Narukami turned off his ability to see one's state and Asahi's figure went back to normal. Narukami then nodded as he changed the topic.

"We should begin our training," Narukami stood as the chair gradually descended to the ground.

The three of them followed as their expression become somewhat stiff except Aya. Asahi and Ryu were nervous.

Ryu only trained a few simple things before facing that creature as the time was in pinch.

It happened a few months ago, around winter break.

Fortunately at the time. Narukami helped his training and when facing the dragon, he dealt the most damage, Ryu was kind of guilty that he was the one who got the power.

He tried to let Narukami the one who wielded it yet he rejected the offer flatly as his vampire blood simply weaken the dragon's power, making it weak and useless.

Thus, rather than let it waste. Ryu did the deed. Absorbing the dragon's power.

After few months had passed and he trained himself one to three times a weak, nothing too serious.

Additionally, he trained himself with no mentor.

This was the second time Narukami willingly train him. Recalling, Narukami's lessons were easy to understand and practice.

He believed he going to get stronger rapidly than he trained himself!

Aya stood to the side as she didn't want to get hurt by these two. As they were humans with supernatural powers, it was best to keep some distance.

"No need to be nervous," Narukami said to calm their nerves and it did work albeit slightly. Their tense shoulders loosen by quite a bit.

Narukami then explained how to use spiritual energy. By consciously feel it in one's body and control it. To feel it, one must be in a state of deep focus.

To reach such a state, one required strong rein over emotions and random, unnecessary thoughts.

Ryu had already achieved this and controlling spiritual energy didn't need much focus. 

Thanks to his fights with Anomalies, his body got used to it and so, he could effortlessly control spiritual energy.

Asahi, however, was a complete amateur, a newbie, a new guy.

After hearing he had to be in deep focus to feel and control his spiritual energy, he felt that it wasn't going to be easy.

Causing him to become slightly gloomy and dispirited as negative thoughts soon clouded him. The murmurings in his head intensified and he remained silent when this happened.

He didn't want to cause more trouble. Furthermore, the murmurings were still within his capability to endure, nothing serious yet.

"Can I do it, Narukami-san?" He asked in doubt. He didn't have much confidence in him.

"Don't worry, Asahi. Everyone has a starting point!" Ryu replied in Narukami's stead with a bright smile and Narukami nodded in agreement. 

"I also didn't have much confidence when I just started but Narukami encouraged me… I guess." When he said encouraged, he was uncertain as his brows raised and shifted his eyes to somewhere.

Though I wonder if it can be called that way. At the time, I would have liked it if he did it not too straightforwardly, Ryu lampooned silently in his heart.

Narukami's 'encouragement' was in truth: saying all the weaknesses Ryu had at the time. Narukami pressured him to the point he wanted to give up and run away.

Fortunately, a childhood friend of his consoled him and affected his final decision.

Recalling that person made Ryu slightly down.

He shook his head to focus his thoughts on something else.

Hearing that, Asahi's confidence slightly returned.

"Okay, I guess it won't hurt to try. So where do I start?" Asahi asked, a bit nervous.

"For starters, find a way to calm your mind. Either by making a gesture, eating, imagining, moving. You see, unlike ordinary people. A sorcerer's mind is rather sensitive.. When one truly focused on something to be remembered, you can easily etch it into your mind."
