Orion turned around in time to see Mandar Schion looking towards him with a complex expression.
"What do you mean?.Is this some sort of classified information?."Orion couldn't help but remember the governments of his previous world who continuously kept secrets from people and only wanted control.No matter where Orion looked there were more similarities to his previous world then previously thought but he chalked it up to human nature.
"Yes it is highly classified information that only the higher ups of every nation and city in the world knows.You have to promise me that you won't tell anyone as no good will come of it."Mandar Schion looked Orion in the eyes as he wanted him to agree to the promise.
"Very well I promise I won't tell anyone but can you please tell me why this ritual is so necessary."Orion already had some theories but he wanted some confirmation.
"Very well you have a right to know as my apprentice and test subject.You were told that you had the potential to reach great heights due to your abnormal body and blood.The thing is it isn't the same for everyone else.You see human beings have limits and some with higher limits then others.You are aware of the classes that categorise the strengh of all living creatures correct?."Mandar Schion spoke in a melancholy tone dripping with pessimism.
Orion thought back to the time when he used his assessment skill on the word status and learned the requirements for class C,B and A.Orion was currently at the mid class B.Orions answer to Mandars question was a simple nod.
"The idea of using classes to determine strengh came from the dragons shortly after the old times.The thing is few humans will ever reach the mid class A let alone the high or peak class A.Just getting into the A class alone makes a human the cream of the crop of their race.No matter how well humans train themselves they will eventually hit a limit.The only exception to this are the dauntless few who are born with mutations or are simply that damn special.You are one of those dauntless few granted you are not on the level of a legend yet.However even you will hit a limit it is inevitable."Mandar Schion kept going but was interrupted by a question by Orion.
"What's the point of raising the standards of classes so high if so few people will ever reach it?."asked Orion who thought it was stupid.
"I did tell you that the idea of classes was created by dragons.Well I should've told you that the idea of classes was meant for dragons.They needed to update the classes assigned to themselves since so many dragons grew to be beyond the A class however the idea of classes began to be adopted by all intelligent races who were weaker then the dragons and so the dragons left the idea of classes unupdated.They did however create the legendary S rank for themselves as well as other powerful creatures.Now back to the prospects of humans.Humans are well known to be the one of the more frail and weak races despite being more advanced than others.Naturally humans were under threat from powerful monsters so we had no choice but to create this ritual in order to create humans who could fight back.An example of a human created by this ritual is the current captain commander Darren Aries.He is at the high A class."Mandar Schion thought of Darren Aries with reverence as he had reached a height few other humans ever would.
"Where is Darren Aries currently and why haven't I heard of him lately?."Orion was curious as to why he hadn't heard of Darren Aries for the entire time he had been in Ring City.Although he still hadn't heard about some of the royal guard captains despite the fact that there were supposed to be twelve of them so maybe it was natural.
"He is currently abroad.You see when Darren Aries was born and created he was afflicted with a curse.The perpetrators have since been destroyed but the curse still remains.It is also a powerful curse that caused calamity and desolation to whatever location he remained within for too long.Hence Darren Aries is constantly travelling but not too far away from Ring City.I believe Darren Aries is currently in the main continent.I don't know whether or not we should call him back due to the threat of the goblins but we should be fine.Anyways let's get you something to eat tomorrow is another day."Mandar Schion then led Orion away to eat something.
