Short burst of light rampantly escaped Lucian's meditative form, whitish solid like thin lines of matter flew helter skelter penetrating and burning through anything it touched while looking like a blur of speed.
Meanwhile Lucian maintained his meditative stance with his eyes closed, stark naked a whitish flame burned over him burning and reconstructing his skin simultaneously.
Words couldn't explain how much pain he felt when he initially started this exercise yesterday but now it seemed he awakened a technique that made him resistant to pain.
His face looked calm contrast to what was happening around him, after everything that conspired yesterday, the death of Sasha and her cohort, Lucian decided to train his embodiments which were the closet affinities he had.
Of all the affinities which consisted of light darkness and shadow, he chose light as his first approach, although he had no books concerning abilities, techniques, skills etc he knew the light was powerful.
It was evening when he started meditating, so focusing on the retreating sun's last Ray's got him on a headstart.
Having to discard his progress a few times just because of the self burning effect the light produced but he always got back down and restarted.
That was until the night came and he couldn't find a source of light, thus his body started radiating a whitish flame which burnt his clothes leaving him naked.
By that time he was long gone into the realm of meditation and pain which miraculously disappeared deeper into the practice, subconsciously the whispers of light escaped through his lips.
His consciousness lay not with his physical form but within his soul space, he transmigrated into this space immediately the white flames caught all over his body.
In that space surreal words appeared before him, ' Child Of Light, Bless Thy Word, With Might I Heal, With Pain I Scorch, With Versatility Thy Exist. ', repeating those words for hours the light on his physical form amplified.
He meditated from the dask of the day he killed Sasha till the dawn of the day he was going to battle a juggernaut, Bradus Dean his heavy weaponry master.
* Arghhh *
He groaned standing up from the ground, changes could be seen around his entire being as he was more fresher and smooth, his tenderly hardened muscles clenched when he flexed them.
So he decided to test his new powers, concentrating his mind he stretched out his hand and willed a beam of light to come forth but minutes passed and nothing happened.
" Damn, I just wasted an entire night for this, Fuck ", he said to himself and sat back to the grass reviewing his stayed at his soul space, he didn't quite wonder about but trying to establish a connection with light but failed.
Then he remembered the saying he saw hovering above his vision, " Child Of Light, Bless Thy Word, With Might I Heal, With Pain I Scorch, With Versatility Thy Exist. ", he repeated standing to his feet.
A small mark burnt it's self into his arm showcasing five rectangular bars, { FR } similar to the bars shown to represent a phones battery percentage.
He felt a revile encouraging him to try again but this time he would attempt a different reproach, in the physics books he studied he vividly remembered the study of light which states it was fast, very fast.
So it was time for a little scientific test he got into a running stance and focused his mind on the mantra of the light and said, " Oh Child Of Light Enhance Thy Speed ", his legs immediately glowed white.
* BOOM *
With an explosive force Lucian circled the entire compound as a blur of light before eventually dropping to the ground with his legs bent at unnatural angles.
He only noticed his legs were bent unnaturally when he tried to stand, this implied that not being able to feel pain was also a curse.
Few minutes of restless waiting his leg healed it's self completely although a bit faster than it would usually have, " That's enough light " he said to himself scurrying away with his naked ass.
He dressed himself full and returned to the garden after which he prepared some white rice and vegetable soup.
If there was anything he loved it was sitting under his shade with a book and hot food right besides him, in his hands was the only book he could find on energy sources.
But it proved a little useless as it only talked about mana and Ki cultivation, as expected.
{ In conclusion the mystery of the magi world are as infinitely concerning as the existence of the magi world itself but here are a little of things that very little light had been shone upon.
< 1 > The existence of beings that by far surpass the mortal realm
< 2 > The Existence of other energy pathways such as thus Qi, Chi, Mantra, 力 Chikara, Duo etc.
< 3 > It's stated that any creature using any of the said energy pathway is not human and initially seem weak, if encountered kill on sight. }
This was enough to pique Lucian's curiosity, the system originally mentioned him as belonging to a race of Embodied Immortals, from the name he was getting really powerful vibes.
Finishing his meal he went into his house and dropped the plate in a stainless steel washbasin, he walked to his room with was a passage away.
Opening his door he was greeted by a long strand of nearly invisible thread, he saw it because he could now see things that were barely visible in light.
He touched the thread which was a web from the silk spider, it was really stretchy and surprisingly durable, a plan soon formed in his dark mind as a scene was put to play.
Grabbing all the weapons he had in his arsenal, he found more of those threads and went to work, a work that might save his life.

Wind slowly blew through the pages of the a fantasy book turning the pages for Lucian, " Annoying mid-afternoon wind " he cussed allowed.
* Crank * Crank * Doom * Doom *
The mechanic sound of his gargantuan prison door been opened resounded though Lucian's ear infuriating him but he had to keep himself calm for his plan to work.
A plan to Outwit A Brute.
