9 Chapter 09- New Powers, New Enemies
(AUTHOR'S NOTE)
Well after thinking through the night I realized that the explosion of emotions was very out of nowhere, I wanted to pass and emotion in the situation but I ended up forcing on a calm character that is not his, so I made one and two small changes since no one he liked the previous outburst of emotions and I admit that I didn't even like it. So if you want to see, the changes have already been made. I hope you like this chapter.
From your future favorite author.

The Dragon Warrior is on his bed completely bandaged and covered in a silk sheet, it looks like someone who really cares has taken care of him.
(Pov- 1st Person: Zagreus)
Zagreus sees the rewards for defeating Tai Lung and soon decides to open the Gacha.
[Ding!!]
[ Open Gacha - X1 Multiversal Ticket(CHEAT), X1 Multiversal Ticket(SKILL), Which one do you want to use? ]
'Use the CHEAT Multiversal Ticket. I want to see what kind of Cheat I get now.'
[Gacha in progress... Please wait]
[Concluded!!!]
[The Protagonist Cheat "Virgil Ovid Hawkins (Static)" was acquired.]
[Metahuman Physiology - Bang Baby]
[RANK: EPIC]
[CHECK: PASSIVE]
[ Description: Makes your Metahuman-like body known as "Static", capable of generating raw electromagnetic energy, and controlling it at will.]
[Merge the CHEAT with you now?]
[(WARNING!) The Host will feel pain upon merging as it will be adapting its body to generate and conduct electromagnetic energy.]
'Yes, I want to merge now, I think it's the most correct way, not the safest but how else am I going to explain this new power? If I merge now I can use the excuse that I gained such power from the [Dragon Scroll].'
[Ding!!]
[Starting the merger in 3...2..1. Beginner now.]
'Ugh, I feel like my body is in an oven.'
My skin was red and sweat was running down my face, after some time the pain stopped and a cold relief came to my body, I don't know how much time passed since it felt like hours and hours.
Some minutes later.
[Full Fusion!]
[Anomaly in the user's body was detected, analyzing, please wait...]
'What? What happened? Did an error occur in the merge process?'I ask the System with real confusion.
[Complete Analysis.]
[Due to the Fusion with [Metahuman-Bang Baby Physiology], something hidden was awakened in his body.]
-----
[Descendant of Jupiter]
[RANK- LEGENDARY]
[CHEAT- PASSIVE]
[Description: Force awakened due to an external power, by having the blood of the God of Sky's and Lightnings in your veins, you can now control the Lightnings and Winds.]
-----
'Am I the child of a planet? This doesn't make any sense, System please explain to me.'
[Jupiter is just the name that represents the Roman Storm God he is not a planet in itself, and the user is not the SON of Jupiter, but a descendant, this means that someone in your family was a son or daughter of Jupiter and you ended up awakening this power now due to Fusion.]
'So does that mean that if I didn't have you, I wouldn't have awakened this power?'
[Not exactly, without my interference you would have about a 0.0025% chance of waking up.]
'Basically I wouldn't make it, so System who is my father? That power of shadows and familiarity I feel with the night, those powers come from him don't they?'
(Passing on to remember that Zagreus doesn't know ANYTHING about mythology, he only knows that there are gods in the plural due to a phrase from his mother, so it would be unnatural for him to know the names and stories about the gods.)

'Son of Hades, Hades is my father, I will have a conversation with my father when I return home, even if he is a God, but he is God of what? God of Night, Shadow, this information is not important to me for now, I want to see how my new powers work before using the other Ticket.'
I focus on activating my electrical powers and on the first attempt I manage to summon black lightning around my body, when I open my eyes I see that everything seems to be slower as I can visualize a fly flapping near the window, but I can't stay like that for a long time and I feel the fatigue reaching my already weakened body.
Even though I can't use it well, I'm still happy to have access to a power with so much potential, and now that I've stopped to think... will I be able to use techniques like Chidori, Raikiri or even Kirin? I'm going to try to max out this technique so that I can become a Master of it, as its limit is simply my control over the Skill.
'System, use Multiversal Skill Ticket!'
[Open Gacha: Gacha in progress... Please wait]

[Creation of Talisman]

-----
'The information comes to my mind as if they were a library, they are here but I still need to study them and learn them to use, this is very interesting indeed.'
And at that moment when I'm lost in my thoughts, I hear my bedroom door dragging and the girl I'm in love with enters it, Tigress with a bucket of water and a wet cloth in her hands is surprised to see me awake.
I can only say a single word to her.
"Yo."
The corners of her thin lips lift and she walks into the room as she closes the door behind her, Tigress walks towards the chair that's on the side of my bed and punches me painfully in the arm.
"Outch, why is this?" I ask feeling a lot of pain from my already injured body after being hit by Tigress's rock-like punch.
"That's just saying a single word after being passed out for 2 days, everyone's worried about you!" She says trying to look annoyed but if the blush on her face weren't enough indication it would be:

