A blessing or a curse?

Suryalok is a beautiful world filled with wonders, treasure, culture, magic and power.

Different ways to cultivate the powers within our bodies.

People here with the help of those wanted to rule the world, and were valued too.

Everyone wanted to rise as a sun in this world, The powerful ones wanted to rule over the weaklings, and they did what they wanted.

There were many good and bad ones in this world, with rare powers, rare skills, techniques, arts and magic.

Filled with many different empires, on the south side of Suryalok, was a well-known empire, the Vajra empire.

And in a small city of this empire known as Kashvyagiri, resided a small Skambha clan.

It was the most powerful clan in the Kashvyagiri city.

In this clan lived a boy named Rudra, who was the grandson of the clan's leader Vihaan.

Since Rudra was born there were no whereabouts of his whole family, except for his grandfather, and three sisters.

Near the mansion of the Skambha clan, there was a huge field owned by the clan.

In the middle of that field was a huge black crystal that looked like it had grown up from the ground.

Everyone today had gathered there to find their energy talent.

The human body is made up of five main elements, known as Pancha-tattva, it is said that all the other elements no matter which one they are, all are originated and composed of these five elements.

A body can only come into existence when it is made up of these five elements.

These five elements originated and represent cosmic energy.

Every single energy in the universe has originated from the cosmic energy.

Due to this everything in this world has cosmic energy.

With the help of cosmic energy, anyone can get powers beyond limits and perform miracles no one can think of.

This cosmic energy resides within everyone as life force.

Different types of energy come from cosmic energy and take a special form inside a living being's body.

These different energy forms grant specific powers to their owners, which can be used by people for their benefit.

Such energies or energy forms are called energy talent.

These energy talents can be of different types such as sword energy talent, which means the owner will have special sword energy and will be able to use it with a sword as their power.

Bow energy talent is the same as sword energy talent but here instead of a sword, there is a bow.

Those who possess this talent will be able to use their talent with bows and launch out insane projectile attacks.

Just like this, there are many more different types of energy talent with different weapons and many other things.

But there is an exception.

Very few people have elements as their energy talent.

That element can be anything in this universe since all the elements originated from Pancha-tattva which originated from cosmic energy.

This is why this ceremony was called the energy talent ceremony, to find out those who have the ability to control a specific element at their will.

But it looked like everyone was tensed out because of something.

"Where is Princess Mayra, why can't I see her today?", a man said.

it seemed like the main princess of the clan was missing.

"Hey! Do you know where elder sister Mayra could have gone?", a man asks his friend standing next to him.

"She would've gone to find that loser, Rudra! After all, she is his elder sister and her sisterly love is always too much.", the other man says.

But where was Rudra?

In the mountains near the Skambha clan's mansion, among the trees, there was a huge tree, lying on which was a 16-year-old boy.

"There is no use of this, as I had learnt, to awaken one's energy talent, they can either use spiritual stone or use their kundalini and breakthrough their first chakra, after doing this one's body and spiritual energy become enough powerful, due to which the energy talent within the person awakens, I have been using the saint way since 9 years, but last year God knows what happened, that my body has weakened so much, even the physicians have confirmed that I am only a guest of a few years, my energy channels are slowly shrinking, it's becoming more hard day by day to flow my kundalini through them.

This all is happening because of that thing, that I found a year ago."

Whenever he remembered that incident that took place one year ago, he thought he lost his energy talent, and his health was diminishing.

Kundalini is the Life force of the human body.

Life force is formed of two main energies, body energy and spiritual energy.

Energy talent and kundalini are two different things.

Whereas kundalini is formed of pancha-tattva, and using mantras we can use our kundalini to perform different attacks.

Whereas using energy talent can only grant us certain powers.

As kundalini had the power of Pancha-tattva, it can also be considered the most powerful energy, after cosmic energy.

Whereas some use the saint way that is to cultivate their kundalini.

Some only cultivate their body energy, leaving apart their spiritual energy.

And some only cultivate their spiritual energy, leaving apart their body energy.

Some people only use energy talent and specific paths for them to cultivate.

To control our energy talent we need a special type of power called flarenege.

The reason behind this is that talent energies manifest in the form of talent symbols within our bodies.

The term "flarenege" refers to the flare energy let out by those talent symbols, although they don't harm one's body.

There are two types of energy talent, ability energy talent, and element energy talent.

Kundalini is formed of Pancha-tattva making it much more powerful than any other energy, that is why those who use the saint way to cultivate are always considered at an upper stage than normal cultivators.

Also, saint cultivators can perform magic, alchemy, and energy talents.

But most of the people use body energy in this world to cultivate.

This is the usual cultivation way, that most people use.

They do this because cultivating and increasing both body and spiritual energy together, that is kundalini is not so simple.

