Chapter 521 : Night visitor
After finishing speaking, Matthew closed his eyes and allowed his power to flow out of himself, gently enveloping Isla's power.
It was at that moment that he realized that Isla's Immortality, which is also a unique form of energy, was surrounding that power and keeping it locked, preventing much power from escaping her body.
'This is pretty cool. So immortality has a controlling effect on all types of energy. That will make it easier for Isla.' He smiled.
He immediately had his power filter and split the power coming out of Isla's body. He took his time to do so, somehow creating several energy blocks from those in each limb, dividing them from the energy coming out of the main torso of the body.
After that, he spoke.
"Isla, close your eyes and try to exercise control over your right arm. Do it as you remember, and use all the information I will pass you on."
Isla did as she was told, and little by little, her power was trying to return to its calmer, more serene state. She was surprised to realize that although it was difficult, somehow, it was easier to do it now. It was like her understanding of what she wanted to accomplish now was split.
Every limb and section of her body was part of the understanding.
"The Path of Control is not an easy path to walk. You need to understand in depth what its path means. That control base of controlling your power will slowly guide you toward the goal, but you must do it slowly and slowly."
As he spoke, Matthew tried to guide and transmit information to Isla through the energy his body gave off. He had become more adept at this lately, which made it easier for him.
He was trying to exercise that imperfection as best as possible, and Isla understood it very well.
Because of this, Matthew soon guided her to her second arm as he continued to speak.
"Focus on understanding the energy in one of your arms, and then move on to the other. You don't really need to control it; you just need to understand it. Then you will go through each of your limbs to end up in your torso."
"Try to make the movement of your mind harmonious and slow, don't rush to gain on this path. Remember that in the long run, it is not the one who runs the fastest who wins, but the one who has the most endurance and constancy."
"Therefore, be patient..."
After her arms came her legs, and even her head was counted as a limb to end at the torso, the place with the most energy.
Matthew did this because he realized that energy behaves differently from person to person. Alice once mentioned this to him roundaboutly when she mentioned that the first skills tend to describe the heir's personality in the future.
A skill works with energy. Therefore, each skill (energy) behaves differently in each person.
And if he made Isla understand part by part how the energy behaved, slowly and in a guided way, it would naturally give her great future benefits. Slowly understanding that energy was a good way to control the Control, this is also the Core of the Path of Control.
Understand energy perfectly, for it is your greatest ally. With energy, you will be able to hit everything close to you. With energy, you can control everything externally, according to your mental power. It is with energy that you will also be able to control reality.
That is the basis. Understanding energy will help you enter the path of control's deepest and most difficult regions.
Ironically, it also served the opposite path of control: Destruction. Although in this one... It was different.
But thanks to this, Matthew knew that teaching the Path of Control was not too difficult for him.
Soon, he was done with Isla and he was done with Alice and Emma, helping both of them understand control better.
They both had talent, so it was only a matter of time before they could control it well. After a few detailed teachings, Matthew left the room, leaving the three girls to train gently.

He was exhausted and still had several things to think about.
Although he wanted to start training now, he needed to get several things in order in his territories. Recently, several gangs were starting to rise, wreaking havoc among the civilian population.
It was civilians against civilians. A war he didn't want to get into because it could be a totally one-sided slaughter, which would not leave a good name for the territory.
And this was not the time to create bad names for himself. That time will come, but it hasn't come yet.
Now, it was best for him to show that his territory was safe and that his leader was fair and trustworthy.
Therefore, he needed to look at things differently. In a way, he had never thought about it before.
So he went to rest to think calmly.
The room in which he rested in this large building was darkened, like everything else in this world. But this one was much more so. Large, thick, dark curtains were on one side and the other, darkening every corner of the room.
Although the room had candelabras burning, all naturally, they were not particularly prominent and barely lit the room. Matthew turned them off as soon as he entered, though, so the room returned to the deep darkness he liked.
The decorations in the room were good, looked like royalty, and were neatly and decorously arranged. Still, Matthew paid no attention to these.
He immediately went to sleep.
He easily fell into a deep sleep in a short time and allowed his mind to rest for a long while.
Suddenly, he quickly stood up and moved one of his hands behind his body.
'He moves well...' He thought as he saw a shadow enter his bed.
He quickly pulled his hand out from behind him, revealing that he was carrying a few very small, icy, incredibly sharp daggers. He threw them towards the bed, hedge-like, hoping to catch whoever it was.
Suddenly, the daggers dug in firmly, and a scream rang out.
"AHH..."
'A woman?' Matt thought, drastically moving his energy to remove the thick sheets he was tucked in a moment ago.
Then he was shocked.
A beautiful, delicate woman was there, glued to the bed because his little ice daggers had dug into her transparent, seductive pajamas.
When he saw her, he sighed and relaxed. "Ava..."
