《Blessed with a curse (BwC) [Tryout.]》Chapter 1.5 Home sweet home. Or is it?
Advertisement
After arriving at home Dan let Venir rest. It only for a short time before he was pulled out to the backyard.
-It's no point in dwelling on things that can't be done and instead concentrate on what you can do. Daddy is going to help you cheer up and became strong. (Dan)
-You want to be able to at least be able to help me protect mother if something happens, right? (Dan)
Venir that listened could only nod at that, although she was plenty strong herself. She could just glare him down to submission.
But while thinking that an image of a red haired beauty crept on when he thought at being strong and able to protect someone. But he discarded that after remembering something unpleasant.
'Shrimp? I will show her who is a shrimp.. Just because she is a mage in training.' (Venir)
'I can't let myself become weak like I was in my other life. This world are also filled with all kind of dangers.' (Venir)
Dan could see his son made is resolve so he smiled and started to instruct him on how to strengthen his body without having negative effect on his growth.
-Its important you have a strong body and the ability to control it well. Because you are still young and a bit tiny we need to strengthen your body before training in the ways of the sword. (Dan)
-The fastest and best way is to use the external refining technique while training your body the regular way. The regular training will consist of muscle, speed and flexibility training to build you from the ground up. (Dan)
-It is hard and will be painful but nothing will beat a refined body. (Dan)
At those words he is flexing his own body slightly. Strength, speed and flexibility packed together.
His handsome and masculine face didn't make matters worse.
'I can understand why mom fell for dad, it was clearly his good looks and kindness, not for his brainpower. ' (Venir)
-Alright dad. What should I do first? (Venir)
He was trying to look positively at what was to come, after all it was still a fantasy world. Even if he had to train hard he will do everything in his power to do it.

...
Under the days that went by Venir found out to his delight that the body refining technique used was something he had done since his second year.
He thought it was a way to improve is mana pool but it seems one was born with his/her mana pool set from the very beginning and it didn't expand at all over the years.
This information he got from his mother. He desperately wanted to improve his magic so he asked her for advice but in the end it was impossible to get a bigger internal mana pool.
Venir reasoned out it was most likely because his soul comes from another planet of existence it was so small from birth.
His mana pool was too small to learn any advanced spells like healing, medium and grand spells. Like throwing Fireballs and conjure lightning down from the sky's.
But the bitterness of that knowledge vanished over time. Seeing no point in worrying and telling his parents of his own self studies in magic, his many V-years spent in experimenting he kept quiet about it from them. What's the point in talking about it if he was never going to be utilize it fully?
If he couldn't improve his chant-less magic over time he might as well try something else first.
Body refining come very natural to Venir because he started so early in age. The amount godly essence/mana he could draw upon was great.
(Godly essence= mana. Will use the word mana more instead godly essence from now on.)
His body also had a lot of it he gathered over the years. While he thought he could use it to improve his own mana pool, which was wrong. He could now instead use it in the body refining technique.
It was clearly not a wasted effort, it now made it easier for him to improve faster. Venir got a little boost from thinking like that and used it to its utmost.
....
His dad told him there are several known and to him unknown stages and sub stages in the art of the sword and body refining.
First is the stage of controlling and pulling godly essence from the air and earth into oneself, then use it as fuel to build on the body when training. Like taking godly steroids.

