After confirming with my father that the training would start in 2 days, I spent the rest of the days meditating as I had not done that in a very long time.

What I would do while meditating is to breathing in 5 equal puffs of air holding my breath for 10 seconds and releasing 7 right after. While this might seem like a good meditative technique that I had gotten from earth to calm my mind and enhance my lung capacity, apparently it was also a really good method of absorbing elemental energy.

Right now, I could absorb up to 30% of the elemental energy that would enter my lungs, compared to the usual 20% without this technique. While I could use it in a fight, it was not very practical due to the need to have your mind fully focused on producing the results of the technique and committing to the equal breaths of the technique which are needed for such results.

One thing that I had realised after my awakening was that all the elemental energies left in my body after I ate and the ones that were left after I breathed, were all sent to my mana heart instead of going away with nutrients to to absorbed into my body to enhance it further. While this might have decreased my body strengthening speed and my healing speed, it was a lot more efficient since my mana heart would release purer forms of divine mana. While my mana heart would no long increase in size like it used to, I'm pretty sure it will increase in size when I become older.

Another thing is that I still could not control my divine energy. While divine mana within my body would remain that way, when it comes out, it would be deluded to a pure form of elemental mana, to the point that I didn't even have to use air magic anymore to make my flames blue. However, even though this was the case, my body exuded a pressure on anyone around me, and while I could suppress it to a certain extent with the help of Juilam's training, it was still very much there.

This also meant that when I would release mana as a element rather than a divinity, there is still a very small percentage that remained a divinity, which is apparently really good when fighting against things with soul flames, since divinity would damage the soul flame directly. Even though this gave me less of the soul flame to consume, it would be good against those who I cant hit normally like the spirit warriors Ambrose has.

One things that could use my divinity were my eyes! Since my eyes are now "Divine Eyes" After my awakening and their little de-evolution, they could use the pure divinity without any consequence, except of when I use my 'eyes of vanity' which consume a crap ton of mana.

2 days after the argument with my mother, I was simply meditating through the night until before dawn, I felt someone waking up downstairs and moving around. Thinking nothing of it, I put all my concentration into my meditation until I felt the person walk right next to my door and sighed heavily.

Since more than half my focus was on the meditation, I couldn't react in time to my father barging into the room wait a loud shout, saying "WAKE UP RECRUITE" IT'S TIME FOR YOUR TRAI-...."

Slowly opening my eyes with an annoyed look, I looked at my father who just looked at with his mouth wide open, frozen after seeing me already awake.

Coughing slightly, my father closed his eyes and put a closed fist in front of his mouth before asking "Why are you already awake?" with a calm tone.

"To meditate?" I said with a questioning look while getting up out of my cross-legged position.

"I see, well, get to the front year, I'm going to be training you like they do in the military. You will first have to learn standard procedure. I have some better clothes for the training" He said while giving me some clothes for me to wear.

"Alright, give me a sec, Ima' change real quick" I said with a nonchalant tone while waving my hand to the door, telling him to get out so I can change.

"And address me as sergeant from now on!" my father exclaimed before slamming the door shut.

changing in less that 30 seconds into the green camo jacket, green camo pants, black boots, a leather armour gear under the jacket, knee pads, elbow pads and a green camo cap that I put my pony tail through the back of, I jumped out of my rooms window and into the front yard where my father was, ready to train.

No matter how much my father wanted to make this training seem hard, there is no way it can be more painful than the continues torture Juilam had put me through. 'Since my father doesn't know I can go almost a month without sleeping, I should be fine.' I thought with a small smile while getting into the posture of soldier in the military.

My father looked at me weirdly before I could realize that this world probably had different postures for military soldiers than the ones on earth.

"Wha- ugh... Just do it like me." He said before getting into a posture where his right kneed would be on the floor while his left foot would be a bit in front. The back would be straight while his forearm would be on his right left knee.

