Victor was told to take a position on the floor, just in front of the man. He also sat crossed legged. Good thing he was a bit used to sitting this way as he tries to see if he can meditate from time to time, not that he ever found a way to do actual meditation.

The man had started explaining to Victor what he was to expect from all this, and the things that could happen. From his explanation, he told Victor that whatever power he was going to form would come from the skills he had at the moment. For example, since the king of Atlantis whom Victor fought could control water, his skills prior to getting his new power were centered around water attributes.

Victor got the gist of it, and immediately, the thought came to him. What would happen to someone like him who had many skills scattered around different classes? The thought sure was tantalizing enough that Victor had to ask the man who was teaching him at the moment.

“What if someone has more than one kind of skill? Like a fire type and water type?” Asked Victor, not sounding too into the question.

“Well, the person would develop one that will lean towards the type he is more attuned with. There are cases where someone might awaken more than one type, but it was extremely rare and almost impossible.” The man answered.

.....

Victor remained quiet as though analyzing what the man just said.

“Remember, you are sacrificing all other skills for the sake of gaining profound and absolute control over one. This, is what an authority is.” The man said.

“I understand.” Replied Victor before they continued.

The curiosity of what would happen to his other skills had made Victor ask the question, and the answer he got was satisfactory. It wasn’t necessary that all his skills be sacrificed, and it was common for one to retain at least one of their skills.

With all said, and Victor coached on what was required of him, at least, in the beginning stages, they started the process fully.

.

Time passed slowly, and within the short period of time, Victor had learned how to actually meditate, though it was not the important thing. Maybe, four or five days had gone by, and though Victor thought he may have been progressing too slowly, the man assured him that his progress was good and not to worry so much about it.

The training itself wasn’t a straight forward one for Victor in the least. For someone who had no idea what exactly he was doing, he had to find or sense what he was to do, and which direction he was to advance in. This was where the meditation part came in, but even after several days, he was yet to get any results. It was a bit frustrating that he had seen no breakthrough yet, and perhaps, the fact that his one single advantage, the system, was useless in the situation.

Victor had to look within himself to see where he belonged to, which attribute and skill he was more attuned with, and from there draw that out and focus on it. The problem was, no matter how much he looked, he saw nothing.

After a week and a half, approximately, Victor was sure that there was no progress made at all, and had to turn to the man who had been guiding him.

“I just can’t do it. You know, you have yet to tell me what your name is.” Victor said while looking at the man’s form.

“That is because, I have no name. Even then, do not choose to call me whatever you want.” Said the man.

It was a bit unusual, but nothing that was bothering. This world he was now in had a lot of strange things, so some nameless person would not shock anyone.

“That being said, you seem to not be able to link yourself with anything.” Said the man, and Victor nodded.

Victor his own thoughts as to why this was happening, but even then he still couldn’t trust the man completely to tell him too many of things concerning him.

From Victor’s conclusion, the fact that he had so many skills that were all max level may have contributed much. Since the skills were at max level, it meant that he was proficient in all of them, which meant that he was attuned to all almost equally. Since he needs to sacrifice other skills in other to get the authority over another, needed to first make out which he was most attuned with.

‘If then, shouldn’t I sense that I am attuned with all or many of my skills? Right now, I can’t even sense them at all to begin with.’ He thought to himself.

There really was no other way he saw it. He would just have to continue until he made a breakthrough.

‘After all, they say if you do one thing over and over again, you will eventually find results. Perhaps, the only question now is how many times and how long?’ Thought Victor in his mind, as he closed his eyes once again to begin.

“Do whatever it takes to make them see the importance of this. This is pure madness! Madness!! Do they think it won’t affect them? Or have they betrayed us?” A man said with rage as he sent someone out.

This was VIM CORPS HQ, and the man just then was one of the directors in their many sections and departments.

Apparently, while Victor was away finding new power, the surface was in turmoil as the king of Atlantis had declared war officially on those of the surface and their lands. Not only that, but the war had started fully, and it was not looking pretty for those on the surface at all, not even in future prospects.

Apparently, the fact that the earth was covered with more water than land was eventually going to sting. All that needed to be done was raise the sea levels, and those on earth helpless.

Little by little, inch by inch, the water levels rose by the minute, and wherever the water covered, was as good as gone. Even the smallest of sea monsters were in patrol, also, the humans confirmed their suspicions. The monsters were all under Atlantis command, even the terrifying ones that lurked the deeper parts of the waters.

To put it simply, those above the surface were on the losing end of the war that had only begun.
