Perseus POV -
I was looking at Daina. She was sitting on the ground of the planet in a relaxed posture. She was meditating to find the source of her power. But she is doing it all wrong. She was trying to find a core of power. But she is not a mage but a demigod.
Demigods do not have the core of power. It is usually true for the wizards if they exist in this world. Demigods power were mainly comes from there blood. The faint traces of ichor that is flowing through there veins. And since she is not aware of the heritage she belongs to then she can not find it.
And soon I proved myself right. She broke her concentration with a tired sigh. She looked up to me and asked,'' What am I doing wrong? I am trying harder and harder but no result? ''
I replied to her,'' Everything. You are doing everything wrong. You are taking steps. But it is useless to take steps if they are on the wrong direction.''
She looked confused and said,'' What are you saying? Didn't you said that every answer of the world is with in your inner self. And that's exactly I am doing. Trying to find the answer in myself so why am I wrong?''
I bend in front of her so that we both can be on equal level. I looked into her eyes and said,'' You can not find an anwer if you don't even know the question. You are trying to find the reason of your power but first you have to remember what was that power? How it felt? The feeling you get from that power? So now tell me how it what was it like? ''
She took a deep breath and said,'' It was exhilarating feeling.''
I said,'' No you do not understand. Close your eyes and then feel everything that you felt at that time. ''
She closed her eyes. And after sometime she started smiling. So I said,'' Tell me what are you feeling? ''
She let out a small breath and said,'' I am feeling free. The free feelings like air. I can feel the lighting. Thr destructive power of it. But I am also feeling the raging power of storms.''
The more she continued talking the more she can feel the connection. Slowly slowly the arcs of Lighting started appearing on her body. The air is picking up its flow under her control.
The golden lighting that was appearing on her body is quite destructive. She then opened her eyes and arcs of electricity. She smiled and attacked me. I was little confused but I teleported out of the way.
She was grinning from ear to ear. She said, ''You have beaten me quite a few time. This time I will defeat you.''
I laughed at her. I said,'' Young peoples, So arrogant. ''
She glared at me when I said it. She said,'' You once told me that I am older then you.''
I waved my hand in dismissal and said,'' Facts. Facts. Let's talk with fist.''
And then we again went on the fighting phase. And as always she was the one who attacked first. She still lacks patience. But she really did have a big growth. Her speed is much much faster then before.
She reached at me in less then a second when I was standing at least 100 meters away from her. Quite impressive. No wonder in the future she can react even faster then the speed of a bullet.
But still she was far from her prime and especially she was far far behind to be a challange for me. She brought her wrist down on my face but I caught it quite easily. I smiled at her with innocence.
The I used that wrist to throw her on the opposite side but yet another new development happend. She control the air current to stop herself from falling on the ground. She levitate above the ground. And kept floating thare.
She was waiting there to mock me because I have never flown in front of her so she thiks that I can not fly. But seeing that I have no reaction she started getting irritated. I know that she does not have a lot of patience and soom she will loose it and attack me.
And that's exactly what happend. She again attacked me and the result is still the same, just in another direction. This time she concentrated on the feeling she got with her eyes and soon a big very big lighting fell from the sky.
But before it can reach me I teleported and appeared behind her. Before she can feel me I pncehed her lightly and she flew in that direction. I do not intend to drag this battle any more and where She has stopped herself I appeared just there and put my hand on her neck. I said,'' You died. ''
She let out a defeated sigh from her mouth. And just accepted her defeat. I said,'' Now tell me what is your fault.''
She said,'' Over confidence''
I smiled and said,'' While it is right and you have always been over confident but this time you have another mistake.''
He looked at me and asked, '' And what it is?''
I Said,'' You forgot one very crucial thing that I am still your teacher. And one of the smartest teacher in the world once said to his student that I have thought you everything you know but I have not thought you everything that I known. Understand. ''
She said yes but I have no Idea if she will keep it in mind. As always after our session I brought out an Ice Cream and gave it to her. She practically started eating.
I said,'' Remember over confidence is one of the biggest reason of loosing. And I don't like to see it. So keep it in mind.''
She said,'' I will keep it my mind.'
