Chapter 4 - The Planetary Fish? [ENGLISH]

Miguel's POV

It has been 70 years since Miguel found the "sea" and the "fish".

The fish is relatively peaceful, as Miguel had nothing to do these years he absorbed a lot of "blue light" of the best quality since he arrived here, with the passage of time his soul began to have slight changes, with the absorption of the blue energy that it is "filtered" through the aspiral and transformed into neutral energy, its soul began to change from a weak transparent to a golden one, the longer it was absorbing, the stronger its color became.

As time went by Miguel began to understand that the fish that is always sleeping is somehow connected to the sea, an example would be: Miguel's soul looks like a balloon with a string, if he had connected with the sea it would be like him string if it connected to the sea, at that moment it seems that the fish is trying to merge with the sea to become one, but the process is extremely slow.

____________________________________________

- I have been here for 120 years, after I entered it seems that I was trapped by some kind of "barrier" and I can't get out of this spiritual sea, the only thing I can do is absorb energy and watch the fish that hasn't even done anything in these last years - says Miguel

193 years after Miguel arrived

Miguel's soul seems to be undergoing a qualifying change, he went from a transparent balloon to an almost solid golden balloon and it seems that this change will make him go from "almost solid" to something better, at least.

207 years after Miguel arrived

Miguel has just finished with the qualifying change but something he didn't expect happened, the fish that was always sleeping opened his eyes and looked at him with a lot of hostility.

* Don't ask me what a hostile fish looks like, I don't know either *

When the fish opened his eyes and saw Miguel, he attacked with full speed, unlike Miguel who is extremely slow because of the high quality blue lights in this "sea" the fish is literally a fish in a sea, in fact its speed could be considered better than any animal he has seen before, if it weren't for the appearance of being a fish and the size smaller than a person's palm, Miguel would suspect if it was really a fish

With the sudden attack Miguel was left without reaction, and even if he reacted he would not be able to do anything, because the speed of movement here is equal to a turtle, the only thought he managed to have at the time was.

- well, he shouldn't be able to hurt me too much right? It's very small and since I started absorbing the energy around here my soul has improved - says Miguel

Less than 3 seconds after that thought appears, Miguel feels a pain in the lower part of his body, near the "string", when he realizes what happened he is in shock, a piece of the "balloon" was eaten by the fish!

Miguel is in shock, tries desperately to run from the fish but with such a mediocre speed he cannot even dodge the fish who will say run, desperate Miguel tries to use his neutral energy to transform into other elements (light / fireflies) and attack the fish.

But their quality doesn't even reach 1 thirtieth of the blue energy around here, he also tried to use the blue energy but it was useless, in fact it was like feeding the fish, desperate Miguel tries to use neutral energy to fix his body, after injecting the energy into the injured parts they started to regenerate but the eating speed of the fish was very high so it created an infinite cycle of eating and regenerating.

When this cycle happened Miguel realized that all sorts of pain he felt when he had a living body was nothing more than pinches close to having his soul eaten and regenerated, time passed in this endless cycle, the amount of energy he absorbed in those years it was a lot but not infinite and the speed of absorption of the spiral could not absorb enough, as time passed Miguel began to think that dying was better than such a situation.

After thinking about it, he gave up the idea of ​​regenerating and letting the fish eat it but whenever he was almost dead his body always "exploded" with neutral energy that regenerated it alone, only after such regeneration happened his soul became less golden and more resistant, through this almost infinite cycle that Miguel lost count of how many years Miguel's soul started to become resistant to the point that the fish couldn't eat instantly, after that situation the amount of energy spent started to decrease and the aspiral has managed to absorb enough that he does not have to worry about insufficient energy (which for him is not good news), after all this does not mean that the torture of being eaten and regenerated is over.

July 15, 2054 of the interstellar calendar

It has been 20 years since the evolution technique was made available to the public, when that technique appeared the world underwent great changes, with the passage of time, people started to create their own techniques, like fire magic, wood magic that uses water and earth as a base and other elemental spells, there are also some non-elemental spells like flight magic, which to use you only need to use your primordial energy that is in your body, put it in a place on your body and use your control over it to climb , some use it on their feet, others use it on their backs, more advanced ones until it turns into wings, but this method is not very efficient, obviously the one who has the best qualification to fly is the wind element, people from the wind element are more than 3 times faster than a person of the same level, with the existence of so many techniques appearing there are people who keep the techniques for themselves or for their family and there are those who sell them.

