The explosion was loud but, the inside of the smoke and that barrier had a completely different story to tell.

A peculiar white light covered the boy sitting in the middle of the magic circle and this light… surrounded the soul besides his physical body, too.

This light, this peculiar light, was warm and was giving off the same gentle warmth as the morning sun.

This was interesting but, the black smoke and the black waste that had come out of his perfect body were no good.

He had cleared the first blockage that restricted the use, storage, and output of Solnova.

The first blockage, though it was just a name, represented the whole physical body that had established a perfect connection with the astral body.

So he now had control over his astral body, something few strong and talented people could master.

He was now one of them, but he wasn't looking that good right now.

Though it was painful, he had maintained his energy, internal organs, and outer body with the energy he was absorbing.

He was thankfully unharmed, but the smoke covering this enclosed barrier was not clearing.

His breathing might slow down if things went the same as they were right now but, thankfully, the smoke started to clear up after the snap of her finger.

His master that had taught him everything and the grandma that had prayed for his safety were now happy with their safe and stronger child.

He had grown up in that short amount of time and had become one of the few that could separate and maintain both bodies.

She had never expected this, and neither did him.

For him, this day was more surprising than her.

It was just yesterday that she suddenly brought up this place and now he had become stronger than he ever was.

Clearing the first blockage of the body was a horrendous task, but he had cleared it with excellent results.

He is the first one she taught herself and she liked him even more as a teacher now.

He had surpassed the expectations of this teacher, clearing the blockage of beginning at this young age.

And his Solnova had gained the first characteristic.

Color.

It was him that chose pure white, even though subconsciously.

The color told many things about the power just like Aura.

Aura represented the person, while the first characteristic of Solnova, its color, represented the wavelength of energy the person would accept.

Being different from other energies, Solnova varied according to its wavelength.

Her orange one was hotter and thicker than others and his white was smoother and swifter than others, making it perfect for an archer like him.

She knew it too, but her white flames might have influenced his thinking even deeper than her imagination, making his subconscious choose pure white.

She had a glad smile on her face too and after he had safely cleared the blockage... as well as achieved the second stage for his Origin skill of eyes.

This little bastard was more special than he knew, and this exciting proficiency to use energies was his genius.

The explosion was enormous and the waste covering his body won't clean itself nor will he.

He had passed out on the ground as the smoke was clearing up and now his astral body was also back in him.

He had done his best and one could only try to imagine how great the suffering he had gone through in that short amount of time was.

From the pressure, thickness, and potency of Solnova in that place, it was surprising that he was still conscious after taking that many orbs of energy on his first try.

She ran towards him while his whole body was covered in pure blue flames.

The black waste on his body vanished, and it cleaned him up in no time at all.

After that, a jade green flame covered him, bringing back the vitality and blood he had lost in the process.

He was safe, better than before, and... he has finished her teachings.

Picking his big body like it was a feather, she kissed him on the forehead.

"Well done, Eon. You exceeded the expectations of your master and came out safe for your helpless, greedy grandma..."

She had a smile as well as sadness in her eyes that were seeing the future with a certain bright light.

***

"Mmmm..." as always, after getting beaten up and falling unconscious, I woke up in my room with the same familiar ceiling and scent.

I did it, though I never thought I will be able to.

"I did well, right, master?" I asked with a hopeful expression after getting up and sitting down while supporting my painful back.

"Of course. You even surprise me with that." She complimented with a warm smile on her face.

Her smile was refreshing as always, and I loved that smile.

"Thank you, master." I thanked her with a soft smile and suddenly remembered something.

"Yes. You even reached (Stage-2) for your eyes. They are far better than before.

It's a fascinating achievement, Eon.

Not many have a (Stage-2) skill even after having an [Advanced-mastery] over their origin skill.

This is a tremendous achievement, Eon.

And yours is even special among specials.

They have become... magnificent~." She complimented with a new kind of cheerful look.

She was happy for me and glad that I now had something better than before.

But... what did it become?

'Status window.'

I called out my status window like every day and looked at my satisfying stats.

============

My status window had changed more than before and it was now white, closer to the pure white like the Solnova color I had gained.

"It looks good. Your stats are unbelievable for someone your age, and your skill level has increased, too.

But, before you try that out..." She paused and picked up the small glass from the side table and held it before me.

There was a red wine-like liquid in it and it looked delicious for some reason.

"Drink it. You will be all healed after that." She guaranteed with a warm smile and I took it without any questions.

Medicine and potions were also one of her specialties and she had taught me some of them during that time.

I was seeing this one for the first time, but I was sure of one thing.

"Hmmm..." I exclaimed with a delighted smile and finished the whole glass.

Her every remedy was delicious as if it was a delicacy and not the all-infamous bitter medicine.

This one was also delicious, and the effect was immediate.

A new vitality ran throughout my body, healing every unwellness of my body.

This was some good stuff.

"Ok, so... get up. Try looking outside with your new skill," she said with a radiant smile and walked up to the window.

I also got up without any discomfort and looked at my new pajamas.

Well, she knew everything about me and this wasn't the first time she changed my clothes.

But it was still embarrassing...

With a deep internal sigh, I walked up to the window and looked outside the beautiful scenery.

"Try using it," she said with an excited voice, filling my heart with anticipation.

I believed she already knew what my skill does, but I still wanted to know and there was only one way to find that out.

The skill now had a new name, and it was unique from the previous one.

Looking at the vast grass fields and the tower downside I looked every day, with a racing heart, I used the skill.

"Origin Skill- Three eyes," I said, and... world before my eyes changed.
