The Depths of Psychic Power

The underground bunker buzzed faintly with anticipation as Seiji stood in the center, arms crossed, with Jin facing him. They had only begun scratching the surface of Jin's true abilities, and Seiji intended to make sure Jin understood the vast power at his disposal.

Seiji asked with a sly grin, his tone playful but underlined with seriousness. "That little trick you pulled on Faceless, making him believe he won, was good, but it's only the beginning."

Jin frowned, tilting his head slightly. "You're saying that was just… the first step?"

Seiji nodded. "Exactly. What you used there was The Will. This one is about influence—over thoughts, emotions, and even actions. It's not as simple as mind control; it's about bending someone's will to align with yours. With enough practice, you could make an enemy lay down their weapon or inspire an army to follow you." it also allows you penetrate into someone mind and soul,But there's so much more, Jin. Psychic power is layered, intricate, and boundless if mastered."

He stepped forward, his expression turning more serious. "Let me lay it out for you. There are seven phases in total. What you've touched is just one. Let's break them down."

Jin listened intently as Seiji began to explain, his voice taking on an almost instructional tone.

"First, The Sight—perception beyond the physical. It's what lets you see things others can't. Hidden truths, distant events, even fragments of the future. It's all about tuning your senses beyond what's right in front of you. You used it instinctively, but imagine what you could do if you mastered it."

Jin nodded slowly, his eyes narrowing. " that's great"

Alright. And the others?"

Seiji chuckled. "It can be. But remember, power is a tool—it's how you use it that defines its purpose." He continued. "Then there's The Force. This is where things get fun. You can manipulate physical matter, move objects, create barriers, or even crush your enemies without lifting a finger. It's raw power at its finest."

Jin couldn't help but smirk. "That does sound useful."

"Useful?" Seiji laughed. "You have no idea." He raised another finger. "The Blade. This phase combines offense and defense. You can create weapons of pure energy, shield yourself, or even attack from a distance. It's like wielding your mind as both sword and armor."

Jin's expression grew more focused. "What else?"

"The Touch," Seiji said. "Healing and strengthening. This one's about restoration. You can mend wounds, cure ailments, and even enhance someone's natural abilities. It's a gift, but it takes precision."

Jin raised an eyebrow. "Healing? That's… unexpected."

Seiji shrugged. "Psychic power isn't just about destruction. It's about balance. Now, for the advanced phases: The Rift. This is where you start messing with time and dimensions. Slowing time, stopping it, stepping between worlds—it's the kind of power that makes you almost untouchable."

Jin blinked in disbelief. "That sounds… impossible."

Seiji smirked. "It's only impossible until you learn it. And finally, The Flow. Mastery of energy and vitality. This is where you manipulate life force itself, fueling your abilities and pushing beyond limits."

Jin exhaled sharply, trying to absorb everything. "That's… a lot to take in."

Seiji nodded. "It is. But don't worry—we'll take it one step at a time. For now, let me show you how it's done."

He turned and gestured toward the shadows of the bunker. "Come on out, Pebo."

A massive figure emerged, towering over Jin. It was a polar bear mink, standing upright in a sleek black jumpsuit with a distinctive heart emblem. The bear's sharp teeth glinted as it stepped forward, its heavy paws thudding against the ground.

"Pebo, meet Jin," Seiji said casually. "Jin, meet my training partner."

Jin stared, wide-eyed. "He… he can talk?"

Pebo smirked, crossing his muscular arms. "Of course, I can talk. Don't look so surprised, kid."

Jin blinked, still processing the sight of the enormous bear. "Alright… so what's the deal here?"

Seiji chuckled. "Pebo's going to help with a demonstration. Watch closely." He turned to Pebo. "Attack me."

Pebo grinned, baring his sharp teeth. "You asked for it."

The polar bear lunged forward with surprising speed for his size, swinging a massive paw at Seiji. Seiji, however, closed his eyes and stood perfectly still.

"Seiji, what are you doing?!" Jin shouted.

"Relax," Seiji said calmly, his eyes still shut. "This is The Sight in action, though for me it's called The Omni Vision"

As Pebo's paw came within inches of Seiji, he sidestepped smoothly, evading the attack with precision. Before Pebo could launch a follow-up strike, Seiji pointed to a spot on the ground. "There," he said, as if predicting Pebo's next move.

Sure enough, Pebo lunged at the exact spot Seiji indicated, only to find empty air as Seiji moved again. Jin watched in awe.

"How… how are you doing that?" Jin asked.

"It's all about focus," Seiji explained, finally opening his eyes. "With The Sight, I can see the flow of energy and predict movements before they happen. It's like reading a map of possibilities."

Jin shook his head, impressed. "That's insane."

Seiji grinned. "And that's just the beginning." He turned back to Pebo. "Alright, let's show him The Will."

Pebo nodded and prepared to attack again, but this time, Seiji locked eyes with him. The air in the room grew heavy, charged with invisible energy. Pebo's movements slowed, and his knees buckled as if an enormous weight pressed down on him.

"Seiji…" Pebo muttered, struggling to stay upright. "What…are you doing "

"Controlling your will," Seiji said, his voice calm but commanding. "With The Will, I can break through mental defenses and bend thoughts to my intent. It's not brute force—it's total control."

Jin took a step back, feeling the sheer power radiating from Seiji. "That's… overwhelming."

Seiji released Pebo, who exhaled heavily and straightened up. "It's all about practice, Jin," Seiji said. "And soon, you'll be able to do this too."

Jin nodded, determination flickering in his eyes. "Alright. Let's get started."

But Jin stood there, his gaze locked onto Seiji, his mind racing with questions he couldn't quite articulate. The display of things he could do with his psychic prowess had left him in awe, and the ease with which Seiji manipulated the flow of the battle seemed almost otherworldly.

"But Seiji," Jin finally asked, his voice steady but curious, "how are you doing all of this? Its almost like you have same ability "

Seiji smirked, brushing off imaginary dust from his sleeve, his casual demeanor in stark contrast to the gravity of their conversation. "Jin, let me tell you something. My ability isn't so different from yours."

Jin's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean?"

Seiji turned to face him fully, his expression now serious. "Your psychic powers and mine come from the same place,The only difference is how we've trained ourselves to use it. You've scratched the surface of what's possible, but I've had years to refine and master it. It's like comparing a blade fresh from the forge to one that's been sharpened over decades."

Jin tilted his head, processing Seiji's words. "So, you're saying I could do what you just did? Predict movements, bend someone's will, even control energy?"

Seiji nodded, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Exactly. But it's not as simple as just wanting it. Psychic power isn't just about strength—it's about precision, discipline, and most importantly, focus. You have the potential, Jin. You've already shown it with your fight against Faceless. Now, it's time to hone that potential into something unstoppable."

Jin's resolve hardened, his fists clenching slightly at his sides. "Then let's do it. Teach me everything."

Seiji's grin widened. "That's the spirit. But don't get cocky, kid. This road isn't easy, and the first step is understanding your own limits. Only then can you break them."

Seiji turned to Pebo, who was now observing the two with a curious expression. "Pebo, get ready. We're about to push this kid to his limits."
