Sunlight streamed through the window, leaving a bright patch on the living room floor.
Odin sat on the floor with his back against the wall, Nen flowing over his arms.
Hum-
Nen: Armament Haki coated his arms, its color darker than a month ago, almost pure black.
He tapped the back of his right hand with his left, producing a faint, muffled sound.
With a thought, he spread Nen: Armament Haki over his entire body, then narrowed it down to a single finger the next second.
This was how Odin had been training his Nen: Armament Haki lately, while also practicing the advanced Nen application technique-Ryu.
Ryu was a technique that made Nen flow rapidly across the surface of the body.
Besides that, Nen: Observation Haki was also a mandatory part of his training, and he had taken the opportunity to familiarize himself with another advanced application technique-En.
Compared with his En, which only reached three meters, Odin had more confidence in his Nen: Observation Haki, which already covered a kilometer.
He glanced at the clock on the wall. Nine in the morning.
Ponzu was not in the living room.
Her bedroom door was closed. Buzzing came from inside, along with occasional speech.
Odin stood up and walked to the window.
Outside was the street, sunlight shining on the pavement, with few pedestrians around.
Several children were playing ball on the corner. When their ball rolled into the middle of the road, an adult helped retrieve it.
He turned toward the kitchen and took milk and bread from the fridge.
While he was heating the milk, Ponzu's bedroom door opened.
Ponzu came out, her hair a little messy and faint dark circles beneath her eyes.
"Morning," she said, her voice a little hoarse.
"Morning," Odin said. "Trained all night again?"