2 years after the evolution technique was made public, "magic" schools and martial arts schools started to emerge, the magic school focusing on general elemental and non-elemental spells and martial artists are usually those who use energy to strengthen the body to become stronger and thus be able to combine martial techniques with elemental energy.

____________________________________________

Within the federation, on Earth at a school of Magic called Magical Forger has a teacher teaching about forging weapons using primordial energy, with such a method it is possible to give the weapon a type of "skill" a bronze level sword for example, if the user injects energy, the energy will follow the runes that were made by the forger and will launch a "cut" of fire that he can use in medium and short distances.

The class has just ended and people go to the break to rest or eat, between one of the groups that are going to rest there is a group of 3 students talking about what the teacher explained in the class

- ah ... Studying runes sucks, I really wanted to be a fire wizard - says André

- who was born with a talent for metal? says Alexandra

- I like runes, the problem is that I wanted to make artifacts from the air element but the only current materials that can be used to rune are from the element Fire and earth (metals) - says John

- do what? The Earth has not yet generated consciousness so there are no quality materials, Mars only has these materials because they say that Mars was once a very prosperous planet millions of years ago and the planet was of a high level - says Alexandra

- speaking of Mars I heard that the Bherks managed to infiltrate the planet, if they manage to dominate Mars does not mean that they managed to dominate the solar system? If we lose Mars' resources before Earth is aware, doesn't that mean we're all dead? - says André

- don't be pessimistic, even if you talk about, what can we do? Are you going to take your poorly made gun and fight them? - says John

-How dare you speak badly of my sword? SHE IS ONE OF THE BEST IN THE ROOM - says André

Miguel's POV

- I don't know how many years have passed, I just know that I felt so much pain that I think I started to become tolerant - says Miguel

Over the years Miguel's soul has become so resistant that currently the fish can't even hurt him anymore, his soul went from shiny gold to a faded white, after the fish realized he can't eat Miguel anymore he came back to merge with the sea, although Miguel is extremely resistant he can't even scratch the fish, so he concentrated on meditating too ... 10 years ...

20 years ... 50 years ... 150 years ... 500 years ... And time passed like that, with Miguel absorbing the energy through the spiral and the sleeping fish trying to merge with the sea.

When Miguel was meditating like any other day, in a remote corner of the "sea" the barrier that held him in the sea was broken by force, when Miguel thought that he could finally get out of this place ..

An animal made of fire much like a peacock entered the sea, with its arrival in the blue lights began to evaporate at an incredible speed, like a drop of water thrown on a fire, when the peacock entered the fish that had done nothing since he could no longer hurt Miguel, opened his eyes.

On February 20, 2058 of the interstellar calendar, the Bherks dominated almost the entire solar system, humanity currently has only control over the earth and 70% of Mars,

On Mars, Bherk's territory

A duke of the planet shifura (The name of the main planet of the Bherk's)

He is talking to several military personnel about the next action to be taken against the land.

- I think we should dominate Mars first before attacking Earth directly, if we do not dominate Mars they will lose the materials for creating artifacts, that way it will become an easy victory because there are not many strong humans, sir Duke says a military man.

- I disagree, duke, we do not have to wait so long to end these humans, we will simply destroy the earth, we already have Mars that is rich in elemental ores - says another military man.

- What? Destroy the Earth? And how much resources are there? Although it is not a high-level planet, it can be given to our planet, if we destroy the Earth it can affect the quality or even destroy the planetary energy - says another military

- But ..

- Silence. - says the duke

- Get ready to throw the elemental beast into the core of the Planet - says the duke.

- WHAT? - answer the Viscounts.

- Sir if we were to put an elemental beast inside the Earth's core, the amount of energy would be immeasurable, we probably won't be able to keep the 30% of Mars on our territory anymore and if the elemental beast is killed by the Earth's consciousness that has not been fully awakened , or it fails to reach the core, the losses will be

- SILENCE, a planet that has not even awakened conscience to kill an elemental beast of fire? The beast that is going to be thrown in the nucleus is the one that is classified in 8th of the rank, although the planet is powerful he did not awake conscience, he just fights by instinct, make the preparations, evacuate Mars to avoid further unnecessary losses - says the duke .

- Military: ..
