infodatos Chapter 611 611: Authority · Second Chance
Chapter 611 611: Authority · Second Chance
Yaoyao nodded. This matter was not some particularly great secret for top-tier [Chosen Ones] like them.
The mystery of [Chosen Ones] was only towards those other ordinary Reincarnators.
"To be accurate, it's not an ability, it's an Authority."
"Authority?"
Jin Yue'an didn't understand.
Yaoyao subsequently explained.
Compared to other Reincarnators directly drafted into the Space, [Chosen Ones] possessed talents needed by the Space. Therefore, everyone actually possessed some Authorities that ordinary Reincarnators did not.
When saying this, Yaoyao didn't hide the arrogance in her eyes at all; that was the most special thing about [Chosen Ones].
This group was like the "Celestial Dragons" among the Reincarnator group. Not only could they produce some special items that ordinary Reincarnators absolutely could not produce, such as [Scapegoat Dolls], [Slave Shackles], [Directional Anchors], etc.;
Even their mission difficulty was lower than that of ordinary Reincarnators.
Often, when Reincarnators with the same strength evaluation were deployed into a mission world, [Chosen Ones] would be arranged into a more advantageous faction.
For example, when deployed to the Demon Slayer world, Chosen Ones would mostly be arranged into Muzan's faction; when deployed to the One Piece world, Chosen Ones would mostly be arranged into factions like the Marine Headquarters or some powerful branches.
This was an inherent preferential treatment, and also an Authority!
Kaito Shirogane, however, recalled the Space's prompt after obtaining the [Sephiroth]. Whether it was the hint when initially obtaining it that submitting it to the Space would yield a super-high reward,
Or in the [Sephiroth]'s interface description, it heavily emphasized the dangerous consequences of being detected by The Primordial Dragon Court and The Living Tribunal once he used the Sephiroth.
What the Space most wanted him to do was probably to submit the Sephiroth, and it would give him the reward of S-Rank Singularity * 2 and any Authority within Tier 3 * 1.
This Authority was probably exactly the Authority of the Chosen Ones Yaoyao was talking about right now.
"Every Chosen One possesses a talent akin to a certain function of the Space. Even after becoming powerful, they can enhance or make up for that part of the Space's capabilities. Therefore, we also possess special Authorities in certain domains."
"For example, perceiving the specific information of a mission world, perceiving the information of certain Reincarnators, making certain degrees of modifications to missions..."
"Even, within our assembly, Chosen Ones capable of directly modifying Reincarnators' [Information] have already appeared. This is Authority; this is true endowment!"
Yaoyao's eyelids drooped, her arrogance revealing itself.
"Then what Authority can you give me?"
Kaito Shirogane, who was in a good mood, didn't interrupt her either, directly speaking up to ask.
Yaoyao remembered that adult's arrangement and also realized that she probably had nothing to be proud of in front of Mercenary Tao.
That adult said that Mercenary Tao was a type even more noble than [Chosen Ones]. Therefore, bestowing an Authority upon the other party, allowing the other party to become a [Chosen One], was a good thing for them.
Yaoyao traced her hand in the air. Golden radiance appeared, condensing into lines of text.
"The adult said, if you only want to fulfill the requirement of that Card, the lowest level Authority would suffice. But as an investment because he favors you, he is willing to give you an Authority: [Second Chance]."
"This is a Third-Tier Authority, equivalent to the extent after our [Chosen Ones] enhance their talents to the third tier."
In the air, the golden radiance converged into the words "Second Chance," shining brightly.
Kaito Shirogane indeed only needed a most basic Authority. As long as he was a Chosen One, he could probably fulfill the requirement of [Tarot · The World · Reversed (XXI)].
But the other party proactively offered a higher option. This made Kaito Shirogane realize that Azure Sky's Little Garden plan definitely contained a huge secret he didn't yet understand.
He absolutely didn't believe that Aizen and that mysterious King of Destiny would be so kind-hearted as to specifically give him these good things. The only explanation was that in order to prevent Azure Sky from successfully completing its plan, they judged they must give something of this level.
The Little Garden world was a special world concentrating top-tier monsters from various worldviews and mythological lineages. In that kind of world, there were too many things Azure Sky could scheme for, and the value was too high.
Kaito Shirogane was willing to use himself as a bargaining chip to make these three parties expend a bit more cost.
[Second Chance]
[Authority · Third Tier (Cannot be upgraded)]
[Effect: You possess the Authority to negate a previous choice and choose again] (Can only be used within the scope of Space Authority)
Kaito Shirogane carefully examined that detailed explanation. This Authority to choose again could only take effect on the Space's choices.
In other words, whatever problems and choices Kaito Shirogane encountered in the real world, he could not use this Authority to obtain a second chance. This was only a Space Authority, not an Authority of the world.
But within the Space, the result of this Authority was extremely terrifying.
For example, when Kaito Shirogane opened a Crimson Drop Card and chose to extract an item, if he was dissatisfied with the result after extraction, he could use the Authority to re-extract;
Or when choosing to precipitate a bloodline item, if precipitation failed due to that overly low probability, Kaito Shirogane had the right to overturn the Space's extraction this time and re-extract once more.
There were many such examples, from the opening of Drop Cards to the results of the Goddess's Refinement and Spiritual Awakening Bloodline, all could be reset by the Authority!
[You lost Item: Blood Marrow of the King of Bronze and Fire]
[You obtained Authority: Second Chance]
Kaito Shirogane gently tossed it, and the blood marrow spun and fell into the hands of the woman in the qipao. This woman curiously looked at the bloodline item in her hand that constantly burned like fire.
She didn't understand why the value of this thing would be so high. Logically speaking, even after the Monarchs of the Dragon Raja world fused, it shouldn't reach the [World's Rare Treasure] quality.
Moreover, this thing was a trial-type bloodline item that possessed intense negative effects, so its value should be even lower.
Why would that adult be willing to bring out a Third-Tier Authority to trade with Mercenary Tao? The number of freely tradable Third-Tier Authorities in the entire assembly probably didn't exceed 10.
Could it really be purely to invest in Mercenary Tao?!
Kaito Shirogane discovered that this Yaoyao was obviously not as smart as that Kurushi, but stupid people always have the benefits of stupid people.
At least, on this trip, the other party not only completed the trade but also gave him quite a lot of extra information about [Chosen Ones].
"Thank you, Miss Yaoyao. Send my regards to that King, just say, I will remember his investment this time~"
Yaoyao hesitated and nodded. She hadn't dealt with Mercenary Tao before, only knowing the other party was a cruel and cunning vicious beast. She didn't expect that during this meeting, besides the avatar's face being a bit strange, the other party actually behaved quite approachably!
Could the rumors be wrong?
She indicated that she would convey the result of this meeting to that adult, then teleported away with the blood marrow.
Kaito Shirogane immediately dismissed Yinian Qingsi and the others. He first grabbed that golden radiance.
[Special Reincarnator EX051, do you accept the Authority: Second Chance?]
"Yes"
[Special Reincarnator EX051, you already possess the Authority: Second Chance]
Almost the instant he obtained this Authority, the Tarot Sequence Card with the pitch-black back in his hand began to generate an intense reaction.
That was a special induction. The sequence that had once absorbed Kaito Shirogane's blood and delayed activation for a long time began to react at this moment.
[Special Reincarnator EX051, please open the trial in any mission world]
