BXBX NOVEL Chapter 108: Becoming a Leader?
But she doesn\'t feel good when they interrupt her last day of vacation together with her little brother.
\'I hope those fools will leave as soon as they can after whatever her little brother wants them to do.\'
\'Well, I don\'t feel much if they don\'t interrupt us for long, knowing my brother is already much closer than anyone can think.\'
As she foolishly started to giggle to herself, without caring about anything, thinking how far they had come.
"Hehehehehehe."
Aiden heard his big sis giggling foolishly to herself, but he chose to ignore her for now.
After a few seconds, he could see ten female officers in tight-fitted black outfits coming toward him in a steady manner in two rows of five, walking in rhythm, which looked quite pleasing to see.
None of them were wearing any masks as he had instructed them earlier at night using the specific radio frequency that his Aunt had told him to use.
\'Hmm, they look quite professional.\'
He was pleased by their discipline, and this was the first time he would meet them all at the same time, other than the incident when he met the two twins at the school.
\'I might have seen them earlier, but I don\'t remember much as I didn\'t focus on them.\'
"Elite Squad reporting to duty."
They reached in front of him and saluted him loudly in unison, which intimidated Aiden a little as he was not prepared for this at all.
But he still kept his calm composure on the outside to maintain his stature, as he couldn\'t act nervous when he had become the leader of this group of people, and he would be the one taking responsibility for them.
But for Alicia, she jumped in surprise seeing their spirit, and the image of these guards improved a little in her mind, as previously seeing the black-haired woman, who was quite beautiful, fawning so openly over her Aiden, she had made the assumption that all of them were almost like the shameless one she had seen earlier.
After seeing them standing in front of him waiting for orders he had instructed them to refer to him as the leader and not to salute him every time they met.
He also noticed that the twins from earlier were the ones standing at the forefront of the two rows.
He got the reply to his commands from one of the twins, and he could see one of them was keeping her head down, not looking at him, while the other one was looking at him with a neutral expression on her face.
\'These twins are quite beautiful.\'
He had noticed this at the school; however, seeing them standing next to each other, they looked even more beautiful.
\'Now, this is the hard part. I have to see if any one of them is a threat to me, as the system told me earlier that there is only a 50% chance of humans awakening talent.\'
\'And a 40% chance they would turn into undead and lose their sanity, and the remaining 10% will not awaken their talent at the time of Evolution but will awaken it later by some catalyst, which could be anything small or big.\'
\'I hate to do this, but I know my Aunt would understand when I explain to her that it was done for their own safety.\'
So, he told them to stand in front of him in a column so he could look at every one of them at the same time.
[World Evolution starts in 13 minutes 59 seconds.]
By using his King\'s Eye\'s ability for so long, he could use it three times without feeling any pain, and if he pushed himself a little, he could check five times.
And after 10 minutes of rest, he could check again, so he wasn\'t worried about the time.
\'I am ashamed of myself for forgetting about checking their talents earlier.\'
\'I forgot about this as my big sis wouldn\'t let me think about anything the entire day, teasing me every chance she got with her sexy body, and I only remembered this early morning when there were only 15 minutes left for the evolution.\'
\'But why does this evolution have to be so early in the morning? I couldn\'t even imagine how many unlucky fellows would have been asleep, according to me.\'
Because it was only a little after 6 AM right now.
He didn\'t know much about Evolution other than what the system had told him in a cryptic way, because he had found a loophole that the system would help if he asked in the right way and understood his intentions.
But for Aiden, if he knew that if he just ordered the system in a commanding tone, he wouldn\'t have wasted time thinking about how to get the hint he wanted, he would probably curse himself.
\'It was easy to know how many people would Awaken or not by throwing every single number from 1 to 100 at the system and focusing on the tone of its voice.\'
And he was pleased to know that the system didn\'t act like certain goddesses and enthusiastically replied to every little question he asked.
But when he asked what was going to happen when the world evolved, the system replied in a fearful voice, saying that if it tried to answer this even in a cryptic way, it would bring him more harm than he could imagine.
It even told him that even the information it had given him before the evolution about the undead and percentages had weakened its soul a little, but it wouldn\'t affect it much as it didn\'t have a physical body and could easily do the task even with a weakened soul, and it would heal itself when mana became common in his world.
Aiden felt a little touched by this, seeing how the soul connected to the system helped him to such an extent.
But after knowing that, he hadn\'t asked anything more, as it had told him that the restrictions would be unaffected after the evolution, and he didn\'t want something unexpected to happen, as he could tell there was something even the system feared, and he didn\'t want to provoke whatever it was.
Now, he focused on the task ahead, as there was not much time left before the evolution, and he felt glad that he could check everyone\'s talent, even if he had to feel some pain.
\'Because I don\'t want to abandon someone whose talent could be useful to me in the future, and more importantly, it would hurt my conscience knowing I left them without knowing if they were harmful to me or not.\'
\'If any one of them turned into undead in the future, I wouldn\'t feel a thing leaving them behind.\'
And it was easy for him to know if someone would turn into undead or not, as their status would show question marks in the talent section.
At first, he thought it must be some good talent, but after seeing so many people who had the same thing in their status, he was sure it wasn\'t a good thing.
After finding out they would turn into undead after the World Evolution, affected by mana, Aiden only felt a little pity for them.
