Chapter 141: Mortal World 7

"Do you know how to use the ring?" Yano shooed everyone away and approached Lia.

Skyla stood in front of Lia and exclaimed, "Go away, she doesn't like you."

"Aren't you only saying that because there's no progress between you and Mil?'' as soon as Yano finished, he evaded and caught Skyla's foot that was about to hit his head. Skyla glared at him and retracted her leg.

Lia clapped, "I see, so that's how you deal with him."

"Right," Skyla grinned, finally having someone who shared her mutual interest in obliterating Yano's mouth.

Yano was once again helpless in the face of this unfair situation, "Skyla, you're a bad influence. Leave now."

"You leave. Go go," Skyla waved Yano away.

"If I don't teach Kim, who's going to? You? Your lover? The prankster? The victim?" Yano called out each of them and they outrageously turned to him.

Yano was right. Lia's best bet was to learn from the best.

"Alright," Lia agreed, which only made Yano triumphantly smirk at Skyla.

"Let's go," Mil took Skyla, "We've got a mission. City A, we won't be back until tomorrow. Good Luck, Kim," with that Mil and Skyla disappeared.

Good luck? Lia wondered.

Ah, that was why, Lia grimly thought as she sprawled on the floor.

"That's it?" Yano watched her while Lu and Holn sat at the sidelines.

Holn was laughing his heart out until Lia sent a stone his way that barely grazed his face.

"I'm sorry," Holn remained quiet before his itchy fingers annoyed Lu.

"I thought we would train how to use my lifeforce and power instead of having you throw me to the ground 1000 times. You're doing this on purpose!"

"You gotta first up your physical power," relaxed Yano stretched himself. The tight shirt and loose shorts he was wearing made it look like he enjoyed the sunny day. He wasn't sweating at all.

"I'm already strong enough."

"Say that to the ground you are having an affair with."

Lia's eyebrow twitched. She really wanted to tackle him down too.

"Fine," Lia was also wearing a shirt and leggings. She dusted off her clothes and took a stance.

However, no matter how many times they fought, Yano always, with ease, managed to grab Lia and lay her on the ground. He wasn't even throwing her. He slung his arm around her upper body twisted her in a 90-degree angle and then gently put her to the ground. Lia was in a deadlock, not being able to move nor free herself. After many rounds, Yano finally set her free.

"Alright, let's work on your lifeforce," Yano rubbed his hand, sat on the ground and patted the spot next to him. Lia complied.

"The ring?"

Lia held her hand up to show that the ring perfectly fit her fingers.

"Can you move your lifeforce?"

"Yes," in the past Lia could do it with ease, so she wasn't worried about it. At least she deluded herself.

The lifeforce moved to her fingertips but nothing came out.

Yano noticed her disappointed stare at her fingers and contemplated before saying, "You said you needed the ring to use your lifeforce, why?"

"Because-" yet Lia stopped.

The reason why she couldn't use it was because Min's power was inside her. This ring had a fraction of the Immortal King's power, but she didn't feel anything.

How could she trigger it? Could it purge Min's power?

"Your hands are the output?" Yano took Lia's hand and viewed it.

"Yano really lets no chance go to touch the poor maiden," Holn hollered and snickered.

"Apologies," Lu dragged Holn by the collar towards the base.

"Hey, what in the world?" Holn's voice faded, "Wait Lu! Aren't you afraid of my-" then completely disappeared.

Lia instantly pulled her hand back.

"Try putting your lifeforce into the ring."

"Why?"

"To activate it, whatever reason you really need the ring for isn't it logical to infuse it with your lifeforce?"

Yano made sense, she hadn't thought about that. As Lia put her life force into the ring, it gave off a white shine before it surrounded part of her finger and seeped into her skin.

Then Lia felt a small ball of extremely white power inside her body. She looked at Yano before trying to merge the power with her lifeforce but it didn't work.

However, it gilded around her lifeforce before surrounding it.

Lia had no idea what it meant but tried to exert her lifeforce.

Yet to no avail. Nothing came out.

"You're still trying to release it through your hand? Try the ring," Yano encouraged Lia to use a different perspective on her power.

Just as Yano said, it worked but Lia wasn't happy about it.

"If I lose the ring then it's useless, no?"

"That's why we'll train until you don't need to rely on the ring."

"What do you mean?" Lia didn't think training would be helpful.

"For whatever reason, your body isn't compatible with your lifeforce and power for now, so we gotta make your body used to it. Anything you think isn't compatible from the beginning will be after some time of exposure to each other," Yano's serious face turned into a crooked smile.

Lia got what he hinted on. Them!

Why was Yano like this towards her? Was he with all women this flirty? Was he a natural playboy? At this thought, Lia disdained him even more and scooted away from him.

Yano only sighed at the reaction but stood up, "There's a trick to make it easier for your lifeforce to be converted into power."

"There is?" curious Lia gave Yano her attention again.

"Yup, you don't need all the guiding stuff. Just focus on the part you want your life force to be converted into power and imagine it pops up there."

"That easy?" Lia was sceptical yet she still tried.

"Easy isn't it?"

Lia blew up her cheeks not wanting to admit nor thank Yano. She remained quiet.

Seeing he couldn't get what he wanted, Yano pushed his hopes down and exclaimed, "Alright, let's start the proper training."

And so Yano gave Lia various tips and tricks that made it easier for her to use her life force but she had no means to verify the effectiveness of it. After all, there were no corpses and Lia couldn't just show everyone her true power here.

Until evening, the training went on.

"Let's try to purge ghosts."

"You want me to join a mission?"

Yano nodded as if it was obvious.

"I don't have any power, I can only let out my life force, nothing more than that."

"That's fine, you have to train your physical strength for once, here use this," Yano drew a circle, this time an orange one in the air and filled it with a pattern. Shortly after, a sword out of his life force fell into his hand. He threw it at Lia who caught it.

At the sight, Yano smiled meaningfully, "We're really compatible. My life force accepts you."

Only now Lia realised she was actually holding his life force just like back then in the illusion where Yano could use Lia's sword, Lia could use his.

The lifeforce of a person rarely accepted anything, it always rejected anyone that wasn't its owner, so why did that nightmare realisation from the illusion come true? Were Yano and Lia really soulmates?
