Weekend...

Black Star Condominium...

     Mansion A, garden…

- Christian Chamberlain (looking at the mansion with sparkling eyes): Awesome! This is a dream house… (heading towards the garden)

In the Garden's leisure area…

- Sir. A (resplendent in a luxurious brown suit and a golden Italian beret, siting at a round table): Your father had an excellent idea Grey...

- Kim Yukimura (dressed in a white sweater and black pants, speaking animatedly while eating): It's true...

- Havanna Thundergaze (her blue dress flowing, sitting nearby, laughing at Kim. Her laughter held both warmth and mischief): What a pig...!

- Sir. A (disgusted, sighs): Where is Christian…

- Christian Chamberlain (in a luxurious blue suit): I'm here, did you miss me? (laughing)

- Drake Grey (sitting with his backpack on the table, glaring at Christian): Did you travel to Aquay in the middle of the academic year?

- Christian Chamberlain (sits, laughing): Of course, Drake, you will also have an opportunity like that, you just have to want it…

- Drake Grey (his annoyance flared): Not all of us are children of one of the Council elders…

- Sir. A (intervened, his patience thinning): Oy Oy, no fighting! Let's get to the questions!

Minutes later…

- Drake Grey (notebook and pen in hand, leaned forward): Another question, what is Qi? Natural Qi Core?

- Sir. A (takes a deep breath): One question at a time, child. Qi is an energy present in the air and living beings. It transports vital force. There's inner Qi (individual) and exterior Qi (environmental). The Qi core, or natural core, assimilates and stores exterior Qi. Humans and humanoids absorb outer Qi, which can be transformed into inner Qi. Inner it's used for manifestation (external use) or manipulation (internal use).

- The four (writing all down): Oh…

- Kim Yukimura (looking at Mr. A): This Master, Grand Master thing, I never understood...

- Sir. A (sighs) "I don't believe this…": Those are cultivation levels. The levels are, Beginner, Proficient, Professional Proficient, Master, Professional Master, Experienced Master, Grand Master, then Supreme Master, Supreme Grand Master and finally Legendary Supreme Grand Master. Until then, it was only known about the existence of these levels, we will talk about the others later. Meditation and training are the basic processes for evolution, the more the person evolves, the more training and meditation they need. The last 3 levels were nearly impossible to achieve, so it was unusual to find someone at that level, but it wasn't rare…

- Christian Chamberlain (his eyes narrowing as he leaned in): Now I want to understand this nanotechnology guy, Alfred. Nanorobots, nanomachines, what is that?

- Sir. A (drinks a glass of water, sighs): As you know, carbon dioxide production has been strictly prohibited since the great changes. The fall of asteroids, nuclear wars, the Alcana continent's seismic shifts, and relentless global warming. These events shaped our laws, and this nanotechnology, Alfred, can only be a relic from the past.

- Sir. A (takes a deep breath): Alfred, the pinnacle of nanotechnology, consisted of precisely 10,842,102,000 nanomachines. Pendragon Industries created these microscopic wonders. Implanted throughout Arthur's body, they connected directly to his brain. Undetectable due to their unique composition, they remained within Arthur until his death. Alfred communicated with Arthur through thoughts, enhancing his attributes, almost limitless capabilities.

                                         Author: Major changes are mass extinction events.

- Sir. A (leaned back, his expression thoughtful): It's an artificial superintelligence, in short, Alfred is a robot that is inside Arthur...

- The four (exchanged glances, writing): Oho, makes sense…

- Havanna Thundergaze (leaned forward): I have one, no, two! Pendragon, who exactly is he? And the amazons?!

- Sir. A (with veins on his face): I can't believe you asked me that question! Don't you know the ancestor of the Treadway house?! Emperor King Pendragon, was the founding emperor of the first empire, a revolutionary genius, respected by everyone, he was the strongest of his time thanks to the King's Force. He became emperor of the continent Eurus, he is the ancestor of Emperor King Arthur. And the amazons, I already explained, they are a species of humanoid women, rational and with super human attributes, they still exist, they are no humans thought... "I forgot I'm talking to kids..."

- Havanna Thundergaze (thinking): Okay, and what is law of Pendragon? And invoke the law? And Constitution Pendragon, and blah blah blah…

- Sir. A (annoyed) "These children…": The Pendragon law is a group of national and international statutes. National laws apply only within the Treadway's territory, while international ones span the world. Invoking Pendragon law happens with national rules. For instance, if a descendant of Pendragon on the throne refuses marriage, an elder can invoke the law, compelling the king to wed the twelve daughters of the twelve elders.

- Drake Grey (reading his notebook): Once you mentioned divergent, convergent, and what is the importance...

- Sir. A (sighs): Divergent are people who can manifest and manipulate Qi. Convergent are people who can only do one of the two things. Manifesting Qi is using your inner Qi, on the outside, to create Qi barriers, improving your weapons, creating Qi explosions, Qi bursts, etc.. And manipulating Qi, is using Qi to improve your senses and physical attributes, used mostly by martial artists…

- Drake Grey (reading): Still on the Qi wave, what is black Qi, aura? Balls of black Qi? And what happens when the core is sealed?

