"Amon, now that the boring one is gone, let's get down to business." Julia said with a smile: "The intercollegiate tournament will start this Monday, most likely they'll let you participate too. What do you think, are you interested?"
"Are there sports?" Amon asked.
"Yes, but the main focus is the fighting tournament." Maisa said.
"Fight... Are they strong?" Amon asked.
" Err ... If you compare them to yourself who defeated 3 adults, maybe not; but you never know if you will find a tiger disguised as a lamb." Julia laughed.
"... So are they weak?" Amon asked blankly.
"Well, your brother Elijah is level 19 and he's the strongest in the school. If there's anyone else they must be well hidden. However, the top 5 will fight the other five best schools, there may be someone there who has passed level 20." Julia said and smiled with her eyes closed.
"Alright, I will participate," Amon said.
"Yes!" Maisa made a victory sign with a clenched fist from under the table.
Amon looked at her strangely.
"Don't worry about me, I just got a red coupon with 500 credits, so I'm happy." Maisa said, disguising her excitement.
"Oh..." Amon wiped his mouth and said, "I'm done, I'm going to wash the dishes and go upstairs."
If it was before, he would simply wash the dishes and leave without saying a word, which meant he was at least opening up a little to them.
Of course, his undisciplined ways were still there, even the way he walked. After he finished washing the dishes, Amon went upstairs.
With the bedroom door closed, Amon sat on the floor and began to meditate.
Closing his eyes he saw the rune: [Heart Without Limits].
Whenever he did this and focused on it, Amon felt an inexplicable sensation. It wasn't a simple pleasure like drinking water when you're thirsty or even eating delicious food when you're hungry; it was more than that. But, to get that feeling, Amon needed absolute concentration.
His soul seemed to come out of his body and revolve around the rune: [Heart Without Limits] and seemed to be absorbed by it, but Amon didn't feel danger coming from it, so he allowed it.
Then a sensation came and made Amon grunt.
*Knock...Knock...*
Amon was irritated by the noise of someone knocking on his door but managed to calm down. He was interrupted and could not continue. Getting up, impatient, he opened the door and asked when he saw Julia: "Need something?"
Julia is a lighthearted person, but she was intimidated by Amon's impatient tone and shivered a little, but she was brave: "I wanted to know which element is your genetics."
"I haven't tested it yet, my grandparents wouldn't allow it." Amon replied indifferently.
"They didn't, but why? The sooner you know, the faster you can grow and become even stronger. You know, it's very difficult to fill in the genes that open up." Julia said hastily, a little confused.
"Do you know how to take the test?" Amon asked. He always wanted to know, but his grandparents stopped him.
"I know, but it's only at school; if you go to the principal and ask, he should let you take the test." Julia replied.
"By the way, mine is water. I've already filled 2 genes with water." She smiled, "See, isn't that cool?"
"Amon, you bought something online, delivery arrived for you." Sonia's voice came from downstairs.
Amon frowned. He obviously didn't buy it.
He went downstairs and Julia followed him.
It was a small package, 30 cm long and 10 cm wide.
The delivery man gave it to him, and said, "Open it when you're alone, that's what the person who sent it to you said."
"..."
Julia and Sonia were confused. Was this normal?
They've never seen a delivery person say something like that when delivering a package.
"Amon, open up let me see." Julia was curious.
"No." Amon shook his head, mercilessly, and climbed the stairs.
Sonia gave Julia a sympathetic smile as she rested a hand on her shoulder.
Amon entered the room and closed the door.
Opening the package, there was a box.
Taking the lid off the box, he saw a folded paper, a stick with a white stone at the end, and a bracelet.
[This card will be destroyed within 1 minute of being opened so read quickly]
Amon recognized the handwriting, it was from his grandfather.
[We are alive, but we needed to fake our death. You can no longer count on our help, but don't worry, everything I needed to teach, I taught you. By the way, this stick is what you've always wanted, this is to test your affinity for elements. However, don't let anyone see your test, and the bracelet is to hide your fury genetics. Don't let anyone know you have those genetics! Grandpa and Grandma love you, and if you ever want to see us again, get strong fast. At the moment you are not allowed to meet us, it is too dangerous. Only when you get ten genetic unlocks will you be able to know the whole truth. Of course, if you want to live a quiet and worry-free life, disregard this...]
