Hittan now realised that he needed to move faster in his training and he would be lying if he was not at that moment pressured. But looking at Kaija and Kaia he knew he had to move faster!

"Students please settle down and listen closely. What we are about to discuss could be seen as the history of Gilead and our Elemental powers. If you were at the Skills class early today and taught by the new teacher Hittan. You would have heard of the partial legacy stored in your Mineral Cores and the correlation with your God Spark Arts.

On Gilead, each person, beast or plant life is born under a particular mineral sign. That mineral sign is determined by the Mineral Core within your genetic structure. It is believed that this planetary system is a result of a battle between the Godbeasts and Celestials. It is the wreckage of that war that spawned this planet and all the others in the system. Some say that the war is not over and others say that we've won. Who knows which is which or if any of it is true. But what we can confirm is the Godbeast or Beast King sign that is presented at our births.

Instructor Hittan has already stated the Core Mineral to Element type relationship. But I will go a step further to link the Core Mineral to Godbeast or King Beast according to their Strength or Rank…"

While speaking Fahim pulled out a crystal that he then inserted into a crystal slot at the front of the stage. Which then projected a table with the information he was explaining.

"...As you can tell from the listings there are 13 Godbeast some of which have beast lineages that can evolve into a Godbeast. But that is a very slow process if not assisted by external forces…"

'Mmmh, the Dragon Phoenix really isn't listed in the known index of this world. Grandpa hasn't given me much information about my legacy or history. I wonder if the Headmaster knows?' Hittan was deep in thought during the lesson as was everyone else but for different reasons. The juniors, of course, had some knowledge of their legacy especially as it relates to their clans and individual families. But not so extensively linking the known animals of Gilead.

If Hittan was not so absorbed into his thoughts he would have also noted that both Kaija and Kaia would take small peeks at him. They found it strange how he could get so absorbed by the lesson that he would not pay any attention to them. Though they found this time a little refreshing, they had to admit they were somewhat bored.

"...Another aspect of our God Spark Arts aside from the Ancestry and origin is the Elemental ties. These ties are based on the optical properties of the minerals and the right combination May lead to White Energy or Positive Energy reactions and another reaction could be seen as Negative Energy or Black Energy. Neither of these is seen as good or bad as both are needed to balance the spectrum. But it is of note that the Celestials are the masters of the Negative Energy…"


'I don't think I've ever thought about manipulating Black energy before. From what Headmaster has said, it is simply arranging the right optical combinations that will produce White energy and Black energy. I should try to incorporate this in my training and see if it will boost my strength.' In his previous life, Hittan himself was not aware of the tri elements in his body and focused his arts on the Land and Sea Dragon forms.

"... which explains why if a black energy signature is seen the response is usually of suspect or attack.

Also, I know that some of you will think that this information validates the existence of the Dragon and Phoenix Village of legends. They were the last reported direct descendants of Godbeast. However, no one has seen them or anyone from that village in thousands of years it is almost safe to assume they too have left. Hopefully, we can find the remains of their burial grounds so that a lucky few can gain a full legacy.

Class is now dismissed. Please engage in self-study."

"Hittan, Hittan! Are you coming with us or not? I swear it seems we are the ones dragging you around now!"

"Sorry, Kaia. I was a little distracted with a new idea gained from the lesson."

"Which is?"

"If I could hold both Light and Dark energy within my body then what could be the result? Interesting right?"

"No, I don't think so. But why do you insist on doing something so dangerous even after the Headmaster warned of the danger if such energy was seen by others?

"Head wife Kaija is cold but deep down she really cares about my well being?"

"Pfft! Why you."

"Hehehe, you sure never stop trying huh? It's okay, I'll take the role of the second wife but I want equal treatment!"

"Without a doubt as the two of you are like precious gems to me."

"Back to the smooth talker role huh? Come on, we want to leave the auditorium and train on one of the nearby mountains"

"Okay, I'm coming, don't leave me. Also, let me inform the guys to carry on without me."

"Wait, have them come along too… why are you pouting? Our group is tagging along too and it could be a good chance for both groups to learn. I mean won't you be there to instruct us?"

"So I'm just the teacher after all…. Sigh."

"Stop acting already, I get enough of that from Kaia! You know it wouldn't make sense to have a sparring match with anyone else, humph."

"I guess that means I'm special, right? Hold on let me get the guys!"

Kaija could only squint as she watched Hittan walking off.

"Sister he seems to really care about us, yes?"

"But is that something any of us can act on without enough power to make that request of Father?"

"He seems nice and he's handsome."

"Regrettably, yes. But don't tell him that."

"Hehehe! You are so bad sister, keeping that from him."

"Hahaha, maybe. Let's go."

'Something seems to be changing in us sisters as it relates to him. Should we guard against him? Can we?' Kaija could not help but question herself and her recent actions.

...

"Okay guys, this place seems fine. Let me have a look at your Rank Skill summoning from earlier. After that, we'll have a practice match where all of you will form a team and try to survive against me." Hittan looked at the crowd with a telling smile, that he was going to take out some frustration on them! Kaija and Kaia now slightly regretted pulling the rest along with them.

"Come at me, but be warned I won't be pulling too many of my punches."

"He's only one man and we have eleven people on our side we can take him!" Sang shouted optimistically. While the members of team New Hope had faces of dread, knowing they were gonna be beating down for accepting his request for coming in the first place. Even the princesses had less than hopeful expectations of their results.

...

All but two were left standing in front of Hittan, Kaija and Kaia. The rest were laid out on the ground panting heavily. Meanwhile, Kaia and Kaija weren't too better off, though they were still able to stand they had little energy left to attack. Hittan, on the other hand, took it all in strides and had not known what exhaustion was. Then like a ghost, he disappeared again with the Flicker Step and appearing between them but before he made a move he ducked an overhead slash from Kaia and skipped over a leg swipe from Kaija. Now it was his turn to attack and with a turn on his right leg axis to engage the Phoenix Dance then Flicker Step he reappeared a few steps away but not before gently passing his hands over both Kaija and Kaia's buttocks!

"Hittan!"

"Humph!"

"Do you prefer I hit my wives? What else can I do?? Okay, your job for the next 5 minutes is to prevent me from "landing a blow." Fair, right? Let's begin."

...

The princesses were beet red and panting with Kaia stomping her feet and Kaija arms folded. While Hittan was to the side smiling from ear to ear. The rest of the gang had finally recovered and made their way over and it was Edan and Sang who was bravest to ask in unison, "what happened between you three?" The girls answered back in unison, "nothing!" While Hittan only continued to smile happily.

"Okay, okay it's time to get back to some self-meditation as tomorrow we will be using the elements training grounds' Flame Realm. Based on the class schedule we have an Early Sun appointment."

'... Plus I also need to speak to the Headmaster about the Dragon Phoenix legacy.'
