Chapter 475 Reforging Aura
Chapter 475 Reforging Aura
A boy could be seen sitting on a boulder with his legs folded one over the other and his eyes closed.
Purple fire could be seen around him. It was wild and formless, changing constantly with the flow of the wind.
It soon became bigger and started growing. It started destroying anything that it came into contact with.
As soon as it touched the shadow, it quickly scattered in that area and started expanding. The grass that came into contact with the shadow of the fire also became damaged.
The next moment, it returned toward him and surrounded his body again before slowly dissipating into his eyes. His eyes opened the next moment, glowing violet but soon it disappeared.
He slowly stood up and swung his hand, holding air. A sword appeared on it and whistled in the air. His eyes released a purple glow as he looked at the black sword in his hand.
'Whoosh'
The purple fire appeared again around the sword. He swung it, pointing it at the tree on the back. A crescent moon-shaped sword slash was released from his sword and hit it.
The tree was cut from its trunk. Purple fire entered it and started destroying the tree from inside, acting like venom.
The boy released a sigh of relief. "Finally."
He had been trying to make changes to his Aura. He had taken multiple classes from his aura teacher, and with his help, he was able to refine his Aura.
This new Aura was wild and hard to control. He could do it by letting it have the properties of a shadow element.
It was only possible because his mastery of the shadow element had reached a stage where he could create a fake aura by manipulating shadow energy to act like an aura.
However, the problem with it was similar to Sword Aura: it was limiting and didn't give much of an advantage.
Then, it came to his mind: could he combine them? For that, he first needed to break his Sword Aura. This all became possible due to the mysterious teacher.
His tips and suggestions helped him a lot. He was curious to know about his identity.
Recently, he heard a rumor about his Aura teacher that he has a variant Aura and can manipulate his Aura to mimic any Aura.
If that were true, it would make sense why he has such deep knowledge about Aura.
"Now that I have finally reforged my Aura, it's time for me to master it fully. After that, it will be time to learn other things I lack, like training my contract beasts properly and taking beast riding classes."
Now that he had seen how much he could improve by taking proper classes and learning from the best, he was ready to embark on the journey of self-improvement.
"There are many things left; I need to participate in team competitions for Leo House, challenge other students for better room numbers, and increase my overall ranking in the college."
He took a deep breath as he thought about them. There was a lot to do. He was also missing Kajal, but he had no free time.
They were both busy and trying to improve, so he decided it was not time to involve himself in other things.
"I should focus on mastering my new Aura; as for other things, they will need time. The upcoming battles would be important to test my strength against experienced opponents."
***
With his new motivation, he started his training again, training all day.
All he did for two to three weeks was attend classes and train. He had forgotten about other things; he hadn't even left his room much.
He was also learning how to use it differently, like releasing it from his weapon as a sword slash.
This was something he had learned in Aura class. The professor gave him some tips. He showed them how to concentrate Aura to achieve this feat, but he warned them not to use it excessively as they would waste a lot of Aura.
While new students were busy exploring the college, farming contribution points, and exploring Dungeons, all he did was train, especially working on his Aura.
He knew that Aura was something that every fighter took advantage of. If he wanted to make full use of it, then he should master it.
Recently, he also learned that associating Aura with a particular organ/ Body Part strengthens its power and control while simultaneously increasing its deployment speed.
His training had been fruitful, and he could now crystallize his martial Aura. Any weapon could use this new Aura, so he named it Martial Aura.
The best part about it was that this Aura also had the same ability as his sword aura, which allowed it to expand by consuming mana.
This ability would not have been that powerful for other fighters, as fighter classes don't have a large amount of mana reserve.
But Rishi was different; he had a mana heart and a passive ability that increased mana recovery, and with both of them combined, he had a large amount of mana.
While considering that most of his abilities didn't require much mana, this simple ability became lethal.
Previously, he rarely used it, but now he could easily take advantage of his high mana reserve and mana regeneration.
"If I use Aura with my chains, I can make them more lethal." He said.
With the tips from the PvP class professor, he became an experienced fighter and noticed many flaws in his fighting style.
After noticing his flaws and mistakes, he decided to keep them in mind and not repeat them again.
Unlike before, when he entered the battle ring, he used a different approach. He tried to take initiative no matter how strong or weak the opponent was.
His professor taught him that, as a ranker, it's best to eliminate the opponent as soon as possible; this gives you multiple advantages.
First is obvious that you get less tired. You can save stamina and fight multiple battles in a row.
Second, you can mask your capabilities, only showing what you want.
Third, the more time you spend in the ring, the more the fight becomes open. It also makes it easier for other opponents to study your fighting styles.
Fourth, a quick finish puts pressure on opponents and makes you mysterious.
There were other advantages too, but these were the main ones. He planned to join the Leo House team after training for one more week and testing everything.
He was going to go with the intent to fight and defeat anyone, no matter how strong or experienced he was. In the competition, he had to fight against top third-year students.
They were not similar to the ones he quickly built; all of them were epic stages, and that too at a higher level than him.
From the epic stage, increasing the level was not as simple as getting more experience; there were several other factors. The astral soul was the key; he was still trying to learn more about it.
