In the end the red ball of light was a Demon god soul, the demon God was named Leyak and trying to control the body of Lucius he failed to do so.

Seeing that he failed and was imprisoned in the mind of Lucius he didn’t have a choice but to cooperate with him, Leyak discovered that the body of Lucius was special so there was still some hope that is what he thought.

Like demons usually do he made a contract with Lucius in exchange of granting his wish, he then opened the fifty five meridians of Lucius to enable him to cultivate.

“Say Leyak what do we do now that you opened my meridians?”

“Hmm? Oh for now the ones that wanted to kill you think that you are dead so it’s a good start “

Leyak was released before the two assassins caught up to Lucius in the forest so he saw all that happened and saved lucius by casting an illusion spell to trick them .

“I can’t return to the village but I have the map of the city of Noria with me that uncle gave me “

“humph what can a brat without power like you do in a city of the mortal realm for now you need to take shelter in this forest “

“But there is neither food nor water how can I live here?”

“Food huh? Water is no problem I sensed a flow of water in the forest so there is probably a small river around here , and for food with my spiritual power I can sustain your vitality but there is also some fruit trees and I think we will remain here for around three months “

“Three months!!!? That’s…”

“what do you have a problem , you can be glad that you have that kind of body do you think three months is a long period of time to train for other persons it will probably take half a year or even a year “

“What? That long “

Lucius remembered that in the carriage there was some food for the ride to the city so he took what was there and returned to the forest.

“Lucius an ideal place would be a cave, there is probably one “

“Are you sure? “

“Yes it is probably where the small river is “

Lucius with the advices of Leyak reached the small river but it was not only a river but there was also a waterfall, there is no living thing in this forest except vegetation so even fish was not found, surprisingly there was really a cave, it was behind the waterfall, so a person need to cross the water to reach the cave.

“It’s a suitable place for training and meditating Lucius make this place your training ground you need to reach the first layer of the warrior cultivation “

“Understood but it is waiting on my mind what do I call you “

“You can call me master hahahahah“

“No way! “

“why?”

“Because you didn’t teach me anything “

“You ungrateful brat!”

“Okay Okay …I will call you master Ley “

Lucius then entered the cave, it was deep and huge, we can wonder how this cave was created, and it was probably a normal cave

“Brat this cave probably has treasures but also some dangerous traps you don’t have the ability to pass through”

“woaahh treasures I onlu read about it in books “

“Right kid what is the source of your hatred?”

Lucius hearing the question was hesitating, he didn’t want to remember what happened to his parents.

“Humph, I don’t care if you don’t tell me “

“No, I ….i will tell you “

“I ‘m only interested because it can help you cultivate “

“My father and mother died because of a person “

“So it’s related to your family huh”

“Yes but that person is too strong he is the lord of my former clan “

“Kid don’t think too deeply one day you will have the chance to kill him easily but for now you need to concentrate on your training “

“Okay “

Lucius explored the cave and indeed he found some remains of bones, he was starving so he ate some food and drank some water.

“Your physical capability is too low so you need to train your body before cultivating, for one month

You will train sixteen hours a day and sleep the rest of the time , training will be divided in two kinds , body strengthening eight hours and meditating eight hours “

“Isn’t it too harsh?”

“Brat if you don’t want to be stronger and take your revenge then give up and remain weak all your life “

“Yes master Ley! I will do it even if I die “

“Good and don’t complain anymore or I will not help you”

“Yes master Ley!”

(It is actually good to have someone call you master hahaha) thought Leyak.

Lucius then immersed himself in training, body strengthening consisted of swimming, running, lifting weights, and martial arts 2 hours each type of training.

Meditating was to sit cross-legged below the waterfall and concentrate on the flow of water to forget everything and attain total concentration state.

Each day passed like this until one month was attained.

One month later, a young boy was sitting cross-legged inside a cave , his eyes close the air around him was calm and serene .

“Hey it’s time to begin cultivating “

The young boy was Lucius after one month signs of growth could be seen on his body, his muscles began transform and even his state of mind matured a bit, his expression now was calmer and relaxed.

“Master how do I cultivate and absorb the energy I didn’t have access to cultivation books and scrolls when I was in the village “

“Before that I need to explain to you with some details “

“Yes master “

“Okay first cultivation will be different based on the way one choose to follow, the warrior way or the mage way, for this you are an exception brat because you have that special mind of yours, mages absorbs energy and store it inside their soul space and warriors in every cell of their body, that is internal and external cultivation, the energy reside in the particles scattered in the air and in the earth, to absorb there is only a way to meditate and concentrate on attracting the energy to our bodies , you will need to make a particular hand seal but nothing complicated you have already finished the difficult part , the total concentration , the next step is when the energy is inside your body , with our spirit we will guide it , for warriors they will distribute it to the cells and mages to their soul space that is in their dantian is the explication clear ? “

