"Well, I'm glad to be of help." Kye smiled back. "Now I guess I'll leave you alone so that you can train."
"Huh? You don't want to stay and watch me?"
"I do want to watch you train and train myself at the same time, but I don't want to make you uncomfortable..."
Ven looked his friend in the eyes for a few seconds before answering. "It's okay, you can stay."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, you're the one who gave me the ideas, so it's the least I can do, right?" He turned his head to the side so that Kye couldn't see his expression.
And seeing that, Kye chuckled and accepted to stay.
And so began Ven's training.
He first tried to do Kye's first idea, but it seemed harder than it looked. It was easy to press gravity upon someone so that they will be crushed by their own increased weighed, but it was a lot harder to use gravity on the sides or upward. But Ven felt so happy that things could go well later that he didn't even think for a second about his failure.
He then tried Kye's second idea. And this one was... impossible, to say the least. Ven's control over gravity was good, but not good enough to create a gravity ball that would bend everything around it. So he assumed that he first needed to know how to attract or repulse someone with his gravity so that he will gain some understanding of his ability, before trying to do this second move.
And since Ven trained for several hours, Kye didn't only watch him. He decided to train his cosmic ability as well. And obviously, since he couldn't last long when he was using it, he decided to try and increase his energy.
Since he got his ability, Kye managed to increase it only once, going from 100 to 150. He was happy from the boost, but it still wasn't much. And it increased when he was resting after having used all of his energy a few days ago. So he guessed that he needed to use his ability as much as possible to increase it, but it seems way too slow of a way, so today, he decided to meditate like he was doing with Ras to control his holy energy back then.
p He sat on the ground and took a lotus position. He then started to focus on his energy and tried to control it inside of his body.
However, he didn't expect it to move so freely. It was so easy that it even seemed strange. And since it was easy, he didn't expect his energy to increase by the slightest. So he tried to move the ability outside of his body, and that's when he met difficulties.
His cosmic energy stopped just before coming out from his body. Even after so many tries, Kye couldn't make it came out, so he gave up after an unknown amount of time.
And since he didn't have anything else to do, he started to meditate and focused on his energy to try and expand it.
He didn't move it. He just tried to make it larger, bigger, and wider. It was hard, but he had the impression that he was getting somewhere.
He continued like this for a few hours, and when he opened his eyes, he was greeted by the system's windows.
[Your understanding of your cosmic ability has increased]

[Energy: 250/250]
"Yes, I did it!" Kye shouted in excitement before feeling falling backward from the exhaustion.
He didn't notice it earlier since he was too focused on the system, but he was drenched in sweat, his breathing was rough and heavy, and his body felt sore all over. 'Seems like I overtrained.'
He thought as he tried to move his head around to find Ven, only to find him still training. He too was drenched in sweat. So much so that his body was visible under his wet clothes. And seeing him train so hard, Kye smiled.
'Seems like he had better stamina than me. Should I improve it as well? I have 8 free stats to distribute, after all.' This thought crosses his head, but he quickly shrugs it away. He wanted to use them when he really needed them, not now just because of his competitive spirit.
So he closed his eyes to rest, and slowly fell asleep.
***
When he woke up, Kye could feel like he was getting carried by someone. He could feel someone's back on his head and jumping on his back every time the one who was carrying him took a step forward.
"Are you awake?"
"Is this you, Ven?" Kye asked after recognizing his voice.
"Yeah, it's me. Why did you fall asleep? You should've gone back if you were sleepy. Or did you want to watch me that bad?"
He sneered when he asked that, but the answer he got was quite serious.
"I got motivated when I watch you train so hard, so I decided to train as well. But I slept from exhaustion. I'm sorry."
Ven didn't say anything for a few seconds. He didn't expect Kye to apologize. So he now understood that he was probably as hurt as him after how he acted for the past few months.
"What are you apologizing for? It's not as if you did something bad."
"Yeah, but I kept bothering you. I know that you don't want to hang out with me anymore, but I'm still going toward you and bothering you. Even now, you're carrying me, so you must be angry with me. I'm sorry."
He hide his face on Ven's back, and the latter could feel his back slowly getting wet again.
"Wait you're crying?" When he didn't hear any answer, he put Kye down and looked at his face.
Well, it would be better to say that he tried, since the moment he was put down, Kye entered their dorm room, leaving Ven in front of it, baffled by what had just happened
