"Ugh ... what's going on? Why does my head feel so dizzy? It was dark already"
"Fa'i you awake? Good riddance. Here, drink" Jes'ka said as she gave him a glass of water, fa'i began to sit on the bed and drank a glass of water
"you bastard. What are you doing ha? "Asked the old man as soon as he saw him wake up. He came carrying a gray wolf on his back.
"Meaning?" said fa'i not understand
"Wait, do not tell me you do not remember anything. Tell me what's the last time you remember?"
"I remember the last time? Umm ... I was meditating under a waterfall. By then I could feel the energy of nature around me. Then suddenly, I felt a great natural energy under me. I started trying to detect it. then, once I realized I've been here "
"You do not remember anything after that?"
"No. What happened after that?"
"You're possessed"
"possessed?"
"Yes. You're acting strange at the time. In fact, hundreds of wild animals follow you"
"Oh yes? hmm .. but there is one thing that makes me confused. Why don't I wear my underwear? I feel weird down here" he said while holding his intimate area. Neither of them answered. The old man was busy with his cooking, while Jes'ka cursed himself.
"Whatever it is, you're ready with Ki training"
"Is that still not enough?"
"It's just a way to feel the ki in you. Like the manna thing. If you can't feel it how can you use it?"
"So we're going to change our training agenda again?"
"Not much. You still have to meditate so you can use your inner ki optimal. Enough with brass tacks. Now we eat first. Jes'ka, prepare the other ingredients. We will cook the gray wolf"
Shortly after that, the routine fa'i becomes easier. He was just doing the meditation, and the rest are looking for their own style of fighting. Until finally the moment arrived. During the day, when the new fa'i finished meditating.
"Hey fa'i I think it's time you do it"
"really?"
The sun burned their eyes as soon as they arrived at the waterfall. Fa'I touched the big rock. He could feel Ki in the rock. He took a deep breath, then was silent for a long time. He started hitting several points at a moderate level of strength quickly. Until finally he took one hit with full force in the middle of the rock.
The rock was crushed. No, rather the rock broke. Not two or three. However, into tens to hundreds. The old man clapped his hands to see his pupil succeed. Fa'I's face looked so happy. He jumped for joy so knows that he managed to destroy the stone.
"Right now. You may go home. And you fa'i, you take this sword" he said as he gave him a black sword he took in the previous Iro store
"But, it's not even worthy of being called a sword"
"draw the sword!"
Fa'I also drew the sword. As before, there were no blades. Fa'I even tried to touch the blade that wasn't there, in case it was transparent. However, only empty air he touched.
"No, nothing"
"Think about this. What do you want it from a weapon? Weapons to kill? Or arms to protect?"
weapons? I always thought, a good weapon is a weapon that is able to protect what is there. Not frowning what is "
Suddenly, the sword emits the light. Then, there was a kind of little white spirit circling him. The blade melted, as did the scabbard without losing its light. Then she began to melt up to something different. A shield (previously the scabbard) and a Broadsword (formerly sword without blades).
"That sword will give you the weapon you want. Even what you need. As long as it's still in the form of a sharp weapon"
Fa'i and Jes'ka stunned by what they saw. Fa'i began trying to swing his sword.
"This sword feels light. But I wonder why the shield feels light" he asked
"If it's like that, let Jes'ka hold it. So you can try the sword"
Fa'I gave the shield to Jes'ka, but as soon as Jes'ka held it she staggered forward with objections. Fa'i restrained him by holding his shoulder.
"Are you ok?"
"This ... is quite heavy."
"This sword is a special sword for ki users. This sword is fed by Ki so swiftly, that for a ki user any weapon will feel so light. And vice versa for a mana user (magician), any weapon will feel heavy."
Fa'i take back the shield held Jes'ka. He looked at it carefully, and found a cavity that looked suitable for a sword holder. He tried to put his broadsword in there and it did fit. The sword stands proudly with a shield as a buffer.
Not long after that the sword returned to its original state. Fa'I gripped the sword tightly "I can't wait, what will this sword become?" He thought. And unexpectedly he heard a voice.
'Instead of being what I am, but it will be what we later'
Fa'I was taken aback by one more surprise. He asked the old man about this, but the old man had never heard of it. Fa'I began to think that the sword was speaking. Although it was not quite right. And fa'i would find out later.
