Chapter 85 Chapter 84 – Harnessing Power

The night had passed, and we had been given a place to sleep. Most of my students were in the same state as the tribe members; they were currently wondering what was happening.

“What’s the training that they were talking about, and why do you need to train? Is everything they said really true?” Ariel asked right away.

“Yes. I believe everything they said was true. As for why I need training, isn’t it obvious? I need to become stronger. Didn’t you hear I’m barely as powerful as their least powerful members?”

“But you’re the strongest person I’ve ever seen in my life!” All of my students said at the same time.

I shook my head. “You guys are simply ignorant of more powerful beings. I’m just a small fish in a pond, and I need to become stronger to save the girl currently dying inside the chief’s house.”

Everyone frowned at those words. “Are you talking about that girl Phoebe they kept referring to?”

I nodded quietly. “Anyway, this training will be extremely valuable for all of you. They are immortals, and the amount of training they have gone through will be very important for each of you to obtain. So endure it just like I will, you must.”

Everyone nodded as they could only imagine what the training would be.

Most of them had flashbacks of the tests I had made them go through to make their custom curriculum. They hadn’t been that hard, to be honest. Most of them were just drama queens.

“Will it be harder than your training?”

“Yes. Without a doubt. If they want to make me stronger, then they will have to make the training extremely hard on everyone, including you all. However, I still think this is a good opportunity to see what true training is like, and I hope it will help all of you in the future.”

All of them nodded their heads up and down.

“Rest well. It will start tomorrow, and I can only guess what will be waiting for us.”

The next day came by quickly, and things started right away. A strong voice woke all of us right away.

“WAKE UP!”

It was Zoe, the girl from yesterday, who woke us up. She was the only one present from the looks of it.

Quickly enough, we all got ready for the training in less than five minutes and got out of bed. Explore more stories with empire

Once we arrived outside, there was nothing except Zoe standing before us.

“As I said yesterday, your bodies are weak. You need to strengthen it. All of you will do push-ups until you pass out.”

With those words, I was the first one to start doing push-ups, and my students quickly did the same thing.

A day passed, and I was now the only one doing push-ups. The rest of my students were just sleeping on the ground out of exhaustion. However, I wasn’t anywhere close to stopping this right here. I could still go for a long time.

“You can stop. Now that they are asleep, it’s time to start your real training. You will learn of the martial arts of our tribe. Our chief told us that you are a special being capable of harnessing the powers of all existing races, even demons. Your training will be simple. You will have to harness the special power that the tribe possesses.”

I frowned as I stopped doing push-ups. ‘The power of their tribe? I knew that their bodies were clearly superior to any other humans I had seen in the past, and I thought this was their power.’

“What is it, the power of your tribe?”

“Future sight. We are able to glimpse into the future. Obviously, the chief is on another level compared to us since God enhances his powers in exchange for his physical abilities. However, all of us are able to glance into the future a few seconds into the future, which can give us a great advantage in our fights.”

I nodded. This was certainly true. Being able to anticipate the movements of your opponent in real-time would make things a lot easier. This power of theirs was definitely the reason why they were so powerful.

“Interesting, and how am I supposed to learn of this power? How do you call upon it?”

She laughed as if it was the most simple thing in the world. “You will have to contact our God and convince him to let you access that power. After all, this is how we acquired it, and I do not have any other methods. Considering your strange body, I think that our God could be interested in you without a doubt.”

“There’s no other method?” I asked as this wasn’t how I had learned how to harness the powers of the different races. “Are you sure?”

She sighed. “I have no idea. It’s my first time teaching anyone, but as far as I know, this is the only way.”

“What did Zale say?”

“He decided to let me figure it out on my own for some reason. Anyway, I think you need to call our God so that he will help you in your quest.”

“Do you think he will ask for something in exchange for me receiving his powers?” I asked, worried because of everything that had happened to this tribe.

“Yes. He will make a request. It will be up to you to decide whether it is worth it or not, just like we did in the past.”

“I see, so how do we call this God. I want to have a little conversation with him.”

Zoe shrugged. “Just make the intent of contacting him clear, and he will appear.”

I nodded as I sat on the ground, closing my eyes and repeating over and over in my mind that I wanted to meet him.

One minute passed, and nothing happened. However, I continued.

The second minute passed, and doubt started appearing in my mind.

The third one passed, and I didn’t believe that I would be able to meet with that God.

However, just as I was about to lose all hope. I felt my soul being pulled away from my body into the distance. It seemed that God wanted to have a talk with me.

This was going to be the first time that I would be talking with a God! I wonder if they’re like us, or just dicks in general…
