As Jace and Lena looked at each other, Jack, standing next to them, opened his eyes. His eyes glowed green as he closed them again. He had a satisfied smile on his face.
As Jace and Lena looked at him dumbfounded, Jack had reached the middle level of yellow lightning. Only one thing was going through both of their minds at the time
"How quickly."
A Few Minutes Ago
Jack was still feeling the pain in his arm as he moved into a meditative sitting posture at Lena's word. The wound should have hurt more, but the pain was greatly dulled by the incredible release of adrenaline in his body.
Jack was disconnected from the outside world as soon as he entered a meditation that would normally take several hours.
"This is definitely not normal," he said, but he still had to go on. He didn't want to lag behind the others and be a burden to them.
He started to watch the surroundings as he moved forward a little. It seemed to be flying over the empty space. The moment he entered his mind, he could not feel the comfort he felt anywhere. He was seeing memories, thoughts, dreams. After travelling for a while more, he managed to find what he needed to find.
He did not know what to say when he saw the feeling of fear. His eyes began to redden and his heart was filled with a feeling of longing. How could the person in front of him be his fear? How could she be afraid of him when she cried every night thinking about him? How could he be afraid of his mum?
"I'm not real, Jack. I'm just a remnant left by the real one." said his mother. Even though Jack didn't understand anything, a voice inside him said that he should approach her. Still, he didn't. A chilling sensation was covering him. Indeed, it was not his mother.
One after another questions flooded his mind. Was this person who really looked like her mother her fear? Why did she look like her mother? Suddenly the most important question came to his mind. As soon as he stood in place, his mind was at the point of explosion. Why had this power chosen him?
"Because you are worthy of it, Jack. "said his mother. Jack was surprised by what his mother said. He did not expect his fear to speak. And what his fear said made him angry.
"Worthy of what? Being a coward?! "Jack shouted. Jack's mum shook her head as she looked at him.
"No Jack, on the contrary, people have misunderstood this power. We agile ones are not called Asassin, Jack. We are repellers. We do not fear, Jack. We frighten the feared. It is the freedom from our fears that gives us strength."
"Now I ask you, what are you afraid of?" said his mother. Jack put his head down. He was thinking. He was scared. He was scared out of his mind, but he hadn't realised it all along. Now he realised the answer.
"I'm scared. I'm afraid of losing you again, mum. "As he approached his mother with slow steps, the fear inside him was dismantled in small pieces.
As her mother's hand touched her face, her eyes shone with green light with the words she said.
"I'm not going anywhere anymore."
He had reached the middle degree of yellow lightning. Still, according to what they said, it wasn't enough. Jack was still behind his peers. And his questions were not over yet.
"Why did you leave? If you could be here, you were just like the rest of us, and apparently you were strong too."
His mother shook her head, but the smile remained on her face.
"I was protecting him, I couldn't let anything happen to him, and they were after me. Your potential was too high. I thought you'd be safe if you stayed with him. I wasn't wrong."
"I lost you. I was left without you. You weren't there when everyone else's mum was. You left me alone. helpless. "
"But I won't let you give me hope anymore, Mum. I will walk my own path. The path I want to walk. And I will always put the lives of my friends before my own."
"Right now, I need strength. I think this residue of yours is a combination of fear and excitement. If I absorb you, if I absorb your energy, my next emotion will probably be excitement. But I don't mind. "
Jack went straight for his mum, grabbed her by the arms and broke her neck. It was brutal. She was his mum. His one and only mum, but she'd been dead a long time. She wasn't real. Jack's heart didn't bleed. It didn't break. It didn't break. He just sighed.
The empty feeling of excitement and fear began to enter Jack's body directly.

With the emotions rapidly entering Jack's body, he instantly reached the peak of the middle degree of yellow lightning.
His eyes once again flashed green as he was engulfed in intense emotion. Meanwhile, Lena began to heal. As the two of them entered his body together, his pain multiplied from 1 to 10 times. Different energies were torturing him
"Our..... Our strength.... It's not just fear." The energy that healed his body was going directly into Jack's body without coming out.
"The intense sense of excitement and fear around him was about to disappear as the pain in his arm diminished.
"We..... At the same time.... We control pain." Jack was at the peak of the peak of the yellow lightning as the intense sense of fear entering his body entered his body at a sudden speed. He had to calm down before coming out of meditation. After he calmed down, he spoke to himself.
"If it wasn't for the feeling of excitement, I would have already entered the blue lightning. Anyway, this will do. I wonder what the others did."
