《Yin Yang Saint of Athena》Kuro’s Awakening to Half a Step 8th Sense – Further Training Part 2
Advertisement
“I will aid you, but I can only do this thrice. I have already helped you before when you were at Death’s door, and this will be the second time” voiced the consciousness of the YYSC.
Afterwards, a very powerful Gold and Dark cosmos began to envelope Kuro. A Yin-Yang avatar began to form in his back sucked. It took in the cosmos rapidly, as if starved for a long time.
A notification rang in the mind of Kuro.
“Initiating forceful condensation of Light and Darkness cosmos.”
“Absorption started.”
“Progress at 1%.”
After the time for half an incense to burn, the cosmos from the YYSC was fully absorbed, and Kuro woke up with his left eye completely Dark/Black and his right eye completely Golden.
“Progress at 100%.”
“Total cosmos absorbed – 50%”
“Attained Half a step 8th Sense!”
“The other 50% of the cosmos will be stored and absorbed once Gold Saint Level is achieved by the host.”
Half a step to the 8th sense! Said the shocked consciousness of the YYSC.
Kuro was now similar in terms of power with Libra Dohko of the previous generation after entering the Abyss and awakening the similar half a step to the 8th sense.
“Now that you have the power of a Silver Saint, the cosmos of a Gold Saint and a sturdy physical body, you can now begin your journey to Europe, towards the Dark Lord’s newly manifested castle.”
“You are now also qualified to wield the Sagittarius Yin Yang Bow.”
“For now, you can only use either light based attacks or darkness based attacks.”
“Upon further training, you’ll be able to obtain balance in your Yin and Yang, in your Light and Darkness Cosmos, and you can execute the most powerful Yin Yang attacks that this cloth can release.”
Numerous notifications rang on Kuro's mind once more.

“Ding!”
“You have unsealed more details about your Yin Yang powers.”
“Light Cosmos unsealed!”
“Darkness Cosmos unsealed!”
“You now have to defeat more enemies and garner more experience in order to fully utilize the half a step 8th sense.”
“At your current level, you cannot fully utilize it. You can use it at two to three breaths at the most.”
“Afterwards, you will be in a weakened state.”
Kuro took note of the YYSC’s reminder, and he opted to check his stats by channelling his bright golden eye.

Further notifications rang inside his mind.
“Learned: Light Cosmos Arrows, 10MP per cast – Shoots 100 Light Arrows”

“Learned: Darkness Cosmos Arrows, 10MP per cast – Shoots 100 Darkness Arrows”
“Learned: Cheiron’s Light Impulse 75MP per cast – Shoots a Cosmos powered Light Arrow”
“Learned: Cheiron’s Darkness Impulse 75MP per cast – Shoots a Cosmos powered Darkness Arrow”
The YYSC explained to Kuro on how to invoke his skills. As such, a large amount of information flooded Kuro’s consciousness within a few breaths.
“For now, you can try to shoot either Light arrows or Darkness arrows.”
“Take note that you can use potions such as HP potions to restore your Hit Points and MP/CP potions to restore your mana points/cosmos points”
“You need to be at the Gold level to fully utilize the Half a Step 8th sense that you have” reminded the YYSC.
Kuro then began to hasten the journey towards Europe using his newly awakened power. He would often jump very high and glide using the wings of the YYSC (to save his physical energy and cosmos). By the rate of his travel, he would be able to reach Turkey by a weeks’ time. He would then head-in to Greece, the only place in Europe which was unaffected by the forces of the Dark Lord (since Greece was formerly the home of the Gods and it contains their cosmos, preventing anything and anyone with Dark Cosmos from entering it).
Along the way, Kuro effortlessly dispatched the Cultists of the Dark Lord, minions of Hades and other forces of Vearn who stood his way. Giant skeletons, zombies, zombie soldiers, peeping eyes, giant bats, mermen and even ghosts were no match for a Kuro who has a half a step 8th sense.
“Cheiron's Light Impulse!!” shouted Kuro, while channelling his cosmos to the maximum.
His arrow was able to sweep thru all of the obstacles in front, destroying all kinds of forces of the Dark Lord in his wake. By deploying 10% of his power he is able to generate a diameter of 10 meters for each arrow. Hence, the shockwaves of his attacks were equivalent to the fully-powered attacks of Gold Saints who are in the Advanced Realm of the 7th sense.
“Ding!”
“Experience + 1000!”
“Experience + 1000!”
“Experience + 1000!”
“Experience + 1000!”
Numerous notification rang inside Kuro’s mind after dispatching a large horde of enemies.
“I’ll also teach you the techniques of the Pegasus Cloth.”
“The Pegasus Cloth’s techniques naturally consume less cosmos.”
“Also, since we Cloths are brothers and we had the same owner which was Seiya before, I know how to invoke the primary techniques of Pegasus.”
Within a couple of breaths time, another batch of information was fed into Kuro’s mind directly by the YYSC.
“Ding!”
“Learned: Pegasus Ryu Sei Ken, 20MP, shoots a barrage of Meteor Fists towards the enemy.”
“Learned: Pegasus Syu Sei Ken, 50MP, the barrage of Meteor Fists are concentrated solely on one point.”
“Learned: Pegasus Rolling Crash, 75MP, a melee attack similar to a suplex, crashes the enemy’s head into the ground.”
As such, Kuro’s skill list was updated:

"You'll be able to deal with mini-bosses and weaker enemies a lot easier now."
"Remember, these techniques will help you deal with groups of enemies a lot faster, but do not neglect your training."
With a nod, Kuro understood that he cannot completely rely on the Saint Techniques in order to be victorious in the upcoming battles.