As greater things come after waiting.

But people don't understand that nowadays.

It's a very hard way, in this way, one has to endure so much pain and do struggles no one can think of.

Saint way is also a little beneficial for those who have elements as their energy talents.

For some reason, Rudra had chosen the saint way.

Kundalini is known as the cosmic energy residing within every living being, one has to increase and make it follow the Main energy channel along the whole spine so that kundalini can pass through chakra points and activate them granting more powers to the individual.

All those chakras are spread up to down along the spine of the human body.

And everyone has kundalini also known as life force, if anyone didn't, they can't be alive.

Rudra did too, but for some reason his kundalini was weakening, resulting in poor health.

Due to all these Rudra began to be considered weak.

But still, there was another way, everybody in Suryalok used techniques to cast their energy out in the form of attacks.

But there are many other ways of cultivation, one of them is magic, in which one only uses their spiritual energy to cultivate and perform different attacks.

Everyone can do magic, as every living being in this world has spiritual energy.

But as the stages of magic increase, more and more spiritual energy is needed.

However, it still resides upon one's fate and hard work that how powerful they will be.

This was when Rudra heard a girl screaming out for help.

"Aah! Please someone help, save me."

Rudra hearing those screams jumped off the tree and ran towards its direction.

After running for a while he saw a girl near his age being robbed by three boys.

"hey you, you are quite beautiful wanna come with me?", the first boy who was as thin as a stick asked with lust in his eyes.

"shut up you b*stard! We are just here to rob her.", said the boy who looked quite well and very fit, "and you girl take out all the money you have with you!"

"or we will hit you!", said the third fatty boy.

"No I don't have anything on me!", the girl cried.

"Hey, you kindly let her go!", A voice fell in their ears.

All of them looked in its direction and found a boy standing there.

But after staring at that boy's face for a while the fit-looking boy seemed to recognise him.

"heh, aren't you that loser Rudra from that Skambha clan?" that boy laughed at Rudra.

Rudra was shocked for a while but then took out a sword from his sheath hanging on his back.

"oho! So you want to fight huh?", the fit-looking boy said and took out a sword.

Holding it in his hands there was a sudden burst of aura, and a faint and hardly visible blue light covered the edge of his sword.

Of course, it was that fit boy's sword energy talent that was being empowered by his flarenege, and that boy was able to control it properly because of his body energy.

Also if that boy's body energy is more than Rudra's which is very low, even a tiny bit more, then the boy's attacks could be more powerful than Rudra's.

Now Rudra started to sweat, after seeing this.

But still, he stood there, for his self-respect, otherwise after this, he would become a joke in the whole city.

Although, everyone already made a joke of him.

That boy rushed towards Rudra, same here Rudra also dashed towards that boy.

But when their swords clash together, a very small and weak wave is generated with the impact of the collision.

Rudra was thrown back and hit a tree falling to the ground, he glanced at his sword to find that a crack had appeared on it.

He spits out a mouthful of blood due to the effect of the impact.

The thin and fatty boy was laughing at Rudra, whereas the well-looking boy, rushed towards Rudra in confidence.

This was when a fist came and hit that boy's face.

It was the fist of a beautiful, elegant girl with a thin waist and slender legs, milk-white colour, and skin as soft as butter.

Wearing blue and white coloured clothes.

"Are you fine little brother?", yes she was none other than Rudra's elder sister Mayra.

"Yeah, I-I am fine.", Rudra was in a state of shock as he had thought he was about to die.

Mayra spots the blood flowing from Rudra's mouth, "You dare hurt my lil brother!".

Mayra screams as she rushes towards that fit-looking boy who is already on the ground, and delivers a few more blows upon him.

"Wow, such a beauty, brother I want her!", that thin-as-stick guy said.

Rudra was able to hear this and as he did, he tried to get up to Hit that guy but wasn't able to do so.

But as these words fell in Mayra's ears, she looked towards the rest of the two boys, fatty and a thin one.

She disappeared and appeared right in front of those two boys as a shadow, and in the next moment, both of them were kissing the ground as Mayra had hit them in the face.

Mayra looked towards that girl, with inspecting eyes.

Under Mayra's gaze a chill rand down her spine.

"Thank you elder sister, and brother Rudra for saving me, I owe a lot to you.", said the girl hurriedly and ran out of there as fast as she could.

Mayra goes back to Rudra, supporting him to get up, she slightly slaps his head.

"fool! Don't you remember that today is the energy talent ceremony? Even if you don't have any element to control the magic, and combat talent, still you can increase your kundalini.", she drags him towards the huge field near the Skambha mansion.

As Rudra was thinking about the ceremony it was making him remember the incident one year ago.

Remembering the incident and that thing all he was thinking was, 'Was that thing a blessing or a curse?'
