Chapter 307 - 307. The way they learn...

Kendra felt herself free of everything. They were nowhere. Just an empty space with absolutely nothing there. No light, no people, no creators or constructors, nothing. 

Feeling his soft hands holding her Kendra sighed. ''let em quickly create something. I don't know how you feel in darkness.'' She remembered the comfortable feeling once she died. 

Cethin hugged her tightly. ''Do you want me to change into original being so I can make it more comfortable for you to handle darkness?''

Kendra smiled at him and shook her head. ''I can feel that your primary being is way too unstable. If you let it out, I know you won't be able to control it well. Cethin, let us just be here for a while. Is it uncomfortable for you?''

He pressed his lips on her forehead and a chuckled could be heard. ''Your skin is so soft that you want to lick it.''

Kendra quickly covered her forehead with a hand and pouted. ''How childish.''

She could hear him sigh. ''From one side I am happy, really really happy that you became an a.d.u.l.t. But from another side, I wish that you could have left yourself an option instead of rushing to grow.''

A silence suddenly became evident as none of them spoke until he heard her voice again. ''I had no other option. I needed to grow because of the amount of power I had was already painfully squished inside my own body. Cethin, even tho I grew up, give me time...''

''You little fool. Time is what I have plenty. I can wait for you forever.'' He poked her cheek and smiled. To him, nothing is too dark, so actually he could see her face like someone on a bright sunny day. After all his powers...

Kendra felt comfortable in his hug. He cradled her into his arms so she felt weightless. She closed her eyes and started cultivating. If other cultivators saw them, they would wonder. Most cultivators choose to cultivate alone as then the concentration was highest. But these two people just quietly hugged each other while strange space around them started pulsing like their hearts.

Kendra opened on the moment her eyes and smiled again. ''Indeed...'' And then went deep into concentration.

Cethin just looked at her and finally smile appeared on his beautiful lips. Thank you for trusting me. Just relax and let yourself float. I am here. I am here...

Many days, or weeks later the two people appeared again and were pleasantly surprised. Sarah really restructured everything and everyone. She realized that being human has its advantages but as well as boundaries. So she trained them just for short while every morning and rest of the day, they can choose to do some questing or cultivate or like this girl that happily rushed down the long bridge towards the village, visiting parents or family members.

In her case, it was a young man that hugged her tightly and went away while she happily clung onto his arm. ''What do you think? Brother or boyfriend?''

Cethin shrugged. "Does it really matter?"

Kendra gave him stare and he sighed with exaggeration. "Fineeee. Let me see." But she pinched him.

''Why see? Just by the way they are standing try to make a logical explanation?'' She found it funny. Cethin was really low on EQ on anyone else than her.

He sighed. ''She does hold him by hand but the way her posture is, it can be both, boyfriend or family. I'll just guess. He is her family?''

Kendra smiled and shook her head. ''Neither one actually.''

Cethin looked at her with astonishment. ''Neither one?''

She smiled. ''Human connections can't be always defined as such close thing. He might be her childhood friend that she grew up with, or someone she liked a longer time, or just someone she wants to leech off. There are many more variables. Maybe someone who helped her or her family so it became almost as a brother, or someone her family sent as her future partner so she wants to give him a chance. And many more.''

She turned her head and smiled at his surprised expression. ''You can't think that all relationsh.i.p.s are based only on family or direct relationship. There are many more connections that are sometimes just unexplainable.''

He suddenly hugged her and pointed at her nose. ''Somehow I have a feeling you are trying to explain something. And it has to do with Marcus...''

Kendra smiled at him. ''Me and Marcus, are and will always be tightly connected. That connection, you will never be able to change. If you plan to spend eternity with me, accept it.''

She then turned her head and floated to the island where a bunch of cultivators walked around and discussed fiery about many different things. Some stood even in enclosed spaces while explaining something and showing the powers and their understanding while others pointed out their ways of doing things.

Cethin stood there and almost got dizzy. ''What is this mess?''

Kendra had the happiest smile on her face for a long time. ''Finally, finally...''

''What finally? They are so messy. Running around and arguing and messing up the way someone is doing things.'' He saw a young man that started doubting his way of doing cultivation and power surge.

''Yes. They should doubt it. And doubt it again. This messiness later will calm down. They need to think about all the information they got for their own power and just try all. If they feel most comfortable with their own that means that one is the most powerful. But sometimes the ideas from other people can enlarge its own perspective.'' She could see the same young man standing there and then sitting down while the crowd around him became suddenly quiet.

That was the rule. The moment the cultivator sits down they have to quiet down so he can concentrate and use his newly found knowledge. He was earth user so as he concentrated a bit of earth under him suddenly surged up in spikes, but spikes suddenly changed into a sort of tentacles that wiggled around searching for something. 

He used the previous situation to get this idea and everyone saw that in astonishment. The young man smiled and opened his eyes. Everyone looked at him and loud applause could be heard. ''Well done! You did it! You handled it well!'' When he got out of the room everyone patted his shoulders and next earth user entered. He voiced his idea and suddenly a surge of information started falling on his head while Cethin stood there completely frozen.

''Now I understand. They have an idea, enter the room and actually ask for help to make their idea come to reality?'' He was seriously astonished.

Kendra nodded. ''In just short time they are already this far. I think they will learn from each other so much. There is this new rule. If they are not in the cultivation room, they can or go out the sect and enlarge their views or they can help others with their ideas.'' She pointed at the sand hour. ''Do you see sand inside that? When the last sand drops they have to stop and think until the next day. Those that went inside the room just before the last sand dropped would have the right to enter the information rooms right away. This will be arranged only every three days. Like that it will be always someone who wants to help and always someone who needs help or information.''

Looking at them happily helping each other Cethin sighed. ''They learned more from each other in these few weeks than some clans, sects, and schools in millennia. This is something new. But can others see this and hear them as we do?''

He saw a few people floating on their sacred weapons and staring at the island.

Kendra just smirked as they notice the two of them. "Leave and tell your people. Grounding fairy sect has changed."

She waved her hand and then they disappeared. Her eyes turned cold. ''Now real battle will start.''
