The area near the lake was very peaceful there were very less monsters here for some reason so Alfin had to go very far from this area for hunting monsters. He had still not tasted the honey as he was waiting for the night he will have it after dinner, every time thinking about honey made him drool but he was keeping it as a sweet dish.
The jungle fire has not spread in this area because of less number of trees but it was not same for the other areas more than one fourth of the jungle has burned because of him and he had no remorse for doing it. As it has also decreased the number of monsters and this was a good news for the world where the portals were opening.
Finally the night came and Alfin had his dinner and was ready to devour the honey, he ate all the honey in one go. It was so sweet and tasty that he got goosebumps, and slowly he got a warm feeling throat going down to his stomach. This was the honey which was made from god knows how many monsters essence and he drank it all in one go, he slowly started to fell asleep and was finally knocked out cold by the honey.
The next morning when Alfin woke up he noticed that he was smelling very bad and there was black goo all over his body, he took out all his clothes and jumped into the water and washed himself thoroughly. When he got out of water he noticed that his skin color has changed to fair from brown and his body was also feeling a lot lighter. When he saw his reflection on water he was stunned to see that he was almost ten year younger and also his body has shrank.
Alfin's muscles on which he was so proud has also shrank but he had also become shredded, he had become lean from being bulky. He was astonished to see the changes but there was more to the changes which he noticed a little later, he was feeling the strange bluish energy inside his body which he could move all around inside his body on will, the energy was stored inside a small sphere inside his stomach, he thought for a while what it should be called and called it a bank as it was storing this energy.
Alfin than started experiments to figure out what this blue energy was for, he tried to force it out of his body but was unable to do it as it was too less and he started feeling exhausted as the blue energy was depleting. It took him some time to figure it out a little, he found that it could reinforce his body and could make him stronger and to replenish this energy all he had to do was to breath readily for half an hour it would be full again and the bank got a little bigger every time he filled it again but it was a very painstaking process.
He called the blue energy the aura force, when he reinforced his body with aura force he would become fast and strong and it will depend on how much aura force he used. When forced out of his body which he was still not able to master would be like a energy ball which will create explosion on contact. Alfin also noticed that he could also reinforce his weapons with aura force and it will make the weapon more durable and will also increase the damage caused by it.
Alfin was busy for many days to figure out the wonders of this aura force, he was also able to change its nature to red by adding his killing intent with it. As he has killed so many monsters his killing intent was overflowing and his body was not able to contain it, if his killing intent went berserk one day he would be on a killing spree.
After adding killing intent to the aura force it increased the destructive nature of his attacks and was also a good way to went his killing intent as it would alert the enemy if was not in control. Killing intent was also very useful in some situations to strike fear in his enemies and the weak willed enemies could also faint from fear. He had to do a lot of meditation to keep it in control. When mixed with aura force it was so destructive that it could kill a person just by directing it towards him.
But it will take a lot of Alfin's time to master the aura force and mixing killing intent with it successfully, all he had in this world was time so he had no problem to practice it even for years. He was very excited to master it and increase the capacity of his aura force bank, he got something to keep himself in this world for some time and he was also very happy that he got some supernatural abilities.
