San and Yue, especially Yue, were shocked; they had never seen anyone use physics to this extent before. It is easy to boost, but to increase the space, so that you can boost even beyond your limits, this man was a genius.
San thought to himself, "I underestimated this man so much, I didn't feel strong spiritual energy when I first met him, no wonder, he must have trained for yours and he must have put all his energy into his space, he is a monster, I must know, I must ask...".
San with a scared tone asked, "Mister... how strong is your punch if you use all the stored energy you currently have?".
Smiling and bringing chills to San, Yue and Atlas, who despite being so long with him, never seen this extent of his power, "My full maxed punch, could annihilate this whole Realm".
Atlas with a worried expression said, "Sir you destroyed the mountain, my father won't like this when he hears the news".
With a sarcastic voice, "Who destroyed the mountain, me, I just showed you my small punch and nothing more", Atlas pointed to the destroyed part of the mountain, "Please sir, it is not something to joke about, I am talking about-", Everyone was shocked, "About what?", Asked Aleksandr.
"What happened but I saw it with my eyes, it got destroyed, I saw it, didn't you guys", as Atlas looked at San and Yue, they were so scared, San told Yue, "With him, we must behave, this man is not a human, he is a monster".
After Atlas Left, San and Yue, went into the water and started to do what he told them, they focused on their energy and boosted their physics, especially the fist, they would boost and boost, till they had none remaining, as they got tired, they came back at the grass and took a rest, sometimes even sleep, Aleksandr didn't mind them sleeping, whenever they woke up, they would have eaten a lot of food, a lot of calories all brought by Aleksandr himself, foods that increased the speed of regaining their spiritual spirits, they did the same training for 30 straight days.
[30 DAYS LATER]
With an exhausting voice, "I am.. done", Yue laid on the ground being tired, San was continuing his punches, then Aleksandr came with the king, "Haha... my student you have done well, see my king he can still go, in the first day he couldn't even hold himself for thirty minutes, now he can go on for a full half-day, none-stop".
San heard the compliment, he didn't look at them, he was not interested in them, then the king stated.
"I am glad our efforts and trust aren't going in vain, it is obvious he is trying very hard, so Aleksandr, what martial art style did you teach them?".
Yue, San and Aleksandr looked simultaneously at the king, "Huh?", with an angry expression the king said, "You are telling me you didn't teach any hand combat styles and only taught him how he can increase his physical Powerlevel?".
Aleksandr went behind Yue and whispered, "He is scary when he gets angry, please protect me", The king Yelled at him, "You good for nothing, can't you do one thing right, he only has one month left, there is no more time to train him, just how do you feel, didn't I tell you teach him something".
Aleksandr with a kind expression answered, "Please your honour, calm down, I am a human, after all, we all make mistakes, we do not know what God has written for us, maybe what happened today will be for the good", The king calmed down and ordered him, "Sigh, whatever we can't turn back the time, take a shower in the lake, then take them to Alik, he will take the last month to teach them, the way of a sword", The king left.
"Well, that's new!", Said Aleksandr, "What do you mean?", Asked Yue, "Well he is never so easy to get to and he avoided using bad words", Stated Aleksandr.
Yue touched his hair and with a smile said, "Well it might be because of me since he consider me a royal guest or so he used to tell me in the past".
Aleksandr took Yue in the arm and closed it, "Thanks for your presence, you are my hero", "No problem man... just let me go... I can't breath".
[THE HOUSE OF ALIK]
Aleksandr entered the house with them, "Brother, you have guests, came and welcome them", Like a flash, he came before them and said, "Welcome to my house, my name is Alik".
San and Yue did not say a thing, they already knew the man, "Oh... it's you guys, didn't know you were coming today", Aleksandr with a surprised expression stated, "You are never like this brother, you must have miscalculated or something, knowing you, you sure had something to do, right?".
With a smile, Alik said, "Yes, Elder brother, could you please take my wife and children to their grandpa, I thought you will be coming tomorrow, so I was about to take them and prepare the garden for Training", putting his hand on Alik's shoulder, Aleksandr answered, "Of course, but please take care of them well, you have thirty days and you too please behave in his house, I will take my leave, I will be visiting occasionally, see ya", door slam.
