Chapter 15 Mental Energy
Chapter 15 Mental Energy
Entering the [Clan], they noticed that it was very big inside. There were also many (Dogs) of different races there. Some had their whole coat black, others gray, blue and many others ... looking at the center of the [Dog Clan], there was a large majestic hall made of stones. Which under the Sun's rays, they appeared even more majestic. In the middle of this great majestic hall was a (Flaming Dog) very similar toJka, but he was almost twice his size, and he was in the 10th Tier of the Student Kingdom.
Theo: "Wow! He seems to be very strong!" Theo thought when seeing the strength of this (Flaming Dog). Theo could barely stop himself from gasping at this (Flaming Dog) since even while being so far, he could feel a strong mana and [Fire] oppression.
Jka arrived in front of this (Flaming Dog) and said, "Father! These are friends of mine that I just met! The (Fox) with the golden coat is Theo and white (Fox) is his mate, Yuki."
(Leader of the Dog Clan): "Oh, welcome! I am Lekei, the [Dog Clan Leader] and Jka's father. Since you are my son's friends, you can stay over at our clan." He said, then began to laugh, showing his sharp teeth.
"Thank you!" Theo replied.
Jka: "Come, I'll take you to my house!" He said and smiled.
Theo and Yuki followed Jka, heading toward a well-built house that was painted red. This house was surrounded by low walls made of white stones, giving a certain charm to the house. Jka, when arriving in front of this house, stopped and said "Auhaha! This is my house! It cost me a lot of [Magic Cores] so I could pay the (Monkey) from the [Monkey Clan] to build it. What did you think?"Jka started to laugh and asked.
Theo: "It's really good!" Theo answered honestly.
Jka: "Right?! Auhaha. Come I want to introduce you to my lifemate!" He said, entering the courtyard of the house.
As they entered the house's courtyard, there was a female (Animal) of the (Dog) race laying on the patio. She had a white-bluish coat and her size was a little larger than Yuki.
When she noticed someone coming, she looked towards them with her light blue eyes.
Looking at her, Theo soon saw her information. She was a (Storm Dog) and was in the 9th Tier of the Apprentice Kingdom.
When she saw Jka arrive, she jumped up. Going in the direction of Jka and began to rub her face on his chest showing her affection.
Seeing the sign of affection between them, Theo remembered that Yuki always did the same thing with him, which made him think that it must how (Animals) demonstrate affection.
Jka: "Klin, these are my new friends, Theo and Yuki, his mate."
Klin also couldn't speak, so she just nodded in response.
"Nice to meet you! I'm Theo, and by my side is Yuki." Theo said.
Yuki lowered her head toward Klin, as a courtesy.
"Theo, what do you intend to do from now on? Do you have a place to stay?" Jka asked.
At first, Theo thought it would be good to stay in a [Village], but remembering the [System] and how it would risky for him if someone starts to ask how he rises so fast, it would be a pain in the ass to deal with it. So he decided to continue living alone with Yuki, and just come to [Ang Village] for a few days at most every time. Since he got a lot of information from Jka and he knew that it takes a long time to raise their cultivation, for Jka needed 20 years to reach the level of his current cultivate and that was already considered fast, because in this [Village], despite being large, they only had very low-rank cultivation techniques so they couldn't absorb so much energy. Even when they absorbed mana with their [Magic Core], it took a long time for them to absorb it.
"Well, I'm currently living on the edge of the forest, and I have no plans to move at the moment," Theo replied.
Jka: "I understand... stay here for today! It's getting dark, you can sleep at my house, you and Yuki are welcome!"
Theo: "Is it really okay?"
Jka: "Auhaha, of course, you're my friend, don't worry!" He answered as he laughed.
"If we aren't bothering, we'd be happy to stay!" Theo replied gratefully. He wanted to stay a little longer since he would like to talk to Jka for longer, for he was the first one he ever talked to since he reincarnated.
Jka: "Sure, no problem." He nodded happily.
Entering Jka's house, it was like a great hall, without many things in it, but the inside was very beautiful. Theo was very surprised because, inside the house, many parts of the walls had multi-coloured precious stones in them, illuminating the house.
Theo thought that if he went to his past life's world, these stones would be worth a lot of money. "And to think Jka would have many of them as decorations for his house." Theo thought in surprise.
Seeing Theo admiring the interior of his house, Jka began to laugh and said, "Auhaha! Isn't it beautiful?"
"Yes!" Theo nodded.
Jka: "Well, there's only one here, I'll be looking for one for you to sleep on," he said as he left the house.
Not long after, Jka came back putting a big mattress in front of him, surprising Theo with it.
Theo: "H-How did you do that?" Theo asked, stammering in surprise as Jka put the mattress down.
Jka: "I trained my [Mental Power] up to a certain level since it's quite convenient" he replied.
"Oh! How can I do it?" Theo asked.
"I had to train my mental energy, spending it every day to increase gradually. I've heard that there are mental techniques that help increase it several times faster, but they are very rare, so I can only increase my mental energy this way." Said Jka.
"I see... and how do I manifest my mental energy?" Theo asked curiously.
Jka looked at Theo seriously and replied, "You need to focus and use your divine sense on your target, and then you have to try to move with your mind."
"Right!" Listening to what Jka said, Theo closed his eyes concentrating and used his [Divine Sense] covering the mattress. After he saw that he did it, Theo began to use his mental energy, trying to levitate the mattress and making the mattress shake a little, almost making it levitate.
Seeing this, Jka opened his mouth in an O-shaped, surprised by Theo's [Mental Power].
Soon after, Theo stopped using his mental energy, breathing somewhat heavy and whispered quietly, however it was loud enough for Jka to hear: "Uffa! It's harder than I thought..."
Hearing what Theo said, Jka soon got out of his stupor and said "Harder than you think? Do you know how much time I needed to be able to do what you just did?" Before Theo even replied, he said "A whole year of training my mental energy!! And you got it on your first try, and still say it's a bit difficult? "Jka spoke a little hysterically.
Theo was very surprised by Jka's reaction, he did not imagine it was so hard to do what he did.
Yuki who was listening to all the time saw that he could do something very difficult so easily, so she was very proud and happy for Theo.
Theo: "Hm... I did not imagine it was supposed to be that difficult," he replied, thinking he still had many things he did not know.
Calming down, Jka said, "At first I wanted you to train trying to levitate a small rock but seeing you already have a strong mental energy, I don't think it's necessary." Jka spoke and asked a rhetorical question "Speak the truth! You had trained your mental energy before, right?"
Seeing Jka's reaction, Theo could not help but think it was funny, chuckling a little and said: "Of course not!" Seriously. "I really didn't know about it!" Theo said.
Seeing that Theo didn't seem to be lying, Jka said "You have a great talent in mental energy then! I think you should devote yourself to increase your mental power. I have not yet reached a very high level using mineā¦" Jka said and continued "But I know that those who have been able to increase their mental power by a lot could even destroy a person's mind or drive them crazy!" Jka explained.
At first, Theo wanted to learn to use his mental energy when he saw Jka use it because he thought that this way he could make even better food, but hearing Jka explain how strong the mental energy could be, he was quite surprised and also decided increase his mental energy.
Theo: "Sigh~ Thank you for explaining all this to me!" He said gratefully to Jka for teaching him about mental energy. Theo even thought about trying to buy a mental energy technique later.
After talking for a long time with Jka, and getting sleepy, they went to sleep.
