The food decreased so fast that on end only a few bones were left. Kendra looked at the table and realized the devastating truth. If she doesn't control her appetite, she'll turn into a walking barrel.
Her eyes darted around and saw the people sitting there, looking just like that stuffed turkey they just ate. With protrusion at their belly, they looked like well-fed people. Luckily for them, they can't get indigestion.
She waved her hand and summoned hot water to wash the plates. She burned remains and was about to finish up, she remembered the cakes. They still stood onside table, but she chooses to just put them in space ring.
Meira was long enough in this world that she knew about space artifacts. So Kendra's use of ring didn't wonder her that much.
They rested a bit and talked about the people they will visit. Tassio still felt that it would be the best idea if they use the cloud and just scan the whole place at night. But Kendra was against it. If they didn't say anything to anybody, it would be fine to do so. But, now they have to do it officially.
On end, they came to an agreement to scan all that came and then on night one more time the whole town. After all, not all will be able to come. Some will work and some maybe grounded. Or because off some circumstances unable.
The Chief came to them in late afternoon and took them outside the city to the place where everyone waited. The Sun burned from up the sky and most of them seemed to have waited there for a while. Isaa sighed and looked at Kendra, that just make small random motion and clouds appeared giving them shade, as well the wind started blowing giving them some cooling.
The people sighed in relief as the wind blew their sweat and comforted their body. Marcus saw a small movement but knew that Kendra had powers so he didn't think too much if it. What Marcus didn't know is that Kendra infused the wind with some healing and purification energy so she helped people regain some energy lost, while they waited for them.
Isaa, on the other hand, felt the energy and with admiration stared at Kendra. "You seem to have made new spells. This one is great. To help them without them noticing it. My brother is the best."
Marcus and Meira looked at Kendra stunned while Tassio and Lais didn't seem to be. They already knew about Kendra's ideas so they just waited for her to tell them. She often tried many spells and they fail so she writes down only those that work. And those work only for the people that can use them.
"Dear citizens, today we have important Emissaries from the Caledon Valley. They came to check is there anyone in the city that had powers and will take them to the school to teach them how to use it properly. The families that have power user will be financially supported by the Lord of Caledon Valley until the school is done. After that, the users will be given tasks from the King to work for the country. So all the power users will have a bright future. But if we find out that someone is holding power user back without their wish, we will confiscate them and send them to live with other power kids in school peacefully."
Chiefs statement was like a big stone in a small pond. Being financially supported means they could live well without worry about tomorrow. Lais and Tassio took their Eyes and let them float and Marcus joined in. Kendra gave him one, as she didn't want them to know about her own and Isaa's powers.
Marcus joined Tassio and Lais with the Eye and Chief made three lines of people standing. One by one were scanned. The first euphoria started ebbing as people saw that not even one power user appeared so far. Kendra looked at the darkened faces of people and scoffed. Do they think that every family has one?
Meira stood up and rose her hands to calm down the clamoring crowd. "Quiet please." Her voice resounded even if it was not high. "The Emissaries were sent into the country because there were less and less power user births in this country. They are trying to find them and save their lives. Some choose to use their powers wrong and destroyed their sea of powers, some didn't know what to do with their powers at all and got hurt or killed. This is meant to prevent their extinction. "
Her words were understood by them all. They felt that such a thing is possible. For small children with powers the life seemed to be even harder. Especially if they lived in simple families. The power surges could be interpreted as some strange sickness. So some children died because there was no one to help them understand.
But from now on once a year all newborn children would be tested. Like that many power children could be saved. But that is a story for another time...
Kendra looked at the steady flow of people nearing the three Eyes. After they got scanned another person would appear and then another. In mid of line, she saw two boys and a girl looking almost the same. They had nervous expression as they looked from time to time at an ugly man that pushed them in front of him.
"This will be interesting. " She murmured. Isaa heard her words and followed her line of sight and saw the situation.
" Brother, those three seem to be strange. They kind of share the powers. We should test them together, not separated. " Isaa said, but Kendra shook her head.
