Ch 54-Training before the Banquet 1

"Alright everybody this is my newest recruit, Scathach Skadi the Judgement" Introduced Meliodas to the Tarrot Card party.

Altough confused as to how he managed to obtain a new member in a single night, they all welcomed her with opened arms.

Ais being a noble, she herself already knew who Scathach is and her 'situation' as the Skadi family talentless child.

She was confused as to how and why Meliodas recruited her but Ais knew that Meliodas wouldn't invite just anybody unless they contain some special talent.

"Today we will be doing special training besides a few gift to the newcomers" hearing his words both Scathach and Said became exited.

Reaching into his system storage Meliodas took out a weird looking fruit. Ais and Scathach looked at it with confusion Wich was noticed by Meliodas.

"This is for Ais, it's called the Light devil fruit"

"Light Devil fruit?" Said Ais in confusion.

"Yup that's what it's called, now eat it, it will do something cool. Also try not to throw it up otherwise the effect won't happen" warned Meliodas.

Taking the weirdly shaped fruit from his hand, Ais took a bite.

'Disgusting!' was Ais only thoughts as she started to eat the fruit.

It tastes like as if someone had used their washing machine water and mixed it with whatever the hell they could find in their house.

She wanted to throw it up immediately but remembering Meliodas warning, she pushed through and ate the whole thing.

"Good job Ais,here have some water" praised Meliodas.

Seeing the water in his hand, Ais eyes brightened as the taste of the fruit was still in her tongue.

Taking a step forward to wards the water that Meliodas had offered, her body suddenly became a blur.

*Crash* a loud crashing sound sounded out from behind Meliodas.

Everyone except Meliodas who already knew what happened, looked at Ais who was laying on top of a few trees she crashed on.

"W-what the?" Ais herself was dumbfounded at the speed she had moved in.

And she was even more confused as to how.

"Wait?" With realization she looked towards the grinning Meliodas.

"Cool right?, that fruit you ate has now given you the power to controll and become light. The reason you moved at such speed is because had accidentally becomes light and moved at its speed" explained Meliodas leaving everyone surprised.

Especially Ais.

After explaining a bit more into detail about Ais new powers, she became extremely exited.

Especially the fact that she could to now, controll light.

Especially since one of the biggest impacts that Meliodas had left on Ais was when he used his Bahamut powers.

The light that she so wanted to have was now in the palm of her hand.

But of course she didn't become arrogant or impulsive as Ais still needed to learn how to controll her new powers.

"Also Scathach, have this" taking out Gaebolg out of his storage, he handed it to her as it matches what Scathach cursed technique did.

-----------

After giving the devil fruit to Ais, she wanted to go do some personal training as to get aquatinted with her new power but Meliodas said no.

The next part of training didn't involve Ais or her power system but the knowledge that comes with it will be useful.

"Today I will be teaching you a bit more about cursed energy and technique" Meliodas wanted to go through some of the advanced stuff but Ais and Scathach haven't been tought by Meliodas on the basics like Topaz and Ban have.

After a bit of explanation they two girls cought the basic gist of it allowing Meliodas to go to the next stage.

"Now that I've taught you the basics, I will now teach you some of the more complex stuff."

"Besides cursed technique there are other ways to apply cursed energy. There is Black Flash, Reverse Cursed Technique, and domain expansion"

"Let's start of with black flash, Black Flash is a phenomenon that greatly amplifyes the users physical strike when cursed energy is applied to it withing one-millionth of a second" explained Meliodas

"But big bro, what's the phenomenon that causes Black Flash to be so strong" Asked topaz.

She knew that activating cursed energy within such a small timeframe should be difficult. And that it also should be hard to applicate it into battle as the concentration needed to perform it should be quite high.

"Good question Topaz, the phenomenon that Black Flash does is a distortion of space. The black flash itself is strong because the distortion of space causes the power of a normal turn the strike strength to the power of 2.5"

Amazed by this fact, everyone became amazed by the black flash. Still, they knew that such technique should be hard to perform

"Can you do it Cap?" Asked Ban.

"Yes I can, wana see it" responded Meliodas earning a nod from everyone.

Walking towards a tree he lowered his stance and approaches his fist near the tree. Performing a one inch punch, Meliodas struck the tree.

But it was different.

As Meliodas fist seems to make contact, black lightning like energy crackles around his fist.

Everyone who saw this felt danger from the punch.

*Boom*

That single but small thrust obliterated the tree into nothing.

"..." (Everyone)

"I-I didn't think it would be that strong" Commented Scathach.

They knew that Meliodas hadn't put much strength into that punch but despite that, the tree was obliterated.

"See, this is why the black flash is such a strong but hard to perform technique"

"By the way Topaz, you should have a easier time performing black flash if you use your sharingan" The sharingan itself might not have the 200k resolution that gonos six-eyes have, but the perception and reaction time that it gives should be enough to help her perform black flash.

"Thes second technique is called Reversed cursed technique or RCT for short. Topaz remember the pre-algebra that I taught you?, a negative times a negative equals-?"

"A positive" responded Topaz, as someone who wants to become a merchant in the future she was obviously tought math by Meliodas.

"Exactly!, once you multiply cursed energy it will become positive energy. This Positive energy allows you to heal and regenerate your body or other to the point that it looks like instant regeneration it also has some other functions but the healing factor is the most important one, In fact, Ban here is the only one of us capable of doing it while I haven't even been able to achieve it"

Once again, everyone was amazed at how powerful this technique was.

To be able to regenerate ones limbs in mere seconds was a skill that anyone would want to have in their arsenal.

"Now that I have talked about the main two I think it's time to go towards one of the most special yet hard to master skill, Domain Expansion" Now this was were thing get interesting, especially for Meliodas.
