"Here is that things head son."
Thor landed on the ship and dropped the overlord level beings head on the deck like it was just some trash.
"Thanks father, I knew I wouldn't be able to fight him so I had to call you before he arrived."
"There is no need for thanks Bjorn. You are my son and I would destroy this world in a second Ragnarök for you if I had to."
"Don't say such ominous things, but still thank you."
"Hmm, ok are you wanting me to bring you along back to the hold or are you going to finish sailing back?"
Looking at his wives and seeing them nod in approval for whatever he chose Bjorn smiled at them gratefully. Turning back to his father he gave him his answer.
"I think I would like to sail back but we should be in port first thing in the morning."
"Sounds good son. I am going back now to explain things to your mother. Who knows how she is going to react to this."
As his words finished Thor's figure faded from existence. Shaking his head at his fathers disappearing act Bjorn turned towards the others and spoke.
"Well now that this mess has been dealt with I ask you two to get the four of them settled in I will come to bed in awhile."
Showing small smiles on their faces even though they were both a bit worried about Bjorn's mood because of the two women and their daughters being on board the ship but they also know that Bjorn will talk to them about it more if he feels it is necessary.
"Ok love just let us know if you need anything."
Saying that Ashlaine and Elraine took the group of four with them into the lodging area of Bjorn's ship.
Moving towards the front of his ship Bjorn waved his hand activating the arrays on the ship to repair the damage from todays encounter. The harpoon like pieces were forcibly ejected back towards the pirate ship slamming into the side of it.
Bjorn's ship quietly and quickly repaired itself faster then a normal eye could process. Seeing as his ship had finished repairing itself Bjorn turned his attention to the pirate ship once again.
Concentrating on his control over light, he started condensing the light coming from the stars above into the palm of his right hand. Colors started coming together and finally ended in a soft ball sized sphere of condensed starlight.
With a flick of his wrist the ball of starlight shot out. As the ball flew from his palm the sphere started to grow. Finally it was so large that it completely covered the pirates ship. Bjorn slowly clenched his fist until it was fully closed. As his fist was closing, the starlight began to condense once again making itself smaller and smaller. All the while that was happening the pirates ship began to compress and break down beyond any kind of repairable state.
Bjorn wanted to break this thing down completely. With that thought in mind he pushed more mana into his actions and lightning started to course around the outside of the sphere as it got smaller and smaller. Slowly but surely the entire pirate ship was reduced to nothing but dust on the wind under the persuasion of Bjorn's overpowered strength.
Moving forward Bjorn stood at the prow of his ship once again and directed it to began sailing back towards his hold. While the ship got on course to head home Bjorn closed his eyes and started studying the strange energy in his body once again.
From what he knew this energy had attached itself to him as he was slipping through the reincarnation process. But he cannot remember much of that time only flashes of scattered memories ever come to him when he tries to remember.
So now as part of his personal training he observes and tries to understand the energy itself as if he can glean some sort of answers from it.
As he observed it this time his fathers fight with the abyssal lord played in his head. He remembered the fluctuations of there power and how refined it had seemed. With every move it was like watching a pair of artist move to create a landscape, but in this case it was like a seascape.
He thought of the way he felt how the world around them seemed to bow to them not out of fear but reverence for their the immense power they both wielded. It seemed as if they had become one with the world and all of its elements surrounding them.
Bjorn knew he was on the right path to something. He started clearing his mind of all unnecessary thoughts and concentrated on the energy and the memory. He felt something, he is so close he can taste it. There is something right there he just needs to understand what it is.
Unknown to Bjorn the energy seemed to notice that he was on the cusp of understanding something. Something that the energy deemed essential and it pulsed a wave of power out towards his soul and mind.
As it approached the two important parts of his being, the power merge with his soul and mind perfectly. Bjorn suddenly felt his mind get much clearer and at the same time felt as if his soul had gotten a boost.
At that very moment, is when it hit Bjorn. It wasn't as if they had control of the elements and they didn't merge with them, they took the energy from it to power their attacks. At first having thought of this Bjorn seemed happy but then quickly a frown formed on his face.
He may have figured out what they were doing but something about it felt wrong especially since by there level they should be drawing power from there own world. See everyone creates a world as they grow in power and that world acts as a base or a core to help empower each individual.
But it seemed like they took the power from the world around them. Bjorn felt this was wrong and he felt that you should be able to utilize the elemental and world power surrounding you without stripping it of its power.
Unknown to Bjorn his body had started glowing with an ethereal light and had all of the element of the world dancing around him making quite the spectacle. It seemed as if the world and all of its elements were celebrating him.
