As his body was flung away from where he initially stood, Aoni only had a split second to consider what had just happened to him, and then…


    FWOOOSHHH THUD


    His back smashed into the newly crafted wooden walls, and he was pinned by a powerful Energia wind that refused to let him move even an inch.


    | The Ambient Energia is Condensing and Refining around the User |


    Gritting his teeth and trying his best not to scream in pain, Aoni''s eyes flicked to the notification and nearly yelled, "NO SHIT" as a flood of heat surged through his body as if he were being injected with some type of poison, and the instant Aoni realized this, his panic truly began.


    | A surge of Refined Energia is attempting to merge with the User |


    ''Wh…ahhhhhh,'' afraid he would wake up his summons if he began yelling, Aoni fought against the wind to no avail, as the colorless Energia Wind''s color started to manifest in a stunning disy of bright ruby.


    Meanwhile, he noticed more notifications appearing like pop-ups on a virus-filledputer one after another, each one detailing the mysterious process he was in the midst of living through.


    | ★ Energia Particles have been Refined and are being administered to the User through Flume''s Summoning process. |


    | It has been detected that this phenomenon is not harmful to the User, and no actions will be taken. |


    From there, the light, in the form of motes or particles, shifted shades, slowly working its way through the full spectrum representing a Flume''s Grade.


    | ★★ Energia Particles have been Refined and are being administered to the User through the Flume''s Summoning process. |


    | ★★★ Energia Particles have been Refined and are being administered to the User through the Flume''s Summoning process. |


    | ★★★★ Energia Particles have been Refined and are being administered to the User through the Flume''s Summoning process. |


    | ★★★★★ Energia Particles have been Refined and are being administered to the User through the Flume''s Summoning process. |


    Ruby to Orange, to Gold, then Emerald, the motes of light evolved and merged into his body one wave after another. With each shade, more and more Energia injected itself into Aoni''s body, hitting him with the force of a sledgehammer time and time again until few motes of light remained, and only then did they transform into a beautiful shade of Sapphire.


    Had he had the presence of mind and wasn''t the one being assaulted by the cloud of light, Aoni would have probably been amazed at the sight of a giant, colorful firework cloud transforming through the color spectrum.


    Instead…


    ''Ahh…shit….damn it,'' feeling a trickle of blood running down his nose, Aoni had no way of knowing what was happening to him apart from the notifications, and even then, hundreds of thoughts raced through his mind.


    ''Am I going to die?''


    ''Will I be so oversaturated with Pure Energia that I Explode?''


    ''The notification said I wasn''t being harmed, but why does it hurt so much?''


    After that, his thoughts turned a bit strange.


    ''Am I bing a summon?''


    ''Wait, what if im being refined into a Node?''


    ''Is something being changed within my DNA, or being?''


    ''I''ve never heard of anything like this happening; WHAT IS HAPPENING!''


    Unable to do anything but watch on in pain, the Lad observed them swirling around in a disy akin to fireflies dancing, and then…these Sapphire motes mmed into Aoni''s chest.


    | ★★★★★★ Energia Particles have been Refined and are being administered to the User through the Flume''s Summoning process. |


    All of a sudden, all the heat he was experiencing vanished, and Aoni felt as if he were doused in an ice bath, causing a chill to run through his veins and making his vision tunnel for a split second.


    | A massive influx of Pure, Refined Energia has been applied to the User''s Body, triggering an Energia Baptism as a side effect |


    | The Energia Baptism has increased the User''s proficiency with moving, feeling, and sensing Energia |


    | Passive: Energia Maniption has been unlocked at G- |


    | Due to the Energia Baptism, the User''s Energia Stat has rapidly grown and broken through the limits of their Rank. |


    | A Passive has been Summoned and represents the 10th Summon from the Flume''s Multi-Summon Ritual |


    | This new Passive is observable in the User''s Traveler''s Disy |


    | 90 pp Earned |


    With thatst notification, the force pressing Aoni to the wall ceased, and he copsed onto the ground, panting as sweat drenched him from head to toe.


    Although he wasn''t exactly in pain, there was no doubt that the Lad''s body was sore, and he was fatigued beyond belief. As he struggled to sit up and leaned his back against the wall, Aoni''s mind raced at the information the notifications had fed him.

    ''I…Energia baptism, energia maniption, limits broken, a new passive as a summon…this… it''s too much, today has just been too fucking much.'' Not knowing whether he wanted to burst out inughter or cry himself to sleep, Aoni closed his eyes and thumped his head against the wooden wall a few times before finally opening his TD.

    Working up the courage, Aoni slowly opened his eyes and scanned through his Traveler''s Disy; however, what he saw there finally short-circuited the Lad''s brain, and with a slight dribble of drool running down the corner of his mouth, Aoni slumped over, unconscious.@@novelbin@@


    At the same time as his head thumped against the hardwood floor in the bedroom not far away, a worried cia continuously looked from the doorway, down at the sleeping bird using her as a pillow, and then back up.


    She could feel everything going through her Lord''s mind and wanted nothing more than to run and check on his condition, especially since she had been hearing the scary noisesing from the other side of the wall. Yet, the words Aoni had whispered in her ear earlier continued ringing in her head.
