"This body of the Host is purely human and does not contain the mythic bloodline. The attribute of cultivation for this body has not been selected yet.
Based on the Host's nature, Vivi has found five attributes that would be most suitable for this body.
Would you like to select one of those attributes or awaken your attribute naturally?
[Yes] [No]?
Note: Once you reach the Mid-stage Formation Realm, you will no longer have the option to select your attribute."
For a moment, the room stayed completely silent. My lips slowly parted and I exclaimed,
"Vivi... where have you been!? I was missing you!"
"Nano particles in this body needed Soulforce to activate Vivi. When the Host used his Soulforce, the nano particles charged, and Vivi successfully activated."
"Hmm, it must be referring to the time when that glove forcefully pulled out my Soulforce," I thought inwardly before speaking. "I would prefer to awaken my attribute naturally, but there is no harm in looking over the attributes you think are suitable for me. Show them."
"Initializing Host's request..."
"List of attributes most suitable for the Host's body:
1. Lightning
2. Flame
3. Darkness
4. Light
5. Yin-Yang
Note:
1. Once selected, the attribute cannot be changed again.
2. It is not necessary that the attribute awakened by the Host will be from this list."
After carefully reading the list, I replied in disappointment, "Vivi, you have both darkness and light mentioned in this list. How can I be suitable for both of these attributes when they are polar opposites of each other? You must scan yourself and check if there is a bug in you that is giving me this crappy list."
"Vivi does not contain any bugs, but it is a bug in which Vivi contains! The Host is a psychopathic maniac who unpredictably switches between cruel and kind. The cruel nature leads to the Darkness attribute, while the kind nature leads to the Light attribute. This is the reason the Host is suitable for both of them!"
"Y-you evil bitch! Don't you have an option for a filter!" I muttered, obviously offended by the one-after-another insults Vivi threw at me.
"..."
Sigh... "I'm the stupid one for getting angry at an AI."
Taking a deep breath, I calmed myself and focused on the decision of whether to select one of these attributes or use the traditional way.
Lightning was the attribute in my other body and the one I was most familiar with, but since I already had it, I wanted to try something different, so it was out.
I had already used the Light and Flame attributes by absorbing the Soulforce of Vyrion and Armin. They were fun to use, but something felt missing while using them. As for the Darkness attribute, there was already a creep using it, so it was also out, leaving me with only one option.
"Vivi, this Yin-Yang attribute... tell me more about it?"
"It's a legendary attribute that people with a balanced nature of life and death manage to awaken. In the history of Vyoman, there is only one person who awakened this legendary attribute—Battle God Aruma."
"I want it!" I declared in the blink of an eye without a second thought.
"Are you sure you want to select the Yin-Yang attribute for the cultivation of this body?
[Yes] [No]?
Note: Unlike other attributes, you will need both Yin and Yang energy to successfully break through to higher realms. Since you are male, your body can convert natural Soulforce into Yang energy on its own, but to obtain Yin energy, you can only cultivate at night under the presence of moonlight, absorb Yin energy from dead bodies, or perform dual cultivation with a person of strong Yin energy."
"Well, I can just cultivate at night, and as for dual cultivation, I will find a person with strong Yin energy and ask for their help," I thought inwardly and pressed the [Yes] button, completely unaware of what dual cultivation actually meant.
"Converting the pure Soulforce in the Host's dantian to the Yin-Yang attribute..."
One half of my body began heating up to the point of burning, while the other half turned colder than ice.
Uncomfortable from this strange sensation of cold and heat at the same time, I tried to join my hands to balance it out, but then—
"Warning! The Host must not move during the awakening of the attribute, or the conversion may fail, crippling the Host permanently!"
"Why wouldn't you tell me the important part earlier?" I muttered inwardly.
I spent the next ten minutes in agony through clenched teeth, which felt like an eternity.
---
A flaming energy erupted toward one half of the room, setting it on fire, while an icy attribute surged toward the other half, coating the walls with ice.
The smoke touched the ceiling, triggering the fire alarm and sprinklers.
"Congratulations! You have successfully awakened your attribute!"
As soon as the message popped up, I instantly jumped from my sitting position and tried to put out the fire with a blanket.
"Shit-shit-shit! The first thing I did after returning was setting my brother's hospital on fire!"
Within a couple of minutes, after the alarm was triggered, the door of the room burst open, and I found Aryan standing at the entrance, breathing heavily.
He must have expected an unforeseen accident, but what he found was me, covered in black smoke, extinguishing the last flames of fire.
"H-hey, Elder Brother," I chuckled nervously. "Am-am I in trouble?"
He came forward with hurried steps, his face unreadable.
"Oh crap! He's going to nag me to no end. What should I do to get out of this?" I thought inwardly and said, stammering, "I-I was only meditating, but then suddenly—"
Before I could complete my sentence, he immediately hugged me and surged his Soulforce outward, forcing the smoke out of the window.
"Are you alright, Raj? You didn't get injured, right?" he asked, his nervous voice on the verge of cracking.
It was the first time I had seen my brother this scared.
I tapped his back, accepting his hug, and murmured,
"Don't worry, Brother. I'm completely fine."
