Chapter-43: What do you think about it?
”Haa! Haa! Haa! Haah!”
A teen boy was doing his everyday shadow boxing.
”Not like this, your leg should be like this and hand should like this.”
Another man beside him correcting his posture even it is 1cm wrong than the usual one.
”O-ok, dad.”
Saying that the teen done couple move correct one and again go back to his slightly wrong move.
”You fool! You are doing this correct for two moves and go back to old posture.”
The man smacked on his head. And that teen replied with teary eyes yet with resolute voice.
”My mistake, this time I will do it correctly.”

I was looking at the practice routine of my uncle and his son in another word my cousin.
By the way, I am taking the appearance of my old look, I will disclose my changed form of Otsutsuki like when times are good and in place.
”YOU FOOOOOOL!!!!! YOUR POSTURE BROKE AGAIN!!! Go take 500 laps as punishment.”
”I am sorry, father. I am useless. I except my punishment.”
Saying that my 15 years old cousin Jackie Tiger run out from our training ground and finally went out from mansion to run 500 laps around our village.
Seeing their exchange I can't help but remember Might Gai and Rock Lee's relationship on them.
Well, though my uncle doesn't match up to Might Gai except for his competitive nature, the life circumstances of Jackie certainly matches with Rock Lee.
Rock Lee can't use genjutsu and ninjutsu, similarly, Jackie cannot use any magic skill because he doesn't have any magic power.
In this world magic power is the source of domination, only 0.0001% population doesn't have magic power at all, unfortunately, Jackie is one of them.
That's the reason despite being 15 years old he didn't accept by any academy which is based on magic in first place. Even to become a magic researcher like me, need to have significant magic power.
But his willpower was good, and never give up in pursuit of power. He started to train physical arts from his father who was number one in our clan in term of physical power.
Back in the academy, I also research on them who don't have any magic. My goal was to inject magic on them from outside, regardless to say, all of my research failed.
But, I think I have a way now to boost his power.
I went in front of my uncle and asked him,
”What do you think? Will he be able to progress his strength greatly?”
Hearing my question he didn't reply. He took a chair to sit, and sigh.
He pours tea from the teapot and started to sip. Looks like he got dispirited hearing my question.
”I don't think he will gain great strength in the future. And you know it better than anyone. Without magic, It's impossible to grow into a powerful man.”
He answered me that while having the face of pity.
”Indeed, I know.”
I agreed with him without consoling or showing pity.
”Even if I and Brother help him, his longevity would be up to hundred years at most.”
More magic power you have, more longevity you got. That's the truth set by the principle of nature. Mortals cannot go against that.
”Then, how about it? Let me show you physical prowess that will go beyond any ordinary magic.”
He looked at me with the serious eyes. My uncle wasn't a serious man, he always likes to keep easygoing mode. But hearing my sentence, he showed his rare serious face.
