Child from the Dungeon

Chapter 251: Ki Cultivating

[ 10:30 ]

[ EStadium, 'Prodigy Center Academy' Contestant's Training Hall ]

The entire PCA students are in the Hall, meditating as Agniz coached them on cultivating their Ki.

" The Ki is the very Tangible Force of Energy that exists within one's body. "

" It is already there in every living creature, from whence they're born, an inner life force generated by our internal organs. " Agniz says it to the PCA kids, as they meditate to sense their own Ki.

"( It's hard..., I don't sense... )" Carol and Carlos try to feel it, as well as the other kids who struggle to do so.

But still, despite sof their struggles, sof them also can.

"( I feel it. )" Slade feels it, he feels his own Ki.

"( I feel strong, I felt stable... )"

"( How foolish I am, to think 'this' exists... )"

"( An energy that was already produced by us when we're born, an energy that cby default during the process of our birth. )"

"( Yet as we live, this energy is forgotten, it was under our foot all along. )"

"( Seen yet unseen at the stime, for we only see what's before and beyond us, not thinking of what's below. )"

"( How... )" Slade felt it, he felt his Ki produced in such a rush, as his body began to circulate it, spreading the energy to all of his body parts, heightening his senses, thanks to his focus.

Slade began to see lights around him while his eyes closed, in his vision, he saw that it was not just him that able to develop this.

< Status: >

< Ki Cultivating in Progress. >

"( I can feel the flow, it's force... )" Donovan says to himself.

"( It spread to my body so rapidly, like a stream of water like a waterfall, hard waterfall. )"

"( Damn, is it justor I'm kinda quick in this, what's going on... )"

< Congratulations, User Donovan had fully unlocked the Ki Energy. >

< KP (Ki Points) added to the feature. >

"( Whoa, whoa, that fast... )"

< Of course, remember the level now, User Donovan... >

< Since the User is already at a higher level, obtaining things like this might be easier. >

As it happened, Agniz with his [Ki Sense], senses which of them can produce it, two of them are on top of her sight right now.

"( This Slade is quite a talented one, no wonder he's the Leader of the Contestants, all of them are moved by him. )"

"( He surely had potential, just like Donovan there. )" Agniz looks at Donovan, whose Ki streams inside of him fluidly.

"( I've never seen a person cultivating Ki as fast as him as if his 'human body' was made perfectly for cultivation. )"

"( Aside from that, this remindsof what he looks like when Duncan first pulls him out from the Double Dungeon since he was found there. )"

"( I asshis body works differently than ours in the first place. )" Agniz sighs, walking around sensing the growth of the PCA students' cultivation.

" Unlike the Mana, one needs to be granted a body that absorbs its energy from natural environments, it can be done by hard training or perhaps an experiment, or it's just given genetically by your ancestors like all of you Westerios kids do. "

" Your Mana Energy and Magic Ability is a powerful source if you have the latent talents from your parentage and are given much knowledge on how to explore its capabilities. "

" But, as you might know, your Royals had kept much knowledge of it from you all, to sustain their dominance, they kept the secrets of magic to themselves and only let you learn the ones they agreed to share. "

" You have been indoctrinated by society, to only depend on one source. "

" Because of that, perhaps sof you might have a hard tcultivating because you're already used to the sense of Mana, your senses might not be able to catch a glimpse of your Ki. "

" Despite that, despite your upbringing, the one I'm going to teach you is different. "

" In Easterion, we taught the ways of Ki to everyone since it's the only way to defend ourselves against the Monsters there. "

" So we shared the knowledge because of survival, for despite our greed for power, we can't do things alone against any danger. "

"( I see... )" Carlos thinks about this, realizing the reason why he struggles, which is unlike him in the usual way.

"( I've been comforted with things that I've learned so far, makingfull. )"

"( My current status, preventsfrom even thinking about learning new things, things outside the norm like this. )" Carlos says, he begins to quickly adjust by emptying his Mana and decides to meditate further, to find a glimpse sight of his Ki energy.

"( There you are..., I was right on emptying myself... )"

"( Now Ki, feedwith your strength, allowto taste your energy. )" Carlos says as he begins to feel his Ki growing, fed on him in a large portion, it began to fill him instantly as his Ki Energy leaked out of him, creating a great aura that almost everyone could feel and disturbed by it.

" What the- " the Oniro brothers and the other ACA Students, seeing it all with the greatest of dread, an unparalleled unleashed amount of Ki Energy, released by a Westerios Royal Boy.

< Subject Carlos' Ki Energy Cultivates exponentially. >

< User begin to- > Read Web s Online Free - Fire

Before the System could say anything, Donovan felt Carlos' energy pressure, his Ki was on a different level as if his body was that strong from the start.

< Ki Domination Effect Applied >

< User will feel nausea and migraine due to the pressure. >

"( This powerful... )" Donovan had a nosebleed, along with the other PCA Students nearby, even the ACA Students fell prey to Carlos' Ki dominance.

" It's too much! " Carlos says as it happened.

" It's too much, I can't-! " Carlos struggles to contain it which makes Agniz have to interfere, plunging at him, using her hand to hit him in the stomach, continuing with her fingers touching Carlos in sof his body parts.

[ Acupuncture Technique, Leakage Seal ]

Using acupuncture, Agniz touched Carlos but realized sof his body points, felt different than most boys of his age. Making her rethink for a bit as she tries so many acupuncture techniques before Carlos' Ki Energy Leak is solved.

" *Pant* " Agniz finished her work, subduing Carlos after making sure he was stable.

" It seems things will get difficult, from now on. "

" To think this Westerios Royal could cultivate such Ki. " Agniz says to herself.

( Meanwhile. )

" What the hell is that? " the Knights asked as they felt Carlos' Ki Leak, beginning to track the source and approaching the Hall. The Knights were already close, but they were held by Principal Axel who cleared out the misunderstanding for them.

"( These knights, if they know we're secretly teaching Ki to Elysium Haven kids, then we're going to have a big trouble. )"

"( Thank goodness, they still can't define the taste of the energy, otherwise they could immediately tell this to their Royal Houses. )" Principal Axel says, returning to his place nearby.

" So, this is Ki...? " said a girl who watched from the skies.

" I can see why we Royals feared this, those who can learn both are dangerous... "

" Interesting..., perhaps I should see it more in the Battle four days later. " the girl flees from the skies.

Extra:

The Royals forbids the practice of Ki from the Easterion Immigrants.

Thanks to that, many disguised their use of Ki, ensuring them from being persecuted by the Elysium Haven Country's rule, specifically made to persecute those who practiced this.

Well, ever since the secrecy, the Royals began to forget the threat of this anymore and perhaps becmore lenient of the threat as they rarely felt the difference in use anymore.

The Easterion Immigrants and their new generation had also developed the power of Mana, combining it with their Ki, it has been done secretly throughout generations and publically returned to the surface when the 'Amalgam Community Academy' was made, despite its controversial start that challenged the rule on persecuting Ki Users.

That's why the ACA even got the chance to compete in the Tournament, for their rise to the surface returned the ways of the Ki in the ears of Westerios people, especially those in Elysium Haven.
