By the age of sixteen or seventeen most humans in the card world reach 10 percent active soul control and awaken as card apprentices but then there were a few who awaken faster than others and then there were those who awaken slower than the rest. However, as they continue to grow old over time sooner or later they will achieve the requirement of awakening, like in Susan's case.

But then there were mortals like Clara Cassidy, she was in her early sixties and her active soul control was still at four percent. Her chances of becoming a card apprentice in her entire lifetime were nonexistent. It took her sixty years to achieve four percent active soul control, that was like twelve and half years for one percent of active soul control. This meant she needed another seventy years to meet the requirements of awakening. Considering that the average life span of mortals was about eight to ninety years old, following the natural order of things Clara would never be able to awaken. It was never meant to be. It was best if she did not hold her breath on it.

However, Clara was about to awaken today, amidst the people she loved. Becoming the miracle they all sought.

Wyatt's six slave consciousnesses came together and concentrated, giving their all to precisely manipulate the soul energy in Clara's soul introduced by the high-grade silver milk powder pill. They accurately followed the soul cultivation knowledge sorted by the Hive AI to help enrich Clara's soul increasing her active soul energy control to not only meet the minimum requirement of awakening but also go further.

The large amount of soul energy introduced in Clara's soul was finally stabilized by Wyatt's six slave consciousnesses. Then they circulated it following the instructions of the Hive AI enriching Clara's soul slowly and stably increasing her active soul energy.

Soon Clara, herself, began to feel her active soul control elevate which was impossible unless one had achieved ten percent of active soul control minimum. It was thanks to the advanced soul-nurturing method Wyatt's slave consciousnesses were using to enrich her soul. When Clara awakens she was in for a lot of surprise. Because the method used to awaken her was not simple and she stood to gain a lot of benefits from it.

4% >> 5% >> 6% >> …>> 10%>> 11%>>...

Sensing Wyatt effortlessly manage to increase Clara's active soul control percentage to meet the requirement of awakening the already shocked Field Marshal was astounded, she felt as if she was dreaming. Noticing that Wyatt did not stop there but continued to increase Clara's active soul control further she felt her knees go weak and with a 'thud' she fell to her seat in utter disbelief. In the whole dining hall, only she knew what Wyatt was truly doing.

,,,10%>> 11%>> …>>18%>>19%

Bring Clara's active soul control to nineteen percent Wyatt stopped and asked his six soul consciousnesses to help Clara hold the access soul energy in her soul. As he had other plans for the remaining soul energy.

It was not surprising that there was still soul energy left after elevating Clara's active soul control to 19%. A high-grade pill was enough to help a Card Lord practice their active soul energy, the power contained in it was a lot, and the pill would prove deadly even for an average card master and card grandmaster if they consumed it carelessly.

"I think I can contract a grimoire now!" Surrounded by floating heads and arms, Clara exclaimed, opening her eyes. They were teary, as she could not believe she had awakened. Though she had given up on ever awakening, she always hoped that one day she too could awaken like the rest.

Wyatt nodded at her with a gentle smile. Then, he took out a silver grimoire and passed it to Clara saying, "Here, contract it."

Clara did not take the silver grimoire, instead, she looked at Wyatt and said, "It's a silver grimoire."

Even though Clara was a mortal till now, she had the basic knowledge of becoming a card apprentice. She knew only the talented ones could contract a silver grimoire after awakening but a late bloomer like her could contract the bronze grimoire.

"Trust me," Wyatt assured and pushed the grimoire into her hands.

Holding the Silver Grimoire in one hand Clara dropped a drop of her blood soul on its cover to initiate a soul contract with it, to her surprise as her blood came in contact with the grimoire, the grimoire shined brightly and started to hover in front of her as it slowly opened and revealing her status page to her.

"Impossible," multiple voices uttered together seeing Clara manage to contract a silver grimoire on her first try.

Not only that once Clara contracted the silver grimoire it helped her use the excess soul energy in her soul to increase the active soul control to 27%, helping her become a high-level card soldier in a single bound. Completing his job Wyatt recalled his floating arms and heads.

"I gained a trait, Soul sensitivity. I can feel the soul of everyone in the hall," Clara revealed to Wyatt aloud in shock.

"Soul Sensitivity!" Field Marshal exclaimed and rushed next to Clara, without her permission she checked Clara's grimoire to see if the trait Clara had received was the same as she was thinking of.

[Trait Name: Soul Sensitivity

Trait Type: Innate

Trait Effect: The user is sensitive to souls and their intent.]

"Impossible, how can a late bloomer have the potential to become a demigod?" the Field Marshal exclaimed aloud losing all her grace and elegance, that she had practiced and trained for centuries. Because, being able to sense the intent of other souls was something only demigods could do because of their intent sense. But Clara, a late bloomer, had awakened it as her innate trait. Proving that she had the potential to become a demigod.

The Field Marshal looked at Wyatt with complicated eyes, as he basically turned a lump of coal into the most precious diamond.
