Chapter 14: You Are Special (1/2)

He closed his eyes and focused on the cube in his hand. The Purification Cube was special since it was concentrated with Pranic energy and had a particular function to help one remove the impurities from their bodies easier.

All Arion had to do was connect with the Pranic energy in the cube and make it resonate with the Pranic energy in his body.

As soon as he did that, Arion felt a pulling force from the cube that seemed to draw something out from his body.

His blood flow increased, and his heart began to pump at a rapid rate. The minute pranic energy in his body flowed through his whole body like a stream and moved towards a common spot—his palms.

Soon he felt as if his entire body was becoming lighter, and the pores of his skin were expanding. He was starting to feel rejuvenated, as if he was being bathed with holy water.

The sensation was highly soothing since he felt as if his whole body was being purified.

He felt a relaxing sensation on his skin, muscles, nerves, and bones. He even felt his blood being purified of all toxins and impurities, making him feel revitalized and refreshed.

Even though he was just a kid, he felt as if he was becoming younger. He thought that it was the feeling due to the cleansing that was happening in his body.

His mind and senses were completely focused on this cleansing process and didn't feel like stopping since he liked how comfortable this was. Even a full body massage or going to a spa wouldn't come close to this feeling.

After basking himself in that comfortable feeling within his body, he suddenly felt the disappearance of the pulling force.

”Huh, what happened…” He groggily opened his eyes and almost popped out his eyeballs when he saw how dark it was outside the window.

But the most beautiful thing in the night sky he saw was a big pale-colored moon with beautiful glowing white stripes running along its surface.

'Wow...I can't believe that is a moon. It must be very close to this planet for it to appear this big,' Arion found the sight mesmerizing and made him realize again that he indeed was in a fantasy-like world.

He also remembered the weird superimposed sun. It was as if two suns joined together at its edges to form a dumbbell-shaped star. He wondered if it was a binary star system.

But they were very bright and seemed a beautiful sight as he saw from his memories. Arion wondered what the people in his previous life would think if they knew that life existed outside Earth and that they were not alone.

'Thankfully, people here look like humans. Otherwise, who knows how I might have looked. Oh damn, I forgot,' Arion realized that he got distracted by the night sky and looked at his palm to check how much progress he made.

”What the…” Arion had his eyes widened as he stared at the black cube on his palm. He also noticed how his complexion and skin looked better than before.

”You are indeed a hidden genius,” A beautiful voice came from behind.

”Sister Mei, I did it! It became completely black. But how is this possible? Wait, how many days have passed? Was I out for more than a day?” Arion was confused since he clearly knew that he lost track of time considering how it was sunny before he closed his eyes.

Now seeing that it was night, he wondered if he was cleansing his body for more than a day. But still, he felt confused since he wasn't feeling hungry or weakened.

Since the Purification Cube became completely black, it meant that his body had been completely purified, and all impurities in his body had been gotten rid of.

If he only partially did it, then only a small part of the originally white Purification Cube would become black.

In fact, he felt as strong as a horse with energy he never felt in his body before.

Mei came inside and said with a proud smile, ”Not even one day.”

Arion's mouth fell as he knew that the Purification Cube was not that magical since even with its help, one would at least take a few days to finish the whole process.

He then asked in a thoughtful tone, ”Was it because I am—”
