Kiro craned his neck in different directions trying to pinpoint where the voice had come from but he couldn't see anything. He was more pissed that this thing interrupted his breakthrough. He was this close from using lightning to control a bigger animal.
"Who dares interrupt my training?" He shot back.
At first nothing happened, but a gust of wind appeared out of nowhere. Blowing both of them and planting their faces onto the walls with such unbelievable speed they couldn't dodge.
"Dammit, that hurt!"
"Are you supposed to be my descendant? How disappointing." The voice said again.
But now, a figure appeared before them. He was a feast for eyes, an extremely beautiful man with fair skin, but he had a tail. He put the golden room to shame by how divine he felt. He was tall, so tall Kiro had to prop his head up just to look at him in the face.
"You're an interesting one, you've tamed the king of the Underworld yet you're weaker than it. How cunning." He said amused.
"Hubris and I are bonded by something you could never understand, I didn't trick him to accept me." He said, putting too much stress on each syllable, he propped himself up. "What are you anyway? What do you want?"
"Are you blind? I'm your ancestor, you dimwit and this is my space, of course I don't use it anymore but I don't like people playing with my toys, even those I've tossed aside."
Kiro looked at the thing in front of him, he couldn't believe it was way stronger than Hubris. He thought they could take it. It was him that created the temple which messed with Hubris the most. Even now, he didn't have to look at him, he could feel how restless he was.
"Why is my mount so restless in your presence?"
He looked at Hubris greatly amused, Hubris looked like he was attempting everything in his power to cling onto his sanity. With much pitty, he did something with his hand, and immediately Hubris looked like he'd been relieved of a longstanding inner conflict.
"Don't even think about it young one, it would explode within a second of Kaos entering it." He told him sagely with his eyes closed as if he was taking a nap. "To answer your trivial question, create energy veins of course." He said like it was the most obvious thing.
"How?"
"Same way you subdued the energy which I created."
Kiro stopped himself from almost rolling his eyes. This god in front of him wasn't helpful, he was only good at bragging and telling him stories that feed his ego. He sat down, intending to meditate.
"I'll give you the temple by the way, call it your inheritance or whatever descendants receive from their ancestors."
"Do you mind? I need to meditate." Kiro didn't exactly want this rundown temple, he had no idea what he'd do with it, most of all, he wanted to go home.
He looked at him pitifully, "can't you do one thing impressively? Why do you need that much concentration just to enter the state of nothingness?"
Kiro ignored him, as he showed off, going in and out of the meditative state like he was switching a light, on and off.
When Kiro entered his, the monkey King couldn't help but be impressed. As unorganised as the kid was, he managed to create an actual world within his mental space.
That was by far the hardest, he was an awe about how he wasn't able to create energy veins all on his own, that was the most simple thing.
What was amazing was the fact that he wasn't sitting anymore, he was standing yet he was able to slip into a meditative state. He didn't waste any time and got to work immediately.
He watched his blood stream, watching how his natural viens acted, carrying his blood to various places in his body. He was observing everything they did, in hopes he could replicate and create his own veins.
