The one in the lead was a man with a large body. His skin was bronze like Shuangtian's, just a shade bit darker, and he had dreadlocks that were colored purple.
Apart from his confident smile and small black stubble, he was quite okay looking. He was dressed like a fighter, with a purple t-shirt worn under a black leather jacket and black leather pants with spiked boots, the spikes being purple as well, while the boots were the same as his jacket and pants.

Beside him was a bespectacled gentleman who held a book in his hands. He wore a scholarly robe with gold and black highlights, and his skin tone was quite yellowish.
He was not too tall, at around 5'8'' and his hair was mostly oiled thickly, making it look shiny yet slimy. Minus the thin lips, small noose, and vulture-like eyes, this Leon fellow looked mostly learned.

This Andreas fellow was a sinister-looking bloke who wore a nobleman's attire of a gold button studded black jacket with a red shirt underneath, along with black, suede-like pants that ended in pointed leather shoes.
His skin was extremely pale, making him resemble a vampire. He also had the matching slicked-back black hair, crimson red eyes, and a mustache shaped like two needles along with a goatee.

The final male was a short, dwarf-like fellow who held two AK-47-like guns in each hand. His body was decked out on guns, and his leather-like armor was painted black, with many straps and handles to hold his weapons and ammunition.
He did not have a thick bushy beard but was clean-shaven, with hawkish-like azure eyes, a square nose, and a buttchin. He wore a frown as if someone owed him money.

Kirlia was a tiny, fairy-like girl with anime-like big eyes that shone with a greenish-blue color, a generally cute visage, and ahead large than her body. She floated in the aura, allowing his short yet wavy green hair to sway about.
However, no matter how cute and innocent she looked, there was a certain light in her eyes that betrayed maturity and age, despite her weak talent.

Next was a tall woman with rabbit ears atop her head. She had flowing white hair, a cute nose, and two black pupils that radiated emptiness and lethargy. Despite being a beauty, she looked haggard with black bags under her eyes.
She wore a long overcoat with fancy fox fur lining the neck area, as well as a partially open blue blouse that allowed her almost E-cup breasts to breathe freely as they stood atop her chest.
She also had a short cream skirt that barely covered her upper thighs, only really hiding her sweet spot at the front. However, due to her long overcoat, one couldn't see the lovely view from the back, but just looking at her waist-to-hip ratio, you could be sure she was packing some dumptruck-level glutes.

