THE STRONGEST NEXULYTE

(Announcement: so I've received a message from a reader that the current training arc is becoming too boring and long so I'll be speeding things up a bit and skipping some stuff that I was supposed to write, be sure to ask anything that you're confused about in the comment section and I'll reply with an explanation)

After Ivan left the lobby with instructor Logan, the trainees were dispersed by instructor Nathan while Ivan followed instructor Logan to an elevator that took them up.

They traveled for a minute on the elevator until finally reaching the highest floor of the tower, Ivan was led to one of the rooms which turned out to be the office of the tower master.

They entered without knocking and Ivan saw James sitting behind a large office table, an enormous glass window behind him that displayed the view of a forest.

"I've passed the information as instructed by tower master" instructor Logan said respectfully while giving a slight bow.

"Good morning tower master" Ivan greeted while bowing his head as well.

James raised his head to locate the two, he nodded at Logan for him to excuse them. Only after the buffed instructor had left them did he turn to Ivan.

"Hello Ivan, it's been a while since I saw you. You've changed…in a good way" James said to Ivan, a warm smile glued to his face.

" It's all thanks to the training I have received " Ivan replied calmly, his voice wasn't as warm as James had hoped for.

James stared at the white haired youth for a few seconds as the warm smile slowly vanished from his face and was replaced with serious expression.

" I don't want to waste your time so I'll go straight to the point, you've heard what your instructor announced this morning. You should already know that your training routine will be different from now on compared to last month. This is what I want to discuss with you…

Your talent " James muttered and Ivan's face immediately turned stern at the mention of his talent. For the past one month he had kept his talent hidden even when other trainees were already able to use theirs.

And the reason for this was…quite embarrassing. It was because he did not know how to use his talent.

"Your talent…is a special type without any information about its specialty. So for the following month when you have talent training, you'll come to me so I can help study it with you.

You can also check the library in case you notice certain things that you do not wish to reveal, but know that I'm trying to help you so telling me everything about your talent will help a lot"

" I understand " was all Ivan responded with.

His casual response left James stunned for a while but he quickly recovered and added.

"And about the Nexus chamber, you can go there as long as you complete combat training and combat training. You can skip everything else but I advise you not to get too engrossed in it because it can affect your absorbing speed outside the Nexus chamber. Going to the training room will help you prepare for after the three months grace I gave you "

Ivan still said nothing and continued to stare at James as he spoke.

" That's all, you may leave now" James said while letting out a sigh, he could see that Ivan wasn't interested in chatting.

Ivan bowed and left the office, after he left a figure silently appeared in a corner of the office.

James immediately stood up from his chair and stood to the side respectfully, this figure was none other than Karl Owen, the founder of the Owen Tower.

" Interesting, after seeing him in person, I must admit that he does resemble him a bit. He did not even ask why he was given first place which shows that he is confident of being able to hold his position when the time comes.

Confident, talented, and a calm demeanor, fitting for a genius. Getting to the Saint rank should not be too difficult for him" Karl said while stroking his long white beard.

" Did you find anything about his talent, father?" James asked.

Karl stopped stroking his beard, he placed both hands behind his back and walked to stand in front of the huge glass window.

"None of the books mentioned anything about a wisher talent or Primal Talent, I did find a few talents related to cards but they were either under the support type or combat type. We'll need to see him use his talent to know more" Karl said, he thought for a while before continuing.

" I'll be going now, a strange monster had appeared near our tower in the dreamscape so I want to go take a look "

" Is it that monster you have been researching about? " James asked solemnly.

Karl's face instantly turned tense and his eyes shook with nervousness.

" Hopefully it isn't that monster, it might be the end if such a monster decides to cause trouble " he managed to say after a while of silence. He didn't wait for what James had to say next before disappearing from the office.

Meanwhile, Ivan had returned to his room. There was still some time before 7 am, he had nothing to do before then.

Ivan took his bath to wash off the sweats and changed into a new set of purple tracksuit, he climbed onto his bed and laid on his back with one of his hands behind his head and his other hand raised high enough for him to see it above his stomach.

Nexus energy slowly began to gather above his palm before condensing into a single blue card with golden edges, the card remained suspended in the air for a brief moment before Ivan grabbed it.

He stared at the card, observing its back and front but he could see nothing different from what he had already seen before.

"Be careful what you wish for" Ivan mumbled the words on the front of the card.

"Just how the hell do I use this thing?" He hissed in exasperation, this was a side of his that Ivan never showed to anyone; not even his only friends have seen him like this.

Others might think that Ivan was a monster and was progressing quickly, but no one knew just how frustrated he was over not being able to use his talent!

No matter what he tried, the damned card would remain a card!
