《Aatrox, A God King in a Modern World.》43 - Second Call
Advertisement
Aatrox was watching the children copy the hand seals from the video, but when he felt the energy rushing through Bryan's body and release a small spark in his mouth, he shivered and quickly gripped his brothers now weak body.
While stopping his body from falling, Aatrox related what happened to Bryan to what happened in different universes. Energy is something universal and anyone can use, the problem is that without a perfect technique, the amount of effort just needed to feel the energy is colossal. Now with a high-level technique, feeling the energy in the air is as simple as feeling a coastal breeze while walking on the beach. What differs beyond technique is the way cultivators use energy. Just as some gods used instruments to use energy, there were different people who used energy in different ways. Aatrox once fought a general who used energy with words drawn on paper. For Aatrox it was one of the most frustrating fights, as he could not cut the general before breaking the words that turned to energy and came to attack him.
What probably happened to Bryan was that he put so much faith in these hand signals that they became his instrument for using the energy he had acquired. The hand signals to Aatrox would do absolutely nothing, but for Bryan, who related magic to jutsu, it became the easiest way to understand what energy was.
Aatrox could let his younger brother continue using the hand signals if it helped him, but he couldn't let those hand signals become Bryan's crutch so he could use the energy without having to make the hand seals either. In some situations, he might have his arms disabled.
...
Bruna looked at Bryan in astonishment and a motivated look came to her small face. She knew that this time she had lost their dispute. Bryan had managed to use the energy out of his body before her, but she wouldn't let it stop her, eventually she would pass him, she told herself to stay motivated.

Aatrox picked up little Bryan and placed him on his bed, which was next to the computer.
Amanda had ended the call downstairs and when she went up to see her son, she saw Bryan passed out in the bed by Benjamin. As a mother, the first thing she did was run to the side of the bed to see if all was well with him and then she quickly looked at Benjamin with a questioning gaze. She had a feeling it had something to do with cultivation.
Aatrox feeling his mother's gaze knew what she wanted to know. Before she could ask or create misunderstandings, he answered her. "He went to try to do magic on his own and his body didn't have enough magic and passed out to recover after he was exhausted," Aatrox said.
Hearing this, Amanda's brow furrowed to know she had put the video the kids were watching, unaware it would be dangerous. As she was starting to blame herself, she heard the voice of her eldest son. "Don't worry, in a few minutes he will wake up, in fact, it is highly recommended that everyone who cultivates, at least once in a while, deplete the energy in their bodies so they can store more energy. It will do more good than bad for him." He said as he took her shoulders that had tensed with worry.
Seeing that Amanda had become more relaxed after knowing it would do Bryan well, Aatrox turned to Bruna. He saw that she had a doubtful look on her face and guessed what it could be. "Do you also want to drain your energy to improve?" Aatrox asked.
Bruna, seeing that she had been discovered, had her face blush, but quickly nodded yes, she also wanted to deplete the energy in her body so that in the future she could store more energy inside her.

"It's fine, now that I'm here you don't have to worry. Let's do the following, you will sit comfortably in bed and follow my instructions to release the energy you have within you. This method I will teach you is much safer than forcibly depleting energy as Bryan did. But remember, you can only do this when I am present. When you run out of energy in your body, you become very vulnerable and any kind of unwanted eventualities can occur, so only do so when I'm with you to protect you." Aatrox said with a serious look to show her that he wasn't joking.
Bruna saw that he was serious and would probably be very upset with her if she didn't do what he said. "I promise I'll only do this when you are around brother." Bruna said with her serious little face as she sat on the bed and waited for his instructions.
After helping them, Aatrox heard Amanda talking to him in an excited tone. "Son, you won't guess who just called me."
He heard that and felt a little curious. For her to be saying this, the connection probably had something to do with him or his family, since he had already seen that his love for his family was because of his parents, who loved their family to the same degree. "Who called you?" He asked.
"My sister Soraya called first to say that she had seen your video singing while in Brazil and that her daughter's girlfriends kept complimenting how beautiful you were and that when we went to Brazil again to warn you that they wanted to meet you." Amanda said with a smile, covering her ulterior motives, as she waited to laugh at her son's reaction.
Aatrox did not disappoint her and turned red with embarrassment. Now that he was getting more in touch with other girls and the play, he began to better understand what love was, and the romantic relationships mortals had. "If she called first, who called after?" He asked trying to change the subject and quell his curiosity about who would have called his mother to be so excited about it.
