"Whoa, the heck. Why the hell did I become a Bronze-rank Awakened... I expected something bigger from the system," Keith said with disappointment. Even though the system had promised to rank up his talent if he obtained a huge amount of Core Fragments, Keith wasn't satisfied.

Truth be told, he doesn't want stress. Of course, he knew how hard it was for the Supreme Warlord and the Lords to rank up their talent.

However, despite the anger of being a Bronze-rank Awakened, Keith was satisfied to have acquired a Thunder Manipulation talent. This talent was unique on the Blue Planet since the existence of talents, and Keith could believe that no one in the world had the same talent as his.

Plus, he was happy to get additional years to his lifespan. Though it was not a special thing, Bronze-rank Awakeneds' lifespans are not less than two hundred years.

After the assumptions and pondering, Kieth picked his longsword and made his way out of the forest. It took about three kilometers to evacuate the forest, and Keith was utterly exhausted. But still, he endured the fatigue and continued his walk home.

The route leading to his clan was through the Sacred Temple of Eastern continent. The Temple has always been boisterous and lively with the sounds of enchantment utterances and songs. However, today only seemed to be different.

Everywhere was deserted.

The whole city looked stranded as though the Specters had attacked, but Keith's view proved him wrong when he noticed that the atmosphere was normal and unharmed.

The Specters are undead creatures capable of destroying a whole planet without stress. They are known as the most deadly race that ever existed because of their horrific and devastating features. Only their presence alone could mutate the atmosphere, transforming everywhere into a dark and rough area.

They are the strongest dark magicians unlike the Dark Orcs, and would always live with no hope of perishing one day. They are Immortal, but, only the wisest of Awakeneds could slay them by their weak point. When they die, their soul can be absorbed by an Awakened, and the Awakened's skill would upgrade instantly.

However, the same thing applied to an Awakened. If they are killed by a Specter, their core can be absorbed, enabling the Specter to become stronger.

The brutal deeds of the Specters would always bring more fear to the humans, and the humans only depended on the Supreme Warlord for safety. Now that he was no more, that fear had suddenly reappeared in their minds. And this time, it was more significant because of the Origin Gemstone that the Specters had been so desperate to acquire.

Literally, the Specters were surely going to come for it... Now that their greatest foe was dead.

A huge amount of Bronze-rank Awakeneds could be seen on every side of the city. To ensure safety at this moment, the Lords ordered the lowest-ranked Awakeneds to guard the main cities. The Silver and Gold-rank Awakeneds would guard the walls as usual.

Not wanting to make the fear of an upcoming war rule over him, Keith extracted his attention from the deserted aura of the city and continued his journey home. Most Awakeneds looked at him with suspicion and distaste as he walked by, but Keith only ignored and progressed forward.

'You fools would think that I ended up as Commoner just like every member of my clan, but it would end up as a surprise when you see me on the battlefield soon. After killing the Specters, I'll make sure that no one of you will make it back into the walls. You darned and cursed idiots.'

Keith thought with anger.

Soon, he arrived at the Rotunda Clan's fort and went through the wooden gate. Surprisingly, the gates weren't locked as he had advised.

"Did she suddenly got courageous? Why is the gate open?" Keith questioned himself and made his way into the aged fort.

The fort wasn't as large as other forts were. This was because of their poor status in Eastern Territory.

The fort has three buildings in it, each belonging to every son of the Rotunda lineage. Keith's father was the youngest of all the Rotunda sons, but he was the only one with a modern-styled wooden house. The others couldn't afford enough for it, so someone like Sage lives in a thatched house.

Before entering his home, Keith decided to check on Sage. He went into her room to see her lying flat as though she was on the verge of passing out. She was shivering.

Keith's eyes widened in shock, he quickly approached her and placed his palms on her neck. She was hot, and even horny. Keith was spooked.

"What is wrong Sage... Your temperature is high and you look..." Keith paused, not wanting to let out the last word. "What happened?"

"I'm just having a slight fever, that's all," Sage said and covered her chest region with the blanket.

"Whoa, fever turns you on right?" Keith said, "I see."

"What the hell do you mean! I'm feeling sick and you are telling me that uh?!" Sage bellowed.

"Tsk. It's obvious, fever turns you on... I thought you had an Awakened boyfriend. Did you guys break up or something?" Keith asked with a teasing smile.

"Shut the hell up Keith... I never said that."

Sage frowned.

"Then go to him, he can help out with the slight fever," Keith teased again.

After saying those words, before Sage could reply, they heard a sound from the gate. And footsteps followed.

Keith walked to the window at the left side of Sage's room to check out the people with the approaching footsteps. Just as he did, his eyes widened after a comforting smile.

Noticing the sudden act from Keith, Sage who was still lying on her old mattress asked:

"Who's that?"

Keith turned to look at her and grinned.

"They are home!"
