The Fox Goddess

Chapter 229 Aika’s Test Part 2

?"I believe in you, sweetie. I know that you can do it. Believe in yourself, Mommy is always beside you if you ever need any help." Yuki said to Aika just to assure her.

Aika wipes her eyes that were tearing up, she then showed her Mommy a smile before looking at the Elemental clones. Luckily for her, she is not going to fight them all at once, she just needs to pick one and defeat them, by either knocking them out or killing them.

The test then has started now, and Aika's first enemy is her Blood Clone. While she was learning how to play the Flute, she also learned some pretty easy martial arts that she could use if things got serious. Aika then clenched her little fist, before starting to play the Flute.

Instantly, all of the watchers saw a music wave that was coming out of Aika's Flute and started to attack the Blood Clone, but the Blood Clone reacted quickly and dodged out of the way of the music wave.

That was the only flaw of the "Lullaby of the Fairy" is that it releases a music wave that is visible if you are not proficient in using the Flute. So, enemies would have the chance to dodge the attack. But, as you get better at playing, the range would get bigger, and the music wave would be invisible to the eye. Using the Mana/Qi sense would also be useless.

"Aika, dodge it!" Yuki yelled when she saw that the Blood Clone was getting closer to Aika.

Fortunately, Yuki's warning was just on time, and Aika managed to dodge the Blood Claws from the Blood Clone.

"You want to play unfair huh? Aika, don't be afraid. This is your power." Yuki then makes herself bleed, by stabbing an Ice Dagger at her hand. Yuki then threw the blood in Aika's direction.

"Control it. Do whatever you want with the blood. You are its master, it will do anything that you like." Yuki said, then seconds later, the hole on her hand vanished.

Initially, Aika was scared because her Mommy suddenly stabbed herself. But, because Yuki said that it was alright since it's her power. So, Aika then closed her eyes and began to wish about what she wanted to do with the blood.

Suddenly, Yuki's blood that was on the ground started to move. It then rushed forward to the Blood Clone and pierced its body.

"Close your eyes," Yuki muttered, and Aika then did as she was told and closed her eyes. She was saddened that she accidentally killed her enemy, what she initially wanted was to just strain the clone, but because her imagination was still not correct. The result of it was this.

Ding!

[Aika has finished 1/10 of her test. Moving into the next one, Light Clone.]

Yuki heard a notification, then she saw the previous unmoving Light Element suddenly move, and rushed forward to Aika.

But, this time was different. Aika is already ready, and at the perfect moment, chains that were made of light shoot out behind Aika, it then perfectly immobilizes the enemy this time. Seeing this, Aika then began playing her flute, and just moments later the Light Clone was put to sleep.

Seconds later, Yuki again heard Fubuki's notification about finishing the Light Clone. Aika now moves on into the Dark Clone.

"You are doing a very great job Aika." Yuki congratulated Aika, and Aika showed her a cute smile.

Then, it now comes to her third opponent which is the Dark Clone. And from Yuki's experience, it would be troublesome. After seeing how strong and tricky the dark element could be. Yuki is worried about Aika's fight.

After Yuki saw how a Dark Element user fought, Yuki was curious about what would happen if they ever fought. So to stop her curiosity, Yuki fought with Ike. And the results were more shocking to her, even though she was holding back by only using 50% of her strength.

She was surprised that Ike managed to injure her, it was a long slash on her back. And to this day she still remembers how scary the Dark Element is. As long as there is a shadow, a Dark Element user can control it freely. They can either drag someone using the shadows or go inside it.

A Dark Element user is very powerful as long as there is light, and darkness. As to why light even though it's the opposite, is that a shadow will form on any things, or living beings that a Dark Element User could also manipulate at will. The only problem that they have is that their powers are limited when it's light outside.

"Aika, the only thing you should know about the Dark Element is that it's very powerful. But, you must have good control over it, or you'll get swallowed by it. Just follow my words okay? Darkness shall bend before me." Yuki said to Aika, and seeing Aika nodding at her, she sighed in relief.

"Da- Darkness shall bend before me?" Aika sounded unsure. But, the shadow behind her started to convulse, and suddenly it formed into chains, as that was what Aika was thinking at the moment.

"There you go, you already know how to do it. Control it at will now, it will always follow you." Yuki said to her, and Aika nodded and ordered the chains to immobilize the Dark Clone, but a shocking scene happened.

The Dark Chains only got absorbed by the Clone.

"I knew it. Since this guy's body is made out of pure darkness. It would end up like this." Yuki muttered.

"Mommy, it didn't work." Aika held the flute in her hand, her eyes started to get teary because of it.

"Don't worry, everyone makes mistakes no matter who it is. Even Gods who are said to be perfect make a lot of mistakes. So don't feel bad about it. Try to think of a way to defeat this Darkness." Yuki smiled at her, she was not worried about Aika getting defeated.

Since the Dark Clone is not moving, she has got nothing to worry about.

"Ummm, then. Should I use my Light Element for this?" Aika looked at Yuki with clear eyes.

"Yes, very smart. That's what you need to do but remember. You need to use a strong enough light to burn the darkness." Yuki smiled.

"Strong light?" Aika's mind then began to think about what is the brightest thing that she knows, and when she finally came up with the answer. She held out her hand and closed her eyes.

Aika has been learning quite a lot of things already since they moved into Yuki's house. But, her teacher is Yuki only, as Yuki didn't trust anyone to guide Aika.

"Sunlight?" Aika said in a cute voice, and when Yuki heard it. Her eyes went wide.

"Close your eyes if you don't want to get blind. Or if you think you are strong enough to look directly at the sun just a few meters apart. Then be my guest." Yuki smiled.

Yuki then brought out a different kind of sunglasses. It was darker, like an abyss. It was made out of special glass that absorbed the Dark Element for a few hundred years.

"BRILLIANT! HAHAHA! I'm very very proud that you have thought of that!" Yuki said, she then looked at the floating sun in Aika's palm and smiled.

Because it's almost a real sun, the heat that it was released was quite insane. It even accidentally killed the Earth, Water, and Nature Element in an instant as soon as it was created.
