003: After meal

Before I had seen the kid eating the rabbit, I had expected him to do it enraged, or crying out of guilt. I expected him to display strong emotions. But he didn't. He just twisted its neck cleanly, and proceeded to eat. I couldn't believe it. At first,he seemed nervous, or hesitant, but after that, no emotions were displayed. He didn't tremble or shake when he killed, and he didn't show disgust to the gore. This kid had talent. Talent to become a killer. He twisted the neck of the rabbit, ending his suffering soon, and ate it. I didn't know if he twisted it due to kindness or just to avoid problems while eating, but he was still impressive. He had talent to become a killer. What kind of fighter... We would know it soon. I ordered The new guard to knock him out with somniferous gas, and then leave in the room a sword manual, and a sword for his age. Of course, to kill. In some days we will run a test. To see... How strong can he become, and how he applies the teachings of the book. I can't wait to see how he will impress me.

When he began cultivating, we were ready to try and help him, but alas, it was not needed. The child entered in meditative state in seconds, and began absorbing energy in a minute or so.

In this world, there are two kinds of energy. Elemental (fire, earth, wind, water, life darkness, light, death, and time and space, and from there, the variants born from fusing them and different ratios of elements. ), and then there is the physic energies. The basic ones are quinetical and vectorial. But he absorbed all of them. All of them were stored in his body. Me and Kuro did our best to help him refine them and now he had different energies in his body, all separated and sorted. Talking about Kuro, it seems he feels guilty about the harsh training. I also pity him, but we must hurry, and prepare him all we can. That's the only thing we can do.
