"Master! Please help me become stronger!!!!"
I can see that she was confused that all of a sudden, i asked her to help me become stronger.
She was speechless but then chuckled.
"You're a strange kid, you know that?"
She paused for a while and said
"Okay ill train you but in one condition"
I quickly responded
"I would do anything!"
She smiled and said
"You have to come with me and hunt down mamons on the pillars dungeon to carry my sage fruits on hunting days. Is that ok with you"
I've never been on a pillars dungeon before and never imagined to step a foot there. I was scared because i was still a 10 year old kid and those dungeons are full of mamons but i nodded because i wanted to become stronger to find haru. At my current state i know i wouldn't find haru. So this is the only way!
"Yumi Mizuki"
she said while blushing
I looked at her with my confused face.
"That's my name! So don't call me master, stupid kiddo!"
She shouted while blushing and rolling her hair with her fingers
"I'm Lien Mazoku"
I smiled
The next day, we went outside her home and the location seemed to be on a middle of the forest. We then walked for an hour and arrived at a peaceful pond but normally i would be so exhausted by walking this far but for some reasons im still completely energized.
We stopped on a flat spot and she opened the palm of her hands, a mini hurricane started forming on her hands.
Yumi glanced at me and started preparing stuff to teach me.
"This is elemental ability, elemental abilities is one of the geazmo core abilities."
Yumi then sat down on a rock and continued
"A weak hui human like us wouldn't be able use this kind of abilities unless you have a proper training."
I was surprised that she was also once a weak hui person, i didn't imagine that a weak hui person could be so strong as her and be a geazmo
" I wasn't able to manifest this ability as if i am born with it. Im not like those gifted hui brats. I also trained so i could use it to protect the one i-"
Yumi paused for some reasons
I didn't ask yumi about why she paused because it seemed to be something related to her past. I picked up a pebble and threw it at her.
"We came here to train not to remember our dark past so cheer up"
i was trying to cheer her up
Yumi smiled
"Anyway where was i, ok! Let's start with the basics"
We then trained for hours and hours after training continuously we decided to stop
Yumi then took out a clear orb and threw it at me.
It was so fast but i managed to catched the orb and she was surprised.
I glanced at her and saw the serious face she was showing, she felt completely like a different person.
"Lien, sit down and close your eyes while focusing all your energy into that orb"
I followed what she said and focused all my energy to the orb. Surprisingly i felt a strange similar to what ive felt at the forest when i found the black sage fruit. I calming wind, it's breeze is so gentle and all of a sudden there was no noises.
I opened my eyes and i seemed to be in a dark room. I looked around and saw nothing but a unending black space.
"Wooooosh"
A cold breeze waved onto my skin causing me to feel uneasiness.
