Chapter 273: Ki?

\'Hmmm? Come again? I don\'t think I heard you correctly… Maybe that punch to the gut made my brain stop working too…\'

Avilia took a deep breath in his mind before repeating what she had said prior.

\'I said that he was using angel energy! That\'s why his body was also stronger than yours!\'

\'W-....wha!?\'

On the outside, Moby\'s face seemed completely relaxed being healed by one of the healer maids but in complete turmoil on the inside.

He considered and disregarded many things, including the possibility of Mason being an angel himself since Avilia would have been able to sense him prior so he narrowed it down to one conclusion.

\'So… What you\'re telling me is that the martial arts he\'s using requires angel energy from the air leftover from the great war between angels and demons and mine requires the demon energy instead?\'

\'Precisely,\' Avilia nodded, before continuing.

\'I\'m not sure how though… Maybe they managed to harness and notice the angel energy and transfer them into martial arts, or maybe there is something deeper to it… Maybe they can also use demon energy too... Right now we have no idea so I wouldn\'t worry about it too much. He said they are top-secret military styles so I doubt that you\'d find any information about them. Just try and find out what you can and keep it in mind because this all could be simple or very complex…\'

Moby inwardly nodded back to Avilia before once again being thrust into reality, seeing Jayden leaning over him with a smile and a hint of concern.

"Hey! Lord Griffith! I have a few questions to ask you… We were at the same power level but you managed to beat me in both strength and technique… Were you cheating?"

Mason smiled, knowing it was not really an accusation but more like he wanted to find the truth.

"Well kid, that was simply my Ki… It\'s a very complex topic but in simple terms: Ki is energy found all around the universe that we harness into our body granting us unbelievable strength and aids us in our techniques and movements. I believe you were also using Ki of some sort in your style but maybe you haven\'t realized it yet,"

He smiled and answered.

\'Ki? So is that what they call angel energy?\'

"Will we learn this at school? Or is this top military secret stuff?"

Mason took a small pause before he once again spoke.

"This is all stuff you learn in your second year of school so it\'s obvious you wouldn\'t know about it. But, at school, they will only teach you the BARE basics because I doubt even your teachers know much past that. All the advanced stuff are in those military scrolls that technically I\'m not allowed to share its contents with you but if you guys get good enough by the end of the year, I might bend the rules and teach you a thing or two,"

Moby did not know if that was a good thing or a bad thing. Knowing how to control angel energy… Wouldn\'t that not work? If anything it would hurt him more than it would benefit him even if it did work.

\'I say you give it a shot… With that angel blessing of yours, it might be possible. But, if it doesn\'t work, maybe try to take the teachings and use them in your demon energy instead and see if that works; I also recommend this to Jayden too. Maybe those angel styles have some secrets that not even I know considering I didn\'t know much about angel energy and so much time had passed that new things might have happened,\'

Moby took in Avilia\'s words before continuing his final two questions.

"Where did Ki originate from and how was it discovered? And how did all these top-secret military styles come about?"

"Damn, you sure do like asking a lot of questions huh? I guess it\'s only natural since you dedicated your life to martial arts and all this new information was suddenly dumped on you!"

He chuckled at himself before continuing.

"Ki was discovered around the time Alexander Davis discovered the first energy source and caused the green rain. Scientists said that the power called Ki people found had existed for many years before that happened and it was simply only just discovered and not invented by the rain,"

He took a small pause before he spoke once more.

"Now, for your second question, some of the styles were sold to the military and government by unknown sellers for a very hefty sum of money and as for the rest, the government are not disclosing the origins,"

The answers were all to be expected but that led to even more questions arriving in Moby\'s head.

"How long exactly do scientists estimate Ki first came into this world?"

"It\'s very divided, a proper way of analyzing it had yet to be created. Some estimate only 5 thousand years ago while others are saying it was all the way since the big bang considering how widespread it is around the cosmos,"

Moby inwardly sighed in disappointment.

By asking that question, he was hoping to find out when the angel-demon war started so that Avilia could estimate how long she had been asleep but he seemed to be too optimistic.

"And, I think this is my last question… You said you\'re not allowed to disclose any of the secrets you learned from these styles. So, where can you learn these styles and get a hold of some scrolls?"

"That is an excellent question! In short, you would need to join the military and climb up the ranks until you\'ve gained enough authority to get access to these scrolls. OR! And this is how I got my access— You could enter Elite school which is extremely hard but I think it\'s doable in your case."

"Elite school? I think I\'ve heard that on the news somewhere? I\'ll probably try my shot at that considering I don\'t really feel like dedicating my life to the military simply to get access to martial arts scrolls."

"I wouldn\'t worry too much about it. All you need to do is train your hardest! So, do you have any other questions?"

Moby shook his head, still on the ground being healed with the maid and Jayden looking over him quietly.

"No, that will be all. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to answer them,"

"No, no no! It\'s no problem at all! We have a long year of training ahead of us! I know you said you wanted to do your own proper training too but pop by here from time to time if you can! I\'m sure you\'ll be able to join the ranks of the Elite if you work hard enough! That goes for both of you! Now, I need to be headed to do the duties that I may or may not be late on… You can stay here for as long as you like, even sleep here too if you want! Or you can go home and Ryan can escort you there in the car, It\'s all up to you! Have a good night!"

He left in a slight panic, a gust of wind blowing from where he once stood.

"You know, that was pretty reckless of you to challenge one of the strongest people in the country like that…" Jayden\'s voice finally entered his ears for the first time after he had begun his fight.

"Well, there were no consequences and I wanted to test my limits so why not?"

*Hmph* She chuckled.

"I guess that\'s just who you are huh? Well, are you going to be staying here?"

"No. But, I\'ll be going back home… I\'ll be sure to stay with you from time to time in the future I promise…"

"Okay then… Butler, can you escort him home? I need to go take a shower and sleep… My body is killing me so I won\'t be able to come to see you off…"

Moby laughed out loud at Jayden\'s sight, holding her aching back, making her slightly pout at him before joining in later as well.

************************************

After being healed, Moby left the training arena and went to Abby once again, saying that he will be leaving for now.

She reacted just like he expected her to, keeping her distance from him yet still wishing him safe travels.

In the car, many things ran into Moby\'s mind… The past few days have been quite peaceful yet the most hectic in his entire life with all this new information and circumstances being revealed to him in such a short amount of time and all the grief that lingered in his heart…

The things he needed to worry about, discover, learn about and fix were stacking up on top of each other day by day and his mind had never felt in this much pain and stress for as long as he could remember but, he could not allow it to show on the outside.

As the leader and as the future demon lord, he needed to not panic and keep everything calm in his mind and under control.

He did not vow to do and fix everything… That was what his previous self would have said… He simply promised to fix things to the best of his abilities that would yield the best outcome.

"Thank you for the lift,"

He bowed, exiting the limousine and entered the quiet school that had no one in sight which he simply attributed it to most of them being with their families.

He reached his room and opened the door, finding Ray fast asleep, the room completely clean, no controller on the ground and only a single empty plate on the table.

Not making any sound, he hopped up on his bed at the top bunk and stared at the ceiling thinking about many things including the sad state all of his family was in.

"I hope tomorrow will be a fun day…"

He mumbled to himself with a subtle smile before finally going to sleep.
