..............
a small apologies.
sorry, One of the cats I used to feed near our house was brutally murdered by a heartless kid, the monster in human skin took a big stones and crushed the little kitten to death, then those bunch of monsters started playing with its corps without feeling anything.
I didn't have the mood to write anything.
You can't imagine how much I wished to write their names in a death note.
In my eyes the life of that little kitten is worthy more than these ugly humans, the existence of these monsters will only bring more destruction and pain, their parents let them play in the streets all the day, never taught them to respect life, so they are also damned.
And if you talked with them they will defend their children even though they are wrong for the reason : "they are still kids who know nothing!"
Huh? Kids who know nothing? Then what is the reason to harm a powerless kitten that did no harm to them? If these kids were to grow up and get even a little bit of power their cruelty will fall on more powerless animals and even humans!
Netero was right, humanity's malice is endless.
..................
The moment the lid is opened, the atmosphere of the room instantly shifted.
The lights dimmed, the air became thick and heavy, waves of malicious emotions spread wantonly.
Ash's white hair is fluttering without a reason.
If Ash wasn't using Ten to protect his body and spirit then his mind will be impacted by these malicious energy and may end up suffering from mental illness.
Ash's eye landed on the the source of the malice. Which is A bloody red and black compass.
Ash was immediately struck by its ominous appearance.
The smell of blood entered his nostrils, Ash frowned.
"What kind of satanic compass is this?"
The compass face is adorned with intricate black markings that seem to writhe and twist, The background is a deep, rich crimson red, like the color of freshly spilled blood.
The needle, which should be pointing towards magnetic north, seems to twitch and quiver in a most unnerving fashion. It's almost as though the compass itself is alive. The needle is tipped in a jet black substance that looks like obsidian and contrasts sharply with the fiery red background.
But it's not just the needle that moves on this cursed compass - the markings on the face shift as well.
The blood red and jet black colors, combined with the shifting, twisting markings and the quivering needle, make the cursed compass seem alive and malevolent.
No matter how he looked at it, Ash felt this compass must be cursed, the smell of blood coming from it without doubt means this compass must have been baptized with the blood of countless living creatures, whether it's humans or animals he doesn't know yet.
Ash immediately closed the black box, the moment the lid was closed, the scene returned to normal. But Ash can still see the escaping little bit of dark aura from it, it seems he really broke the seal of the mysterious black box which was used to contain this evil compass.
But even if the seal is broken, the mysterious black box still restrained eighty percent of the cursed compass malicious aura.
"I can't touch this cursed compass with my hands without knowing what kind of abilities it had, so let's recover energy first, use absolute order to know it's details, then see what kind of functions it has."
Ash decided to regain his energy first, he used most of his nen and physical strength to heal Elsa and break the seal of the box.
Ash used Zetsu, and starts swallowing high calories food, one hour later, feeling that his energy is almost full, Ash opened the box again.
He put his palm above the cursed compass and made an order.
"Analyze!"
The Golden Aura of Ash shrouded the cursed compass as it's scanning it.
In fact Ash doesn't need to cover the compass with his aura, but he only did so to cover up his Absolute Order, even if no body is seeing him, he is trying to engrave this seat of actions into his instinct.
Ash knows deeply how dangerous for your abilities to be known by others in this world, there are so many cases of the weak overwhelming the strong relying on intelligence or fulfilling certain conditions of their Nen abilities.
This is the last thing Ash wants to happen to him.
The aura of Ash reduced by half, the order was implemented.
Suddenly, bunch of information appeared in his mind.
"The compass of desires, point to the location of the most desired thing of it's holder."
*hiss*
Ash's eyes opened wide from this function, he took a long breath calming down his excitement and shock.
He continued receiving the information.
"The compass of desires will keep sucking it's holder's life energy all the time, it won't stop until he is dead."
"These life energy are the cost for it's function, the holder can use any other living being to bear the cost, like a sacrifice to perform a one time deduction of the thing he wants to get or look for."
