The world of awakened abilities was proving to be incredibly diverse, and Leon's excitement grew as he considered the numerous paths that lay before him.
He had spent 20 years as a courier, and during that time, he had gathered a wealth of information about the awakened world. Rumors and tales about awakened abilities, classes, and subclasses were part of his everyday life, whether they're meant to discredit or praise. Before, it was just useless information, but now, it's a treasure trove.
Guilds were eager to secure young talents with higher class ranks, believing they had the potential for greatness. However, some low-rank classes possessed higher-leveled skills, and some classes even had skills from other class. These anomalies were called irregulars." Irregulars were a hit-or-miss in terms of their future development, adding an element of unpredictability to the awakened world.
Curiosity about his own class and subclass began to pique Leon's interest. He wondered "what will my class be, or my subclass. Well, it's something to look forward to, I guess."
Leon then moved on to the next part of his status.
SKILLS
Orius: Level 1
Mana Clone: Level 1
Draconix Heart: Level 1
"Oh man, I was out exercising, and I didn't even check my skills yet. I need to get used to them before everything starts. But the problem is, how can I restore my mana points? Health could be restored through conventional means like visiting a doctor, and stamina could be regained through rest, mana posed a unique challenge... Without access to portals or mana-restoring potions, I can't recover my mana. Isn't this a dilemma?
My mana pool stood at 220 points, with Orius costing 20 MP and Mana Clone requiring 40 MP for just one clone. To test both skills, I'll need 60 MP, leaving me with 160 MP. Let's put off training with the skills for now. I need to save as much mana as possible, as when the cataclysm starts, it will be disadvantageous if I don't have enough."
Satisfied with this line of thought for now, Leon had gone through his status screen more thoroughly than usual. While some aspects were speculations and guesses, he was content. The only way to confirm everything was to wait for the cataclysm to start. For now, he was prepared and ready to do everything he could to get ready for the first cataclysm.
After finishing his shower, a knock on the door indicated his father's guest. Leon overheard his father, Alexander, conversing with Jork.
Alexander: "Hey Jork, you're a bit early. I thought you'd be here by midday."
Jork: "Yes, sir, but there was an earlier flight available, so I took it. How are you doing today, sir?"
Alexander: "Great, really. But come in. Like I mentioned to you, Leon had some ideas that he wants to venture into the business world of the company, and you should guide him well, okay?"
Jork: "Yes, sir. But if I may, Sir Leon is just a young lad. What would he know of the business world?"
Alexander: "That's what I thought at first, but his presentation was good. In fact, it was so good I thought it was done by a veteran. He has a promising future, and as my future heir to the company, it made me happy that he is already this well-versed in the business world. Seems he takes after me. Hahahah, that sneaky lad. I wonder when he became this mature."
Jork: "Seems you have high hopes for him. So, I have done what you have asked. I have established a separate business account for Leon, and I have also funded it with the £1 million initial investment from you, as you told me. The bank I chose for him was Lloyd's Bank. I believe this should be a great start."
Alexander: "Efficient as always, Jork. That's why you're my right-hand man, apart from being my P.A. Great. Also, keep an eye on Leon and make sure to report back to me and keep me in the loop."
Jork: "You praise me too highly, sir. I am just doing my job, and certainly, I will always keep you in the loop."
Alexander: "Good. I'll go get Leon so you both can get acquainted, and he can discuss the next part of his business plan with you."
Jork: "Yes, sir."
Leon could hear the conversation between Alexander and Jork clearly, thanks to his enhanced senses. His father Alexander made his way upstairs and towards Leon's room. He then knocked on Leon's door, which Leon opened.
Alexander: "Oh good, you're already up. Come downstairs, Jork is here, kiddo. I want you both to get acquainted."
Leon: "Yes, Dad."
With that, Alexander went back downstairs, and Leon closed his room to get ready. Leon marveled at his newfound heightened senses, realizing that he could hear conversations and even heartbeats from a distance if he focused on it. His enhanced hearing was a result of the night's training. He hurriedly put on clothes—a black hoodie, cargo pants, and white trainers—as his father had asked him downstairs to meet Jork, who would help him delve further into his business plans. With that, Leon descended downstairs to meet Jork.
