In the wide hall of the training room, adorning whiteness all around, an " also " white-hair boy can be seen standing still, particularly focused on himself.
Something similar to heatwave desecended from his being, masking its uniqueness with a translucent silver.
Feeling the pressure of my skill, I felt as if I could control it entirely.
Willing it to press on the ground, It launched as it was told.
Narrowing silver-like wave dropped to the ground I stand on, making it slightly dent.
energy then seeped out of me, as to signal the battery consumed to perform that.
' This is not as broken as it seems ' I thought as I realized that using my pressure willingly depletes energy.
' I need to learn how to control it ' I willed myself.
Another affect of the skill that I'm starting to noticed now is the indifference feeling I have.
Athough the term indifference is slightly wrong as it is disinterest, but it is of somewhat hmm " simular " .
Calling for my status and looking for my skill I saw :
[{C} Temperament control ] ( growth skill ) :
- Controls temperament both emotionaly and physically.
- Control one's atmospheric presence or pressure.
The term temperament refers to self control. Emotionaly signifies emotions and Physically coins behavior.
My mind being clear, held full control of myself, my body and mind. The emotions I willed to arises arises and the actions I willed to take, will take.
The temperament of my character felt omniscient, akin to an all accomplishing existence. The pinnacle of stocism.
Back when I was " Ryan " , I studied a lot about the subject, " Stoicism " I mean.
First founded by Zeno, a merchant who found himself in misfortune.
He lost great wealth at sea, signaling his failure of life, but by not lamenting in negativity like others in his shoe would do, he took a different veiw of perspective.
With his new found knowledge, he began to implement it in his life as well as spreading it to all around by creating a school.
Generations past and soon many great individuals practice his knowledge.
Characters such as Epictetus, Ceneca, Aristotles and Markus Areleus " The Great Emperor Of Rome " and many others are all practitioners of the philosophy.
You might not know them but It's to demonstrate the greatness of the philosophy " - "
In the practice of Stoicisms, there are four main cardinal virtues : Wisdom, Temperament, Justice and Courage.
And as a practitioner of stoicism myself ( Ryan's life ) , I knew of the great advantage of the skill.
Human and other intellectent life-forms in general, will inevitably face all sorts of temptative pleasures throughout their life.
And most people will eventually succumb in one way or another to pleasure, ending with the devaluation of their true being.
Much like to the current people of this world, including both the old and young.
Peace was given to the young by the time they were born and the old all happy due to the victory of the war.
This lead to drowsiness as nearly all humans, forgot about the looming threat that are projecting upon them.
Well it's not their fault though. They were born in a safe society. The threats from demons weren't much, and only dungeons and portals are active.
Even the Majins, who are humans or beings contracted to humans does not stir much trouble until the start of the academy this year.
Right back to skill.
' The ability to set my self-direct is great ' I thought.
Remembering all the time I had to willed myself to put in effort was hard. Although I wasn't unhappy with it, It was still quite miserable to keep the mental capacity to complete tasks.
Either my body or mind wouldn't want to put in work as it's easier to just laze around instead.
No kidding it was hard times.
A smile crepted on my face.
' Everything will be so much easier now ' .
Walking out of the training ground. I went back to the surface.
'' clak clak clak clak "
Footsteps of my foot can be heard walking up, akin to being the entrance of a new being.
Feeling the heat on my body, I looked at the sun.
' Blazing hot star ' was the only image I see. Feeling it's burn I quickly put my head back down.
Turning my head farward, I soon saw blurry human figures, ahead. They were walking from the mansion entrance into the complex.
' I should hurry ' I thought, as I saw the familiar figure of my family, my mom and dad.
Speeding up my transition, I rushed to see my family whom my being, after the fused isn't fully accustomed yet.