The letter starts to catch fire.
Holding the stick, he channeled his common genetics. The stick glowed.
[Lightning and... Fury!]
A robotic voice came out of the stick and half stopped saying fury and then the stick fell apart.
'Strange.' Amon looked at the remaining ashes in his hand and grabbed a broom to clean up after wearing the silver bracelet. There was nothing special about the bracelet, but when he wore it, he felt something prick his wrist. He frowned, but he didn't see any kind of needle and could move the bracelet normally.
Putting that aside, he swept up the ashes off the letter and stick.
Taking the smartphone he got from his mother, Amon opened the internet and searched: Lightning
He opened the one with the most information.
[Lightning is a very intense electrical current that occurs in the atmosphere with a typical duration of half a second and a typical trajectory with a length of 5 to 10 km.
The phenomenon is a consequence of the rapid movement of electrons from one place to another. Electrons move so fast that they make the air around them light up, resulting in a flash and heat, which generate a sound: thunder. Although they are usually associated with storms with heavy rain and intense winds, lightning can also occur in snowstorms, sandstorms, during volcanic eruptions, or even in non-storm clouds, although in these cases they usually have additional causes and the intensity is much smaller. When the lightning connects to the ground it is called lightning, which can be called ascending, when it starts on the ground and goes up towards the storm, or descending, when it starts in the storm and descends towards the ground.
Lightning is the spark of light caused by the discharge of atmospheric electricity. The discharge can be: (1) between two parts of the same cloud; (2) from one cloud to another; (3) between the cloud and the Earth. Thunder is the noise of the discharge, due to the explosive expansion of air by heating. Air offers great resistance to an electrical current, and its passage through the air produces rapid heating. Lightning is a direct non-alternating discharge, and its duration is from 0.0002 seconds to a full second or more in multiple discharges (successive sparks along the same trajectory). Current ranges from a few thousand to 100,000 amps, and the potential difference is on the order of 100,000,000 volts.
The common names, zigzag, branched and flash for lightning, are used when the trajectory of the discharge is visible, whether between the cloud and the Earth or from one cloud to another. The trajectory of a discharge is not really a zigzag, but it is often curved and full of branches. Flash lightning is the sudden flash of cloud and sky, by a discharge whose trajectory is not seen. In that case, the storm is far away.
A rare and curious form of lightning, not yet well explained, is called ball lightning, and it consists of balls, or luminous masses, which move at moderate speeds and last for a few seconds. Disturbing effects on radio equipment, called noise or static, can originate from electrical discharges in the form of lightning; and thus the position of distant storms can be determined using two or more oscillographs or radio directional equipment located at known distances from each other.]
'I understand.' Amon read it and understood what he wanted to know.
Closing his eyes he saw the rune: [Heart Without Limits].
His soul seemed to leave his body and revolve around the rune: [Heart Without Limits]. But other than being left to be pulled by the rune, he tried to imagine creating lightning.
The rune seemed to resonate with his thought, and it started to spin at high speed. Soon everything becomes a flash, Amon's mind is in a state of enlightenment. He was understanding something that made him know how to use and not get hurt by lightning.
Outside, it thundered. The skies darkened with black clouds and lightning fell steadily.
The electricity went out. There was a blast and the transformer in the street exploded, catching fire.
Amon opened his eyes.
<Lightning Gene + 5>
Amon's body was radiating lightning, his eyes flashing with it, and his clothes were torn.
Amon took a breath and sighed several times. Then he got up.
Changing clothes, he cleaned up the mess that had happened in the room.
He heard the voices of his mother, Julio, Julia, and Maísa talking about the lack of light.
After testing it several times, he got it. His intent was what commanded the genes that were filled with lightning. In his sea of consciousness, he could see the 21 red Fury genes and the 21 that used to be white, but now, there were five golden ones.
'Next time, I'm going to a mountain.' He didn't want to bring trouble to his mother's family.