"you only do the stance you did when you are asked to stand or asked to do something that forces you to stand. How do you even know- ugh, never mind." He said while getting up while I copied his stance to perfection.

'That eyes seems really to be able to analyse things quite easily.' He thought to himself.

"Get up, first thing on your training is to do a hundred push ups, a hundred sit ups, a hundred squats, 150 star jumps and run from here to the forest and back. I'm going to watch over you while you do all this" He said with a stern voice.

Nodding slightly, I started right away without even complaining for a second like my father had expected me to do. Unbeknownst to me, when my father had tried to make my brothers and even aroura to do half of this training, they had started groaning and asking their father to be nicer to them. Of course, for me this training was nothing as I would do at least 10 times more in the morning when training with Juilam, not to mention the 'balance', 'agility' and 'endurance training Juilam made me go through on the daily basis.

Finishing all the tasks I could do at the front yard in a few minutes, I got up and got ready to jog to the forest and back before my father stopped me.

"To be honest, even after training with you for so many years, I didn't expect you to actually have enough endurance to go through that all without even breathing heavily... I guess I'll have to train you with the real training instead of this casual training that was meant to set you up for the more intense exercise." He said while holding his hand to his chin.

After a while, he just stopped thinking and started to jog to the forest while looking at me, signalling me to follow behind him, which I promptly did. After a while of jogging, my father doubled his speed which I easily followed right behind, before he doubled it again, and again, and again.

At this point, we were both sprinting to the forest, and I could feel my breaths become slightly more heavy.

My father continuously doubled his speed until we were basically moving at 80 miles per hour, which made him make the final boost to move at 160 miles per hour. Seeing this, I was shocked to see he could even move that fast since I didn't think humans actually could achieve such physiques without using any mana.

While I tried my hardest, I could only move at around 150 miles per hour without using any kind of mana or gravity control. I just made sure to lock my weight at around 50kg so my whole foot wouldn't sink into the ground after every singe step I took.

getting back home 15 minutes later while breathing in and out heavily, my father looked at me with an extremely shocked expression before asking me "Did that wolf, Juilam was it? Did he teach you body refining techniques?" My father questioned with a raised eyebrow

"Yeah" I lied through my teeth.

"Hmm, I see then. Anyway, no time to rest. Since I have work today, I will only be able to train you until 9 am before going to work, until I come back at 7 to train you a little more before going to sleep. I'm going to give your sister the basic dishes she should make you that are a replica of what we ate in the army." He informed while looking into at the rising sun.

"Okay. Now I'm going to teach you the 16 stances that forcefully push your mana through certain veins, arteries and muscles. They will strain your muscles and will hurt a bit at the start until you get used to the pain they give you. Is that understood?!"

"Yes Sergeant!" I shouted while going into the stand my father had shown me, before getting up and straightening my back so I so I could replicate the 16 stances my father would do.

Watching my father do the stances, I could see how mana was flowing into different muscles, straining them in the process while also reinforcing his mana veins very slowly to become more efficient in moving mana around the body. I felt a little bit of excitement grow in me as this would skyrocket my growth, since my mana heart and mana veins wont naturally grow until I reach my adolescent, which apparently even after my growth in body size, I hadn't reached.

After watching each stance, I relaxed my body and shifted it with fluidity, copying every single movement my father had made. After reaching the 8th stance and not feeling anything, I just guessed that I would need to get to the 16th stance to actually feel anything, but to my dissapointment, I felt nothing.

Looking at my father in confusion, I was about to ask what happened, until I remembered what Juilam had told me back when we were training.

I remembered that Juilam wanted to teach me a body refining technique, but according to him, even if he did teach me it, it wouldn't work due to my divine mana. It happens to be the same way with weapons, as they too would deteriorate much faster due to my constant exhaustion of divine energy out of my body.. This would be extremely prominent if the armour, weapon or accessory was one that I could use the mana circuits of to transfer mana into the weapon.
