Before he knew it, the afternoon had passed. Ling Jiu left the Internet cafe and went home.
As soon as he entered the door, he smelled a tempting aroma. "Dad, what are you cooking? It smells so good!"
Ling Jiu was from a single-parent family. His parents divorced when he was very young. He and his sister were brought up by his father, who had to be a father and a mother at the same time. No one else could understand the hardship.
Especially when the company announced bankruptcy some time ago, it was a huge blow to his father.
If it weren't for his children, his father would have already died on the rooftop and his soul would have passed away.
Even so, his father had not been in a good state of mind recently. He had been drowning his sorrows in alcohol all day and was very dispirited. He had not cooked for a long time.
Did the sun rise from the west today?
Just as Ling Jiu was puzzled, his father poked his head out of the kitchen and smiled. "Son, you are back?"
"Dad, you are …"
After half a month of getting along, Ling Jiu had slowly accepted this cheap father of his. He was still very concerned about his son.
"I heard about what happened at school from your sister!" Ling Tianci smiled. "Son, congratulations on becoming an Arcanist. I am proud of you!"
"I knew it!"
Ling Jiu suddenly understood. No wonder his father came out. It turned out that he knew he had awakened his Arcana. This was indeed a cardiac stimulant.
"Sit down and rest for a while. The food will be ready soon. Let's have a drink and celebrate later!" His father was very excited.
"Do you need help?" Ling Jiu asked.
"No need!"
Not long after Ling Jiu sat down, his sister, Ling Xiaotong, came back. She threw herself at Ling Jiu as soon as she entered the door. "Brother, you are amazing!"
"It is just awakening an Arcana!"
Ling Jiu said disapprovingly.
"Pretend! Keep pretending! "
Ling Xiaotong's sister gave Ling Jiu a sideways glance. "Do you know, after the Arcana test today, the school put up a banner with this content: Warmly celebrating the awakening of Li Kai, Ling Jiu, and Han Chujun of our school, bringing glory to the school..."
"Han Chujun? She also awakened an Arcana? "
Ling Jiu was a little surprised. Of course, he knew Han Chujun. She was a member of the Olympic class, and the top student in the class.
What impressed Ling Jiu was that this girl not only had good academic performance, but she was also very pretty and had a good family background.
Han Chujun could have relied on her looks and her father, but she chose to rely on her talent.
"I didn't expect Han Chujun to awaken her Arcana! Xiaotong, do you know what arcana Han Chujun has awakened? "Ling Jiu asked.
"I heard it's a special-type Arcana, but I don't know the specifics!" The younger sister shook her head slightly.
"Special Arcana?"
"Serve the dishes!"
The meal was delicious. Ling Jiu's awakening of his Arcana was an earth-shattering event, and the whole family was especially happy.
Dinner ended very late. After sending off his excited sister, Ling Jiu went back to the house and tried to absorb the Gene Arcana.
"Theoretically, as long as I awaken my Arcana, I can sense the existence of Gene Arcana and absorb it into my body. I should be able to do the same!"
Ling Jiu took a deep breath and calmed himself down completely. "I heard that the first absorption is the most difficult, and it will get easier later on!"
"Relax!"
"Relax completely!"
"Hu ~ ~ ~"
"Hu ~ ~ ~"
A few minutes later, Ling Jiu gradually relaxed. His breathing became almost undetectable, and even his heartbeat became much slower...
One minute, two minutes, three minutes...
Suddenly, Ling Jiu saw a light spot dancing in the room like a firefly, drifting irregularly. Then there was a second, a third, and a fourth one.
More and more light spots appeared, dancing around Ling Jiu like dancing elves.
"Is this Gene Arcana?"
Looking at these light spots, Ling Jiu instinctively wanted to eat them.
As soon as this thought came to mind, Ling Jiu saw the nearest light spot flying toward him and finally disappearing into the top of his head.
Then a second, a third, a fourth... As more and more light spots drilled into his brain, Ling Jiu felt a chill in his head.
"Is this the feeling of absorbing Gene Arcana? It's amazing! "
He ate the light spots one by one. Although the speed was slow, Ling Jiu did not feel the slightest impatience. Instead, he felt it was very novel, and it was a wonderful feeling of practicing inner strength cultivation.
Before he knew it, the night had passed. Ling Jiu was awakened by the alarm clock. "It's already six o'clock? How time flies! "
Ling Jiu clearly felt that not much time had passed, but a night had passed. The key was that after absorbing Gene Arcana for a night, he did not feel tired or sleepy at all. Instead, he was full of energy and in an unprecedentedly good state.
"Brother, are you up yet?"
His sister's voice came from the door, and he could tell that she was still very excited.
"I'm up!"
Ling Jiu opened the door, and the little girl was standing outside in cute bunny pajamas with dark circles under her eyes. Ling Jiu wondered. "Did you not sleep well last night?"
"I was too excited last night!" His sister yawned. "I didn't sleep well!"
"You are really..."
Ling Jiu shook his head. "Hurry up and wash up. We have to go to school later!"
"Okay!"
His sister nodded and asked curiously. "Brother, you don't have to go to school anymore? You don't have to take the college entrance examination anymore? "
"Of course!"
Ling Jiu smiled. "But I have to go to school today. The principal called last night and wants to see me about something important!"
