Volume 6 Chapter 56: Baby Steps
"Hmpf!" Keith groaned. Anyone who saw him would be surprised by how he looked. That was because sweat was pouring down from his forehead. He was in the training ground practicing gravity again. In front of him were two objects.
Come on! I need to make them dent! Keith wanted to change the gravity of both objects. That was the next objective he had.
If the gravity increases, the opponent will be restricted. As he continued to do it for a few minutes, he had to stop. He fell on his butt as he gasped.
"Ahh, this is so difficult." The highest Keith could change the gravity was .5. But that was only for a few minutes.
"Changing them is the worst ." The objects were the size of a regular human. There were many difficulties with using this magic. Although, the most challenging hurdle to overcome was,
Mana.
Mana was the problem. One drawback to gravity was that it required a lot of mana. Increasing the times of gravity required a significant amount. Two times to three times, the change in gravity needed different amounts. Not only that but depending on the size, it also took up mana.
And how long?
"This is not going to be a cakewalk." Every time he used magic, it would be a cakewalk. But this was just not that. And that made him…excited.

Yes, excited.
It was a challenge Keith had to overcome. He waved his hand around as he started again. He kept doing it for quite some time. But as he did, he seemed to forget about something.
"Haha!" Sprawling on the ground, Keith stared at the sky. I could only do one. The highest he could change was twice the gravity. But that was it.
"Baby steps." Keith sighed. There was no way he could use it without going through the pain. The objective he had was to use it as a group. He needed to use it on multiple people. As he thought,
"What's the time?" Training so hard made him forget about the time.
"Ahh! It's that late?!" It was already past dinner time! Keith didn't hesitate as he quickly dashed to the mansion. How is everyone going to react? He was a little worried.
"Keith! Why'd you return so late?!" "Yeah! We're hungry!" And what Keith thought came true. Herrick and Melor were roaring. The others were surprised he came home so late as well.
"Sorry about that. I was practicing and lost track of time." Keith scratched his head.
"You-Mugahh!" Before Herrick had the chance to complain, Alfia's fist came down.
"Stop pestering Keith! He has other things to do!" Alfia shook her head. It was apparent what he was trying to do.
"My bad, guys." "Just remember."
"Mmhmm. I also take it that Nephele is the same?" He understood that Melor and Herrick would be like this. However, he didn't see Nephele around. He thought for sure she would do the same thing.
"You don't have to worry about her. Diana did some things." Alfia looked away.
"Ahh, I see." So she got launched away.
"And I'm more surprised Cadmus hasn't joined them."
"Hmpf! Do you think I would do something like that?!" Cadmus scoffed, "I, the great dragon, had suffered many times before and gotten used to it!"
"..." I see. Keith nodded, "I'll prepare something quick for you guys to eat." Should I prepare some things in the back in case something like this happens again?
