Chapter 35 - Looming Threat
After both Uncle James and Granny Park exited the room. Zack sighed and thought in his heart. it's unusual not to be scolded by both of them. Then he cleaned the debris that was scattered over the place. Finally, the cleaning is done as he is immersed in his thoughts.
He forgot that his whole body reeks with the smell of sweat. He finally took notice and said to himself, "What is this Smell? He looked all over his body; I got over thrilled by the potential of the lightning element, even that I forgot to take shower". He quickly went for a bath. After an hour bath, He came back and wore casual sweat pants.
He squeezed his hair dry with the towel. His black hair was grown over to his shoulders. After he switched off the lights and completely laid on the bed.
The room was dark. He was silent for a moment then began to check his Scifi-watch. He thought I only got limited access. I cannot find anything from the alliance network.
I started to look for lightning techniques but either I have to register with PARAZAM HUNTER LEAGUE as their Hunter or either should have other I.D such as ARMY FEDERATION or other Association. It's depressing not to have access.
I'm just using the usual credit point's transactions with the Scifi-watch. To buy some stuff or to book train tickets. I do not have friends yet, How good it would be to hang out with them and spend some credit points. I thought I can get some friendship with the people from HANSEN TRAINING CENTRE.
Who would have thought that my batch. This year would admit only six people including me? Zack sighed. My classmates were different. They each got different personalities. It is not suitable for me. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶
He put these thoughts back in his mind and begin to think about important things. Tomorrow is an important day. I got a lot of things to do when I get into the advanced class. He created a To-Do list in his Scifi-watch. The list is encrypted such that no one can get access to the file except him.
I feel my lightning element is just an entry-level. My physical and Soul strength is greater compare to Magical strength which is a lightning element. I heard there will be barriers for every stage. As the person starts to level up from initial to the mid-stage then same to consecutive stages. I have not felt that barrier yet I believe there is room for a lot of improvement.
So the first point in my checklist is to find affinity stones. Either colourless affinity stone like that Dr Mearov used in his research centre or Lightning elemental stone. Zack began to worry.
He said to himself, "I sure got a lot of my problems on my plate. Already it's filled with my inheritance test. I will die if I failed to level up my physic to level 15 and unlock the 7th region of my brain comp completely.
He then quickly edited the 1st point and placed it has 3rd point. My first point is to find a way to level up my physic. 2nd point is to find a way to unlock the 7th region of my brain completely. If I did with the above two points in my checklist. Then I will look for the third point.
I won't voluntarily spend my energy looking for affinity stones unless I got the opportunity. Then he quickly realized. If I can level up my physic. It would be better my soul can level up with physical strength.
I cannot ignore my soul strength. Lastly, I consumed Mercy's Lotus treasure thanks to Uncle but in the future, I have to find my way. He noted to increase his soul strength as the 4th point in his checklist.
Zack thought Sir Lowell McClain is my official mentor. I am sure he will guide me in future. But nobody knows my circumstances. It is paramount for me to level up in every aspect of power soon.
The inheritance spirit never gave me a deadline to level up my physic. I can vaguely felt his presence in my soul. It would be stupid to sit like a duck. I need to work on my own. He quickly removed his worry from his heart and thought.
On other hand, I want to travel across our world. For that I need power. So tomorrow morning I will ask Uncle James's opinion. Whether to contact Sir McClain or not. He once again checked his to-do checklist then he saved it. Soon he fell asleep.
Meanwhile, In Red stone city.
A medieval-looking architectural home. It was constructed using today's era scientific constructional method and rare ores. It is a medieval house but every room in the household is filled with Modern era expensive household items.
There is a banner on top of the house named Frazier. There is a compound surrounded the household. Which is strategically designed and constructed. Several sensors and cameras. Which were unable to see in naked eyes were monitoring the area. Guards dressed in black Suit Took turns to watch the surroundings.
Few people were roaming inside the household silently. They were maids and butlers. Inside one of the well-protected rooms in the medieval house. A person is talking something to a middle-aged man dressed in a tuxedo who looks like a butler.
The outside of the room is equipped with several safety measures. The middle-aged man said, "Young Miss, Family Head wants to talk to you?" Maria Frazier replied, "Uncle Thomas, I said thousand times. I don't want to leave the HANSEN SWORD CENTRE and spend the rest of the time here cooked up until I join the Academy".
Maria Frazier said angrily, "I want to train independently". Her elemental aura started to rise as the two water droplets suspended in the air. Her element is the water element. There is a faint bluish aura surrounds her as she continues to form more droplets.
The butler named Mr Thomas got perplexed he replied, "Relax Young Miss, This time there is the genuine reason; Family Head got some information early in the morning". Then he sighed and said, "This time CRIMSON SWORD HALL from Tier-7 city invited nearby Tier-8 cities training institutions to conduct an exhibition match".
Hearing the name CRIMSON SWORD HALL Maria Frazier's face turned serious and shocked in her heart. She said. "When are they going to conduct that event? Do they invite my training centre?" Butler Thomas replied," I believe it will happen one year later and HANSEN SWORD CENTRE got an invitation today".
Maria Frazier thought No wonder that Ms Key talked about Advance class. Those who were placed in advance class eventually get to participate in the exhibition match.
She finally asked, "So, My father is worried that I will get targeted". Butler Thomas replied, "Yes, Young Miss".. She said, "What if I don't participate in the tournament?" Hearing that Butler Thomas became relaxed he smiled and replied, "Then I will tell Family Head that Young Miss won't participate in the tournament".
