Two years passed inside the Voldi Godo mansion
Neuro was now three years old
His body grew slightly
But his mind was far ahead
He did not learn any combat arts
Because his body was still small
"Mana is enough for now…" he thought
During the two years
He never stopped training
At night
In silence
In secret
His control over mana improved greatly
It was no longer just absorption
It became control
From this control
Two techniques were born
The first technique was instant movement
He stood in one corner of the room
He focused on a point ahead
His body did not move normally
But mana around him shifted
In a short moment
He disappeared
And appeared in another place
In a single step
It was not true teleportation
But extreme mana driven movement
"It is still unstable…"
But it worked
The second technique was mana speed
Instead of increasing power
He focused on speed
He accelerated mana inside his body
The flow became faster
The response became immediate
His movements became lighter
Not stronger
But faster
Very fast for his age
"Speed is enough for now…"
He sat calmly
"I will learn combat later…"
"When my body is ready…"
He had reached stage 4 intermediate
Without anyone noticing
He lowered his hand
Mana returned to normal
But he had changed
Inside the training yard of the Voldi Godo mansion
Children were practicing mana
Kyle stood in front
He tried with full focus
Mana gathered in his hand with difficulty
But it was unstable
"Focus more" said the instructor
Kyle clenched his teeth
"I can do it…"
But his progress was slow
On the other side
Neuro stood quietly
He was not in the front
He did not try to stand out
He was only watching
His golden eyes moved slowly
He observed the flow of mana around everyone
Everything was clear to him
Their methods
Their delays
Their mistakes
"Inefficient…" he thought
He slightly raised his hand
Mana moved toward him calmly
Without effort
Without resistance
A natural flow
Then he stopped it immediately
Before anyone noticed
The instructor looked at him briefly
He felt something strange
But saw nothing
Kyle looked at Neuro
He felt uneasy
"Why…"
"Why is he always calm…"
He clenched his fist
"I will surpass him…"
But he was not confident
Neuro looked at him briefly
Then looked away
"He is still far…"
It was not arrogance
It was simply truth
He sat calmly
He had no need to show anything
His real level was higher
But hidden
"Stage 4 intermediate…"
"Enough for now…"
He lowered his hand
Mana returned to normal
The yard continued as usual
But the difference existed
Clear
Even if no one understood it
