“I had some idea, even if I had been in the 5th tier, I would have still won. Aura as a form of intimidation has its downsides.” Zhao replied with a shrug
“Well, now I feel stupid” captain Altan Niraj announced “I can’t really control it, yet.” He lamented
“Do you know how?” Zhao asked, captain Altan Niraj nodded “Good, this should help with that.” Zhao waved his hand in captain Altan Niraj's direction.
“What are you doing!” captain Altan Niraj hurriedly jumped back.
it was an impressive distance the captain covered in a moment, only that instead of escaping he had jumped into the ice box, Zhao saw the fear in his eyes just before a cover formed over him. Where the captain stood, now stood an ice box.
“I know you can hear me so listen up, this box is designed to absorb the aether you release to sustain itself. So, till you can manipulate your aether enough to stop leaking, you will remain in this cold, dark box. This should serve as enough motivation so start working on it.” Turning to the others “Well, that felt nice. Let’s go back.” And without waiting for anybody, he began hiking back to where the Humvees were parked, the coffin floating behind him. The others watched him go for a while stunned speechless before they followed.
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
“Was that really the only way?” First lieutenant Lanka asked
“No, not really” came the reply
“Then why?” He continued
“Well…. I had to get my revenge somehow” the rest gave him incredulous expressions “What? Someone had to pay for locking me up.”
From the back corporal kahil chuckled a little before a stare down from the first lieutenant put an end to it.

Use the time till the next lecture to digest what you have learnt. As an ending remark, begin now to think carefully on what you want to be, a mystic or an elementalist, if you don't know what those are consult a textbook for the basics, before i teach you in depth. Recall I told you all before, from now on you must want to improve before you can.” Packing his textbooks “that ends my lecture. Leave textbooks by Sir Gregory, professor Cai Lun, Onyema or any other professors for that matter for now. They are very informative but they can be dangerous and, or miss leading if you don’t have the right background. Stick with the basics, I would recommend Mr. Liu Shan’s intro to aether or professor Zhao Zilong’s foundation for aether theory, the one he wrote before he became a professor, those ones are more for your level.” With that the elder monk left the classroom.
