When I got to the top of the ladder I knocked on the door over me saying Eant please let me out I heard movement over the hatch I pushed open the door open when the noise stopped I crowded out of the hole shutting the door as I stood up I looked over to Eant saying see you soon buddy and I ran away from him and around the barn where I seen my mother walking through the screen door looking around but when she seen me running towards her she received a eye brew saying o there you are Hunter but y are you shirtless I stopped in front of her and looked down to my body realising I left my shirt down in my hiding hole so I simple shrugged saying cuz y not shirts are overrated my mom chuckled o is that so she walked passed me around the house saying let's go your training is still getting started and the dummy wants to play with you again I huffed at her sweet town of voices we got to the sand put and I walked into it walk my mom stood on the side again I turned to her saying let's go she gave me a evil smile be careful what you wish for son and she waved her hand and the dummy appeared next to her when it fully appeared its head slowly turned to me I chuckled how creepy it was being but the dummy didn't waste any time and charged at me as it did that light blue chakra stared forming on it I side realising that it was a little more stronger than yesterday but I simply got into a fighting stance as my black chakra armor appeared over my body when the dummy through the first punch at my I simply blocked it I then focused chakra into my palm and I slammed my palm into this dummy's chest when my palm hit its chest the dummy reinforced chakra in that place but still even with that it still slide back but I didn't let it recover I lunched at it this time I through a kick at its side but this dummy blocked it easily and it grabbed my leg so I couldn't move and it through a kick at my chest I razed my arm and blacked it the dummy and I jumped back from each other recovering then we longed at each other again as I fot against this dummy my mother simply watched from the side lines I didn't notice this but my father walked out of the house putting away his phone he walked next to my mother both of them stayed silent simple watching me fight but father side saying I just got off the phone with elder Sobek it would seem there's going to be a tribe meeting and elder Sobek wishes one of us and Hunter to attend the meeting my mom side y do they want him Daniel my dad shrugged who's knows Megan it's probably cuz Hunter took the first shot and the other tribes want him there for that wall Elder Sobek probable wants him there cuz he knows Hunter ant scared of fighting and he knows if Hunter goes one of us will go and that will just increase his family power my momside again so he is using us for his own motives my dad shrugged saying yea buts not like we get anything out of this Hunter gains experience and probably some useful items or something wall are family gains a strong ally that we can call to are add if the greens tribe becomes are ally's this would make the 20 families we got as ally's my mom simple nodded ok Daniel when is this meeting my dad was the one to sy this time it's in one month or one month and two days to be exact my mom's eyes widened shit she muttered that doesn't give us much time to train him my dad nodded we might have to take off the child gloves and actually push Hunter to the point that he will have to adapt or give up my mother side sadly y is his luck this shitty we had way more time with Huntress and Duke hell even Lucy got more time to train then him and we trained them in a gods damn war my dad nodded I agree we will just have to adapt and try a new way to train him I have already made many potions and pills that will greatly enhance his strength and Samuel has help me with this but we discussed it and we both will teach Hunter one of are secret chakra techniques as for how much this will help him that all depending on Hunter's resolve and determination if any normal person was in his place they would break under this training hell no one in either of our families except for maybe Lucy and maybe Duke in the right circumstances my mom side again nodding I agree ok Daniel if this is what you think will help him get stronger then let's do it I already got the perfect skill to teach him, my dad, nodded saying ok send him to me when you're done I will get the bath ready it's going to hurt like hell but it will help him, in the long run, my mom nodded and my dad walked away little did they know but I heard all of that and an evil smile spread across my face after a few hours of this when I seen Triss walk from around the house and next to my mother they didn't speak they just watched my but I didn't get distracted and I kept on fighting and after another hour my mom yelled stop and the dummy and I heard that we jumped apart my mom walked in front of me saying you did on son but your not pushing your self hard enough you need to take this more seriously I know you can do better and stop relying on your body alone they only way you can get skills that's if you try and us them I smiled