Second stage is to start to refine the mana inside one's body. Make it purer and able to pull in more of it.
The second stage can only be used safely when the body is filled with mana and can't contain more. But refining isn't something Dan seems to know how to do himself and therefore left it out for now.
Third stage is to evolve one's body with taking in enough refined mana until one can't take in more. Same as second stage in theory but much harder.
It's an immense difference and after that you can try to reach the fourth stage but Dan don't know anything about it himself so he told Venir to concentrate on the first two stages for now. It would take him years to master just those.
These three/four sub stages compile to the first stage of body refining technique.
The first stage at sword art was the mastery of one's own speed, strength and flexibility.
Each of those where a sub skill to master the first stage in sword art. If one master all of them the power leap would be tenfold.
There are several more stages in both sword mastery and body refining, but let's leave it at that for now.
Dan is at the first stage of body refining and close to second stage. With this his wounds heal faster and his strength, speed and flexibility are being fairly inhuman in the eyes of Venir.
To add it at top of it, Dan has reached second stage in sword mastery and can therefore fight monsters with steel like skin and is famous at town for being very skilled.
....
Dan thought his son was a genius in training when he saw his son sit for hours at the backside yeard meditating.
But after having doing it for 3 years Venir found this stage pretty calming and it wasn't before now he noticed something profound about it.
Thinking back on the time when he saw the red haired girl he have always struggled to grasp his current affliction. It was simple yet very complex and hard to master.
-haha! That I didn't notice it! (Venir)
Relaxed and not thinking on anything. Just feeling the world around him, Venir started to feel a higher sense of being.
Like being one with the air and nature around him. It was at this stage when his brain took in everything and at the same time didn't concentrate on something specific, it was then time itself seems to catches up to him. In this relaxed state of mind he could see everything clearly, like he was being colorblind before, he now could see things clearly.
'Just be, don't think. See everything.' (Venir)
Unknowing Venir has reached the mental stage of a body refiner at forth sub stage. He was able to naturally refine and pull the mana inside himself as long as he was in this harmonic stage. Bypassing the other stages and combining them into on.
Thanks to his unique disability where is brain work overtime and also makes him have a hard time sleeping. Now it finally works to his advantage.
The stage wasn't complete and he often lost himself at the most small sounds. To prevent that he often sat alone and meditated before heading out to train. Unknowing to himself while sitting in a meditate position the air itself seems to vibrate around him.
'If I can master this I might be able to live normal life and become stronger at the same time.' (Venir)
Body refining. Stage 1Stage1. ControlStage2. RefineStage 3. EvolveStage 4. Alternative sub stage. One with nature.Body refining. Stage 2????????
.....
(To explain the body refinement method I tried making a table to simplify it. Hope it helps. And the forth stage is something only Venir himself invented thanks to his disablement if it wasn't obvious. I named it "One with the nature" for now.

The Lies They Told Me: Short stories from my life
Like many of my peers, I've discovered that life is not quite what I expected it to be. As I age, I've begun to find that many of the sayings and truths that my parents, authority figures, and friends have passed on to me were outright lies. Every person I know has been subject to the same interactions, which got me thinking, why not write a compilation of stores about my life experiences to date. I hope that this book will help all of us come to terms with the realities that we face today or deal with some of our deepest feelings about the past. Maybe these people lied to us and maybe they honestly believed the myriad of things they told us, but either way I think we can have a good laugh looking back and remembering the first times that we realized these things weren't true. I also hope that you can look back at the lies, or life lessons, that you've learned and can be inspried to own your stories and share them with others in a genuine way. Wiithout further ado, I hope that you enjoy the many short stories of my life that made me who I am today. These stories range from funny to down right surrel, so good luck on your journey!

Thorns of Jade [A Progression Fantasy LitRPG Adventure]
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Solo Leveling meets Chainsaw Man in this fun new LitRPG Series To become the king of Kissen, Noah Hearts trains to become the strongest swordsman in the world. The only problem — he can’t use Aura at all! Everything changes when he’s left for dead in a forest on the Kissen Fields… In a world where horrific creatures known as “demons” terrorize mankind, those who wield the mysterious force known as “aura” are the only ones who can fight them. These fighters call themselves the “Wolves of Haven”, and strive to create a world where demons no longer roam their lands! Though Noah Hearts is an exceptional swordfighter for a young man, his total inability to use aura means he could never hope to defeat the demons! Despite this major setback, he still hopes to become the king of Kissen and create a better world for those in his country! As he walks home from his daily training, his world is shifted upside down when he sees a few familiar faces in his home… This is the first draft of what I want to be a 9 volume series. I'll be editing, rewriting, and releasing the volumes on Amazon once they're finished. I'll admit, I'm finishing chapters in sprints because I want to participate in the writathon (Apr. 2022) so I apologize if there are some issues with the prose. Point them out to me and I'll fix them! Anyway, I have no backlog, but I plan on uploading chapters as I finish them. I don't want to spend weeks re-editing and never publishing like I used to, so I'm just gonna post when it's done. Like I said, this story is my take on a mix between solo leveling and chainsaw man. Specifically, the MC is the only one that can consciously level up (sort of), and the plot is fast paced and emotional just like chainsaw man. There are plenty of other inspirations, like HxH, Jojo, JJK, Cradle, and even FF6, but the first two are the biggest. Basically, if you don't like Shounen stuff, this probably isn't the story for you. Regardless, I hope you all like the story!
