Chapter 61Open Manuals And Considered Contribution Points

When Tumunomi Escaver was done wagging his fingers in the air that trailed little blood from where they were pricked he frowned at the book that was now open.

Stepping closer, though, he cou could not believe his eyes.

*ASSIGNMENT ONE*

FIRST, VISUALISATION IS IMPORTANT. SO, BEFORE, AND AFTER BREATHING TECHNIQUE EXERCISES, IMAGINE THE VARIOUS SYSTEMS OF YOUR BODY.

Below was a diagram that showed in exquisite detail the human body in an internal view. Starting from the Muscular System which portrayed Muscular Structure, it then went to Respiratory that showed the lungs and the heart. Then, to the Circulatory System showing the heart, the veins, the arteries and how the blood vessels reached throughout the human body. The Skeletal System showed his bone structure and the the Digestive system began with his moth and ended with his rectum. The Nervous System showed his nerves and his brains and the synapses.

For the more he had seen, Tumunomi Escaver knew it would have been averagely difficult if he was without a chip. But being with one, visualisation came almost too easy. It was almost as if he could see his memories like pictures before his eyes!

*WHEN YOU ARE SURE TO HAVE GOTTEN ALMOST EFFORTLESS AT VISUALISATION, FOLLOW THE PATHWAYS AND BEGIN BREATHING TO CULTIVATE WIND INTO YOUR ABILITIES*

Below another intricate diagram was being shown but this one portrayed arrows moving uin different directions. The first set on one color moved into the nostrils went down to around the diaphragm and then came back out.

The second set of colored arrows showed the drawing in of chi yo the human diagram

The third color showed the leaving if Chi from the diagrams proximity.

Finally there were 2 different set of markings indicated to show the difference between long breaths and short breaths.

Eyes glittering, Tumunomi Escaver began his breathing techniques. He had not exactly felt comfortable but he had felt something. Either ways, now he was more convinced.

Now he had a new schedule

Wake up, hit his physical limits, eat, sleep off, visit his habitats, visualise his body, attempt the assignment on his Breathing Technique Manual, hit his physical limits again, get peppered by the rattan sticks, sleep eat, hit his physical limits for the last time then visualise before attempting the assignment on his Breathing Technique Manual again.

After 2 weeks, he noticed a slight change to the punches and kicks he practiced during the times when he tried breaking his limits. His sessions consisted of full body stretching, full body workouts before practicing punches, kicks, gymnastics and polymeric exercises. At first he was not sure if he was seeing things but

at some point he was fairly certain that he was moving with terrible ease; almost as if one move was flowing into the other.

After Finim Barboach had peppered him with Rattan Sticks when he was done like he had read in the 'Basics Of Werecreature Daily Life', he faded to sleep and woke up to eat. Next, he pushed himself to his limits again before doing his assignments.

Tumunomi Escaver realised he needed extra contribution points. So, he decided to run it for the next month, marking 2 months since he began.

Now, as he was about finishing his Breathing Technique session, he remembered how when he punched or kicked, the air lightly shimmered around his fists and feet. Faint though it was, he knew he had made progress.

Eventually, with his dedication, the rimes he took to do his schedule became shorter and shorter. Meaning that, he could now apply to begin getting Contribution Points.

Going upstairs, he wanted to ask after pressing the red button but hesitated and walked towards where he expected Jacob to be.

In the boy's presence, Tumunomi Escaver detected something and he couldn't tell what but Jacob smiled as if acknowledging his level of dedication.

"You have a question?"

Peter, George, Jin, Jake, Andrew, John, Jason and Iri were present. His entrance drawing hem to look at him.

"Yes."

"What is it." A smug smile was on his fae as he knew Tumunomi Escaver would be happy with the choice he had picked.

"How do i measure my progress with the book?"

"Show it your Chi"

"Will that make it change it's words?"

Jacob's eyes flashed but he remained calm. "It will."

"Okay."

"Normally one would show gratitude by saying thank you."

Tumunomi Escavsr ignored him abd kept on heading to the door.

"Wait!" John's voice called to him. "Please."

Tumunomi Escaver halted and turned halfway.

"We were talking about what is coming up and how we need to work together."

"... Let me work on myself so that i am not a liability."

"Selfish punk."

Once again, Tumunomi Escaver ignored Peter as he stepped out
