The God Virus

"Judge elder, when can I go to the main treasury in order to pick the item I want?" After his victory was announced, Virus who wasn't interested in anything else questioned.

"Hmm… the treasury? You mean the reward for your championship? I don't really know… you should ask…" Just as he was about to finish his sentence, he was interrupted by someone's sudden appearance right beside them.

And the moment he realized who the other person was, bowing in respect, the judge elder uttered, "This elder greets the Sun elder!"

"Hmm…" Nodding his head in reply, the Sun elder voiced, "You may go now, I'll accompany and answer junior Vee's questions myself… also, notify the elder responsible for granting the rewards that I'll take the winners of both of the contests to the treasury myself… you're dismissed."

"Yes, Sun elder." Bowing once again in respect, the judge elder disappeared.

After the judge elder disappeared, changing the direction of his gaze toward Virus, a kind smile showed itself on his face as he began talking, "Junior Vee, you're truly a heaven-defying genius, I'm both honored and excited that our sect has the chance to come across a disciple like you!"

"Thank you." Virus replied casually as he was then about to continue with a question of his own, when the Sun elder proceeded, "Right, in our last meeting, you had made a promise to visit this oldie … and I've been looking forward to that day to arrive ever since… however, you still haven't made that visit… honestly, this makes this oldie a little sad…"

Listening to his words, Virus pondered a little awkwardly, 'Well… I was going to make a visit if I couldn't find any other alternative in order to gain access to the main treasury… but fortunately, the contests happened to be right around the corner… anyway, sorry I couldn't find the chance of tricking you into giving me that fruit, my bad.'

After this notion went through his head, looking at the Sun elder in front of him with a half-smile, he replied, "Unfortunately, I was too occupied with the contest… so I couldn't make that visit..."

"Is that so??? Then it's fine! This oldie's just worried that you might not receive the best resources you deserve for your cultivation if things continue like this… it would be such a pity for an unparalleled disciple with your talents to be buried just because you couldn't gain access to the resources you deserve or because you trusted the wrong person." By the end of his words, a sharp light passed through his eyes as if they were yelling, 'I mean your master.'

'Tch, just stop with the nonsense already… I'm sure both of you have your own personal ulterior motives in trying to have me as your disciple… I'm gonna leave soon anyway… so what's the point of these talks now… take me to the main treasury instead of wasting so much of my time…' Even though this impatient notion went through his head, externally, he let out a laugh as he proclaimed, "Haha, I'm embarrassed Sun elder, I'm not such talent as you state…"

"Haha, you must be joking, junior Vee! If you're not a talent… then I don't know who in this world would deserve to be called a talent! I mean… first, you made the orb's color change into pale white… something completely unheard of… then, you actually achieved a hundred percent completion rate in the examination… These two facts already prove that you're worthy of being called a monstrous talent… no, something even beyond the word monstrous!"

Then, after a short meaningful look, he continued, "However, the point is that the list doesn't stop there as you're now basically the strongest disciple among the Inferior, Normal, and Superior disciples too… and shockingly, you're the strongest even though you haven't even begun cultivation!"

At this point, a glint seemed to pass through his eyes as he added, "I'm sure with just these qualifications, any sects or schools out there would kill to have you… yet, you chose our sect… and this is also why it's making me die in regret that you're the disciple of that person… I mean it's such a waste, sigh, I must be such an irresponsible leader for this to happen inside my own sect under my watch." By the end of his words, the Sun elder couldn't help but let out a disappointed sigh.

'What a glib-tongue you got there…' Thought Virus as he listened to his words.

Then, the Sun elder continued further, "Anyway, what I'm trying to get at is that my offer still stands, so… how about you become my own personal disciple… and like this, you might even have the chance of ascending to an even higher rank in the sect by becoming one of those Supreme disciples in our sect one day! How about it, junior Vee?"

Surprised, Virus thought, 'Hmm? Supreme disciples? So the Superior disciples weren't the most powerful ones in the sect? Well, whatever… since it doesn't matter to me now anyway.' However, this surprise didn't last for long as he uttered, "Thank you for having such a high opinion of this disciple, Sun elder. I promise to consider your offer very seriously and provide you with an answer soon…"

'Soon as in… never.' At the same time, this amusing notion passed through his mind.

Seeing him avoid giving a clear response to his offer once again, the Sun elder couldn't stop a small frown from appearing on his forehead, though it disappeared almost the instant it had shown itself as he said, "Okay… I'll wait for that answer… just, have in mind that if you become my disciple, I'll try my best to protect you!"

These words of his basically meant that he would try his best to protect Virus from those who coveted his ring and completely understanding what the Sun elder was underlying by those words, Virus stated, "Okay, thank you… oh by the way, when are you going to take me and apprentice-sister to pick the item we desire from the main treasury?" Then, acting as if this was a totally random subject, Virus finally inquired about the most important thing he wanted to know about.

"Oh, right! Tell your senior apprentice-sister to come and I'll take you two to the treasury in order to receive your prize right away!" Wearing a grin that normally a kind elder would give to a junior he really cares about, the Sun elder responded.

'At last!' Thinking this, Virus stead, "Okay, please wait for a moment for me to change and call my apprentice-sister over…"

"Sure… no worries, I'll wait for you two outside."

After that, going to his own resting room, first, deactivating his ring, Virus changed into a new set of clothes before walking out of the room only to see that the golden beauty and Astes were already waiting for him right outside.

"Apprentice-sister… the Sun elder's waiting for us outside… he's going to take us to the main treasury." As Virus stated this, oddly, much to his surprise, he spotted a rather indistinct light of excitement pass through her eyes which disappeared immediately afterward.

'Could she be also after something in the main treasury?' Virus deliberated after spotting that momentary light inside Astes' eyes.
