„Really i kinda wanted to see her CT at full power" i think
„Nice spar i say"
„mhm" she says
„Noah nice one" Zvonimir says
„thanks"
„come with us next class is.." he says
„..are you stupid"Bartol says
„how cant you remember your most hated class"
„ahh barrier techniques"
„come with us"
10 mins later
„so what is the chant for expanding an curtain"
„you Zvonimir"
„really do i have to"
„yes"
„darker-„
„wrong"
„You new kid do you know it by chance"
„i can try"
„emerge from darkness darker than darkness purify of whic is impure" i say putting some cursed energy as something like an black liquid envelopes the classroom
„good"
„Noah you get 5 points"
„thanks" i say not even knowing what the points do
„nice one" Bartol says
I cancel the curtain and note the ability for later
„so class a curtain is used for what" the teacher asks
„It lures out cursed spirits and m sit so non sorcerers cant see inside"
„you get 5 points"
„nice"
35 mins later
„class thats it for today you can go when the bell rings" he says leaving the classroom
„how much points do you have Noah" Bartol asks
„i dont know" i answer
„tap the blue circle on your watch"
„ahh nice ive got 8"
„is that good"
„not that good but youre new so its good" he says
„how much do you have"
„175" he say nonchalantly
„ok" i say
Internally this is probably the strongest guy here
10 mins later
„so has anyone managed to do something with their technique"
„here" Bartol says going up to the bord
„ive learned how to do a triple punch with one mowement"
„go ahead" a female teacher says
„so i use my technique lagback to make a first punch and then i quickly disable making the punch never continue then i do that again and finally i punch normally releasing the other two attacks wich make san so called triple attack" he explains
„great one son"
„anyone else"
„you new kid have ya learned your CT"
„yeah kind of"
„come on give it a go"
„sure"
„so what ive realised my CT is Soul syphon so that means after beating a spirit i can absorb the soul and become stronger"
„good anything else"
„with my technique i can also drain CE but i have to make direct contact with the opponent so it is a risky strategy"
„nice you get lets say im feeling generous 8 points" she says
„damn" i say
„thanks"
After that i zoned out and realized something
„i could make an amateur domain expansion"
„imbuing some of my CT could make the curtain have some of my technique"
„but wouldnt the opponent be able to escape" i think
„but i could make everything pitch black and after activation i could burst around dragging them around to make them disoriented"
„i need to try that later"
„thats all for today you can go" teach says
I realise someone is waiting in front of the door
„Noah hows first day been" the man i realise Leo says
„good"i say avoiding eye contact
„why you ignoring me" he says
Out to him i look like im shy but internally im shiting my pants
This guy is like an god what is that amount of cursed energy
Instinctivly i freeze
„buddy you look like you have seen an ghost"
„5 mins later i am in my dorm"
„well im not scared anyomore at least" as i look at my hand i notice its shaking
„well that guy is something else"
„lets try that domain"
„emerge from darkness darker than darkness purify of wich is impure" i say closing my eyes directing my cursed energy into my hands and putting my CT behind it
Boom
a not so loud boom is heard as i fly back into the door
blagh
„spit comes out of my mouth"
„damn what the hell was that" i say realising my hand is burnt
[Would you like to heal wounds YES/NO]
„yes"
[Healing will take 8 hours would you like to sleep]
„yes"
[How long would you like to sleep]
„its 7:30"
„11 hours"
11 hours
Waking up i sit
„new day again"
„waking up in a new world"
„the history repeats itself"
„so what today"
„picking up my watch i see what we have today"
„so its practically the same every day but on Friday we only have one three hour class"
„what day is it"
„its Friday so lets get ready" i say opening an wooden closet and finding some light blue and grey clothes
„finally a new hoodie" i say putting on my new clothes and i see four pairs of shoes and they are all labeled
„indoors,outdoors,reserve pair,Friday"
„so i guess ill take outdoors and Friday" i say pulling out an black bag out of the closet thats just big enough to store an notebook and a pair of shoes
