Ast was very pleased with his new ability and also with the system as it explained to him in details what were the implications of having this ability. This was a perfect tool for someone like Ast who like to experiment with things. He felt his body growing stronger with each passing second although the rate of growth will lower with time but this ability was really overpowered. Using lightning on ones body they can increase their speed and reactions. Lightning as a form of attack can stun their enemies and also its destructive power was well known, although the power that they wield would be less compared to an elementalist of lightning element, but they could add lightning to their own attacks which would do wonders.
But most importantly he was happy for Anya, she has an affinity for both water and wind and this ability of hers would fit perfectly for her as it will allow her to understand lightning element and later she can fuse it with her soul. Lightning elemental was rare and considered very powerful in this world and the information regarding this element was always kept confidential by families or groups using lighting. But now they had it inside their body, they could observe how lightning is formed from water and wind element, how it behaves and various other things. If they are diligent then their comprehension of lightning can even surpass the inheritance of top families. Ast was still hell-bent on fusing with an altered light element (for his belief that he can create something close to darkness element and also that his affinity with light was very high) but now he could help Anya better.
Anya woke up a few hours later Ast explained to her in simplest of terms which ability they got and how amazing it was for her. She trusted Ast wholly, she did not asked him anything and believed him completely and literally stated jumping around with happiness singing praises of how strong she was going to be in the future. Ast started laughing while seeing her like this. Finally Anya became hungry and stopped her procession. Ast took out the food from the ring started some fire to heat the food and both of them started eating while happily talking.
"Ast, what to do with the third fruit?" asked Anya. " This fruit is our big secret so we can't give it to someone randomly and we have already activated this ability so it is useless to us, so for the time being we will do nothing" replied Ast.
" But it is ripe now what if it goes bad" asked Anya. " Well it is fine that way, I don't think we can find someone we trust this soon. If it is goes bad it goes bad. But if we are caught it will be a lot of trouble. Always remember sis it is better to take a small loss if it allows us to get stronger without getting noticed" replied Ast.
Anya nodded and looked at Ast thinking her brother is really smart. " Sis when we go back home ask the head butler to organise someone to teach you how to use a dagger and bow and arrow, i don't want to attract any suspicions so i won't be learning directly but will watch your lessons and practice with you later and two days a week we will come here in the cave and practice comprehending the elements near the lake and learn how to fight as well. I think we can make this our schedule for the time being. What do you think? "
