"Alright, now focus on your Aura. Good, push and release it explosively." Netero instructed while giving an example.
Boom! A booming sound and airwaves occurred.
"With Ren, we can increase our physical strength and defense. If you want an explosive power-up, this technique is the easiest you can use, although it will drain your Aura a lot faster."
"Now I want you to push that rock while maintaining your Ren." Netero pointed to the rock in the middle of the meadow.
"Alright," Ives replied.
Biscuit followed behind, wanting to see this practice up close.
Ives touched the rock with both hands and after taking a deep breath, she saw him push it.
A distinctive dull thud was heard, indicating the rock was moving.
The first meter was pushed quite easily; in her heart, she nodded and thought that this distance was indeed within their level's scope.
Two meters, three meters, four meters, when it reached five meters, a second booming sound was heard, this one a little louder than the first.
'Last time he could push it to a distance of six meters, with that so-called Ren, can he really improve? Is ten meters achievable?' Biscuit began speculating. For her, five meters was still a level she could not pass; she knew how heavy the rock was, and what she saw now was that Ives kept pushing it; what was more impressive was that he did not break a sweat!
Boom!
When the third bang occurred, she immediately swallowed her saliva. 'No way, how much did that rock weigh when it hit the ten-meter mark again? Ten tons? Fifteen? No, it's twenty tons!' She clenches her fists.
'Is this a dream? I am not dreaming, right?' This power, was he still human? A few days ago, she was still 'on par' with him, but now she had been surpassed three times!
And he kept pushing! His speed dropped drastically when he reached fourteen meters, and he could no longer move the rock.
"That, that's twenty-eight tons!" She said in a stuttering tone. Was there a human who could push something weighing more than twenty tons? If she hadn't witnessed this with her own eyes, she would ridicule whoever claimed such an absurd thing, but now…
"Hohoho, amazing, isn't it?" Netero laughed while stroking his goatee. "There's still room for improvement. With a little bit more practice, he'll be able to break the twenty-meter mark." Of this, Netero was certain.
"Twenty meters, that means... forty... forty..." Her body was shaking; imagining someone being able to push something with such an absurd number made her shiver and get excited at the same time.
Amazed, lusting... Her desire was put aflame. You know what, she wanted this power, too! 'No, I had train now; I couldn't fall behind Ives.' If not, the distance between her and that man would grow even further!
"Master, please teach me Nen!" Biscuit turned to face her teacher, pleading with eyes full of desire.
"Hmm? That can be arranged."
