Amon, The Legendary Overlord
chapter-154

The auction went smoother than anyone could have imagined. The way it was done, from the start, to finish there were no problems. Even auction houses with a lot fewer people participating would have had some friction... Of course, this has to take into account that they were just rookies who had just entered university and had teachers and elders present.

After returning to the place intended for UGRG, the first thing that Amon, Ariel, Barbara, Julia, Maisa and most of the other students did was to shower. Some chose to eat first, as not everyone had had the chance to eat with so many monsters coming from all directions...

It had been a few minutes since they went out with the elders from some of the different universities. Amon and the girls were with the students who were also going to the alliance library. Unlike before, instead of taking the spaceship, they went to the portal and entered the tower.

"We'll go straight to the library for you to choose your spells," Elder William said as he looked at them, "Be very serious in choosing; it can totally change your life as you become Innate. If one makes a bad choice, it can reflect negatively on their advancements."

"Understood!" They all nodded.

Of course, they would think seriously. Some did the same as Amon and the rest of his party and were talking to their elders, asking for guidance to choose the best spell for them to link with their genetic factor.

As they all continued walking, Maisa said, "I know it's too late to say this, but... Did you notice that only our university brought in many students with water-related genetics?"

"Yes." This was something the rest of their group also noticed.

Xena, who was closest to them, laughed and said, "Of course yours is different. The only university of the four that each year chooses as a student attribute is yours. Both ours and others are selected differently."

She continued to explain, "Take Heavenly World University for example: Each rookie participates in a tournament between genetic classes. The class that wins, be it fire, water, earth, etc, will participate in the tournament, and only a few who were among the best of their attributes have the chance to participate as well if they are lacking in numbers."

"Ohh, so it's like that." Maisa nodded in understanding. In their case, it was so simple, they didn't even think it would be so rewarding.

"Thanks for sharing this with us. You're so cute~" Ariel blew Xena a kiss.

"C-Cute?!" Xena blushed a little, as she wasn't expecting that kind of reaction. She only managed to control herself seconds later and pretended to cough. "*Cough* You're welcome..."

"Hahaha!" Barbara laughed at Xena's reaction as she placed both hands behind her head. The way she walked and acted made her look easygoing with her delinquent temperament. Coupled with her lazy, pleasant demeanor, she exuded a strange charm. Though not as wild as Barbara, Maisa and Julia laughed too.

As they all talked and laughed amongst themselves, they arrived in front of the glorious alliance library building. Needless to say, security was strong, and even though they were a little far away, the pressure they felt from the guards made them feel a little scared. Perhaps the most relaxed of the group of students were Amon and Ariel, who had peculiar little smiles.

"Wait here, please." Seeing that the students stopped, the teachers called for them. It was no exaggeration to say that the place exceeded everyone's expectations. Even if they saw a castle it wouldn't surprise them so much. When they entered, they were astonished at the size on the inside which seemed larger than on the outside, if that's even possible...

"Little William, little Hazael," an elderly man said in an ancient voice with a hint of kindness, "I perceive that the time of year has come when new students participate in the tournament?"

Ahead of them, an elderly man behind the counter said something that made Amon look at the elderly man seriously. To be able to call Old Hazael, who was possibly an Overlord, or was very close to it, by 'Little Hazael', one can imagine that either he was very old and had seen when Old Hazael was small, or he was even more powerful than Old Hazael, perhaps both. Of course, just because he tended the alliance library didn't make him weak; it was possibly because he was strong that he was there.

"Yes, Old Dicesar, this time it's my students who won first place, hahaha!" Old Hazael laughed as he spoke in good humor. He pulled Amon with the girls before him.

The man called Old Dicesar assessed the fives and nodded. His eyes conveyed wisdom. When Amon and the girls felt his gaze, they felt as if he could see right through them. It was somehow frightening. It was the kind of situation where even though someone didn't owe anything, just being stopped by the police made people feel nervous and wonder if something went wrong.

Of course, they were overthinking it, as Old Dicesar had just analyzed them and disseminated that they were talented youngsters, as he was able to see through their power. Although it was just that, he didn't look closely to the point where he was able to know that Amon had a special dual gene attribute that could advance at the same time.

"As victors, Amon's team will be the first to be served," Old Dicesar said, "Come closer, children."

Seeing him give the signal to them, Amon and the girls approached. The moment they arrived in front of Old Dicesar, he handed each of them a silver card and said as he pointed to a round table with laptops on the table, "Each of you can use one of these laptops. In the lower right corner, you will be able to insert the card I just gave you. Each card has a level 1 permission and each of you five can choose two spells. The way to search is very simple: just choose the attribute or even search for a specific characteristic you want the spell to have.

"In case you still have doubts, here is a sheet with all the necessary information, but I believe that you young people can adapt quickly to this and it will be easy to choose what's best for you."

With a kind smile, he added, "I advise you to ask your teachers for advice before choosing your spells. This choice is going to be one of the most important choices of your lives. The spell you choose to blend into your genes is not something you can just change later."

After saying that, he waved his hand with a smile. "Okay, I've said everything you need to know. Go ahead, and good luck."

"Thanks." Amon and the girls thanked him and then left for the round table.
