Akuma wanted to get stronger as quickly as possible, so he woke up at 7:00, on thing he had learned about was my family blood-line and past is not normal he want too learn about the secrets of my family while also getting stronger, he jumped up out of his bed and made a "fwip" sound, ever since he was deviated of his emotions he had lost interest in literally anything beside cultivation and finding ways to learn about his family, he walked with a steady but strong pace to his backyard to start, as in the memories he received he would be training his body and strength right now, he sat in a cross legged position and started pulling in these unknown power strands into him he had no idea what they were or where they came from, so he tried thinking in on this cultivation technique and suddenly he got information that their were different levels of cultivation for day and night time each with 7 stages and 9 levels he would be cultivating

Currently he had no cultivation at all all he had was the mysterious boost in power from passing out the other night, so while he was in the cross legged position, He kept gathering Qi into his blood stream hoping for something to change…An hour later suddenly a boost in his strength occurred, he felt lighter than usual and his punches were swift and precise they even got faster, But he wasn't going to let this little power get the best of him so he sat back in the position and said no… i still have a long way to go if i want to be the strongest.

he closed his eyes and started cultivating again, he kept going until dawn, once dawn arrived he had made it to the 4th level of [Soul Blood Creation] He felt 4x stronger and wanted to test his strength, he quickly found a boulder that was 2x as big as him, he got his fist ready and shot a precise punch in the middle of the boulder, the boulder was completely shattered, you could see little pieces flying at every direction of the back of his house.

once that scene was over he had tightened his fist he felt like he had achieved some level his strength compared with the others at magic academy, but thats all he felt with his deviated emotions, Since the sun had gone down it was time to cultivate his Soul and mind, he sat back in a cross legged position and started sending Qi into his body, he wanted to gather ad much as he could to strengthen his Mind and have enough Qi to form a soul core.

He started gathering Qi into his body for the rest of the night until 11:00 he reached the 4th level of the [Soul Qi Gathering] stage, he also needed to to rest so he went inside his shabby house, took a shower, and brushed his teeth, he laid down in his bed and said, even though i have gotten stronger i have no real combat experience, so early in the morning i will go outside of this city and fight low level monsters that i can handle, but before that i need to but new clothes, but i have no money hmm… seems like i will need to take commissions with the clothes i have now and complete them before i buy new ones.

He went to sleep for the rest of the night and woke up at 7:00, He got out of bed and put on a different set of clothes, he walked out of his house and went to call a taxi to take him to the commission building, once he arrived he went to the board to look for a commission suitable for his level of power, while he was doing so someone was walking up to him, it was Jake his bully from grade school, he called out his name and Akuma turned around too see who it was.

once he saw his face however he had no reaction, Jake seeing the sudden changes in his attitude and appearance made him furious not only was he taller than him now he even beat him in looks, He even didn't have a reaction to his face, the commission building was filled with people with different levels of strength and the sudden instigation piqued everyones interest they all turned to watch what was the occurrence.

Jake said to Akuma you sure have changed with an annoyed voice but that doesn't mean your level of strength did, Jake through a fireball at Akuma it seemed like he gotten stronger because the level of fire power from this one was stronger and faster than the one he was hit with before, but it didn't matter Akuma was now stronger than Jake, so all he did was jump to the side swiftly, the fireball completely missed him, but Akuma didn't stop their he rushed towards him and through a right hook at Jake that sent him flying 3 feet back.

this reminded him of how he was launched back by his fireball, you could say this situation is kind of anticlimactic for Jake. He coughed up blood that splurged all over the ground, he was shaking while trying to stand up, but in the end he failed, he passed out on the ground with a hard fall, everyone looked at Akuma with curious eyes, some with hostility, and some with neutral.

