Dean's office,

Knock!, knock! knock!

"Come in", the dean spoke out loud.

'Click',

The door opened, giving way to the person standing in front of the door.

"Come in old friend or should I say, Mr. Abraham. You sure have a kink for changing names every year", the dean said after looking at the man standing at the door.

"Just let me live my life Prometheus, you know I can't use my real identity. If those bastards found out that I am still alive. They will hunt me down to the depths of hell to take that item", Mr. Abraham replied to the dean.

"Well, at least tell me why you came here, and don't you dare bullshit about coming here to have a chat with an old friend. You only do that when you want to empty my vine cellar and I won't let you do so this time", The dean spoke in rage as he still felt the pain when his whole vine cellar was cleaned swiftly by the man in front of him.

To the dean's delight, the man shook his head in denial and said,

"Today's not the day for that. I came here for another matter, I found a promising seedling",

"Oh! Nice, nice, who did you find", the dean asked while his face glowed at the mention of his wine cellar being left alone.

"Who did I find you ask? Well, let me tell you the whole story. Right from the beginning. You might want to stop what you are doing lest you miss the main part",

"Okay, I am all ears. You can continue with your story, but don't take too much of my time. I have other things to attend to", The dean spoke. His voice clearly expressed his displeasure for having to listen to the long part of the story.

But still, the dean listened to the story. As even he wanted to know who made this old coot agitated enough to take them as a good seedling.

"So where do I start from?", the man scratched his chin in thought.

"Just start it already, Abraham. I don't have the whole day for you", the dean shouted. This man's antics made him want to shove a punch in his throat.

"Okay, let's start from there. Yeah, that's the best one",

"The thing is, As you know. Today was the first day of classes for the freshmen. So as usual, I took the class and made them do some laborious cardio before moving on to that martial technique. What was it again?", the man pondered while he scratched his head,

Annoyed, the dean spoke,

"The talent awakening technique. Now just finish it up fast. I have a lot of work to do",

"Yeah, that technique. Okay, let's move forward. So there is this one kid, following all of the movements perfectly and imitating the technique with utmost concentration, and you know what the best part is?, that kid even formed a resonance with his elemental Qi",

Listening to all this, the dean got interested as anyone who could imitate that hellish technique perfectly and even form a resonance with their elemental Qi were geniuses rare enough for nations to fight for.

Therefore, the dean asked,

"So who is this genius who resonated with his elemental Qi, and what is the innate element he awakened?",

To this, the man replied with a laugh,

"Just look at you, so excited over just that. Now listen more, I am sure you will faint from excitement. After that kid resonated with his elemental Qi, he directed it to his body mildly before increasing the intensity until his body couldn't handle it",

The man paused a bit to take in the dean's expression and surely. The dean was sitting on the edge of his chair while his eyes shimmered like stars.

"And then what?", the dean asked expectantly.

"What do you mean then what, the kid released the energy and then fainted",

"What did you say? The kid fainted? And who the hell told you to allow him to release that much energy? Abraham, I am going to kill you",

The dean said in rage as he knew that for a first-timer to release massive amounts of elemental Qi by using their body as a medium was as good as crippling themselves.

"Hey, just listen. Why do you always want to kill me?",

"The kid only fainted, nothing serious. As for stopping him, how could I? When using my aura sense on all the kids. I noticed something strange about that kid. First, his body is as strong as a peak intermediate-tier beast while he was covered in some sort of strange energy. Even I couldn't look into it",

"That is why I let him do it. I wanted to see his awakened element and let me tell you one thing. It was totally worth it",

This time, the man didn't give the dean a chance to speak and kept on speaking,

" Well, let me tell you. The kid awakened a legendary element, and a strong one at that too. He awakened the legendary Space element",

This time, the man clearly stopped and even took out his phone to record the dean's and surely. He really did get what he wanted to.

The dean's mouth remained open like an 'o', while his eyes almost popped out their sockets.

It would be an understatement to say that the dean was surprised. Well, he was beyond surprised. After all, it wasn't every year you get a genius like that. Heck not even in the last ten years had a genius like that been born.

Not to mention the space ability. That acted as the cherry on top. Like a perfect and smooth finish.

'Click',

The sound of the shutter click woke the dean from his daze. And seeing the dean regain his composure, the old man instantly hid his phone.

He really didn't want his blackmail material to be deleted. After all, the dean wasn't forgiving on such matters.

"Ahem, Would you at least care to tell me who the kid is",

The dean asked after settling himself and cleaning the drool off from his face.

The old man nodded and said,

"Yeah, I asked for that kid's file. But the Super AI told me that only you have access to that kid's file. So I only have his name. But I have to ask. Why have you restricted access to his file? Is he some bigshot's secret child or something?",

Listening to the man's ramblings, the dean got agitated as he finally exploded,

"The heck with it Abraham. I don't keep secrets for those big shots. You know it very well. Just tell me that kid's name. I think you have gotten old. To the point, you can't even use the Super AI? Now tell me his name",

Listening to the dean's words. The old man got conflicted and thought he might have made a mistake while searching for the file. Not wanting to invite unnecessary trouble from the dean, the old man spoke,

"I guess I might have made a mistake. Yeah, the name of that kid is Ray Xanders",