- Sir. A (rubbed his temples, the weight of countless questions pressing upon him): If you ask too many questions, I won't be able to remember them all... Black Qi is unknown, I won't tell it so as not to spoil the story, just know that it is much stronger than normal Qi.

- Sir. A (looking at them): Aura is an energy that a person emanates, it can be used to oppress people, block sound, create illusions, with the aura it is possible to know what level the person is at. The balls of black Qi are cores of black Qi that were extracted from Human beings, or humanoids, black core is the core that has been corrupted by black Qi. And the sealed core, to seal someone's core you need to be at least two levels above that person, and when the core is sealed, the person cannot use their Qi, otherwise they will die...

- Havanna Thundergaze (sipping her soda): Mr. A spoke of Qi explosions, improving your weapons, but how does it actually work? What about concentration and substitution techniques…?

- Sir. A (looks at the kids, sees that they are writing everything down): Are you doing your homework?

- Christian Chamberlain (laughing): But of course, Mr. A. The history, martial arts and Qigong teachers don't come close to your explanations...

- Sir. A (annoyed) "If I were paid to put up with these kids, I'd be the richest man in the galaxy…": Qi explosion happens when the inner Qi of two people meet. And about improving, just use your inner Qi to let the weapons, swords, katanas, spears, arrows, etc. more resistant. Total concentration is a technique that improves a person's senses to the maximum, it is very good when one wants to cultivate, and when fighting with someone stronger. The substitution technique is when the person uses Qi to increase their physical abilities…

- Drake Grey (reading, looks at Mr. A): Here is a question about the King's Force, what exactly is it?

- Kim, Havanna and Christian (onlookers): True, good question… (leaned in, awaiting enlightenment)

- Sir. A (smiles): I will explain according to the information we already have, later it will be re-explained. The King's Force is an unknown force, we know that it is an enormous power, much more powerful than normal Qi. Has a will of its own, chooses its heralds by hand, the last user of the King's Force was Pendragon, and he was what he was. Mount Everest cut in the middle already gives a basic idea of ​​what the King's Force is...

                                                    Author: Herald is the same as user.

- Drake Grey (raises an eyebrow): Heralds? What?

- Sir. A (gesturing): Because the power wasn't theirs, it was just borrowed, they used a strength that wasn't theirs, they didn't assimilate the power, unlike Arthur...

- Christian Chamberlain (reading, looks at Mr. A): Another one is about the Union, the princes of war...

- Sir. A (checks his watch): Terra! My pills... The war princes were chosen by each king to represent them before the Union army, each prince represented a kingdom.

- Terra (bearing sweets and medicine, smiled): Good afternoon boys, I brought you some sweets, and the pills are here, boss...

- Drake Grey (sighs, scratches his head): We're about to finish, hmm... What are King's Force candidates, imperial guardians and the primordial guardian?

- Sir. A (swallows a pill, looks at Terra): Thank you Terra, you are a daughter to me... (looks at Drake): At the time, one of the ways to know that someone was chosen by the Force was through the eyes, the eyes turned gold, sometimes shiny, then, the candidates were the chosen ones, those who would probably have the power, and if this choice was noticed by the eyes, the imperial guardians are the ones who guarded the descendants of Pendragon, waiting for the user to appear, because their true purpose is to protect the user of the King's Force, and the primordial guardian is the guardian of the Cave of The Kings, where the King's Force was located...

- Drake Grey (reading, sighs): Lastly, why didn't Arthur want to defend the amazons, and when did these events take place?

- Sir. A (smiles, looks at the sky): The phase from adolescence to youth is very sensitive, complex and confusing. Teenagers are 99% children, and 1% teenagers, so, naturally, Arthur was not responsible, he was selfish, insensitive, childish, but over time this came out. These events date back to 1200 years ago…

- Kim Thundergaze (wipes his mouth, swallows): My last, what is Alexia? And what about her father?

- Havanna Thundergaze (raises her hand): Me too! Was the academy completely destroyed? And why did they send Qin and Eleanor away?

- Sir. A (sighs) "Several questions…": I'll try not to forget the questions. Alexia was a hybrid, the rare fusion of a Phoenix and a amazon. Her father was an alpha Phoenix, among the strongest of their kind. But Alexia was a Stigma. For Phoenixes, stigmas are gods, rare, appearing once in centuries.

- Sir. A (takes a glass of water): Yes, it was completely destroyed in the attack, all that was left was the female or male dormitory, I don't remember exactly, and the library, but then the academy was rebuilt here in the Floating City, a curious fact, the name of the empire is Protoss, in honor of the amazons. They were sent away because what they did dishonored their families, it was a shame for the family, they tarnished their family's name with it...

- Drake Grey (remembers): Ahh yes, I want to ask a question that everyone wants the answer!…
