《It's cause I'm a genius》Chapter 2
Advertisement
K can't see the bloodied body of his parents and brother as they are on the other side of the wall, but he seems to already know as he suddenly squeezes all of his I energy making his right arm have what looks like electricity around them except they are black.
While the energy was in his body and when he used it for healing it looked like green lightning but with the destructive setting it looked fearsome instead of calming. K ran forward and the robber shot him with the gun but K lunged forward taking the hit and slamming his fist into the robber's head.
The fist directly knocked him out. The robber would have died of brain damage if K had let the energy go into the robber's mind. After knocking the robber out K retrieved his energy and hurriedly directed it to the bullet hole in his stomach. Green lightning could be seen on the surface of the wound as the bullet got pushed off while he closed the door.
K then rushed to his family to see that while they were all shot none of them were insta kills which means he still had a chance to save them. He then directed his energy out of his body with as much intensity as he could to get their wounds closed.
He didn't even aim for a full recovery just stopping the bleeding was enough but even then he barely managed to do it before his face became pale, and he looked about to faint from the lack of energy.
K forced himself to stand up and with agonizing efforts pushed himself to get some ropes and bind the robber.( Again don't ask why he keeps ropes in his room. His room has so many weird things that a normal person would think that K is either a terrorist or a mentally ill person and I'd say he's the second)

After he was done with that he got his family to their beds and went to crash on his own bed. A few hrs later he woke up he went to see the robber trying to free himself from the chair. "Hi,you should stop. I'm looking for an excuse to kill you right now."said K.
" I don't believe a kid like you has the guts to-" those were the last words the robber got to say before he left this world. Holding the robber's head with his energy coated hand, K sighed "I guess my control over my energy isn't enough to tamper with the brain. Welp he died for a good cause, he should be happy"
Then with an a cold look across his face K muttered "If you hadn't died I would have tested how much pain can I make u feel if I target my energy at ur sensory neurones"
The morning had come. K's dad never got late to his work not to mention actually skipping a day. He's actually the opposite he's the type to go even on weekends." People are gonna notice my family's absence if I don't do anything."
K started by going and fully healing his family's wounds but they still hadn't woken up. His I energy maximum capacity increased a lot during the time he was sleeping as well as his recovery speed. The speed at which I energy quantity increases relates to how much use it as well as ur vessel.
Before he slept he had every drop this allowed the most effective increase. As for the vessel, the more emotional a person is the harder it is for his body to store and use a large amount of I energy. K is the most emotionless person shadow has seen since he started to observe earth.

K even calls himself the blank in games and it seems it had attracted a certain sort of karma due to how a lot of people acknowledge him as the blank and thus he seems to gradually be fading. He's harder to spot if you're not actively looking for him and he's getting less and less emotional.
The karma along with his mentality caused him to get an "empty vessel". That's the best type of vessel for training I energy and it was rare to the point were it literally didn't exist.
The empty vessel wasn't a legend or a myth but rather merely a hypothesis someone suggested, and it had just been proven true. Thanks to awakening his I energy powers recently, having an empty vessel and using up all his energy before sleeping Shadow managed to slip some information for him about the vessel types.
K doesn't know how he got this info but he should be sure it's correct. Shadow wishes he could interfere more directly but anymore than that and he'll be noticed, not to mention he was being pressed on his side as well. In a few days he'd probably reach a point were he won't even be able to continue Monitoring K. Other than vessel knowledge, shadow gave K some tips that will perfect the idea that occurred to him as well as confirming that it's possible and finally shadow gave him some history knowledge that will be useful to him.
After fully healing his family they still didn't wake up which was making K annoyed. "So shocking doesn't work neither does filling their body with energy.... Should I just wait" mused K.
K got rid of the robber's corpse by taking it into his car's back, driving out of the city, and then burying him in the desert. He went home afterward straight to his bed. It's one of his habits, during the past month, K spent an average of 20 hrs on his bed daily. He checked the messages his friends have sent and then asked them on their private group if anyone of them can hold his breath for 2 minutes.
After joking with his friends for a long time,and going through tons of meaningless conversations (it's the specialty of their group) and wasting about 1000 messages of getting sidetracked, they finally reached the point where they all admited to not being able to.
However 2 of his 3 friends were able to hold their breaths for a minute so he sent them the first 5 minutes of the steps. These can be accomplished with a one minute breath and it won't cause a backlash if interrupted.
"Listen guys, for once I'm being serious. This is not my daily prank and u won't lose anything from trying the breathing anyway so just try it u should feel like ur chest is burning after the 5 minutes but the feeling will quickly recede once u stop."
K's friends tried it out and started to believe that there's something interesting finally happening after telling that to the last guy he also got convinced. After that K explained how they need to hold their breath for 2 minutes to make the practices and how useful I energy is, and how important is it not to let anyone know.
