Arkhen arrived in a garden where fifteen students were sitting on chairs and a female teacher wearing a dark creamy cotton long dress and black leggings was standing in front of them. She looked simple and beautiful with a curtain bangs hairstyle. Her dress covered her bosom well, such that no cleavage could be seen, but they were certainly not small, probably D.
The man who took Arkhen here didn't enter the garden and left.
"Arkhen, welcome to the class. I am teacher Azela," Azela said with a smile. "I got the message about you. Come with me. Let's first create your energy core."
The other students, both boys and girls of varying ages from 21 to 28, looked at Arkhen with curiosity.
"You all can ask him questions later," Azela said to the students before she beckoned Arkhen to come with her deeper into the garden.
After entering a bit deeper, out of sight from other students behind a row of trees and plants, Azela told Arkhen to sit down under a tree.
"Creating a core is not that hard. There are many kinds of energies like spirit energy, chi energy, uni energy, metaphysical energy, and such, but in the basic sense, they are all the same: a fuel to use your powers. Your fuel is uni energy, which is quite common and you can use it to use the superpower you awakened," Azela said.
"I see…" Arkhen nodded in understanding before he expressed his doubt. "What is the condition to awaken? Is it possible to awaken someone via some means?"
"Of course, it is possible to awaken someone," Azela smiled. "But it's expensive. So expensive that you can't use the currency of our Earth to buy such methods. This matter is unrelated at hand. For now, you have to create your core. Close your eyes and focus your energy on one place inside your body, either stomach or heart."
Arkhen closed his eyes and controlled the primal energy gathering at his heart. 'Velshi, why is she calling primal energy uni energy?'
[My lord. They call primal energy uni energy, but that's all. In higher realms, it is called Primal energy]
Seeing Arkhen closing his eyes and focusing, Azela continued. "After gathering that energy, you have to increase your control and solidify it into a solid core. In the process of solidifying it, you will sense a mysterious connection. Make sure you connect your core to that connection."
'What is she talking about? Why don't I sense any connection?' Arkhen said after solidifying his core.
[My lord, you don't need a world connection because you have this system which will be your source of power. Just solidify the core a bit more and I'll connect it to the system]
'Ok,' Arkhen said as he solidified his core created from primal energy more thoroughly. After a few seconds, he heard notifications.
[Primal Energy has been successfully formed.]
'I understand now what you mean by harnessing my power. Basically, this core is like an enhancer. If I pass my primal energy through it, it comes out stronger. Currently, it can produce 1000 EP primal energy, but if I can make my core more powerful, the primal energy I get from it will also be more power, thus increasing my EP,' Arkhen said.
[Exactly. You have unlimited primal energy because of
'So what connection was she talking about?' Arkhen asked as he was curious regarding this.
[That mysterious connection is basically a world connection of this realm, so they can absorb energy faster from that connection and harness their core with their energy by slowly refining their core. There should also be resources here that can refine the core significantly in a short time to increase their EP faster]
"I am done, teacher. I have formed my core," Arkhen said with a smile after opening his eyes. 'Let me see her status.'

'Damn…I don't like this. I want to get stronger fast!'
[My lord, you will reach the peak physical strengthening in ten days as long as you finish daily quests every day. After that, there will be another daily quest in which you need to reach the limit in energy power and then also upgrade the system before you can ascend]
"Good. Now that you are on the same level as others in a sense, it's time for your introduction to the rest," Azela said.
…
Azela and Arkhen returned to the class, where Arkhen did a short self-introduction.
"Arkhen, what kind of superpower did you awaken?" a girl with a long orange twin tail asked. She looked 23 years old.
"Force-field," Arkhen said with a smile as he waved his hand and trapped the girl inside a force-field.
"Woah…" the girl punched the force-field, but it didn't break. "It's hard. Teacher, what is his power level?"
"Oh yeah, let me check," Azela said as she pointed her wristwatch at Arkhen and activated some kind of function of energy reading.
'I guess they call EP as power level. Velshi, don't show it over 100. It would be strange if they suddenly find my EP stronger even though I have just formed my core,' Arkhen said as he removed the force-field from around that girl.
[Understood. My lord, you can also suppress your core with your will so that it doesn't show much power. But let me handle it when it comes to others checking your power.]
"It is 94. Not bad since he just formed his core," Azela said with a smile before she clapped once. "Alright, students. It's time to start the class. First, we'll hold an hour of your core refining session, and then we'll have a practice session of your superpowers and combat."
"Come Arkhen, let me teach you how to refine your core."
…
Three hours later, the class was over and everyone was super impressed with Arkhen's combat ability.
"Arkhen seems to have the best superpower among us. That pocket space really seems useful," Chishi said with a smile. "How abo-"
"Arkhen, do you want to come with us for lunch?" Elli asked as she interrupted Chishi. "We three are going for lunch at Kruger King Cafeteria."
Elli, Makoto, and Dionne were standing together with anticipation. They wanted to know more about Arkhen.
While the girls were really interested in Arkhen, it was the opposite for boys. Well, it couldn't be blamed because Arkhen wiped the floor with everyone in the class in combat training, not even breaking a sweat in any match.
"Sorry, but I'll have to meet up with my sisters," Arkhen said with a smile and took out his mobile phone. "But let's exchange numbers. We can meet up later when we get a chance."
[My lord, do you want to do them?]
'Well, why not? If I want something, I'll take it. Living life to the fullest is my desire for now.'
