The usage method mentioned by the King family former geniuses was quite ingenious to be honest, for water it was said to use it to slow the movement of enemies to achieve a similar effect of slowing down time, this would have the same effect of a bullet travelling underneath water the speed would obviously be reduced no matter how fast it was previously travelling. As for fire it was said to use fire as an accelerator to propel your own movements increasing your speed at that point. Although the effect wouldn't be as suburb as the original Hands of time, when used with law of time it was enough to deal with the stages before the demigod level as well as placing someone who was a tester in a top tier listing giving them the ability to fight anyone within the same ranks as long as there opponents didn't have access to a combat skill as well. Adam enjoyed Lucius shocked expression when he saw the notes, these notes weren't accessible to every member of the King family but specifically taken out by Adam in preparation for today. One must say that Adam held no punches when it came to given Lucius the best the possible resources necessary to succeed.
In regards of the skill being used by a tester with only the telekinetic powers who had yet to create a physical trait to hold an element, it was quite simple for the hands of time, create gauntlet or glove. All weapons created with the telekinetic elements carried with it the properties of the specific element. After understanding all of this , Lucius then began to create a set of gloves with his telekinetic force to his specifications, this weapon he would be creating now would be the ones he used throughout as his time as tester as once he had the image in his mind it would easier and quicker to form in the midst of a battle, this was due to the fact that other combat skills aren't available to practice due to both the secrecy of the skill to each family and the specification of bloodline so in all honesty Lucius had to be satisfied with this skill until he became a demigod or if by some miracle Adam could ascend within his lifetime. One must understand although was young the gap between a Stage 4 and 5 wasn't easily tackled at least even Adam no confidence himself to be able to succeed in advancing, this was why also a bloodline family had such power compared to other major families that didn't produce a demigod as they didn't have any combat skill available which limited their combat prowess. In regards to the gloves Lucius created one was bright blue while the other dark red, both had beautiful designs similar to the trident he formed before, this would have been a masterpiece if not for the illusionary vibe it gave off due to the telekinetic power being used in the form a gaseous state, Lucius looking at the designs on the gloves nodded. Adam looking on was somewhat surprised, it wasn't simple to form a structurally sound weapon weapon out of thin air especially for the first time the trident before could have been considered luck but now, not only did Lucius did it considerable fast it also looked quite realistic, except for its gaseous state.
Adam then told Lucius the process by which he would gain mastery with the hands of time, "for now you'll only be able to cultivate the first level, when you reach the rank of advance tester you'd be able to practice the second level. From then on each level corresponded to the stage you've reach. Hearing this Lucius nodded, the cultivation process of the Hands of Time, was rather simple for someone who had as much battle experience as Lucius, it was all about timing, the usage of the element at the correct time and at the right place would lead to the best possible outcome either slowing down your opponents attacks at the right time or speeding up your own attacks at best possible moment, this was all that battle experience in which Lucius had plenty of came in handy, thanks to his previous life persona spending most of his time on a battlefield . Although this was the case Adam still diligently spared with Lucius until it was noon, in which they exited the training room and had some lunch. At the dining table Adam asked Lucius if he had any questions regarding the skill. Lucius thought about it then asked something which was on his mind. "Grandfather if the first level has such a major effect would it really be necessary to cultivate the other levels"? Regarding this question Adam then waited for a while before given a response he believed to be the most appropriate. "As you continue to advance through the stages, the level of which a battle occurs changes as well, it must also so be said what you are learning currently is the most basic level of the skill, it isn't until you become a breaker and develop a physical trait that you'd see the Hands of time full effectiveness". Thinking up to here Lucius must say he underestimated this world, this skill alone carried with it traces of a law that gave it certain advantages than simply using the element without any special effects, this usage while it cost more mental strength improves your combat prowess to a frighten level if you're fighting someone whose on the same level as you. Seeing Lucius thinking about his answer Adam nodded, although Lucius was very intelligent and was true super prodigy, he was never complacent, he always asked questions when he wasn't sure about something, which only led to Adam's admiration towards Lucius to only increase. "Lucius I believe it's time you interact with children of your generation, next week is the beginning of the classes held by the family for talented children, although they are a little older than you, I don't think there is any issue". Hearing this Lucius nodded, although he had never met any other family members than his grandparents and parents, he understood the importance of family and acting as a part of a collective therefore he already knew how he would behave while interacting with them.
