Chapter 8 - Unique Elements
The elements that were very rare to see from his past world was harnessed in his past life. On a hundred of thousands of people in the Almarian continent, there were only ten thousands of them.
These unique elements were the Spirit element, Poison element, Shadow element, Holy element, and last, Nature element. They were unique in his past world and thus were more uncommon.
There were at least small numbers of people that wield such elements and Joan was one of them.
From his memories, these elements were wielded with unique job classes. An example was the Necromancer that uses shadow element to his skills and the Rogue that also uses the same.
Such elements were deeply needed to use the element-related skills for the skill to be usable.
Such job classes sometimes were not having the required element that caused the skills sub-par or sometimes unusable in combat. .
But what happened to use the [Heal] spell in the past battle on the man-eating tiger was because of the deep understanding and comprehension of Joan.
It made a miracle to use it due to the past Joan's potential to the Holy element itself.
Proceeding to the Unique elements, he readied himself for the cultivation. Starting to be in a lotus position first then focused on himself.
He first cultivated the Spirit element. With the Spirit essence he has, he cultivated it within himself. Imagining its feeling when he used it in the past.
He then managed to comprehend the element and it was very tricky to handle it. It was fighting back his movement to his mana well that made it like it was alive and struggling.
He successfully absorbed it to his mana well with minutes of fighting. It was a tough battle that almost consumed all his focus and willpower to make it his own.
All was very hard at first but all have come to fruition. All his efforts were not wasted by the time he can harness the element.
With a pure and colorless burning fire on his palm, he can see that the Spirit element was in his grasp.
Next was the Shadow element. The element that was so rare when it comes to the Rogue job classes.
Being able to harness this element makes the Rogue leap its prowess by another realm.
This element was so special for him because it made him survive many battles by escaping.
Its only problem was the holy element can cancel it sometimes if the caster was greater than him in terms of power.
From what he remembered, this element was unlocked second only to the Holy element.
He had a hard time unlocking the element due to the opposite element of Holy that repels it.
Without wasting time, he cultivated the Shadow element. Not wanting for the hard-earned essence to gone to waste.
He circulated the element inside his body around his mana well and Joan can feel its tingling sensation inside his abdomen.
It was a success on his part as he felt that his mana well absorbed it successfully.
After making it his own, he summoned the element to his palm as he opened it.
He cultivated and made the essence larger until it became a proper element.
Making a ball of black fire on his hands made his heart utterly joyful. Making it like a prize for doing all his efforts.
The next element was the Holy element. This element was what they say the weakest.
But due to him unlocking his potential, he managed to be stronger than his peers.
He prepared to have greater willpower as the opposing elements will battle like a cat and dog that didn't like each other.
He cultivated the element and he can feel that the Shadow element was interfering with his cultivation.
Making it harder for him to cultivate. With more efforts and a calm mind to stabilise the two raging elements, he was sweating profusely and was struggling.
The two elements were eating each other and so, Joan cultivated both elements while making his mana well absorb it at the same time.
By doing so, he made both elements to be supplied with mana to grow and not to die out. And at the same time to make the Holy element his own.
He made small progress towards absorbing it. Slowly but surely, he was absorbing the element.
He was on the verge of surrendering while multi-tasking, but he managed to pull it off in the last seconds.
Making him fail if he surrendered a second late.
Even though it was hard, he managed to stabilise the elements. He went to the kitchen afterwards to calm himself, drinking water hastily.
"This sure is hard to take but I managed to calm them both," said Joan while watching the bright Holy light on his palm.
He entered the room again and went to cultivate another element.
It was non-other than the Poison element. He started to absorb the element and he can feel himself becoming weaker and weaker.
It was because he was still not immune to the element and started to feel nauseated and wanted to vomit.
He can feel the element being absorbed and so, he felt better and better as time passes by.
Cultivating it by making his essence becoming stronger and stronger until he can create a floating purple ball of poison.
He was struggling at first but it was a success on his part. The only problem was he was getting tired to succeed in the last element.
He rested for a while to regain strength and then proceeded to the next element. The last one he has to know–the Nature element.
He has the Nature essence inside him so he cultivated it. Succeeding by making the same procedure to absorb it.
With more efforts from his sheer will, he managed to create a green ball that has many leaves. He made it encircling the ball as it floats around it like the moon rotating the Earth.
The green light of the Nature element was made and he can only smile in glee as he made it his own.
The element was now stable as he can see that he was not struggling to use it.
He can only giggle as he awakened all the elements. He stopped using the Nature element as his father woke up from his slumber.
"Hey, Joan! Are you still awake? What is that giggle of yours? Sleep now or I will spank you!" his father said to him.
"Okay, Dad! I will sleep," said Joan.
Thinking that he has all the elements, he can only giggle in his mind. It was only him to pull it off in the past and it was what he discovered himself. Mastering all the Elements was equals to mastering all the job class.
