training
[hmmm]
waking up with a stretch from the nice nap I looked to see how the flower was doing.
[looked like you took some of the fire mana that I attracted]
I said with a smile seeing how its flames were livelier than before.
[so your awake, hurry up and where this after that meet me here]
Elliot said while giving me a martial arts outfit that looked like rye's from street fighter but instead of gloves it was a white cloth to wrap around my hands.
when I touched the white cloth I felt it was somewhat special.
[hey Elliot these things aren't normal are they, I can feel they are special]
Elliot gives me a surprised glance before saying.
[so you noticed it already, it's true those have been enchanted to let your fire mana flow from your fists smoother allowing for less concentration on mana and more on fighting]
[that's it, I mean I can easily control my mana and it is always flowing thru me so these are practically useless for me]
I said that but I still wore them as they looked cool.
[of course, they can also be used to defend against attacks, just need to put more mana corresponding to the attack you want to defend against, alright enough talk get changed and meet me back here]
[ok]
after getting inside to change I saw that errand and Edna were gone, I didn't think much of it and left soon after I changed, as I was leaving I saw a mirror and looked at my self for a bit and I got to say, this just makes me a whole lot more handsome with my abs and pecks sticking out a bit with my muscular arms I liked the look so much I just might keep it.
after coming out of the house I was immediately told to seat.
after sitting I was told to just close my eyes and breath at a certain rhythm, as perplexed as I was I still did as I was told.
after about a minute I felt my mana sync with my breathing and flow smoother than before, after 5 minutes the mana started to get restless and went around my entire body taking out what seems to be a blackish substance as this was happening my body kept getting hotter and hotter until it wasn't a warm current but a raging river of lava flowing across my body, any sweat would instantly evaporate making it looked like steam was coming of me, it was getting hard to breathe as I felt the extreme pain but I pushed thru and kept at.
after what felt like an hour the mana finally started to subdue, after my mana finally returned to its calm state I immediately collapsed on the dirt as that was the most excruciating pain I felt in my entire existence of being born.
after resting enough for me to stand I was bombarded with a smell so foul that someone would end up passing out if they weren't used to bad odors.
[Jesus Christ that smells like death]

.Elliot pov.

[Jesus Christ that smells like death]
after being awoken from my shock I stared at the boy as if he were a monster, I mean who wouldn't think that, in just one session he removed all the impurities in his body If that is not what you call a monster than I don't know what is.
before he could see my shocked face I quickly went to get a towel before throwing it at him.
[that is your impurities, now quickly take a shower before you make me puke]
[where do I take a shower]
[up stairs second room to the left]
after the boy left I went into contemplation of how to train him now, if his martial arts talent is as good as his magic talent he will be able to learn everything from me within a month, his talent is wasted with me.
[after he is done learning everything I can teach him he has to gain experience and there is no better way then adventuring but with his temper no doubt he would get into lots of trouble,* sigh* why could he not be like that young boy he is always so calm and logical hmmm why don't I test the kid's talent if it is good enough he will accompany him and make sure he stays out of trouble or at least think before he does]
after making the arrangements I went to look for the kid, someone should name him soon, just being called errand is quite pitiful.
while I was going to find the kid I saw Erinyes staring at himself in a mirror while doing poses.
[stop dillydallying and get dressed after that keep doing the breathing technique until I return]
after getting embarrassed he walked back to get dressed.
[he has been doing that ever since he finished showering, he said he has gotten more handsome and stronger, quite narcissistic]
I turned to look who said that and it turned out to be the kid who was starting from across the room eating some fruits he bought with edna while they were out.
[come here let me take a good look at you]
doing as he was told the kid came from across the room and stood in front of me.
looking into his aqua blue eyes I can't help but feel like I'm not staring at a kid but a calm pond as still as a statue and no matter what you do be it throwing a rock or using a wind spell it will always stay calm and steady.
[follow me we are going to go test your potential]
he definitely has a lot of potential for the water element.

.Erinyes pov.

while they were going to test errands potential I was sitting continuing the breathing technique I got from Elliot although it did not have the same effect as last time it still felt great using it and the more I do it the smoother my mana flows.
after doing the breathing technique for 10 minutes I got bored and started to try an idea I had.
[ok let's do this just got to hope it doesn't blow up in my face]
after saying that I started to rotate my mana core clockwise I did it slowly at first and become faster over time, after about a minute or so the phenomenon I wanted to happen where the fire element started to be sucked into me as if I were a vortex happened, now you may be wondering why I did this even tho fire element already gets attracted to me, we'll that is because why not, if I have a way to make my mana grow faster why not try it, well back to doing the breathing technique, I just wanted to test that theory but then I got another, one what if I do the breathing technique while using the vortex technique, after coming up with that idea I immediately tried it.
after trying it it did what I expected it to do, the fire element in my body flowing much faster than before and smoother while getting a constant stream of fire mana but in exchange, I felt pain in my chest that felt like someone lit it It on fire while my heart felt like it was pumping lava instead of blood, but I kept at as the only thing I wanted was power and if you want power you have to be prepared for a while lot of pain.
after an hour the pain started to become less painful and more soothing like I was reborn and held in my mother's embrace.
