The Crystals - 29 The next phrase of lazuli's training
After two weeks, Zohaifa called Lazuli to the backyard. Lazuli went there and asked, “What happened? Didn’t I tell you to keep trying until you felt your aura?”
Suddenly, she felt a small amount of aura being dripped and mixed with hers. She noticed Zohaifa smiling at her after that. It must’ve been shot at her by him.
“So, you pulled it off,” she said.
‘Yellow splash!’ threw Marium at the backyard. But it wasn’t yellow splash at all. It was merely a plasma shot. But at least she got the feeling of how the aura is manipulated to create plasma.
“Good job Marium,” she proudly told staring her and added, “Just as expected of my daughter.”
“What now?” asked Zohaifa.
“Now, you need to rush to reach Marium’s level. She has already got a taste of how plasma feels within two weeks. But you need a different treatment,” said Marium
“What?” asked Zohaifa
“You need to be exposed to plasma every day,” said Lazuli.
“And how do I do that? Go to the sun?” asked Zohaifa.
She pointed at Marium. “She will stop training for the yellow splash for a bit. For now, she will concentrate on strengthening her plasma skills. Basically, she will shoot plasma at you.”
“What? This is nonsense. I will die!” exclaimed Zohiafa
“Do you take me to be that stupid? Plasma created from aura won’t necessarily resemble real plasma. With Marium, it seems weaker. With other people, it might even get stronger. Besides, one reason I could create liquid Plasma is that it is not 100% similar to real plasma. It applies to every other element too.”
“But why do I need this special treatment? Marium could do it as a child. Couldn’t she?”
“Don’t be stupid? Marium has my genes. She is an extraordinary genius. There is no way you could topple her. Think about it. She created plasma only through guessing. To be honest, I also thought I would need to give her the extra treatment as she wouldn’t be able to do it.”
“Didn’t she say just a minute ago that she expected this from her daughter?” Zohaifa thought to himself
“Besides plasma has a close connection to light if you ever read science,” added Lazuli annoyingly.
“I am a student of science,” protested Zohaifa
Thus the new training program began. Every morning they would do what they usually do. But instead of the previously prescribed training, Marium throws plasma at Zohaifa.
Needless to say it is impossible that the morning training this time would last less because of Marium’s sympathy and the demanding, risky nature of this training. Zohaifa no more felt hesitant to refuse to play with Marium after launch. His body is sore all over.
He also remained defensive in the sparring session. If by chance, he was hit, he would scream out in pain which annoyed Lazuli a lot.
On the 6th day of this new regimen, Zohaifa approached Lazuli looking like a Zombie and told Lazuli that he needed a break and he would not spar this afternoon. Lazuli agreed and felt hesitation inside: ‘Is this the logical approach?’
