Yose leads Yuki to the talisman room in hopes of finding Mr. Hideo or Teacher Yagami there. However, when they arrive, they find the room to be empty. Yose looks around for a moment, unsure if either Mr. Hideo or Yagami might have been here at some point and just left. After a short scan of the room, Yose turns back towards Yuki. "Sorry, it looks like they're not here. We'll have to go to the school directly like how your map showed." He says apologetically. And begins to lead the way to the school. They end up finding Mr. Hideo in the school. Explained what happened down to the minute details. Once Yuki and Yose have finished their explanation, Mr. Hideo nods his head and thinks to himself for a moment. Mr. Hideo speaks next, acknowledging the importance of the situation. "Well, you should be thankful that you managed to escape that situation with your life." He's right. Yuki and Yose both nodded their heads in agreement. "I'll let higher ups know about the Avinash impurity and the unknown woman that took him. Leave that to me." Yose nods and asks, "From what Yuki told me while we were on the way, she used a travel talisman to come here without needing to cross ocean." "Yeah, that is possible. There many talismans that serves many different purposes. You didn't get to learn them yet." "I see" Yose says after sighing. "That still doesn't explain why she was in the air after she used travel talisman." "Most likely the location incantation failed and she got transported wrongly. May I see the talisman if she has it?" Yose hands the travel talisman to Hideo and he checks the talisman. "Just like I thought, the ink on the bottom part is slightly ruined that is exactly why that happened." He adds, "It was really lucky that you were in the location to catch her, Yose. She most likely would've died if she hit the ground." Yose looks at Yuki and speaks, "She risked her life a second time just a few minutes later against that spider curse. Truly a selfless person that wants to help people. Incredible in my eyes." Yuki blushes after hearing this and turns her head, speaking afterwards, "T-Thanks, I guess..." She continues after a few seconds, "So can I get educated here?" "You can, you will have to go through some tests but you surely can. Only special people who are strong gets sent to schools like these. I will talk to Micha about this." Yose turns his head back to Mr. Hideo. "Where is Teacher Yagami anyway?" He continues, "I haven't seen him since the talisman room training."
What a waste of time, this place got abandoned years ago. There aren't any remaining life-force energy on any objects or anywhere else. I better return and tell Grimorth that there is nothing here. Yagami gets out of the secret hideout and begins to walk on a rocky path. Yagami continues to walk on the rocky path, feeling more and more frustrated the further he goes. He had hoped to find something important, but thus far there had been nothing but disappointment. It's near evening at this point so it is becoming darker. When he suddenly feels the unknown life-force near the tree he just walked past, his curiosity spikes. He stops walking and asks without turning around. "I know you are there. Who are you?" He says and the entity jumps right above him, attempting to attack him. Yagami dodges to the side, just barely avoiding the entity's attack. The entity lands on the ground, completely collapsing the rocky path where it landed. "And? Who are y-" "Eat this!" entity yells and unleashes a blast of lightning at Yagami. The lightning strike seems to land on Yagami, collapsing the rock wall alongside he got pushed with the lightning.
"Just as I thought, you are pure exaggeration. Nothing special." the entity says and finally starts to walk to the collapsed debris showing himself fully. The entity appears otherworldly and ominous in appearance. Its skin is dark and rough, with a texture that almost resembles stone but has a faint glowing aura. He is shorter than an average human. Its head features a single eye in the middle of its face that is colored red with two thin tentacles dangling from the bottom of its face, which it uses to emit lightning attacks. Its arms are thin and have thin branches or roots growing out of them, giving it a twisted and unnatural appearance. The dust clears and Yagami is finally seen. He activated "Orbit" to not get hit by the entity's lightning attack. The debris revolves around him like usual and he finally speaks. "Who the fuck are you calling an exaggeration? Know your place." The entity seeing this, sighs with annoyance. He is clearly a cursed spirit but I can communicate with him. Which means he is either A rank cursed spirit or he is unique rank cursed spirit. Based on his current life-force energy, I can tell that he is stronger than Asura that I fought. I can't have this guy roaming around however he wants.
Seeing Yagami thoughtful, the cursed spirit asks, "What's wrong? Cat got your tongue this time?" curse takes a fight stance. Yagami looks at him and responds, "A cat has more eyes than you, you fuckin' Cyclops." he then gets into his own stance.
How does Reverse Life-Force Energy work?
Reverse Life-Force energy is a high grade technique that only a select few individuals have the talent to use. In general, it can be considered as the opposite of offensive life-force energy techniques.
The principles behind RLE are based on the concept of reversing the flow of life-force energy inside a person's body.
Basically, this technique allows its user to channel their energy flow in reverse, allowing them to reverse the effects of injuries or poisons on their body and even regenerate damaged tissue. The process of reverse energy flow can be seen as a reversal of the body's normal flow of energy.
During normal energy flow, the energy usually flows one way through the body. During reverse energy flow, the energy flows in the opposite direction, essentially reversing the natural flow of energy through the body.
This reversal of energy flow can be seen as a reversal of the effect of natural processes in the body, such as healing and tissue regeneration.
Energy flows in one direction during normal energy flow, and it follows the equation e=a/t.
e=Energy, a=Area, and t=Time.
However, during reverse energy flow, the equation is reversed and becomes e= -a/t.
This means that energy is flowing in the opposite direction, going from a smaller area to a larger area. The negative sign indicates that energy is flowing backwards, and therefore the effect of the energy is also reversed. The equation becomes even more complicated when factoring in the effects of time on energy flow.
When energy flow is normal, the equation would become e2=a2/t2, which would represent the flow of energy over time.
When energy flow is reversed, the equation changes to e3=a3/t3, where a3 is even greater than a2.
The increasing values of a2 and a3 indicates that energy is flowing faster over time during normal flow compared to reverse flow. Now, let's look at one final equation that factors in both the effects of area and time in energy flow. This equation would look like this for normal energy flow:
e4=a4/t4, where e4 is energy, a4 is area, and t4 is time.
For reverse energy flow, the equation would be:
e5=a5/t5, where a5 is greater than a4 and t5 is less than t4.
The final equation further illustrates how the effects of area and time play into the equation. For normal energy flow, the area is increasing, but the time is increasing even faster.
This indicates that energy flow would be speeding up over time during normal energy flow, unlike the reverse scenario where area and time are actually opposing each other and slowing down the flow.
Why are only a few selected methodologists able to use Reverse Life-Force Energy?
Reverse Life-Force energy is a high grade technique that can only be used by a select few individuals because it requires such fine control over one's energy flow.
While normal energy flow is a passive process that occurs naturally within a person's body, reverse energy flow actually requires one to reverse their natural energy flow and control it at will.
This level of control over one's life-force energy is extremely difficult and requires advanced training, making it a technique that is only attainable by the most skilled methodologists and curses.
Does using Reverse Life-Force Energy strain user's body?
Using Reverse Life-Force energy has an intense effect on one's body because it requires the user to completely turn their natural energy flow in reverse.
This puts a huge strain on the user's body, causing intense fatigue and exhaustion, as well as some physical side effects.
The side effects of using Reverse Life-Force energy can vary based on the user, but some common ones include dizziness, nausea, headaches, and body aches.
For example, How does Yose keep fighting while using Reverse Life-Force Energy without feeling it's side effects?
Every single methodologist feels the side effects. What could be done is actually mastering how to use reverse life-force energy to reduce the feeling of the side effects. There are no ways to completely prevent them from happening. Yose would have trouble with the side effects if he was an ordinary methodologist. However, he is sharing his body with the Demigod Asura. Which helps him nearly not feel anything due to the mastery Asura has over life-force energy.