Alik looked at them, down and up, with cold eyes, "Have you two ever wielded a sword", Yue answered, "Sometimes with grandpa, just to have fun", San answered, "Yes I have, I have pierced someone with it", "What the hell, did he say, he pierced someone before", "Good then follow me please".
In the garden Alik gave Yue a blade, San had his one, the ones he stole from Lived, "A dark Katana, where did you get it?", "Oh this, I... stole it", "What... San, are you by any chance a criminal?", "No...", Yue slowly started to feel unease, he thought to himself, "I can't blame my friend, maybe he had his reasons".
Alik then released energy on his sword and asked them, "Do you guys know we humans use blades to fight, even though we can manipulate elements with our bare hands, we can even generate with thoughts", San and Yue were speechless, they had no idea but an expression, to show.
"It is to have a better control, we humans fuse our ability with our swords, thus having a better control of it, it may sound stupid, why don't we just do it with hands, let's say for instance you generate fire, the fire has no power over you as long as you are the one who generates it right but the moment you release the fire and it makes a self berserk being, it will even harm you, what people don't pass down to the next generation, they use the blades or any other weapons, to generate the element and put a command on it...", San and Yue, had no idea about it, they were thinking, can you even command your abilities, they are not a living thing, "...You may think what the command is, let's say, for instance, you swung a powerful fire at a house but you know your family is also there, you want to save them".
San and Yue had no idea, what the hell is he talking about, they kept a closer ear and listened very well, to every word he said, "Our elements are living elements, even though they don't communicate with you, as long as it was you who commanded it, at its birth, then it will hear and obey, if I know my family are inside, I would command as I generate, ( Oh flames, you who devour and erase everything in your path, see the images in my mind and spare them), just by thinking about it, in a matter of a second, I can kill every bad guy in the building and save my precious family".
San and Yue were amazed, however, he did not show any proof so how would they believe it, Aleksandr and Alexie showed these physical proofs, that they could see and feel.
San asked suddenly, "Is everyone capable of doing this and what is your method of training us?", Alik stomped his sword on the ground and said, "Kneel", San got on his knee while Yue was standing, Yue asked, "What is wrong, San, did he do something?", San struggling he said, "Don't you feel it, it is as if the sky has fallen on my shoulders".
Alik then tells them, "You see, just like that, even though my attack covered all of my surroundings, Yue did not even feel anything and to answer your question, no only those who can manipulate their elements can do this, for those who only have the ability to generate, they must take their battle more carefully, not killing themselves and their surroundings".
San was released from the attack and stood up, "What about the methods, what will we be doing here for the month?", Alik answered, "Just like my brothers I have also my method, to learn this at a fast rate, you must swing at these doll men there, there a dozen of them, I want you to train until you will be able to damage the target behind the doll men, the targets are the dolmen with the x mark".
San and Yue observed it, San went to the dolls, Yue followed him, San's first try, "Flames of Sun", "I command you to slash the marked dolls", yelling, however, it did not work, Yue tried his luck too, "The Slash of Wind", it didn't work as well.
"Don't worry take your time, in a week, your elements will recognise you but to get to them, I ask you to imagine you are fusing with them, physically and spiritually, to finish the process faster, you can draw with your feet Palms, energy from nature, it tends to get you closer to your elements, it is like a bridge or a medicine that boosts the speed of closing the wound on your body".
San and Yue, heard what they had to do, they followed the commands perfectly, just like the other training nights and days, they tried their best to get better.
[30 Days later]
30 days of training, they finished, finally, they both managed to slash the marked dolls, without harming the unmarked ones.
Clapping, "Well done students, that's it for the training, today was your 30th day of training here, you must now prepare yourself to get back home".
San asked, "Can't we continue, with the training?", Alik answered, "I am not the man who puts the rules, I only Follow the orders accordingly, the order from Jin Jie was 3 months and that's it, prepare yourselves".
[HOURS LATER AT THE TOP OF TOWE, INSIDE THE DIAMOND]
San was brought once again in front of the blade of Jonah, everyone was present there, they will all witness if he is worthy after three months of training or not, The king nodded at him as San looked at him.
San with all his power, boosting his physical powers to these hands, didn't even shake the Blade, after boosting his feet and releasing the spiritual energy he had stored, the blade moved only a little, then San was thrown at Diamond's wall.
"I told you he was not worthy", Said Alexei, his brother answered him, "Well he moved it a little, it means he was close to worthy", the king raised his hand, meaning he would say something.
