Clap!
With that, Juri got up and said.
"Alright. Although I can't confirm if you are telling the entire truth, I guess I can be satisfied with what I heard. Now I confirmed that you aren't really kids. At least, not in your mind. Besides, you could have told some other lie, like you came from a powerful Sect or something like that. But you didn't, you made it clear that you at least trust our Tribe that much. That is already good enough in my eyes."
Juri's expression then got severe.
"I only ask you one thing, do not betray the Tribe. We have done a lot for you, so I expect you to reciprocate."
Rean sighed in relief.
"That is, of course, not a problem. After all, this is our new home too. Mother and Father also live here, and they like this place. Compared to the majority of the other Tribes outside, our own is a paradise already. At least for ordinary people."
Roan agreed with it too.
"I can't say that I have a lot of affection for this place as Rean, but I know how to pay favors. So you can count on me as well. Just be aware that there will come a day when I will leave this place."
Juri nodded. He already knew that Rean and Roan wouldn't stay here forever. Not to mention that he already has a plan for both of them.
"Great. Now, let's talk about how you are going to pay for all the Spirit Stones you used."
Rean and Roan already had a plan to deal with it too.
"It is okay. As long as we keep taking first and second places in the classes, we will eventually compensate for what we used today."
Alanda and Juri's mouth twitched.
"Do you even know what the word shame means? Do you really expect me to keep you two competing against a bunch of Kids at the start of their cultivation path? You are two adults, not to mention that you are in the Energy Gathering Realm. No way in hell I will keep you together with them!"

Rean and Roan looked away as if it had nothing to do with them.
Juri, on the other hand, had a better idea.
"No, we should definitely keep them together."
Alanda was taken aback!
"Isn't it way too unfair to do such a thing with the other Kids?"
Juri nodded.
"Of course it is, but if we take them out of the classes and start giving other tasks, everyone will find it too suspicious. Don't forget that they already caught a lot of attention with the Elemental Affinity Test. I don't want to increase the number of eyes on them. That being said..."
Juri looked at Rean and Roan with an evil smile.
Seeing that, they felt a chill on their backs.
The next day morning, Alanda went on the stage in front of the class and brought Rean and Roan together.
"Let me introduce your two new teachers. Rean and Roan."
The Larks Twins looked at all the kids in front of them with a gloomy expression. It turned out that since they are still in their kid's body, Juri thought that it would be a lot better if they were to help Alanda to teach the children. Kids often pay a lot more attention to their peers than adults. Juri felt that it was the perfect opportunity to bring the most of this situation. Having a whole model would help others improve a lot faster.
The kids, obviously, got surprised by that.
Seeing that their attention was caught, Alanda smiled and continued.
"Rean and Roan will be responsible for teaching you how to write and read. Also, they will help you during the fight lessons, correcting the mistakes you do. You can also go to them when you have other questions when we are not in class."
Without any other choice, Rean and Roan started to help Alanda with this batch of kids. It turned out that it was harder than they thought, though. Sure, the kids would pay more attention to them, but they also didn't take Rean and Roan seriously and would often run away. Because of that, the twins had a hard time keeping the kids in check.

