Chapter 14: Starlight Element
Night Family,
Lord Martha is impressed by Jeremy's words.
She then said, "Good, then I'll be looking forward to your growth." After saying that she left the place.
Ron Night said, "My son, you must not disappoint her. She has given a life-changing gift to you."
"I know my father. I'll be practising hard hereafter," Jeremy assured him.
"Shouldn't you inform the Central University 14's representative?" Nora reminded him about something all of a sudden.
"Yeah, I almost forgot about it," Ron answered.
"Father, I think we should wait before they contact us. Lord Martha needs time to inform them first," Jeremy said to his father.
"Okay," Ron agreed.
Then they spoke about a few more things before he told them that he was going to train privately. Night Family Estate has training facilities.
The common ones are used by the guards. The advanced ones are used by his parents. Jeremy is going to use this training room.
His parents agreed to his decision. They can understand that their son wants to figure out his ability.
Shortly afterwards,
Jeremy arrived at the training room. The training room is located next to Ron Night's Study Room.
The room was built of special metals that could withstand heavy training.
Jeremy enters the passcode which his father gave him earlier.
Creak!
The door in front of him opened automatically. A wide spacious training room came into view.
Jeremy then walks inside. The door behind him shut automatically. His gaze swept across the place. The room was built wide enough.
Because you can train here with your lifeline beast.
He then walks to the console panel to set the settings. Then he activated the function.
Swish!
A Metallic Puppet body appears above the platform. It's target practice. The Puppet won't be able to move or react.
Jeremy then comes in front of the puppet body. With a thought, a bluish-white energy covers his right palm. Since he has named his lifeline beast as Starlight Beast.
He decides to use the same term for the bluish-white energy as well. Hereafter, he will call it the starlight energy or element.
The starlight energy covers his palm like a thin layer. A sharp glint flashes in his eyes. He is going to witness the power of his lifeline beast ability.
He then struck out the starlight palm at the chest of Metallic Puppet.
When the starlight palm comes in contact with the metallic surface. A powerful heat was generated, combined with brute force behind the palm.
Ka#boom!
It caused an explosion. The Metallic Puppet body is a basic target practice set. Which has the strength of Tier-2, 5'th Rank's Defensive Power.
Yet, It wasn't able to withstand the starlight element power. Jeremy's eyes flickered. If not for his Supreme Combat Body Talent, the physique's defence might be like this.
But the starlight ability, which he got several minutes ago, was able to cause this much damage soon. So Jeremy was satisfied.
Then he tries out covering the left hand with a start light energy as well. Jeremy already got a feeling that. The Starlight element could be deadly at close combat If he learns some proper martial arts.
But he has liked to use a katana blade since he was young. He wonders whether he could imbue starlight energy into the katana blade.
As this idea comes to his mind. He quickly wants to try it out.
Jeremy takes out the Black Katana. He is going to do a target practice on a Metallic Puppet. He then again activates a new set.
A new Metallic Puppet body appears above the platform.
Jeremy slowly controlled the starlight energy out of his body. He tried to channel it to the katana blade.
When the Starlight energy comes in contact with the blade. The blade flickers for a moment. The Katana was not ordinary. It was made by a master.
His father gave it to him when he was young. So, he always knew that the blade had special characteristics. Seeing that it was able to absorb a small amount of starlight energy.
Jeremy realises that he can indeed imbue starlight energy into the Katana blade. Right now, he is trying hard to make the starlight energy cover the whole blade.
But halfway through the control was broken. The channelling was cut off, and the starlight energy disappeared from the blade.
Jeremy realises that he needs constant practice to achieve good control. But he is confident in his awakened talent.
He believes in the Supreme Combat Body. He can achieve good control over the starlight element within a week.
So he put back his katana blade. Then he started focusing on hand combat training.
30 minutes later,
Jeremy stopped the training. The starlight energy inside the mental zone was gone. He needs time to recover. So he decided to leave.
After entering the passcode, he walked out of the training room. Then he soon returned to his room and entered the bath to take a shower.
The bath lasted for another 20 minutes. Jeremy then changes into comfortable clothes before going to bed to lie down.
Time passed,
Ron Night is in the Governor's office. He learnt that the Elite Mercenary Teams have encountered the Tier-3 Corrupted Beasts.
They are more than 10 in number. Each of them was found in different places, hiding. But the Mercenary Teams were able to catch them and ended their life.
Ron sighed inwardly. He was glad that they were able to clear this menace. Before it could become an actual threat to the surrounding settlements.
Beep!
Just as he was going through the reports. He receives a call from Mr.Kim, who is a representative from Central University 14.
Ron attends the call right away.
"Governor Ron, I just received an update from the. Looks like Lord Martha has taken a liking to your son's talent."
"She recommended your son's name. I don't know what happened. But the higher-ups have agreed upon some changes. The treatment of your son will be set high. It equals S-level Talent."
"Such treatment ensures protection and confidentiality" Mr Kim's voice sounded from the other end.
Ron Night is listening with somewhat relief on his face. Lord Martha acted sooner than he had expected.