"The sacrifice need the living being's blood to touch the compass surface, after that the compass will keep on devouring it's life energy till death."
"The compass of desires will guide you to the location of the thing you desire the most, but it will take you through the most difficult and endangering path."
After absorbing all the information, Ash realized the usefulness of the compass, although it had a lot of pitting rules and side effects like draining it's holder life energy or taking him through the most difficult path, but Ash believe it's worthy this price.
Just imagine that Ash wants to search for the location of a lost treasure or an ancient ruin, the amount of research needed and energy needed is so huge, but with the compass, he just needs to offer a sacrifice and he will be guided to it's place! Saving him time and hardship.
"The one who made this compass must be a treasure hunter!" Ash believed that such a Nen tool must be conjured by a treasure hunter who had a great desire to find treasures.
"This compass will be useful after I complete my training in heavens arena, that time I'll starts searching for ruins and explore what this world is hiding for me." Ash thought of what he can do with this artifact and was excited by the idea of using it in searching for ruins or exploring mysterious secret realms, the possibilities are infinite, he needs to dig it himself.
Ash closed the mysterious box, then issued an order.
"Seal!"
Using forty percent of his aura, he mad a medium level seal on the box so the malicious aura of the compass won't spread wantonly in his room.
Ash took a rest recovering his aura, then walked out of his room, he directly went to register for today's match.
Few minutes later, his opponent was determined, Ash faced his opponent on the ring.
Ash who learned Nen didn't need to use his absolute order at all, he just 'gently' pushed the opponent sending him flying out of the rind, and easily won the fight.
Without wasting time he headed to the 110th floor, repeated the same process, the enemy was also just a fighter who doesn't know nen, so he stood no chance against Ash.
Reaching the 120th floor, Ash decided to stop here today, the reason is that he wants to seize this free time to train his Nen and Body, he know he will face strong opponents in the 200th floors and above, maybe even the next floors he can encounter hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
The Next day, In his new room in the 120th floor, Ash stood there shirtless sweating profusely.
He was holding a timer in his hand, at the same time he was using Ren.
The golden aura of Ash rushed In all direction, making him look as if he was transforming into super sayin.
But after a while he got tired, his aura was almost consumed, not mater how much he ordered he can achieve the same volume as before.
His breath was short, sweat dripping from his forehead, he looked at the timer and saw the number one minute and twenty three seconds on it.
"The duration increased by twenty three seconds, the progress is good, I just need to keep on insisting and the duration of my Ren will be extended, so I won't have to worry in the future about the lack of energy!"
Besides Ren allowing the nen user to use a bigger amount of aura temporary to increase his strength, it also serve a training methods to refine the aura deep inside the human boy and increase the amount of aura he can normally use in fights for a long period of time.
For the next three hours Ash kept on practicing Ren tirelessly, the duration extended by nearly four minutes from the one minute and twenty three seconds to five minutes and five seconds, this speed of progress is not low at all, but that's also is normal, must of rookie Nen users will usher in a rapid growth of their aura in the beginning because at the starts their aura quantity is small, so they can empty it quickly and restore it in minutes, but as their aura quantity grow, the time it require to restore it will also increase, and slowly this kind of training will become ineffective, at least you must be ready to use days and even months to have a significant rise in the aura quantity.
"Well that's for today, I need to visit Elsa and continue the treatment." Ash remembers that he needs to return Elsa's life energy stolen by the compass of desires, thinking of Elsa's cute face, and her orange level beauty, thinking of the system's rewards, all in all, Ash can't wait to catch this blond Pokémon.
Ash quickly took a shower, wore a casual white shirt and short pants, walked out of the heaven's arena, toward the hospital where Elsa is located.
He bought some flowers and fruits in the road, just a little gift to improve her impression toward him.
Arriving at the hospital, Ash entered the room Elsa staying in.
