The start of the training

After some pretty shocking discoveries, Zaho tried to calm himself

'I will not age as long as I'm here, does it make me immortal? isn't it the dream of all humans to be immortal? but now that I'm one, why don't feel anything special like happiness or excitement? '

'So happiness is related to our wishes and not what we process so what do I really want? what is hiding in the deepest parts of my hurt?'

As Zaho was thinking about this complicated subject with the innocence of a twelve year of child he started remembering the stories his mother told him about life outside of his village, he wanted to explore the world and make friends and just like that he fixed himself a new objective.

The next day Sebastian came to the room and started explaining

"There are many things I wish you to teach you and I estimate that it would take around 4 million years for you to master everything"

As Zaho heard that his face whitened and asked: "master you don't intend to let me stay here for this long do you ?"

Sebastian smile not responding after a few minutes he said: "You will stay here until you can leave on your own from this place"

"I will let you choose what you want to start from, In this universe, there are two major systems, One to strengthen the body to the point of destroying a planet with a mere finger, and another named Arkana witch will help you control the differents elements, the most commons are of course earth, water, fire, wind, light, and darkness"

"Of course there are more elements like space and time and few rarer ones but let not about it first once you master one of this major class, it basically will lead you to focus and understanding the Laws of the universe you are in to control and bend them as you wish. You will even creat new ones if you are skilled enough."

Zaho: "Master what level should I reach to leave this place ?"

Sebastian "You will have to master both the major systems and few minors ones that will be useful you like concocting pills which represent the knowledge on bending plants proprieties, Arrays witch is what was injuring you outside, there is a level nine powerful array outside that was made for training purpose"

Zaho knees felt soft after a slight pose he asked "... array what is an array master? I'm injured each time I get out of this house is it really for training purpose?"

Sebastian: "Yea.. it's just that you are too weak ?"

"Let's start from body training, it the easiest to learn and all it requires is training regularly and perseverance. There are few sets of differents body transferring energy methods witch circle the energy inside your body following a fixed path those differents routes will separate a good method from a bad one but as you have me with you you don't need to worry about that and just follow this knowledge."

As Sebastian explained he put his hand on top of his disciple's head. Zaho felt a new knowledge being engraved in his brain once the knowledge finished the transfer he sat down cross legged and started circulating the energy he felt every day in his body following the instructions he learnt.

after a few seconds, he felt his muscle contracting and felt pain as if he had muscle cramps everywhere on his body.

He wanted to curse at Sebastian when he suddenly heard: "No pain, No Gain". Reflecting about this sentence Sebastian said, and not understanding the deepness of this saying he decided to stay quiet as to not embarrass himself.

Sebastian: "why the hell are you sitting cross legged? I asked you to circulate the energy on your body not to meditate. Now get up you have to get used to circulate this energy 24/24 and 7/7 as to always train even when sleeping..."

Zaho stood up and effectively there was no difference circulating the energy whether in a sitting or standing position it even felt more effective to do it standing but the pain seemed to follow the same laws as it hurt a lot more now.

Sebastian: "The more your different muscle are solicited during the energy cirgulation the quicker is the progress, Now seems the right time to introduce you arrays". As he said that Sebastian started writing on the air in front of him and few glowing energy characters appeared where he was righting when he finished he pointed at Zaho.

Thee energy spined around Zaho before fusing with his clothes and he immediately felt more weight on him.

Sebastians: "Array are usually used to seal, hide or automate an object, it's a language that controls the environment adding new rules to it, I just made each an of you clothes the kilograms heavier to help your physical training you're welcome! "

Zaho who was still circulating the energy in his body felt pain accentuate, he even wanted to stop the circulation but he clenched his fists and bore with it.

Zaho: "master what about Arkana? how do I cultivate spells ?"
