Becoming The Master

"Wow, I thought all treasure that gains intelligence can't talk," said Jason in surprise as he stares at the glowing bracelet.

"Yes but this one is special" replied the bracelet.

"So what are you doing in the lake when you should be with your owner," asked Jason.

"I lost my master a long time ago and I don't think it would be coming back" replied the bracelet.

"Oh, I am sorry about that but you see I have to go back to training," said Jason as he decided to wear the bracelet in his hand.

"Are you still thinking of practicing that technique?" asked the bracelet.

"Not a chance, I need to train my legs first before making another attempt but I need to be fast since the tournament is not far ahead" replied Jason.

"There are many ways to make your body stronger, one of it is through refining your body with the blood of a beast, through lightning tribulation, by practicing a body strengthen technique, and so on," said the bracelet.

"Unfortunately for me, I don't have any of those that you mentioned" replied Jason as he kicks at the tree.

"Indeed, you don't but the same thing cant be said about me" replied the bracelet.

When Jason heard this word, he froze with his leg raise up ready to kick the tree once more.

"If you have all the things needed to strengthen the body, then you must help me," said Jason as he dropped his leg and begin to look at the bracelet like a huge treasure.

"Yes I do, but there is no way I can help you with it" replied the bracelet.

"Why can't you help me," asked Jason.

"That is because you are not my master" replied the bracelet.

"But your master is won't be coming, why don't I be your new master," asked Jason.

"Like you are qualified to be my master," said the bracelet with a sound of mockery in its voice as he spoke.

"I know right now I am not qualified but you can't say the same thing about the future" replied Jason seriously.

"I like to think about the present and not the future," said the bracelet.

"Okay, then I hope you don't mind if I threw you back into the lake and you can wait for all eternity for your so-called master ghost to find you" replied Jason with a cunning smile on his face.

"You wouldn't dare," said the bracelet.

"Oh really, then watch closely" replied Jason as he begins to head towards the lake.

After getting to the lake, Jason took the bracelet off his wrist and tossed it up a little before catching it before pulling his hand back as he was getting ready to throw the bracelet into the lake and seeing that the little kid before him was serious about throwing it away, the bracelet said in a panic.

"Okay fine you are my master, so do you mind putting your hand down"

"Haha, I thought you don't want me to be your master, so why the change of heart," asked Jason with a laugh.

"Why can't you be my master, I was only testing you to see if you are going to give up after been told you are not qualified but you never did" replied the bracelet.

"Okay, so when do we start with the ceremony of ownership," asked Jason.

"What ceremony are you talking about" replied the bracelet with a question.

"Don't you dare act like a fool in front of me, you think I don't know about the ceremony performed in other to be the sole owner of a treasure" said Jason.

"You mean leaving your print on me, you would have said so" replied the bracelet.

"Yes, so when do we start" asked Jason.

"Easy, just leave a blood print on me" replied the bracelet.

Not waiting time, Jason bite his thumb leaving a little wound to appear with blood flowing out at a slow pace before pressing the thumb on the bracelet. The moment the thumb came in contact with the bracelet, an ancient word made out of blood was forming on the bracelet and that is when Jason felt his connection with the bracelet which signifies that he was successful with the ceremony.

"Alright now that I am your master, it's time to let me have the technique for body strengthen," said Jason happily.

"Sorry to disappoint you kid, but you see your realm is quite low to access the bracelet" replied the bracelet but this time wasn't talking out instead it was talking in his head.

"Hey, why can I hear you in my head," asked Jason.

"Now that you are my master, it's much better talking to you through thought since I won't be wasting my energy" replied the bracelet.

"So how can I talk to you now, since it will look kind of crazy talking to myself," asked Jason.

"Just try talking in your mind and that's all" replied the bracelet.

Jason follows as he was instructed to and the bracelet also gave him a reply.

"Alright, now that we are done with communication, now back to the question. How am I supposed to get my body stronger when I am not strong enough" said Jason.

"As I said before, the blood of a beast and lightning tribulation can help. And since it's rare for a lightning tribulation to occur, then your only choice is to get the blood of a beast and the beast has to be a stage higher than you" replied the bracelet.

"How am I supposed to kill a beast that is stronger than me not to talk of refining my body with its blood which I am new to" complain Jason.

"I can help you with the refining process, it's the least I can do since you are my master but you will have to get the beast blood yourself" replied the bracelet.

"Fine, guess I will be going back to make Preparation," said Jason as he left the woods.
