Day 26

Today I wanted to focus solely on training. So who better to ask than the strongest person I know? Mother obviously. After the little skirmish with the orcs yesterday I realized that I was still too weak and I needed to get stronger if I was going to survive.

"Mother can you help me train?"-Me

"Hahaha. This is the first time one of my brood asked me to train them. You are quite special. I think you have the fastest growth rate out of all of my children."-Mother

"How many children have you had?"-Me

"Hmmm... I lost track. I think around 20.. but about 6 died I think. Anyway I'll train you."-Mother

"Really!!!"-Me

I jumped up and down excitedly which seemed to amuse mother, considering that I was 6 foot and while she was about 15 feet tall I must've looked cute to her.

Cuteness +1

"Now follow me."-Mother

I followed Mother and she led us to a clearing where there is enough room for her to move around without any hindrances.

"Now attack me."-Mother

At first I was surprised but without hesitation I rushed to attack her.

I activated mana strengthening and hit her with my paw on her front leg.. To my dismay it did absolutely no damage. She wasn't even using her mana strengthening to protect herself. I at least expected to cut her a little.

I quickly backed away because I got a bad feeling from my gut.

*ding*

Instinct +1

It was a good thing that I moved when I did because mother's massive paw came down crashing towards me. Luckily it missed.

I looked at where she stomped on the ground and was terrified. There were cracks in the dirt and a hole that was about 3 feet deep and 6 feet wide.

I almost pissed myself.

"Fufufu... I'm surprised you were able to dodge that. Hmm... I should have held back a little bit, the earth here is weak."-Mother

'HUH?? Mother is absolutely insane!'

I regretted my decision of asking her for help.

I felt a killing intent directed right at me. Every cell in my body screamed at me to run away or I would die. I pissed myself and blacked out.

Day 27

Ugghh.. I was groggy because I passed out.

"Are you okay? I apologize for not holding back against you. I got a little excited after seeing you dodge."-Mother

"....it's... okay."-Me

I was still a little foggy on what happened.

"Umm... What happened? What made me pass out?"-Me

"Oh. That was my killing intent. You basically force your will outwards towards your opponents to intimidate them. If the difference in strength is really strong then the creature can make it's opponent pass out."-Mother

"Is there a way for me to learn it too?"-Me

"Haha.. you sure are a energetic one. The answer is no. You will probably learn it after going to many battles."-Mother

I must have had a depressed look on my face because mother laughed and said.

"Do not worry. I'm sure you will be able to get the hang of it soon."-Mother

The cheered me up a bit.

Mother gave me some meat to eat, which I ate and she asked me if I still wanted her to train me. I replied with a yes and after I was finished eating she led me to the same place as yesterday.

"So after watching your pathetic attempt at trying to attack  me yesterday I realized that your mana strengthening is pitifully weak. Well compared to your siblings you are a cut above them but to me you are like little hill compared to a mountain. So today we will be focusing on how you can use your mana strengthening in battle and how to make it stronger."-Mother

"Now activate your mana strengthening."-Mother

I did as she was told.

"Now look at mine."-Mother

Mother's was clearly more refined than mine. And by that I meant hers was more fluid and relaxed like and more of her mana was able to come out of her body. Mine fluctuated violently like I was unable to control it and it was kind of like a second layer of skin that covered you. (imagine mother's to be like goku in super saiyan mode while I have my energy barely outside of my skin)

"Now the most easiest way to strengthen your mana strengthening technique is to get hit... a lot."-Mother

"Huh?"-Me

She deactivated her mana and hit me with her paw. Luckily I still had my mana strengthening still on and didn't get much damage.... kinda.

I flew 20 feet off the ground and into the stream nearby. I felt seriously bruised and I think I broke a rib... again... There were some windows popping up but I ignored them as my vision was getting hazy and I got knocked out... again... by mother.
