Danmachi: Voyager of Worlds Ability

[30] : Mika's Rapid Mastery, Nen Principles & Training

"Haha! Have you awakened?"

Netero laughed as he easily dodged Mika's sword, ceasing his aura's pressure. He gazed at Mika, whose body was constantly emitting a milky white gas.

Although Mika had now reached the same level as him, Netero's invincible spirit, accumulated over decades, was no joke. At this moment, Mika was still no match for him. But Mika's potential fascinated Netero.

As an old man who had been invincible for decades, what Netero now craved was an opponent worthy of battle. And now, Mika had clearly entered the list of those he considered worthy opponents.

"Such limitless potential!"

...

"Is this Nen?"

Feeling his new state, Mika looked at his palm and muttered to himself excitedly. He wasn't concerned at all about Netero dodging his attack. After all, it was Netero - that strike, although powerful, wasn't fast.

Moreover, more than whether the sword strike had landed, Mika was more concerned about his own condition. Now, he was enveloped in a milky white gas.

"It's as if I'm immersed in warm mucus, wearing a weightless garment."

Feeling the finally awakened Nen, Mika was in high spirits. This meant that the most important task since his arrival in this world was completed. Next, he needed to quickly master the knowledge related to Nen abilities and then teach it to the other members of the Yahweh Familia.

"But now's not the time to think about those things!"

Sensing the life energy constantly flowing out of his body, Mika knew he needed to quickly master it, or he would soon collapse from exhaustion. To control this energy, Mika had to master 'Ten', one of the Four Major Principles of Nen!

As the ability system of the Hunter world, Nen's foundation is known as the Four Major Principles. They are called 'Ten', 'Zetsu', 'Ren', and 'Hatsu'!

Among them, 'Ten' is a technique that keeps aura around the body. Through this method, the body becomes stronger and may even retain youth.

'Zetsu' is a technique that completely stops the outflow of aura. It has the effect of erasing one's presence and eliminating fatigue.

'Ren' is a technique that strengthens and increases the aura that is output.

'Hatsu' is a technique that freely manipulates and uses the aura enhanced by Ren, it is the culmination of Nen abilities.

Now, what Mika needed was the ability of 'Ten'. To use it to constrain the life energy constantly overflowing from his body, letting the aura stay on the surface of his body.

"Relax!"

Relaxing his body, Mika used his will to control this life energy. As he slowly experimented with manipulating this life energy, Mika suddenly recalled the mana manipulation technique that Mellie had taught him.

Under the guidance of Riveria in the Loki Familia, Mellie had rapidly improved her knowledge of magic, including mana manipulation techniques. She had also taught these techniques to Mika, after all, Mika's magic was truly wide-area annihilation magic. Learning some mana manipulation techniques could only benefit him.

And now, the mana manipulation techniques he had learned before brought him great help in mastering Nen abilities. Using mana manipulation techniques as a reference, Mika very quickly mastered the ability of 'Ten'.

Manipulating the aura to stay around his body, Mika's powerful sense of touch clearly perceived that this Nen aura was nourishing his body.

"To have completed 'Ten' without any guidance?"
