《Death… And Me》Death... And Me

Well, it wasn't just Roan, but Roan and a few of the stronger disciples of the sect. That obviously included Glennie, Falas, Wakaba, Rafin, and quite a few of the Purple and Red Color Talent cultivators. The reason behind that was because Roan wanted to teach them how to guide the younger ones. Checking cultivation manuals, checking their affinities, their habits, their weakness, and whatnot.
"Ruver, right? I can see here that you have Yellow Color Talent. Other than that, what's your Elemental Affinity?" Roan asked as the others watched.
"I-I have an Earth Elemental Affinity, Elder Roan." The kid was obviously nervous, especially after hearing the stories about Roan. He was afraid that Roan would rebuke him straight away and give some harsh punishment.
"Very well." Roan then looked at Vinkin, one of the sect disciples with Purple Color Talent. "Vinkin, you also have an Earth Elemental Affinity, so he would be in your hands. What do you recommend in his case?"
Vinkin pondered over it for a bit before saying, "I would first check his body with my Spiritual Sense and see how his meridian path works. Based on that, I would obtain a few Earth-based cultivation manuals for him to try out. To make sure it's the right choice, I would have him cultivate each one for a day before giving a test of performance with each one."
Roan nodded after hearing that. "Alright. Come here and check his meridians according to what Rean and I taught you."
Rean was the one who excelled at healing and understanding other people's bodies. With that being said, he took his time to tell what he learned during his time acting as a doctor in Dalamu Sect, where he healed many different disciples.
"Yes, Elder Roan."

Vinkin then approached the kid and asked, "Have you ever cultivated before?"
"No, sir."
Immediately, Vinkin saw a problem there. Roan asked him to check the kid's meridians. But since the kid wasn't a cultivator yet, he hadn't opened them yet. That was obviously a test. "Alright, I'll send Spiritual Energy inside your body. Try to feel it."
Vinkin did exactly that for a moment and asked again, "Did you feel it?" The kid nodded and waited for Vinkin to continue. "My Spiritual Energy is different from the environment around you since it was processed by me. However, it's still Spiritual Energy. Now that you know how it is, you should be able to feel the Spiritual Energy around you. You need to use it to enter the first stage of the Body Transformation Realm, Blood Replacement."
Vinkin then gave the kid a few more instructions until the boy finally succeeded in absorbing some Spiritual Energy. After checking the kid's body while he did that, Vinkin thought about the time when he started to cultivate and the Body Transformation Realm manuals he had available. The kid's constitution was somewhat different from his, but he could imagine which of the manuals he had tried before would be a good fit for him.
Vinkin then looked at Roan before saying, "Elder Roan, he's still an ordinary kid, so his meridians aren't open for me to check. However, after probing his body while he absorbed Spiritual Energy, I reached the conclusion that the Gold Mud Body Transformation Manual would be quite good for him."
Roan closed his eyes for a moment before remembering the contents of that Earth-type manual. It wasn't really an actual cultivation manual since one could only be considered a cultivator when entering the Energy Gathering Realm and creating a dantian. It didn't matter for Roan, though. He was just assessing Vinkin's analysis skills to see if it fit the boy. "Indeed, the Gold Mud Body Transformation Manual would be good for him. It's good to see that you had been paying attention to the classes. Alright, send the kid to the manual repository so that he can get it."

Vinkin sighed in relief, knowing that he did a good job. "Yes, Elder Roan."
After that, Roan looked behind where Malo and the others were waiting. "This is the type of thing I want you to do with the rest of the kids. I'll keep my Spiritual Sense spread while you assess the kids. If you have any doubts, come talk to me. Of course, I'll warn you if I see you making some mistake." Roan then looked at the disciples guarding the door. "Alright, send more kids this time. Ask them their Elemental Affinities so that they can match Malo and the others."
Although there were 1587 kids to be checked, Rean and Roan had also taught more than 40 disciples to become real supporters. Each assessment took around five to ten minutes, so it wasn't like it took very long. Roan would receive questions from everyone every now and then and point out mistakes as well. Nonetheless, by the time the last kid left the building, Roan was quite satisfied with the results.
"It seems like you will be able to hold your own even if I'm not here to tell you what to do. Although you came to me to ask questions, the truth was that some of your peers probably already knew the answers, so you could rely on each other. Alright, that's all from me for now. Except for Suana, the rest of you can leave and go back to your own things."
Suana was the disciple who took care of the Mission Hall, and she was later made an elder of the sect. Her abilities at administrating things were very good, so she had her own team to help her with those tasks. She was the one responsible for most of the organization and tasks given during this first sect recruitment.
"Suana, there's a boy called Zuo Fin. Bring him to me later," Roan asked.
Suana was surprised to hear that since Roan would never spend more time than he needed with anyone...except Calina, perhaps. Of course, she didn't ask why and simply nodded. "Alright, Elder Roan."