saying ok mom if you step back I will show you a chakra skill she was shocked but nodded and took several steps back away from me I looked to Triss asking I assume your power is storm based right Triss was confused but answered sort of I can control the elements yes and lightning is one of the elements I like to us y I smiled evily ok good us your power against me don't hold back Triss and my mother was shocked what the hell Triss yelled no I ant doing that you will die I chuckled saying don't worry about me Triss I wouldn't ask you to do this if I wasn't confident I will servive Triss stared at me like a mad man but my mother laughed saying how interesting do it Triss don't tell me your not curious to see what his plan is Triss looked from me to her like we was two crazy people fare enough we did have a few scroos lose Triss side and slapped her hands together and slowly moved them appeared when she did that lightning arced between her hands she then thrust her hands to the air when she did this the sky got dark and a storm cloud started to appear Triss looked down to me she had a conflicted look but she said I hope you know what your doing Hunter cuz this is going to hurt I smiled and sat down crossing my legs dont worry about me Triss pain is a small price to pay I closed my eyes and kept my chakra armor over me but I also activated my skill Kahashi when I did thunder shook the sky and lightning started flashing the hair on my arms stud up from the electricity in the air then boom one bolt of lightning hit me directly I gritted my teeth but indoored the pain and focused on understanding the lightning elements you see one of the best ways to develop power in an element is to bathe in that element the more you understand that elements the more you can do of course this wasn't the normal way far from it but I have no time to do it the long way besides even though this wasn't the normal way the people who go through the lightning bathing there power is vastly more powerful then the others who don't it's part of the hi risk hi reward system the more lighting you bathe in the stronger your understanding is and seeing I don't got many skills I need a ace up my sleeve so I simple beared my teeth indooring the pain even when more lighting started striking me, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 the bolts kept on striking me and I didn't know how long passed with me indooring the pain but slowly the lightning started to feel num it was after the 50th lightning bolt struck me I could feel my body vibrating from how much lightning that was moving through my body and chakra veins I could tell this lighting was strengthening my body I opened my eyes smiling I didn't see this but lighting was arcing through my eyes I stood up sensing my new ability I razed my hand in front of my face my black ki armor was still activated but green lighting sparked between my fingers I smiled evily and I pulled out my Glaive and started chsnneling my power into it when I did the edge of the blade turned green from my lighting and I started spinning my glaive around when I slashed down green lighting followed behind the blade I slashed up the same thing happened lighting followed it I then thrust forward when I did I short forward a few foot I started laughing like crazy I slammed the end of my glaive onto the ground and circle of lighting shot around me I put away my glaive and simple slammed my hands together and started consitrating and condensing lighting in my hands and when I moved my hands apart a green spike formed I quickly deactivated my lightning power cuz I had a feeling that lighting spike was very deadly I looked to my mom and Triss and it was funny both of them had a different reaction to my power Triss was dumbfounded wall my mom had a crazy smile on her face like she was proud I walked in front of her saying do did I pass mother my mom laughed nodding yes you did ok Hunter before I send you to your father I will give you this and from out of nowhere she pulled out a old looking scroll she held it out to me saying this is one of my families secret techniques I have given this scroll to all of your sibling and all of them with time understood this technique but you don't got that so I ask you do you just want to learn this skill and leave it be or do you want this scroll and another that holds one of my techniques that only I know choose carefully I smiled saying give me them both if I understand them both it will give me something to brag about to my sibling my mom laughed nodded and pulled out a newer-looking scroll and handed them over saying good luck son now go your father is waiting for you I simple nodded and walked back inside with Triss who was still dumbfounded I didn't have to go looking for my father him and uncle was sitting at the dinner table cleaning weapons but when my we walked in my dad smiled saying go take a bath Hunter it's all ready for you I nodded want upstairs to get me some clean clothes when I got back downstairs Triss was sitting across from my dad with a huge sketch, book in front of her she looked up to me and I winked at her she rolled her eyes smiling I