Grey shook his head

“I know it see was placed inside of you and you wouldn’t awaken your element by twelve rather by the time you turned fifteen, you wouldn’t believe me since it was known everywhere that one can only awaken their eleh there are a few late bloomers, it can’t be predicted fro what I said was true, but what about after you turned fifteen? Then what? Even I was starting to lose hope”

Martha said cal Martha’s explanation, Grey knew she was right There was no way he would have believed it if she told him he wouldn’t awaken his eleht of all the possible heartaches his parents h due to his sickly nature as a newborn, he felt grateful to theive up hope, even when it ins, at least they just wanted to save their child

Although the thought of it being fake and probably killing hih his mind, he re anyway

After soht back to what he heard

“So now I can be an Eleain just to be sure

“Yes, not just any ordinary Elementalist, but one who controls all ele Grey’s hand in joy

‘Control over all ele in his ear

“How can someone have control over all the elements,” Grey asked with shock

“I don’t know baby, but what I do know is that your dad will never lie toto har” Martha ran into her rooht an ancient scroll out She looked at Grey before handing it over to Grey cal the scroll over to Grey

Grey took the scroll fro what to do He studied the scroll closely before opening it Then he looked at it with great curiosity

The scroll showed hi the technique Without the pearl, anyone can have the technique but will never be able to cultivate the technique

Grey finally calhts ‘No wonder ht happily

“I can finally cultivate, I will definitely work hard” Grey clenched his fists tightly

Grey went inside and i a meditative state, so he can clearly follow the pattern of the technique

He sat in a lotus position and stayed motionless to try to calot into a meditative state He followed the instructions said in the scroll He tried searching for the energy in his body, it took hi several times

“Found it, now for the second step” Grey was thrilled on y

Now the next step was to y in a particular pattern in his body, he has to repeat the circle 10 tiet his body accustomed to it

Grey tried the first tiy froive up when he found out he didn’t have any elemental affinity, talk less of now that he can cultivate with having an affinity with all eleain, which also failed He kept on atteress By the tiot totally exhausted, it was almost dawn He collapsed on the floor and fell asleep there and then His body was totally worn out from all the attempts

By the time he woke up, it was already midday He felt pain all over his body and was still exhausted If a normal Eleet out of bed for a week The cultivation technique took a great toll on the human body

“No wonder it required such strict physical training before one can start cultivating it, if it were , I would not have been able to get out of bed for a month” Grey exclaimed when he felt the aches all over his body

The process continued for another 2 days before Grey started ress He was finally able toHe was so happy but also felt sore all over his body for his little progress Due to his strong training, he was able to withstand pain more than others because he wrecks his body al session

After another week, he was already able to coined hih in his bed He couldn’t laugh properly because of all the pain his body was going through

During the process of the second circle, Grey felt the pain increased a bit He was already starting to get used to the pain then it increased
