Chapter 544 [Bonus chapter]How to start.
Although understanding the effect of gravity on space was important, it still felt kind of abstract so he tried bringing everything down to earth by relating it with his current skills.
With the concept of space being a platform for all existence, the Locator spell was a way to track everything within the platform, meaning that nothing could be hidden in space.
The process of teleportation was basically leaving the platform and entering the void, before folding the platform like a piece of paper and instantly moving to the targeted location. Of course, this required the Locator spell to find the exact coordinates and not get lost in the void.
As for Telekinesis, it involved gravity which was basically the control of things that existed on the platform of existence.
After looking at all these, Blake realized that they all had something in common, control.
The space element was basically the control of existence, that was why it was the strongest pathway.
Immediately he realized it, Blake felt the connection between his mind and his stars deepen, but it still didn’t mean that he had broken into the peak of the Hero realm.
Now that he had understood the concept of his 3 pathways, it was time to practice these concepts and make them part of him. Only after that would he break into the peak of the Hero realm.
The minor breakthrough raised Blake’s mood, but it was soon spoilt when he was informed that he would have to appear in court to testify his own side of the story.
The argument that was made was that Lieutenant Colonel Gunnar and his entire family were currently under investigation to uncover reasons why someone would assassinate him, and also if Blake was somehow involved in it.
Normally, this would be immediately ruled out by the court and Blake would be set free, but since this was a matter of national security and the time of the murder was less than 2 weeks ago; the court had to reconsider.
The next court case was adjourned to 2 and a half months, in order to give the ash corps enough time to properly investigate the case.
The good thing about this was that the case was not public so his reputation was still intact, but the problem here was that 2 and a half months was a very long time for someone like Blake who was trying to return to Earth as soon as possible. .
The worst part of the entire situation was that he was pretty sure that the next sitting wouldn’t be the last meaning more time would be wasted.
At the same time, 4 of the ancestral families sent out members of their families as well as different artifacts to help solve the case.
Unlike the ash corps that comprised mostly relatively low-ranked officers, the descendants of the ancestral families were at least at the peak of the Hero realm, thus, reducing the rate of inaccuracy.
The reason Prince Bryon had proposed sending them to handle the case was that if it was left to the Ash corps the case wouldn’t be solved at all. So although this decision could lead to more complications it was the best.
Besides, the best-case scenario was that they would actually find information about the real killer, while the worst-case scenario was that some of them planted incriminating information against Blake, but that was why he had tasked people to prevent this.
…
During this period of investigation, Blake was using the opportunity to inculcate the concepts of the 3 elements into his fighting style.
Thankfully since he was only detained, Blake was allowed to keep training because they couldn’t let the skills of a Major stagnate.
Spending most of his time in the training ground, Blake only returned to his cell when he was out of mana, time to eat or sleep.
Since his fighting style heavily relied on the sharpness of Ebony and Ivory, Blake had used been using his 2 elements primarily for support. That was why he was now focused on the offensive sides of the element.
He began training the fire element for AOE attacks in case he was facing a lot of people, and also for knockback attacks to create distance between him and his opponent.
In the case of the lightning element, its main aim was penetrative attacks and kiting, but because nothing could beat the penetrative power of Ebony and Ivory he had been using it only for the kitting part.
By understanding the concept of the lightning element, Blake became more risk-taking especially since he had Lightning Morph that could save him from sticky situations.
As for the space element, Blake didn’t have much to change about it. All he did was increase the fluency of the combinations of the space element and the other 2 to give him more control over fights and make his attacks more unpredictable.
…
After a month and a half of nothing but training, Blake finally had a major breakthrough. He had broken into the peak of the Hero realm.
Not only did his control over the 3 elements become more refined, but both his mana capacity and power out his elements had greatly increased.
“All that is left now is to discover my test for advancement and figure out how to solve it, but that is e easier said than done.” Blake shook his head as he let out a helpless sigh because it would have been easier for him to solve this task if he had not been detained.
Since he had nothing else to do, the next thing Blake began looking into was the theory behind pronouncements, one of Demigods’ main abilities.
He formed this theory after seeing Colonel Darius easily control all elements with only his thoughts. So by stepping it down, it was safe to say that this was the foundation of demigods and their pronouncements.
If he was correct, this would give him a head start once he entered the Demigod realm, and since there was no risk involved there was no harm in trying.
The question now was how should he start?