***
The three of them meditated side by side in the same place. It took Kevin thirty minutes to disconnect from the outside as he meditated. He had heard that normally it should take much longer, but he didn't care much about that.
When he disconnected from the outside world, he opened his eyes in a dark place. Nothing could be felt. Nothing could be seen. It was like a land in the shadows.
When he started walking, the shadows began to disperse slowly.
Three hours had passed in his mind. In reality, he had no idea how much time had passed.
Three days had passed in his mind and he was still walking.
Another long time passed. Suddenly the question he should have asked in the first place came to Kevin's mind. He finally found his consciousness in the energy of his body. In the first meditation he came close to self-discovery.
"Why am I walking?"
It was like this from the very beginning. He didn't know what I was doing. Suddenly the questions that came to his mind reminded him of his old memories.
"I'm moving forward with them, but I'm just a burden." It wasn't something he could do just by saying do it. He had wanted to fall in love for years, but he had never thought about that question.
"What is love?" suddenly his eyes shone with a yellow light and words involuntarily spilled out of his mouth.
"The middle degree of yellow lightning"
Kevin looked down at his hands and started talking to himself.
"I thought we were supposed to absorb energy. Then realisation is what keeps us moving forward. So that's how ignorant I was."
"When I was living my life, I didn't think about what was going on outside. I just wanted to love. What an adolescent thought."
"I finally understand." Kevin put his hand to his heart, and what he had done would have driven the great masters mad. Perhaps it was the simplest, yet most invisible mistake on the path of development.
"The feeling of love is not necessarily to love someone of the opposite sex. It is to love. I get stronger because I want to protect the ones I love. It's not necessarily a girl who makes me strong. My friends will be my source. Then my strength will last as long as our friendship. "He did what I wanted him to do as he suddenly rose from the beginning of the middle to the top of the peak.
Ignorance had made him rise faster than others in his education. The emotions that moved his heart made him strong. His ignorance showed him that he had a long way to go.
He tied the healing energy in his heart into a cycle. A cycle that would never end as long as the people se loved existed. He would not weaken like Lena. He wouldn't depend on one. He would be connected to everyone.
As his eyes flashed again, he reached the peak of the yellow lightning.
All night he had been thinking while keeping the intense feeling in his body in infinite order. An evil smile formed on his face. He thought of his friends. He felt sure of himself.
"I hope you don't get left behind."
Kai Lane
Kai, like the others, went into meditation and was cut off from the outside world.
'I think this is normal for me.'
While he was thinking like this, his surroundings lit up and 6 people appeared around a table. All of them had intervals that could not be described with the word horror.
Kai jumped back as he was frightened by the aura emanating from them.
"W-who are you? What are you doing in my mind?" he stammered. One of the men laughed while the others held back. This boy in front of them had forgotten his whole self because of their aura and turned into a coward. What a weak will. As expected from a child.
"Brat, we are the conscious emotions in you. We will train you. Don't worry, you are right to be afraid. Because we're determined to get through you." Kai swallowed, wondering where he had fallen. Who were these guys?
"So, which one of us will start training first?"
"I think you should start, Ezra. Besides, they don't have a rager in their group. It will be better if you teach him," Auron said. Everyone looked at the angry looking man and sighed again. All they hoped was that he would have mercy on Kai'a.
"Fine, I'll do it. But first we need to get away from you." With a wave of the hand of the one they called Ezra, they were both in another place in an instant.
"Firstly, you will call me Master Ezra. Secondly, I'm going to tell you some things, listen carefully. Don't miss my words. You will need it in the future. "
"Here's where you actually have an advantage. Everyone has the six emotions you have now after a long labour. But you are exempt from this. Although your power is not as much as theirs, you will live longer than them. Much longer. And at the same time, as far as power is concerned, it will be very difficult for you to advance in one emotion. Each stage will be like a thunderbolt. There will be no small layers in your development. Like the beginning of the beginning. You will be directly at the peak and the beginning of the colours."
"The other thing you need to learn now is your king mode. You've already activated it once. It's when you use all your emotions at the same time. It's the power of the body path. It causes a quantum leap in your physical abilities. It causes various changes in your body, but then you become weak. This is only because of your poor understanding of the body path and the weakness of your body. We were the ones who put you in this state before. We just wanted you to survive."
Kai was excited when he learnt of the power of king mode. But he was saddened that he couldn't use it. Still, his excitement was greater. One day, when he could use it, he would be much stronger than his opponents.
"When do we start then? "he asked. But he should not have asked Ezra such a question. Because an evil smile on that angry face could be really incredibly scary.
"Now!"
