Chapter 14 - Technique

Ray is in an unfamiliar place that is pure white as far as the eye could see, well except for one island.

It has yellow sand shining like gold and a ash with tree with a crown of golden leaves on top of it.

Even thought there is no wind in this place, the ash peels off the tree and falls into the white canvas that is this place. None of the leaves do the same seemingly resistant to the wind.

Under that tree sits a man in a white robe with dazzling yellow designs on it.

His face was handsome with a chiseled chin. He has long golden hair that flows in the same direction as the ash and leaves.

Atop his head sat a tilted glowing gold crown, It had two points that seemed like something should be in the middle of them but there wasn't. His skin is tanned with a florescent dark yellow.

Ray takes a few steps towards the man. 

As he takes his fourth step the man's eyes opened.

Bright light pours out of them filling the world with beauty before, the light retracts into his eyes forming strangely dignified pupils.

"Hello, Ray Solaris." The man spoke with a gentle yet domineering voice.

"Hello? How do you know my name?" Ray asks while looking at the man with a confused stare. The voice was similar to the man in his mind.

"You know who I am right, Ray?" The man asks ignoring Ray's question.

"Your Arthur Solaris. Wait how do I know that? What Is this place? Why are all my thoughts being spoken out loud?" Ray says confused but not panicked, he feels there is no reason to panic here.

"Come on Ray, You know where we are." Arthur says with a smile.

Those words strike a bell in his mind tolling loudly across the world.

This sounds makes Ray realize.

"We are in my mind, but why?"

"That's the first question good question. We are here because you ranked up and gave us a new ability." Arthur says with appreciative smile.

"that means our bond has also grown stronger allowing you to give this place material."

"Now I'll tell you more about me. My t class was a technique class called {rune creator} which allowed me to create runes using my element sun-fire which is a semi-pseudo version of yours." Arthur explains with a prideful smile.

"I would've told you sooner but the knowledge of runes is not so easy to grasp plus you didn't have to power to even create one."

"Your solar energy is pure and completely generated from light energy while mine was generated from fire. That's where my technique comes in."

Ray was overwhelmed by this information.

"Why are you telling me this?" Ray asks with anticipation already knowing the answer.

"Your going to be the only one I pass this technique to." Arthur says as he stepped towards Ray. Suddenly he is right in front of Ray.

"The palm techniques I showed you are incomplete runes I made for close combat." he took a pause as if he had slight hesitation then continued.

"The rune I wanna show you now is a complete energy rune. This can store and purify excess energy so you don't overflow and faint like this time. So think of it as a second energy core."

"For now that is all, I will continue to teach you runes as you grow stronger." He says before dropping his smile.

"NOW WAKE UP!" Arthur shouts and suddenly the mind space distorts and disappears.

Ray slowly opened his eyes. He is looking at his room ceiling which has a painting of the founder on it.

He turns to look to his left. Next to him was his mother Emily and sister Rose.

"I'm glad your awake, my Ray of light." His mother greets him with a smile on her face.

Rose is resting her head on the bed. She perks up when she heard her "mom's" words.

"It's good to see you didn't go dying on me." Rose yawns and gives him a pat on the chest.

"I don't die that easy." Ray says with a weary voice

"Well now that your awake, I'm off to deliver the news to the rest of our family." Rose said a huff and walked out.

His mother watched as she left then looked back at Ray and gave him a tight hug. "I'm glad your okay, honey"

Ray hugs her back and says.

"You won't have to worry now, I've ranked up to rank-E." He smiles bright and proud.

"Congratulations honeys you've come so far already and I'm so proud." She responds while squeezing him tighter.

Ray is feeling hungry so he walks out of the room and goes to find food. His mother takes him to the kitchen. 

She made some beef stew in the morning for him because her intuition told her he would most likely wake up today.

They have a nice meal together and after finishing his food Ray goes outside to practice his new abilities.

His mother wanting him to be free, chooses to tend to her garden while watching over him.

As he took a step outside he could clearly feel the sun energy as if he can touch it. He tells this to Arthur, who has a weird reaction.

Arthur puts two and two together before shouting with joy.

"YOUR A LAW CLASS!"

Arthur explains that he should try to focus on the energy in his core. He then tells him that rune writing is the same as the language of law.

{The language of law is the special writing in a person's core that decides what the law would control.

This was a legendary class because every law is powerful. If a law says "All earth energy breaks before me." The all earth energy the user chooses to affect will break. The more broad the law the stronger it is.

As a person becomes stronger so does the affect of the law and and area of effect of the law grows too.}

Arthur gets a good like at Ray's core and he is dumbfounded as he read the seven runes. He has read the runes again the second time is much slower. His eyes widened more after each letter.

"All solar energy is under my command." Arthur repeats the words in Ray's mind.

'Does this mean I can control all solar energy completely?' Ray asks hoping to clarify the words.

"That's completely right and that is such a domineering law!" Arthur answers still slightly shocked.

Ray is so happy to hear this he runs to the training ground ready to test it out.

As he makes his way down the path he runs into obstacle.

A man standing directly in front of him, showing no signs of wanting to move