walked to the bathroom what I seen shocked me the bathtub was full of not water but a dark red liquid I smelled like many fresh plants but also chemicals and there was a bright blue thing floating in the water which made it bubbly I side took off my clothes and slowly very slowly I dipped one tow into the liquid but immediately withdrew my foot cuz of a burning feeling I looked down to my tow and the skin was red just from that I side again muttering to my self are they trying to kill my that's when I seen the redness quickly disappear and heal and the skin that healed look fresh and new I muttered to my self something but I smiled evily and this time I didn't dip a tow into the liquid I simple got in I even put my head under the liquid this liquid wasn't warm no it was oddly cold but there was something in the water that started burning off my skin hell it even burned my bones but just like that my body got healed and my body felt great hell even my skin shined but it soon burned away again this kept on happening for a hour till I got healed and the burning didn't happen I stood up I felt great I clinched my hand and for some reason I felt stronger I looked down to my body and what I seen made my mouth drop open I was in pretty good shape before but now my body was chiseled I had a 6 pack and my muscles moved with power I had almost 0 fat but this wasn't the only surprising my skin shined there were almost 0 scares on my body the only ones that stayed was the scar from that damn rat and a new one from my neck and over my shoulders there were scares that looked like lightning bolts hell it was almost like a huge bran if anyone seen the two scares I had now they would be scared of how scary these scars look I dried my self off put on my new clothes walked out of the bathroom I walked into the dining room to see my mom had joined the weapon cleaning she was cleaning a French famas machine gun she was cleaning this weapon like it was her baby but behind her resting on the ground on it's bipods was a fucking barret 50 Cal but it didn't have a scope on it I walked around the table and sat down looking to the weapons my uncle and father was cleaning my dad was cleaning a pmr-30 which was a pistol that could hold 30 rounds in one clip sure it was only chambered in 22 but the type of 22 bullets it shoots may not blow a big hole in a target but it's piercing and speed was crazy for how small of a round it was I looked to my uncle and when I saw the weapon in his hand my mouth dropped open a god's damn grenade launcher I stood up yelling how the fuck do you own that my uncle smiled saying what this old girl it was a gift from a friend besides Hunters are fully legal and able to us military weapons they ant cheap of course and it's easier to get shit from the black market then the government them self's my mouth was hanging open I was stunned I sat back down shaking off my shock quickly that reminds me I have a favor to ask you three and I looked them over my mom put down the cloth she was using to oil and wipe down the barrel and age started at me my dad also put down his pistol and started at my my uncle didn't stop cleaning his grenade launcher but he was listening I nodded saying ok I plan on opening my own business for crafting weapons and armor for now I will only be selling melee weapons still I get enough money to start making guns and ammo but I will also not only be selling to hunters no I will be selling to all as long as they pay and I know you all got connections to both spread the word and make this work they was shocked but it was my uncle who spoke first chuckling ok Hunter I am in my mom and dad nodded my dad smiled saying yea it will be easy to put your name out there what will you call this shop of yours I smiled y not the Reaper smithy we master in the art of making the reapers tools what will you do with them will you kill with it or maybe it will save your life but one thing is for it will protect you but remember no refunds all three of them looked at each other then they all started laughing my Uncle nodded I like it my dad nodded I do to it fits my mom just chuckled saying ok Hunter we will spread work around about our son opening the reapers smithy I smiled saying thanks now it's your turn I turned to Triss who was still drawing but when she heard my words she looked up to me asking what about me Hunter I smiled I assume you got your tattoo stuff with you she nodded yea I would never leave them behind y do you want a tattoo or something I laughed saying yea I do but no normal tattoos I want enhancing and chakra storage tattoos Triss eyes widened Hunter both of those tattoos are secrets of my family or they was I would be happy to do them for you but they ant cheap I would need at least a hand-sized gem to do a full arm sleeve but a big back or chest tattoo I would need more gems but I can do your first one for free sense I got the materials with me I nodded ok Triss lets do it Triss stood up smiling and ran up stairs grabbing her stuff and rain back down I was already sitting with my left short sleeve rolled up Triss walked next to me and we started taking about tattoo ideas.
