Mentally cursing the Blue haired demon for the fiftieth time as another static bolt penetrated his perception and sent him convulsing like he’d just been tazed , although he couldn’t be hurt physically it still hurt like hell.
Essa “there is a reason im using electric attacks silly.. think about it and formulate a plan. When you can dodge ten of these it will be time for the second half of this training”
Since the event in the forest Lesche has been meditating expanding his perception of the world around him using the latent MANA in the air, once called a killing field, because once mastered you can see everything inside the field its like a spectator watching a fight from every angle, every twitch, every muscle movement is seen. All the while Essa in her jovial self has been torturing aiding Lesche in his pursuit of utilizing this skill that will be a cornerstone for his defense.
What am I missing, Master just gave me a hint. What about electric attacks besides the joy she is getting out of it should I be concentrating on, I mean yes they are a two fold damage type with the bonus of sometimes rendering a target immobile. But what about it am I missing? As Lesche was contemplating this, another bolt entered into his range but before he could move Lesche was once again convulsing on the ground.

Lesche “M-Ma-Master I can feel it enter my range then I lose it, I have tried to fill my perception with MANA but I am unable to as my capacity falls short”
WHACK!!
Using her over sized novelty paper fan sent Lesche into the ground face first.
Essa “If I am to show you everything in this world what are you going to experience for yourself, you are your fathers son use that brain of yours and think your way out of this situation. You cant rely on people to get you out of a bind, you can use their talents but ultimately you are responsible for you, so use the most valuable weapon at your disposal and think”
Lesche pushed himself to his feet and rubbed the back of his head to ease the ringing how does she hit so hard? Before he could answer the redundant question he was again assaulted with yet another static bolt.

Entering Goddessa’s inner sanctum Codrea has come once again to question the AI to find the location of his son, who was supposed to be in the frozen village yet somehow has been misplaced, but to make things more concerning is the signal and tracking is being jammed, due to the nature of this in his mind it could only be one of the 120 people, one of the ten gods or one of their entourage of 10 followers each, even one if his 10 generals could be the culprit with as all other computer systems have been destroyed to make a new world. To make matters worse the AI has now gained sentience.
Codrea “goddessa”
Goddessa “Hello Codrea, what can I help you with today?, and before you ask I still can’t locate Lesche, although I can converse with him. It is rathe perplexing as I can feel the whole world as my being, I know he is within me yet cannot locate him”
This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.
Codrea “let me know if you find him, also I would like to add a new protocol call it the ‘god protocol’ there must always be someone seated in one of the 11 god chairs, if one is somehow killed whomever killed them would assume their seat if it was another god their first follower will take the place of the murderers seat as they assume the new title. If it does happen and one of the 11 is killed they will each be locked in a pocket dimension only able to influence the world through their followers, or champions. They will still be able to dole out blessings but only within their church or within the eyesight of their patrons. The only exception to this rule will be Fradd and the demon lord as they each have their roles to fill and neither can do so from a pocket dimension”
Goddessa “It will be done, I will need a consensus on this from the council”
Codrea “authorisation code 115849632 blue 43 epsilon”
Goddessa “supreme override accepted in place of consensus”
Codrea stumbled out of the room wondering if he had done the right thing, if their power falls into the wrong hands the world would be back where it was, this was just another way to enforce checks and balances, as well as that if anything happened to him his son would at least have a fighting chance. Was he acting on fear, doubt or mistrust didn’t matter it was done and like always he would shoulder the burden to try make the world a better place for his loved ones.

As Lesche was convulsing after yet another static bolt he had another realisation why was I convulsing?, once the charge left my body shouldn’t my body be ridged then ok?, the static bolt is not like the lightning bolt which hits damages burns and sometimes paralyse, instead hits does damage and then slowly releases more damage over time in pulses….. pulses…. PULSES!!! That’s it you genius
Jumping up he smiles at Essa whose smile changed from a cheesy grin to a sly smirk… challenge accepted
This time as Lesche extended his perception he pulsed his MANA inside it at intervals the way a submarine would use sonar to navigate, and this time when Essa fired her static bolt it entered his field and he could see it, and its trajectory then.
ZAAPPP!!

Lesche learnt an important lesson keep your eye on the prize, during his experiment success he forgot to dodge leaving him convulsing on the ground with a smile on his face.
Seeing his growth Essa was impressed, although she had practically spelt it out to him, he had taken the next step “Better luck next time” she said silkily while blowing him a kiss, he is growing nicely under my torture tutelage, cant wait till step two combat training *GIGGLE*, but for now he needs to get a better grasp on this.
Lesche got a slight chill run up his spine followed by another familiar ominous feeling.