My thoughts are interrupted again when the red-haired beauty in front of me places a cool, damp cloth on my forehead.
"Hold the cloth and lie down, you have to get well soon." Says a Tigress with a serious face even more with a slight blush on her face.
"Zagreus, I was wondering if you could…" and at that very moment my mind froze and when my thoughts come back they're running a mile a minute.
'Will she confess? But I wanted to do that, only later, right, after a little flirting and dating, isn't that how it works?.'
"....train with me when you recover? It's just that you beat Tai Lung and with the power of the Scroll you must have learned a lot from it and I would love to fight you and get stronger with you, I could learn from you and point out some flaws and where you could improve and you'll do the same for me, what do you think?" Tigress finishes speaking and looks at my face, I can't help a smirk on my face with a little disappointment at what she said afterwards.
I think I was too nervous about something difficult to happen, she likes to train, she even has a title about training, I will have to take the initiative then.
"But of course you do Tigress, I would love to train with you and maybe after the Vale is remodeled, would you like to have something to eat with me?"
I confirm to her and then immediately invite her, giving her the best seductive smile I can muster while bandaged on my bed.
"Hoho, the new boy is asking me on a date at ?"
She lets out a beautiful laugh on her face to try to hide the rising blush and I just respond directly.
"Yes I would like it to be with me."
Tigress seems to have stopped working when she looks at me with a slightly silly look on her face, and I have to keep myself from laughing at the cuteness she was showing.
"I would also like to go with you Zagreus, it's the least I can do for you."
I can't hold back and smile as hard as I can since she would be the first one I'd go out on a date.

(Pov- 3rd Person)
1 month passed and Dragon Warrior was now fully recovered and had even gone on missions with his team, he had also asked for forgiveness for the way he acted in the fight against Tai Lung, his Master forgave him but punished him for his disrespect with more training.
Zagreus just bowed and thanked his Master with a smile, and after a few days of hard training his Master had called him to a cave with a dragon-shaped stone statue and taught him the importance of Inner Peace, how it affects your life and how it makes a difference in a fight.
Shifu demonstrated the use of Inner Peace when a drop of water fell from a stalactite and took it in the palm of his hand and diverted the drop of water to the leaf of a small plant where it finally fell to the ground.
Zagreus impressed I try to meditate to gain access to this ability and to use his new power and training with it, he had already given some advances in controlling this power, he could use it to increase his thought speed as well as his movement speed, he could now cast black lightning balls and summon rains with great effort, he could also use the winds to run faster and to jump higher, little by little Zagreus was becoming proficient in his powers.
He had also discovered that his Electromagnetism powers could manipulate iron items, he could even fly in a sword like the immortals of legend.
Zagreus also got the early stage of using Chidori and Raikiri but nowhere near being able to use Kirin.
He also used the knowledge of the Skill [Creating Talisman] to create some basic talismans, but he had to put some in the ink he would be using while making the talisman, so through his knowledge he used the only energy available to him at the time, which was Chi.
And that due to several attempts to pour Chi on ink, he had acquired the Skill [Chi Manipulation].
[Chi manipulation] [Level 1]
[RANK- RARE]
[SKILL-ACTIVE]
[Description: The art of controlling the vital energy known as Chi, limited only to imagination and control, the higher the level, the greater the control.]
That he barely knew how to use due to lack of techniques and knowledge of how to use it.
But these days the Dragon Warrior had a smile on his face as he meditated, for in addition to his control over his new powers being increasing, what really made him happy was his relationship with Tigress that had evolved.
This past month the two were in various training sessions and meetings around the Valley of Peace, between battles where one took care of each other's backs, the trust between the two was growing.
They hadn't kissed yet on account of Tigress who hadn't accepted her feelings yet, but Zagreus had planned to confess to her tonight, at Po's restaurant.
As if Fate itself were toying with him, the girl he was thinking about at the moment calls him.
"Zagreus, bandits! Near the Village of Musicians."
Zagreus with a smile on his face rises from his meditation position and looks at Tigress as he speaks.
"Finally, Action, come on, whoever defeats the least bad guys pays for today's encounter."
The Dragon Warrior says as he winks at Tigress.
She looks at him with an amused smile and replies.
"If you think you can beat me this time, then let's go."
Zagreus just chuckles at the flirtation between them and starts running alongside Tigress.