„when does school start"
„in 20 minutes" i say looking at a clock that has labeled on it when the first hour of school starts
„lets go on then" i say putting the bag on an shoulder and following the instructions to head over to the gymnasium
5 mins later
I put my bag into one of the closets and head into the place
„didnt realise it was this big"
„so how many do you think he brought this time" Zvonimir asks Bartol
„1 is the average"Bartol says
„youre boring" Zvonimir says
„Noah do you know what happens every Friday" Zvonimir says
„nah" i answer looking up at the open ceiling and i realize there i san transparent veil around the school
„ill let you see"
10 mins later
The man Known as Leo and the pe teacher descend from the sky on some sort of energy shield and there are 4 cursed spirits in energy cages floating around him
„4 thats nice"
„what do you mean that never happened before"
„observe i say looking at the spirits"
[All of the opponents are stronger than host by 300%]
Gulp
„well shit" i say
„everyone group up in groups of 3 each"
„Bartol and Fran" Zvonimir says
„sure"
„Petra and Tena" a girl says
„fuck yeah" Petra says
„Pavel and ….."Leon says looking for someone
„you new kid" leon says
„alright" i say
„everyone make your way into one of four designated places"
„were in place 3 come here" pavel says in a goofy tone whilst leon jumps on his back
„these guys are idiots"
„wait a bit" i say concentrating on leon
„holy shit" i think as i see that leons cursed enrgy is one fourth of Leos
„that guy i need that energy" i think
„Noah those are your allies you cant do that"
„well fine" i say to myself
„everyone im casting the barrier technique now be ready"
„start" he says as walls of energy rise up to divide the teams and the cursed spirits are let out
„leon" Pavel says
„got it" he says as i sense cursed energy going throughout leons body and then it concentrates and gives him an red aura
Raghhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The awful looking spirit starts runing at us and leon beins to charge at the creature and pavel gathers energy into his right arm
While i am runing to the right side of the creature as leon punches it but it barely moves a little
„what" leon says
„shit pavel i need help" Leon says as the spirit grabs him and goes to slam him in the ground and an force begins to pull the creatureat pavel but he looks like he is struggling
„shit its my turn" i say runing to the creature as itshakes of pavels power and slams leon into the ground and it goes to punch him
„syphon" i say placing a hand on the creature andi begin to drain its energy
„raggggggggggggggggggggh" the sound is heard as leon is thrown into the barrier
Blagh
„shit" i say
„PAVEL i dont know your technique but do something" i say trying to think of something
Burst is still not usable fain i dont think it would do anything maybe maybe
Black flash
„i only have one chance at this it better work"
„numbers seconds miliseconds go lower" i think closing my eyes as the spirit goes to eat me
„Black flash" i yell out as i punch the cursed spirit in what i think is its jaw
Red and balck sparks flash around me as the lower part of the spirits head is blown away
„nice" i say
„that should kill it"i say falling back relaxing
„NOOOOOOAHHHHHHHH" Pavel yells
Turning around i see that the cursed spirit has regenerated and is going to eat me
„how did it survive" i say
„what do i have left" i try to think of something
„nothing" i say as my head goes down and i give up
„sorry for being weak everyone"
„wait" i say jumping back barely avoiding the spirit
putting my hands in the dhyana mudra hand sign i chan5t
„Amateur DOMAIN EXPANSION: ETHEREAL ASCENDANCE" I yell out concentrating and creating an full black veil around me an the monster whilst imbuing as little of my technique into the veil as i could
„this i san last ditch effort and im glad it hasnt blown up in my face" i say
„this is nothing compared to an real domain expansion or even a normal barrier but it will do for you"
„i notice that my cursed energy begins to rise whilst sensing that the cursed energy of the spirit begins to decrease
