Ceres

16

Amidst the silence, Old Pang decided to speak. He clearly didn't like the atmosphere right then.

"We're not sure yet. Because of the rarity of certain attributes, we cannot fully say that a specific rare attribute existed only in one person. Although that idea was never thrown away, it was also never proven. However, if that person died, Old Na would certainly know."

"Old Pang is right. I have a way to know how some people are doing and certainly that person is alive and kicking."

Out of nowhere, Old Na told Ceres that he would like to examine her spiritual body with his spirit essence just to be sure that nothing else really happen. One must know that spiritual essence probing was considered offensive. Spiritual essence of other people going inside your spiritual body can also be like other people probing your entire being. They can know your age, level, and attribute and for some, they can even know more information other than those three. However, there are also ways to avoid this type of probing and those are: 1. if you are stronger than the person probing you; 2. if you possess enormous amount of spiritual essences that there are no ripples in your spiritual essences and spiritual body for others' essences to seep through, and; 3. if you have great control towards your spiritual essences which includes those in your surroundings to also hide your own spiritual body and essences.

"I don't mind."

Ceres doesn't understand the importance of examining a person using spiritual essence.

Old Na started using his spirit essence to probe Ceres. As soon as his spirit essence circulated Ceres' spiritual body, a series of images appeared on Ceres' mind and she felt that her spiritual essence which she already replenished was again nearing depletion. The images she saw were about the Time Mage and what he was planning to do next after examining Ceres. The four images were: 1. Ceres saying something; 2. everyone eating over dinner and; 3. Old Na planning to go to a brothel.

The Time Mage, on the other hand, looked blank. This was the first time that he was able to examine Ceres with her completely healed spiritual body and still, he could not even see her level or any other information about her. Actually, he could see nothing! What is really going on here?

"Pervert."

As soon as Ceres blurted out that word, Gil immediately appeared in front of her; ready to take action.

"What are you talking about? I was just..."

Before Old Na continued to speak, a sudden realization came into his mind.

"You! Did you see something?"

"I did see something... About what you will do afterwards."

After Ceres spoke those words, Old Na suddenly stepped back.

"You are not only a space mage but also... A time mage?"

After knowing what Ceres' attribute is, everyone decided to talk over dinner. Because a rare attribute does not follow the path of common attributes, the old men racked their brains as to what they're going to do to help Ceres. They both know that rare attributes must be guided in the right path and must not be easily exposed to others.

Since Old Na is the legendary Time Mage, he can clearly teach Ceres. But, he wasn't sure about sending Ceres to his acquaintance, Space Mage. The problem is that that person is the epitome of being eccentric! And here is Old Na and Old Pang who are also eccentric.

But they all concluded one thing and that is Ceres should not reveal her attribute to others. This problem would still give birth to another problem. Can she keep hiding her attribute? Why can't she just possess a common attribute along with her rare one? Why did she possess two rare attributes at the same time!? Seriously!
