Akira gripped his fist tightly, slowly focusing his strength into one single limb just like Tatsuya had shown him.
He could feel the power building, muscles tensing, spiritual energy starting to flow.
Before he could launch the punch, Kairo suddenly jumped in with a bright smile.
”Hold it right there!”
Saki angrily shot up from her seat.
“I was waiting for that!
Sensei, why are you—!”
Kairo raised his hand, shutting her off mid-sentence.
“Later, Saki-chan.”
He stood up properly, brushing dust from his uniform.
“We can’t do this here.
Kinetic Blast is extremely destructive.
A full-powered one could easily destroy an entire training room… or even a mountain block depending on how strong you are and how fast you accelerate the flow.”
Tatsuya crossed his arms, listening quietly with a serious expression.
Akira blinked in confusion, still holding his half-charged stance.
Kairo continued casually, “That’s why I think it’s better if one of my friends helps train you and Saki properly.
His name is Damien.
He’s officially Grade B, but he was offered promotion to Grade A.
He turned it down.”
Akira tilted his head.
“Why would he refuse a promotion?”
“Because he’s Damien.
A tired, grumpy, and completely nonchalant guy.
Looks like he hasn’t slept in three days, always complaining… but I acknowledge his strength.
His calculations are precise, and his teamwork is flawless.
His personal technique is called Weak Point.”
Kairo tapped his own forehead as he explained.
“Weak Point lets him instantly analyze and strike the exact vulnerabilities in any opponent — whether it’s a demon’s core, a spiritual barrier’s flaw, or even the weak joint in someone’s technique.
He doesn’t waste energy.
Every hit counts.”
He grinned wider.
“Oh, and here’s the best part — Damien holds the record for four consecutive Kinetic Blasts.
The biggest chain of consecutive Kinetic Blasts ever recorded in exorcist history.
The guy’s a monster when he actually tries.”
Saki frowned deeply.
“Damien… That slacker?
You’re really calling him for this?”
Kairo laughed.
“Exactly!
He’s perfect for this kind of training. Visit g.com for the full chapter.
Lazy but terrifyingly effective.
I’ll contact him tonight.”
Akira lowered his fist, feeling both nervous and excited.
The red scarf around his neck shifted slightly as a faint pulse of interest came from Gashin deep inside.
Tatsuya gave a small nod of approval.
“If Damien’s involved, this training won’t be boring.”
Haruto pumped his fist.
“This is getting intense!”
Yumi adjusted her glasses.
“Four consecutive Kinetic Blasts… That’s impressive.”
Rika smirked.
“I wanna see that.”
Ren stayed quiet, but his eyes showed clear curiosity.
Kairo stretched his arms lazily.
“Alright!
That’s enough for today.
Go rest up.
Tomorrow’s going to be fun.”
As the group started dispersing, Akira couldn’t help but wonder what kind of person this Damien was — and whether he could keep up.
