"Now, onto the second step of your training..." Yagami says with a smile. Yose then asks, "What's the next step? Why are we back inside the talisman room I woke up weeks ago?" "Don't get too excited I'll explain." "The second step is to start controlling your own life force energy in general," Yagami begins, "Up until now, you've only been able to control the life force energy that Asura lent to you. Now, I want you to be in control of your own energy. It shouldn't take you long to learn since you already have the basic understanding, but it's crucial that you master this skill." He continues, "Right now, the majority of your life force energy is still dominated by Asura's life-force energy. We're here now to help you start taking control of that and build up your own life-force energy, so that you can finally learn to channel and manipulate it like you did with Asura's" Yose nods calmly, absorbing the information. His expression is serious yet somewhat confident, but it's clear that he still has some doubts. "Now, the first thing you need to know is that controlling your own life force energy is a much more delicate and nuanced process than controlling the life force energy Asura lent you. Even if you can do it efficiently now, it was essentially just like playing the piano with a sheet of music, without any kind of practice or personal input". "Now, this is the part where you being a vessel really makes things tricky," Yagami continues, "Your body, mind, and spirit are all directly connected to Asura's life force energy, which has a tendency to take control and suppress your own life force energy." "So, to get around that, you'll have to work to actively suppress Asura's life force energy to make way for your own. This is why I brought you to talisman room, because it's specially designed to keep your connection to Asura as suppressed as possible." "You'll be spending a lot of time training here", Yagami continues, "I know that it's been difficult for you in the past to concentrate and focus properly, you're going to build up the necessary mindset and understanding to master your life force energy." Yose answers, "I understand the process, Teacher Yagami." He then goes and sits down in the middle of the room, beginning to concentrate." "Good thinking, Yose. Meditating is the best way to do this. Keep on meditating until you cannot anymore." He smirks and then adds, "I have business to handle, I'll leave you to it, Yose." he says and then walks out the room as Yose closes his eyes and begins to meditate."How are you guys holding up?" Enfoure asks. Cali responds with a monotone voice, "Eh, I guess not too bad." Zelah then speaks, "I can't say I have been feeling well after Yose..." "About that." Enfoure continues, "I've been staying quiet about this but um, he said that he wants each one of us to take care of ourselves." Cali responds, "What does it fuckin' matter if he is dead? Doesn't that defeat the entire purpose?" Enfoure then says, "I thought you would be sad, not mad." "Well, I'm not exactly thrilled about the situation either," Zelah mutters, "But he did tell us to take care of ourselves before he died, so I guess it's important to him." Cali sighs and shrugs, "I guess we should make an effort to follow his wishes then." Despite Cali and Zelah acting like they are handling Yose's death well, in reality they are trying their best to not cry.

"You look uglier than ever, Enfoure." a man speaks with a slight feminine voice while approaching with a cocky smile. Enfoure's expression darkens as the man approaches, his cocky smile seeming to taunt him even more. "And you haven't changed a bit, have you...Sora?" Enfoure replies, his tone biting and sarcastic. "Sora" is a second-year student. He has short, wavy purple hair and purple eyes. He is a thin, feminine-looking boy with a bow on his head. He wears circular glasses on his face. He is dressed in a black-and-white uniform with a skirt. He appears to be carrying a scythe-shaped weapon on his back. It has fabric wrapped around it. Most likely, it's to prevent injury to others when being moved. "Didn't know it was that time of the year for starting harvesting." Enfoure mocks the scythe. Sora laughs lightly, not seeming to mind Enfoure's taunts at all. "And I see that you've still got that old sense of humor as well." He smirks, reaching back to flick the bow on his head playfully. After that, another man and a woman approached the scene.

 "Quit bein' so loud, you two. It's gettin' on my nerves." she states with a dominant deep womanly voice. The second man and woman both appear rather stern and serious, seemingly quite annoyed by the exchange between Sora and Enfoure. "Yeah, you guys need to just calm down already," the man says with his nonchalant demeanor and his dominant voice, his tone stern and his expression even more so. The man is clearly taller than both Sora and Enfoure, and stands out with his muscular build and confident demeanor. He has dark brown hair and serious, piercing brown eyes. The woman stands shorter than all three of the others, but what she lacks in height, she more than makes up for in sheer presence. Her sharp, narrow features, intense gaze, and firm, no-nonsense disposition instantly command attention. She has straight, silver-haired, tied up in a tight bun. Her expression is stern and commanding, with thin lips and silver eyes. They are wearing their school uniforms except for Sora. "Who are these people anyway?" Cali asks to Enfoure. He then sighs and begins to introduce them. "The womanly looking man with the scythe's name is, Sora Seiko. The other man with the brown eyes is called, Okabe Yuichi. And finally the woman with silver hair is called, Akira Rei. They are our upper-class, they are second-year students. There is one more student that is male but I heard he got sent to a mission a few months back and still hasn't returned. His name is Arima Kei. Our Entera High only has 4 members for second-year students.

Zelah gets up from where she was seated and goes to shake their hands. Zelah walks up to Sora first, reaching to shake his hand. Sora smiles and nods politely, seemingly unbothered by the handshake. Okabe and Akira follow soon after, shaking hands with Zelah as well. Rei's expression is still somewhat stern and distant, but her handshake is firm and steady. Zelah introduces herself after and goes back to where she was seated. After her, Cali gets up next and goes to shake Akira's hand, who also appears rather serious and stoic. However, when Cali reaches out to shake her hand, she feels Akira's grip linger just for a moment longer than it should be, almost as if she was taking time to study Cali's features closely. "You are the strongest in your class, I can tell." Akira states. "You think so?" Cali asks and then Akira continues, "Even eyes may lie but life-force energy never lies." She then lets go of Cali's hand with a smile. Okabe begins to speak afterwards, "Teacher Yagami has some business to handle so he asked us to come get you guys in the shape." Sora adds, "We are aware that your friend has died not too long ago. However, you guys have to get stronger if you don't want the same happening to yourselves or the people you care for. That is why Teacher Yagami sent us to you guys." Akira starts to speak after Sora. "You kids better prepare yourselves for this. We are not easy going like Yagami."

Yose begins meditating to unlock his own life-force energy. Second-years will teach First-Years?