Alanda, of course, was enjoying their suffering.
"Hahaha! Aren't you smart? How come you can't even teach a bunch of kids? I tell you this in advance. If they make no progress until the end of the month... your debts will not reduce."
Roan couldn't help but sigh.
"Well, at least it is not like we are losing Spirit Stones either. Let's take it slowly. Sooner or later, they will understand that it is important."
Rean nodded.
"It's not like we gonna die because they can't learn anyway."
However, Alanda already expected that they would be thinking like that.
Alanda had been keeping an eye on the twins ever since the assassination event 5 years ago. So he could be said to be one of those that know them the most after their parents and the two protectors.
"Also... I will tell your mother that all Desserts shall be suspended until you have shown results. I'm sure she will agree with the words of the Tribe Vice Leader... me!"
After hearing that, a dark and white aura started to spread from Rean and Roan.
"No... dessert?"
Boom!
Two tables in front of Rean and Roan were smashed by their hands. As Energy Gathering Realm cultivators, a simple wooden table was way too weak to resist their fists. Obviously, all the kids immediately looked at them with fear in their eyes.
Rean and Roan looked at the kids and pointed to the Field.
"The fighting class is starting earlier today. Everyone will come with us, and those who delay..."
They took a piece of the broken table each and smashed it with their hands.
"Will become just like those tables."
All the Kids had terrified expressions on their faces. In the next second, they all rushed into the Field.
Rean and Roan then started to give their lessons with a lot of 'passion.' While they were at it, they were especially harsh with the kids that were messing the most during the writing and reading class. Whether it was a girl or boy, it didn't matter. They showed no mercy!
What followed was several cries from several kids who couldn't take it. However, Aland did not intervene. It is not like he is against spartan teaching methods to start with. Besides, the ones who were doing it were another two 'kids,' so it should be fine.
By the end of the class, all the kids looked at Rean and Roan as if they were demons. Several of them had red eyes from crying too much, but the demon twins didn't care at all, so they had to swallow their tears in the end.
Rean and Roan then prepared a writing and reading homework for the class.
After distributing the paper, they looked at the other kids with a cold aura and said.
"Those who don't finish this homework by tomorrow will have their fighting lesson extended by two times."
Yes, they heard it right. The fighting classes would continue. None of them would be able to escape. But those two didn't finish their homework, would have it twice as hard!
Once they heard that, fear appeared on their faces. Not a single one delayed, and they all rushed back to their homes. This class was bound to become the most diligent one that the Varen Tribe has ever seen!

Humanity's End
Given a year to prepare by the mysterious ‘system’ for contact with the wider galaxy, humanity must work to ensure the Earth’s defense is ready to meet any challenge. Sadly, most of the world seems dedicated to tearing itself apart as the year-end deadline gets closer. The west is in barely contained Chaos, while the east descends into internal conflict and war. The Pillar Forts, one of the few successful projects of the United Nations headed by the United States, stand ready to defend humanity against any invasion that may come through the strange Connection Pillars that appeared on each continent. Massive steel and stone walls that surround the Connection Pillars. They are filled with deadly men and women trained in all manner of warfare, each trained in the newly acquired System with skills and magical abilities that they put to deadly purpose. Beside these brave warriors, tanks, helicopters, artillery and more stand ready to defend humanity at each of these powerful installations. But, can they overcome the disparity in levels and experience between themselves and the forces that threaten them and the rest of humanity? Main Characters Jessica Brown- A young African American girl. Her 18th birthday in Detroit was the same day the systems message appeared. She discovered she was Level 7, much higher than most of the rest of the world. Why she is blessed, or cursed, with the power she doesn’t know. But what she does know is that she rather likes the feeling that comes with manipulating magic. The week after her birthday, government workers started testing every person in the US in a massive census effort of skills and abilities. Jessica Brown found herself conscripted into the US Magical Corp, a new branch of the US Military, and shipped off to a Pillar Fort. Somewhere hot and muggy in her ancestors’ home of Africa. As she grows stronger, she finds she has some connection to the pillars. While everyone else sees beauty or danger when they look at the pillars, after connection is made all Jessica can see is a Tree. A tree the size of the entire universe. Isaka Smith - is a third generation American and farmer who just wants to be left alone. But she is dragged into the situation by events beyond her control. When people in her small town had to deal with rioters and looters after the system announcement, she rallied them to defend themselves, earning her a trait that the government found extraordinarily useful. After a visit to a local reservation, she finds herself conscripted to lead one of the many small support towns erected around the great pillar forts. Not near her old home, but in far-flung Africa. John McIntire, the “Fighting Bull” -The commander of the African Fort, but because of circumstances beyond his ability to contend with shortly after taking command after being re-activated from retirement, he finds communication with his chain of command increasingly difficult. The US government, hell, even the United Nations, seems to have fallen into complete and utter chaos. The African Union is embroiled in a bitter civil war just outside his door, and supposedly, most of the world governments are in similar situations. Meanwhile, John must do his best to be ready to facilitate diplomacy, or to match the hostile argument of whatever force might come through the pillar of light when the year timer finishes counting down. Can our heros defend Earth from outside threats, while it tares itself apart? Or will they need to rebuild from the ground up? DEDICATION: This story is dedicated to my father who passed away recently. Jim Holloway, you’ll be missed you old silverback gorilla. Love you dad. Always have, always will.
