"What do you mean that they have the power of a great spirit. The great spirits are beings that rule over their incarnations of power, such as the Great Spirit of Light Ragyog and Great Spirit of Water Aigean who have blessed our kingdom." The king said, getting in on the conversation.
The great spirits are considered beings of the highest caliber and were often worshiped, and even could bestow blessings upon their most devoted followers.
"I am just telling you what I see. I have no idea how a ghost could gain the powers of a great spirit, but they did. However, they are still only level forty-two, and their powers are immature. Though if I had to gage their strength, I would put it at the same level as a mythic grade magical beast that is on the lower end."
Hearing this everyone became silent to process what they had just heard.
Mythic grade magical beasts were the pinnacle of the world with very few people ever reaching a similar level of power.
Even Aria and Darius could not say they would be able to beat a mythic grade magical beast near their level, in fact even a legendary grade magical beast was probably beyond them if at the same level.
And if anyone else had given this appraisal they would not have believed it, but if anyone knew about the power that a mythic grade magical beast held, it was Gwyneira.
Unfortunately, the staggering facts about Marcus' true status were not done yet as Gwyneira said, "And one more thing. They have the personal status skill meaning they are a transmigration from Earth, the same place as Boreas is from."
If everyone had not already been astounded, they were now.
Everything about Marcus that Gwyneira had told them was nearly unbelievable individually, but all together seemed completely impossible.
A transmigration from Earth, that was a monster and a great spirit. That was beyond any expectation that they could have imagined.
"So, what do you think we should do with them Gwyneira." The king asked.
He trusted her opinion on the matter more than anyone's and he was not certain how or if he could proceed on his own.
A great spirit was a revered existence, while a ghost would normally be considered a monster that needed to be exercised, even if tale of them becoming guardian spirits did exist.
And on the other hand, was that the entity in question was also a transmigration, who normally either brought great boons, or ruin.
After thinking about it for a moment, Gwyneira said, "Aria you are already friendly with them, yes?"
Nodding her head Aria said, "I am. They helped to protect River Landing during the ice ant attack, and I gave them a title for their exemplary work, and to connect them to our kingdom. And recently I helped them with an incident involving Permafrost, and then they brought us the evidence we needed to get rid of that parasite."
"I see so they have already helped our kingdom on multiple occasions. I see no reason to antagonize them, but we cannot sit idly by either without ascertaining their intentions. Aria once this tournament is over, would you mind setting up a meeting for me with them."
"Very well it shall be done." Aria said as she bowed her head.
With that settled the tension in the room began to wane as the higher ups in the kingdom felt comfortable leaving this issue to Gwyneira.
"Oh, I nearly forgot the boy she is fighting is also a transmigration from Earth." Gwyneira said, suddenly remembering it since Marcus' uniqueness far outshined his.
Nevertheless, having another bomb dropped on them caused the apprehension they were feeling to come back as they looked for Gwyneira for answers.
"Ah yes that boy Miguel LaRusso is also from the planet that these transmigrators call Earth. Though he is human at least, though I suppose he will be a bit difficult to deal with as well."
"What do you mean he will be difficult to deal with. Even if he is a transmigration, we can simply approach him and bring him into the fold. He is just barely an adult; I am sure we can just give him a title and a nice house to get him on our side. If he feels comfortable here, he will stay and protect his new home." The king said with a smile on his face at the prospect of having a transmigration in his army.
"It may not be that easy, one he has already joined the adventurers guild so I doubt they will let us take him easily, and two his blessing makes him troublesome."
"We have made concessions with the guild before so I am sure we can come to an agreement, and what do you mean his blessing is troublesome." Aira asked Gwyneira in an inquisitive manner.
Remembering something Gwyneira lit up a bit and said to Aria, "Why do you not go ahead and look for yourself. He does not have any layers of protection on him, so your level eight appraisal skill should show you what you want to know."
Mentally berating herself, Aria could not believe she had made such a mistake. It was not like everyone had the ability to pull one over on her, and she needed to get her mind levelheaded again.
Turning her appraisal skill towards the boy Miguel, Aria found quickly what Gwyneira was talking about.
"Blessing of the Hero!" Aria said in an astonished manner.
As she said this, everyone in the room other than Gwyneira who already knew turned their heads to look at Aria in surprise.
"Are you sure, is that kid really a true hero." The king asked almost in desperation.
However, Aria shook her head and said, "No he has the blessing of the hero, but he is not a true hero yet. His title is only fledgling hero."
"But I thought that the blessing of the hero could only be obtained when someone obtained the title of true hero after performing an act the system deems worthy." Darius said, his interest on the subject obvious.
"Yes, that would be right normally, but it appears that this kid got lucky and got the blessing as his gift when he was brought to this world. Still, it appears to have its limits since when Boreas obtained the title and blessing it gave him far more power than that kid has." Gwyneira said with a nostalgic smile on her face.
"I see, well a fledgling hero is certainly difficult to deal with but far less than a great spirit. I will try my best to bring the boy onto our side, and if all else fails we can lean on the adventurers guild to restrain him." The king said, while staring intently at the fight that was happening between Marcus and Miguel.
…
High above the arena well out of view from anyone else, stood a man who was looking down at the battle between Marcus and Miguel interest just lie the rulers of the kingdom.
He had come here specifically to see Marcus since one of his subordinates had reported how fascinating he is.
'You were right Voda, it was worth the trip here.. To think that a new great spirit would be born from a ghost and one of opposing elements at that.'
