Life Changes Ddraig

(A little treat.)

He began to envision what the strongest part of his body was, and that shifted to what the strongest thing he owned, the strongest item on him he could produce.

The Body houses the mind and soul, and all three are required to be strong, a powerful will, an intelligent mind, and a strong body.

This continued to cycle, simply because he couldn't choose his strongest trait, he aimed to be the strongest, so it was only natural that every piece of him was the strongest.

It was only after this happened did his clothing seem to melt away as a new outfit appeared on his frame.

Dawning what looked to be sectional plate armor with a tattered cape, the cape held by a gorget with a scarf around the neck to pad the impact and over comfort.

Flexing his gauntleted fingers he could feel a power move through him, feeling far stronger than he did before.

Instead of seeing what looked to be the green gem from the original, there was a soft hum of power beneath the plates that glowed an ominous green.

It seemed he was fully armored other than his head.

''This, feel nice. Snug in the right places, loose where it should be.''

He took a few practice swings, air rushing with his hits as he was fast, he shifted from punches to kicks, moving between stances and practicing these swings, it seemed he had great flexibility still despite the armor.

~So you're my new Partner? You're decent enough, average... Your mana circulation is unrefined and very new, but your body has a decent enough foundation... You're passable.~

'You must be Ddraig.'

~So you know my name? You've done your research then, about time you woke me up then.~

'I won't stand on ceremony, can you help train me?'

~Help train you?... Now that I think about it, why has no one before asked me such a thing? Amusing enough, sure I will train you... First, we'll start with the body, as of now you can't bring out the full potential of full equip~

'Full Equip?'

~It's what you're wearing now, usually most can only summon a piece of the armor, and it takes a form they would be most comfortable with. Those with a strong will and the potential to back it up however are able to equip more, only a few have managed a full equip their first time.~

'Simple enough, how will we train the body?'

~By reducing how your mana operates, slowing it down until it begins to reverse, you will be unable to use mana, but it will act as weights, depending on the level will depend on how much resistance you will feel.~

'Can you do it for me?'

~I can hold on...~

There was silence before he got a sense of vertigo, for a moment it felt like he was going to be sick but he held it in, slowly the armor disappeared and he felt much heavier, just moving to take a great effort. Moving his fingers required an actual conscious thought to move it.

~For a bit it will take a while to get used to it, but the longer you have this active, the stronger you will become. It also gets easier to activate and deactivate as well so you can switch back to normal for combat or when you need it.~

'I have a few more months before I have to start attending school again, let's keep it active for that long, for now, I need to rest.'

~You wish to keep it on while you sleep?~

'Yes, even in my sleep it will increase my skill.'

He began to crawl onto the bed he had in the hotel room, once he got into it took him a bit to relax, before he released a long breath. Falling into meditation before he let sleep take him.

It was a bit after the sun was rising before he woke up to Ddraig's voice.

~Partner, we're being watched.~

'Could you hide as a Twice Critical?'

~Easily, it smell like a fallen angel~

'Leave it be, I'll continue to train in private, if they suspect I'm a Longinus user, I'll take them on then, for now I need to build strength.'

~Understood, just know while I'm disguised my perception is smaller.~

'That's fine, about how far can you see?'

~A hundred meters~

'That's small? Good enough for me, let's get some food then head to the dojo.'

After that, he got onto his bike, the resistance was still there but he just needed to try harder for everything he did. Focusing on his actions a little more, he went to go get some food.

There was a nice place just across the street from the dojo he could get food so that's where he went.

With his hair growing longer he had to pull it back into a ponytail, not dealing with it for now.

Once he finished eating and paid for his meal he made his way across the street to make it into the dojo, where he would train, as usual, getting trashed a bit more today due to the resistance he was going through but overall doing as fine as normal.

Soon just as he was about to head home as he was stopped by one of the females in the dojo.

When he looked up to look at her, direct eye contact she stopped a bit before she finished. ''Issei Hyoudou, I want to fight you! Fair and square, the usual rules apply!''
