God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains

"Miss Archbishop, I\'ve brought someone who isn\'t blinded by the goddess\' divinity. His thoughts are independent and at a first glance, it looks like he fits the criteria." the priest said as he saw Keith close the door behind him.

"Grandpa, just call me like you usually do... I don\'t like this. Big brother, you don\'t mind it do you? After all, grandpa says that you aren\'t blinded by divinity." she said as she looked up at Keith with her yellow eyes.

They were mesmerising, but Keith didn\'t focus too much on them and nodded, "I don\'t have any problems."

The priest chuckled as he walked over to her and patted her head, "Well then Maria, what do you think about him?"

Maria smiled cutely before looked at Keith and then instantly nodded, "Mother Seraphina gives her approval. Hmm.... yep, he should become an inquisitor of our church. That fits him the best based on mother\'s words."

"But his awakened ability is not offensive, is it? Danger perception will mostly help him with evading danger." the priest said as he frowned.

"Mother asks you to trust her, grandpa."

"The goddess\' wish is my command." he said before going silent.

Keith on the other hand watched everything and knew even more as Maria was an extremely important character who would become the High Priestess of the Protection Church two years after the war ends.

\'The ability to talk to a goddess directly.... she\'s not the daughter but an apostle of Seraphina and based on her words just now... it looks like Seraphina knows about my powers. It\'s either that, or she\'s expecting me to go through a second awakening.

I need more information to come to a solid conclusion.\' he though inwardly before asking Maria a question, "If I get promoted to an Inquisitor, I\'ll have to leave my team right?"

"Yep!" Maria exclaimed as she pointed her finger at him, "But if you want, I\'ll let you pick someone to become an inquisitor with you. And... if you help me out with a few things, I\'ll help you with a second awakening. Both you and your partner will receive it."

"Wow... a promise from the archbishop herself. There\'s no way I\'ll decline that offer, but what do you want me to do in return?"

Maria smiled, her eyes carrying a hint of determination, "I\'ll tell you if our church gets the first or second place during this training program. All the churches will compete against each others by comparing the results of their people and I want to see us at the top.

We\'ve been stuck at the third place for decades if not centuries and I just want that to change for once."

Keith nodded, "I\'ll do what I can."

A second awakening was a phenomenon that only occurred when certain conditions were met and these conditions were extremely strict and different for every person. But there was an exception to this, and that was the involvement of a god\'s blessing.

The second awakening would either enhance this ability by a huge margin or give them an extra branched out ability that had connection to the first one.

For example, if a person\'s awakened ability was creating threads, then their second awakening could potentially give them the power to create thousands of threads at the same time while also super enhancing the strength and durability of each thread.

As for a branched out extra ability, they could potentially be able to transform into a beast with a lot of fur and gain access to use this fur as an extension of their powers. This way, they would gain a boost to their speed, strength and other senses while also being able to use their fur to attack, defend, trap, etc.

This kind of person would be way stronger than someone who could transform into the same animal but without the ability to control their fur, they\'d just lose in the condition that both of them had similar experience or mastery over their powers.

And for Keith, this was extremely valuable as he expected it to boost his already over powered ability to another level. On top of that, he had the option to awaken someone else from his team too.

\'Clara... nah, using such an opportunity on her is a waste. She\'ll just go marry some random guy and settle with him, wasting the entire second awakening. Edward is a bit too old at the moment so it\'s better to not go with him. Brandon has potential but we\'re not exactly close so there\'s that.\'

One by one, he eliminated them until he reached Amelia.

\'She\'s chill but I\'ll have to spend some more time with her before coming to a conclusion. If things go well, I can get her to awaken a second time before giving her a system to copy her upgraded ability.

There\'s also the fact that her ability falls under the mystic category just like Clara and never once has the second awakening of any mystic ability disappoint in the novel as every single one of them turned out to be extremely broken in one way or the other.\'

He slowly made his plans and decided to talk to her and observe her for the two months time period that the training program would take.

While he was thinking, Maria hurriedly grabbed a book from the study table and wrote something on the last page before tearing the page.

"Mother told me to show this to you." she said as she handed it over for Keith to read.

Found you, my one and only Fwyd Chicken!
