Failure and Theories

'A tournament?' i thought that idea was very bored.

"Does someone have a question until now?" Eron asked & a few seconds later. I raised my hand.

"What is your question?" he says directly without wasting time adding some words.

"There are only two questions I want to ask, first, is it an option to don't participate in the tournament?. And the second, Where is the tenth original of the 6 generation?".

I asked those questions for two reasons, first was that I didn't want to get attention or be popular & the second, I would like to know something about my father or mother and get some answers from them.

"It seems we have the lazy one of the group. Well, for your first question, only the person I mention would have the option to refuse to participate, like the abilities that don't focus in combat, and

for the second one, I can't give you details of his location because that is a secret state, but I can confirm that most of the originals would assist the tournament, but don't get mad, if you demonstrate good performance maybe, you could meet him".

"Thank you, Sir," I said, and after that, he mentioned to Chaya that she had the option to don't participate in the event.

"Enough chatting, now I will explain the exercise for today," Eron said & some minutes later, he started to explain.

"Some of you already know, but there are differences between us and the Normal 'errors', & this is our training process."

"They can domain the first ability in one year of training and then will be a replace stage they would unlock a new one until they have three, that could be considered a cheating tool.

But the only problem they have it's the lack of power & they can only choose one type of art for each one, while we could domain all the E.M.S art for our ability".

What you will do it's, learn an external and internal Basic cast for the rest of the week. If you want to learn something about the use of your power, you can ask me here.

And then each one goes to his one training area to practice.

When I found a good zone in the room, I tried to thought about that feeling before the first day I arrived at the academy.

So, at the begging was hard, but then I could feel that sensation I forgot in the past, and a type of energy flowed from my mind to my hand when I saw a static orb with blue and golden sparks.

I first tried to touch the orb, but suddenly someone appeared from nowhere and said to me.

"I recommend knowing what you're doing before acting so maybe you would take fewer risks." Eron gave me some advice.

"Yeah, but I couldn't understand how to use it properly without experimenting myself."

"Each one has his progress & yours is one of the most complex abilities to control, so take it easy." then he left to see the others.

After that, I thought about using it well without taking a risk, but nothing arrived in my mind how to use it.

Some ideas go on into my mind, but they were all failures, so I was thinking for more than 1 hour & in that time, I was taking a look more closely at how my ability works & I discover some things.

First, time manipulation was something with so many varieties and complex things, but I found something I could explode of this ability.

And that was the variable effect like, if I want to slow something near to me, I only have to establish two layers, one to cover the surface of my body and the other to cover an area of 2-3 meters.

The one that covers my body is to accelerate the time of my body, the other area slows the time of all material in the area, so the two layers cancel each other & with that, I could walk normally & the subject would be slower than usual.

And that not was the only idea that I thought of in my mind, also I have an idea related with stop the time of an object, but now I think, it's very inaccessible for me that cast for now.

So I tried to reply with the I thought & the process was so difficult for the only reason I had to add a command for each layer and maintain the form.

And a few moments later thinking, I could make a domain of less than 1 meter, and when I walked, the domain moved with me as if I was the center of the storm.

Suddenly a window opened that said:

[you have unlocked the control cast "Peaceful walk"]

[Grade: 1]

[Description: generate a domain with you at the center of that, and all the material that enters the 'domain' will be slower than usual.]

[Uploading your Element...]

[...upload complete]

[-Abilities-]

[Time: Rank (S)

Description: The ability to manipulate the time to your wish, the only problem is the consequences for his use so proceed with caution]

[Basic casts: ...]

[First grade casts: "Peaceful walk"(control)]

[Second grade casts: ...]

[Third grade casts: ...]

I was going to see some more, but then Eron appeared again & when he visualized what I did before, he said.

"Why do most of the lazy ones have to be as genius as well? I never taught you could domain a cast like that in one day and even in only some hours.

You can take the rest of the class for all you want." He said to me & next to that, he went away to help the others.

'If I say to Ronald, he will doubt his existence, if only we don't wear a mask, I would like to see his expression.' Eron thought with an invisible smile covered by the mask.

"so, if I could get so quickly those casts. I'll have to do is think of some more ideas to add to my arsenal for the tournament.

'Maybe that would be my next goal for the year.' I thought & so, I return to practice hoping to discover something else I could use.
