Chapter 4 - Keep on Training!
When kiddo woke up, he felt refreshed and start checking his body if something was wrong.
"Hmm, what the hell did really happen last night?"
suddenly the door opened and Cane goes in.
"Hey kid, you're late for the day. You haven't started doing your training and you already have the guts to skip doing the tasks that I gave you??"
Kiddo's eye brows twitched
"You're clearly turning me into your slave!! why don't you teach me a fighting move or defensive something that really matters!!!"
Cane grinned as he emits a pressure, kiddo falls down with his butt, sweating like a pig..
"you don't have the rights to question me! you want me to teach you! If you don't like my way then you're free to go!"
Kiddo, realized that he doesn't have enough power to get out of the forest nor even knows how to get out from the heart since powerful beasts tends to gather near the heart because of the energy.
Kiddo stood up immediately then bowed to Cane, his teacher
"I'm sorry master, my emotions got the best of me"
Cane couldn't help but feel happy for this kid
"Kiddo, being hot headed is good but it doesn't mean it's also right. At least you learned something today, don't rush things and learn to be humble, for sometimes in life, being humble brings opportunities."
Kiddo, thanked his master inside his heart, even though he wants revenge, it could always wait... First he has to learn how to properly meditate and absorb the energy. Then it came to his mind what happened last night.
"Master, I have a question"
Before Cane goes out of the room, he looked at the kid.
"Good now you also learned how to politely ask someone, go on child what's your question?"
"Master, last night I tried to meditate to exactly know the location of the energy core inside of my body. Then after I located it, I tried to move bit by bit into my fists but it took a lot of energy, so to regain the lost energy I also tried to absorbed natural energy then that's where I fainted"
This kid.. in just one night?? he already gained insights about the way of natural energy and his own energy? hahaha truly wonderful!! This will keep me from boredom!!
"Ehem, kiddo, you made a grave mistake last night, you almost died didn't you know??"
Kiddo, looked astonished, his mouth widely opened, eyes almost bulging out, as his master told him.
"Huh? Is that true master? instead why do I feel refreshed and I feel my body is a little bit stronger?"
"HAHAHAHA, of course it's all because of me kid!! If I didn't checked on you, you'll probably died because of internal energy rupture.. You see energy is good for the body because it makes one stronger by constantly refining each strands of cells or hmmm, if you're on a grand master level probably each cell in your body, but it's good only if you know the limits or boundary of how much natural energy you could absorb from the nature."
as Cane explained to kiddo, he smiled looking in his ignorant disciple...
Stolen story; please report.
"So, Master how can I know my limits? so I could prevent my internal veins from rupturing because of excess absorption?"
"First of all kid, rupturing rarely occurs because an expert's absorption rate is not fast, it takes really a huge amount of concentration, effort and time in meditating before one's get a feel of the natural energy, but since we're at a special place where such energy is abundant, we get a huge boost in feeling the energy thus making it faster for you to absorb it. Second, it is the reason why the heart of the forest is surrounded by strong beasts but of course I'm the strongest here so no one dared to enter my territory HAHAHA.. Third, to know one's limits in absorption, you have to slowly fill up your internal veins with energy until you feel pain as if your veins are bursting out but when you feel it immediately stop"
"But.. Master"
"Ohh?? what is it child?? go on say it"
"Why did you teach me a different method??"
"HAHAHA of course!! My method is different from the other experts!! that's why I'm strong.. you see, other experts train their inner body, it is where one's one energy circulates. In my teaching instead of focusing like those experts in inner body training which takes a lot of time to reach the threshold where they could put a fight with me, I taught you how to cultivate your outer body by using natural energy!! because simply it is a lot faster!"
"Not only that!! In inner body training after you exhaust all the energy that comes from your body you don't have a choice but to meditate for fast recovery, but in my teaching I'm gonna teach you how to absorb natural energy all the time!! resulting in making you strong!! Now tell me how both teaching is different??"
"Uhmm, in inner body training it focuses in one's energy while us focuses on using natural energy?? and also in inner body training, one has to make his energy circulate faster to recover fast while we only need to absorb from the nature"
"HAHAHA good!! but it's not we kid!! it's only me! do you know who I am??!"
Now that I think about it, I don't know a single thing about this old man except his name which is Cane..
I have to get information first before trusting him about information about me
"Hmmm, all I know is that you're truly an astonishing person since your house is in the heart of the forest which no one even dared to go to"
"You see all I'm gonna say to you kiddo is that I'll try incorporating both teachings to you!! that's why you got to constantly push your body to the limits for easy natural energy absorption in the morning then at night you have to earnestly meditate and push your internal veins to it's maximum capacity for your body energy to keep on growing then you'll see in the future what it means!!"
then Cane continued to walk out of the room laughing..
But then, he stopped again and told kiddo
"Okay, now get yourself to move!! finish the tasks and start training!!"
"YES MASTER!!"
