Brodwin City, 18th March, 501
The moment the sun emerges, Alan steps out of his apartment. In a few minutes, he is in a secluded place inside the park. A small empty ground surrounded by large trees. He for the past six years, made this place his training ground.
He takes a deep breath and first does a simple stretching exercise to warm up his body. And five minutes later, he started his real training. After three hours, he feels his body strain to the limit, and any other day, he would stop at this moment.
But today he feels something inside his body stirring. From a long sleep, it is walking up and his intuition tells him that if he doesn't wake it up today, then the next time it will awaken may be a long time later.
So, he continues his training, and a light drizzle starts to fall, but he doesn't stop. The light drizzle turned into a downpour, soaking him wet. His white skin turns beet red, and groans of pain start escaping his mouth, but there is still no sign of stopping.
Alan feels his body screaming for him to stop, but with his willpower, he continues. He can feel a pressure forming inside waiting to be unleashed, and it could be any moment, and stopping now would do him no good.
As the pressure could not be released, and collapsed inside his body. That may cause serious injury, so he cannot stop for any reason other than that the world is getting destroyed. And then it happened with a warning; he felt a warm and soothing energy spread around his body.
Then, as he stops, falls to his knees, headfirst on the muddy ground, and loses consciousness. The next moment, he wakes up, the first thing he notices the rain has stopped, and then a sharp, biting sensation spreads inside his stomach because of hunger.
Scrambling upright, he notices the mud covering his clothes. He quickly changed his clothes, with the change he bought. After every training, his clothes get soaked with sweat and smell. So, every time he comes to train, he brings a change of clothes.
He still a stench coming from his body; the rain, and even the change of clothes didn't make the smell coming from his body disappear." I cannot enter an eatery with this smell. Looks like I have to return to my apartment." He starts moving, or it could be said he runs at his full speed, as the pain from the hunger is becoming unbearable.
He doesn't even take the lift to reach the floor of his room. He takes the stairs and climbs to the 15th floor to enter his room. Inside, he opens his fridge and dives into the food that could be eaten. After eating them, he empties bottles of different sauces inside his body and then eats the raw vegetable, and then he feels some of his hunger fade away.
He takes his phone to order some food, and then he sees multiple missed calls from lawyer Kristyn. Then he recalls today at 10 AM, Marcus's case, and looks at the time: 12.56 PM. The case has already been heard, and a call to Kristy is needed to hear the result of the hearing.
The phone rings, and moments later, Kristy picks up the call. Alan first said sorry that he didn't pick up her calls and then asked about the result of the case. And hears that two weeks later, the case will be heard again, and if there are no changes then at that the judge will deliver his judgment.
Alan thanks her and ends the call. Next, he ordered food and went to clean the stench from his body. A couple of hours later, lying on his bed, he feels his body change. He is already aware that his strength has increased by five times. He can now defeat five or more of himself before.
But what draws his attention is not the increase in his body strength or even the power of his mind. He senses inside his body a warm, soothing current circulating through his body, moving from one cell to another.
With the power of his mind, he can control the energy. The energy comes from the cells, so he decided to name it cellular energy. The cellular energy can also block the black energy from entering his body, only for a moment. Because now the energy is pitifully small.
He feels his ability has also improved and cannot wait to try on someone. But it's risky doing it in the open. So, he decides to try it on the last patient today, inside his office no one would find out what he did and he choose the last patient because if it consumes his power of mind, he can rest.
There is still some time before he has to arrive at his clinic. So, he continues lying on the bed, and before he can close his eyes. He thought of something that he may not be the only extraordinary person in the world.
Cellular energy is formed from his cell's energy. His body is not different from any other human's body in the world. Which means if any train their body like him, then they would also be able to form their cellular energy. But the number must be pitifully small, as he knows he would never be able to form the cellular energy if black energy started to enter his body.
Which means if he could find them, he could know what the next step would be. Will he continue to train his body or find another way to increase his cellular energy? He starts wondering how he could increase his cellular energy.
One way he is already improving is by enhancing his body, which will continue to increase his cellular energy. He will likely continue to work in this way, but he needs another approach to further boost his cellular energy.
The black energy present around the world helps him improve his body and is the reason behind his cellular energy. He could try to find out if he can directly absorb the black energy into his cellular energy. But that could be dangerous as he starts training his body to consume the black energy his body.
The black energy affects his emotions, making him lose control over them. And if he consumes the black energy to grow his cellular energy then the black energy could in affect the cellular energy then it would be fun. His situation would turn worse.
If he can find a way to purify his cellular energy, then he may be able to absorb the black energy. He continued thinking about how to increase his cellular energy, but he had little knowledge about it. So, he is not able to think of a feasible way, and then the time comes when he has to leave for his work.
In his office, he sees one patient's problem after another, and using his ability to read their thought, he helps them deal with their worry or trauma. He sees patients today without any rest and not stopping for a moment. So, his power of mind could recover, but today he didn't feel a moment when his head throbbed.
And then the last person entered his room, a middle-aged man. After the man takes his seat opposite him. Alan uses his ability this time with the cellular energy to support increasing the power of the mind.
The next moment, with the power of his mind, he feels the mind of the man. While the man talks, Alan's power of mind surrounds the man's mind and slowly enters it.
The man suddenly freezes mid-sentence, and a dull look takes over his face. Alan can feel he has gained control over the man's body. But for a short time, his power of mind and cellular energy is consumed rapidly. Alan commands the man to forget the last minute of his memory and then releases his control over him.
The man jolts awake and looks around with consuming." Did I fall asleep?"
Alan's inquiring eyes look at the man to check if the man remembers the past few minutes. "Yes."
The man frowns." Why did you not wake me up?"
Alan uses his ability to sense the man's surface and gets confirmation that the man forgot the minutes he was told to forget. "You fell asleep mid-sentence. I thought you needed rest."
The man frowns." It never happens that I suddenly fall asleep."
Alan shrugs, and the man leaves after a few minutes. He too returned home after a few minutes. While watching TV, Alan start thinking, if he takes control over other people body then why can't take control of his body.
If he controls every function of his body, then it would increase his understanding, and he would be able to find a way to improve his body in a targeted way. Closing his eyes, leaning back, the power of his body starts to feel his own body.
