Within the midst of a darkish forest coated in black mist, 4 individuals had been sitting subsequent to an enormous hearth. 

Every of them was drastically totally different from one another. One was a bull, one was a cat looking for a method out of this straightforward state of affairs as quickly as potential.

The third was a mysterious man, with apparently nice energy and plenty of hidden talents in addition to the horrible incidents that he delivered to this world.

The fourth, alternatively, was totally different from the others in that he was solely taking the primary steps on his journey. The extra Zayne immersed himself on the earth of the Fallen Destiny, the extra he realized that his path suited him.

Crackle. Crackle. Crack.

The crackling sound of dry twigs snapping below the hearth unfold round, creating a nice environment. Neither the chilly wind nor the eerie black fog may disturb them, quite the opposite, it solely separated them from the remainder of the world, permitting them to concentrate on their targets.

Initially, the calmest was Edvin, clearly, he was the strongest right here, so he had nothing to fret about. Even Toruf, the Arisen Grade Creature was not an opponent for him, he was far past the comprehension of the others.

Nonetheless, even Kota, who was extra nervous than the remaining, steadily calmed down, in any case, she was in deep trouble first. This was anticipated for the reason that taste of well-cooked crocodile meat may elevate anybody to the heavens.

“Rattling! That is truly scrumptious!” Toruf exclaimed, consuming the large piece of meat, it was one in every of many who had disappeared into his mouth previously jiffy.

“Hey! How are you going to eat a lot?!” Kota exclaimed unhappily, now not afraid to behave aggressively in direction of Toruf, “I nonetheless have not completed the primary piece and you’ve got already taken the sixth!”

“Hahaha! Would not that make sense? I am a lot greater than you, so I must also eat extra! Zayne, Edvin, am I proper?” Toruf smirked.

Edvin nodded silently, “Yeah, that is sensible. It is each a plus and a minus of getting a giant physique. Dimension alone offers you energy and toughness, however to keep up that form you want sources. Merely put, tens of hundreds of energy.”

“See? One slice shall be sufficient for you, however actually not for me!” Toruf stated majestically earlier than swallowing the present piece and shifting on to the subsequent.

Regardless of Toruf’s greatest efforts, there was nonetheless loads of meat left of the crocodile, sufficient for a complete group of troopers to eat, although even they would not have the ability to devour the entire thing.

“Energy? Is it that straightforward?” Zayne gave Edvin a questioning look, “Kota stated you tossed Toruf apart with a easy palm strike. Would not that imply you are stronger than him, although you are a lot smaller?”

Edvin nodded, “That is proper. I am a lot stronger than Toruf.” Edvin stated calmly, with none vanity. Toruf did not trouble to say something because it was a reality, and in an actual struggle, he would undoubtedly lose to Edvin. 

“So…?” Zayne raised an eyebrow.

Edvin sighed, “You recognize, you had been in a position to take him down too, although you are solely in Terror Grade, it is virtually a miracle. Nonetheless, I can not name it a real miracle, as a result of it has a proof. From the facility you used to the Second For of your dance, however none of that’s as vital as one issue.”

Zayne stared intently at Edvin, ready for a solution.

Edvin took his time, he simply ripped off a large piece of meat from a part of the crocodile and stated, “Power.”

“Ah…? You imply mana?” Zayne tilted his head in a confusion.

Kota and Toruf checked out one another as mocking smiles appeared on their faces. What Zayne was saying was actually silly to them, however they did not touch upon it in any method, leaving it as much as Edvin.

“No… You continue to have not found out how this world works…” Edvin shook his head, “Effectively, in that case, you are fortunate I am right here. Look, there are two kinds of vitality, inside and exterior.”

Zayne nodded with a curious expression, “What’s the objective of exterior and inside vitality?”

“You already know.” Edvin calmly replied, “Because it’s simply terminology. In reality, the exterior vitality is mana, therefore the facility of your expertise, the interior vitality determines the general situation of your physique, therefore your bodily efficiency.”

Edvin checked out Kota, then at Toruf, “Clearly, these two have extra inside vitality, nevertheless, additionally they have exterior vitality, it is simply that it is a lot much less. Additionally, the facility of vitality is that if Kota had been to achieve Arisen Grade, she would have an opportunity of profitable in opposition to Toruf.

