6 I'm Jealous!

Jono then began sitting cross-legged. He began to release his magic energy and gain control of it. He then attempted to activate his super ability. His super ability was connected to magic energy. Normally, the effects of one's super abilities would manifest in this manner, but Jono's situation was different. He had not seen any supernatural effects appear.

After waiting for a while, no visible effects appear. There was no effect on the four basirs as well, after Jono connected his magic energy to them. He then attempted to connect his magic energy with the bamen and was surprised when the bamen reacted to his magic energy. Jono was ecstatic, and he kept connecting magical energy to all the bamens while activating his super abilities.

"Finally, there is an effect that appears," he exclaimed happily.

Jono is overjoyed right now; he keeps activating his super ability to see what effect it will have. After about five minutes, all the bamens melted and merged into one. After ten minutes, all the bamens were joined together, and the combination was now round like a volleyball.

Jono kept activating his super ability to see what effect it had, but after an hour of training, he ran out of magic energy. The combination of the bamens was still shaped like a multicolored volleyball lying on the floor. Jono took the volleyball-shaped object and tried various actions such as stroking, hitting, etc., but nothing happened. It was just like an ordinary big bamen.

Jono was still sitting cross-legged, but at the moment, he wasn't releasing any magic energy. He looked into his Abs-space. When he activated his super ability, which had an effect on bamen, his Abs reacted a little. In his mind, or more precisely, in his Abs-space, Jono understands more about his super abilities than ever before. He has additional knowledge that his super ability is indeed a unique ability.

This knowledge he got after focusing his mind into his Abs-space, and then he obtained like a sort of memory that had been lost but was recalled. This memory is about his super ability.

There are hints in memory fragments about his super abilities that his super abilities are related to making puppets. From this, Jono deduced that the next step was to figure out how to make a puppet out of the large bamen that had fused with his super ability earlier.

However, this newly revealed memory of his super ability is only a fraction of what his super ability should be able to do. He believes that as he progresses in using his super abilities again, new memories of his super abilities will appear in his brain.

He has read a lot of information about it on the internet. Many people have also experienced this. Furthermore, there were many subjects in middle school that touched on fundamental concepts about super abilities. They commonly referred to the emergence of memories of super abilities as super ability insight or super ability enlightenment.

"Hehehe, finally, there's a clear clue about my super ability, very clear in fact," he said with a small laugh.

Jono is overjoyed with his new discovery, and he plans to use his super ability again once he has replenished his magic energy.

Jono then searched the internet for information on how to make puppets. He resumed his rest after completing his research on how to make puppets.

After two hours of resting while doing breathing techniques to accelerate refining magic energy, Jono resumed training using his magic energy. Jono then activates his super ability and begins to direct his magical energy toward the volleyball-shaped bamen. The bamen continues to react, but it is a minor reaction.

He tries various ways to further explore his super abilities until, ten minutes later, he tries to touch the bamen and he is surprised. The bamen is initially hard, but now, under the influence of his super ability, it softens to the consistency of clay. Jono then tried to squeeze the bamen. He also attempted to split the ball bamen into several pieces, but the bamen fused back together.

Then Jono tried changing the shape of the bamen to another shape, such as a box shape, but the result remained the same. The shape he made transformed back into a ball. He then transformed the bamen into a fighting helmet. Despite Jono's stiff hands, the bamen changed shape according to what Jono thought, and a head helmet was formed, but not long after that, the head helmet returned to a ball. Until now, he has been perplexed about his super ability and whether it can create magical items, but he denies this because the items he created returned to the form of a ball.

Then Jono tried various objects, which eventually returned to the shape of a ball. This fact irritated him a little. He tried many times, and after many trials, his face brightened again, because the shapes he created did not return to the shape of a ball, but instead remained as what he desired; it was a snake. He then tried different forms, such as birds, worms, insects, flowers, and many others, until he realized that he could only create shapes that depicted living things rather than inanimate objects.

"Did I become an artist, like a sculptor?" he wondered.

An hour later, Jono's magic energy ran out, and the bamen transformed into the final form of what he desired, an ape. He had no idea it was three o'clock in the afternoon. Jono then went to his living room to rest on his dark brown sofa. It exhausted him after hours of training in the gym.

"Can this be called a basir?" he wondered as he held the ape-like puppet. A basir is a bamen with a unique art or shape. While thinking about that, it wasn't long before Jono fell asleep.

He dozed off on the couch for two hours. He awoke at five o'clock in the afternoon and went straight to the bathroom to shower because he smelled his body, which was quite stinky with sweat.

Jono rested for a while after taking a bath before preparing a simple meal. He was starving right now. This time, Jono made an omelet and ate it with rice.

After eating, he returned to practicing again after a quick break. "Time to practice," he said, smiling. It still overjoyed him, after making such significant progress in comprehending his super abilities.

Jono worked out until ten o'clock at night. Jono gave up on his training, which had made no significant progress until this evening, and took another shower before finally falling asleep.

"Made happy at the beginning, disappointed again at the end," he said before falling asleep.

The next morning, at nine o'clock, Jono went out for breakfast. He stopped at a food stall not too far from where he lived. The food stall has a special menu of chicken soup. He then ordered a medium-sized chicken soup and a glass of iced tea. Almost all the tables provided at the soup stall were full. He looked at the surrounding people curiously.

"I think the food here is quite famous," Jono observed as he looked around.

Then, Jono's attention was drawn to something that piqued his interest. Jono noticed a teenager who was the same age as him having breakfast. What made him interested was that the teenager was eating while playing with the paper airplane that kept spinning around him. The teenager has super abilities related to the air element, such as controlling the flow of air or wind. It impressed him to see that the teenager can use his super ability casually.

"He was probably an elemental controller who specialized in the air element."

"If only I could master my super ability better, maybe I'd play like that," Jono said softly.

After that, he looked around him and it made him sadder. It turned out that there were many people around him who used their super abilities to carry out daily activities, and quite a lot were using their super abilities just to show off.

"Even though the government has said not to use super abilities arbitrarily in public, there are still many who do it," said Jono, looking at other people's behaviors with a bit of jealousy.

"I also want to show off my super abilities!" he said in his heart.

A person may use his super abilities in public as long as it is not to harm another person. If someone misuses their super ability, it is a criminal act. Even so, there are still many people who violate this rule, because not every corner of the city can be monitored by the police or local security officers.

Jono immediately ate the food he ordered after it arrived. He wanted to get home as soon as possible because he couldn't stand all the teenagers his age flaunting their super abilities.

"I'm jealous!" he screamed in his mind as he ate quickly.
