Chapter-43: What do you think about it?

"Haa! Haa! Haa! Haah!"

A teen boy was doing his everyday shadow boxing.

"Not like this, your leg should be like this and hand should like this."

Another man beside him correcting his posture even it is 1cm wrong than the usual one.

"O-ok, dad."

Saying that the teen done couple move correct one and again go back to his slightly wrong move.

"You fool! You are doing this correct for two moves and go back to old posture."

The man smacked on his head. And that teen replied with teary eyes yet with resolute voice.

"My mistake, this time I will do it correctly."

I was looking at the practice routine of my uncle and his son in another word my cousin.

By the way, I am taking the appearance of my old look, I will disclose my changed form of Otsutsuki like when times are good and in place.

"YOU FOOOOOOL!!!!! YOUR POSTURE BROKE AGAIN!!! Go take 500 laps as punishment."

"I am sorry, father. I am useless. I except my punishment."

Saying that my 15 years old cousin Jackie Tiger run out from our training ground and finally went out from mansion to run 500 laps around our village.

Seeing their exchange I can't help but remember Might Gai and Rock Lee's relationship on them.

Well, though my uncle doesn't match up to Might Gai except for his competitive nature, the life circumstances of Jackie certainly matches with Rock Lee.

Rock Lee can't use genjutsu and ninjutsu, similarly, Jackie cannot use any magic skill because he doesn't have any magic power.

In this world magic power is the source of domination, only 0.0001% population doesn't have magic power at all, unfortunately, Jackie is one of them.

That's the reason despite being 15 years old he didn't accept by any academy which is based on magic in first place. Even to become a magic researcher like me, need to have significant magic power.

But his willpower was good, and never give up in pursuit of power. He started to train physical arts from his father who was number one in our clan in term of physical power.

Back in the academy, I also research on them who don't have any magic. My goal was to inject magic on them from outside, regardless to say, all of my research failed.

But, I think I have a way now to boost his power.

I went in front of my uncle and asked him,

"What do you think? Will he be able to progress his strength greatly?"

Hearing my question he didn't reply. He took a chair to sit, and sigh.

He pours tea from the teapot and started to sip. Looks like he got dispirited hearing my question.

"I don't think he will gain great strength in the future. And you know it better than anyone. Without magic, It's impossible to grow into a powerful man."

He answered me that while having the face of pity.

"Indeed, I know."

I agreed with him without consoling or showing pity.

"Even if I and Brother help him, his longevity would be up to hundred years at most."

More magic power you have, more longevity you got. That's the truth set by the principle of nature. Mortals cannot go against that.

"Then, how about it? Let me show you physical prowess that will go beyond any ordinary magic."

He looked at me with the serious eyes. My uncle wasn't a serious man, he always likes to keep easygoing mode. But hearing my sentence, he showed his rare serious face.

"I really hope, it's not blubber of a mad researcher."

Mad researcher, this title I got from him when I first-time research magic with alchemy which exploded entire room, while I barely survived by luck.

"Oh, you will see, soon enough."

I was wearing a leather jacket on my top because It's somewhat cold today, though I don't feel any cold or something, however for showing off to other I wore one. Taking off that jacket I gave it to Uncle to hold on.

I went in front of an iron dummy.

"Don't tell me, you are going to punch that without using magic? I am telling you shouldn't do that. You were never a physical type warrior."

Following me from behind he told me.

"Don't worry, just watch."

"Cheh, no respect. Well, do whatever you want brat"

Though I can destroy this piece of iron just with my eye, I need to use something else to show my dear uncle.

I open 5th gate, the aura around me changed. There is green aura forming around my body. Though Lee's face would become burning red when using this, mine was unchanged.

I gave a grandiose punch on the Iron Dummy, it was strongly planted into the ground which is not easy to uproot. That's why it crooked 0 degrees and (bent) slammed down to the ground making huge thud noise.

After doing that when I looked back to Uncle his face was in utterly surprised.

This wasn't a normal dummy for him. Everyone knows that how much worth this dummy to him. From his childhood, he is practicing with this dummy. So he should be the one who knows about the stability of this dummy most.

"So, what do you think about it?"

"What was that?"

He asked that without coming back to reality.

"It was a magical skill but not with magic power. Wasn't it awesome?"

His mouth was in a gap. Coming to in his sense, he said,

"You didn't use any magic power. But it was such destructive power and aura that won't lose to any magic skill."

I let out a mischievous smile that I practiced for years,

[AN: of course, it was a lame joke from MC.]

"Let me tell you, this is not all of it this skill does. It's a far more powerful skill that you have ever seen in your life. Of course, there are risks but the benefit is more than that risk."

He closed his eyes and trying to comprehend my word. After calculating his decision, asked me with sharp eyes,

"Will he be able to use this skill and show the same destructive power?"

Yes, that's what I want to be asked.

"Of course he can. I will assure you, it was 100% without magic."

He gave back my jacket,

"Then my son is in your hand."

"Mark my word, I will make him someone great."

Saying that I start to walk off from the training ground.

"Thank you."

His appreciation word came from behind.

Well then, the first member of my elite force was secured. Now the time to recruit others.

[AN: Trivia- Rock Lee name was taken from Bruce Lee, I did the same but from another star, Jackie Tiger is taken from Jackie Chen.]
