Blessed by Night

Chapter 13: Guild Masters

Upon entering the testing facility, Malachi was given a pair of simple sweats to change into and led to a room with ten other examinees inside.

While he didn't think much of them, most immediately hated him.

What kind of guy is so concerned with looking cool that he won't even take his sunglasses off inside?!

And for an aptitude placement no less!

They slowly came to the conclusion that this guy wouldn't amount to much if all he was concerned about were his looks.

With his extremely handsome face he must've been blessed by a god of beauty and let it go to his head.

"Alright examinees! First up is the four pillars!" The overseer for the assessment was a gray haired old man with a tall stature and a muscular build.

The four pillars as they are most commonly referred are the four basic powers that are bestowed to all blessed without exception.

Enhanced speed, strength, durability and telekinesis.

"Examinee 0531! You're up first."

At the examiners beckoning, a young man with pale white skin and purple streaks in his hair stepped forward.

The examiner pressed a button on his wristwatch and suddenly the group was in an incredibly spacious room the size of a football field.

"You know the drill. Let's hurry up and do this."

Without waiting for another word, the young man stretched his body before he dashed forward.

There was a gust of wind followed by a sonic boom before the white haired young man reappeared in his original position.

"(Whistles.) 4.26, not bad kid. That's A rank level speed. "

The man only gave an uninterested nod before continuing.

The next segment of the test was strength based and the examinee was required to toss a car over a measured distance.

The frail looking young man was able to toss a car over 40 yards earning him a C rank level strength assessment.

The next to be assessed was an attractive young woman with caramel colored skin and a muscular yet curvaceous physique.

She had long ash blond hair and fiery golden eyes that hadn't left Malachi since she first saw him.

Malachi of course noticed her hungry looks but did nothing about it.

Even if he found her attractive, he felt like he had other things to prioritize in his life at the moment.

"Funny seeing you two here." Alex smiled at the two guild masters currently present.

Luna elected not to speak and Morgan simply rolled his eyes.

"What's with the chilly reception? I don't believe there's any bad blood between us."

"Then your memory is shorter than my patience." Luna growled.

"Filthy Greek." Morgan spat.

This man was guild leader of the number one guild in the world and was responsible for poaching several of the blessed that Luna and Morgan were attempting to sign.

It wasn't an exaggeration to say he was the most powerful man in the country.

Subconsciously, Luna began to worry.

She wasn't sure that Malachi wouldn't be swayed by the amount of money and resources this man could offer.

If he was truly as valuable as Aisha had said, she absolutely could not afford to lose him.

Aisha seemingly sensed her worried and patted her reassuringly. "He is not a disloyal person so you don't need to worry."

Luna only smiled bitterly.

Since when was she so easy to read?

She calmed down tremendously and turned her focus back towards the monitor.

'Is that all? I'm actually a bit disappointed.' Alex clicked his teeth in mild annoyance.

He was hoping he'd rile Luna up enough to start a fight in front of all these people and frame her as the aggressor.

After she'd rejected him, he'd do anything to make her look bad and send her guild plummeting downwards.

"Ah, it's brother's turn!" Aubrey suddenly exclaimed.

She subconsciously squeezed Aisha's hand and the girl promptly returned it.

Seeing that Luna was watching the monitor with new intensity, Alex grinned in satisfaction. 'So this is who you're waiting for.'

When Alex saw the extremely handsome man with sunglasses on during the assessment, he immediately frowned.

While he couldn't believe that the recruit was a man there was another fact that bothered him.

He'd seen a lot of new blessed like this who were so absorbed in their looks and new image that they did not realize the severity of the world they were now in.

Typically, such people did not live long.

He almost did not want to spend the money just to teach Luna a lesson.

'Oh well… money can always be earned back.'
