The man smiles, and with a flip of his hand, the rocks on the ground start to fly and circle around the mysterious man. Each rock is around the size of a small cottage.

The group members had already activated their abilities to escape.

"Quickly, run in different directions." Glacia screams to warn the others as she tries to run too.

The rocks orbiting around the mysterious man change shape and take the form of spears. Massive, menacing rockspears, six meters long...

"Just go and die, you thieves!"

The man shouts, and the rock spears shoot toward the members with great speed.mutilating them with great force. decimating their bodies and destroying their organs.

The four members did not even have a chance to defend themselves.

The speed and power behind rock spears were too powerful and fast.

The man looked at the corpses and spat on the ground as he left.

"Crushed and mutilated to death, it fits thieves and bugs like these."

Seconds later, a young man shows himself.

"I was just going home to start my work."

"This is not something I expected to see."

"They were real soul users!"

"That man controlled the earth to create spears and killed them by shooting spears at them!"

The young man starts to take more and more breaths because of all the things he has seen.

"Calm down, Jack."

"It does not matter what happened."

"I am not involved, and the man did not seem to notice me at all."

Jack whispers to himself. He gulps and then starts to walk toward the bodies of four people.

"Because of blood loss, their complexion starts to turn white." not to mention their twisted and mangled bodies. "The force behind rock spears must be huge."

Jack tries to comment on the events to calm himself down. This may be it. "This may be my chance."

"I only know two ways to become a soul user."

"The first is to naturally awaken, and the second is to gather knowledge, real and original knowledge, about soul energy to start the path."

"I am already twenty-one years old, and it seems like I am not going to awaken naturally at all."

Jack starts to search for corpses. As he searches, he keeps looking around at himself. "I don't want to be seen looting up the corpses of these people."

"If there are witnesses who saw him looting corpses... Jack thought and shook his head. "I don't want to imagine getting caught at all."

"I need to be quick."

Ten minutes later, Jack sits down on the ground just outside of town, drenched in sweat.

He looks around and quickly passes the crowd, trying not to draw any attention to himself.

Young people who work in town sweat heavily all the time because of hard work.

Nobody cared about Jack's sweaty clothes or the drops of sweat that fell from his face to the ground.

Jack lived alone in an inn named "Krinka."

Jack only needed to pay two copper coins per day to live in the town.

Doing simple tasks around the town would give him around ten to fifteen copper coins per day.

which is enough for him to live by.

-

Jack enters his room and closes the door.

He starts to smile as he looks at the three books in his hands. "I got it! "I'm going to be a soul user from now on!"

He chose three books from the bodies of four people.

The first book was "Introduction to Soul Energy," the second was "Soul Energy Categories and Levels," and the last book was the most valuable.

Jack heard about the book.

"Soul Ability—Awaken"

As Jack placed the other two books on his table, he sat on his chair and opened the book titled "Soul Ability: Awaken."

Soul Ability: Awaken is the book that people who have enough resources buy for their offspring.