“Yes master I have understood the principle in fact it’s very easy hahaha”

“Brat I don’t think it’s easy you will have to try for at least three days “

“Master let me try for now “

“Fine, when you concentrate, try to feel the energy only in a radius of 5 meters “

“Alright”

Lucius then began to meditate he closed his eyes and started to visualize and feel the energy , for the first try he didn’t feel anything , but he repeated the process for three hours and suddenly a tiny particle appeared in the mind of Lucius

“How can this kid… how the fuck? When I was a mortal it took me five fucking days but this brat only three hours to detect the first particle”

Lucius felt the tiny bit of energy inside the particle and absorbed it in a flash, he then began to fell more and more particle in the air and in the ground below him, he slowly started to canalize the energy absorbed , with his spiritual force he visualized his cells and guided the energy toward them ,

The cells began to devour the energy like starving beasts, slowly and slowly until he didn’t have the ability to absorb anymore

“Master what is happening I was absorbing but suddenly it stopped?”

“Do you think your cells are a giantsµ? Like every glass if you fill it with too much water it will flow out your cells have reached the absorbing limit”

“Oh so it’s like that “

Lucius diligently trained another month, now there is only one month left, time truly flow like water.

In the village of the Odein clan, Garlan was sitting like always around his desk and was writing some documents related to the clan, suddenly someone knocked on the door.

“You can enter “

The door was pushed open and a child with brown short hair and blue eyes appeared

“Father!!”

“ohh! My son Dillon what are you doing here “

The child was the eleven years old son of Garlan, for his age he was tall and he was already at the first level of cultivation, the village was proud of him.

“Father in another five months, there is the entrance exam of the academy of Noria “

“Ah yes that’s right it’s already this time huh, but don’t worry my son is genius so you will be surely admitted “

The academy of Noria that the son of Garlan mentioned is a special school for young mages and warriors it’s an elite academy with an entrance exam, Garlan wished for his son to enroll.

In the silent woods it the now familiar cavern, in the three months time , 3 days were left , Lucius was like always sitting meditating , suddenly his body began to glow and a surge of energy hovered around his body then sweat appeared on the forehead of Lucius , his muscles contacted and some steam was emanating from his body , this is the reaction when reaching the first layer of cultivation , the steam vanished and the body was not glowing anymore , Lucius opened his eyes , on his face delight and happiness were seen .

“Finally I ‘m a warrior hahahahaha finally uncle you’re little Lucius became a warrior how I wish that you congratulate me …” (Lucius)

“Not bad the three months time didn’t elapse yet “(Leyak)

“Yeah master!!”

“Hmm now you can try to search for the treasure in the cave do you want to?”

“Of course master I have to test my power “

Lucius then stood up and began to walk deeper in the cave, after some time he saw an entrance.

“Must be the way to the treasure “

Lucius walked in, a corridor appeared in front of him, and luckily it was not too dark some holes illuminated the cave.

“Pay attention there is some traps “

Leyak warned him in advance.

“Yes master Ley “

When Lucius began to walk in the corridor, midway something made a sound, and from the walls blades suddenly were thrust toward him, Lucius trained his agility and was harshly trained by Leyak in lifting weights so his body was sturdier, Lucius then twisted his body and dodged the first two blades, after that he jumped and evaded a blade that came from below him, he repeated the movements and safely reached the other side , another entrance but this time it was a large space with in the back countless treasures ,

“wahhh do you see that master? “

“Humph treasures don’t affect me anymore except weapons or godly scrolls brat “

The treasures were mostly gold and weapons but of course normal weapons not like what Leyak mentioned.

Suddenly upon crossing the entrance four shadows appeared, Lucius was startled, the shadows slowly took shape, they were strange beasts, their body was made of rocks and their eyes were holes that emitted red lights

“Kid those things are beast golems they are used to guard the treasures but they are low leveled creatures nothing to fear but a good combat training for you, you see those weapons in the back you can help yourself “

“Beast golems huh “

Lucius state mind was also trained so he was not afraid of those beasts, the Lucius of the past would be scared, he then dashed to the other side of the room the golems seeing his sudden movements were startled but quickly regained their senses an shot toward Lucius , Lucius taking advantage of the momentum grabbed a short sword the first golem that was near him shot its paw at him , he then blocked with his sword .

Sfx (peng!)

The golems were made from rocks so they were tough, he continued to block but the golems pressured him

“Hey brat search for a weakness these beasts actually have a clear weakness “

Lucius hearing the words of Leyak decided to analyze the golem beasts suddenly he realized something the golem is fully made of rock except the eyes.

Lucius back hit the wall, the beast jumped and tried to bite him at that moment he raised his short sword and aimed at the left eye of the golem, success, at point blank he didn’t miss and the sword pierced trough the golem howled in pain then collapsed on the floor not moving.
