CH48 (109), Training

Today was the day I was going to focus on my own training. Since I had started my exploration trip towards the coast I had neglected my aura and psychic training, but now that I had reached the goal I had decided to set Dialday aside for my personal training.

Well, at least it was supposed to be me purely focusing on that, but since I did not manage to complete my survey yesterday I still had a leftover area that needed to be checked. This was the reason I left an hour earlier than usual so that it did not cut into my official training time.

I had just now finished checking the last part of the beach. Unfortunately, nothing noteworthy came up, but I got to see a Remoraid and a Goldeen so at least that was interesting.

This was not the first time I saw a Remoraid, and the last time I had not thought much about it, but I don't know if it was because it was so early in the morning or not, I suddenly started wondering why a fish (Remoraid) would evolved into an octopus (Octillery).

Anyway, sudden Pokemon biology question aside. Now, that I was done with the beach it was time to start my training. I had decided to divide the day into two parts. During the first half, I was going to focus on my aura and during the second half, I was going to focus on my psychic training.

I called out Xatu and had him Teleport me on top of the cliff since the beach was not a good place for what I planned to do next. I thanked him and told him he should do his Miracle Eye training first, after which he could do what he wanted for a while.

I informed him that I would call him later on since I was going to need his help. The others were staying inside my space. Today they would have to do their training and relaxing in there, but I would call them out for lunch

Since it had been some time that I last tested them I was planning to go over my physical and aura prowess first, before starting my aura training. So, the very first thing I did was check out my status.

Everything was as I expected it to be, yet I had to admit it was great to see everything on "paper"; especially the mastery section. I was proud that I had managed to raise them all to such high degrees in such a short time, at least compared to the norm.

Now that I had looked over my status screen it was time to go over my physical prowess. First of all my physique, according to my latest measuring, I was 145 cm tall, which put me somewhere in the 11-12 years-old category height-wise.

My weight was 45 kg, which was nearly 10 kg above the average, but those were obviously purely muscles in my case. I was built like a mini Bruce Lee, just a bit better looking.

Ahem, slightly narcissistic moment aside, it was time to measure my strength and speed. I could skip the endurance part for now, since I remembered running for 3 hours but still being able to run more.

I could see how high my endurance was some other time. Anyway, I already had bought and stored all kinds of weight, so I took out some of them to start my strength test. The first aspect would be my pure strength, so I started lifting the weights I took out.

I began with 100 kg which felt pretty easy, so I decided to directly double the weight. However, I had no problem lifting 200 kg as well. Since that was the case I increased the weight by 100 more kilograms, but I was still not feeling a strain.

I raised the weight by 50 kg, and after that by another 50 kg, but I was still not at my limit. Nonetheless, I started to really feel the weight, so I took a 5-minute break to make sure that fatigue did not influence the result.

I kept increasing the weight by 10 kg and at 450 kg I reached my limit. This was really impressive, considering that this was purely my physical strength and that my current physique was only that of an 11-year-old. After taking a short break I decided to repeat the test, but this time I was going to use my aura to boost my strength.

I began with 450 kg for obvious reasons and feeling the strain, or more like the lack of strain I chose to directly raise it to 600 kg. Yet, that still felt easy so I lifted 700 kg next. I slowly kept increasing the weight while taking the occasional short break to recover for a bit until I hit my limit.

It turned out that the maximum I could lift while boosted by was 810 kg.

Once I determined my regular and boosted lift capacity, I chose to find my comfortable carry weight next. I chose to carry the weight like a backpack for this and after some tests, it turned out that 80 kg was the weight I could carry for a prolonged time while actively moving/walking.

I repeated the test once more while boosted by my aura and got 144 kg this time around. Once I was done with my strength tests, I proceeded with my speed ones. I was going to have Xatu help with this one, but first I started to use two twigs to mark a distance of 100 meters.

After that, I called Xatu over and gave him a stopwatch to measure the time it took me to cover those 100 meters. Since I wanted to know my max speed I started roughly 30 meters before the start so that I could leave out the time needed at the beginning to accelerate to my top speed.

I did 3 rounds to make sure the result was more or less correct and the result was that my maximum running speed was 80 km/h. I took a short break before I repeated the test while my aura boost was active. This time my speed came up as 140 km/h.

