[You seem disappointed from my answers]
Lok glares at that person and says.
"Who wouldn't be? I am asking questions to clear my confusion but I am still as confused."
That person smiles at Lok answer.
[How is that my fault]
"..."
[Ok I will tell you everything in a simpler way for you]
"You should have done it sooner."
[First of all you can refer to me as unknown]
"Unknown? what type of name is it."
Lok tilts his head as that person replies.
[It is unknown because you don't know it]
[If you want to know my name you have to reach this place with your own power]
"My own power what do you mean?"
That person places his cup on the table and rests his face at top of his right palm.
[You reach this sea when your strength reach a certain level]
[And if you want to reach the end of this sea you have to be one of the strongest in all of the existence]
"So how many people have ever reached this place?"
[As for your answer less than fifteen people have ever set foot in this nameless island]
"Less than fifteen huh."
Lok ponders how strong one have to be to reach this place and asks.
"You talked about 'that guy' is he one of them."
That person nodes.
"Than how strong one have to be to set foot here for refrence."
[If I have to give a refrence for you to understand I will say you have to be on par with little blue]
"Little blue who is that?"
Lok asks in confusion.
[He is the guardian of this sea and you have already have met him]
Lok tries to understand that person words then he remembers the only thing he has seen in this sea is this person and that massive monster.
Lok shudders and then looks at that person and thinks how strong he have to be to call the massive monster 'little'. "
[You are one of the luckiest person]
"Why is it because I am still alive after seeing that monster?"
[That's right but can you stop calling him a monster]
"So what should I call him?"
[Little blue of course]
Lok looks at that person with strange eyes.
'Little my foot. If that thing is little then I don't even exist. And I almost died from his gaze alone."
[Now now he was only doing what he is supposed to do ]
[Reaching the skies here are forbidden and he didn't even do anything]
[You are the one who couldn't even withstand his gaze]
Lok does not say anything since he can't refute him. He almost died because that little blue simply looked at him.
"Why is it forbidden?"
[I will tell you when you reach this place on your own just understand horrors beyond your comprehension dwell there]
Lok wants ask more but he knows he can't. So he changes the topic.
"You said that I can get all the answers if I enter this nameless island with my own strength."
That person smiles as he looks at Lok's face amd noddes.
"How do I do that? and is the name of this island nameless island because I am not qualified to know its name?"
This time unknown shakes his head
[No name of this nameless island varies depending on who set foot here]
Lok listenes very attentively and asks.
"How?"
Unknown replies to Lok.
[It depend on the path you are walking]
Lok straches his head because he can't understand unknown.
[Don't think too much you will understand as you grow strong ]
[There is another reason I called you lucky]
[You don't know have many countless strong man wants to reach this place and countless among them even have perished before even setting there eyes on this place]
[But you.... your presence here is saying that what they persued all there life was utterly meaning less]
'Wow... I didn't knew how much of a big deal it was to reach this nameless island.'
[You would know if you ever set foot at beginning of this sea instead of setting foot at it's end]
Lok looks at unknown with calm eyes and says.
"You can read my mind."
Lok has forgotten the fact the he once read his mind.
[Is that supposed to be a question you already know the answer]
Lok keep looking at unknown and unknown just smiles.
[Whats the matter]
Lok doesn't say anything foe some time and unknown only smiles at him.
"You are different from the absolue being I imagined"
[What did you imagined me to be]
Lok doesn't say anything. He wants to say something but words does not come out of his mouth.
[Well it doesn't matter]
[I will only say if you think of me as your friend I am your closest friend. If you think me as your enemy you have chosen something worse than death]
Lok shudders as he listens to unknown's last words. Being his enemy is something that send chills into his entire being his mind don't even unconsciously wants to considere unknown as his enemy.
[All things aside its time to give you a body]
"A body?"
[Your soul need a vessel to contain it]
[If not for the influence of this sea your soul would have disappeared long ago]
"So how are you going to do it."
[It's simple just tell me what kind of body do you need]
Lok fell into thoughts.
[Take it as you are making a character for a game]
"And the one who control the game is you."
Lok make eye contact with unknown and says in a very serious tone.
[You can think whatever you want this is your freedom]
"..."
[And if you want obtain ultimate freedom get strong and take it yourself]
[Ultimate freedom this is what you desire right thats why you are here]
"..."
Lok does not say anything just stares at unknown for long time.
"Let's see make me very handsome with long black hair and brown eyes."
"I want my height to be six feet with muscular frame and I want my little brother to be ten inches when hard."
[Pfft]
"..."
[My apology It's just]
"No need to say it jut make me a body."
