With his sizeable white gown and hair covering his face, Owen wasn’t very recognisable to the outside people. Unlike the other family leaders, no one knew what he looked like. Today was the first time the newly appointed head was revealed, and that was only found out to the people in the booth.
Sure, there were some like Quinn and his group who had paid attention to who was sitting in those seats. But none that knew about the situation. When looking at someone so young, they would have never suspected them of being a leader.
The people around outside weren’t even paying attention to such a thing that was happening off to the side.
They were far too involved in their own things or the gaming centre that was close by. After learning about Vorden’s true name, he had no choice and gave his hand.
The excitement that was felt when following this student now turned into horror. Although his heart was beating rapidly and he was a little scared, there still was a little spark in the back of his mind.
’I wonder why he needs to borrow my power?’ His curiosity to find out new and exciting things had always been his downfall. He even felt that his current views were different from the head and those around him.
Owen was always interested in the younger generation who was closer to his age. He wanted to know how they felt about the way things were currently run.
However, if he was to try to get involved or intervene in a situation like this, it would have possibly been one of the most dangerous things to do.
"Thank you." Vorden said, letting go of Owen’s hand.
No matter how interested Owen was, now was not the time to get involved with such a dangerous individual. He took a few steps back and planned to get away but seeing his actions Vorden called out to him immediately.
"Wait." Vorden called out. "I want you to take me to where the other leaders are."
Hearing this came as a considerable shock to Owen, was he planning to use their powers too? The big four leaders powers were beyond a level 8 ability. It was to the point where it couldn’t be measured. When looking at Vorden, it was clear he was a student, whoever he had trouble with or whoever he needed to deal with. Just his power alone should have been enough.
Now the excitement was too much, and he had even forgotten to hide the grin on his face.
’Maybe the events won’t be so boring after all.’
With no choice, Owen walked, and Vorden followed behind. On the way, they quickly went to one of the stalls to purchase a change of clothing for Vorden. He too was now in a large white gown that was a little too big, as part of the back was dragging along the floor.
"Is this really necessary?" He asked.
"Of course." Owen chuckled as the two of them, continued to walk.
Eventually, they had reached their destination. It was a hotel room that was slightly larger and fancier than the rest, Hotel number one. This was where all of the higher class members that were invited to the event were staying. The rest had to get a train out to other parts of the city and come in early in the morning.
Before entering the building, the two of them stopped outside.
"Do you know how to use my powers?" Owen asked.
"Not everything, but I should be able to do something." Vorden replied as he started to twirl his hand around. Particular elemental abilities were quite similar in use but reacted differently when being used. An example of this was when gathering water. To gather water and wind, one did the same thing, but water would be a bit harder to control due to the weight and shape of it.
When twirling his hand in a circular motion, he tried to imagine the ability as a water one. Suddenly following the palm of his hand, a stream of electric would follow it. He continued to move his hands in a circular motion, and now a full circle of blue electrical light could be seen.
"Quick learner as expected," Owen said, impressed. "The kids at our school would cry in horror if they found out you could produce something like that on your first try."
Owen then opened up two of his fingers and created a connected spark, passing the blue lightning between his thumb to his finger. "This should do, there is no need to perform what you did before."
With the quick lesson over, the two of them walked up to the front of the hotel lobby where the guards were stationed. Owen was allowed to pass but Vorden was stopped.
"That kid is with me, he is a member of the Graylash family." Owen said with a wink towards Vorden.
’No guards?’ Vorden noticed. This was upon the request of the four themselves. They preferred it this way. Secrecy was a big part of thier power, and Vorden knew that better than anyone. ƒrēewebnovel.com
