God of Tricksters

Chapter 302 - Five Aspects Part 1

Tomorrow, Alea and the others went to the tournament to see the match while Theo waited in the hospital alone.

Theo sat on the bed while putting a piece of paper on top of his hand.

Suddenly, the paper began to float staggeringly as if there was a fan on top of Theo's hand, blowing the paper upward.

"This is the Control that I need… No, Nella is far stronger than this, so I need to practice more. Despite understanding how it works, I can't really replicate her power without enough practice." Theo shook his head in disappointment before Nella suddenly opened the door.

"I heard that, Theo!"

"Why are you here?" Theo facepalmed.

"This is the only time you are alone, so I can talk to you a little bit." Nella stuck her tongue out.

"You are not watching the match. Is this even more important than the match?"

"Don't you want to know the secret of my power?"

"Are you gonna tell me your secret?"

"Of course. Now that we are not enemies anymore, I will tell you everything. Of course, today is only for this one."

Theo thought for a moment and asked, "Why? I don't see the reason…"

"This is purely my will. I admire you because you have been living alone for so long without any love or support from your surroundings." Nella smiled. "In fact, win or lose, I have already planned to tell you the secret."

"…" Theo frowned and asked, "Aren't you afraid of me? I mean, you have been very polite to me this whole time, so it must be because of our status, correct?"

"To be honest, I don't really care about this position. If you want it, I will just give it to you. It's more or less an obligation or a simple wish. That's all." Nella chuckled. "Also, I want to warn you to not replicate that power if you don't want to get entangled with this family."

"Ho?"

"To be honest, I am happy if you want, but I don't wish to force you. I am going to tell you about this first, so you can understand what I'm implying."

"Please." Theo nodded and pointed to the chair next to his bed.

However, Nella brazenly sat on his bed and made herself comfortable there.

"Releasing and controlling your Magic Power at the same time is a technique that everyone can practice. However, if you understand the power of Twister or Induction Fist, you will notice a difference between the normal Control and Magic Saint Fist Style's Control.

"The latter is the combination of Breathing and Control."

"The combination of Breathing and Control?" Theo frowned and tried to understand what she said.

"Yes. To be fair, it's hard for someone to master two Aspects at the same time. Rather than learning both aspects, it's better for us to master one Aspect. That's true, but we can't really avoid learning the other four.

"Because all of them are actually connected to each other." She smiled and raised her hand. She took a deep breath before releasing in one go, creating a small shock wave on top of her hand. "Can you spot the difference?"

"I see. When I release my power, it doesn't have a certain rhythm that gives it such explosive power." Theo nodded with a serious expression.

"Exactly. This rhythm is gained from the Breathing Technique… Of course, Griffith Family's Breathing Technique." She smiled. "I would be lying if I am not sad when you don't go to the UK after this, but I will respect your decision. I will give you a simple hint for each country that you may want to visit in the future.

"Currently, the leading country which excels in Awareness is Italy, AKA this country. You will find many people who understand more than other people in the world like Enrica. As for Breathing, there are three countries. They are Indonesia, China, and India.

"Aside from our family, you can go to Russia or America to learn Control. Japan, Egypt, and France are known for their mastery of Technique. Last but not least, Endurance. You can go to Kongo, China, or America.

"Of course, aside from five aspects, there are many things you need to explore. The US is the primary example. You see their weaponry? It's good to buy some of them when you visit there."

Theo thought for a moment. "I can understand what you mean by leading countries, but I don't even know what path I should take. I mean, I don't have enough understanding of each path."

"You can try all of them first before deciding."

"Can you tell me a bit about them?"

"You mean the advanced skill?" She thought for a moment and nodded. "Let me start from my own specialty, Control. I'm sure that you are already aware of my technique, so I will give you an example of the next stage.

"This is still in training, but…" She raised her palm and released her Magic Power. A golden light suddenly appeared on top of her palm and gradually changed its shape to that of a knife.

However, it disappeared when it was only half done. Nella clicked her tongue and sighed. "This is Control called Materialization."

"Materialization? Normally, we can't see the Magic Power, but that one…"

"Yes. It's Magic Power. When you are concentrating the Magic Power on a single point, you can materialize them. This power requires Master Level Force Control or above. As for its power… I can create the same amount of power as my B Rank Skill, Mana Concentration Bomb."

"That powerful?" Theo widened his eyes in surprise.

"Yes. I can see that your Control is at the peak of Beginner Level. I'm sure you only need a few weeks to reach Practitioner Level like me. That's why while you are at it, you need to master External Flow which is the technique name of what you're doing."

"External Flow…" Theo looked at his hand and tried to release the Magic Power again.

"That's right. Releasing a powerful amount of Magic Power is an application of Force Control's Concept." She paused for a moment. "Moving on to the other Aspects."
