Chapter 9: Ch.9 STATES OF MATTER
He had full control over his unique energy's fundamental states of matter and the transitions between them from 'gas to liquid and liquid to solid'.
And as his mastery over this trait of his mysterious energy increase, his ability to react to any unexpected situation would become almost perfect in the future and when his mastery crosses a certain threshold or reaching a certain level.
he had a feeling that his control over the traits six aspects of MELTING, FREEZING, VAPORIZATION, CONDENSATION, SUBLIMATION, AND DEPOISTION would increase tremendously.
Phase Changes:
[Melting : Solid to Liquid. Freezing : Liquid to Solid. Vaporization : Liquid to Gas. Condensation : Gas to Liquid. Sublimation : Solid directly to Gas. Deposition : Gas directly to Solid.]
[ NOTE :: BLACK CAN ONLY, MANUPLATE HIS ENERGY TO ANY STATE AND FORM AND NOT ANY OTHER TYPE OF ENERGY. LIKE HE CAN MAKE HIS MYSTERIOUS ENERGY TRANSIT FROM GASEOUS STATE TO LIQUID STATE BUT HE CANNOT TURN THE ATMOSPHERIC AIR INTO LIQUID, SINCE HIS TRAIT DOSE NOT ALLOWS HIM TO CONTROL THOSE ELEMENTS ]
And with these six aspects of the traits of his unique energy, he would be able to morph this energy into any form he desired. Giving him innumerable possibilities, Where he would be able react in the best passible way in innumerable unique situations.
He would be able to create things like : vapor, mist, haze, molten, Liquefied and many other.
And Black didn't even need to guess how valuable a traits like this is going to be in the future Battles he would face. Where every second births countless new possibility.
By combining his two trait [DISSONANCE] and [STATES OF MATTER] Black can create many different and unique abilities.
******************
Like for example,
He can use his trait of [Dissonance] to cause *Sensory Discordance* in his enemies and use his trait of [ States of Matter ] to weave his mysterious energy into extremely thin threads just like a spider's silk and use them to control his enemies like a puppeteer.
[ Sensory Discordance : breaks the bond between the sensory system and the brain by causing disharmony between them leaving the victims paralysed ]
Right now he can not cause Discordance between the 7 sense of the body. However as his mastery over his *Dissonance *Trait increases he would be able to do that too.
*******************
He was so excited and hyped when he thought about all these possibilities, that he totally forgot about the fact that he didn't even know how to utilize the first three aspects of his new trait of his unique energy properly.
Apparently at that time Black was so focused on surviving the Hurricane wolf's attack that he didn't even know as to how the multiple layers of energy he had created in haste to counter the wolf's attack got fused together and formed a solid translucent light shield around his skin at the last second.
And when he realised that fact, all his excitement and hype died down in a second. Like someone had poured a bucket of chilling cold water on his body in a freezing winter night.
Feeling quiet flustered and awful but the good thing was there was no one to see his embarrassment.
Except for the injured Hurricane wolf watching him keenly with it's limped eyes. Doing everything It can to hold on to that last thread of it's consciousness. It's will to survive was far greater then he could imagine.
As Black eyes remained locked on the miserable form of the magical beast, he could tell just by looking into those fiery amber colored orbs it still had not given up all hope's even while being paralysed and injured.
Something caused by the mysterious energy's unique trait of *Dissonance* when the energy beam had hit it.
Black took a shaky step towards the fallen beast, his eyes filled with a mix of awe and sorrow.
"Now, we find out what this transformation stage magical beast want." Black said as he saw the wolf's stare at him with a gaze filled with hope and mercy. Pleading for it to be left alive.
To be honest even Black didn't know what to do. He didn't have any enmity with the wolf. He simply ignored the fact that the same wolf had tried to kill him not to long ago taking that simply as something natural.
To grow stronger and evolve they needed resource and to get resource's they needed to kill and what better resource is there for a magical beast then other magical beast, well there are other resource more beneficial for magical beast like Some kind of magical herb or a High-level magistone. However whenever these types of resource do appears all magical beast go after them like savage beast which again result in a bloodbath.
The world of magical beast was cruel and he knew all this from his memory so of course he would think the wolf trying to kill him to evolve was natural but since the wolf failed Black didn't have any desire to kill it either.
After all it was the first living being he had encountered that had shown this much emotions and intelligence.
Yes, he had strength to kill creature's hundreds of years old but being a three days old his mental fortitude was not strong at all against emotions such as sympathy, compassion, pity and mercy.
Black's emotional quotient/emotional intelligence was also comparatively low leaving him even more susceptible to these tumultuous feelings.
So, when he saw the wolf in such wretched state all his thoughts of wanting to kill it if he had any died.
As he approached the creature cautiously in the gloomy lightless space, the ground around it littered with shards of crystallized ice. As he drew closer, a faint glow emanated from the magical beast wounds, and the air grew thick with a scent of ozone and something else, something unidentifiable.
Black knelt beside it on the cold flat ground , his hand hovering just above the glowing marks left by his attack. The creature's breaths grew shallow, the wolf cowed, its body trembling with fear and hope.
"...le....ple.....plea....se...." it said.
Black eyes searched the beast's face for any sign of cunning or deception but he found none. It was a sight that stirred a strange cocktail of emotions within Black - pity, anger, and confusion.
"What do you want?" He murmured, his voice filled with a mix of those tumultuous feelings.
The beast's eyes met his for a brief moment before it finally said,
