…’WATER AURA 1 – ATLANTA WAVE’…
His sword started radiating with Energy as he swung it towards the flames. A small wave of water extinguished a significant amount of fire.
…’This is good enough, I can work with it’…
He felt a bit of exhaustion after he used his skill, but he was nowhere near his limit. He took his stance again and swung his sword at the fire again, this time the wave being almost twice the size of the first one. Even more flames were extinguished this time, but so was his Energy.
After another two swings, he was exhausted. His arms were numb and his legs could barely move. It was then when he heard a lot of loud footsteps coming from behind him.
…’What the heck did you do?!’ , asked Hikari. ‘Oh… some of the fire is…. Did you do this?’…
…’Well, yes’, Ichiro responded, ‘I couldn’t really just sit here idling and watching this like it’s a campfire’…
…’Hm.. okay. Try to rest for a bit, you already extinguished almost half of it. You’re really pale as well.’…
After Hikari told him to rest, she focused her attention back to the fire and the two who came to help. They were way better at managing their energy than Ichiro, even though their spells were seemingly weaker.
Right when they were taking care of the last flames, five people in black clothing jumped from the bushes, trying to assault Hikari.
…’You’re going to need more than that’…
She extended her arms in both ways and fire burst from one of her hands and lighting from the other. Only one of the attackers managed to dodge it and run away, while the others were left unconscious on the ground.
…’Still think I didn’t hold back against you?’, she asked as she glanced to Ichiro….
…’Ah… no thanks’…
Everyone approached the bodies on the ground. One of the guys who helped with the fire looked up in disgust after he used his water to analize a body.
…’This is horrifying. These four are dead corpses, which Aura embedded to their rotten brains., he said….
…’What? Who in their right mind would do this?’, said Hikari….
She looked down at the bodies and saw a piece of clothing on one of them. She picked it up and noticed a very familiar pattern.
…’Yo I think I found something’…
The others approached her as she was holding handing out the piece of clothing.
…’I might be wrong’, said Ichiro, ‘but isn’t this the kind of material and craftsmanship that the Ryoken Dojo next to us uses?’…
…’Wait.. you might be right. That’s why it seems so familiar too. Let’s not jump to conclusions now, we’re going to talk to Sensei first, but let’s bury these bodies somewhere’, said Hikari….
After they finished the work, the two “water guys”, as Ichiro liked to call them, went to replenish some of their depleted Energy, while Ichiro and Hikari went straight to Wu to find out if their assumptions were correct.
Ichiro went to his room while Hikari talked with Wu about the problem. The second he opened the door to the room, he jumped in the bed. The exhaustion of using so many new spells in such a short while was affecting him a lot and the stress of a possible beef with another Dojo wasn’t helping. Right before he came in his room, Sensei told him that he was promoted to rank C-4, which was huge, but nowhere near what he wanted to do. Nonetheless, his first goal was to evolve and control Water Aura 1 better.
About an hour passed when Hikari came to him to discuss about what Sensei told her.
…’So, what did you find out?’, he asked….
…’Well, you were right about where these guys came from. The problem is that this attack is probably not the last and it’s very weird because nobody knows what the causes are and it makes peacekeeping so much more difficult. Also, you’ll need to master your water skills quick, 70% of the enemy’s “army” is made of fire masters, so water will be welcome, understood?’…
…’Uh.. yes, I understand’ …
…’Good. Now rest a bit. Your endurance is in a bad state and it doesn’t help that you used that new skill so much. See you tomorrow’ …
…’Okay, sleep well’, said Ichiro. …
Hikari looked back at him as he said that.
…’As if’, she muttered. …
Afterwards, she closed the door. Ichiro heard what she said and was in a deep and weird confusion, but he brushed it off quickly. He decided to make some notes about the skill he used today and look over the other skills. If the others needed him so much then he had to try way harder than that.
Twenty minutes later, he finished reading the last paragraph of his notes and was ready to go to sleep, but, right there and then, an idea hit him.
…’Wait a second’, he said as he got up from bed as quick as he could, ‘so Ice is the secondary element and if I remember correctly the two primary elements used for it are Water and Air’…
He started searching for a paper Wu gave him so he could understand the elements better. He quickly found it and looked over the “elemental reactions” section.
…’Exactly what I needed. Maybe it will strain me a bit more, but Ice can do wonders against fire’ …
He read about it for a few minutes and hardly understood anything, but, he was happy that he found another way to make his powers useful, both for the others and himself.
The boy jumped in bed as soon as he finished reading, and, even if he wanted to get up again, his body fought against any will he had to get up and so he fell into a deep sleep, not knowing what is yet to come.