After that, I did 3 more speed-related tests. The first was to see how long I could keep up my ordinary maximum speed. I had Xatu help me out with these tests as well, and the result of the first one was 5 minutes, which was really impressive.

Still, I had to take a 5-minute break and eat an oran berry as well as leppa berry, before I was ready for the next test. That one was a repeat of the previous one, just with the active aura boost. Surprisingly I actually lasted longer despite running faster. However, the fatigue I felt afterward was much more severe as well.

I had to rest for 20 minutes before I was feeling well enough to continue, and that was with the help of berries. Still, that did make sense since I was not only physically exhausted but also used up quite a bit of my aura reserves.

The third test was to see how fast I was when I was running at a comfortable speed, one I could keep up for a few hours if I had to. Surprisingly the result was 40 km/h, which was awesome.

This meant my cruising speed was roughly as fast as the fastest runner in my previous life as well as nearly double the speed of the fastest long-distance runner who actually covered more than 21 km in an hour. After those tests, I decided to do two more to see how fast my walking speed and leisure walking speed were.

My regular walking speed turned out to be 10 km/h which was impressive since that used to be my running speed in my last life. The speed of my leisure walking turned out to be 5 km/h, which used to be my regular walking speed. Overall my walking speed seemed to have doubled, while my running speed was much, much higher in this life.

One important thing I had to bear in mind was that I was still not fully grown so those results were definitely going to improve in the future. Doing all these tests took nearly all the time I had allotted for my first half, and I was only left with one hour until lunch.

Since that was the case, I decided to simply use the time to determine the limits of my current aura abilities as much as I could during that time. I started with my minor emotion sense. The maximum range I could detect emotions was 80 meters but the farther away from me the target was the vaguer the results got.

When I was focusing on a target in front of me that was not actively suppressing his/her/its emotions, I could differentiate between their emotional nuances like excitement and happiness. However, if it was someone that could mask or suppress his/her/its emotions then I would only be able to get a positive, indifferent, or negative feeling.

I naturally had Xatu help me with these tests, and for the next one, I called out some of the others as well before returning them. What I did was test what happened when I tried to feel the emotions of multiple individuals at once. The result was that I could get a rough read for up to 3 individuals but more than that and it just all mixed into something chaotic.

Once I was done with testing my emotion sense I did the same with my aura sense. The maximum range of this one was quite a bit larger at 120 meters. I could use it to detect the aura/life force of individuals in that range, while it did get rougher the farther away from me the target was.

As long as the target was not suppressing it I could use their aura to roughly guess their strength/life intensity. This was obviously only possible if I had a reference for said strength/life intensity. I could also roughly determine their current health status, but this was also limited to those that couldn't suppress/mask their aura.

Naturally, the same was true for sensing an individual. If he/she/it was able to suppress/mask their aura I would be either unable to sense them at all or I would have a much harder time doing so.

I also did the test with multiple individuals test using my aura sense, and I had no problem detecting a high number of individuals, but if they were clustered together it got hard to differentiate between them.

After taking a 10-minute break I started testing my minor aura speech. I found out that it worked best in a radius of 30 meters around me, after that it got worse until it became useless at 60 meters. The good thing was that I could target either a single individual or multiple at once, without significant loss of effectiveness.

However, as one would think targeting individuals worked the best. The range of emotions I could convey was pretty extensive, covering most of them, but some nuances were still too hard, such as feeling hopeless and gloomy.

Once I was done with that only the minor internal aura manipulation was left and I tried my best to test that one with the resources available to me.

I was able to roughly determine that I could use my aura to boost a single aspect of my body by 80%. Included in this were my jump distance/height, strength, speed, endurance, thinking, regeneration, and reflexes.

I was actually able to more or less accurately test the first four, but the last three were much harder to determine, but I had no reason to think otherwise. When I focused on boosting two aspects simultaneously I had trouble doing so, but in cases where I succeeded the boost got reduced to 50%.

I was unable to focus on three or more aspects simultaneously, but I could use my aura for an overall boost, which was about 20%. I, unfortunately, did not have enough time to measure how long I could keep that up since I already had extended my aura session by 30 minutes, but except for that I was done anyway. Right now it was time for lunch.
