Chapter 102 New Powers And Future Troubles
" telekinesis? No it's not. This is something I can do spiritual manipulation. It does, indeed share some similarities to telekinesis."
"Can you teach me?" Esdras asked enthusiastically.
" sure, I don't mind. You will be able to use it later on naturally, but it doesn't hurt to learn right now. It will help you in situations where you can't use mana. But it will take practice and hard work."
" first you have to practice, maintaining your spiritual energy outside of your physical body. After you can maintain it perfectly without any waste, you can move onto the next step, which is infusing your spiritual energy into objects.
Once you do that, you will feel the connection between you and the object remember to start small. Finally, if your spiritual energy and practice reaches a certain degree you can infuse your spiritual energy into living beings and possess them. However, there is a condition to all this."
"What is it?"
" you must collect negative energy from other living beings, negative energy is the perquisite do using these kind of special abilities. You don't need to much of it you just need some of it in order to transform your spiritual energy slightly and give it negative energy from the negative energy plane."
" and how do I do that? Are there any repercussions to this?" Esdras what is not a rash, he wanted to explore everything before trying it out himself and finding out later.
He had to find out if it was worth it or not. The ability sounded really powerful and very useful. If used correctly in combat scooter the tide and even become a trump card.
" don't worry as I said you were just taking a little bit of negative energy, let nearly like ghosts, or other undead. Besides I will teach you to make sure that the negative energy stays stored within your spirit body."
" can I go beyond the third stage?" Esdras wondered.
"Of course if you want to increase the abilities at your disposal, you have to absorb more negative energy in that case you might be able to acquire abilities like hypnosis, illusion, and so forth. Of course, this all comes to increasing the negative energy and when it goes past a certain range the negative energy will start to corrode you which will slowly change you into a killing machine."
" all right I guess that risk is acceptable." Esdras nodded, it was indeed possible for things to go wrong, but there was no such thing as a risk-free power. Everything came at a price.
"Good, I will pass on that negative energy gathering technique to you. Once you complete it, you will be ready to start training to maintain your spiritual energy outside of your physical body."
"Thank you, actually, I just realize that the talking to you is much easier than I thought it would be. Back when you first awakened, you acted like a third grade villain." Esdras laughed.
"Ah, don't mention it that was actually because of the negative energy corruption that I suffer in order to resurrect myself. Negative energy has the impact of amplifying the worst traits that you possess. On the other hand, you can access all of these abilities without having to take on the burden of another class."
" the burden of another class?" Esdras repeated that exactly comprehending, " is it bad to have a lot of classes?"
Esdras thought that he could take on any number of classes that he liked he could make up for any weaknesses. He had an update any type of ability as long as he had enough EXP.
" obviously it's bad, the problem is that you do not understand what the class is. Think of yourself as a container for power and knowledge. Now, as a vessel do you have infinite capacity? Obviously not. Living beings have a limited capacity, and I cannot endure too many classes in fact, the disadvantages of so many that I struggle to even list them one by one."
" what are the worst of them then?" Esdras wanted to hear the bad news first.
" well, the worst of them is that at rank six, you will have to become a complete elemental being if you wanted to advance further. You would have to either pledge your self to one of the primordials or the elemental chaos itself. I can't tell which is worse."
Esdras was curious about the remarks from before.
"You completely abandoned the mystical path which is much more suitable to your talents. I assume you did that because your life was in danger, right?"
"… what? I didn't choose this class. All the mages of this world are elemental mages." Esdras wasn't sure if this was a joke or not.
" what do you mean? This is the mainstream class in this world? That can't be right. Even if someone tampered with it, it's impossible that other majors would not discover the mystical path themselves after so long…"
"Are you saying that the so-called mystical path should be found in every world? Aren't there many worlds in the universe it's normal for some places to be different than others. In fact, isn't it weird that you would think it was a uniform choice?"
Esdras so that there was a flaw in the logic of the pharaoh of the road with so many words in the universe. It's unlikely that they will all have the same discoveries in the same leanings.
" you're saying this because you don't understand what a mage is, a mage can't learn any other school of magic they are restricted to the elemental magic alone, how stupid is that? You are basically giving up the versatility of a spellcaster for the sake of immediate power."
"You are saying that…" Esdras didn't know if he should continue that line of thought.
" yes, even if I wanted to teach you other things you are now restricted even if I try to teach you another mystical class you wont to be able to learn it."
