Boom….boom!

With that booming sound, the explosion dissipated, and the day became brighter once again.

"Cynthia, what did you think about my lightning energy blast?" Bobby asked telepathically in his head, as he beamed from ear to ear.

"Um, good. The explosive level is superb considering the amount of energy concentrated on it. Anyway, there is still room for improvement." Cynthia responded after pondering for a while.

Then Bobby looked around and saw his room was a mess as everything was burnt to smithereens and all the walls and floors were char black.

"Whatever. I'll let someone redecorate this room." He said and walked inside the washroom to have a warm bath.

And for the rest of the day, he spent his time mostly with Claire and Mia, and the other time he would visit Governor Flint and would stroll around the city randomly.

Soon the day of his Chief selection day came and Bobby left the city in a flying vessel under the watchful eyes of the city dwellers and amid warm cheers.

The scene was within a secret ground in the Blue Lagoon unit's main military site.

There were already thirteen angels in front of a gigantic temple. Two of them were youths who were also the seeds for the Chief's selection.

"Folks, why don't we start the ceremony?" suggested a Senior Officer from the Tempest family.

"No, there is still one more chosen seed left to come here." Vice-Chancellor Kuppo strongly denied it. "And there's still half an hour left as we have agreed upon."

"Hahaha, speaking of the devil. He's already here." He further added as he glanced at the sky.

Soon, a luxurious-looking flying vessel appeared and landed near to them.

Then Bobby, in Loki's disguise, jumped out of the flying vessel. And he walked toward the group of people.

He saluted and asked with a friendly smile, "How're you doing, sir?"

The two interacted for a while merrily as all the other elders and the two youths glared at him, unwelcoming.

Observing the two seedlings, Bobby saw ‌the one named Logan Bradworth had a 35 energy level and seemed full of himself with an arrogant air about him, whereas the other named Juno Tempest had a 39 energy level.

Kuppo took out three pieces of paper, passed each to the three youths, and said, "Your trial is to bring this token back to us, okay?... This token belongs to the 1st Chief."

Finally, Vice-Chancellor Kuppo glanced around and announced, "Alright, it's time to start the ceremony." He then walked toward the magnificent-looking gigantic door of the temple and touched it with both his hands.

Then the ten elders, who were mostly from the four noble families, also approached and touched the wall. After that, they all harmoniously chanted different spells on each of their own and infused their Angelic Grace energy into it, holding nothing back.

Several minutes later, they all ended their incantations and a glaring white angelic design with a pair of white wings appeared on the wall.

"My lord, in the name of great Archangel Michael, please let this sacred door open for me!" Vice-Chancellor Kuppo said and gave a final powerful pull, making it open gradually with a creaking sound.

"Alright, you three, get inside quickly. We can only hold it for another 10 seconds." He yelled.

Three of the youths darted inside, and the eleven men holding the gate let go, causing the door to shut with a loud bang.

Inside the gigantic hall, Bobby scanned around and saw that there were many enormous stone statues that were supposedly the first chief of the Blue Lagoon Unit. But in the middle was the biggest one of them.

The other youths didn't rashly attack Bobby, but from their expressions, it was pretty clear ‌‌they were hostile to him.

Suddenly, a beam of light came out from the stone statue's head and announced in an old Porus while catching the three's attention, "Welcome to the 265th Chief Selection Test!"

"You three must be this term's seedlings. Congratulations! You're just a step away from becoming Blue Lagoon Unit's Chief. Alright, stay still. I will activate three portals each for you and will send you to the Bitter Terrain Exoplanet. And what you all are searching for is somewhere in the tallest peak of that world. Well, best of luck to all of you."

In an instant, three white beams of light fell upon them and their bodies disappeared.

Just after that, the white mass of light turned into black and spoke in an eerie tone, "Kekeke… Master, I've already sent another three outstanding geniuses for your lunch. Have a grand feast and grow faster and stronger just like a bat out of the hell. And now we can devour the entire area where the gods even designated it as their forbidden territory."

In the next second, the black mass transformed into a humanoid with three heads and six hands, along with a long lizard-like tail. In appearance, the humanoid was ghastly.

He glanced at the stone statue and said, slurping with his long tongue, "Jejejeje, you're the most delicious thing I've ever eaten, and your part of the soul, which my master gave me, was even better. I hope among these three there might be someone as delicious as you."

The next second, Bobby realized he was already standing in a field of Roses that he had never seen before. He unconsciously stretched out his hand, plugged a red rose, and sniffed.

"Hey, stop! What the hell do you think you're doing? You're now in a completely unknown exoplanet of which I don't even have any basic knowledge." Cynthia warned as her voice chimed in his head.

"I know it was ‌careless of me," Bobby responded as he continued sniffing the red rose. He then muttered in confusion. "But why do I feel so much familiar with this place? And somehow I feel as if I'm in my home; the air and the smell of these roses ‌make me nostalgic about something, but I couldn't actually put a finger on it. It's as if I'm experiencing déjà vu like I did the night before in my dream, which I've since forgotten."