And the last one was also another relatively smallish female, who was riding atop a wave of water. She had dark black skin with strange tattoos all over her body, purple-colored lips, and two purple eyes that had slits like a serpent or cat.
Her short black hair shone darkly and her two large golden earrings bounced in the wake of her movement. She wore a bunch of bandages that only covered her B-cup breasts thinly, leaving the rest of her upper body for one to peruse, and a pair of tight booty shorts that highlighted her small, shapely bum.
Apart from being barefoot, another significant thing about her was her weird smile that was half-crazy, half-provocative.
Shuangtian only spent a split second assessing all of this before the group appeared before her. When they arrived, it was Hurst who was the first to speak.
"Greetings, fellow Eternal. My name is Hurst and I'm a Rank 1 Eternal in the Mercenaries Pavilion of Li City. May I know who you are?"
"My name is Shuangtian and I'm also a Rank 1 Eternal from another Plane. I am here to join the Mercenaries Pavilion and receive missions to acquire remuneration for my own purposes." Shuangtian explained calmly.
The faces of the Eternals changed when they heard Shuangtian speak. Leon, the one with the ExtraSensory Talent, directly covered his ears with a look of shock.
"What a heavenly voice! Is your Eternal Talent related to charm or sound? How potent!" He exclaimed suddenly.
Hearing him, Shuangtian shook her head. "I will not share my exact Eternal Talent, but it is neither of such things. It is mostly related to summoning."
Naturally, Shuangtian would not tell them about her Barbarian or Titan abilities, rather choosing to only expose her Elemental Golem summoning abilities. With her cousin, Shangtian, in golem form, she should be able to handle most threats since he had the Abyss Element and could generate his own Eternal-level power.
Even then, she could still easily supply him with more raw Bloodline Energy which would translate to more power since he was her summon after all. Not to mention the other Elemental Golems she could summon, she could literally create her own army of Eternal-Rank golems as long as she mastered her efficiency and could provide them with enough energy.
"So it's a natural biological feature? How envious." Helen muttered to herself.
Shuangtian glanced at her askance, which made the woman's heart skip a beat as she felt like she had been seen through, but she shook her head. How could this newcomer see things that even her so-called 'friends' had missed for years?
"Right, since you want to join, we're more than happy to have another Eternal powerhouse in our ranks. I just want to share some of the rules with you as well as some things to take note of before we continue with the registration process." Andreas stepped in with a cold smile.
He then spoke of some things in both categories while leading the group deeper into the building. Soon, they came to a relatively small chamber with white walls and some instruments all over.
In the center was a terminal that had a round orb floating above it, which was colored golden-white. The group of Eternals walked up to the orb and stood around it like guards.
Andreas led Shuangtian to the orb and then smiled at her, still very cold and affronting, but it seemed that this was his natural state.
"Now, we must assess your power as an Eternal. Please place your hand on the orb and then channel your power." Andreas instructed calmly.
Shuangtian's eyes flashed and a hint of interest grew in her. She walked forward and placed her hand on the orb, channeling her raw Bloodline Energy through it, which caused the orb to shine in a brown light.
This went on for about 30 seconds before it dimmed and the terminal lit up with a holographic-like computer screen that displayed information. The group of Eternals came closer to inspect it out of curiosity, and when they saw what was there, their faces changed greatly.
"What?! How can this be, HOW CAN THIS BEEE?!?" Kirlia screamed in a child-like voice.
"Impossible, simply impossible! I am not willing to accept it!" Hurst shouted as he grabbed his hair.
While the others were also similarly shocked and making exclamations of disbelief, only Helen and Riola remained relatively calm.
Well, Helen was pale as a sheet while her lips trembled while Riola's expression went from lethargic to lively, but with a hint of coldness and craziness.
"Hahaha, wow! Rank 10 peak Eternal Power, Rank 10 peak Eternal Limit! The only flaw is entry-level Rank 1 Eternal Control! Hahaha!" Riola laughed madly as she glanced at the screen displaying Shuangtian's power in the local system of this plane.
When she voiced it out, the other Eternals suddenly glanced at Shuangtian with pale faces full of fear and trepidation. While due to her Eternal Control, she was technically ranked 'Weak' or Rank 1 like most of them, it was only in terms of her skill.
Even if someone above Rank 5 fought her, they might not necessarily win. After all, Shuangtian was like a civilian holding a gun that fired small bullets with nuclear-level explosion power. Meanwhile, anyone at Rank 5 and above would be like a skilled military-trained person holding an assault rifle with bullets that exploded like rockets.
Granted, Shuangtian in this scenario would have shit aim and not be able to make use of her massively explosive power, but then again she didn't need to do so. Even if she just sprayed and prayed, the devastation would be enough to put the other fellow with the assault rifle and skilled aim to bed.
The problem was that, in this scenario, even if her aim was shit, it wasn't like she couldn't train it! That was the point of this trip and any Eternal knew that the hardest thing to raise was neither Eternal Control nor Eternal Power, but Eternal Limit!
For Eternals of this and all Planes, all they ever dreamed about were methods and treasures that could raise their Eternal Limit, no matter what price they would have to pay for that!
If they could get this boon that the World Will gave Shuangtian, they would literally do anything for it, because they could allocate Eternal Points to their Eternal Limit.
However, that was exactly why the World Will did this. Since they had perfect Eternal Power and Eternal Limit, it could easily help them raise Eternal Control up to a point. It was almost effortless on its side and it helped curry extreme favor with these fellows, so how could it not take this chance?
Back to the example, even if Shuangtian's aim was shit, she could take time to train it, so if one wanted to be her enemy, their best, and perhaps only, chance to kill her would be in the cradle!
However, likewise if one wanted to befriend her and ride her coattails upwards, one had to help her now, while she was still weak.
What choice would the various Eternals of this Plane make?
