The man looked at Kai intently and then said, "Here is my daughter. Marry her please!"
"What?!"
Lexi Montreal furrowed her eyebrows as she looked father, then she smiled and looked at Kai, "Let's start over. I am Lexi Montreal and this is my dad Jacques Montreal."
When she said that Kai finally remembered who he is, 'No wonder he looked so familiar. He is the former Duke of The Lightning Clan. I didn't know he had a daughter...'
"I want to be Queen one day and as you know a partner is needed to achieve that goal. Anyway, I'd like that partner to you. I heard you want to be King... I have done my research on you and I have to say, I like what I see. You graduated first in the world. You have a current PI of 2400 which is just insane and now you are a 3rd generation surpasser. Oh and of course the most important of all, you are a lightning wielder like me. Your resume is looking rather impressive if I may add.
Kai nodded his head when he realized why they were here then he removed the ventilating machine from his mouth because it was hard to talk with it on, "I appreciate that and I am flattered but I take matters concerning my future very seriously. So forgive me if I sound rude but I am not going to just impetuously accept. As you said, I do want to be King and the Queen I choose needs to be strong too. Now it seems you know a lot about me but I know nothing of you... So you wouldn't mind showing me your PI and your academic history, would you?"
She smiled, "I wouldn't have it any other way." Then she looked to her father who reached into the inner pocket of his blazer. Then he took out two pieces of folded white paper. He unfolded it and gave it to Kai.
Kai looked at the papers and saw that it was certified and stamped by the lightning clan showing the legitimacy of the results. Then he began reading, 'Lexi Montreal, second generation surpasser, 18 years of age, current PI of 2000. Enrolled at Strera Academy at age 6 where she graduated top of her class from age 7 onwards. Lexi Montreal has always been a talented individual going through multiple talent growths which kept her at the top of her class. However, she really started blooming at age 11. Suddenly as if out of nowhere her strength increased while she was going through a talent growth. Having no prior experience to explain this phenomenon, 'Dramatic Growth (1)' was coined as the term for it.'
Shocked, Kai raised his eyebrows involuntary, 'She is so talented they had to create a new word to quantify her rate of growth.' Then he continued to read.
'As only to add to the testament of her talent, she awoke as a Beginner Rankles at age 16. She is currently still a Beginner Rankles...'
Kai dipped his chin to his chest and pressed his lips tightly when he saw she was still a Beginner Rankles despite going through metamorphosis 2 years ago.
Seeing Kai's reaction, "You must be at the part where it says I'm still a Beginner Rankles despite having 2 years to rank up."
Kai nodded his head.
"Well you see, a study revealed that surpassers who awoke before the age of 18 and ranked up are more likely to die early due to natural causes. Because they went through too many changes that the body could not deal with yet. This is also one of the reasons that it is illegal to sell Zolma meat to anybody under the age of 18. If someone is to become a 1st generation surpasser before the age of 18 they are not praised for it. Instead are sent to a surpasser juvenile penitentiary. So in order to give my body time to grow, I have stayed at Beginner Rankles. Instead, I have been practising how to control my powers for the past two years. That's why my PI is so high."
Kai smiled when the misunderstanding was cleared. Where Jacques Montreal was frowning, 'Of course Drauton didn't teach you this. What else don't you know?'
