Eternal Instincts : A demon's journey to the peak

Back to the basics

Back to the basics

Sep 17, 2023

Lunar starts talking “So I’ll tell you about the basics first. There are a total of nine ranks of power and within these nine ranks of power there are nine subranks of power. These ranks are called Skies and the subranks are called Clouds. People start off at the first cloud of the first sky and when their energy bead fills up, all the energy stored inside of it comes out and rushes throughout their body while assimilating with their blood, bones and even muscles which greatly strengthens them. Then the space inside of the energy bead increases and you would need more energy to rise another cloud. After going through this process they reach the second cloud and the same thing happens again and again. But after reaching the ninth cloud of the first sky, when rising once more the increase in power would be much more significant and you would reach the first cloud of the second sky which is stronger than the ninth cloud of the first sky. As such you could reach the ninth cloud of the ninth sky, if you have the talent that is. Did you understand all that? ”


Aziel nods his head and Lunar continues “ Good. Now about magic. Energy and magic are two completely different things. Everyone can absorb energy but Magic is rarely awakened in people. Even many talented people would only awaken their magic once they reach the sixth cloud of the first sky and many would never awaken magic in their whole life.This is because one would need to have a Mana Heart to do magic and many don't even awaken them. But you have extremely high talent in magic since you awakened your Mana Heart at the third cloud. Moving on the heart of most living creatures has four chambers but mana could only be stored in some of them based on one’s talent. You awakened a three chambered Mana Heart meaning you can have control over three types of magic since mana can be stored in three chambers of your heart. I recommend you first find out which three Magic types you have control over.”


Aziel asks “And how do I do that?” Lunar gets a slight smirk on his face and screams “We begin your training !!”


Lunar asks Aziel to try and control the energy inside of his body to the best of his abilities. Aziel has to sit in complete meditation and try his best to focus his brain to gain control of the energy but it was all to no avail. Lunar cheers him up saying that it takes a very long time for people to get control of their energy. After hours of no results they head back to the water body to get some water and have a fun bath and with Lunar’s knowledge of instinctuals he could finally hunt for food. Aziel would spend his time by meditating from when he wakes up till Afternoon and goes for a hunt after that which would take up a lot of time. He would then head toward the water body to fetch some water and would cook the hunt and fall asleep.


After a week of constant efforts of hunting and meditating he was finally able to move his energy out of his Energy Bead but not completely control it yet. It took him a great amount of Mental power to be able to pull even that much off. After that achievement Lunar tells him to now control that energy and bring it up to his eyes. 


As he continues to meditate everyday, it would become easier and easier for him to control the energy he had. The reason was not because he got used to it but because his Mental Power would grow. With two more weeks of time, he had grown closer to Lunar and even managed to control the energy all the way to his neck. During this time Lunar told him to stay in the third cloud until he had a basic control over magic. 


Lunar tells him that it would be harder to control his energy the farther away it goes from his Energy Bead and that it would get exponentially harder the further away it moves. Aziel also tried to push the energy out of his body but it seemed near impossible. Lunar told him that with enough mental power he could one day even push energy and control it outside his body.


Aziel would regularly go on hunts for third cloud or lower ranked instinctuals and would run if he sees any instinctual higher ranked as it was basically suicide. 


A month had now passed and Aziel was sitting in meditation like usual. His energy was now just a slither away from reaching his eyes. He tried the best he could and focused solely on the energy and it finally reached his eyes. “I did it !!!!” he shouts while jumping up and down. Lunar gets startled by his sudden scream and asks him what happened. “ I got my energy to reach my eyes !!” He shouts. Lunar then seems more surprised than Aziel himself “ What !? You were already able to control your energy until your eyes !! That’s an unprecedented speed. But that aside now that you have done that, your next task is to assimilate the energy within your eyes.


Aziel’s excitement immediately dies down and he sits down grumpily. “ Hey now, no need to get upset. You did a good job okay.” Lunar says while floating around him. He then lets out a sigh“ I forget Aziel is still a kid. Looking at him fight instinctuals makes me think he's a grown adult fighting for his life.” he thinks in his head. He then goes back to Aziel cheering him on for his achievement.
