Chapter 21

"Should we wait for some more time for him to stabilize?"

"We can, but looking at him, I doubt there would be any difference. I can sense his body and mind have healed perfectly..."

"Then what should we do? We have already used an elixir, but if we don't dig out the source of this all then we could not prevent such events in the future?"

"Hmm. For now, tighten the security of the young master's courtyard. Order the guards to be vigilant at all times and not leave him alone even if he asks so. Dispatch a team of investigators to find clues, and one of you go and check the barrier to see if there's something wrong with it."

The elder paused, looking at the 2nd young master, he further added, "Explain what happened to him and see if there's any reaction."

With that, he left in a hurry, confusing the others.

After coming out of the room, he stroked his chin as he looked at the surroundings.

He wondered to himself in a somewhat serious manner.

'What's going on...? A healing elixir is something that can bring back a person from the brink of death, but why was he not able to remember what happened? How can an elixir be ineffective...'

The elder pondered for some time, he had a bad premonition about something, some days ago, the clan elites sensed a strange and ominous phenomena.

It was so disturbing that the respected clan guardian personally went to check on it which clearly meant that it was dangerous enough to be harmful to them...

But then a few minutes later, the strange phenomena suddenly vanished as if it never existed in the first place.

The clan guardian also did not say anything much on the topic and asked everyone to ignore it.

Many of the clan members were unsettled by this and wanted to investigate it further.

However, no one wanted to oppose the guardian.

After the clan head and their wife, the clan guardian held the highest authority.

She has been overseeing the clan since ancient times, she's powerful and has incomprehensible powers.

They did not doubt that she could not handle the strange phenomenon but for her to not discuss a word about it with any of them made the elites restless.

And now this happened with the 2nd young master, something that cannot even be healed with a healing elixir!

"This is making me feel stressed..."

He muttered, as he pondered his actions, now that someone from the clan was affected by something unknown, he can probably no longer obey the clan guardian.

"I would need to discuss it with others and do something, the clan guardian must not know about this otherwise it would be a direct challenge to her."

He had to do it, a power that can even defy the effects of elixir was not something one would see commonly... it was a sign of something big happening.

His eyes shone and with a flick of his finger, he disappeared from the courtyard.

A few weeks later

Oliver was in his courtyard lifting weights, not only that, in the back of his house, there were many equipment machines for physical exercise and strength training.

He had requested the clan to provide him with these, they were just ordinary gym equipment he could think of from his previous world.

This new world and his last world were quite similar in many things, this world was advanced in some aspects as well backward in other aspects compared to his last world.

He was holding the weights in one hand while in his other hand, he was carrying a notebook with some notes scribbled on its neat white pages.

"The power ranking system in this world is exactly as I remember it to be from the novel."

He flipped a page as he scanned through the contents.

"Exorcists are majorly categorized based on some crucial factors such as their espera level, combat skills, and purification techniques. Apart from that, there are factors like formal training and field experience that are given in specialized academies."

Oliver put the weights in his hand down as he read further.

"Exorcists could also be broadly classified into 3 categories, first are those who rely on their espera, second are the ones who rely on their physical powers, and third are the ones who rely on artifacts and tools."

He closed the notebook as he changed his clothes.

"For now, I need to quickly rise through the ranks..."

The exorcists are ranked into 7 levels.

Rank 1 to Rank 7

Rank 1 being considered the newcomers to the exorcist world, just beginning their training and having a basic amount of knowledge about spiritual combat and purification techniques.

These exorcists have no particular exorcism style and typically work under the high-ranking exorcists.

Rank 2 being the next step as they solidify their foundations on purification techniques and combat styles, they usually undergo rigorous training and this stage has always been considered tough for beginners. They can handle minor demons.

Rank 3 exorcists are one step ahead, able to operate independently without the supervision of a high-ranking exorcist and handle low to mid-level demons.

Rank 4 exorcists are even more advanced, capable of dealing with high-ranking demons.

Rank 5 level exorcists are in charge of leading other exorcists in wars, missions, and dealing with catastrophic demons.

The later level exorcists are legendary beings.

It was rumored that the clan heads of the 5 clans belong to these stages... of course, it's unknown how these levels operate and how many of such exorcists exist.

Creak!

"Zippy, I am going out to the market... I will bring you some meat."

"Meow!"

Oliver announced and left the courtyard, he had some things he wanted to purchase from the clan's market.

His goal was quite simple.

It was to use his special eyes to cheat through the market; in the novels he used to read, he was always fascinated by the protagonists who had special abilities to distinguish treasures among trash.

Now that he had such means himself, there was no way he was going to be passing on such an opportunity.

It was a great opportunity to collect some rare artifact to further ensure his future and if possible, look for something to fasten Nadia's growth as well.
