Chapter 20: Breathing Method
Lia sat on a chair in the training ground, reading a book Kael had given her while she waited for Azrael to come out.
The book she was reading was the same one Azrael had read earlier, and much like him, she now wore a blank expression on her face after reaching the ending, as if wondering why she had wasted a few hours of her precious life on this nonsense.
"I need to tell My Lady about this..." Lia sighed, seriously considering filing a complaint against Kael.
She put the book away and looked at the closed door of the training room with a frown.
"It’s already been three hours, and he is still inside..." She muttered as she walked over to the training room and checked the statistics on the small screen attached beside the door.
"According to the monitoring device, there is nothing wrong with the Young Lord... Then why hasn’t he come out even after three hours?"
There was a reason why Lia had tried to stop Azrael from learning the breathing method.
First, it was not easy for an Unawakened person to locate primary energy veins.
Searching for primary energy veins consumed a great deal of mental power, and the mental strength of someone who hadn’t awakened yet was usually quite weak, unable to sustain such a drain for long periods.
Not only that, even if by sheer luck they managed to find a primary energy vein, they would still need to guide the cosmic energy through it using their mental strength in order to refine it.
