Chapter 303 How

?"I see,"

Atticus muttered under his breath as he got to the other side of the stage.

Jared couldn't help but raise an eyebrow hearing him. What did he see?

'Could it be that he figured ou-' Jared interrupted his line of thought himself, subtly shaking his head, 'No, it's not possible,' he dismissed the thought completely.

'You're truly the monster that we all witnessed on the screens,' he thought with a huge hint of approval.

Jared had expected a lot from Atticus during this spar, but if he had to be honest, he hadn't been expecting this much.

Atticus's prowess was shocking, to say the least. Many of the operators and Isabella had already suspected that Atticus had awakened his perception already.

This suspicion had come when Atticus battled the shadow Seraphon back in the caves.

Considering all his feats, they wouldn't be completely shocked about this if it ended up being true.

Although it was rare for someone other than an Enigmalnk family member to awaken before entering the expert rank, it was exactly that, rare not impossible.

But Jared hadn't watched the battle with the shadow Seraphon. He had no idea the little monster had even battled a master- rank beast.

It was exactly during this spar that he discovered the shocking revelation that Atticus had awakened his perception.

At the end of the day, Atticus was still a 15 year old boy. But fighting the boy today, Atticus had completely surpassed everything Jared had expected.

The boy clearly had all his powers locked, but even then, he still stood his ground!

'I've really enjoyed this, but I guess it's about time I end it,'

Not giving Atticus any time to breathe, a blue translucent glow enveloped both of Jared's legs as he moved, instantaneously closing the distance between Atticus and him.

Appearing in front of Atticus, a supersonic punch shot out towards Atticus's face.

But Atticus had been completely focused on Jared's movements. Even though his body struggled to match Jared's new found speed, Jared was still moving slowly in his perception.

He simply adjusted how much time he needed to start moving to dodge Jared's movement.

Before Jared had moved, Atticus's form had already started moving.

His head darted to the side, narrowly evading Jared's brutal punch.

But Jared wasn't done, his massive figure moved with speed as he unleashed punches upon punches, adding kicks to the fray at regular intervals.

All of the students focused their gazes on the unfolding fight. The ones that had been smirking and uttering derogatory remarks at Atticus had long since shut up.

It was clear to everyone that their instructor was somehow using mana, so just how was this boy still standing?

'Damn, he's still keeping up!?' Jared was completely flabbergasted.

Granted the amounts of mana he could control because he lost the connection to his mana core were limited, but even then, his speed had already long since passed that of the Advanced rank.

Yet, Atticus was still keeping up with him.

'Hmm, let's see if you would show me something mind blowing,' Jared thought with giddy anticipation.

Although the amount of mana he could control was limited, Jared still had a lot of things he could do with the atmospheric mana.

Things that would undoubtedly end this fight immediately. But gazing at Atticus, it was obvious the youth was planning something.

Jared decided to wait and see what would happen.

Atticus was completely in a surreal state. In order to keep dodging the attacks that were clearly faster than him, Atticus had to plan far ahead of time.

Which meant that he had to focus completely on Jared's form and capture every single nuance he made.

But of course, this wasn't perfect as he got hit a lot of times, but he never once stopped and still kept on going.

What made it harder was that Atticus had figured out something earlier. He had an idea of how Jared had been controlling the mana in the atmosphere.

Earlier, immediately Atticus had scrutinized and didn't see any visual cues as to how he controlled the mana, he had immediately switched his senses to his sense of feel.

But unfortunately, he couldn't release a mana pulse from his mana core since he had his connection to his mana temporarily blocked.

So he had to make do with whatever the mana in the air got in contact with.

Regardless, that had been more than enough as the man was literally controlling the mana in the atmosphere, making it get in contact with him a lot.

What Atticus had seen had been simple. He saw some kind of yellow wave move from Jared's form and then the next instant the mana in the atmosphere trembling slightly before it started moving and gravitating towards Jared's figure.

Either to wrap around his body or to form a shield in front of him and block attacks.

Immediately Atticus felt this scene, he instantly narrowed down the options.

Firstly, Atticus was sure that what Jared had just accomplished wasn't something only the Stellaris family could do.

Apart from his bloodline being locked, this was obviously what Jared had wanted to teach them. If only the Stellaris family could do it, what would be the point?

Which meant that it had to be something everyone had or could eventually have.

And Atticus didn't have to think that long, instantly narrowing down his options, he came to one conclusion: Will.

Jared was somehow using his will to control the mana in the atmosphere.

And after coming to this conclusion, Atticus set to work.

'But where do i start from?' Atticus thought as he once again dodged a barrage of punches from Jared.

Atticus had no doubt that his current will would match even late 20 year olds.

And given the fact that Jared planned to teach them this ability this early, it was obvious that he at least should be overqualified to learn this ability.

There was only one problem; he didn't know how.
