MIGHT AS WELL BE OP

"So, what do you really want by being here"

Ava asked as she smoked.

"I know it's hard to believe but I truly need nothing, I was once and orphan and this is my first time seeing an orphanage in some years so here I am"

Anthony replied as he drank the alcohol in one gulp, he didn't care to know if Ava poisoned it or something like that.

Things of those level won't even have effect on his body, talkless of his poison body.

Ava looked at him as he drank the alcohol without hesitation but didn't comment.

"I saw your living condition, while they might look standard for an orphanage, I dare say they are more than standard"

Anthony said as this as he brought out a whine directly from his system.

Poured himself a glass, then another for Ava with a smile.

Ava didn't say anything and just looked at the glass in front of her.

Although their living might seem harsh, to Anthony who was an orphan in his previous life, he knew that this orphanage was just too clean and spacious of some sort.

"This isn't like those orphanage that the rich run or sponsor which they don't really care about, I personally established this place from my own personal pocket with no single support and I've been running it for a while now"

Ava said as she decided to drink the whine Anthony presented.

She knew it was a big risk, but she took it nonetheless.

What Ava said was indeed true.

Hardly anyone ever cared about the orphans right from his previous world, and in this new world, it even takes a step further.

To many and most people, the orphanage was no different than a 'beggar' who they just have to give money in order to leave them alone.

So, even if the rich even possessed an orphanage home out of necessity, they hardly did anything really.

They just send money years or monthly or whatever and that's all.

And in this world, who could guarantee that these children in the orphanage homes aren't being introduced into something shady from a small age since children are still gullible at this point in time.

The orphanage home might just be a front for child trafficking.

And orphanage like this indeed exist, they test all children for potential, sell the low quality ones to people who came to adopt, but take away the ones who show promise to another faraway place in the name of 'adoption'

People like Ava were even rarer than the world's rarest treasures.

Establishing your own orphanage and running it single handedly with no single help, every single thing about the orphanage comes from the depths of your own pocket.

But who is to say someone like Ava wasn't a pawn for a bigger organisation who possess multiple orphanages and trained children behind the scenes.

But that would be impossible as something like that happening in the Academy Domain was no different than suicide.

Beside, even if someone was daring enough to even try, they have to possess great power, but with that kind of power doing something like this won't be worth your time.

But Anthony didn't need to rely on these things, Authority Of Information would lay everything concerning Ava before his very eyes, or his All seeing eyes could just do it, or his time magic could just do it.

But Anthony had indeed checked right from the moment he set his eyes on Ava, he just seen every single thing about her life and knew them to the smallest detail.

Even the amount of breaths she has taken since birth till now, he knew it all.

Not that Anthony wanted such useless information, but just that his brain subconsciously records such useless information.

So Anthony knew for sure, she did it out of the pure kindness of her heart as her mother once ran an orphanage but later died of old age and the orphanage was closed, but every single child found a good parent.

Growing up in an orphanage while not being an orphan made her different from others, she learned how to love children like they were hers, take care of them, she was also smart and truly relied on herself without help.

Ava awakened the darkness element while being paired together with an assassin class made her good with daggers.

She took quite a few assassination mission which she could perform on her level, while also adding a touch of other adventures like hunting beast, raids and dungeons.

Whatever money she made was used to fund the orphanage.

This also caused her cultivation to slow down considerably due to lack of resources as she diverts the money for that to the children.

But how is Ava able to handle all this alone with no single soul helping her, although as an awakened who is at the peak B rank, this is still too much.

This is where her talent comes in.

Like stated earlier, awakening talents are so random that even the strongest man and the strongest woman could literally give birth but wouldn't guarantee a talent.

Although the child would be talented in sword or magic or whatever due to his/her lineages.

Ava's talent was 'Clones'

Ava's talent gave her the ability to create three clones but with different combat power.

The first clone she creates out of the three possesses a hundred percent of Ava's skills, this was almost no different than her twin.

The second possesses fifty percent of her skills, which is basically half her combat power.

The third possesses twenty five percent.

Ths is how Ava is able to take care of everything at same time, even if she is tired, her clones takes care of something she was meant to do.

But her talent granted another ability that was quiet good....if not broken in the right hands.

She could summon her clones directly to wherever her real body is and the three clones together with her can communicate telepathically between themselves only.

So if Ava is completing an assassination mission and her and the opponent stand equal in strength.

She could literally just summon her first clone from wherever it went directly to her location, basically doubling her power.

But her talent came with a downside that wasn't even really a downside.

To cancel out or rather deactivate the first clone after it's done with whatever, she would need to first cancel the third clone, then the second, then the first.

This basically meant the rest had to disappear just for the first clone to disappear.

And if the other two weren't done with their own task, well that would be troublesome.

But again, this wasn't even worthy to be called a downside.

There were other ways to manage this, besides cloning wasn't exactly rare or anything like that.

It existed in techniques, arts, skills and abilities.

It's just their application that differs, like the duration, cool down, power possessed by these clones and other things.
