Chapter 10: Other Uses of Banyu Geni

Chapter 10

Raka, who was at the center of the explosion, was terrified.

Fortunately, the explosion did not harm him.

Raka then looked at his hands with full focus, panting in awe.

"What was that?" Raka asked himself in surprise.

Knowing that it might be dangerous, Raka carefully checked the condition of his Virtual Resonance.

With this, Raka released his Virtual Resonance.

But when the virtual resonance appeared, there was no strange reaction at all.

Raka, seeing this, became even more confused. He then recalled the words of his teacher and remembered that virtual resonance cannot be released from the body at random.

What is displayed when using it or when called is only its projection. The virtual resonance itself always resides at the midpoint of the chest.

Thinking about this, Raka immediately closed his eyes trying to "see" the inside of the midpoint of his chest.

With this Raka could see a bed that looked familiar but also foreign.

Raka's bed was still as simple as before, but now there were illusory lines on every part of the bed.

The illusory lines were black and white, which looked faint against the brown wooden background.

If you look closely, the lines seem to depict a story from various figures. The figures are souls that exist in Banyu Geni.

Raka vaguely felt a subtle pull from his bed.

When Raka focused himself, he realized that inside his bed, there was a room. Its size is only one cubic meter.

The space was manifested as an under-bed space.

But oddly, the under-bed space was empty. Nor was the pull from that place.

Raka became more confused with this.

After searching long enough, Raka finally found the Banyu Geni entity that merged with his Virtual Resonance.

This unification was not complete at all, as if both parties were only undergoing mutualistic symbiosis.

Raka didn't care about the symbiosis, he was more interested in the pull that came from Banyu Geni.

And sure enough, after Raka paid close attention. He finally knew why his Mana count was not right.

It turns out that the eternal Banyu Geni needs energy to keep it going as fuel.

Not to mention the energy needed by Banyu Geni is quite a lot, which is very wasteful.

If you think about it again, if there is no mana, then Banyu Geni might automatically use its Life Force as fuel.

This could explain why the last person to be the host of Banyu Geni died young.

Raka couldn't help but feel a little creepy. If he had purified mana longer, he might have been running out of energy now.

Or Raka has the same amount of Mana as a normal human, he certainly can't withstand the consumption of Banyu Geni.

No wonder, the sword spirit consciously repaired the physical container, because Banyu Geni really drains a lot of energy.

Raka couldn't help but think that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Even if an object is so good, there is a price to pay for it.

After checking, it turned out that sixty percent of his mana was absorbed by Banyu Geni.

According to Raka's estimate, his mana is about one hundred percent more than ordinary people. So now because of the parasitic process by Banyu Geni, Raka only has eighty percent of the amount of Mana of ordinary people.

After knowing that, Raka was a little disappointed. But he couldn't do anything because Banyu Geni was tightly bound to his Virtual Resonance.

Because he couldn't do anything, Raka could only accept it passively.

Then Raka began to try to use Banyu Geni to know its effects.

When Banyu Geni was not released, Raka did not feel hot or cold when activating it.

But if he commanded Banyu Geni to focus on a certain part of the body, he could only feel the feeling of hot and cold with a strange burning and flowing sensation.

Raka didn't dare to try further on his body, afraid that he would reduce his lifespan.

After no longer playing on his body, now it was time that made Raka excited.

Because Banyu Geni has a high possibility to be used as a destructive weapon in the future.

With this, Raka sat down and focused on himself.

Several blue objects came out of Raka's fingertips. Along with the appearance of the object, there was a strong feeling of crisis haunting Raka.

Raka, seeing this, could only calm himself down and focus on controlling the energy output.

While controlling Banyu Geni, Raka also took the time to calculate the amount of Mana needed to use Banyu Geni.

After knowing, Raka couldn't say anything, because Banyu Geni was very wasteful of Mana.

Unconsciously, the remaining forty percent of his Mana was decreasing rapidly.

This continued until his Mana energy was completely emptied. Along with that, a solid blue object the size of a grain of rice floated in Raka's hand.

Raka, who had never used Mana before, had no idea that Mana should not be used until it was completely depleted.

With this, Raka immediately felt dizzy and pain in his head.

Because of the cessation of mana supply and the loss of control from Raka, the compacted Banyu Geni grain was no longer stable and began to churn as if it would explode at any moment.

Raka, feeling the danger while dizzy, hurriedly threw what was in his hand quickly into the air.

As Banyu Geni was thrown into the air, not long after, a loud explosion was heard accompanied by a very strong repulsive force.

Bang!

Raka, who was under the explosion, could only try to stabilize himself, while his body was pressed to the ground by the force of the explosion.

After the explosion stopped, Raka breathed a sigh of relief quickly.

The explosion was so powerful, it even vaguely resembled the explosive force of a grenade.

Raka was a little scared, if he was a little late, his hand might be gone.

From afar, the sound of fast footsteps was heard, after which Raka's mother appeared with full concern.

"What's wrong Raka? Where did that explosion come from?"

Raka, who had just calmed down, was surprised. Because he was too busy playing around with Banyu Geni, he didn't realize that his family had come home.

"Ahh it's okay, Raka was just playing firecrackers,"

"Really?" Raka's mother breathed a sigh of relief after listening to her son's words.

Raka, seeing this, just nodded in agreement like a chick.

After Raka's mother's face relaxed, she then showed her stern face again.

"Okay, be careful playing, don't play firecrackers in the house. Dangerous!"

"Yes, hu-uh," Raka said awkwardly, still thinking like a chick.

Seeing that everything was fine, Raka's mother went back to her activities.

Raka, seeing this, could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Raka thought that he was reckless. And have to be more careful after this.

But that didn't dampen Raka's enthusiasm. Because from the previous experiment, Banyu Geni was indeed a powerful weapon even though it was very wasteful of Mana.

If only he had good control so that he didn't waste mana in the process, maybe the explosive power would be two to three times greater than before.

With this, Raka couldn't help but feel that his future was bright.

Previously, Raka was a little annoyed that his Virtual Resonance didn't have any attacking skills.

Now Banyu Geni has solved that problem.

With this, Raka couldn't help but think that sixty percent of his Mana was worth it.

"Hehehe now who dares to underestimate my Virtual Resonance?"

"If there is, then you guys are ready to boom!" said Raka with narrowed eyes and a sly smile.

Unbeknownst to Raka, Lisa, who was told by her mother to call Raka for dinner, saw all her brother's evil laughter.

The shy girl couldn't help but think that something must be wrong with her brother's head after he awakened a bed-shaped Virtual Resonance that he didn't want.

With this, Lisa became a little reluctant to call her brother.

Fortunately, after a while, Lusi passed by.

Lisa hurriedly told Lusi to call Raka, while she left in a hurry for various reasons.

Lusi, seeing this, didn't suspect anything at all and immediately called Raka.

"Brother, come eat!"