The monster goes to run into me but i notice its getting weaker little by little and me felling more energised every second
„full power little shit" i say whilst letting my cursed energy go rampant making me stronger
punching the spirit i can see it feels the punches
POW
Thud thud
POW
5 mins later
A husk of an creature is left whilst i dispell my amateur domain and i absorb the soul of the creature
[Semi grade two soul has been consumed plus 3 to every stat except luck]
„finally" i say spitting out a little blood
„leon is going to be allright" Pavel says
„good"
„just be safe okay" Pavel says looking at my body thats covered in purple blood
„Everyone nice job for defeating now you can go home"
„see ya Monday" Leo finishes
I head over to my dorm grab some spare clothes and go back to shower
„amateur domain expansion really is strong but it truly i san gamble kind of like black flash"
„i need to be nearly full of my cursed energy to try and activate it it working i san whole another thing"
„that truly is an last resort move"
„but it feels me with joy knowing i can get strong here too"
„i dont truly understand my technique yet but i have some basics"
1. Consuming an strong spirits soul is more efficient than lots of weak ones
2. Spirits fell pain when i syphon their energy
3. Direct touch is needed for it to work
„its the same feeling as when i was leveling up before"
„but the feeling of becoming stronger because of domain expansion is addictive"
„i should probably try to train my technique"
„but how"
Ding
„got it"
10 mins later
Currently i have bought myself an energy talisman
„so this works like an storage unit" i say to myself
„in theory but this costs me 7 points a day so i only have two days" i deadpan
so if i put my cursed energy into this with syphon i should be abe to take it out
„nice" i voice out seeing my theory become a fact
so if i do this a lot i should be able to become faster at it lets go and do that
put energy in
put energy out
energy in
energy out
in
out
….silence
Noah has become focused at his work so let him be
10 hours later
„ok thats enough for now" i say pulling the enrgy into myself
„sleep"i say falling on my bed
8 hours later
„wakey wakey"
„what the fuck" i say getting up seeing leo standing infornt of me
„whoa waach you language"Leo says jokingly
„sure but why are you in my room"
„Nothing much…"
„just about the domain expansion you pulled off" Leo says ina n serious tone
„ahh about that…"
„well i know it wasnt an real one but somethign less"
„i call it amateur domain expansion" i say
„nice one but how do yyou even know what a domain expansion is"
„im gonna have to pass on that one" i say
„k"
K didnt know dude was that chill
„everyones allowed to have secrets"
„i aint telling anyone about this so keep it to yourself"
„see ya" i wave
„that guy always scares me" i say
„what am i going to do now" i ask myself
„ maybe i could go train a little"
„dont feel like that now"
My syphon has become about 15% faster
„what what what" i think
„well i need to get to 20 dex so i can use burst comfortably"
Gwtting out of the room i go back to the cursed tool shop
„here"i say putting the talisman back into its place and i look at my points
9 more allright
Walking through the hallway i begin to get hungry and got and grab an sandwich frim the canteen
„thanks" turning around i see Zvonimir and Bartol eating together
„Noah come here"
„sure"
„so how did it go" he asks me
„well i killed it so good"
„nice one"
„how is your technique going" Bartol says
„id say pretty good syphon is about 15% faster now"
„thats good"
„have you heard about The A.S.A going to war with Frozen hell on earth" Zvonimir asks Bartol
„yeah hats crazy" Bartol says
„what is it youre talking about"
„let me explain"
„first A.S.A stands for American Sorcerer association"
„and frozen hell on earth is the north pole where Russian sorcerer association deposits the special grade cursed objects that have somehow turned back into curses"
„so what do you think about it"
„do i have to" i ask
„what do you have to"
„think about it look i dont really care its not my problem"
„oh… well i think its more interesting than anything"
„so anyway Bartol…" Zvonimir says as i drown them out i think „noted"
5 mins later
„Noah wanna spar" Zvonimir asks
„noah…" he says shaking me
„ughhhh.. what"
„wanna spar"
