"Cursed Technique"
"As clans began to form, the rock that had fallen upon our people was not singular; there were two such rocks, or so the ancient tales would have it. The second rock was believed to be cursed, possessing boundless power capable of reshaping reality itself. Yet, its path remained unknown, and its existence was soon forgotten, until the emergence of the first clan known as the Yukihana. This clan swiftly established dominance over their territories with their unparalleled powers, shaping the land we now know. However, under mysterious circumstances, the clan eventually disintegrated, and their power gradually waned as their descendants dwindled, until only two prominent individuals remained. These two individuals went on to create the clans of Light and Shadow. The Yukihana clan was never meant to fade away, but with each passing generation, its leaders vanished, and its power was lost, until... Barry was born."
He was known as the cursed child due to the underlying power he possessed, there were stages to his power, which if accessed would alter the balance of the world. For example, the use of Cursed Technique 1 causes 100 beasts to spawn in multiple outskirts of the land to balance the overuse of the world's power limit.
Master gently placed Barry's lifeless form on the ground, locking eyes with his kin. The woman's breath quickened as she hurried to obtain the power extracted from Hazel. Master wasted no time and swiftly released a piercing beam of light, only to be astonished as it was deflected. Two men, who had been supporting the woman from the beginning, suddenly materialized through a portal and swiftly seized the lady, retreating with her.
Master ground his teeth as he was unable to stop them. Alan and Shelby at last arrived at the scene to see a blood-drenched Barry, unconscious Hazel, and Gabriel.
[ At Hospital ]
Barry slowly flickered his eyes as the light above him made it hard for him to see, he could hear Master and Alan talking in front of him so he decided to hear it while resting his head back on the pillow.
"The rebuilding crew has started to restore the residence with their respective powers and the people who were evacuated have been brought safely although we will face a food shortage I think we will pull through as for Hazel she has lost all of her powers and her systems lifeless," explained Master.
Barry's tears couldn't hold back now as his face was covered with stripes of tears, he took the blame for all this as he was trusted by Master himself to guard the residence and he had failed only because he wasn't good with his Light Ability.

"Barry promise me that you won't use your cursed abilities unless it's the question of Life or Death," said Master.
"But how would I assist you in fights and protect the residence", said Barry.
"Here". Master focused his powers in the palm of his hand with a gentle touch to Barry's chest half of Master's powers were now a part of Barry's system, and it was quite notable that the powers were compatible..
****************
Barry got up from his bed and raised his shirt to see no mark on his abdomen as he knew his technique worked. He wore his uniform and walked past the unconscious bodies of Hazel and Gabriel. He exited the hospital to go to a certain place but was stopped by a gale of wind.
"where do you think you going now", questioned Alan.
"Not in the mood to talk right now if you wanna join then tag along quietly", replied Barry.
Alan was quite shocked as once the cheering immature Barry he knew was not the same but he quietly tagged alone as they walked to the border of the residence and sat on a hill.
"This is the place, where master first found me and decided to take me on a difficult journey, which I failed as of today", narrated Barry.
Alan didn't reply but listened to him in silence as he knew he had to let Barry take his guilt out.
"I witnessed a demon power today, although it wasn't in person, a sword forged from its flesh and horns and it contained some sinful power as the one I was hit with immediately in a few seconds sapped my whole energy and rendered me immobile.", explained Barry.
Alan was astonished to learn about this kind of power as he wondered what devious powers Kenta would possess, but it was better if he did not know about it as exploiting it would lead to chaos.

The portal opened at an unknown place way outside the light residence, it was hidden amongst the mist, and all three set foot on the land, while carrying the dense power they stole from Hazel in a vessel.
"You gotta be more careful Silva, You know he possesses Light abilities, if it weren't for my defense you would've been dead, although he still managed to break my strongest defense move", spoke the man.
"Yeah yeah I know but still we managed to achieve what we came for, finally the beginner Power for the creation of the ultimate power is in our custody," said Silva.
[Shadow Type: Shadow manipulation]
With a twist of Silva's and the two men's necks through their shadows, their bodies raised in the air effortlessly, Silva barely looked back to see the user of this dreadful power, It was the leader of the Shadow clan.
"Pathetic insects, this power has possibilities that your pathetic minds can't even imagine, it would be sad if it was wasted on you", said the leader as he advanced to collect the fallen vessel. Silva in retaliation was about to summon the strongest demon in her arsenal, but her reaction was read by the leader as in a split second all three's necks snapped as their body fell.
"Well well I guess they weren't useless at all", said the leader as a gigantic beast stood in front of him. With a crack of his knuckles, he activated his aura and within minutes he held his head and a crystal in his hand while giving a light smile
"They managed to make Barry use his Cursed Technique 1", thought the leader while laughing menacingly as now he had obtained a way to get to the second major power leading to his plan.
