035 - Midnight Bonding
A ball of light was glowing in the darkness. It was white, with a thin, silver string floating around it. The string was moving rigidly, and slowly.
The light ball then visibly twitched, and Jai felt a pinch on his left side.
"Little lightning?" Jai reflexively asked.
The ball of light twitched again and Jai felt a small pinch.
Jai smiled, "So it is you..."
The ball of light wavered softly, then it floated closer to Jai. Jai reached out to it and it stopped and hovered on his hands.
The ball of light started to twitch. It was as if it's trying to say something. Unfortunately, it had no voice. It had no limbs either to draw him anything. The closest thing he could call limb from the light ball was the small rigid string around it. But even that was only circling the ball of light and nothing else.
It was still twitching, and Jai felt sorry for

Farmer Mac finished separating the wheat kernels from its stalks. He tied them in a sack before hurling it on a wooden cart along with other wheat kernels, corn, and two big iron jars of milk. He wiped the sweat off his face and turned around.Around 30 meters in front of him, there was a young man with black hair. He was punching a bag of dirt that was tied to a tree branch, so the sack was hanging from it. Farmer Mac saw as the young man gave a spinning kick to the sack and made he sack fall. The young man seemed to have put a big pressure on that kick, because the rope broke and the sack was also in grave condition. Torn from who knows how many hits it had taken, dirt fell out from the sack into the grassy ground under the tree.Farmer Mac watched as the young man flinched and looked at the sack in slight panic and regret. Mac had never seen an element controller before, nor meeting one. But looking at the young man moving around, punching, kicki

Jai checked himself in front of the mirror. He was wearing something like a hakama and a capri like pants, both dark blue in color.A squeal came from behind him and Jai felt embarrassed all of a sudden. He turned around to let the others get a better look."You look so good in it, Jai!" The woman in apron said.She was standing between an old man and a cute girl with amber hair. The old man chuckled while the girl smiled brightly."I didn't think Hans's clothes would fit you so well," The old man said, looking at Jai.The woman laughed, "I'm younger than you by twenty years, Barun. My eyes are as sharp as ever.""We didn't doubt you, Auntie. He looked so fresh in it," The amber girl said while smiling."Oh of course! The clothes I made are always fresh." The woman confidently said. "Would you be a dear and pack the change of clothes, Miria?"
The Last Thunder 038 - First Battle
Jai couldn't guess if he was just lucky, or the universe was being kind to him. He had been waiting for this moment since that day he awakened his lightning. But he wasn't interested in beating this guy because he wanted to test out his element control. Instead, he was getting revenge because this was the guy that pushed his benefactor's granddaughter to the ground.Yes. The man in front of him was the thug that had pushed Miria back at the market. Jai was still pissed.The bulky man in front of him tensed up, and with his index finger, he pointed at Jai."You!" The man yelled harshly.Jai raised his eyebrow, “Oh? You remember me?”The man flinched at how calm the young man answered him. That attitude pissed him more above the fear and panic he was already feeling.“How can I forget?! You gave this to me!” The bearded man yelled, pointing to his own face.There was
The Last Thunder 039 - Red-head Stranger
Jai left the stage as per the committee's instructions, leaving assortment of cheers in his wake. Bartos, his opponent, had been rendered unconscious and was already wheeled out from the arena.Jai didn't know where the guards were taking him, but he didn't care. He won that round. But he didn't feel satisfied at all. He was hoping that guy would realize his mistake, but apparently, in the end, the guy did not.'Thankfully I didn't give him a fatal blow. If I meet him again, I'll make sure he apologize properly.' Jai noted that mentally. The little spark inside him twitched after he said that, as if agreeing.Then Jai received a pat on the shoulder."That, was, amazing, Jai," Darrion said."Thanks, I guess..." Jai shrugged his shoulders, and then he said, "I don't feel like winning, though."Darrion was suddenly very curious about what his friend talked about on the
The Last Thunder 040 – The deal with Darrion
Author’s note:Previously, we ever mentioned that Jai is a brunette. But Jai’s hair is actually black, and we will start mentioning him as such. We are sorry for the inconveniencies.-So... Lightning is purple... In this world.Jai sighed and hung his head, ‘I’m an idiot... I almost forgot I’m not there anymore. Things are different and I need to get it together.’Jai had a talk with Darrion after the encounter with the red haired guy. It was until then that he found out about the different color of lightning. However, with him not knowing about that surely made Darrion curious about him. Although the blonde had not shown it yet, Jai was sure he had some questions swimming in his head. It was fine by Jai, he had the time to think of the possible answers to some questions.Near the fountain, there was a seating box readied for the participants. The box was a few feet away from the au
The Last Thunder 041 - Twinkle Toes
There were two men on the arena. One was rather chubby with light tan skin, long black hair pulled into a braid, and a blue vest hugging his breast. The other one was skinnier and more tanned than him, wearing a long black robe, ash brown hair, and cunning expression on his face.The two men were exchanging blows of fire. Literally, they punched each other with fire swirling around their fists and their kicks.They had been at it for almost half an hour now, and the two of them had begun showing their tireness. The skinny guy slipped a momentum in his right fist, and the fatter guy used that to send a kick to his left side. The skinny guy was thrown to the side by a few feet.As the skinny guy struggled to get up, he raised his hand and said, "I surrender!"The fat guy sighed and did not pursue. Two people from the committee came in to check the two of them. This was different from Jai's battle because
The Last Thunder 042 - The Famous Bullies In The Kingdom
The competition for that day was done and the committee gave the participants one day to recuperate. Some participants who passed to the next round-battle were unable to continue for the day, due to some of them being passed out and badly hurt.Jai wondered how worse did it get in the South stage, because in the North stage, the fights were not very critical. He could count Haku and two more people that got quite rattled, but the rest of them were only with minimum injuries."I kind of disagree with the one day rest... It felt too slacking off," Jai muttered as they leave the square with Barun.It was afternoon. The sun was still high in the sky, but it's not right at the top. It was probably around 2 o'clock in the afternoon.Darrion hummed, "I could guess that must be the princess' doing."Jai frowned and thought, 'They have a princess here too? Well of course, it's a kingdom. Why am I
The Last Thunder 043 - Wimpy bullies
"Barun!" Jai shouted as he turned around to check on Barun. But he was surprised to find a tall and rather muscular guy instead.The guy swept some bricks to the side while Barun was standing right behind him. The old man had this shock look on his face, but he looked fine.The flying bricks came to a stop when the new guy showed up. Then the thug shouted, "hey! Who the hell are you?!"The big guy glanced at them briefly, but eventually ignored them and turned around. He patted Barun's shoulder and gave a polite smile, "Sir, let me help you to the other side. This place is dangerous."Barun nodded at him and he gave Jai a nod before the guy led him to a shop across the street.The thugs were speechless because they were ignored. One of them reflexively shouted "Hey!", but was also ignored.Jai waited until Barun was safe on the other side of the street before he turned to face the fr
