understood?"
Inna nodded shyly and quickly left the stage.
Rean and Roan also saw that.
"Do you think our Element Affinity will surpass her?"
Roan pondered a bit and then said.
"We should be. After all, we were already able to feel the presence of Spiritual Energy when we were born. In theory, whatever Element it is, it should be at least at her level."
Rean nodded, and then he got an idea.
"Wanna bet on who has the highest affinity?"
Roan's interest was picked almost instantly.
"What are the stakes?"
Rean showed a bright smile and said.
"One entire week of desserts."
Roan narrowed his eyes. It is his first time having a living body. Roan had lived (or deathed?) for countless years. However, hungriness was something he had never felt during that time. Only after Roan got a living body did he understand the pleasures of food. Because of that, he considered his dessert to be worth as much as his life!
Of course, on the other side, Rean also loved eating very much. Because of his Soul issue during his past life, he had never enjoyed or felt anything. So he, too, only came to understand the happiness of eating good food now.
Rean and Roan's mother is quite good at cooking. Even though there weren't many types of food in the Tribe, Hamarlia knew how to make the best with what she had. Between the things she could make, there were also a few very simple desserts. However, both Rean and Roan valued those desserts more than anything else in this new life.

Rean and Roan looked at each other, and sparks could almost be seen coming out their eyes. For the winner, heavens awaited. For the loser, only a path straight to hell. There would be no turning back after this.
They gave each other a handshake and said at the same time.
"Deal!"
Even though Alanda was observing the testers, he had always kept part of his attention on Rean and Roan. When he noticed the killing intent in their eyes while they looked at each other, he almost jumped with the intention of stopping a life and death battle. But right after, they made a handshake, which made him feel like crying too. Weren't they going to kill each other?
"Just what the hell are those two demons up to?"
The tests continued, and it soon was Roan's time.
"Roan Larks, come forward."
Roan looked at the direction of the stage and made his way there. Right behind him was Rean. The two of them had arrived together, so Rean was sure that he would be called over right after Roan. That being the case, he might as well stay close to the stage.
Roan quickly ascended to the stage. Different from all the other kids, there wasn't a single hint of nervousness on his face. If anything, it looked like he was entering a battlefield. It was as if his life and death would be determined during this test.
Alanda really couldn't understand what was wrong with him.
"You can start your test."
Roan nodded and put his hand over the Transparent Orb. Faster than any other kid before, including Inna, Spiritual Energy gathered around his hand. The sight made Alanda frightened! Roan's control over the heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy was simply ridiculous!
Roan was 100% focused on this task, doing his all!
Right after, the color of his affinity Element Finally appeared. It was... completely Dark! Alanda felt like he was hallucinating. Is there such thing as a Dark color for the Elemental Affinity Test? However, he seemed to have heard something about it from Juri before.
However, Roan couldn't care less about the color of his Main Orb. In his eyes, only one thing mattered. Lighting up as many small affinity orbs as possible!
But it was this moment that he heard...
*PANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN*
Roan almost jumped in fright! His concentration was completely gone! He could barely keep the flow of Spiritual Energy now. Right after, a deafening sound of rock music started to play in his mind!
Rean, on the other side, had an evil smile on his face. He was using his connection with Roan's Soul to play one of the craziest rock music types. While the music was playing, he also took the chance to say.
"I hope you like HEAVY METAL! Hahahaha!"
In the end, Roan couldn't concentrate properly and was only able to lit up Seven Small Orbs with Black color. At least, they really lit up completely. Without even looking at Alanda, Roan left the stage. But not before giving a death gaze at Rean on the back.
"You are not the only one who knows how to play this game."

The Second Coming of Fate [A High Fantasy Story]
Prologue Arc: The Day That Begins Your Fate - COMPLETED Story Arc 1: Chaos in the Lamorian Kingdom - ONGOING Please consider following/leaving a rating. I plan to turn this into a long lasting series, and it would really mean a whole lot to me. :) ----- Having succumb to amnesia, Galvin one day appears in the Grand Forest east of the capital kingdom Lamora. For the next two months, he lives a perfectly carefree yet boring life until one fateful day changed everything. Encountering all sorts of characters and dealing with all sorts of shenanigans, Galvin begins to experience visions of what appears to be the future. With this newfound power in a world full of magic, yet plagued with war, discrimination, and brutality, will Galvin be able to change fate…or die trying? ----- Do you like stories where the protagonist doesn't start out strong and is deeply character driven (with a LOT of inner monologues)? A story that has its fair share of comedic and dark moments? Well then you've come to the right place! However, if you're looking for LitRPG mechanics, then unfortunately, this story doesn't contain too many of them. The dynamics of the story will be based on real life physics and mechanics (with a bit of magic of course!) Also, I delve deeply into a lot of disturbing topics, so readers do be warned. However, if any of this sounds interesting to you, then please come by and give my story a read. ----- Expect releases as soon as possible (which is like 4 - 10 days). Just know that I'm writing this story as it progresses, so a lot of first drafts are to be expected. :D
