Chapter 4 - chapter 3: the first level of everything

"Well, the first thing would be to take a comfortable position that allows you to concentrate" said belion to which I sat in a meditative position, "then close your eyes and relax" after belion said that I put my hands together and closed my eyes I released air and relax my muscles, "i will help you feel your mana by transferring mine to your core after that follow my voice during this process keep relaxed and keep your eyes closed" when belion said that he put his paw on my back and i could feel a quality sensation that entered through my back and went to a point of my body.

"forget everything around you and feel only that small point where your mana grows" while belion said that, I saw everything around me black, but then I could feel a light on the opposite side of where my heart was, "when I felt that light in your body try to make it go all over your body" I did what he asked me, that light began in a diluted way to spread that warm sensation throughout my body until it was completely covered.

"I will withdraw my hand and my mana, after that try to stop spreading that light throughout your body and return it to its starting point after that spread it back throughout the body do it as many times as you can improving the speed and clarity of the movement, all this until I say to open your eyes" said belion removing his hand and leaving me there doing the exercise.

I spent some time doing this exercise improving the expulsion of mana and returning it to my core, I managed to increase its expulsion by making the energy shine with the same intensity throughout my body, also making it come out in different colors and finally I managed to this came out in a very quick time.

"you can open your eyes" said belion, when i opened my eyes i saw belion that next to him there was a large amount of ice block next to him, "truly incredible, rythmos tries to do the same thing you did with closed eyes, but this time with my eyes open" said belion to which I did what he asked me, I could feel a warmth flowing through my body and an improvement in my body.

"This exercise that you did is the first level of control, according to what a normal person would take five days to master, you did it only in 6 hours, this is because you are a magic and training genius, besides that you are a magical sensor this allows you to achieve a monstrous advance" said belion before my training, "wait this it took me 6 hours" I said when seeing belion's words, "if when you enter that exercise your body entered a state of relaxation that it's as if you were asleep, but at the same time conscious using your mana core" said belion before my doubt and explaining a little more.

"belion that allows me to do that step" I said to which belion replied with some joy in his voice, "a good question, this step allows you to use your mana core in a basic way, which gives you a state that while surround your body with mana this can last longer in better conditions, the brighter the color you use on your body this effect will be greater" said belion as he took half of the remaining rabbit, took a piece and ate it with his beak with quickly, then I leave my piece near me.

"belion and what are the other steps" I said taking the piece and putting it on a branch like a skewer, "the step you did is just something very basic that will help you use your mana better, the next step would be to make you able to manipulate better the colors of the mana, then it would be output as a cloak around your body and then it would be the use of mana to enhance parts of your body these are the steps that will allow you to use mana control to a great level in the interior of your body, then the next step is the exit of your mana to the environment, this step is the one required to start the practice of elemental application at level f, then it would give shape to the mana outside your body and this is what It allows you to learn magic from level E to C, then until the step where I am and I know its capabilities, it would be the way out in an object that allows you to practice some spells of level C and B" finished belion, while I put the rabbit between two serving sticks to be able to cook it.

"How long do you think we will take on this" I said looking at Belion thoughtfully, "You did the first step in six hours, the second and third will each take a whole day since they have the same difficulty, the fourth level would give you three days to be able to learn it at a good level, the fifth about five days, the sixth about two weeks and the seventh a whole month" said belion to which I nodded, "it's less than I expected, but asking you something else what are those cubes of ice" I said seeing the large amount there was.

"It is the food of these two weeks, seeing your progress you will reach the fifth level so after that I will take you to a rocky area to show you the sixth and seventh level, the ice is maintained with magic so do not worry about its duration, plus the ice helps me keep food and I got them while you were doing the first level" said belion explaining what he did in the afternoon.

"belion I have to ask you something where is your family" I said to which belion sighed, "my family is a complicated issue, I'll tell you because I'm over it, my parents died and my brothers are with someone who was to blame for the death of my parents" said belion seriously, "belion sorry for asking, but if it is not of much importance could you give me a summary of what happened" I said to which he nodded.

"Ice griffins do not live in herds, families are usually formed if they have not formed ties after 30 years, families usually have more than two children, my parents formed a family of three children, my father had an affinity with water, but my mother had water and wind" said belion stopping at his mother and then continuing after a few seconds, "we were raised in magic from a very young age, after a time when I was about to leave my family , my sister Elizabeth two years older than me came out, it turns out that only two months later she made a bond with a princess of a kingdom called danafor, my sister lived since then a life of luxury and at one point she mentioned our family to the princess who was I told the king," Belion said calmly before taking a more serious tone on the matter.

"When the king found out about this, he asked my sister to convince us to form a link with the rest of the children of the royal family, my sister returned six months after leaving to tell us about how wonderful her life was and try to take us with the royal family, my older brother Arthur went with her, but the king reacted negatively only by bringing an ice griffin and decided to send a group of his men to hunt us down to form a bond by force, the group tried to capture us with hostility and they formed a fight in which my parents sacrificed themselves and died, but I was able to escape, that happened about four years ago, since then I have traveled the world trying to forgive humans, seeing their way of life from afar" concluded belion sadly .

"I'm sorry for your loss belion" I said to which he shook his head, "not your race nor my brothers are to blame, it was that king and his people, but I have no interest in that now I simply want to travel with you and if possible more go ahead meet my brothers and know what they have become" said belion.

"belion I will do what I can when I am ready to fulfill your wish" I said seriously for the first time, "you are quite kind to be a human, it is what I like that you were my link, I hope you never forget this rythmos" finished belion, after that we rest for the next day to start and finish the second level of magic.
