Chapter 27 - Chapter 27: Bloody Soil

*Eden is shown crashing into a wall*

Hela: Is that all you have?

Eden: This has only just begun

Eden: *Think* Damn, it's got a crushing force, I can barely feel my arm

Hela: *Thinks* He reacted better than he expected, he withstood the blow without breaking his arm

Eden: Darkness Technique: Dark Flame

*A dark flame attacks Hela, but she manages to avoid the impact*

Eden: How fast

Hela: Not bad kid, but you still have a lot to learn

*Eden spits blood*

Eden: What? At what time?

Hela: It looks like you couldn't perceive my delayed blow

Eden: How is it possible that it has just affected me?

Hela: I'll show you, but first fulfill your punishment

Eden: Yes

*Eden starts doing push-ups*

Hela: *Think* I'm surprised by the resistance she has. His energy seems inexhaustible. Balder did not lie in anything he said, he is a monster still under control, if he manages to enhance all his strength, no one will stop him

Eden: I'm done

Hela: Okay. You know what Zenka energy is, right?

Eden: Yes, and also the different types of energy that exist

Hela: Okay. A moment ago, you made an involuntary move, but it's part of what I want to teach you

Eden: An involuntary movement?

Hela: Yes. When I hit you, your body instinctively focused much of your Zenka energy on your arm, causing none of your bones to be broken. That didn't happen when I threw my punches delayed since they're not very hard to spot

Eden: I see

Hela: You'll first need to learn how to focus your Zenka energy on one point, whether it's your fist, weapons, or elsewhere. Doing so will allow you to have more strength and endurance. Once you learn that you can learn how to use delayed strokes

Eden: Understood

Hela: First, let all your Zenka energy flow through your body

Eden: Okay

*Eden's body begins to expel black energy*

Eden: *Think* Now!

*In an instant Eden expels a gigantic amount of energy*

Hela: *Think* What a huge amount of energy, and it's only part of it? Who the hell is this guy?

Eden: Incredible...

Hela: Is this the first time you've done it?

Eden: No, but it's the first time I've done it consciously

Hela: Now you have a lot of your energy go to a particular point

*The energy of Eden begins to approach his fist*

Hela: Yes, just like that

*The energy goes on and on*

Hela: Huh? Hold on?

*The heart of Eden stops in an instant and falls to the ground*

Hela: Shit

*Hela hits Eden's heart and he breathes again*

Eden: What happened?

Hela: I forgot to warn you. You should always keep a part of your energy in the rest of your body, otherwise it will stop working

Eden: To have said it before

*Eden tries again to get his energy flowing and achieves the goal*

Eden: I made it

Hela: Great, now hit that rock with all you might, but only destroy the inside

Eden: Huh? What are you saying? That's impossible

*Hela makes her energy focus on her hand*

Hela: Just pay attention

*Hela hits a gigantic rock, but no change is shown*

Eden: What have you done?

Hela: Now you'll see

*Hela hits the rock again and splits it in half*

*A hollow rock with a lot of dust inside is shown*

Hela: That thing you see there was the whole inside of the rock. I focused my strength so that I could eliminate its interior, but without affecting its exterior

Eden: Incredible...

*The energy of the fist of Eden fades away*

Eden: What happened?

Hela: It looks like we'll have to solve that problem first

*Hela breaks a rock into several small pieces*

Hela: We'll start with this. Keep your energy focused on your fist as long as possible and destroy as many stones as you can

Eden: Understood

*Hela begins to throw stones at Eden and he begins to destroy them*

*After 10 seconds Eden loses his strength and is very tired*

Hela: Come on, is that all you have? I expected more after you talked so much

Eden: *Sold Out* I Can Still Go On

*The training continues and after a few seconds Eden falls from fatigue*

Eden: Damn it

Hela: Rest, that's all for today

Eden: No, I can still do more

Hela: I told you to rest. If you abuse your energy, Zenka will take its toll later

Eden: It doesn't matter

Hela: It seems that there is something behind so much effort, what do you want?

Eden: I can't tell you, but I must become stronger as soon as possible, please

Hela: Don't you care about the consequences?

Eden: No

Hela: Even if it costs you your life?

Eden: I'm willing to die if necessary

Hela: *Smiles* I like people with a will, but...

*Hela knocks out Eden*

Hela: I hate idiots

*After sleeping for several hours Eden wakes up*

Hela: You seem to like to sleep

Eden: Why did you knock me out?

Hela: I know a lot of idiots just like you, who don't understand with words. So that was the only way to get you to sleep

Eden: Thank you, I guess

Hela: Are you hungry?

Eden: Yes, after so much training I have become incredibly hungry

Hela: In a few minutes my servants will bring the food

Eden: Okay. By the way, why did that god come the other day?

Hela: That god? Ah, you mean Hemord, the boy who came on a horse, right?

Eden: Yes

Hela: Nothing important

Eden: Really? He seemed very worried

Hela: Don't worry, it's just problems of the gods, nothing important

Eden: I see...

*Several skeletons arrive with food*

Hela: You've been late

Eden: *Think* This situation seemed strange to me at first, but it seems that I have gotten used to it

Hela: You can start eating

Eden: Thank you

Eden: *Think* How good this food looks

Eden: Bon appetite... Wow, it's great

*Happy skeletons shown*

Eden: Huh? Are they smiling?

Hela: It seems that your comment made them happy. They can't talk, but I'm sure they'll thank you

Eden: Do you still have your memories?

Hela: Who knows... Death is a hard thing to understand, even for me

*A gigantic dog arrives at the place*

Garm: I'm sorry to interrupt you queen

Hela: What's going on Garm?

Garm: It's an important matter, please join me

Hela: Can't we talk about it later?

Garm: No, I'm sorry

Hela: What a bummer. I'll be right back

Eden: Okay

*Hela and Garm are leaving*

Eden: *Think* Since I got here, I've become much stronger, but how long have I been carrying? It is impossible to know if it is day or night here. How will the others be?

Hela: So, they couldn't do their part, right?

Garm: No queen, everything went as expected by her father

Hela: Got it. By the way, how are things going out there?

Garm: Little by little the world is falling, winter is coming earlier than expected

Hela: I see. So soon that time will come, right?

Garm: That's right
