Master Of None

Chapter 1230 – 1230. Interesting Awakening

As excited as Midnight was to try and battle with Alice and Onyx, she had seen something a little more interesting outside of the cathedral. Not every child would want to go inside to sit through a concert. It was just how they were, easily bored and full of energy. This was exactly why there was a group of them that had found the side yard of the cathedral to play in. But what caught Midnight's attention was that some were playing with sticks like swords and pretending to use magic. She couldn't resist the urge to join in and give them a little challenge. 

Midnight was not some mystery to the people and children of Genesis Whenever she and Onyx were in the cathedral they would help out with the children. It only made sense that their fame would grow. That meant that the second Midnight stepped in to view their eyes widened and they became more excited than before. 

"Loooookk!!! There's a real dragon here!"

"Her name is Midnight! You need to remember it. She the only dragon in all of the Genesisisis." The exclamations continued but Midnight didn't spend much time paying attention to them. She jumped forward and snapped up one of the sticks from a boy who had just been 

"Defeated". The reaction was again, instant. 

"The sword fighting dragon against me, the white night of magic?" 

"No, I, the spearwoman of flames will win!"

"Ha! You two can't beat me, I am the uhhh, the magic wind dancer!" 

The three children yelled their desired systems and pretended to use some skills here and there while Midnight had recruited the fallen child to join her. She tried her best to slash with the stick like a sword to the joy of the children but seemed to be pretty bad at it compared to what she had seen Walker do. 

"My fellow dragon swordsmen and I will use double dragon slash!!!!" The boy with Midnight picked up another stick and ran with Midnight at his side. However, he stopped halfway and nearly fell on the ground while looking in to space. All of them stopped wondering what had happened and if he had hurt himself. What was odd though was the fact that he had not cried or said anything in pain. 

"What's a sword saint?" His small words were barely heard by the other children, however, this was something Midnight had heard before. She knew exactly what a sword saint was and had already grasped what was happening. 

In the blink of an eye, Midnight had grabbed the back of his shirt and hefted him on to her back. The other children were less confused and more excited so they ran right behind her as they went in to the cathedral. Her speed was just enough to be faster than the children could run. All the while, the boy on her back was totally lost in confusion. Yet, he was growing more and more energetic. A smile bloomed on his face as he realized what he had unlocked and that he had finally received his system. 

She found a group of parents that were chatting and smelled the same as the boy on her back in a split second. They completely dropped their conversation and looked at her in worry. "What's wrong? Why the rush? Why is-"

"Moooommmm I have a system!!!!!!" The boy screamed over everything his mother was trying to say. It was loud enough to draw attention from everyone around them. It also brought the attention of Su towards them since she had been talking with her string playing friend near the other healing musicians. 

"Midnight, don't tell me you are causing trouble?" Su knew this wasn't the case but seeing Midnight huff and shake her head quickly was a little funny. 

"What system? Slow down! Tell us what happened." The mother used the only voice that was sure to make any child stop in their tracks. The mom voice everyone feared regardless of their background. 

"Sword saint! Sword saint! Sword saint!" The boy started to run around shouting it constantly. 

"So that's why you burst in here. That's a pretty rare system. Good find Midnight." The praise made Midnight raise her head while the other children started to rambunctiously explain what they were doing and that they were pretending to play with swords. The simple act of using different sticks as swords had been enough to cause the one boy to awaken his system and cause the entire scene now. 

"If you need, I can see if any sword masters or other sword based system users are around the city. We have a few demi-human sword specialists around right now because they are in the coliseum working under General Scylla. Just bring him to the Genesis building and we can figure things out." Su made sure to say this to the mother who was a little shocked. Her song was definitely not mature enough to have a sword yet he had such a system. She was thankful and quickly pulled him toward his father on the other side of the cathedral speaking to another group of people. 

The soft huff from Midnight was sad since the game she had started and ended so fast, but this was just the way things were. "Come on, I know you can share the story later and surprise everyone. A sword saint is only born once in a generation at most. You met one before they were famous across the world. Plus, we can go and train with Alice and Onyx for a little bit." This managed to get Midnight moving again. She had been pretty interested in the new growth of Onyx and Alice. She wanted to test her skills against them since they had already bragged about their improvements a little. Not to mention she wanted to see how her little brother had improved since he wanted to lead the party on an adventure.
