《The Aria Chronicles》Changing Paths
Advertisement
After two hours of training, I sat on the Bed again, utterly exhausted. Usage of Mystic is really exhausting, and I trained with it till I could not use an ounce of Mystic Power.
Though the training was exhausting, it was quite filling as well. The battle with half-blood had given me many ideas and inspiration, which had helped me immensely when I was training.
If I had to face half Blood now, It would not be a problem for me to kill it in a minute for me. When I fought against it, I had just comprehended the Mystic, but now I have got a very tiny amount of Grasp over it.
Though it is nothing impressive, it is enough to handle the opponent like Half-Blood Vampire.
I laid on the Bed for the twenty minutes before, I got up and chewed on some monster meat. As the meat entered my stomach, I felt the heat, and that heat transferred to every part of my body.
After I finished with the first piece, I chewed on a few more before I started to fill full. The Mystic did not use either Physical Energy or Soul Energy, but it makes one feel tired in both for some reason, and I had felt that the strength of Body and Soul played a vital role in the usage of Mystic.
Another half an hour passed, and I finally started to feel good, seeing that I got from the Bed and walked toward the open space present in the middle of the cave. Standing there, I took a couple of deep breaths before I took out my Saber.
It is the same Saber that my father had given me, I've used it very few times, but now that I am Baron, I could perfectly use this Peak Grade 2 Weapon.

I am planning to use Mystic with my Saber. I don't think that Mystic is only be used through the Knives. Mystic could be used on anything or any being; as long I can utilize it well, the Mystic could be used on anything.
So, without waiting, I circularly moved the Saber while adding Mystic on my Saber, and to surprise, it worked like a charm. I was able to move full circle with my Saber; through it worked, many problems could be seen.
To swing the Saber circularly, I had to move with the Saber, and when I moved, my speed was very slow, it was barely tenth of knives. I could not move circles with Saber; it will easily give a chance to my enemy to kill me.
To use the Saber with Mystic, I had to change the path of the Saber as using only a circular path would not work and I think doing it with Saber would be far easier compared to the knives as Saber is my hands which I had been practicing for more than a decade.
My mastery over Telekinesis could not be compared with my mastery over the Saber. So, I am quite hopeful that I will be able to change the paths of my Saber instantly from one path to another.
So, I tried it, I started with the circular path, and when the Saber moved half a meter, I tried to change its path to that of the Oval, but just as I did that, the Mystic on the Saber broke apart.
"I did not expect to succeed in the first try," I muttered to myself and continued to try, each try failed, but I continued as I had a hope that I would succeed, so I continued to try as success will come as long as I kept trying.

I continued training till now, I had tried hundreds of times, but each try turned into a failure, but despite constant failures I continued, not minding the exhaustion that is building inside me with each try.
Sup Zar...
Finally, what feels like days of trying, I was finally able to succeed. I was able to change the path of my Saber from Circular to Oval. It is an amazing feeling, one moment, my Saber is moving in a circular arc, and then the next moment, it started to follow the Oval path, and I did that without breaking a Mystic.
Seeing my Saber moving in the Oval ark, I tried to change it to an Elliptical one, but just as I did that, the Mystic broke. Seeing that, I couldn't help but smile before starting again.
I started again, this time, also I failed, but the failure of four times and failure of hundreds of times is different. After four failures, I succeeded in changing the path of my Saber while maintaining Mystic, but when I tried the third path, I failed again.
I continue trying. First I had to face the failure a few time before I succeed changing the path, but as the time passed, I started getting more and more proficient that now, I did not get fail when I changed the trajectory of my Saber for the first time, it was the second time I am failing, but I have a feeling that I will succeed soon.
I was right, I soon succeeded in changing the path of my Saber second time, and after that, I continue trying till I am utterly exhausted. This time, I did not walk toward the Bed but the stream.
I took off the white dress I am wearing before I entered the stream. It was a good thing I did wear a bra; otherwise, it would have been a plain hassle to remove and woke it again.
I soaked myself in the stream and felt its refreshing coldness spreading through my body, rejuvenating my exhausted body and mind. If I was able to get out, I am going to Miss this stream very much.
I would have taken a few vats of these stream water with me, but this water loses its effectiveness in a few hours, so taking this water is useless.
I soaked in the stream water for half an hour before I walked out unwillingly and started practice again. I practiced till the late night, and by the time I was able to change the path of my Saber two times without any failures.
This is a huge thing; now I have the confidence to fight against the Half-Blood Orc, I am going to fight with it using my Saber and keep my Telekinesis as the Trump Card.
After I make all the preparations, I sleep. I could have continued training and would have improved little, but I opted to sleep. I want to have a good night's sleep before I fight against the Orc Blood in the morning.

8 246Turn-Based Engineer
When James woke up five years before, he did not expect to end up in this weird, new world. Here, he found a reality filled with queer rules and magic beyond his imagination. Despite all this, he clung to his peaceful roots that he had been brought up with. With his knowledge, he could have changed the world. However, he did not wish to become some reckless adventurer or fearsome ruler; instead, he only sought to protect his loved ones and live a happy life. Sometimes though, the call of adventure forces itself upon even those who desperately wish to refuse. Warning: This story has multiple POVs. (But by chapter 15, it kind of narrows down onto James) This work is (as of now) being co-written by Zalex and Entelechy where Zalex has previously written the story, and Entelechy edits/adds pieces.
