Taking the Mafia to the Magic World-Chapter 55: Awakening Time 4

When the ancient and powerful voice of the temple master stopped sounding, the obelisk in the middle of the Awakening Platform shone brightly and shot up against the ceiling.

At that moment, everyone on that platform felt the mana in the surroundings becoming more agitated as if they had suddenly entered a 'pot' with bubbling 'water'.

Their bodies gave off different sensations, some feeling chills, others muscle spasms. All the mana in their bodies at that instant seemed out of their control, and they felt unable to enhance their bodies with this natural essence.

Vicente kept his eyes closed during this initial moment, trying to feel as much as possible about this unique Polaris Realm experience.

Meanwhile, he felt a heat rising from his forehead as pulses coursed through his body.

For those outside the Awakening Platform, it was impossible to feel what was happening inside. Only those going through the experience could feel every sensation generated by the ceremony.

Therefore, Vicente was not familiar with these sensations, even though he had already witnessed Lauren and Rory's Awakenings.

But he was not lost to these pulses that passed through his body.

Vice remained focused on himself, ignoring these external sensations to look inside himself, checking his own existence.

In doing so, he felt something hit the middle of his forehead, and all the mana in his body began to change.

A smile formed on his face as he imagined the powers he would achieve.

Whether they were good or not, they would be better than what he had without a Magic Gem!

Crack!

But as he smiled in anticipation, he felt like a great crack had appeared inside his being.

Immediately he lost the smile on his face and thought that the gem about to merge with him was breaking apart, something totally out of the ordinary.

But that was not what was behind this sound!

After a few seconds of dreading, suddenly, Vicente felt the mana in his body split into two totally unequal parts.

More than 80% of the mana went to one side, and less than 20% portion went to the other. At the same time, he could almost see in his mind a diagram with his body's shape, illustrating what was happening.

'What's wrong?' He wondered, looking at this diagram in his imagination.

Then a large shadow loomed over Vicente and his diagram, turning the surroundings of his imagination into absolute darkness.

As everything in that space seemed to turn black, only a tiny light source remained beside Vicente and his diagram, which was now divided between a 99% portion and a 1% portion.

Then, an enormous gaze opened within the darkness and looked at Vicente. 'Don't look for me until your fifth pentagram. Now go!'

Vicente's eyes suddenly opened after he thought of this thing telling him that and looked down at himself, feeling his clothes soaked, his hair wet, and his breathing agitated.

He shivered and looked down at his hands, not realizing that everyone in the surrounding area was watching him as the gem on his forehead finally took shape.

"Did he make it in the last following?"

"No, if I'm not mistaken, he formed his pentagram after the obelisk's glow ended..."

"You must be wrong. That would be impossible."

Murmurs arose throughout the galleries of the temple as people looked at Vicente, seeing this young man's unusual situation.

'Was he so nervous?' a member of the Awakening Temple wondered as he looked at Vicente.

Meanwhile, everyone was looking at what had appeared on Vice's forehead. An irregularly shaped Magic Gem was wedged between his eyebrows with a rather strange shape.

Typically, Magic Gems were continuous, but Vicente's gem had two parts, one that looked like a pentagram with black lines and one below the pentagram shaped like a lying '69,' similar to the representation of the sign of Cancer.

Both parts of this Magic Gem were of a yellow color similar to the color of gold.

Rory and the men from Vicente were celebrating for him, but this young man did not care about any of the people watching him.

Whether they were happy for him, curious, or making negative comments, he wasn't listening or seeing anything.

In the present instant, he was gradually losing his fright of moments ago and was noticing the strangeness in his body.

'That... But... That's two Magic Pentagrams!' He shouted in his mind as he felt two pentagrams, not just one, as it should be.

'The first Pentagram is Red... But what about this Yellow one?' He swallowed his saliva, feeling in his body a Pentagram much stronger than his body should be able to handle.

As he thought about this, little by little, he began to feel all his characteristics at a much higher level, as well as his control over his mana.

He still needed to test his new qualities, but he could already feel that he was faster, stronger, more flexible, and more agile. In short, everything about himself had improved.

Even the speed of his thoughts had changed, as had his ability to learn.

Best of all was his mana, which had practically doubled in intensity. With a bit of training, he could have total control over it!

Because of these changes, while people were still watching him, he understood what had just happened and what his first powers were. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥．𝐜𝐨𝗺

His eyes fluttered, and he thought of the only possible explanation, remembering a conversation from years ago.

'... without a space to ADD a second Magic Gem, the person who went through a second awakening would suffer a mental and physical collapse...'

He remembered the woman who had held him outside the Awakening Platform of the Saltstar City temple during the ceremony where Lauren had awakened her magical powers.

Gulp!

'I have two souls! Do I have two Magic Gems?' He wondered, feeling that this alone could explain his situation.

After all, it was impossible to have two Pentagrams and only be in the 1st stage, as was his case.

'But how? Didn't I just absorb one Magic Gem?' He wondered, but the feeling in his body was too strong for him to think he only had one Magic Gem.

'I have two gems!' He finally smiled, imagining that the fact that he had transmigrated to this world would explain the two souls.

And indeed, Vicente had not reincarnated in Polaris Realm after dying on Earth. He had transmigrated to this world and occupied the body of Kate and Andrew's stillborn child.

He had a soul fragment of the one who was supposed to be the son of those two, but also his soul!

Amid his discovery, Vicente did not disregard his family ties and was happy to have two powers.

He did not know where this would lead him, but through these abilities that he would build from this day forward, he would seek his revenge and justice to the names of Andrew and Kate, but also rescue Lauren!

"One day! One day I will solve all of this!" He muttered to himself before looking at his surroundings and deciding to leave from there.
