The Master Of Elements

ME 55 Eavesdropping

That night Matthew swapped rooms with Ellie. He wanted to do a little experiment. He wanted to try to learn the elements of the weapon he found. Only now did Matthew have a chance to do just that.

Before, they had stopped in a less comfortable place, so Matthew had no chance to try this experiment. Especially before he focused on learning the elements of space.

Matthew pulled out a piece of weapon that had an element of life. He sat down cross-legged and placed the piece of the weapon on his thighs. Both hands held the ends of the weapon.

Matthew immediately concentrated on feeling the element of life on the weapon. Matthew could feel the elements of life around him. Especially when he chooses to focus on them.

Those elements were flying around him, at most it did come from the pieces of weapons he had on his lap. Matthew then tried to approach that element of life.

This time the response Matthew got was different from him trying to approach the elements of space with the help of his two younger siblings. Indeed, now he can approach them, but the process is quite long.

What Matthew achieved this time was tantamount to Matthew approaching the elements in a normal way. In this way, it will be long enough for Matthew to master the new element. Months or at most a year and a half later Matthew can learn new elements.

Although it was fairly fast when compared to people in general, it was still quite long for Matthew. He wants to have all the elements as soon as possible in the near future.

Matthew again continued his concentration to get a new element. But, until the sky turned bright, Matthew had not yet felt any progress on his experiments.

“How was the result Matt?” Ask Elie who visited the room that Matthew occupied.

Right now Ellie could see a black line under Matthew's eyes. That means last night Matthew didn't sleep at all. All this time, even though they practiced, they still remembered the time and did not forget to rest.

“Have you not slept all night Matt?” Jasper asked who also saw Matthew's situation.

“Yes. I haven't slept all night. I'm trying to learn the element of life on the weapon I bought the other day. But I didn't get the results I wanted. The exercise of collecting elements with the help of this weapon is the same as ordinary exercises.” Matthew Clear.

“If so, we can not cut the path to be able to learn the elements of life and the elements of the earth. We can only do it for a very long time as well as the element exercises that we previously did?” Ask Jasper.

“Ya as it is.”

“If this is the case, we just practice the elements that we don't have yet Matt. You don't have to bother adding new elements. I mean, we can help Jas have the light element, or you can help me have the air element quickly.” Obviously Ellie.

“Don't if we help each other, we'll have seven elements? We don't have to force ourselves to have all the elements at the moment, too Matt. Everything needs a process. Then, we are now already above the average child our age.”

“I think, instead of experimenting thinking of new elements, you need to think of ways that we can be much stronger. Thinking of how to expand the energy capacity of our soul may be.” Imbuh Ellie's.

The clarity given by Ellie was like ice water poured into Matthew's face. It made him realize his mistake. Right Ellie said just now, having a lot of elements is not everything.

It is better that they develop what they have now. Strengthening themselves is also more important than just increasing the number of elements they have.

Previously he had understood the concept of using soul energy, right? It is time for Matthew to strengthen. Soon they will arrive at the academy. Students there had the lowest strength at the perungu level.

It was far from Matthew and his two younger siblings who were currently only at Iron I level. Possessing many elements could not necessarily defeat an enemy stronger than them.

“Is. What are you thanking me for. You are my brother. I should have done this.” Answer Ellie.

“It's better we eat. Then we'll go to the shopping week that's here. Grandpa John said, there will be a lot of good food later. So, we need to get there to enjoy it.” Cut Jasper.

“It looks like I won't be coming with you guys to shopping week. I'll go to bed after breakfast. My eyes can no longer be compromised.” Answer Matthew.

“Alright we will buy some food for you later.” Ellie.

…

After sleeping for three hours, Matthew felt even more refreshed. He wants to find the whereabouts of his twin brothers and John. From the telepathy he sent, Matthew knew that they were still in the shopping week in the city square.

The three people had already tasted a lot of food. Jasper and Ellie had already bragged about eating a lot of delicious food to Matthew.

Just as Matthew was about to come out of his room, a voice filled from the next room made him undo it. The door of the next room was slammed violently by its occupants. Not only that, but there were also loud noises coming from inside.

Matthew's curiosity just got up. He sat back in his bed and stuck his ear to the wooden wall in the inn. Matthew immediately gave a value of six out of ten for this inn because of the poor quality of the walls they had.

“Has everything been prepared Han?” Said someone in the room.

“Yes I have prepared it. Tomorrow we can do it according to plan. I've threatened someone to poison the food that will be consumed by the people from Andradius Academy.” Answer someone with Han name.

“After they consume it, those people will not be able to use their strength. It'll make it easier for us to kidnap the talented kids that are there. We no longer need to search like before.”

“Your father is quite brilliant Ron. We could have stock of even more genius kids. Yes even though they are past the age limit to be brainwashed, we can still take the elements they have.” Obviously Han.

“Of course. I'm sure the Old Man from Andradius Academy will be furious after knowing what we're doing. Who told him to destroy the base we have. Because of what he did, for the past five years our organization has a few new children.”

“I can't just let it go. The old man needs to get a reply. This is a reply to what he did. Unfortunately I just thought of this plan now.”

“If I had thought about this plan a long time ago, then now we can do a massive attack in every major city where the initial test entry of Andradius Academy was done.” It was obviously Ron who sounded quite disappointed by what had happened.

“Are we going to be okay just attacking the two? Don't you want to wait for Rey and Sein to arrive? I'd be more confident if they were here too.”

“Just calm Han, didn't the poison make one unable to use their strength for an entire day? With this we can destroy them easily.”

“I know Ron, I know it. But, some people from Greenwood Kingdom must have interfered if we showed up there.” Answer Han.

“Take it easy Han. Tomorrow we'll just kidnap the geniuses that are there. We're not going to do any fighting. So, it'll be easier for us. You don't worry all safe.”

“Later tonight we can join the auction held by Ateoviel Auction House. Weapons that will be auctioned at mini mala I'm sure can help us complete this mission.”
