CHAPTER 19 - UNBREAKABLE
I tried to punch this pillar of ice with my physical strength enhanced to beyond peak levels yet so far, there has been no progress.
Technically, I could punch a hole on this frozen watered tower like structure with a single strike.
What kind of sorcery is this?
Seeing that I made no progress, I stood back with both of my hands on my hips, clicking my tongue as I gazed at this fortified tower. Should I use a fire type skill?
It would be the most appropriate choice at first since fire can melt ice, obviously, but after I encountered this... strange thing... back at the tunnels, I'm not so sure myself whether I burned it in a crisp or blast it with high temperature flame.
What am I doing? This is not the time for second thoughts. I need to save the girl trapped inside!
On my wrists, four red orange light ring-like circles appeared together with two small ball of fires on my palms. the flames were burning very violently as the light emanated by them reflected on the casings of ice covered area.
The two small flames dance around each other as they got closer and closer to each other. In a second, the two ball of fires fused together, creating a single entity. I then began increasing its size by fusing more refined ether into it.
As it grew larger and larger by an inch in every second, another ring-like circles emitting yellow light emerged from my wrists. I activated [Activation], a skill that allows me to induce and improve the efficiency of any type of activity which in this case, the flame's intensity.
As it grew large enough to my taste, I quickly find a suitable area where to release this miniature sun.
Like I would release this type of energy where the trapped girl is placed. I don't want to burned or blast her into pieces just because of my carelessness.
Now where should I aim this thing? Hmm...

I was looking at the upper part of this crystallized pillar.
"That should be a perfect spot. [Great Fire Ball]!"
I threw the great ball of fire towards the upper part of the ice pillar. As my fire skill came into contact with the pillar's surface, it created a loud noise that reverberated around the surroundings. The impact made the crystallized room to shake.
"Eh?"
To my surprise there was no explosion of some sort. Instead, the [Great Fire Ball] that I threw shrank and dissipated very quickly upon contact. From the target area, several large icicle spikes began to emerge like bean sprouts on steroids.
I gaped for a moment with my arms drooping on the ground. An ice that assimilates flame upon contact...
This is awesome!
Wait. Why am I rejoicing!?
------
I tried again to land my [Great Fire Ball] which I enhanced further from the one that I used previously, yet the results were still the same.
Now the upper part of the tower were filled with large icicle spikes growing on its surfaces. But this time, the spikes were more larger and bigger than before.
Looks like the stronger the fire based skill I use, the larger and bigger the icicles sprouted on its surfaces would become. I sat cross-legged on the icy floor as I think of another way in dealing this flame eating ice pillar.
Hmm... Aside from melting it with fire, what are other factors that could destabilized ice's structure?
If I could only shatter it from the inside... Shatter... Inside... Shatter?
Vibrations!
I do recall from one of my science class teachers that sound waves with higher intensity and speed could cause the ice to shatter.
Okay let's do that!
Using my > window, I searched for any sound based skills under both of my > and > abilities. Luckily I've found it under the > ability diagram.
Sonokinesis
The ability to manipulate sound and sound waves
Under [Sonokinises], I've found some cool skills:
1. Sonic Stimulation - enhance one's physiology using sound waves.
2. Sound Nullification - negate sounds.

3. Sonic Construct - create objects using sound waves.
4. Sonic Flight - fly by using sound.
5. Sound Absorption - absorbs sound.
6. Sound Amplification - increase strength, duration and potential of sound.
7. Sound Sculpting - sculpts/shapes sounds and ambient noises.
8. Sonic Healing - heals using sound waves.
9. Sonoportation - teleport using sound.
10. Sound Aura - surround oneself in sound waves.
11. Sound Vibration - vibrates sound waves.
With no time to waste I activated [Sonic Stimulation] on myself. In an instant, it felt like my whole body become stronger and invigorated as it was bathe in sound waves. Not to mention that [Enhanced Condition] is still in effect.
Man, this felt good.
Okay now for round three.
"[Sound Vibration]!"
The sound waves covering my frame then began to tremble in a sudden pace as it produce a shivering noise. I walked nearer the pillar and placed my vibrating hands on its surface.
*RRRRRRR*
As I stood there while placing my hand, I could hear some creaking sound on the ice pillar. Hah! It's working! In due time this flame eating ice pillar will bow down to me.
"Let's make this quick. [Sound Amplification]!"
The vibrating sounds around my palms and body began to shake violently as the energy that they emitted began surged around the room. The ice pillar's structure began to show some signs of change but its appearance...
"The heck!?"
I was infuriated when I saw the drastic change of the tower. Somehow its surface began to glow more and it surface become smoother. The jagged and uneven edges that it had before were now long gone. The icicle spikes on its surface looked like a polished ice swords... more glossier...
The structure went under a major appearance enhancement!
Once again, I stared at it with mouth wide open and in disbelief. The thing used my sound based skills to beautified itself like a skin care product. What's with this thing?
I tried again but it appeared to glow more in vibrant radiance. It felt like I'm watering a greedy plant...
Damn it... Looks like I've got no choice but to fight fire with fire. If I can't break this thing using sound vibrations and fire blasts then I'm going to manipulate this frozen bastard. Advertisement Previous

Prime Magus of Earth
"In the beginning, I had no idea what was going on. My brother and friends were gone, my sight was gone, and yet I still saw things, things about this world that no one else knew. I'm not special, or gifted, anyone could have done what I did. I just got lucky, especially after everything that happened afterwards. Magic already existed, it always had. Humans just didn't know how to do it, didn't know how to nuture that small spark in them. Now you do." - Prime Magus of Earth, Alexander Sorin. November 2021 Update: So, it has been four years since I stopped working on this. Reading back, the first "book" is finished. It has what feels like an ending to an arc. Now it isn't a perfect story but I still like it and I can see myself starting the second book, might even this on Amazon or something. My biggest regret was never coming up with artwork for the cover though. Maybe I'll look into it.
