God's Apostle: Rebirth of a Lazy Genius

Ten days, it had been ten days since the cocoon formed over Ethan's body. Although Anicia had come to perform the ritual, no one knew why it was taking so much time in the first place.

No one knew what was happening inside the cocoon with Ethan's body and how much longer it was going to last. Ten days had already far crossed the limit—this was a historical event.

However, whatever was happening was good for Ethan in reality as his body was being modified on a molecular level to further suit his potential.

The Temple of The Apostle that was created from the blessings and powers of all Gods was forever etched in his soul from the moment he died on earth.

And as a side effect, he naturally and subconsciously gained a monstrous level of affinity with all the Ancestral Elements and Blessings triggering an Early Awakening.

Throughout the history of Akarxia, scholars from all over the world conducted research on this phenomenon and deducted that one's body was a Vessel meant to hold Ancient Prowess and Blessings, people had various levels of cognition towards their Ancestral and Current Blessings which decided when their Ancestral Awakening would trigger.

To understand this more easily—scholars called it 'The Clay Pot Thesis'.

In this concept, they referred to the body as the 'Clay Pot' and the blessings as 'The Water'. They further deduced that when a child is born; the 'Pot' is raw and could break easily if 'The Water' inside it suddenly becomes active.

fortunately tho, Mother Nature had set in motion the 'cocoon' to strengthen the 'Clay Pot' just before 'The Water' becomes active.

But not all Pots were made from excellent high-quality Clay, and when the expected Water inside it turned out to be much denser and trivalent than usual—the cocoon took more time to modify 'The Clay' from which 'The Pot' was made from so that 'The Clay' would hold 'The Pot' together despite the unexpected turbulent dense Water.

Ethan was in the same situation. Because of The Temple, he had much more dense and turbulent water inside his pot than others and that's why it was taking far more time to modify his 'Clay Pot'.

However, this was where the danger lay. Imagine modifying an already formed and well-solidified raw Pot to its core on a molecular level to hold much denser and more turbulent Water inside it when it's not meant to do so.

The Pot might just break during the process. And in truth, it had happened many times with a lot of youngsters. Even though Anicia was doing her best—no one knew when the cocoon finally hatches exactly what they would find out.

Outside Ethan's room, Albert The Butler had been keeping guard day and night ever since Anicia went inside. He was old but ever after three days, he didn't look tired at all.

Inside the room, the golden cocoon suddenly pulsated rapidly. Little Anicia tiredly opened her eyes which were sunken deep into her sockets. Her face was deathly pale, she looked a lot thinner as she had lost weight during the ritual. She looked like she would be blown away with just a strong breeze.

Anicia was in such a condition because for three days straight she had been sharing her life energy with Ethan day and night without any rest.

The cocoon suddenly flickered and disappeared into thin air leaving behind sparkling golden particles revealing Ethan's body.

Anicia drew back her hand and the two runic circles below both of them flickered and disappeared as well.

She sighed with relief and her eyes slowly closed as she could sense that Ethan was alive. Anicia was so exhausted that she stumbled wobblingly onto the bed and fell onto Ethan's chest unconscious.

Soon her ragged breath became normal as it tickled Ethan's chest. Anicia slept peacefully sweat dripping down her face—she cuddled laying her head on Ethan's chest and unconsciously using him as a pillow.

Ethan's pupils moved rapidly inside his closed eyelids, his brows knitted, his toes shook and suddenly he opened his eyes and jolted awake.

The first thing that he saw after waking up feeling as if he had been slumbering for years was a blond girl cuddling to his chest cutely.

"Who... Are you?.... Oh! You must be the one." Ethan mumbled, he was confused at first as Anicia wasn't someone he had ever seen but then he realized the possibility that the 'outside help' that he had thought of could have been her.

Ethan strangely felt drowsy and yet the most energetic he had ever been at the same time. He stretched his arms and the sound of bones crunching was heard. Ethan carefully got up not disturbing Anicia's sleep in the slightest.

He did not know how much time had passed nor did he know what had happened and how Anicia saved him. But he could see that the girl was exhausted, he was grateful to her for whatever she had done.

He gently held Anicia and properly moved her off of him onto the bed, he then covered her with the blanket like a proper gentleman after tipping the sweat off her face and sighed as he looked at her kind, cute face with a complex expression, "I don't like to owe any depts. This is the first and last time." He said and made up his messy hair.

Albert who was outside the door flinched in surprise when he felt the door open from the inside. He turned back and his eyes widened.

"Well, good morning uncle Albert," Ethan said with a straight face, his lips curled upwards slightly, his tone calm as he opened the door.

"Y-young... Master?" Albert was thoroughly caught off-guard seeing living breathing Ethan suddenly open up the door on him and greet the good morning as if it was just another day.

Ethan's whole demeanor had changed. Previously he came off as dull, lazy, and wobbly but now that Albert saw him—he looked steady as a mountain, calm as the moon, sharp as a razor, and lively as the chirping birds outside.

Even a blind fool could tell that there was a significant change in Ethan after he woke up.

"Young Master! You woke up! How wonderful! I will go inform everyone right now, please stay here and don't leave." Albert cried out as he recovered from the initial shock and confusion. You could tell by his enthusiasm that he was truly happy seeing Ethan alive and well

Ethan smiled gently and nodded, and Albert flinched a bit once again—Ethan was suddenly acting very differently.

Albert did not waste more time and left immediately as he shouted, "Young Master is Awake!" along the way everywhere he went.

Soon the news spread out throughout the entire mansion as a huge commotion that was full of cheers, smiles and happiness broke out.

Ethan went back inside and leisurely sat on the sofa chair in the living room. His right hand was on the armrest and his left hand was placed below his chin in a thoughtful position as if he was contemplating something.

While little Anicia was further inside the room peacefully sleeping on the bed with a mix of warm, relieved, anxious, and happy expressions on her face.
