The next day, early in the morning, i went to train with my dad as per usual. But this time not the basics, but my new ability.
Well i can't really call it training... the only thing i was doing yesterday was just standing there while my father attacked me with his killing intent out, not fully though... the reason to it being that if he would let out his killing intent entirely... i would suffocate because of the pressure. Adam is very strong.. too strong even, so its not that surprising.
Today we did the same thing as the previous day and the day after we repeated the same thing and it went on for an entire week.
[Repulsing Space Barrier level: 10 maxed out for the current realm, evolve into a greater realm to be able to upgrade skills past level 10]
[mana: 45]
[pressure resistance level: 2]
I acquired the skill of pressure resistance which was probably gained by me continuously being under the pressure of Adams killing intent. If I level up the resistance more in the future, even though i will still perfectly feel the killing intent, i will not suffer pressure from it.
Quite a useful passive skill i got there..
I nod to myself.
"I don't think there is any point of training that space barrier of yours for now... Now try using your space element on your own. Everything depends on your imagination. You have a bit more mana after our little training sessions, so you can try creating something.. When you want to make something with your element you can always feel what you can and what you can not do. You can feel what is possible and also impossible for the current you. I can not help you with this, you are on your own from now on, the only thing i can do to help you is to suggest things and guide you through the process, nothing more nothing less. So... good luck Kiran" Adam suddenly said to me.
"Umm... okay, I will try my best, dad" I said before trying to think of things i am able to do.
After a few minutes of thinking, i thought: what if i try to make that barrier again, but this time not around me but outside me. To trap someone inside it so to speak... but what about the repulsing thing outside it.... wait... what if i make the repulsing effect it has not outside like it originally is, but inside so it would be harder to escape and harder to break from inside... GODDAMN I AM A GENIUS HAHAH
At first I try to call out that barrier by myself... and fail miserably, i only drained my mana and did nothing with it...
I try again, again, again and again.
And i fail, fail, fail and fail.
Time and time again, but i finally manage to summon it by myself.
Sweat dripping from my forehead, I smile achieving the wanted.
And then i fall unconscious because of exhaustion.
The next day and the a few days after I try to achieve the wanted result.
And after those days of hard work i finally get a notification from the system.
[Host learned the skill Engulfing Space Barrier Level:0]
[Engulfing space barrier: the opposite of Repulsing Space Barrier, The Engulfing Space barrier traps and engulfs your target in a closed space and it pushes the target away from the wall of the barrier. because of the Repulsing effect on the inside of the Engulfing Space barrier]
FINALLY HAHAHA I AM A TRUE GENIUS, WHO CAN EVER COMPARE TO ME?! HAHA
My father appeared from my shadow, flicked my forehead with his fingers and said:
"Although your new skill will definetly be useful in the future and can be considered a very high ranked skill, don't get too arrogant, know that you are too weak to even be considered as something threatening to anyone and even if after some time you will become stronger, which will definetly happen, you being my son and all, know Kiran, there is always someone or something stronger than you. Someone might think that i am one of the most powerful existences in the world, which might be somewhat true. But don't forget i am only ranked 3rd in the «Icosagon» there are two more people who are definetly stronger. But this is just our empire, there are two more equally powerful empires and their people that are as equally as powerful as me or even stronger than me. And our Emperor? I believe there are existences in this universe that are possibly... definetly more powerful than him or any of us... But don't think that far. Or actually do, its good to have that in mind, it helps you stay sane and doesn't let you become too arrogant. ..Listen to me one more time Kiran, Arrogance is good but too much of it can get you killed.. Do you understand?"
"Yes father!" i return to reality and don't dwell on my former thoughts.
"Anyways, congratulations on learning a new skill with such a rare element, now its time to train it" my dad says with a smile.
"How do I train it?" i asked curiously, because i really have no idea how to..
"Use that skill on me" Adam said with the usual creepy smile on his face.
I do as he says and use the skill i just acquired
[Engulfing space barrier level:0]
Adam casually bumped the barrier with his backfist while being traped inside it and destroyed it with ease.
I can't even call that trapping, i mean how can you call someone trapped if he can go out of it anytime he wants...
We repeat the same actions again and again..
I continuously learned, created and leveled up my skills that were possible for the current me.
I grew stronger by the day with the help of my dad that is an absolute training maniac... can't describe him any differently..
