Blue flames that seemed to have been burning forever began to slowly die down. When the last ember disappeared, a silhouette could be seen holding a lotus pose in the center of the room. The silhouette's eyes opened up to reveal a deep blue ocean.
The silhouette let out a hot breath of relief. It was the relief from having a safe breakthrough. What followed the sight was bliss and excitement. The excitement of taking another step towards his ultimate goal. "I did it!" He cheered quietly.
The silhouette could not count how many times or for how long he had dreamed of this day. How hard he had worked to make it a reality. It was a feeling that he couldn't describe. Not just the unbridled power now flowing through his veins, but also the sense of accomplishment.
He had surpassed a major milestone, one he sometimes doubted he would ever reach. But thanks to that red-haired beauty, he never gave up, never faltered, and now he was basking in the results.
