Chương 487: Training

"Put out the fire and try again," Alexis said from the veranda looking over Ning.

"Okay," Ning said and turned to put out the fire. As Alexis had made him understand by now, he was only to use Aether for everything. 

He was about to use water to put it out, but he had to redo it again. If he used water, he would have to try extra hard. 

'What was it? Oxygen?' he remembered the few books on science he had read for the last few weeks now. He hadn't gotten the chance to read much about it in the tower, so he had to try the books in the city.

Fortunately, they were enough to give him some ideas about it. To put out a fire, he just needed to starve it of oxygen.

For that, he didn't need water.

Some of the dirt on the ground moved up to the burning tip of the branch. Ning continuously absorbed Aether, so as to keep up his supply of it.

Once he brought up all of the dirt onto the fire and completely covered it, the fire went out.
