Chapter 93: Constitution Change And Rewards [3]
***
Amon pondered hard on which element to choose.
Considering he had 2 elemental points, he could choose Sound and Crystal together.
Crystal was a good choice for his defense because he was beaten up a lot of times for not having enough defense.
There was also Sound.
Sound was a perfect element for countering hard state elements like Earth and Ice as demonstrated by Daniel before.
Using his element, he had completely shattered the ice spikes of Elizabeth.
It was also very good for surprise attacks in close combat, especially so now that Daniel demonstrated using elemental mana to coat your fists.
He could deliver sonic booms to a person's body by just punching them, making them feel the force multiple times.
Ice manipulation was basically a useless choice as there was barely any place you could find it.
The only scenario where this would be useful was in cold places but that was a grave limitation compared to other good elements.
So that was a no.
But then, there were also 2-point elements.
The first option was Energy.
It was one of the most versatile elements out there.
Initially allowing him to control the energy in his and his opponents attacks, it would allow him to stack and even release it later on.
It was basically an extremely advanced version of mana manipulation.
Last time, the only reason he hadn't picked the element was because he felt his [Void] element would overlap with the Energy element, which was to destroy anything, even energy.
But this confusion was later cleared to him by Zephyra that he could use them both separately, and with enough mastery, the energies wouldn't overlap.
The only downside of the Energy element was that it consumed a lot of mana and it was extremely hard to control for the current him.
So, this time it was a very good choice.
Next was Gravity Manipulation.
Gravity manipulation didn't really appeal to him when compared with Energy.
Sure, it would make his enemies heavier and he could also make himself lighter as well using the element.
After this Void Training and Zephyra's explanation, he was made sure of one thing.
It was that he wasn't an Extra anymore in this world anymore. People were noticing him and
he was also getting involved in schemes.
Just cause he wasn't from this world didn't mean he was safe.
And because of that, he knew now that he would also have to act in Daniel's defeat.
He needed to fight and expose his powers. He needed to climb the ranks and get stronger.
He needed to accept being a part of this world now. He wasn't an orphan anymore.
He was Amon Ashford.
Daniel had him as a target in his eyes now. And to survive against him, he needed an element.
He was in desperate need of defense. Without it, he was getting obliterated. Gravity and Energy were going to be unable to counter his Sound element.
The former was especially useless because of the disparity in their strengths.
As such, he needed an element that would protect him against his sound element.
A defensive element.
And that was Crystal.
So, he had to let go of Energy and Gravity for now. He hoped they would be available in the
next choices.
He turned to Zephyra again.
"Can I stock my points?"
She shook his head causing him to click his tongue.
Well if he couldn't then...
That only left him with [Sound].
"Alright."
He turned to her.
"I'm done with my decision."
And he selected [Sound] and [Crystal].