"According to our deal, you were supposed to be trained for three months under us and the brought here to see if you are worthy or not of the Blade, even though you were close I am sorry, the blade has rejected you San, you are not at the level that the blade wants you to be, you will directly be sent home today as the gate opens", The king then turned around and left, San being damaged mentally he whispered, "Please... chance... give me another-".
Yue with the sad expression thought, "San, I am sorry, these people are strict, the blade is their pride, the fate was three months, so that's it".
[AROUND AN HOUR LATER]
San and Yue were waiting at the point of the gate, since the long years, Jie had only opened the gate here, Atlas was with them, "I am sorry that it didn't work out well but I wish you the best in your fight against the-", San was looking down and answered, "No, it's okay, they warned me, that those bastard control my fate, past and future, it was all planned, they would not let me have a great advantage above them...", San looked at Atlas with a smile, bringing joy to Yue, "...However I will not give, I will find a way to beat them, I will either die as a villain in their story or live and die later as a hero in the eyes of kind people".
Yue was happy for San, then he asked Atlas, "When will the door open?", Atlas answered, "It should have been opened a long time ago!", San then said, "What the hell is the Oldman doing?".
[JIE'S HOME]
Jin Jie was vibing with the music he was hearing from the radio, while making food, he looked in the mirror and said, "Hahaha... your body may be old but not your heart, hahaha...".
[BACK TO ATLANTIC]
The king with Alexei, Aleksandr and Alik cane to San and Yue, "It is just as I thought...", Then Atlas asked, "Father what are you doing here?", "San and Yue will continue their training for another three months!", San and Yue were shocked.
Then San stepped up and asked, "What do you mean, king, do you give us another chance?", the king laughed, shocking San and Yue, said, "No, it's just we had a misunderstanding when Jie told you three months, he meant it from the main Realm, however, we are here in the Atlantic Realm, three months of Earth is six months here...", shocking them even more, San had no idea about the time difference, Atlas then stated, "You are right why didn't I think of it", Yue Slapped his forehead and thought, "I can't believe grandpa did it on purpose, he must have done this to show San how defeat looks like, so that he tries even better next time".
The king proceeded, "In other words, only 45 days have passed there, so do you get it to know?", San was surprised, "I can't believe this, is God giving me another chance to beat those bastards and bring them down from the heavens, Thank God".
Alexei then asked, "So guys, do you wanna take the chance given by fate or stay here until the doors open, I will wait at the top of the mountain, your arrival will be my answer", left Alexei with a smile.
San and Yue grabbed what they had in hand, then headed to the top of the mountain.
For another 3 months San and Yue trained, this time is even better than the last time, San and Yue were taught Kung fu and many different hand-combats, they managed to fuse with their elements better, they even increased their spiritual pressure, much higher than their first try, San and Yue, both had a body of abs and strength of the mountains, if used all power maybe could rival Aleksandr.
Finishing the training, "I failed last time to draw you out but this time you will come out for sure because I have found myself and my strength", San looked at his teachers, friends and The King, the king nodded, permitting him.
Unlike the last time, he is now a worthy wielder, he managed to draw it out, without a single problem, shocking everyone, they congratulate him and went to the standpoint, where the gate will be generated, as they got there the gate was there, San and Yue thanked everyone, when they came in for the first time, they were like in their early adult life without knowledge, but they left it, with knowledge.
As San and Yue left, the gate closed, the people Atlantic saw their bodies shine, they were smiling and in joy, the king looked at his hands and said to everyone, the soldiers, his son, the three brothers, "We finally completed the task that our ancestors long waited for, to find the man worthy of the Jonah blade, we will now become one with San, my people let's became worthy allies to our new King, San Druk".
All the inhabitants of Atlantic turned to dust, their physical body at least, their spiritual body, the soul, went inside the blade of Jonah, the blade San had in his back.
...
[LAND OF QIN, JIN JIE'S HOUSE]
In the garden Jie was standing, "Welcome home", San and Yue emerged from the gate, "Glad to be back", Said both.
San's new blade glowed making Jie say, "Welcome home, people of Atlantic", it was a Welcome since it been, a half-century that they were not on earth, but what does the glowing really mean.
The End Of Chapter 27/The End of Training Arc.