[Is that all think carefull you can only make a body only one time. Then it will be permanently one with your soul]
[Even if you die or reincornate again you will have the same type of body]
Lok again tries to think what more he wants.
[I forgot to say you can also have three talents]
"Can they be anytging?"
[It depends if at what kind of talent you if it cost a large amount of casuality I can only give you one]
"Casuality what is that."
[Take it as currency of a type]
Lok doesn't asks anymore and thinks what kind of talent he wants.
Few minutes later.
[Have you made a decision]
Lok noddes and says.
"I want a talent to convert any type of energy freely and have almost perfect control over energy."
[Why not completey perfect control?]
"I need room for improvement in my energy control."
Lok answers unknown's question at that answer unknown smiles and noddes.
[What is the last talent you want]
"I want a talent of copy. I want to be able to copy any technique I see and sense."
[Alright it's all I guess]
Lok noddes.
"Yes... If I were to say if you have to make a list of talent what rank would those talent reach."
Unknown thinks for a moment and replies to Lok.
[There are countless talent in all of existence I will rank them as such]
[Lowest, Low, Intermediate, High, Ultimate and Unique]
[Unique being highest and just as its name says a talent that is only one in all of existance]
"So what is the rank of my talents?"
[The rank of talent to copy is not set it depend on the user and technique]
[And most of all a unique talent and techniques can never be copied]
Lok does not say anything for few second.
"What about other two?"
[Those two can be considered unique talents]
"Doesn't that mean I am consuming a lot of Casuality."
[Since those two talents are interconnected you can think of them as a single talent so it's allright]
Lok listenes to Unknown's explanation and says.
"That will be all."
Unknown lifts his hand and snaps his finger.
[Snap!]
Sound of snapping echoes and crack starts to appear all over the space.
Lok startles and jumps up from his seat. But in next second entire space collapses and Lok starts to fall in darkness. As he is falling multicolored sea water appears around Lok. All the darkness disappeares as the multicolored water wraps Lok in a cocoon.
Lok's soul turns pitch black in the influence of water as Lok closes his eyes.
Inside cocoon Lok body starts to form. First silver bones appear then nurves and blood vessels after that internal organs then tendons and muscles are formed then everything is covered by a layer of white skin. Lok's pitch black soul is also merging with the body and a pitch black aura is released from the newly formed body and a massive pressure shakes the surroundings.
Then with a glance of unknown all the massive pressure disappeares.
Soon all the multicolored water is absorbed by Lok's newly formed body and he opens his eyes. Then he looks around with his brown eyes he is standing in same wooden room as before and in front of him unknown is sitting in his chair resting his face in palm of his hand.
[How does your new body feels]
Lok lifts his both hand clenches his finger tight and let go he repeats this few more time than he takes a step forward than backwords then he looks at his little brother as promised it is ten inches long when hard. His body has refined and strong muscles.
Next second clothes wrapes around his body and a mirror appears in front of his face.
[You should see how your body look]
Lok's reflection in the mirror has a striking and elegant appearance. He has long, flowing black hair that cascades past his shoulders, framing his handsome and refined face. His features are sharp and symmetrical, with a straight nose, defined jawline, and slightly arched brows. His expression is calm, collected, and slightly stern, giving him an aura of authority and mystery.
He is dressed in traditional, ornate robes, primarily in white with intricate black and dark designs embroidered on them. The robe has decorative patterns and symbols, suggesting a noble status. The layered clothing beneath is black with elegant detailing, adding to his dignified and regal presence.
Lok exudes a sense of power, wisdom, and refinement, almost like a nobleman, scholar, or high-ranking figure.
[Is your body to your taste]
Lok noddes vigorously.
"Yes.. I couldn't have asked for more. This body is just perfect."
[Now you should try your body too]
Exited Lok looks at unknown.
"How?"
[First you should know how to use your energy]
[Close your eyes and feel the connection between your soul and body]
Following unknown's instruction Lok closes his eyes and concentrates to find connection between his soul and body.
Beecause of his unique talent Lok is quickly able to find the connection.
[Now use your mind to draw the power of your soul into your right hand]
Lok uses his mind to move the energy of his soul. A pitch black energy concentrates in right hand.
[ Now clench your fist and through a punch at the ground]
Lok listens to unknown and slams his first hard on the ground.
The entire beach trembles and ground beneath the fist cracks from the force of the punch.
[Not bad now lets do another test]
Lok noddes at unknown and the shattered ground mends itself in an instant.
[Now think that energy is leaving your body from your right hand]
Lok do as unknown says a pitch black energy leaves from Lok's right hand.
[Now countol your energy and lift this cup]
Lok concotreates and spread his energy at the cup in front of unknown and he is able to lift it effortlessly in the air.
