Chapter 215: Assimilating Law Fragment

"Now, go and sit in the gallery, and observe me."

The students promptly walked to the gallery and began to look for a seat next. As they were busy with deciding their choice of seat, Lee took off his hoodie and sleeveless T shirt and folded it appropriately before placing them on the floor.

There were five girls in the 13 disciples, and their eyes caught the details of his excellent physique. The boys did not have such a chiseled body, so it was natural that they were envious of Lee.

The distance from the center of the arena and the set of seats in which the 13 students sat, was over 75 metres. So Lee walked close when he gave instructions.

"Sensing Mana is not only sensing the energy, but also fundamentally changing yourself. If you have enough sensitivity and control over your Mana, then you can use the flowing energy inside you to eliminate stagnant and accumulated waste in your body. So it is very easy to have a chiseled body, if you can have such precision control over Mana."

The envious eyes widened at this revelation. They had no idea that the Mana could be used in such ways. But their excitement was shunned by the requirement to achieve that stage. With encouragement and discouragement equally neutralising each other, the thirteen students listened to his lecture.

"Have anyone heard of the term 'Elemental Constitution'?"

All thirteen of them shook their head, and admitted their lack of knowledge. Lee then created an intense ball of lightning within his palm. The crackling was faint, but it resonated inside the stadium.

"When your elemental affinity has reached a certain threshold, your magic would show signs of stagnation. But it is also the consent to step into the next stage. That stage is called Elemental Constitution, where your body assimilates small quantities of energy over a long period, and completely forms a physical bond with the element.

This step is very special, and is a lost art. My body has been assimilating the Lightning element for over five years, and it has been recently showing submission to my mind. That is my cue to perform Elemental Constitution.

So, I want you to stay as far as possible from me, because Lightning is a really dangerous element to those who do not have its affinity. Watch me close, and find what happens to me."

Lee walked back to the center of the arena, and sat cross-legged on the floor. The students stood up and walked to the corner-most set of chairs and sat there.

[Damn boy. You are really calculating. I can't believe that you are using the assimilation with the Law fragment of Lightning and the Thunder as an example to inspire your students.]

'Tough times need stronger solutions. To raise the morale of the students and show them a different and higher position to achieve, it is necessary to act in such a way. Since it is also benefiting me, I don't see a reason to not use it to teach the students a thing or two.'

[You both can chat later. We have a task to complete. When assimilation starts, you might feel a sting. Endure the pain, and make sure your mind is not going insane.]

A second later, D opened the EsGen and brought out the Law fragment of Lightning and the Thunder. The appearance of this fragment changed the atmosphere inside the stadium, and the students felt a majestic, yet ominous aura descending on professor Lee.

'Start the process.'

When Lee gave the green signal, the Law fragment entered into his body.

*gritting teeth*

Though the students were standing at the corner of the gallery, they could hear a faint grinding noise in the air. But the crackling of the lightning covered it up. It was then the second element in the law fragment sounded its presence.

*BOOM!*

The thunder roared and it made the students jump up from their seats. The sound of the thunder was many times more powerful than the lightning's crackling, and gave off a deafening boom!

[Lightning and Thunder at 50% integration.]

'Is it not too fast?'

[The system acts as a positive catalyst in the process. So it is only natural that the assimilation speeds up by a great margin. The chance of failure is negligible at the moment.]

The loud outbursts of thunder made a ruckus in the academy. Every department head heard the gigantic boom originating from the indoor stadium. The students were also alert and some ran towards the arena to watch what it was.

Erikko was the first to run towards the stadium. The unbelievably dense energy radiating from the inside of the stadium was equal to the advent of a disaster. Quickly ordering the students to stay away from the building, he cautiously walked to the stadium.

'Process complete. Assimilation successful.'

As Erikko was about to touch the doors of the stadium, the presence of dense radiation vanished. Sensing the sudden disappearance, he quickly opened the door and entered inside.

Except for 13 students in a corner and Lee sitting in the arena, there was no potential threat inside. Erikko walked to the students and asked what had happened, and the students gave him a detailed account of what had happened.

At the center of the arena was Lee sitting cross-legged. His face and expressions did not show any kind of discomfort or uneasiness. Instead, his face radiated peace and satisfaction. A few seconds later, Lee opened his eyes and breathed out a mouthful of air. To his surprise, a tiny lightning flickered with the exhaled air.

[The assimilation was successful. But the law fragment's energy is yet to settle down in your body. So, until it settles, there will be unexpected releases of lightning. Also, the thunder has been assimilated to your body. Since it does not have any physical form, it will show its might when you do something with huge force.]

Lee continued to hear D's explanation, and stood up from where he sat. Looking around, he saw that his clothes placed on the floor had been disintegrated to ashes.

"Professor Lee, how do you feel now?"
