The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 35: Wave Cloak

Cain’s attention reached a peak as he heard Wink’s description. He already practiced Wave Cloak and Wave Burst in the Military Academy Secret Trial, but his understanding of Wave Focus and Wave Transmutation was almost null.

“First, I will start with Wave Cloak. You all understand it as releasing our Wave out of our Sacred Organs before forming a protective mantle around our bodies. Practically everybody who becomes a Level 1 Wave Warrior knows how to deploy this art. According to the Empire Science Academy, the reason for that is a genetically specified latent memory, similar to the one in birds that allow them to fly.”

Many in the auditorium could not help but open their eyes as they heard that information. The last part regarding the genetic factor was something some scions from lower Nobles Families were unaware of.

The virtual screen above Wink focused on one humanoid, who unleashed Wave Cloak. It manifested as a flaming colorless aura.

“First of all, the most basic and primordial training of Wave Cloak is to make it evenly distributed around the body and condense it. That is called Synergy Flow.”

As soon as Wink spoke those words, the Wave Cloak in the humanoid stopped its erratic movements. Slowly, it began to rotate evenly around the body while condensing, reducing its length.

“In that state, not only are our Wave defensive capabilities improved, but the amount we needed to maintain Wave Cloak active is lesser, allowing us to fight for more time.”

.....

After those words, the screen above Wink showed a melee battle between a humanoid that mastered Synergy Flow and one that did not. The victor was obvious, but the fact that the first overwhelmed the other surprised many.

“The second training of Wave Cloak is called Free Flow. It allows our Wave to lose its defined state, letting it flow freely. This exercise enables us to push our Wave to its limits, slowly improving its quantity and thickness, despite not having improved our cultivation. Think of it as body training, when once the muscle is pushed to the limit and allowed to recover, it will grow larger despite the number of muscle fibers not changing.”

Unlike before, the screen this time did not change, and everybody saw how Wink’s Wave Cloak manifested.

It was sky-blue, and the amount of Essence Wave in it was roughly that of a Level 4 Wave Warrior. It was clear that the middle-aged man was not showing his true power.

The one thing that drew the cadets’ attention was how dense and evenly distributed the Essence Wave was.

“It is better to show it in person if you want to understand the battle use of Free Flow.” Wink said nothing else, and his Wave Cloak lost its defined state, transforming into a fog that covered the entire auditorium.

All the cadets frowned since the Essence Wave in that fog state exerted tremendous pressure on them. Similar to the pressure of being at the bottom of a river.

Their bodies felt incredibly uncomfortable, and things only worsened as Wink began unleashing more of his Essence Wave. Soon it reached the point where the cadets had to trigger their Wave Cloak to resist, and that was all they could do. Fighting in that state was impossible.

Some of the cadets failed to control their nausea and puked. Luckily small drones would come and pick it up as soon as it happened.

Wink retracted his Essence Wave after a minute. By then, all the cadets had cold sweat running through their backs.

They were more than two hundred so-called geniuses, but Wink could have killed them without moving a muscle. That showed the power of a Wave Champion and the might of Free Flow.

“Free Flow is also an exercise all of you should master. Not only will it improve your Wave, but its use on the battlefield and against crowds is phenomenal.”

Wink gave the cadets a few minutes to rest as he saw that some almost fell unconscious. Had he continued for longer, there was a good chance he would have killed them.

After ten minutes and seeing that most cadets regained their focus, Wink continued.

“Now, I will teach you Directed Flow for the final Wave Cloak exercise. Its essence is enshrouding an object with your Wave, enhancing its offensive and defensive capabilities. Due to its malleability, Essence Wave is much more suitable for it.

This ability is key in using Essence Wave Artifacts like swords and daggers, so all Essence Wave Warriors must pay special attention to this exercise.

Astral Wave Warriors can not neglect it. Directed Flow has excellent uses, and if you grasp it, there is nothing that would stop you from using melee Wave Artifacts. Of course, you should first master a weapon to the same level as your arms, or else there would be no point in it.”

The virtual screen above Wink focused on the humanoid with the Wave Cloak again, and everybody saw how a sword appeared in his hand.

Slowly the Wave Cloak that was limited to his body expanded to the sword.

Next, the virtual screen saw how two humanoids carrying swords fought. One of them used Directed Flow while the other did not. The weapon clad in Wave broke the other in less than ten strikes.

Wink saw how the might of Directed Flow failed to impress the class as Free Flow did, so he waved his hand, and a small steel marble appeared in it.

He poured his Essence Wave into the steel marble before throwing it against a wall.

“BOOM!” An explosion that resembled that of a tank cannon echoed through the room. The steel marble encrusted itself in the wall, and massive cracks appeared around it.

“If you can pour enough Wave in an object, even a simple steel marble could compare with a cannonball.”
