The Martial Unity

"At first, I just wanted to feel that sensation again, so I began allowing myself to be hit by lightning. Ah, don't give me that look, I took proper precautions and even had potions nearby," He placated Rui who furrowed his eyebrows when he heard of what Kane had been doing. "I soon discovered that my senses and nerves grew kinda super jumpy at everything. Like, I would overreact to simple stuff like thunder."

He paused for a moment, before continuing. "The jumpiness disappeared after some time, but the more I did this, the longer it lasted. So for the first month, I just subjected my body to lightning and… just did that and nothing but that."

Rui's expression had already morphed considerably, conveying what he thought about all of this.

"Okay, but hear me out Rui," Kane gestured with his hands before him. "By the time the second month came, the pain was minimal. I found that when I did it bare-footed, it didn't hurt at all!"

Rui's eyes widened.

That shouldn't be possible!

The human body was not a good conductor of lightning. That was the main reason why people got hurt; their flesh burned when lightning struck them. Electrical currents passed through mediums by replacing the electrons of the atoms or molecules in that medium, and making those electrons part of the current instead. Thus the electrons that entered a medium were not the same electrons that exited.

Mediums with high resistance towards electricity like rubber tended to get heated when a current passed through them.

The human body was one such medium. It was an insulator towards the current and did not conduct it well. That was why when electricity passed through the human body, it tended to heat up the human body significantly, causing it to burn due to this reason.
