Chapter 5

One month has passed and his strength is improving with astonishing speeds, with proper equipment and determination his rate of growth has started getting faster.

Even with the meditation, he started doing it seriously since it help him relax and replaces his sleep entirely.

But he still couldn't find that energy that they were talking about.

Other than his meditation he still trained his body to the extreme, he didn't forget to steal from time to time in order to make money.

>>>>

5 months passed and he finally got the hang of his aura.

Right now, a white gas like thing was flowing out of every part of his body.

"This is aura huh, but why does it keep flowing out of my body."

*THUMP*

He looked backwards and saw the book that was on the table fall down on the ground and open itself on page.

He walked towards it and picked it up.

It was a bold text written on a blank page.

"Try and keep your aura inside your body, else your body will collapse from fatigue.

Aura is a person's life energy, if you exhaust all of it you won't be able to move."

As soon as he read that he jumped on the bed in the position he usually meditates and started to try and keep his aura in his body.

The aura reminded him of gas so he thought of the aura inside his body as water, he felt that focusing all of it in a single point is kind of inefficient so he distributed it to all parts of his body.

When he opened his eyes he saw a thin layer of white aura covering his whole body.

"It feels like something but it doesn't weight anything at the same time, like I'm wearing another layer of clothing but not really at the same time.

So this is aura huh?

But what can I do with it?"

He looked at the book and saw the new page.

"The four major principles of aura?

Let's see:

If you managed to stop the flow of aura from leaving your body then that means you've achieved the first step, keeping your aura around your body so it won't leak is named Ten."

He looked at his body and said. "Alright that's done, what's next.

Zetsu - close off your aura nodes in order to stop the aura from flowing out, this will make your presence very hard or almost impossible to notice."

He closed his eyes and tried to close off his aura nodes.

After 1 minute he exhaled and said. "This was harder than I expected."

Even though he said that, there was no aura seeping out of him, meaning that he managed to activate Zetsu.

He was a little tired from all of this aura stuff, he went back to Ten and went to the metal block that had his fist imprinted on it countless times.

*BAM*

He sent a full powered punch towards it and the radius of his attack expanded, instead of it being the imprint of his fist it was a round hole and it was deeper then before.

His eyes widened and he looked at his fist. "It doesn't hurt as much as before and my hits are stronger.

I'll go out and test it out.

>>>>

Hudson was standing above 10 armed adults, on the ground there were their weapons which were used to attack Hudson.

It was easier, he could beat these guys with way less effort than before.

The guys who were on the ground were goons whose asses he beat some time ago when he was caught stealing.

While in combat he instinctively focused more aura on his fist while beating the crap out of the last dude, resulting in his head cracking open on the first hit.

He looked down at the grown man who was looking at him with fear and said. "Who do you think you guys are to attack me?

Now you have to pay the price."

He lifted his hand up and gathered a lot of aura into his fist, the aura wasn't as smooth as before, it looked spiky in a sense.

*BOOM*

He punched the only guy that was conscious in the face, his skull was caved in and blood splattered all over Hudson's fist.

Hudson took a cloth from his pocket and cleaned his right fist while walking away.

With his newfound power he was thinking of practicing this aura until he would get even stronger. 'There are probably some secrets that that book didn't teach me yet, I'll have to learn those four major principles and then I'll see.'

What he didn't know is that he already subconsciously used is Ryu, focusing more aura on a body part while still maintaining aura all over your body.

>>>>

Hudson was now 13 and it took him a little over six months to learn all the other techniques there were, his talent in controlling the aura around his body was insane.

He was able to learn everything the book thought him.

What was weird was the fact that he didn't meet another aura user yet, so no real combat experience was derived from these months.

So he basically didn't have a choice from the start, this Hatsu was imposed on him and he can't do anything about it.

He took the water divination test and learned that he is a specialist.

He blames the book for this because what's supposed to be his technique is described in the book.

His technique is confusing to say the least.

It's official name is Projection and he can use it on himself and other things.

[Warning! INFO DUMP]

This technique divides one second into twenty-four frames of animation using the user's field of view as the projection angle of view. The user can trace a predetermined set of movements into those twenty-four frames and execute them in that single second. Moving using this technique makes the user appear to move unnaturally fast,

While Projection is active, anything touched by the user's palm must also abide by the "24 FPS" rule while moving. Failure to do so results in the subject getting immobilized and frozen in an animation frame for one second.

[Info dump end]

It basically allows the user to make 24 different moves when activated in a single second.

Meaning he has to think of his movement before doing it and then execute it, if he doesn't do the exact same moments that he thought of he will be trapped in a glass like 2D square for 1 second.

And if he touches someone while the technique is activated they have to abide the 24 movements per second rule or they will be the ones trapped for one second.

But the downside of this technique is that if someone somehow predicts his movements while using this technique he will be the one who gets hit.

Since he can't change the trajectory of his movement in that second.

Up until now he could only use the technique on others since he himself crashes into walls when using this technique, but he thinks that with continuous attempts he will be able to get the hang of it.
