New Age Of Summoners

In a cave, a 12 to 13 year old boy was meditating inside a circle. His body was surrounded by small particles of different colours which were shining like stars. Occasionally, his face formed a frown as though he was missing something in his meditation.

He was none other than Ajax, who was currently ten years old. Due to his daily training, he looked like a 12 -13 year old boy.

”As expected of ’their’ child, only ten years old and he is very close to differentiate the energies around him” outside the circle, an old man dressed in white robe thought silently to himself.

Elder Boron increased his training from the last four years by giving him an additional 17 different postures. With the one he was given earlier, he now had 18 postures. In the beginning, he did not feel any strain, but when they were combined, it was highly influential on his body.

The most important thing was that his body force had reached the 800 jin mark, which was remarkably close to 1000 jin. Apart from postures, every month, he would come to the cave to meditate inside the spirit gathering circle.

”I think within 2-3 months, I can differentiate between these energies. Also, Elder Boron said that he would say something important to me when I differentiate between these energies”, Ajax thought to himself when he sensed the energies around him which were starting to disappear.

As Ajax opened his eyes, they shone with brilliance.

He stood up with a content smile on his face.

”Don’t feel complacent so soon. You still have a long way to go in the future”, Although Elder Boron was also more than satisfied with Ajax’s improvement, he was worried that Ajax might become arrogant, so he rebuked him.

”Elder, I think I can soon differentiate between the energies, ”hearing the berating Elder, Ajax said slowly.

”I know, let’s go back to the orphanage, ”Elder Boron said, nodding his head.

Soon they reached the ground behind the orphanage. Ajax started his exercises with the other children.

During these four years, not only Ajax but his friends also had to go through some strenuous exercises.

Seeing their hard work, Elder Boron thought, ’these Children have some good martial talent,’ and he imparted them some challenging postures to practice.

Due to this, all people achieved good body forces, but not as high as Ajax. The body force of Jason reached 700 jin only next to Ajax. Damon and Hector got to 615 jin and 630 jin, respectively.

  Seeing these results, all other children stared at them enviously.

  They know that Elder Boron instructed different exercises for different children.

  Those who practiced diligently would receive more exercises from Elder Boron, but most children lack that diligence, and they could not ask the Elder to teach them directly.

  Even so, some children tried to copy the postures of Ajax and his friends, but they could not bear the pain for even 2 seconds and gasp for breath.

  From then on, no one tried these postures fearing the cruel pain coming with it. 

  Elder Boron shook his head, disapproving of their behavior.

”Hey Hector, you may have high body force now, but soon I will surpass you,” Damon said seriously.

”You stop dreaming, Damon. Only in your dreams can you surpass me”, jokingly, Hector said as he continued, ”my target is senior brother, Jason, after that Ajax.”

”Hahahaha..... ”Damon laughed loudly, making Hector embarrassed.

”Why are you laughing ’demon’,” Hector asked Damon.

”Hey, who are you calling ’demon’? My name is Damon, and it’s impossible to surpass Jason, much less Ajax,” Damon shouted at Hector.

”Stop talking nonsense and do your exercises, idiots,” Elder Boron yelled at them.

They stopped talking and concentrated on their exercises, making Ajax and Jason laugh.

In the night, as usual, Ajax slept peacefully.

During the last four years, he did not have any nightmares, and he forgot about them.

But he does not know that he was enjoying the calm before the storm.

Soon three months passed in a flash.

In the cave, inside the spirit gathering circle, Ajax muttered, ”Finally, I was able to tell the differences between the energies, and also my body feels full of energy.”