Akuma simply turned around and went back to the commission board, he finally found something suitable for his level of strength, the commission was, defeat 5 level 2 Earth wolves and bring back each of their 2 fangs, he quickly grabbed the commission paper and went to the front desk to assign it to him, the lady in the register said welcome sir is this the mission you while be taking?, Akuma gave a simple nod, the lady got a stamp and stamped it on the paper, he took the paper and put it in his left pocket and quickly left for departure

Once he arrived in the forest he quickly jumped atop of a tree and started scouting the area, after-all he didn't want to come across foes he couldn't defeat yet, but in the future he would face monsters stronger than him on purpose to gain more experience, but right now was not the time he had no weapon or combat techniques to use on them,he had no idea of what weapon he would use though.

in the memories of the soul reaper race none of them used swords they all user weapons he had never seen before, but now wasn't them time he needed to be worrier about that, he started jumping tree to tree to find the earth wolves, in the description of the commission, earth wolves are brown and have hazel eyes they usually are found where their are alot of rocks, these wolves can manipulate a bit of earth to shot at their enemies and reinforce their body to a little extent for a little defense.

the weakness of these species of wolves were their speed, they were slower than even normal wolves, so it would be hard for them to dodge from attacks, once Akuma had reached an area like the description to his surprise their were exactly 5 earth wolves their, he jumped down of a tree below them, mid air he threw a punch at ones of the earth wolves, the wolf flew back and hit a rock that was his size, the wolf twitched trying to fight back but unfortunately it died.

the others earth wolves were obviously alerted and attacked him all at once, akuma jumped back, and dodged the rock attacks being shot at him, akuma having no weapon and longe range being his weak spot for now swiftly rushed at the wolves while the rocks stopped shooting, he grabbed one of the wolves by the leg and started spinning the wolf around, he threw the wolf at one of the others, and they collided together, the impact killed them instantly, and both their lifeless body laid rest on the ground.

The two remaining earth wolves were hesitant to start fighting back, this gave akuma an opening to attack first, he rushed to them like he did to all the other wolves and picked one up again and threw them at the last remaining wolf, they both died again, akuma wiped the sweat off his forehead and breathed in for a minute, he walked to the wolf that collided with the boulder and ripped out its two fangs, he then walked to the too the other wolves that collided first and ripped out both of their fangs.

he did the same with the other ones, then he started jumping from tree to tree out of the forest and back to the commission building, when everyone saw him they had a surprised look on their face, it had only been 30minutes and he had already killed 5 earth wolves they all wondered who this boy was that was this strong, he walked to the register and put all the fangs on the counter, the lady was startled, she hesitated before taking the fangs, akuma said well? am i going to get my money or not, the lady said oh right… and quickly grabbed the fangs and gave him 20 silver coins.

with this money he should he able to buy more clothes, not gear though this was too little money. he went to a local store and bought a all black hoodie and sweatpants too move around in freely, he then went home and took a shower, unfortunately it was now dawn so he missed his day cultivation so instead he cultivated his mind and soul, he sat in a cross legged position in the back of his house and closed his eyes and started gathering Qi into his body… it was around 10 at night and suddenly he was sucked into his consciousness.

it was the same place when he passed out, but this time he knew he was awake, but again he was repelled by some dark force that stopped him from moving, what he was displayed with this time was a set of scythe techniques, they were extremely powerful each move was fast and swift, their was a human figure that was displaying the techniques, the moves only targeted lethal spots like the neck, and chest, and also legs, the scythe focuses more on precision and quick death rather than power and ravaging your enemy

Suddenly a purple and black eerie aura started coming towards him, this reminded him of the first time and pain, so he panicked a little, but this time it stopped in front of him, it started taking shape into a scythe, the place where you hold it was pitch black and, the top where you swing at was a dark purple color, it was so sharp it could cut mountains clean in half if you had enough power to do so, but what he also saw was a sign of a skull on the bottom hilt of the scythe, this piqued his interest, it was the same as the book that started all of this.

he made an assumption that this skull sign would help him greatly in finding more about his ancestors so he kept that in mind, then he was pulled out of his consciousness, but the weapon was no where to be found, suddenly he saw a tattoo of a skull on the back of his right and and he knew how to use the weapon.

all he had to do was think of the weapon and it would appear, he did just that and the weapon appeared out of thin air into his hand, he knew what it was, it was a soul weapon, a weapon bound to its user soul forever, he started swinging it around a bit, it made sounds like cutting through air, 5 minutes later he put it away to wherever it goes in his soul, he decided to get some rest and he would practice it the next day, he had also jumped to the 6th level of the [Soul Qi Gathering] stage his mind felt clearer, he went to get some rest to prepare for tomorrows training.
