Sight

[The Eight Consciousness of Truth starts with the First Consciousness of Domain. In order to create this Domain you need to completely abandon sight and focus on sound, smells, and feeling. I cannot help you, you must figure it out your self.]

So in order to regain my sight I have to abandon it. 'Eve how do I abandon my sight. [Soul Force is not only used to form Mana. Soul Force is also your sense.] Is that it... Great. Eve is pointless so I need to figure it out. What should I do... What should I do...

"Millicas are you bored?" Well at least Sona cares. "No. I'm about to start mediating." She's hesitating? "Is it about the Nine Tails?" Oh Rias, telling family secret to outsiders, we will talk later. "Rias should have never told you about that."

I begin to tap the desk in front of me, there's no real rhythm. "You can trust me like you trust Rias. Soon I will be your wife." Just because I will be marrying her doesn't mean that I need to trust her. "That means nothing." I close my eyes and she seems to get the hint.

"Why do you trust Rias." Apparently she didn't get the hint. What is wrong with people. "Because I know what Rias wants. She wants power and prestige. She will be the first women to rule over a Demon House."

"She needs me to be her weapon and guardian if she is to succeed. That is why I trust Rias. She will be anything I want, in return for being anything she needs. Love can come later if ever. Now leave me alone." This hint wasn't as subtle and she's smart. Hopefully.

First I will focus on feeling, and that what I do. First I will focus internally. I focus on how the silky energy flowed through my veins from my heart. I focused until I could see my own bones, blood, and organs.

Then I focused on my skin, feeling the air. Trying to feel even it's smallest movements. By now I couldn't hear, smell, or 'see' anything at all. All I could do is feel. Eventually, I began to feel the minute changes in the air flow.

Next was smell, my nose was bombarded with thousand of smells at once. It took forever to properly sort out the different smells and where I remember them from. I could physically feel my brain processing everything through the intense migraine coming on. But I didn't stop.

Lastly, was sound. All I could hear was my own heartbeat. I kinda lost myself in the rhythm. It was like I fell into a trance. [First Consciousness of Domain is complete.] What?... I felt the weirdest sensation ever.

There was a bubble around me, about a yard extending from my body. I thought that with a Domain I would be able to 'see' everything within it. But no... The Domain was more of a spacial awareness. I could sense any object near me but couldn't actual see it.

Imagine waking up in the middle of the night an needing to go to the bathroom that is across the house. You know where everything is but can't see it. So as you walk you can feel when your getting near an object. That is all I feel. Great.

[As you progress, you will eventually be capable of seeing through your sense of Truth] 'Will this be like how I originally saw thing?' [No. Through your Domain your mind will process everything then 'project' all that information into your eyes, like you are seeing.]

'How far do I need to go before I can see something?' [The Second Consciousness of Soul will allow you to see.] 'I could already see Soul.' [You could see Soul Force.] 'How far till I reach that stage?' [You have formed the Domain you haven't master it.] That shouldn't hard.

"Rias. You lose again." When did Rias get here? "Is it time for me to go with Rias?" I stood and stretched. "No. You have been mediating all day." All day it a long time. Well not that I had anything better to do. "What are you playing."

I pick up my walking stick and walk toward their voices. As useless as I first thought this Domain was, I've found helpful since I haven't tripped over of the other desks in the room. "Chess."

"How many people are there in this room?"

I could hear their breathing I just couldn't separate individuals. "Nine people in total." I tried to separate them and only got five. "Can you announce them?" Everyone seemed to stand up and begin moving. They separated into two groups, one on the left and one on the right.

"For my peerage there is Akeno Himejima, Yuuto Kiba, Koneko Toujou. I also have one more but you will meet him later." Rias went first. "For my peerage you have Tsubaki Shinra, Tsubasa Yura, Tomoe Meguri, Momo Hanakai, and finally Reya Kusaka."

"By peerage you mean Evil Piece Holder's?" After the quick introduction, they each said hi before going back to doing whatever they were doing before. "Yes." Sona was first to respond. "So, if the day ended why is everyone here?"

"The day hasn't ended, class has." This was a different voice. "Akeno right?" She shrieked annoyingly, I couldn't help but jump. "You remember." Is she special? "You were just introduced." All she did was laugh, "enough Akeno." Thank you Rias.

'Eve, how do I form the Second Consciousness of Soul?' [Everything has a Soul. It is what allows something to exist in reality. Focus on how those in your domain exist and try to find their soul in the edges of their form.]

"Are you ready to leave for the Occult Research Club?" Rias and her stupid club, it was all she ever really talked about when she visited me. Of course there was Human World information throw in. "No."

Sitting back down in the middle of the room, I am in the perfect position to feel the desks and people around me. I focus on the objects as try to feel their outlines, I focus harder than I've ever focused before.

It was small, but I began to see the outlines. Only to be interrupted, "President, I have Issei Hyoudou. He was caught peeking again." Well this is not a bad interruption, I could feel him before he even came into my Domain.

As I stood up, I planned to plunder him. So I pretend to fall and the idiot catches me. The world seemed to stop. My blood boiled, all my sense focused only on him. And I saw his Soul outline, it is silver. It didn't matter, all I wanted to do is KILL HIM!

The dragon in him must have reacted to the dragon in me because he didn't speak. He just stared at me... Frozen in fear. I could smell his fear on him... "I will write you up Mr. Hyoudou!" Sona manage to separate us and I felt Rias grab me and pull me back.

Both peerage entered my Domain, their Soul Outline was a purple mixed with silver. Only Rias and Sona had straight purple for their outlines. Sona brought Issei outside and the rest of them decided to be some barrier between the door and myself. Rias never let me go.

It took me a minute to calm down. 'What did you say Eve?' [The Second Consciousness of Soul is complete. Any further progress should be suspended. It is recommended to stabilize, strengthen, and increase the size of your Domain before continuing.]

"I would advice you Rias to let me go." Sona had come back, but I still could feel Issei. "I don't think that is best." The instincts of Dragons are strong. And my instincts say to kill Issei, but I also know Sona was right to think it was best for me to stay here.

"I was given FREEDOM to do whatever I wanted. So let me go." No one moved and Rias held me tighter. "We can't let you kill him within my territory. Our territory." I don't know what's worse not having the strength to free myself or being so easily read.

"I won't kill him." Rias turns me around so we are face to face. "Do I have your word." Her hands hold my my face towards her own. "I, Millicas Gremory, swear not to kill him." She slowly lets me go. I didn't bother to pick up my spear/cane as I walked out the room. For some reason, I could feel him, his direction. So I do what anyone would do. I give into the hunt. Oh this will be fun!
