Shuttling Between the Two Worlds

Sharpening. At the Sharpening Stage, you sharpen your Mental Aspects; your will.

What if.. we converge that Sharpness while doing a single sword strike?

Instantly, I entered the Enlightenment State. I picked up my sword, and slashed at the air for a single time.

Swoosh!

This single sword slash might look very similar to my normal ones, but it isn't.

It contains my will in it. Different from a Sword Intent where you partially put your will in every strike, this sword strike contains a much higher attack than a Sword Intent.

Convergence Strike—the convergence of your Will in that single strike. Also, it's an attack that could only be done by a Controlling Stage Combatant.

"Huff.. I broke through.."

I have to thank my lucky stars today. If I hadn't reached the peak of Sharpening Stage, this Enlightenment State might've been useless due to the fact that I won't be able to forcefully create a Controlling Stage attack.

"You broke through."

"Master."

Master appeared in front of me suddenly. Used to it now, I didn't mind it much.

"You only took 17 years to reach that stage. You should be able to reach the start of Shedding Stage after 50 years."

"Understood, Master."

My Master then left. I also returned back to my reality after a while.

****

It's been 7 days since Aria visited. I earned enough Exp and repaired Xiao Song to S+ Rank, allowing me to hide my strength for now.

I'll tell my family of my power after I intervene on Red's plan..

Anyways, my Sword Mastery passed the threshold and levelled up to 6, allowing me to understand swords even better.

I can also see through some sword techniques more easily due to it. The damage that my Sword Techniques bring is also increased by 200%.

There's also my Controlling Stage Mental Aspects. I can now materialize my Will physically.

I got up of my bed and went downstairs. I saw that both my entire family are preparing to go to somewhere. Yep, I'm also coming with them.

Both my parents had something to deal with in the capital of Aindell Nation. Since it's more dangerous without their protection, they told me and my sister that we're coming with them. 

We're also told to pack up clothes that would last for a week. I really wonder what are we doing there..

"You guys got everything ready?"

"Yea."

"Then I'm locking the door."

Our dad said so. We then hopped into our car and went to the destination—Delin City.

***

"Yawn.. It's been 4 hours already.."

To my surprise, my Sister woke up halfway through our journey. She, who would always sleep during these times, actually woke up.

"Eh~ We're not there yet?!"

"Yea. Just go sleep."

"Fine.."

Few minutes later, she's sleeping. Is that a trait? Falling asleep so easily..

I didn't do anything except to stare outside the car window. I saw that there are some places which are covered with vegetation. It's also cordoned off to civilians.

Yep, the existence of Superhumans are revealed to the common populace during the day the cracks appeared.

Because each Superhuman Forces in every major powet responded to the cracks, most people had seen that there are truly Superpowers in real life.

After a day, the 7 major powers made a joint announcement, acknowledging the existence of Superpowers.

They also said that after a few months had passed, a Specialized Academy catering to those with superpowers are to be built in every cities.

That's why the Internet broke. The ridiculousness of Aura and Magic appearing to the real world is too unbelievable. 

Still, chaos has also been prevalent during this period. Many people that awakened their traits thought that they're the chosen one; that they're gonna build their own forces.

In the end, all of them got dealt with. Those Secret Forces are nothing to scoff at. As for those who recovered their cultivation..

The news didn't mention it, but my dad said that even those people didn't got spared. The more evil ones who had committed a crime before is to be killed on sight.

Those who didn't commit that huge of a crime are to be jailed.

In the end, the entire planet adopted to changes little by little.. Perhaps, the students on the future would brag about Ranks instead of higher exam grades..

A basic Cultivation Method for Aura, Qi, and Magic was also publicized. Since this world didn't have the fusion of various systems, one can only choose to cultivate one of them.

Since the fusion techniques promote the synergy of the 2 or more energies, one wouldn't be able to cultivate both.

Of course, some would be able to break this law. They would be able to cultivate both Aura and Magic if their talented enough. As for cultivating Qi with the other two..

It's not possible.

The whole reason why Aura and Magic can still be cultivated both is that they belong to a single Will:The Planar Will/Plane's Will.

As for Qi, it belongs to the Heavenly Dao, a completely different will.

Yawn.. 

After 4 more hours, we finally arrived in Delin City. Different from Bern City where we came from, it is more technologically advanced. The highest building is said to be the Pleia Tower, which is boasting 70 floors.

Since the crack coincidentally appeared in this place, that tower became the main target of the magical creatures. Though thanks to the quick response of the Ivory Tower, one of the Forces behind Aindell Nation, it didn't take any damage.

Right now, dad is still driving towards a certain place. Few minutes later, he stopped on a cafe. There, I saw that Aria and her guardians are waiting.

"Wait, dad. Where are we going?"

"Our destination? Frostdragon Empire, my place of birth."

Frostdragon Empire.. Seeing my parent's rank, I can infer that the highest Rank in this world should be at SS~SSS+ Rank.

With Xiao Song, my power increases by a whole stage, plus my [Demon God's Physique]. It's enough to contend against SS~SS+ Ranks. If we encounter an SSS Rank, I'll be able to deal with him through [Sword of Destruction].

Knowing that I had enough power to protect us from danger, I calmed down.

"Hi."

"Hello!"

Aria greeted me, so I greeted her back. Speaking of, she's on her disguise today. Well, it's reasonable being she's in the capital of another country..

"Ahem. Today, we'll come with the Little Miss and visit Frostdragon Empire.. You better prepare.."

My dad said so. Feeling confused, I asked him.

"Dad, why?"

"You'll know later."

Not knowing what to do, I just prepared myself. Meanwhile, I began chatting with Aria.

Just as everything is going normally, my [Sixth Sense] acted up, informing me of an incoming danger and a Perilous Danger at the same time. Due to me receiving a vision, I couldn't move.

{Master! Master!}

The last thing that I could sense is that we got teleported to somewhere else. I lost consciousness as various visions popped up inside my head..
