Koha’s footsteps are light, almost hesitant, but careful. His left arm bears faint bruises and burns from earlier spells, and his forehead crystal pulses faintly, a residual echo of the battle’s energy.
Rio’s stride is wide, confident, protective. He glances at Koha with a teasing grin:34Please respect copyright.PENANAYnm2uMNrF1
“You really went all out back there… little mage. Did you enjoy scaring them half to death?”
Koha murmurs softly, voice low but determined:34Please respect copyright.PENANAT1f27wf5uL
“I… I didn’t just fight… I tried to see the flow of their energy… to understand…”
Sky stretches his lean frame, brushing back hair, smirk teasing but approving:34Please respect copyright.PENANAv9ZsFkMr3m
“You did more than just survive. You moved like the battlefield itself obeyed you. I’m impressed.”
Huo walks beside Koha, towering, but his emerald eyes are gentle as they scan for lingering injuries:34Please respect copyright.PENANAmttxMvTAZJ
“Your aura is drained, Koha. Don’t push it too far every surge takes a toll on your body and mind.”
Yin glides behind, soft robes rippling with his calming aura:34Please respect copyright.PENANAzLoGjEkvbL
“Even small mistakes can fracture control. Let’s focus on stabilization… you’ve unlocked incredible potential, Koha.”
Koha, flustered and slightly tired, murmurs as he adjusts his sleeves:34Please respect copyright.PENANAP5JXiQyFrr
“I… I want to learn more. I want to… feel it… without risking anyone.”
The team reaches the academy’s tranquil training grounds, a sunlit area surrounded by water canals and small trees. Floating stones hover quietly, waiting for use as practice platforms.
Koha sets down his ancient tome, opening to a page on forbidden elemental combinations, his eyes scanning the intricate diagrams.
Rio leans against a tree, arms crossed, observing:34Please respect copyright.PENANAbuGrydT5vF
“You’re reading again? You never stop, do you?”Koha murmurs softly, almost shyly:34Please respect copyright.PENANAyhJQiNkFxk
“Knowledge… it helps me control… my power… more precisely.”Sky crouches on a floating stone, teasing:34Please respect copyright.PENANA6LzIoMDUNj
“Careful. Don’t fry yourself before the next fight.”Huo kneels nearby, examining Koha’s posture:34Please respect copyright.PENANAqKIAR3KthI
“Your stance is improving… but subtle tremors remain. Focus on grounding your energy.”Yin hovers silently, a hand brushing Koha’s shoulder:34Please respect copyright.PENANAY4pSMo56iJ
“You can feel the flow in your veins… let it guide you gently.”
Koha nods, blinking, crystal on his forehead glinting as if resonating with his focus.
Koha places his hands over the training floor, murmuring softly:
火焔の矢 – Kasen no Ya – Fire Arrows form tiny sparks above his fingers
流水の刃 – Ryūsui no Ya – Flowing Water Blades swirl around the sparks
氷結の壁 – Hyōketsu no Kabe – Wall of Ice rises as a delicate barrier
He closes his eyes, voice low, almost dangerous:34Please respect copyright.PENANAK0QDLbniWF
“If I combine… fire, water, and ice… the flow must balance… precise…”
The small combination forms a floating crystal orb of swirling flame, water, and ice, hovering a meter above his palm.
Sky whistles softly:34Please respect copyright.PENANAV5omXaWz36
“Not bad… looks like a miniature storm.”Rio leans forward, eyebrows raised:34Please respect copyright.PENANAhBnQVlaRNk
“That’s not just power… that’s control. Koha, your focus is insane.”Huo adds, serious:34Please respect copyright.PENANA72sdPpsOAN
“Keep it stable. The energy isn’t fully tamed yet.”Yin smiles gently:34Please respect copyright.PENANA8jCC34hPUX
“Let it breathe. You can feel its rhythm…”
Koha exhales, voice firm, confident, almost commanding:34Please respect copyright.PENANAyTlgU0pdSV
“I feel it… it responds to me… now…”
He extends his left hand, and the orb crystallizes into a sharp, diamond-like shard, spinning dangerously in midair. The aura of the shard mirrors Koha’s heartbeat—pulsing violet-gold.
Rio’s eyes widen:34Please respect copyright.PENANAJFrMoNFyns
“That… that’s your own weapon?”34Please respect copyright.PENANAXe2LkJQf6N
Koha murmurs, smirk faint:34Please respect copyright.PENANAA00CybKjCA
“I… think so. It’s mine… yet alive with magic…”
Sky sets up a small mock “enemy” on a floating platform. Koha grips the diamond shard in his left hand, Rio’s sword in his right.
