Chapter seventeen
"you feel the pain isn't it, let it born within you. It could be useful as a driving force" the void entity said standing right in front of Cale who was already approaching him.
Cale was still in the volcanic planet as he couldn't just leave as he was already burning in rage.
The strong wind storm carried a lot of dust particles as it blew constantly which made it difficult for Cale to see through. But he wanted to be sure the person speaking was who he thinks it was.
"Who are you?" Cale scream towards the direction of where he heard the voice.
"You should know by now the that you were abandoned here to die and be forgotten, this mission was nothing but a death sentence. I am the void, the major element pf pain, darkness and the very beginning of the universe. Once you understand pain, you will understand the through meaning of life itself. But still, lord Orion you own supreme leader of the izigan race stole the very joy that meaned alot to me. Now I dwell in pain that I call joy myself." the void said with a projected voice as the storm continued to swallow up the sound.
"Stop hiding and come out of the storm, you must be the void which have been giving us so much trouble, what exactly do you want. Once we thought you were a cosmic entity who just seeked an unusual power. But it seems you have a story behind the reason why you do this. What is your relationship with lord Orion, what did he takeaway from you. Lord Orion is a good leader, mistake can always be corrected and things can be rearranged once more. You seemed to have had a life that was taken from you. Nobody have to die any longer." Cale said as his growing rage slowly began to subside, he was more concerned on the reason why the void was on this path to destruction.
The void then began to shine out in a sharp purple radiant light which Cale himself felt over a distance. Cale decided to move more closer to him, as the covered himself with a dark protective fog like smoke which surrounded his entire body protecting him from the storm and the heat the void emitted.
Cale was stunned seeing it was Tim who was standing in front of him, his friend and Master. But his body is already in possession of the void. At this point, Cale began to grow in rage after what he saw. He knew how powerful Tim was and he could imagine how he must have fought against the void. At this point he knew there was no turning back, he had to face off the the powerful void here and now.
"If you bury you self in pain, it will take a while for you to realize the damage you have you have done to yourself, but understanding it can be made to be a tool as the weapon of rage and Mastery. The fragments of reality holds it's own mystery. You rage could be helpful, but nothing will stop my goal. The annihilation of the entire izigan race and the rebuilt humanity of peace." The void said as the storm slowly began to fade away. They could now see themselves clearly and the Cale who just entered his rage point looking directly to him.
"You are in no positive to lecture me about your silly pain or of reality whatsoever, you will pay for what you have done. Suddenly his eyes was surrounded with a vein like black lines and also his hands were covered a vein like white light. Cale is also a powerful umbra izigan who trained under Tim. He was the only who who knew Tim's secret techniques and the special ones he created too.
Cale ran towards the void who just stood there waiting for him arrival. The void smiled delightfully seeing so much powers emanating from Cale. It was a was going to be a fight Cale wasn't sure he would win but he was ready to give all he had.
In the heart region of the umbra izigan. Ace and Eric were In an empty room during his training section different from the others, just as Ace promised.
"Why not forbidden techniques, I have to do what it takes to get stronger and why do you call it forbidden techniques why some senior umbra izigans still perform the techniques." Eric asked as he sat on the flour of the room while Ace was standing.
"They are not called forbidden techniques because there was a rule that says we shouldn't perform the techniques or if the techniques were banned.
Actually it's because if an umbra izigan uses the technique it will always take something from them. Either with their lives or they would suffer from a thread disorder.
The point is that the user of such techniques either dies or never remains the same." Ace said.
The words for sure didn't scare Eric as he was determined to learn the forbidden techniques no matter what, Eric for sure didn't understand his own powers and his sudden ability to control his powers without been thought made some of the senior izigans asked questions.
"I will love to learn all the forbidden techniques, if that's will make me stronger." Eric said.
"Eric I cannot teach you the forbidden techniques, it's for you own good. They are some secret techniques I can teach you but the question is if you will be able to perform the techniques at your Young age. This technique was created by Cale Ruger himself. Since then no one who have been able to perform the technique. He called it the rotating flying rods." Said Ace.
"The rotating flying rods?. Isn't that supposed to be like a normal flying rods." Eric said.
"When let me explain how the umbra izigans create either the secret or the forbidden techniques. The umbra izigans have what is called the act of balance. Yin and yang. Both the positive and the negative form of energy. This is our source energy.
When we use our powers we maintain the balance of both the positive and he negative energy from flowing into each other. ☯️.
This balance is very essential. Both the act of the secret techniques and the forbidden techniques defies the law of this balance. The user either allows the positive energy to flow into the negative energy or the negative energy flowing into the positive energy.
This is very dangerous and only small potion of the part they allow to occupy will be left, if the entire part is occupied the user of that technique will die. Breaking the law of the balance between the two energy comes with serious consequences. This is what makes the umbra izigans so unique." Ace said after a brief explanation.
Eric was stunned as the powers of the umbra izigans was a profound, unique and carries strict form of usage. The umbra izigans has the ability to conquer any cosmic elements or forces. And also produces critical attacks on its victim.
"So what about the flying rods technique thing. It's not a forbidden techniques it's a secret technique so meaning te effects are not alarming or effective right?" Eric asked
Ace knew he wanted to make Eric as powerful as he wants to be, but he knew Eric would be the type that will push further than his own limits. He would do all it takes to learn what should make him powerful and he is also risking his position as one of the umbra senior ranks to teach Eric. If Eren gets to knows that he teaches Eric these techniques, he was be stripped off his position.
Ace picked up a small remote that projected a holographic display on how the the technique is been performed. Cale Ruger was shown in the holo display as he runs and then jumps twisting horizontally in the air after some time he sent black rods flying after extended his hands while still twisting horizontally. The rods will produce a gravity cage where the victim will not be able to move and the the other rods will bring the explosion, in the technique the maximum rods are three all with their effects.
"This form of technique is a simple one,before he started running, he pushed his negative energy to the front of his stomach and leaving his position energy behind it. Then while he was running the negative energy was pushed into the positive energy to give he a powerful boost and the rods he created, the spinning horizontally made the negative energy revolve around the positive to exchange energies between each other, which was then passed on to the rods to create the deadly effect." Ace explained.
"No wonder you said is easy, it's doable tho.
I think I can pull it off." Eric said as he prepared to run.
"Wait it's not that simple, you have to first learn the act of balance first." Ace shouted as he could already see Eric running to perform the technique.
Eric ran with an Instant speed, he controlled his negative energy within him to the front of his stomach and leaving the positive behind. Eric flet the power raising and why Cale needed to do the rotation to amplifier the attack.
Cale twisted in the air as he was already performing the rotation. Ace was stunned as he felt he was looking at Cale Ruger the day he used the same technique on him at the izigan tournament many years ago.
Eric extended his two hands and he threw a rod and it pinned the ground suddenly there was a sudden gravitational push which expelled from the rod. He could only do one as he has not yet mastered the technique.
Ace blocked the impact of the rod's gravitational force with a black shield he created.
"That's impossible, he was even able to throw at least one rod. He is indeed talented, there have be something behind his obvious ability to do something like that. The dark mission, there is something behind it.
Eric fell to the ground unconscious while Ace went to catch him before he hit the ground.
"He is no ordinary izigan, what's up with this kid anyways." Ace said to himself. He was covered with curiousness as he himself has a mystery and an uncovered truth about the strange events he have witnessed over the years.
