Rise of the Three Gods

Chapter 7: 6 Years

Chapter 7: 6 Years

6 years have gone by, during the first 2 years, the trio was managing 2 primary tasks set by them. First look for a fish called twin-tailed fish that was extremely helpful and nourishing for their baby sister. It could be considered as a half-strange beast. The problem was not killing it but finding it! One can never find it in the open sea, but nearby boulders in the sea. This is the reason they only managed to hunt 3, but this was already extravagant even for some noble families. One has to know they were really rare and this is why most never got them, even they themselves did not. They only heard elders talk about it when the birth of Ella was still the hot topic of the village so they decided to get it no matter what. As such Ella was one of the very few to enjoy this.

After 2 years could now speak more than other kids her age, the day when she called the trio was a happy yet sad and funny at the same time for them.

” Hey, little Ella , who am I?” asked Cross with a smile

” Big fat bro! big fat bro is strong!” replied Ella with a cute smile.

Cross wanted to cry but no tears came out .

“hahahahaha little Ella sure knows things for a small lady , she ‘s too smart hahaha” laughed Eric

” Big bad bro, don’t laugh at big fat bro!” Ella told Eric

tears formed at Eric’s eyes as he eyed Cross and getting a telepathic message ” hahaha u deserve it!”

” little Ella, who’s this?” asked Eric while pointing at Vince.

” Cool big bro! ” and she ran to Vince and hugged him .

Vince smiled and pick her up playing with her nose and petting her head causing her to giggle.

Eric and Cross looked at each and Said telepathically ” WTF! why?!”

The second task was to look for strange beasts and get stronger. In 2 years they hunted 10 beasts! they actually raided the nearby mountain of all its strange beasts. by the time they were 10 years old, no one could match them anymore, not even their father. Of course, no one knew about their true abilities as they always did this in secret . The twin tailed fish was easy to handle compared to strange beasts.

They had hunted 1 bull, 2 tigers, 2 panthers 2 eagles, 1 snake, 1 wolf and strange fish, yes, a strange beast of the ocean. the results they yielded are simply outstanding.

Vince can dash a hundred meters in 1s but it would take a toll on his body and leave him a bit exhausted and he knew he could not advance much more than this. As the stronger you get the more difficult it becomes to get stronger.

Cross got stronger as well and his skin was like iron-hard to injure. His speed did improve but not as much. but His strength now was not determined with no way to measure it .

Eric has gotten better at reflex and speed . his eyesight limited now to almost 10 km away.

Simply they all improved but they somehow reached a bottleneck of some kind not knowing how to break through it. but that does not mean they did not get an advantage, the bull and tiger gave strength, the panther gave speed and agility, The eagles eyesight and reflex, the Snake gave swiftness and elasticity , the wolf gave awareness and the fish gave an extremely good ability. The ability to last up to 5 min underwater , not breathing but somehow the pressure on their lungs was non-existent which made it easier to hold oxygen longer.

Knowing that strange beast could no longer help . They started strengthening their foundation! Vince got better at the sword with the help of the combination of wolf’s awareness and snake’s swiftness and tried to create moves with the sword to help him maximize his ability with the sword and he indeed managed to create a move . He called it ” curved sword” with the snaked elasticity as basis and speed as a core made the sword look like it curves around its target at an amazing speed. he also trained his feet, moving side to side, advancing and retreating, running down trees and walls yet managing to stand still upon impact made create a basic ability, yet really helpful he could change direction even when going at full speed but only once!

Cross trained his strength, he borrowed his father’s axe and started striking at rocks and boulders with the goal of not increasing strength but controlling it and doing maximum damage with it , he knew he could only bring 70% at most of his strength as such he decided to train to get 100%. the goal was that the strike would leave the stones with a clear smooth surface after the cut that’s when it was considered as a success.

Eric Got inspiration From Cross and Vince , so he tried to gather strength in his arms so that the arrow can much more speed and power of penetration behind it. He meditated a lot so that he can gather strength in his arms after the success he started developing a technique calling the triple strike. It was really hard! the purpose was to release three arrows but at speed and angle that made the target only see 1 arrow, one can imagine the speed of launching and precise control required.

During these 4 years one can see Ella growing into a beautiful little child she had red hair and blue eyes but she was sure to become even more beautiful than her mother! She always brought them fruits and drinks while they were training. Seeing her big brother, she trained a bit with them as well, they were all eager to share their knowledge with her but she did not like melee combat. This made Eric smile to no end but cried after telling him she did not like the bow.

They then asked her what she wanted to do and she replied by saying she just wanted to help and heal. and once while Vince was training the curved sword he injured his hands , Ella then ran to him and crying he tried to comfort her when he noticed a glow in her hands as she held his. he felt a comfortable heat and in a couple of seconds, the wound was gone. This surprised them to no end and they ran to their parents. Rolland laughed like mad yet again and told them they’ll know when they come of age . having no choice but to drop it they left but Ella was too happy she could now help her brothers!
