Yato looked a little plum but in good health. He wore glasses like everyone in the group except for Andy. Jimmy was almost as tall as Andy and his hair style resembled that of Hurry Potter.
"Wait a sec, before we start. Didn't you say that you could heal with your I energy? If so why don't you restore your eyesight?"-Jimmy
"I did. On the way here I restored my eyesight to make it just minus 0.25 and got new glasses. I got used to how I look with those glasses since I've been wearing glasses ever since year 3, and ,unlike you, I don't look like a nerd with them on." - Kei
"cmon man, you know I'm not a nerd you're the one who looks like a nerd, not only do you wear glasses you're also short."replied Jimmy. "I'm not!!! My height is average you're just abnormal."-Kei
"Also I plan to become barbaric, so this gives me scholarly looks that will help." Kei took a breath "let's start" . After telling them about the plan, Kei sat cross legged on the carpet with the other 3 sitting in front of him with their backs to him.
"breathe in for 10 seconds then hold your breath for 35 seconds....." Kei continued giving them instructions while generating I energy to them. Having the constant stream of energy their need for air was almost nonexistent. After 35 minutes all of them suddenly got covered in black slime.
" So that's why you told us to get extra clothes. I'll be the first to shower" yato ran for the bathroom.
"hey that's my house I should shower first" shouted Andy while going after him. Kei went to the kitchen and got a glass of water. "sorry man... But I already broke all the cups in my house. They have only a 10% chance to break right now though". His energy turned blue the moment the sparks entered the cup and they became invisible afterwards.
A moment later he flipped the cup upside down but the water didn't fall. It's surface stayed still. Jimmy saw him and thought it looked nice and so he grabbed a glass of water. "No wait if you-" *crash* the cup broke.
In reality while holding the water looked simple it was an excellent training of control as first one needed to get his energy past the glass without breaking it. This needed extreme control to break extremely small channels while reinforcing the areas around it so that the glass won't crumble.

Then, the energy needed to form a layer at the top that forced all the water molecules on the surface to bind with each other and pushing that layer towards the rest of the liquid. This way when he flipped the cup the water still wouldn't fall down.
"Don't tell Andy" Jimmy said and proceeded to gather the broken shards, hide them in a plastic bag and then throw it into the basket. "Forget about the cup. You did a good job. It took you less than a second to find out that the normal I energy can't pass so you switched to destructive"-Kei
"wait, there are types? And I have to manually control them? I thought the turned to healing inside the body and destructive out of it" - Jimmy
"Hmm, that's weird I could freely control the energy type switch even out of my body. You can't do that?" - Kei
"nope" -Jimmy. "neither can I" - Andy. It appears Yato managed to go in first. Putting his hands behind his head he said in his signature laid back style "welp I guess you guys need some control training after all"
"I was thinking you only needed to increase the amount and get some combat experience. Having the amount of control I'm aiming for is not necessarily, but since you guys suck at energy control you need to train to at least reach the basic level. Can't have you accidentally healing yourself with destructive I energy. "
Following that Andy and Jimmy started training on paper by breaking it with their energy and trying to restore a small cut, Kei gave to them, on their thumbs, using a kitchen knife.
By the time the 3 were done showering Kei had already almost mastered his new training of dipping his finger into the water cup and trying to lift the water out without a single drop of water falling. When the water was out of the cup it wobbled slightly like jelly then broke and drenched him. "well I'll return to training later"
"It's getting late and I have a few other stuff to do before I go home, so I'll have to leave soon for now I'll teach you something that you absolutely can't use except if I tell you to do so or if your life is in danger."
"It's actually a simple action just put your hand on your chest and gather all your I energy there and think of words like blaze, spark and ignite. This should activate your flame energy. It will increase your power exponentially but-"
"you will lose it quickly" interrupted Jimmy
"no you won't lose it but you will be greatly limiting your future prospects." continued Kei" I won't elaborate much further as there is something I have to talk about right now." He proceeded to tell them about the robber incident.
"And you didn't feel anything when killing the guy?" - Jimmy. "Nope. In fact killing someone who deserved it was more convenient than having to go out of bed"-Kei
"Just how lazy are you?"-Yato
"I'm not. I used to be hyper active but there was nothing else to do. I reached the phase where waiting was the only option. So instead of becoming normal I decided to go to another extreme. Being normal is a nightmare. It's essentially calling urself a background character of this world. "- Kei
" I didn't think it would go that way since it's your first kill and all. Plus, it's not a game, he was a real living person with no respawns. " -Jimmy
"Reality IS a game, just a crappy one. Or at least it used to be. But I got this power now so things are gonna get entertaining. I'll restructure this world since it's become so boring and devoid of any adventure". With a beaming smile Kei continued "Are you gonna wreck the world with me?"
" Wait you just said 2 opposite things. Will you wreck the world and destroy it? Or will you restructure it?" - Jimmy
"Both are the same thing I'm gonna rebuild it, so I need to demolish the old society. As for building a new one.... I'll count on you guys. Since I'm only good when it comes to creative destruction. I'm not into building."-Kei
"Fuck so the real work is left to us as usual"
After finishing joking around. Kei was leaving but after taking a few steps from the door, "I still can't get it out of my head. Why is it so easy for you to control I energy when we are struggling?"At Jimmy's remark Kei smirked and without turning back said "It's cause I'm a genius. "
