Spirit Technique

The next day I got up and went towards the army courtyard.

On the way I was so excited about gaining strength.

I hadn't forgotten about my revenge. And this was my first step towards avenging my parents.

I had finally reached my destination. I went towards the place designated to receive novice guidance.

There was the same instructor present as yesterday. I went towards him.

" Sir, I want to receive the spirit technique."

After that I showed him my identity badge. It was something we were given yesterday.

After inspecting it he asked me to follow him. I complied and followed.

At an isolated room. He asked me to sign a contract. It was something related to non sharing or misuse of the technique.

He told me it was blood contract. And is signed by dropping your blood on it.

I was fascinated by it.

Nevertheless I decided to follow the instructions.

After that he transferred the method directly to my mind through an orb.

I bet it was the way of uniquely protecting the method.

I was getting curious but I ultimately refrained to ask about it.

Next he told me the military boxing technique. It was something basic that was given to every soldier.

He informed that if one wanted a better spirit technique or fighting method you can exchange it for contribution points.

Contribution points were something awarded through completing the assignments from the assignments hall.

Thinking that it was best to have a task picked up while practicing I went towards the mission hall.

There were many missions posted there. Ultimately I decided on a watch mission on the forests towards the southern parts of city.

I had to stay in that area for a month and in protect it from wild animals and report in case of any anomalies.

It was a very harsh mission. Also you have to stay there for a long time.

I really would not have taken this mission if not for the fact that I have been watched by the minions of John.

I felt him to be a narrow minded person and I was not wrong.

I want to practice with complete concentration.

And I do not believe that it would be possible due to him.

So leaving the city was the best course of action.

After taking the mission I quickly hurried towards the southern gate of city.

I was already having all my possessions and It is not wise to waste any more time.

------------------------------------------------

After half an hour.

I was finally back in the forest. Feeling the fresh air I was completely relaxed.

I laid down against a tree and recalled the spirit technique.

'Eagle Spirit Technique'

A grade medium white grade technique.

The name was simple and catchy but the technique was not. I felt it quite complex but after reading it some more times it was easily making sense.

I didn't know it was this easy. But on my way here I have listened how it was hard for the other recruits.

There could only be two reasons behind the situation.

First it must be because of my aptitude which is much greater than others.

Or the second it must be because of the Heart method.

I believe the former to be the most apt explanation.

Whatever, it doesn't matter. What matters is that I have a kickstart and I should properly utilize it.

Take a deep breath. And relax your whole body.

'Release all your senses to feel your surroundings.

Feel the energy present everywhere.

Try to connect to it.

Think of it as if it has always been present inside you.

Repeat the process again and again until you are finally able to feel the spirit energy.

I tried it once. Unsuccessful.

Looks like it will take many tries.

Next i looked at the boxing technique. it was much more simple.

'Eagle Claw Boxing'

Looks like the techniques came in set.

A low white grade art. Truly at the bottom. Still better than nothing.

I also started practicing it when I was tired of practicing spirit technique.

And so the endless cycle of living and practicing started in the forest.

And one day finally….
