The Time When Me And My Family Went To Other World

As I was attacked by Elder Brontus with his b.a.r.e fists, I started applying the Eruption around my body and some low flames started to coil around myself.

I felt a surge in energy after using it, the same lava energy that went through my veins is now pulsing through my whole body and I felt a connection developing between myself and my own equipment and they also got light tinge of red going now.

I started countering Elder Brontus after a little while, since I started to notice a pattern on his movements, whenever he swung wildly after trying to uppercut me, since I would bait him going back and looking unbalanced.

Suddenly some wings hit my back, it looks like Metania came over here.

"Hey, need any help?" I asked her, while busy with Elder Brontus trying to punch my face, I lift my shield and pierce at him with my sword.

"No!" she said, but I suddenly turn and strike at Captain Vermont, who she just parried a spear strike, I try to hit his left ribs but suddenly there is an intense light and his spear struck my sword, breaking it into pieces.

There it goes, my means of attacking.

Suddenly, I am grabbed by my waist and suddenly the world turned upside down and I blacked out.

-----

I woke up with a splash of water in my face.

"Hey, wake up, training is done already".

As I open my eyes, Ti'oh was right there looking at me, with a cold stern face.

I look around and there is only us remaining, so I ask about what happened.

"What happened Ti'oh?" I asked still dizzy with a low noise going on my ears "Is everyone all right?"

"Yes... Everything is fine, you guys lost almost at the same time, but you took longer to wake up." he said "You tried doing a crazy move against Vermont, what were you thinking then?"

"I thought it was a group exercise to train cooperation between us three, so when I heard her screaming, I thought it was towards Captain and not to me." I explained my thoughts at the time.

"Hmmm... No, it was a test to see your limits after breaking the first phase of Ki Tempering." he looked at me more relaxed now "You scared Vermont very much, Ta. That is a first in a long time, congratulations. He taught you were aiming for him, gahahaha."

I tried to get up, but my body was still dizzy from the training.

"Ti'oh, a little help here, please?" I asked unable to get up "What happened to me that I blacked out earlier?"

"It was just Brontus Horn Suplex, made you hit the ground with your head, that is quite a strong move, he uses his horn for a Suplex making almost anyone hit by it to pass out." Ti'oh explained that I just was German Suplexed by Elder Brontus, that is a tale to tell.

Ti'oh lent me his shoulder to lean on and take me back to my house.

"So, Ti'oh about the First Phase breakthrough, what is that about? Is there any other use for this acc.u.mulation? Can I use it for something else?" I asked curious about this new power welling up on me.

"To give you a detailed report of what it actually is, only a scholar from the Capital could do so, but the common knowledge is that such acc.u.mulation of Ki Energy develops any being's soul, materializing what their soul recognize as the mightiest force of Nature, in your case it looks like a weird way of Fire, on mine it was the power of Wolf's, from such believe you can develop the energy creating a Nucleus, where the excess of Ki that is not used to strengthen the body is stored, any living being can produce such Nucleus, even the beasts from the forest have the capability to develop such strength, although it is very rare indeed." he said while we were walking towards my house "The most basic use of this power is to strengthen the body and equipment with the Nature of your Nucleus, we call it the Eruption, the manifestation of these powers, the application of them depend on the user themselves, since every single Nucleus developed is unique to each soul, just as the innate Blessing each living being receives such is the gift of the World as well, many may look equal but they can develop in different ways. So it is your path to travel the way to unfold your own talents." he finished explaining, so I guess the way to use will be determined by myself and how to do it can be through self study? Develop my own Ki Tempering Method...

"Ti'oh... can one develop your own Ki Method?" I asked tentatively towards him.

"Most great Warriors do so, even some Civil Profession people did as well. Gahahahahaha" he said laughing... ouch.

"So, how do I inspect my Nucleus to understand its Nature?" I was curious.

"Only when you are dreaming on your own bed, especially after the first breakthrough." he said as matter of fact.

"All right then, let's go where my wife is." I said while we were getting close to my house with the field clear of debris.

As we got closer and closer I made so that I walked on my own, since I didn't want to make her worried about me, not to mention that I couldn't make my Ti'oh look bad or like he didn't kept his word.

He took my key and we got inside, it was still early in the evening since the training was quick today.

"Here is your husband on one piece, he is just tired from today, so don't worry too much about it." he said while leaving me on a chair on the dining room.

"Hello, honey, I love you" I said while still sitting feeling exhausted from the training, a.k.a. getting beat up. It tires someone a lot, all right?

She came in with a light meal for me.

"I know and I love you, too." she said while leaving a bowl with some meat and vegetables on a soup for me to eat.

"You gotta to take it easy, okay? You are going to be a father, okay?"

"I know, but I still need to give my best" I said while stuffing my face with such delicious soup, it is the best I ever had.

After eating the whole soup I took the broken armor from myself, put it aside to melt it into some ingots so I would have some materials to work with. Tomorrow, I will have to go towards the Smith and make some new equipment, even for everybody on the Warrior team, since they will be on the front getting work done.

Tomorrow was going to be a rough day, since a also needed to water the crops before going to smelt the materials and remake everything, these materials break a lot, tough.

I kissed my wife good night and went to sleep.

That night I had a dream where I was confronting a huge ball of light which suddenly expanded to a flame, that got farther away until it looked like a sun, then the light rays shone on me burning my skin, making it fall and then vaporizing my skeleton, turning into small particles which again combined a formed another small sun from such brilliant emissions of lights.

I woke up covered in cold sweat, but I think I understood my Nucleus, it is probably energy itself or Nuclear energy, kind of weird thinking I could become a Nuclear Warhead, walking around a small village. But to get towards such level I think I will need some heavy training.

I calmed myself and tried to sleep again, alas to be greeted by the rising sun, which means I must water my crops with the bucket I got.

I started the early watering when I noticed that both types of crops already had some small leaves sprouts flourishing from the ground, which on itself is a great thing happening. I hope before they get trampled I can harvest these beauties.

After that, I went back to my home and see if I can get some breakfast before going to the forge.

My lovely lady was waiting with a heavy breakfast ready, then we talked a little.

"Good morning the love of my life!" I said towards her, while hugging her from behind.

"Good morning, hubby, what are you doing today aside from the combat training in the evening?" she asked with a happy face.

"Some forging, what about you?" I asked her, since we had a haunting Stampede over our shoulders to deal with.

"There is some seams to make and they will try to teach me Wood Magic to deter the beasts who would come bezerk, at least to slow them down." she said not very happy about her prospects.

We ate the rest of breakfast and went towards our ways, I was carrying the armor, which for some reason was really awkward to carry around on hand, I went straight for the Smithy.

After getting there I left the rest of the armor on the floor, close to the entrance, then I found Grandpa Doh wearing his flame resistant leather apron.

"Good morning, Grandpa Doh" I greet him.

"Morning fer ya too, chap." he said appearing sleepy "Ready to do some forging?"

"Aye, sir. But if both of us use the forge it will take quite a while, right?" I asked.

"Today we are using the Earthen Flame Forge." he told me, making me raise an eyebrow inquiring about such forge "It's one of the Natural Wonders in this world. Help me lift that lid in the middle of the room, so you can see it."

We went towards the middle of the Forge, there was a heavy looking stone trap door under the rug, both grabbed and pulled it up.

It was heavy...

The room temperature rose by some degrees just by opening that door, which burst with an azure flame, it was a deep indigo color, so beautiful.

Suddenly I felt Ki surging from the flame as well, which made me wonder if I could use this flame to create and train my Ki Tempering Method.

Now let's move forward through this flame.
