Chapter 4 - The Beginning of Progress and the Emergence of Power

Gori saw Konairo and talked to him about many things. Then Gori woke up from sleep, realizing it was all a dream. He tried to remember what he had discussed with Konairo but could not recall.

As usual, he went to school. He saw the school surrounded by flames. Gori flew to see what was happening and if there were people inside. He was shocked to see someone there. He landed and asked: "Who are you?"

"I am the new student here," the person said. Gori asked: "Why did you set the school on fire?" The student replied: "I was training, and my power got out of control, so flames spread beyond my control." Gori said: "It's okay, the school is safe. What is your name?"

"My name is Jiklo," he replied. Gori said: "Nice to meet you, Jiklo." Jiklo asked: "How many seals do you have, Gori?" Gori asked: "How do you know my name?" Jiklo said: "You are the winner of the beginner Third Seal competition. You are famous."

Gori said: "I use three seals: A, C, and E." He showed them to Jiklo. Jiklo had five seals: A, C, E, G, I. Gori was amazed by his strength from the moment he saw him.

A girl named Leka came and said: "I am Jiklo's friend. I was looking for him. Sorry if I interrupted." They entered the school, joked, and became good friends. At that moment, Lonia appeared and said hello.

"Can I join you?" she asked. They agreed, and she sat with them. They talked about their powers. Lonia was surprised that someone stronger than Gori existed – Jiklo. After getting to know each other, they all became friends.

The first school test began to measure the students' strength. The test was divided into seven parts: Part 1 – Physical Strength, Part 2 – Seal Power, Part 3 – Skill Power, Part 4 – Weapon Power, Part 5 – Skill Combination, Part 6 – Team Fusion, Part 7 – Full Fusion of All Skills.

They started Part 1. After an hour, Jiklo won first place in the first part. The school announced that Part 2 would take place the next day. Gori thought: "How did Jiklo defeat me?"

After thinking, he went home and asked his father: "Do you have seals?" His father replied: "Yes." Gori asked: "Why didn't you teach me to master or use them when I was young?" His father said: "I wanted you to learn on your own. You have become strong, and I am proud of you for succeeding."

Gori's mother called: "Dinner is ready." They all came to eat. After eating, Gori asked his father: "How many seals do you have?" His father showed him: A, C, E, G, I, K, M – 70% of all seal power.

His father explained: His trainer, Karso, had all possible seals and skills. He dreamed of becoming like him, the strongest Holga warrior. Karso told him about a legend – the 13th Seal, held by a person who owned thirteen seals and became the strongest in the FLP human class.

The four legendary humans were: Ryu (the only 13th Seal user), Hombak (the strongest villain), Horaid (Holga leader), and Konairo. Gori wanted to become the fifth. Gori told his father: "I fought Konairo in a battle." His father asked if he was lying. Gori said no.

His father told him to sleep as he had an exam the next day. The next morning, on the way to the second part of the test, he met Lonia and they went together to the exam. Gori planted a goal in his mind – to become the fifth legendary.

The test continued for hours. Gori tied with Jiklo the first time. They announced a rematch the next day because ties were not allowed. After returning home, Gori told his father he wanted to learn a new skill. His father led him to the river and began teaching him the Rock Skill.

His father said: "First, focus on small rocks without touching them, use your physical power from a distance." Gori started but could not master it that day. The next day, he went to school for the rematch. Jiklo won again, making Gori sad but determined not to give up.

On his way home, he told his father he lost. His father said: "It is natural to lose, but the important thing is not to give up." Gori replied: "Okay, Father. I will improve myself." On the way to the river to train, he noticed…
