To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 42: Abyssal Art (2)

"You want me to teach you Abyssal Art?" asked Hwang to Ars. "It's not that I don't want to teach you, but it's better for a beginner like you to study at church than to learn from a fighter."

Ars had expected that Hwang would say that.

"What is the hardest process from learning Abyssal Art, though?"

Hwang raised his right hand, as if he was touching the surrounding wind. "Being aware of the existence of low level Violet Caelum Radiation, or Abyssal Energy, or as it is more familiarly called, mana."

Hwang's right hand touched the surrounding mana directly. Latifa and Elisa who have mastered Abyssal Art can see what Hwang is doing. Likewise, Ars too -

"Wait." Hwang realized that Ars could see Abyssal Energy. "How did you do that?"

"Do what? Hm? Ooh."

Ars reflexively activated [Mana Vision]. So it instantly made Ars aware of Abyssal Energy.

Hwang approaches Ars full of questions.

"What do you want - ?!"

Hwang touched Ars's face, precisely holding the eye so that Hwang could see Ars's eyes more clearly.

That surprising act made Latifa surprised and excited, and Elisa surprised by covering her face in embarrassment.

"Your eyes have a powerful flow of energy."

In Hwang's view, Ars' two eyes radiated bright red, burning energy. Hwang can even see a shadow of a mystical creature when he looks into Ars' eyes.

"Isn't that enough!?"

Ars broke free from Hwang's grasp. Hwang's grasp was tight enough made his face hurt.

"Very well, since you have met the requirements to study Abyssal Art, I will be your teacher."

Elisa and Latifa were happy to hear that. But Ars didn't, because Hwang would definitely ask him something.

"But on one condition."

See.

"Sell all my fruit."

Ars blinked in disbelief. "What?"

"You want Ars to sell all your fruit, Sir Hwang?" asked Latifa in surprise.

"Yes, I have to keep an eye on him while practicing. Because of that, who wants to look after my goods?"

Ars remembered that he had a relationship with a merchant.

"You!"

Latifa surprised who Ars brought.

"Sell all this fruits, Lee Wai."

"You brought me here just to make me sell these fruits? After all, who is a fool selling in a quiet place like this?"

Neither Lee Wai nor Ars could control their mouths to speak more politely.

Latifa was the one to get so upset that the person she respected was being insulted like that.

"Are you a Trader?" Hwang asked Lee Wai.

"Yes, and you?"

"I am the merchant of all these fruits."

"Ooh, so, why do you want to offer me your goods?"

"I'm not offering, I'm giving all of this to you."

Ars was the most surprised at that statement. "Wait?! Then why did you sell all these fruits from the first place?!"

"That is a long story. More importantly, I don't want all this fruit to rot because I'm going to leave. So I better give it to someone else rather than abandon it."

Everyone confused at Hwang's statement.

One thing is for sure, he has handed over a tent filled with lots of fruits to someone who wants to have them.

Ars suddenly grabbed Lee Wai by the collar, then firmly said, "It's our profit for 70:30!"

"Why are you suddenly so excited?! Also, aren't you monopolizing the profits?!"

Ars doesn't care about Lee Wai's complaints. "I don't care where you sell all of this. But it's better for you to bring a box or two to sell to the Gate Village."

Ars group left Lee Wai and his right hand.

Lee Wai didn't like the treatment he received just now. "Can't you be more polite with the elders! Plus, I'm not a subordinate you can mess around with!"

Up front, Elisa has a question on Ars.

"H - hey, why did you tell him to sell those fruits to the Gate Village?"

Ars, just silent, did not answer Elisa's question.

They are already outside the station area.

Ars just get rid of several Bear Beasts around. His fighting style using a magical sword as a projectile weapon amazed the three who saw him.

Elisa's guess was right. Ars is the true leader of their party. He must have also killed Father Tree and conquered the Bull Hornet Nest raid.

Hwang has a question on Ars's fighting style. "Do you still have many copies of that legendary sword?"

"I think I still have enough for the next week."

Hwang did not question how Ars kept all those swords. But he already realized that all the swords were copies of the real thing.

"Okay, then let's just start training."

Ars and Hwang face each other.

Elisa and Latifa were quite far from the battlefield, with their respective weapons ready, if only monsters came to attack.

"It should take 3 to 6 months to master Abyssal Art. But because you have those unique eyes, and the genius I can smell from you, I think you can master Abyssal Art in a shorter amount of time. "

The biggest factor in Ars learning speed is his red eye. Everyone could see those red eyes, ordinary humans not possessed that. Those eyes hold tremendous power that no one has.

Hwang started his study.

"Abyssal Art is a form of magic use that can create [Magic Skills].

It is being called Abyssal Art because it uses a low [Violet Caelum Radiation] - or what we commonly call "mana" - as the energy of release.

This art required the user to receive [Violet Caelum Radiation] in exhalation.

The user must master [Abyssal Breathing], which is manual breathing that allows [Violet Caelum] to circulate in our body - entering through exhalation and exiting through exhalation.

Abyssal Breathing mastery depends on one's determination and capacity. "

Ars understood all the explanations that were just described. Except for one.

"Someone's capacity?"

"Low level Violet Caelum Radiation, or mana, is the key to mastering Abyssal Breathing. Your body has to accept 'mana' and get used to 'mana'. "

"If my body can't get used to it?"

"You will become infected with Abyssal Radiation if you cannot survive a greater amount of 'mana' during training."

Ars had guessed that that was the answer. But Ars did not want to think about the risk first.

Hwang reads Ars's confidence. "What makes you so confident like that?"

"Because I was born to do what I want to do."

Hwang smiled. It seemed that he did not need to provide moral support to the youth who had just become his student.
