Chapter 561: The Weight Of Gravity

Realm of blood...

"Yana, it has been two years, and every day the gravity inside the magic circle has grown stronger. You have had this gravity weigh you down day and night for these two years. I think it is now time for the last stretch. If you can still stand after being hit with the full power of my spell, then you will finally be ready to learn gravity force and will be able to start trying to merge the two styles." Lord Ein had put Yana under the forces of gravity to begin training her body to be able to withstand the full power of the gravity force sword style. It had taken two years and today was the day where he would begin to unleash the full extent of gravity force. 

"I'm ready." Yana calmly said as she stood there with eyes filled with determination. She never thought after learning her current sword style that learning the gravity force sword style would be hard. She had yet to even learn a single move and the training was already some of the hardest she had ever encountered.

Lord Ein nodded and waved his hand, sending down a force of gravity thousands of times stronger than she had ever felt before. The ground under her feet suddenly compressed and sunk down many meters. Yana was struggling to keep her footing and keep standing under such strength. It was as if the past two years were nothing but child's play. 

"Yana, the last three skills of the gravity force sword style will put immense pressure on your body. This here is just a fraction of it. You will spend one final week under this pressure as it gradually grows stronger each day. By the end of the week, you will need to be able to bear seven times this strength. If you can do that you will be ready.

"Gale has already gone through this, but she had many years to build up her body to resist and shrug off the forces of gravity. If you can do this, you will be able to manipulate gravity at will, which will help you merge the two sword styles together. I will do everything in my power to assist you. But once it is done. I want you to take the trial of the war god and become the first war goddess. I have taken you as my granddaughter, so I want to see you reach your dreams." Lord Ein truly wanted a prodigy like Yana to be the one to rule over the realm of blood. She was someone who had the ability to slice through the heavens themselves. If she were to put her mind to it, Lord Ein felt that maybe just maybe Yana could become a legend and become undefeatable.

As for Gale, who was forced to learn Yana's sword style, she was currently being tended to after almost bleeding to death after only learning the first move of Yana's sword stances. She had not even perfected it yet, but her body seemed to undergo a drastic change causing her to almost die in the process. Gale now understood that whether it was gravity force or Kana's sword stances, each one was something one could not underestimate. Just the training alone was enough to kill someone!

Under the pressure of the gravity weighing down on her, Yana gritted her teeth and did her best to get used to this new gravity. If she was not for the fact that she had camlia's blood running through her body and her own sword style had rebuilt her entire body from a cellular level, she would have been crushed to death with she had not been training for this her entire life. It took almost twelve hours before Yana was able to firmly stand up under the gravitational force. Another four to move around a little and then six more hours before she could finally move around freely. 

Even this kind of speedy progress was something that Lord Ein never expected. This was one of the reasons why he sped up the process. When Yana first started her training, she skipped years of training, jumping to one thousand times gravity in a single week before she showed signs of suffering. Since then, she has been quickly able to adapt through each phase, just like she was now. 

But her relaxed feeling only lasted a few hours before she was slammed with another wave of gravity. Day after day, she was hit with the force of gravity a thousand times stronger than the day before. When the last day arrived, she could hear her own bones creaking slightly under the pressure when the last wave of gravity hit her body.  But only after a few hours, her body seemed to quickly adapt to it. So much so that after five hours, she was able to move around freely, and her bones no longer made any noises. She was so relaxed that she flooded in the air sitting in a meditation position with her eyes closed as she felt the gravity around her. 

Lord Ein, who had been keeping a watch on her this entire time really felt depressed as it took him almost three hundred years to get to where Yana was now in a little over two years. "It's time… I will now begin teaching you the first move of gravity force sword style."

"Don't remove the gravity field..." Yana did not wish to train normally. She felt training under such harsh conditions was best. 

"Are you  sure?" Lord Ein asked to confirm. He wanted to give Yana a chance to change her mind.

"Mm… I feel that it would be more beneficial if I trained under this gravity." Yana knew that just using the sword skills would put even more strain on her body but this was what she wanted. She found her strength was growing from being under all this pressure. As such she wanted to use this same pressure to train to her heart's content.
