Wain looked around the house, everything was the usual, a couple of rooms, a kitchen vestibule, and a bedroom, but sothing he didn't expect to see was an underground training room.
"Well, I guess Gisle realized I was too young to sit in a chair and look at a waterwheel all day long." Wain said with a slight smile on his face as he waved his hand.
Whooooooooosh.
A massive amber shower that shone as brightly as the sun appeared before him.
"Maybe I should have spent my past soul creating skills instead of gear, but it's too late to think about that. It's ti to create my first skill." Wain muttered with a curious look before snapping his finger.
At the sa ti, the soul glowed brightly and exploded as it turned into a multitude of amber streams. It would have taken a mber of any other race days to absorb such a powerful soul, but Wain's control of energy was too good, all he needed was just a flick.
The currents slowly made their way toward Wain and he released his aura. The dark energy flows gradually beca one with the Legendary Soul as they turned into a round seal with a black lightning symbol.
Whooooosh.
When the seal was ready, it flashed and flew into Wain's chest, then on the platform in his Soul Temple appeared the sa sign that took up 1/3 of the total space.
"Three special skills is still a maximum, right?" Wain muttered with a thoughtful look, "Though... I doubt that when I reach the Fifth Chronicle they'll make sense."
[You absorbed the Legendary Soul!]
[You decided to use Legendary Soul energy to create a new skill!]
[New skill created!]
[Wrath of Heaven's Dark Thunder (Legendary Rating, Fourth Chronicle)
Use so of your energy to temporarily gain so of the power of nature. Thunderclouds will obey your commands as they are the ones to unleash their wrath upon your enemies].
"Good... Skills have fewer limitations. Hopefully, soon I'll be able to experience it and get the new Legendary Souls." Wain muttered as he headed for the stairs.
'Hey, Wain, don't be in a hurry to leave.' Gladius said suddenly.
'What is it?' Wain asked as he stopped on the first step.
'How about creating your own skill?' Gladius said in an intriguing manner.
'Hmm? I don't mind, but I don't have too much ti. I'm going with Gisle to Aurora tomorrow, can I achieve anything in a few hours?' Wain asked while in confusion.
'Look, you have two more skill slots to spare. I can teach you sothing very simple, but effective.' Gladius said in a confident voice.
"Well, since you say so, let's give it a try." Wain shrugged.
'I suggest you train in your Void. The Ice Caves or the Snow Desert would be ideal since there's plenty of room.' Gladius uttered, 'If you get the gist right away, you won't need more than two hours.'
"Huh, now you definitely have intrigued. Okay, let's do this." Wain smirked, waved his hand, and entered the spatial rift.
Ten minutes later, Wain was in the middle of a snowy wilderness. His Void grew steadily until it reached its limits, so there was nothing but snow, sand, and the occasional cactus around.
"This is the right place. Here I may not hold back." Wain uttered while looking around.
'Fine. The essence of the skill that I want to teach you is very simple. You must gather a large amount of energy at the tip of your sword and release it in an instant.' Gladius said in a serious voice.
"I see... If I apply enough power, I can cut in two even a hundred ters of ground in front of , right?" Wain muttered while holding his chin in a thoughtful manner.
'Yeah. Sothing like that. Look, you have a lot of energy, more than most, so for you, this attack will be more effective than for others. No matter how sturdy your enemy's defense, it can't stop your attack that contains all your energy in one subtle but deadly sweep.' Gladius uttered before turning from seal to sword.
Wain looked at his dark sword, at the desert, and took a deep breath.
"Well, let's try to use just a little bit of it first." Wain muttered as he released energy.
He only used 10% of his total supply, but the darkness was enough to spread dozens of ters around, which could intimidate any monster.
'I have to get it all in one spot... Damn, I didn't expect so much energy, looks like it might be harder than I thought.' Wain said inwardly, then his pupils narrowed.
Streams of aura as if hundreds of threads headed toward Gladius. They slowly absorbed into the sword as gradually a thin line of highly concentrated darkness appeared on the blade.
'Nice. That should be enough for the first ti. Now it's ti to see what this energy can do in practice.' Gladius said in a calm voice.
Wain nodded, stepped forward, and swung his sword from top to bottom. All the darkness gathered on the sword simultaneously erupted as it turned into a dark blade that sliced the ground in front of him in two. However, the blade was unstable, so the further it went the more curved the cut was.
"Damn... Maybe I have a lot of energy, but I definitely need to work on my accuracy." Wain said as he frowned.
"Don't worry. It's okay, this is the first ti you've done sothing like this, so your result is more than worthwhile. Now I'm pretty sure you can do it in two hours." Gladius said in a serious manner, "Go ahead, one more try. In one hour you should be able to use 50% of your energy and leave a cut on the ground at least 50 ters long!"
"Okay, I'm even starting to like this." Wain smirked as he prepared for his next attempt, "By the way, shouldn't I have already created a skill?"
"Huh, only when you show a decent result the skill will be created! Moreover, the better you beco at it the higher the Rating of the skill will be, so even if it's sothing simple it still has great opportunities for further growth." Gladius exclaid.
