Mythology: Ragnarok

Agreed explained, "This inspiration came from someone else. The body is like a water glass, and the soul is the water that the glass holds. So the reason why the soul leaves the body is that the body's capacity cannot hold the huge soul, causing the 'water' to overflow. The key to solving the problem is to increase the capacity and structure of the 'glass,' and then the overflow problem will naturally be solved."

Presidian listened to Agreed's explanation and nodded repeatedly, saying, "That makes sense, but we still need to do some specific testing to know if it will work. But... where can we find a method to cultivate battle qi?"

Just then, Agreed seemed to suddenly remember something, and said with a wicked smile, "I think I happen to know where to find such a person."

……

"You want to learn internal energy from me?!" The young man looked at Agreed in surprise and asked doubtfully.

It turned out that the person Agreed was talking about was the mysterious young man from the Church of Light. To resolve his doubts, Agreed disregarded his deep-seated hatred and went directly to the young man from the Church of Light, hoping that he could teach him the methods of cultivating the physical body.

Agreed nodded and said, "I can pay the tuition. You can make any request. As long as you're willing to teach me, I'll agree to any conditions."

The young man said with some helplessness, "You're a magician, why do you suddenly want to learn internal energy?"

Agreed lied and said, "My talent is limited, and no matter how hard I practice, I can't make any progress. So I hope to find a breakthrough through other paths."

Upon hearing this, the young man said with some disdain, "Giving up halfway is not a good habit. You are not suited for the path of internal energy cultivation. Please leave." After saying that, he turned around and ignored Agreed.

Agreed shouted, "How can you be so sure I can't do it? Maybe I can become even better than you someday."

The young man frowned upon hearing this, turned around, and said, "Internal strength isn't as simple as you think. Since you want to learn, fine, as long as you can defeat me, I'll teach you, how about that?"

Agreed's lips twitched. "If I beat you, would I teach a normal person? If I beat you, would I need to learn your stuff?"

However, Agreed knew that this was him trying to dissuade him, so Agreed readily agreed and said, "It's a deal, but you didn't say what means you'd use to defeat me. If I use magic, don't say I'm bullying you."

The young man scoffed, found an open space, and stood a hundred meters away from Agredra, saying, "I won't bully you. Let's fight to the death right here. If you lose, don't bother me again!"

Agreed agreed, "Okay, but if you lose, you have to teach me how to cultivate internal energy."

The two men faced each other from a distance, their swords drawn, when the young man shouted, and the battle began!

The young man charged forward with his sword, his speed instantly breaking the sound barrier as he sped towards the finish line, fueled by his inner strength. At that very moment, Agred instantly cast the spell 'Ice Needle' at the young man.

The young man had no time to dodge and could only urge his sword to parry. The ice needles struck the sword without causing any damage, but the young man's acceleration was interrupted. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Agreed used the spell 'Windwalk' to create distance from him and used earth elemental magic to pull the young man's feet into the ground, temporarily controlling his movements.

Seeing this, the young man swung his sword and unleashed a massive sword aura that struck Agreed. Agreed, realizing he couldn't dodge this wide-range attack, quickly activated a protective spell to withstand the blow. He then used the momentum to fly backward and create distance before chanting the fifth-tier spell 'Rock Formation'.

Huge, irregular stone spikes shot out from under the youth's feet one after another. The youth quickly dodged, slashed with his sword, or used his movement skills to avoid the spell. He narrowly caught the spell, but at the same time, Agred exhausted his soul and finished chanting the sixth-order spell 'Thunder'. The thunder rushed towards the youth with unstoppable force.

The young man shouted and released his inner strength. At the same time, the special ability of his armor was activated. Although his whole body was slashed and cracked, he still managed to withstand the terrible attack magic. After that, the young man rushed in front of Agrede again and swung his sword to cut. Unfortunately, the young man did not notice that Agrede had put on sunglasses at some point.

The 'Blinding' spell that Agred had been holding was instantly unleashed, and the bright light directly robbed the young man of his sight. Although he still managed to attack the location where Agred had just been, as expected, all his attacks missed.

Immediately afterward, the young man suffered from the aftereffects of being struck by lightning—paralysis. The powerful electric current made him unable to move freely and even temporarily lose control of his body. Agreed took out his wand, which once again condensed a lightning orb ready to be unleashed, and pointed it at the young man, saying, "You've already lost. Surrender."

The young man roared in frustration, and at the same time, the sword in his hand suddenly unleashed an unparalleled energy that sent Agreed flying. Just then, Tutankhamun, who had not appeared for a long time from within Agreed's pendant, suddenly flew out and shouted, "This is the aura of the World Tree! A divine artifact! The aura of a divine artifact! Boy, take that sword from his hand!"

Argreed ignored Tutankhamun's words and watched with a solemn expression as the young man threw the 'Thunder' orb in his hand. Unexpectedly, the thunder was instantly absorbed by the sword. Then the young man moved and arrived in front of Argreed in the blink of an eye, leaving countless sparks of lightning in his wake. Argreed could see clearly that the young man had used the electricity of the thunder to accelerate himself!

The young man who arrived in an instant swung his sword at Agred's head. Agred instantly cast his self-created third-tier spell 'Exploding Hurricane'. A whirlwind quickly formed between the two and then exploded with tremendous force, blowing them both away at the same time. This allowed Agred to narrowly dodge the fatal blow, but the tip of the sword still left a bloody mark on Agred's neck.

The young man roared angrily, and strange red energy appeared on his body, transforming into a huge energy blade that struck Agreed. In that instant, Agreed felt that he was infinitely close to death. Without hesitation, he took out the eighth-tier defensive magic scroll 'Absolute Protection' that he had been holding in his hand. After tearing it open, six layers of gray-white protective shields appeared in front of Agreed. However, the energy blade easily tore through the shields layer by layer until the last layer exploded. A powerful light flashed out and sent Agreed flying.

After unleashing that sword strike, the young man collapsed to the ground, exhausted. However, he had recovered from his previous irrational state. Agreed, who had been severely injured by the sword strike, struggled to his feet and staggered to the young man's side, pointing at him and saying, "You still lost. Let's get acquainted. My name is Agreed Reiler."

The young man looked at him and suddenly laughed, praising him, "You're really strong. Good, I like to be friends with strong people. My name is Pushkin Salvia Cain."

But just then, Presidian and the other mentors were drawn by the loud fighting noise. Tutankhamun quickly retreated back into his pendant, and the elders of the Church of Light also arrived. Naturally, this caused an argument between the two sides, but after Pushkin and Agreed explained, it was eventually treated as a friendly spar and the matter was dropped.
