Chapter 20: Chapter 19 : Awakening of Harold

<p>Rai was in his room looking at the blue interference shown before him.<br/><br/>"i have 200 Poke points now, 100 because i defeated Pan. The other 100 is from killing those Treants, according to System i got 10 for killing each Treant. Guess each Treant gave only 10 Points because they were wild. It means i get 10 times more for defeating a Beastmaster." Rai muttered.<br/><br/>"All i need is 100 points to buy a Awakening stone for Harold" Rai thought inwardly.<br/><br/>Looking at the number of points Rai had, he only felt like he is truly a poor person.<br/><br/>"I only wish for Alicia to win the championship now, I would surely receive some good rewards otherwise it will truly be hard for me if i don't have awakening stones for future students" Rai sighed in depressed tone.<br/><br/>"System is there anything i can do to gain more points?" Rai finally decided to ask System this time.<br/><br/>{I nearly forgot i am System, since certain someone was too smart to ask me anything prior to this.} The same usual sarcastic tone was uttered by system.<br/><br/>"Whatever just answer me" Rai just wanted answer this time not any argument.<br/><br/>{Tsk, well you can gain more points by recycling treasures found in this world.} System clicked it's tongue because Rai was not bickering back but nonetheless it still answered Rai's question.<br/><br/>"Treasures huh, guess i have to work harder now" Rai finally got a relief atleast he can collect treasures for points.<br/><br/>He summoned Riolu, immediately through the summoning circle Riolu was summoned.<br/><br/>It looked at Rai and smiled to that Rai also smiled back and patted it's head.<br/>"Let's master the sudden burst of strength so next time we won't be embarrassed like what happened to us against Treant" Rai said with a serious voice.<br/><br/>Riolu also nodded it didn't want to experience that embarrassment again. If not for Rai to save it on nick of time maybe it would have died there leaving Rai alone. <br/><br/>It swore that no matter what happens it will always be there to protect Rai but against Treant it wasn't even able to save itself.<br/><br/>It no longer wish to run away but be strong enough to defeat every upcoming enemies.<br/><br/>"Rioluuu" Riolu clenched it's fist to show it's determination.<br/>"Let's train then, after that we will hold Harold awakening ceremony".<br/>Saying so Rai left already, following him was Riolu.<br/><br/>Soon it was evening time, the sun was setting down. It seemed like sun had finally gone to rest after illuminating the whole world for a whole day. The sun was cool enough to let people see how it looks when setting down. <br/><br/>Those birds flying in sky were finally coming back to their residence after a long day of hunting. Students on streets were seen laughing and talking, they finally got free from classes. <br/><br/>In the Starlight College there were four people present on the ground, They were Rai, Alicia and two siblings. Harold looked quite nervous at that moment because this awakening would be a life changing event for him. <br/><br/>This day he would get his talent, finally embarking on the journey of Beastmaster.<br/><br/>Behind them were Riolu and Axew, who were having a good time playing with eachother. Training with addition of thr rest is the best combination to achieve great feats. <br/><br/>If your body and mind isn't relax you can't have good results from training, not only that, it will also leave some dark wounds in body by constantly exercising the body.<br/><br/>"You don't need to be so nervous just relax" chuckled Rai looking at the nervous Harold.<br/><br/>{Says someone who nearly had his heart on throat when the talent was being chosen on roulette } Suddenly system's voice reverted in his mind mocking him.<br/>"You don't have to mock me all the time you know " Rai was pissed off at that moment.<br/><br/>{I was just merely stating the facts} System replied with nonchalant attitude.<br/>Making Rai more frustrated suddenly he heard a voice of concern, <br/><br/>"Master?" Alicia spoke with some concern since Rai suddenly got his face full of frustration.<br/>"Ahhh, don't worry i just remembered something. Don't be so worrisome" Rai replied calmly totally composing himself as not to lose his image infront of his students.<br/><br/>"Cough* so Harold come forward" Rai commanded.<br/>Harold hearing that came forward and stopped before Rai.<br/><br/>"Harold kneel and accept me as your teacher" Rai spoke.<br/>Harold made himself kneel on one leg as like knight posture and said,<br/>"I harold wish to study under the guidance of Master Rai " Harold requested.<br/><br/>"Good, from this day onwards you are my second discipline" Rai pulled him up and said while putting his hand on the shoulder of Harold.<br/><br/>"Here take this awakening stone, let's start your awakening ceremony" Rai handed the awakening stone to Harold and officially started the ceremony.<br/><br/>Harold held the stone in his hand and couldn't believe that he was going to be a beastmaster. <br/><br/>"Calm yourself down and close your eyes, sense the energy in stone. Guide the energy to your heart, resonate to the stone" Rai started giving instructions to Harold.<br/><br/>Harold began to do the same as he was told by Rai, slowly closing his eyes he began to feel the stone. Soon the stone emitted white glow and it started flowing towards the heart of Harold.<br/><br/>Harold forgot everything and was totally emersed in the awakening of his talent. <br/><br/>In a few minutes under the watchful eyes of Rai and Alicia, the stone was totally absorbed by Harold but he didn't open his eyes yet. His sister started to get a lil bit of worry but suddenly her head was patted by someone.<br/><br/>"Don't worry everything is fine. it's just a process, nothing is going to harm him " Rai consoled her, giving her that mild smile to keep her less worried.<br/><br/>Daisy nodded and looked at her brother who still had his eyes closed.<br/><br/>Very soon he opened his eyes, a glow was shown inside his eyes for a moment before vanishing like it was never there.<br/><br/>"Congratulations Harold, you are finally a Awakened one" Rai clapped and spoke.<br/>Harold came back to his senses and kneeled infront of Rai.<br/><br/>"What are you doing?" Rai was surprised at the sudden action of Harold.<br/>"Master I am really grateful, if not for you i wouldn't have this chance. I might be still in slums fighting for food" Harold spoked in grateful tone, his eyes were totally wet as of he was truly grateful to this act of Rai. <br/><br/>He knew that from today onwards his life has totally changed. He wouldn't have to fight for food not to be worried about his sister not getting to eat well. He felt like his master truly was a messiah for him.<br/><br/>"Don't worry about it. You are my student, and it's my responsibility to do better for you."Rai smiled at that grateful child, he truly felt he didn't misread Harold.<br/><br/>"Also tell your master what is your talent" Rai got curious about his talent, hearing what Rai had asked, Daisy and Alicia also got hooked into that curiosity.<br/>"Master my talent is--------"</p>