Life as a neuro-based cryptocurrency miner is far from easy, but there are perks to living on the NeuroWeb. Perks Sendai lost when his long-term home, BlackStar Galaxy, went offline. Without his longtime avatar, his gear, his guild, the in-game cryptocurrency earnings, or even most of his friends, Sendai's going to have to hustle if he wants to make rent in the real world without spending sixteen hours a day pushing algorithms through his skull. His time in the fight pits of New Idaho mean he has a strong Neural-Affinity for melee combat, but the unfamiliar martial arts world of Wind of the Eight Kingdoms will take more than a brawler's instinct to master. If he's ever going to gather up his old crew and take revenge on the jerks who brought down BlackStar he'll need to become top dog in dozens of game worlds, especially if he doesn't want to starve while doing it. At least he's still got his reflexes, his two girlfriends on different sides of the planet, and his real-world pet cat, Mancini.

8 162The Kings of Thendor - The Two Kings
To some, it would probably be obvious. To others – not so much. In the land of Thendor, where magic is mysterious, unmentioned, and sometimes even disbelieved; where kings, queens, and stewards rule, the ages-old kingdom of Alldel remains without its king. Heirs come and go and no one can explain why each one chooses to abdicate to the steward. And who are these heirs, anyway? Some say the line of kings is dead, while others whisper of magic. Some, though few they are, will tell you other kingdoms have interfered, keeping the line of kings from rising in the nation of Alldel. But why? Adric, son of Cassian, heir to the throne of Alldel has come of age and must answer the question, whether to assume the throne, or abdicate as his ancestors had done for centuries. Raised as a blacksmith by a family friend, Adric struggles with the decision to take up his place as King of Alldel, and to make matters worse, a neighboring kingdom has confirmed the rumors of the common folk. An impossibly old king with a centuries-old message arrives and changes Adric’s life in ways he could never have imagined. Adric must decide the future, and perhaps even the fate of the great kingdom of Alldel. Unprepared for this turn of events, he enlists the help of allied kingdoms and even the mystical nymphs of the Tulusbian forest. Some say his actions will start a war on the continent of Thendor. Ohers say he is resurrecting a long forgotten one from centuries ago. Abdicate, or become king? To some, it would probably be obvious. To others – not so much.
8 174The Cursed Imperial Heart
In a world divided into different social classes, a nameless girl starts her journey rather tiring than most kids. Abandoned by her parents, she became a servant at a very young age to a wealthy noble family--the Brotillon, a family of powerful water elementals. Whose head is a well known Viscount. Though the girl was born with shiny brown hair and sparkling brown eyes, it was for that reason that she became a laughing stock to those around her. With no one to turn to for support, she swore to learn how to use magic no matter what! But as each day goes by, the beatings and humiliation got worse and worse. Finally had enough, she lashed out screaming! Done with the world she lived in! Done with her life! Only to faint out of exhaustion afterwards. Upon opening her eyes, she expected nothing more than an empty room with no one inside but her. However, it was the opposite! A room full off doctors and worried faces?! Indeed, she must have hit her head so hard when she fainted! She's probably just hallucinating, right?! But to her shock, it was all real! The Viscount who constantly beat her, patted her on the head?! The mistress who ridiculed her every chance she got, was worried?! Not just that, but----CRYING?! This continued for the next few weeks, and it looked like the 'situation' won't be stopping anytime soon. But she of all people knew, that it was all an act. But the question is, why? She screamed and lashed out at them, so why? Or perhaps, what she really needs to be asking are.... What REALLY happened before she fainted? What are they hiding from her? And lastly, Why are they suddenly interested in her eyes?
