'Yes, let's go deeper into the forest'
'What is this training for?'
'In principle, for unlocking your magical power, if you have any'
'Very moralizing Shimo, and how on earth you will unlock my magical abilities'
Shimo suddenly stops and he looks forward with a serious look on his face.
'This is your training'
'The fuck are you talking about? Are you afraid of some bushes?'
Satoru very arrogant moves closer to the bushes, but from behind Shimo pushes Saturo into the bushes and fell into a chasm.
'AHHHHH!'
'I have no time for this, i need to catch onto something'
'FUUUUUCK!'
'Useless, the walls are too slippery, you need to use your inner abilities' Yelled Shimo
'FUCK!'
'FUCK!'
'FUCK!'
'...'
'...'
'Am I dead?'
'No, its different, its warmer and... brighter?'
Satoru looks down and he sees magma under him at 2 centimeters or so. And he sinks, but unexpectedly he became one with the fire and the magma. He steps on a ball of fire propelling him out of the chasm. Where Shimo was waiting for him.
'Shimozuke, when i finish with you, nobody will able to ...'
'He passed out, I better bring him back at the inn and heal him quick'
Satoru wakes up
'I'm back at Shimo's place' said Satoru to himself
Satoru runs down the stairs screaming:
'Shimo you got some fucking explaining to do'
Shimozuke, polishing a pint, said:
'Take a sit, Satoru'
'In this world exist a minority of people with magical powers, but to unlock your powers, i learned the hard way that you need to undergo a near death experience. Before I met you, I documented myself and I heard that the chasm I pushed you in was actualy a mana-nexus'
'Wait, near death experience, mana-nexus? What the fuck are you talking about?'
'When someone with undiscovered magical inner abilities goes through an experience close to death, all the mana he has will manifest in such a nature to save the user's life. From that moment the magic is unlocked and after the skills are nurtured, they can be used at command.
And, for short, a mana-nexus it's a place which create a favorable domain for the strongest magic user in the area and makes his inner abilities much stronger'
'I kinda understand, now what?'
'Now it's time to go to the forest again, hopefully you don't faint again'
'Sorry about that'
'Water under the bridge'
Shimo takes Satoru deep into the forest and says:
'Look'
Shimo draws his sword, his hands and feet are being enveloped in a dark aura. He charges at the old and tall trees in front of him knocking them down, creating a decagon from them
'What the hell, thats what you call Dark Magic at an usual level?'
'This was just a demonstration of my destructive abilities. What you saw was reinforcement magic, it lets me enhance any physical attribute of mine or what i came in contact with'
'So basically, you can make yourself stronger'
'Not necessarily, this ability depends on my physical force and my mana, this skill comes handy but if I don't have enough of both It will drain all my power and mana. Plus, if a part of my body is hurt too bad, I can't move, therefor I wont be able to reinfoce it anymore. This is when my flask comes in handy'
