- Next Morning -

  “Uroi. Wake up, let's go to the training grounds.”

  “Agggh! I’m dying, Kori.”

  “Ah!!! Don’t scare me like that. You look like a corpse, what happened?”

  “I think I have a fever. Please tell master Ken I can’t do physical training today.”

  Ah, I forget that he’s just a kid. Unlike me he has everyday problems to deal with. It's my responsibility to keep him and others safe this time around so they can keep on living peaceful lives.

  “Don’t worry I let him know. You rest well, Uroi. I’ll let master Shiri know about your health, she’ll give you medicine to recover faster.”

  “Thanks Kori.”

  Come to think of it, he would’ve never said thank you if he weren’t sick.

  - Afterwards Kori went by his day -

  - Later that Evening at Training Grounds -

  “How are you feeling, senior brother?”

  “I feel like I’m gonna vomit!”

  “That is normal senior brother. Just keep concentrating.”

  Yesterday, brother Ryuk started his aura training. Due to his condition he can’t draw out his aura fully, but he has a great aura centre with the same level of aura stored as of a Third Gen Martial Master.

  In the martial world, there are several levels of aura that are common to all types of aura centres. The lowest level of aura can be found in any normal human being. Their bodies absorb natural energy but they aren’t trained to draw out their aura.

  One level above are people who can draw their aura, called Martial Disciples. There are four generations of Martial Disciples — fourth to first. Uroi would be a fourth, I would be second and brother Kavi would be at the first generation level.

  Above that, is the Martial Master level with three generations. Brother Ryuk and brother Kavi are at the third generation level when it comes to aura strength. However, because of the Zavaru body, brother Ryuk is still at the level of first gen Martial Disciple when it comes to martial arts.

  “Am I doing it correctly, junior brother?”

  “Yes, senior brother. Just keep breathing the natural energy and turn it into aura.”

  The aura flows in one direction in the body. The aura centre is like a spiral with a point of origin that flows in circur motion in only one direction but it has multiple endpoints that also flow in the same direction. Either clockwise or anti-clockwise. The endpoints supply aura to multiple body parts like arms and legs.

  Normally a person can draw aura from these ends to whichever body part they desire and however much they desire. But the Zavaru body has fewer endpoints in comparison and these endpoints aren’t always uniform.

  The body itself rejects and sometimes suppresses these ends without control resulting in less aura being drawn. The only way to draw more aura is to accumute more of it in the centre, however there comes a time when even this stops working and the body gets stuck at the same level without any future growth.

  “It’s hard doing it this way. I feel like I’m going against nature.”

  “That’s exactly what you need to do, senior brother. Just keep concentrating.”

  The best method to tackle Zavaru body is to create an aura centre in the brain from the beginning, but that method is too dangerous and only good for mage type warriors. Not at all suitable for senior brother who is a martial artist and already has an aura centre in his abdomen. So I had him do the…

  “It’s done, junior brother. The aura centre in my heart has been formed.”

  “Great senior brother.”

  “Although it is small. No matter, I’ll work hard to make it bigger everyday.”

  “I’ll see you tomorrow, senior brother.”

  “Yes! Let’s do our best, junior brother Kori!”

  Alright. Senior brother has formed an aura centre in his heart too. With this, he will be able to draw more aura. But one issue still remains. With this method, he will feel extreme pressure inside the body because the aura in both centres is flowing opposite to each other.

  As he stores more aura, the flow will get stronger and it will feel like his organs are getting crushed by the aura centres. But I won’t let that happen, I’ll make sure that he survives this and gets stronger.

  Alright, I need to find that herb quickly…

  - Kori repeated the same routine in the upcoming days, he would do the physical training in the morning, help Ryuk with his aura training in the evening and do his aura training at night. -