"Even tho they are strong together, we need to test their own powers. Isaa, in future, there will be lots of people who will work as a group. Should we then test the group or each individual itself?"
Isaa thought about that. If their group, as it is, would fight together, it would be impossible to win against them. But fighting alone is another thing. If these children can fight only in group, their future will be bleak. Because that means they must cultivate together as well. She sighed.
Kendra patted her head. "They are tightly connected by the blood. So their group power could be great. That is the positive side. So you were not wrong. By the way, your powers rose last few weeks as well. I'm happy for you. But sweety, we still have things to do before leaving this world. So don't pressure yourself. You have me here. After I find more of those materials we can make a world of our own and in case of need, we can transfer all those we care about inside and take them with us. What do you think of that idea?"
Isaa looked at her and thought about Caledon Valley. If they could transfer the whole Valley into a new world, their parents wouldn't be in danger anymore from anyone. She embraced Kendra and nodded. Her heart is now easier and she could concentrate on stabilizing her sea of powers. She needs to do as Kendra told her. On end, she is just a little girl now. They still have time for many things. There is no need to rush.
They turned their attention again towards the group of people and soon the kids arrived in front of them. The boys had the girl between them, as they tightly held hands.
Tassio looked at them and with loud voice announced. "You will be tested separately. Please each step in front one if us and get tested."
"That is not fair. Let them get tested together. These three children were always like one. They were born at the same time. To separate them would harm them." The loud voice came from an unkempt man that stood behind the children.
Tassio scowled. "I do not care." With a wave of the hand, he separated the children and set them in front of the Eyes.
Suddenly the man turned around and started running away. Lais snorted and in a blink of the eye appeared in front of him. She looked at his petrified expression and smiled brightly.
''What kind of human parent are you, leaving the children alone? " She stared at him with a big smile but her expression didn't seem happy at all.
The children stared at the man and then at each other and smiled brightly. The boy bowed in front if Tassio. "I would like to thank you. We are not his children. Our poor mother got lost in the forest a long time ago and hit her head. Even day today she can't remember who she is. This man found her and took her home to work for him. She is practically a slave for him. But the strange thing is since we were born, whenever we are close together he had power over us. At that moment he could rule us to do whatever he says. Please help us."
The clamoring of people got loud. Most of the people came with their children, so for this case, they didn't have understanding. Tassio rose his hands to calm down the noise. "Please, people, calm down. Lord Cassian of Caledon Valley got permission from the King to take any power children and raise them. From now on these children are under the protection of our country. Chief, I am sure you didn't know about this so we will let you support the children if you want. Like that they will help you later in. Right?" Tassio turned to the boy and he nodded his head and the other two kids did same. They looked at each other and smiled happily.
They stepped forward and Eyes scanned them. The boy in from Tassio had earth power, the girl stood in from Marcus had the firepower and the boy in front Lais had water power.
Kendra already knew that their combination could be a deadly layer on. Their powers at the moment were at second boundary and it was steady. All three of them had a chance to go to the highest grade but by this speed, it will take them almost their whole life for that.
The higher the power, the longer you can live. But still, if they don't go past the boundary, their youth couldn't be preserved and they will go to another realm as old people.
Kendra thought about that. There is nothing wrong with that. Even as older people, if they break to another realm and meet someone strong enough, they could regain their youth.
But that is just at Kendra's assumption. Isaa went to the the girl and held her hand. "We met Lord Cassian. He is a kind person. You have powers so your mother can go with you and live comfortably. After that, the King will give you an assignment and you all can live comfortably together. Caledon Valley is not big, but its peaceful place. I am sure, you will like it."
The boys came again and smiled at Isaa and Kendra assuming that they are just common children. "Later on, when we become stronger, you can ask for our help if you wish. We will help you."
Kendra chuckled as she saw the look of the two boys as they stared at Isaa. 'Cian, you are in trouble. There will be strong competition for Isaa later on.'
She stared at the long line of people that became hopeful again. If there are already children with powers, maybe there are more.
Chief arrested the man and sent for the children's mother while Tassio, Lais and Marcus continued with the testings. But when she came, something strange happened...
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