Koha murmurs: 烈火の盾 – Rekka no Tate – Flame Shield, forming a protective flame barrier
He spins, combining with 翼の疾走 – Tsubasa no Shissō – Winged Sprint, moving across floating platforms
The shard emits sharp energy pulses, striking the mock target with perfect precision
Sky fires a harmless 雷鳴の矢 – Raimei no Ya – Thunder Arrow for Koha to dodge.
Koha’s aura glows, voice low and powerful:34Please respect copyright.PENANAQSLipnGnoK
“I can feel every movement… every strike… every flow… controlled.”
Rio chuckles from the sidelines, teasing but impressed:34Please respect copyright.PENANA2QihgPESOa
“You’re… terrifying when you focus. Don’t think I won’t scold you later for blushing when I praise you.”
Koha glances at him, cheeks faintly pink, murmuring:34Please respect copyright.PENANAeqbcBOjfm0
“I-I’m… just… concentrating…”
Huo watches closely, hand brushing over Koha’s back to stabilize him:34Please respect copyright.PENANAM7BPj1GHjh
“You’re pushing limits, Koha. Remember, control comes first.”
Yin floats slightly behind, radiating gentle energy:34Please respect copyright.PENANAyveZmAWiLb
“Let the shard respond to you… not the other way around.”
The diamond shard spins faster, slicing harmlessly through water and wind currents, displaying Koha’s growing elemental mastery and instinctive control.
After several hours of practice, the team rests on the grass, the afternoon sun casting long shadows.
Koha opens a small notebook, jotting down combinations and elemental flows, quiet but determined
Sky lounges nearby, teasing:34Please respect copyright.PENANA0eMGwNC7Gw
“Write more notes, little mage, and soon you’ll be able to crush me with just your thoughts.”Rio smirks, brushing Koha’s hair back gently:34Please respect copyright.PENANAZyYQ2xWpjM
“Or I’ll crush you first… if you don’t focus.”
Koha blushes faintly, crystal glowing subtly:34Please respect copyright.PENANAonJM3RR3zC
“I… I’ll try… I won’t fail.”
Huo sits cross-legged, quietly observing:34Please respect copyright.PENANA9NlMHOEVui
“Your aura is stable now. Even small control exercises like this… strengthen you more than raw combat.”
Yin smiles softly:34Please respect copyright.PENANAWlCTPZfKkD
“And you’re learning to trust your instincts… not just magic. That’s important.”
Koha glances at them all, voice quiet but firm:34Please respect copyright.PENANAEq5Kc5v77r
“With all of you… I can… control it… I can become… stronger.”
As the sun dips, casting golden light across the academy:
Sky tosses a harmless arrow near Koha, who instinctively blocks with 氷結の壁 – Hyōketsu no Kabe – Wall of Ice, eyes narrowing with focus
Rio laughs, crossing his arms:34Please respect copyright.PENANAn3Laaxh22K
“You’re getting cocky, little mage. I like it.”Koha murmurs, crystal glowing faintly:34Please respect copyright.PENANA3bL4dWAJ4Z
“I… just want to understand… my own limits…”
Huo stands, hands glowing slightly, giving Koha subtle stability energy:34Please respect copyright.PENANALA0crXyHlS
“Remember, strength isn’t just power… it’s control, precision… survival.”
Yin hovers, voice soothing:34Please respect copyright.PENANAtkppMIOKGr
“And patience. All of this… patience.”
Koha closes his eyes, feeling the combined aura of his friends around him, letting it infuse his shard weapon and elemental control. The violet-gold crystal on his forehead flares faintly, indicating growing mastery.
As night falls, the team gathers near the academy dormitory, exhausted but peaceful:
Koha flips through his tome, murmuring quietly 魔力弾 – Maryoku Dan – Magic Projectile and 無限の力 – Mugen no Chikara – Infinite Power, testing visualization techniques
Sky teases: “You’re glowing… and I don’t just mean the crystal.”
Rio sits next to Koha, smirking: “Careful, little mage… if you concentrate too hard, I might have to personally check your pulse.”
Koha’s lips quiver, faint blush spreading:34Please respect copyright.PENANAFLAnLzIesV
“I… I don’t mind… your presence…”
Huo silently rests a hand on Koha’s shoulder, grounding him:34Please respect copyright.PENANACISApBHfIK
“Good… you’re growing… don’t let exhaustion break you.”
Yin adds softly:34Please respect copyright.PENANASLp6CasrMp
“Every page, every spell, every shard you form… it’s all progress. You’re not alone, Koha.”
Koha nods, looking at his crystal, glowing faintly in harmony with the group’s aura:34Please respect copyright.PENANA0nmkRDqAtg
“I… I feel… stronger… safer… with all of you.”
The team sits quietly under the stars, the calm after the storm, each member lost in their thoughts, but unified as a team.
