Physical Examination

The last thing that they needed to do to determine the usefulness of the ability was to test it. Alice raised a barrier in between them, and gestured toward it with her fist.

"With just the lightning up, give that a punch as hard as you can. It will tell us how your muscles are recovering, as well as if the lightning can already stand up to an Awakened Rank impact. If it can't, it will break around your fist when you hit the barrier." She explained.

Karl snapped a fast punch at the barrier, and frowned. His strength wasn't fully recovered, and the physical strength wasn't as high as he would have preferred, but the lightning crackled against the barrier, making it glow bright blue, and held firm.

"Well, it's an Awakened Rank ability, for certain. Karl will need to keep the lightning up as much as possible for a while, but the barrier is as good or better than that Awakened Rank training armour." Alice informed the others.
