I lost everything but my will

"What is death without life, for what lives must die and what died must've lived, in this balance life and death become one and the same. Does this really make sense Jena questioned as she reminisced on the mantra the system had given her, to meditate on?

"Ughhh! This thing is so annoying and repetitive, I've been staying here all Zen and all for the past 2 hours, why can't I leave now?" Jena asked the system grumbling.

Ding! 'System activated time alter, so what felt like 2 hours here is just 2 minutes in the world you reside in now'

Ding! 'Because of the host's constant distrust for the system, I shall reduce one of your skills, but you may choose which skill I reduce'

Ding! 'It's advisable that host completes the mantra a few more times, I already sense faint light energy coming from you…It's calming"

"First off… did you just say it's calming? So you can actually feel the energy I possess? But doesn't that make you a bit human-like? Tchh, I still have a lot to learn about this relic and I have to learn it fast. I'll ask Jam… Oh yeah, I'm supposed to be mad at him, being in love is so hard these days," Jena said sighing before continuing the mantra the system gave her.

Few minutes into the recitation of the mantra, Jena entered some sort of trance, it was as though she were communing with nature itself, the essence of life in its most profound form and she was enjoying every bit of it. "So this is life, beautiful and serene yet ghastly and chaotic, all balancing each other in a consistent never-ending cycle. But even this is just the beginning," Jena said as though she were possessed.

Suddenly her eyes become so much clearer and her pupils were filled with a myriad of colors and her body exuded a light as though she were luminous. "So this is what the relic meant when it said it was calming, but how come it was able to recognize this feeling, is it attached to life itself or is it alive?"

These questions ran through Jena's head as she pondered for an hour. "I see… Life itself is inexplicable so explaining something that's a fragment of it, will prove to be tasking. Do not try to understand the thing that cannot be understood, rather attach a significance and meaning to it and you'll be surprised the mysteries you'll unravel" Jena said laughing.

Ding!! 'Host has absorbed light energy to a high extent'

Ding!! 'Relics strong affinity towards life energy has now been used to boost the amount of life energy present'

Ding!! 'Ding host is now is a life energy master'

Ding!! 'Has now gotten to Level 4 life energy stage '

Ding!! 'Reward given to host for becoming a life energy master'

Ding!! 'Instruction sending 10%...40%...100%'

"Wow, all this ruckus in my brain has taken me out of my transient state. I best be headed back… but let me test out this power, level 4 energy mastery, this should be fun" Jena said giggling happily.

-Few Hours earlier when Jena left-

"Well… Look what the cat dragged in, I'm guessing you're looking for your brother right? You won't find him anytime soon so just come with me quietly and you'll meet your brother after we pick him up. By the way, this young man beside me is a bit hotheaded at the moment, so your complete compliance would really help you and your brother," Amber said laughing.

'What kind of situation have I gotten myself into, finally money has ruined me. I should just comply then run with Tyler when I find him and that's if these guys aren't energy masters, because if they are I won't mind working as a slave or doing whatever they ask. Life is far greater than the imagination or speculation of it,' Luka thought as he simply followed the duo to wherever it is they were headed.

Soon enough they found Tyler wondering around with great effort because he was still enduring a really strong headache and various flashbacks of the events from yesterday kept replaying in his head continuously.

"Hey madam, were you the one who knocked us out yesterday?" Tyler asked although still scared

"Well sure, I'm the one who knocked you out, and yes I'm an energy master so please keep the talking for some other time," Amber said as she walked answering and relating to them as though they didn't exist and even if they did they were insignificant.

"Well since we have them now, all we need to do is wait for Jena do arrive patiently," Amber said to James and he nodded in response.

-Currently-

"Amber what's wrong with your eyes they changed color and you seem so much more powerful the aura you're exuding now is so scary and powerful," James asked worried as he noticed the drastic change with amber

"Well James I'm just testing something out, the person you should congratulate will soon be here. That girl is honestly a genius on energy gathering and to date, I wonder how she does it.

A few minutes later a white blinding light appeared and a girl walked out of it like a goddess descending from the heavens.

-Daji Organization-

"Sir the plan is progressing smoothly, but that man has refused to give us any useful information, he proves to still be stubborn" A servant said to lord Viper bowing

During the course of time Overlord Jing spent with Lord viper and the Daji Organization, he suffered pain he didn't even deem was possible to experience but they still believed he was holding back information and truly he was because the person whose information he kept hidden was scarier than everything he's been through.

"I can't believe I have to visit that thing again," Lord Viper said disgustedly as he dismissed the servant.
