*Swoosh* The raging sounds of the waterfall could be heard, drowning out all other noise except for maybe the incessant clicking sounds of the insects.
And right under this humongous 200m waterfall was a boy about 7-8 years old in his birthday suit, sitting in a crossed legged position and staying perfectly still and relaxed, as if taking a much-needed shower instead of being crushed under the impact of the monstrous waterfall.
"Hmm, apparently my roar doesn't work in this body…why might that be? Is it because the physiology is different from that of a tiger? No! that couldn't be the only reason, one of it maybe but even other tigers couldn't do my roar, so physiology isn't the issue.
Is it because I'm not strong enough? Hmm, could be, as I was a Tier 1 beast when I created my first roar 'Roar which vaporizes even the seas!'. Either that or…" Suddenly something seemed to flash "Yes! That's it! Why didn't I think of it before!" Suddenly Celes stood up. Almost going Archimedes all over again
"Sound! The reason the roars do what they do is due to sound. Me being a beast didn't really have to think this through as it came instinctually. Even then when I had tried to find out the reason, I thought of sound, however, I had no luck. In fact, even now, I wouldn't have found out had it not been due to that soul's past life's memories. In a world called earth, a scientifically oriented world, which lacks in the cultivation of spiritual energy-related matter, even cubs knew that sound was basically vibrations of particles. In fact, many other things such as transfer of heat also occur due to vibrations!"
Celes was utterly dumbfounded when he realized how simple the reasoning behind how his roar works were. However, little did he realize that the only reason he understood what he did, was due to his high comprehension, after being born as a human.
"So…basically when I roar, I am affecting the vibrations of the particles around me such that my desired effect occurs? Like for "Roar which vaporizes even the seas, I have to vibrate the particles fast enough to transfer enough energy to heat up my target to ash? Shit!" Just because one understood theory doesn't mean one could give results in practice. For example, just because you know the rocket science equation, doesn't mean u can launch a rocket, you need to factor in various changes such as other satellites, wind speed, the shape of rocket, etc. etc.
"Can't actually believe my brain was processing millions of these IRL factors without me realizing. No wonder I could do this only when I reached Tier 1, else my brain would have exploded from the overload of work and calculations."
Well, as you guys can guess, the next few days went by with Celes trying to replicate his first roar. Which obviously related in him vaporizing the 100m tall waterfall.
"Damn!! Even after all this hard work, all that I could do was vaporize a 100m tall waterfall. When I first created this roar, I accidentally incinerated a 1-million-meter-wide and who knows how deep, sea. Hence its name." Complained Celes "Though I will have to come up with a new name, as it doesn't roll off my tongue as it used to. Damn, it was convenient when even a paragraph could be described with just a long and loud roar. One of the drawbacks of being a human, I guess. How about I name it 'Incinerating Roar' the roar part where I actually roar which in tiger tongue means 'Roar which vaporizes even the seas' thus paying tribute to both my human and tiger parts, plus it comes out as 'Incinerating Roar which vaporizes even the seas'" Celes gave a smug look, feeling satisfied with his, utterly non-existent, naming sense.
"Finally, I can leave this shithole…Almost thought for a moment that I was going to die by my stomach bursting after taking in all that water when trying to incinerate the waterfall." Said Celes out loud as he jumped from his seated posture, or well…tried to. Only to trip and fall flat on his face.
"Oh yeah! I forgot in my enthusiasm that my legs are yet to heal after almost overworking them to scraps in that little incident" Celes' mood considerably worsened when he remembered about a certain overgrown lizard and fox combo.
Once again Celes got up, albeit a bit more slowly and calmly. He then bent forward and did a handstand and continued walking (AN: or should it be 'handing'?) like that to prevent further strain to his already worn out legs.
He traversed most of the area, he was washed unto, like this. He mostly came across regular beast which he made short work of and steered clear of any ranked or Tiered (yes, he came across a Tier 1 beast's nest) beast's territories as they tend to be extremely hostile to any intruders and he was in shape to fight a rank 1 beast, much less a Tiered one.
However, everyone has their fair share of bad luck. Well, His came in the form of a rank 5 beast, a 3-year-old black jawed Liger cub.
