Frenzy Of The East River

'Water is what we are, ignite it for wrath shall follow.'

'The human body contains 60% water, whether that person is a magic user or a normal human being, however, for those who train using the water element that number goes well over 75%.'

'To use this skill, one must ignite the water present inside the body and replace that water using your Crystal. The water from the Crystal must be sent to the cells as soon as they are ignited. Keep in mind that this is a very dangerous task as mistakes can lead to death.'

'Two-thirds of the water in our body is present inside cells. They are the basic building blocks of all living things. The rest is found in between our cells and in the blood.'

'The first step is to gain control over these cells then ignite the water inside these cells. This would briefly increase the power of the user, however, keep in mind once the skills, wears out the body will experience extreme exhaustion especially at the start.'

'To gain control over the cells, first reach a state of pure calmness, then search inside the body and you will find what you seek.

Use the 'Enchantment to aid you.'

This was a good skill, however, the last part was a drawback. It would be useful in a situation where his opponent was stronger than him and he needed to get away or if he wanted to finish his opponent quickly. If he could properly master the clone, then he can use it as a distraction while he used this skill to finish the opponent.

Leo closed his eyes as his feet pushed against the warm rocks. All the sounds that surrounded Leo faded as his mind felt calmness. The beat of his heart slowed down, he felt his lungs, increasing and decreasing in size as oxygen entered and left. Soon he could hear countless little beats. They came from all over his body. Leo knew exactly what these were.

As soon as Leo found these beats the scroll rose and opened as the writing started disappearing. It got replaced by the image of an ocean during a storm. The black outline made by the symbols showed huge waves in the ocean as it remained in an uncontrollable state.

The symbols shot out of the scroll and surrounded Leo. They revolved around Leo. After thirty seconds they moved inside his body, however, not all went to is Crystal as some got absorbed by his entire body.

Leo felt like he got taken from the river bank and was now in a furnace. He felt a sudden surge of power inside him, however, he could also tell that not all his cells ignited. Only 20% of all the cells had ignited. Without using the spell, Leo was 5% in Normal Rank Level 1 but with the spell active the 5% increased to 25%.

This meant that if he were to gain control over all his cells, he could raise his power by an entire Level but he did not understand how hard it would be to gain control over all his cells.

It was like someone placed a boulder on his head that was the pressure Leo's mind felt. He could only imagine how it would be if he were to use both the spells at the same time. Leo had a sudden urge to find out, so he summoned his clone.

Leo's mind now had two boulders placed on it. He quickly collapsed the clone to reduce the pressure. His next step was to train while in the frenzy state as this would help him get more familiar with it.

Leo trained for an hour. When the hour finished, he had a better control over the frenzy state. He also found out he could remain in frenzy state for 40 seconds and after that, his body was like it had reached old age.

Leo took rest for some time near the river and then took off back to the village.

After having fried rice and curry Leo left the shop, however, he got approached by the one-armed man on his way back to his house.

"Sir Gerard summons you," Said the one-armed man before Leo could say anything the man walked away from him so Leo followed the man to meet Gerard.

Gerard sat exactly opposite to the door. There was a long table with many chairs on its sides at one end was where Gerard sat in a chair much bigger than the others. Leo also saw Mia who was standing at the near Gerard but this time she was holding the hand of a small boy which Leo guessed was her small brother. Her brother had the same color hair as her even Gerard had the same.

There were two others present in the room a boy and a girl who looked similar in age to Leo.

The girl had a slim build with a tanned skin and thin lips. Her light brown hair fell down her back. When they made eye contact, she smiled in response.

The guy had a muscular build for his age. His blonde hair looked messy he also had a sword on his back. The guy nodded as he saw Leo.

It was Gerard who spoke first among all of them "I still have not heard your name."

"Leo," Said Leo as he shifted his gaze from the boy and the girl towards Gerard.

"I see, This is Emilia and Xander," Gerard said as he pointed at the two "They are both at Normal Rank Level 1 just like you. The three of you along with Mia will head off to kill two Normal Rank Level 2 beats. Mia will be the leader since she is at Normal Rank Level 3. That village has a good relationship with ours as half of our food supplies come from their farms so I want nothing to interfere with that."

"Kill the two beasts and then collect your reward from the village elder." Said Gerard "That is all you may leave."

It was when Leo, Emilia, and Xander reached the door Mia spoke "Meet me near the gate three days from now at early morning and make sure to not be late else I will leave you behind,"

Leo suddenly thought of something, but waited until Emilia and Xander left "The Hunters Faction I need information about them"

Gerard sighed, hearing this "I was planning on giving you the details, but due to certain complications I cannot at the moment the only way now is for you to gain the trust of those who don't trust you and by that I mean you need to go on more mission,"

Leo thought it was the work of those four who came with him to the town. After asking he left the place and decided to use the next three days to train his skills even further.