She would nonetheless be weaker, however a lot sooner… Effectively, I assume that is not one thing I ought to let you know, since you utilize an identical combating type your self.”I believe you must check out

“Hmm… I see… And we select find out how to distribute our vitality ourselves, proper?” Zayne checked out Edvin.

He realized that the vitality Edvin was speaking about had been within the type of Standing Factors all alongside. Nonetheless, what was he speculated to do now? 

Zayne wasn’t positive what would occur sooner or later, however he realized that he most likely would not have entry to Standing Factors like different Gamers, no less than not in full.

Edvin shook his hand backward and forward, as if Zayne’s assumption was each true and never.

“Look, earlier than you requested me to let you know extra concerning the Woke up Course of and the way Toruf decided your and Kota’s Grade…” Edvin muttered with a relaxed expression.

Zayne nodded whereas his centered blue eyes mirrored the flames from the hearth.

“This stuff are related. In reality, till you undergo the Woke up Course of, you do not have the physique management to distribute vitality by yourself, although it appears Travellers have a way of doing it, it would not final eternally…” Edvin stated enigmatically.

Then, he continued, “To distribute vitality, you could do sure actions. For instance, practising will make your vitality turn out to be inside whereas studying spells will direct your vitality to the outer layer. Nonetheless, after the Woke up Course of, every part adjustments.”

Edvin took a deep breath, “I will not provide you with all the main points, in any case, it’s important to determine all of it out your self and undergo the Chaos Trial. Nonetheless, I’ll let you know that after the Woke up Course of, you’ll notice the place else your vitality goes. In spite of everything, moreover the outer and interior paths, there’s a third… Effectively, partly you already learn about it.”

Though Edvin wasn’t saying something instantly, however solely telling what Zayne had already encountered, Zayne nonetheless understood every part clearly.

‘This unusual energy is certainly a 3rd pathway of vitality, however, I’ve no management over it in any respect… Nonetheless, as soon as I am going via the Chaos Trial, then every part will turn out to be clear to me, proper?’ Zayne contemplated, with a sophisticated expression.

It was arduous for him to comprehend how the brand new world labored, Fallen Destiny was now not a recreation to him, and Zayne had already totally accepted that. Particularly after the latest occasions involving Chaos’s. 

“Additionally, there’s one thing else.” Edvin talked about, “All three of the sources via which the vitality is channeled have a single circuit, so… they’re all related. It is a measure of your energy, not together with your expertise, expertise, intelligence, and different exterior components.”

Edvin glanced at Toruf, then he checked out Zayne, “All of it creates what we name an aura. Those that have handed have some ways of figuring out what Grade the creature in entrance of them is, however the quickest and most typical is the aura, although it’s the least correct.”

“Nonetheless… Toruf decided mine and Kota’s Grade with out error…” Zayne muttered with broad eyes.

Edvin nodded, “Yeah, after I stated it is the least correct method I meant precisely what I stated. It doesn’t suggest that utilizing this methodology you may be unsuitable usually. The likelihood of error, relying on components, is 1 in 1000.”

Then, Edvin pointed at Kota, “Look, she’s additionally on Terror Grade, however in case you use every part you could have you may defeat her. There may be some margin of error, however Toruf and I can inform which of you is stronger simply by your auras, although we’ve got different methods.”

Crackle.

Edvin lifted off the bottom, appeared up on the blue moon, and took a deep breath.

“You haven’t but gone via the Woke up Course of, so that you have no idea find out how to see the auras of others and management your individual. Nonetheless, I’ve lengthy since realized this artwork.” Edvin stated coldly.

“Earlier than you go to Chaos Trial, let me show one thing to you. That is one thing you possibly can obtain… Aura is not only a mark of our vitality, it is the embodiment of our energy!”

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

On the similar second, the air rippled, as the bottom shook barely, with Edvin because the epicenter. From his physique, voluminous streams of crimson vitality emerged, spreading all through the Darkish Mist Forest.

Zayne gulped, as a chill ran down his again, and goosebumps ran down his physique. Kota instinctively pressed herself to the bottom as her fur stood up, and Toruf took a number of steps again.

The crows perched on the branches in addition to the a whole bunch of beasts lurking within the forest close by scattered away, unwilling to face a monster with such a horrible aura.
