Chapter 151: Realization (1)
Rain's guess was right; those guys were just like the Lady Succubus that brainwashed his father. Even though he didn't look them in the eye, he felt their magic, making his body heavy somehow.
"No time to mess around, huh?" Rain thought and then made the enemies sink to the ground before crushing their bodies with the earth.

Despite the fact that the enemies died, Rain still didn't feel his body getting lighter... that was a bit troublesome. Still, he will have to deal with the monsters using magic alone.
Rain took a food look around once more and confirmed that no more spies were around. So, he didn't have to hold back. The monsters approached, and considering their silhouettes, they weren't armored turtles... before Rain could take a good look around them, they opened their mouths. Then they bombarded him with a massive wave of Fireballs.
"What a time for my body to feel so heavy..." Rain thought.
Still, before the Fireballs could reach him, they began to explode in the air. One after the other, to the point that they illuminated the area brightly. The temperature increased as well, but Rain didn't suffer any damage... he stopped the magic projectiles by hitting a few of them with air bombs, and when they expanded, they stopped the others.
Since their masters died, the monsters still followed their last order to dash toward Rain and attack him. However, before the second volley of Fireballs, they were impaled from below by earth spikes. The monsters grunted in pain while they tried to free themselves... but it was useless, and soon died.
"How do you suggest that I should train?" Liss asked.
"Well, you can control the temperature around yourself; make it cooler during the day and warmer at night," Rain replied.
"I don't think that my control can be that good... is that really the trick behind your powers?" Liss furrowed her eyebrows.
"The trick is diligence and creativity," Rain shrugged. "Start low controlling a fireball and try to decrease its size... just like the weights, you can't start doing something difficult. You increase the difficulty one step at a time."
"We can do that once we dispose of the bodies and move the monsters toward the fortress," Jori declared. "Leaving them behind would be a waste, and we can study them to prevent future unpleasant surprises."
It was very unlikely that the enemies would try anything that night. Still, Rain decided to rest since his body felt heavy even after a couple of hours. When morning came, he was feeling better... but not that much.
"Maybe I should do the same thing I did with Dad, but staying upside down would draw a lot of attention here..." Rain thought. "I guess I will just wait for the mana to dissipate."
In any case, Rain achieved one of the two goals that he had set for himself in the last year; now, he just had to learn how to use support magic. That certainly will come in handy, even more so if they are skills from the system.
"I guess the change of scenario gave me the inspiration necessary... doing the same thing and following a routine is good when it comes to physical training, but I guess it is the opposite when it comes to magic," Rain thought.
When the others woke up, they immediately readied themselves to do some training. Liss did what Rain told her before and started on the previous night... while she didn't make much progress, she was determined to obtain some. Since Liss was fired up, the others also felt itching to improve. Since Rain was with them, they knew that they had some room to spend their energy, so they didn't hold back.
Still, soon they realized that they had gone too far...
