After my successful first step and at the same time, defeat, it took me a few weeks to be able to learn how to walk without wiggling as if I am drunk. Now that I could walk without a need of assistance, I roamed around our house.
This house is built like a mansion, yet it has so many floors that if I were an outsider, I would mistakenly think that this was a condominium at first glance.
The basement floor. Or rather, the lobby. Guests of the Luminosity family go through this floor. In the basement floor, there is a reception desk with two or three zolgarian receptionists ready to help our guests if they are lost. Once the guests finish their business with the receptionists, they are going to wait for the approval to enter our house from either: the head butler, head maid, my mother, my father, or their children, which in this case, is me. However, I am still a baby. So, I have little authority for my age in this household.
When they get their approval from the listed personnel that I mentioned, a zolgarian butler will guide our guests to the elevator. Well, not really an elevator. Rather, a teleportation gate. The teleportation gate was huge. If giants exist in this world, they could probably fit in it. Two pillars of white and gold marble texture stand on either side of a glowing Force circle. On the edges of the circle, there were texts written in Force which I won't bother myself translating because the texts overlapped one another, making it hard for everyone in the house to read.
Under the radiating Force gate, were Rune Stones etched on the floor. Its design is similar to a star. Each point has a gleaming Blue Runes which controls space and dimension. Of course, outside the star, there are two Green Runes which shield the overall design. However, guests could still step on them without interfering with the Rune sequences.
There are more floors that are for guests only. But at the very top, which is just below our floor where we, Luminosity children lodge, was a training ground. The entire floor has an advanced gym equipment that almost resembled the ones from my previous life. There were different kinds of weapons as well which can be used for training purposes only.
What amazes me in this room is that there were tons of Runes etched on the walls. I could feel the Runes under the floor hidden beneath this artificial grass. Judging from the sensation, most of these Runes are Green Runes. Some are probably Orange Runes to help the Guardian train without the worry of depleting their Force Core.
Of course, outside our floor, we have an enormous balcony which is attached to the main building. However, I was surprised as I saw a few floating lands surrounding the balcony which you can also step onto.
The balcony has actual grass and few trees. It also has a small river of water besides the small field to give life to the plants. Of course, it has an iron fence which stands at 6 feet tall surrounding the balcony so that no one jumps over it. I mean, even if they could, a dome of shield was covering the balcony to protect it from outside attacks and to prevent someone from jumping… Or, in this situation, from escaping in case they betray us.
I continued to explore around the house until I felt hungry. I looked at the clock and realized that it was almost dinner.
Looking back, this house is probably more expensive than my country's debt from my previous life. Crazy how rich this family is. To add to that, this family is also known for their military prowess.
Benedict Luminosity. My father. Also, the current General of the Zolgarian Army.
I cannot wait to meet him.
As I was about to head to the dining room, I stopped by the training ground to do a little exercise. As I went inside, I spotted some familiar maids of the house dressed in their battle suits while they were covered with sweat.
I see. You are filling me with awe and surprises, Benedict, my father. To think that I assumed these are ordinary maids.
Of course, I spotted Hoshuka as well.
She was holding a sword on her left hand while on her right hand was a glowing circle similar to the teleportation gate earlier. But this one was smaller and fit perfectly on her palm. The Force circle, which I will call from now on, was gleaming in red and green. Of course, despite its small size, thanks to my eagle eyes, I was able to read the text around the palm sized Force circle.
'Air'
Hoshuka's Force Affinity is 'air'.
Judging from the colors of her Force circle, she has Red and Green Runes carved to her Force Core. Red Runes for destructiveness and Green for protection.
Incredible combination. Force and Runes are indeed siblings!
Hoshuka dashed forward. As she moved, she swung her sword while simultaneously unleashed a barrage of Wind Slashes so quick that those who were not paying attention closely to her movements would lose their neck.
Of course, thanks to her Green Runes, every powerful blast that her attacks made thanks to the Red Runes, shielded her from the strong shockwaves.
Incredible! Not only is she focused on attacking, but she is also focusing on protecting herself from the harm she caused at her surroundings.
So, this… is Force and Rune.
I watched for a few minutes then went back to my room. My hunger disappeared, replaced by excitement to train.
As night became visible above, stars illuminated the planet, I sat on my bed and closed my eyes to practice what I had learned.
Time to feel the energy.
