Chapter 243 'Ghost In Shadow' Chakram Art



Below an old tree, in front of the edge of the mountain, a boy could be seen throwing a flying disk-like weapon one after another. Minutes passed, hours passed, and even days passed, but he didn't stop. A middle-aged man could be seen sitting below the tree looking at the boy, guiding and motivating him while also focusing on creating the last technique.

It was not easy to understand an Array and create an attack pattern, especially when the weapons used were chakrams that were not commonly used. He also needed to prepare a unique attack pattern that would be almost impossible to dodge; He needed to research Arrays before creating a blueprint for his Chakram Array.

Both teacher and student remained busy for some days. One day the boy, with a slouched back, filled with sweat, looked at the Chakram in his hand. It was a dual-blade chakram with a ring at the center and two sharp curve blades attached. His purple eyes had visible red vessels covering them. Dark circles could be seen on his face; he was tired, and one could see how serious he was about mastering this skill.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath; A bead of sweat slipped from his forehead to his chin and finally fell. He opened his eyes and looked at his weapon; he concentrated his energy and empowered his weapon. The weapon shone and increased in size, Its blade became sharper, and small patterns appeared on it that connected like veins all over the weapon, meeting the magic rune at the center shining in a violet glow.

The boy looked at the weapon with tired eyes, begging for a rest. He looked at the target, which was miles away on the other mountain in front of him; He brought the Chakram, a little back with his right hand before he released it. The weapon disappeared, leaving behind nothing.

It was nowhere visible, then a small 'clang' sound came and the head of the training dummy on the other mountain fell. A 'swish' sound could be heard, and Rishi used his telekinetic ability to stop his weapon. A spinning blade stopped a meter before him. The eyes of the boy shone; he looked at the attack and was speechless.

"It didn't go as planned, but it isn't bad kid; not everything goes as planned. I think you should finalize this technique as the first skill of your chakram art; try to make it silent; I know a trick that could make your attack silent. Then this is good to go," said the middle-aged man as he put his hand on his student's shoulder. He was impressed by the efforts this boy had put in.

The boy smiled before falling slowly to the ground and closing his eyes. He needed some rest; As soon as he closed his eyes, he fell asleep. The middle-aged man saw it, and a smile surfaced in his mouth before he closed his eyes and started meditating. He was in the last stage of creating the third technique, which was inspired by Arrays.

...

It has been two days since Rishi created his first technique. This time, he perfectly bound the "silent" property in his attack, making it completely invisible. He decided to name his Chakram art 'Ghost in Shadow.' He could imagine how this art would become famous and seen by other people with awe and admiration.

[NAME: 'Ghost in the Shadow' Chakram Art

Creator: Rishi Rawat

First Technique: Silent Ghost; Release a powerful concealed Chakram attack that is as swift as the wind and as deadly as ghosts; this attack will give a 'bleed' and 'poison' debuff.

Second Technique: Ghost Possession; Possess your Chakram to move with it; the user can also control the moment of the Chakram when inside it. This technique further increases the speed of the Chakram.

Third Technique: Onslaught of Ghosts; trap an opponent in a Magic Formation, where three Chakrams will attack him repeatedly for two seconds.]

He was in his sweet dreams of success when reality hit him when he heard his teacher, "I have created the Attack Pattern for the third technique; you only need to practice Magic Arrays and blend them with your element. Practice your second technique and meet me after you master it."

The boy shook his head, woke up from his dreams, and started practicing. He first threw his Chakram slowly. The Chakram passed away and remained in his place: "I am too slow; I need to practice more."

He practiced this technique day and night and was finally able to master it. He tried again, released the Chakram, and possessed it. He disappeared from his place and appeared inside Chakram; he could feel himself traveling in the air.

He tried to control it and was able to control it partially, but it was about to hit a mountain. He used the 'bounce' trick to move back and appeared again on his side, but he was suddenly thrown out of the Chakram and hit the ground.

"Ouch." He slowly stood up and dusted his clothes. A chill ran through his back. "This is scary; what if I was thrown midair? I need to calculate everything before using it and make sure I am prepared for every possibility."

He started practicing again, but this time he activated 'Extreme Focus' to calculate everything before moving into the Chakram. Many accidents took place, but he could escape thanks to his ability to create wings and a tough body. The wings were not suitable to fly for now, but they did help him glide in the air and slow down his fall. He sighed and tried again.

He looked at the big Chakram in his hand with his eyes shining in a golden glow; then his eyes shifted to the target far away. He did some calculations before turning into a shadow and entering his Chakram; then, he used his 'Ruler's Authority' ability to throw the Chakram; this ability allowed him to control weapons without touching them.

He solved the problem of not being able to enter the Chakram at high speed through this ability; He even facepalmed himself when he found this solution; He was trying so hard to increase his speed when using his second technique when there was a more straightforward solution.

He launched with the Chakram again; this time, he could control its direction. He was enjoying himself when he saw that he was about to hit a flying magic beast. He changed his direction and passed just an inch away from the beast. He was about to curse the creature when he realized he had flown far away. He looked around and saw that he was in a jungle.

He sighed and entered the 'Chakram' again, using full force as he had to go far away. He accidentally used a lot more strength; He was moving so fast that he could not see where he was going, but finally, he hit a mountain and was thrown out of the Chakram. He came out in a dizzy state, summoned his shadow wings to glide down, and his head hit the large tree in front of the familiar hut.

"It looks like you are having fun with your Chakram techniques," he sighed. "It reminds me of my youth, It's good to be young."
