Chapter 107
10 Quads. The Enemies Are Landing.
This island, slightly off-center from the current magnetic field, was a fairly sizable one, accompanied by several smaller islets.
A month had passed without any encounters with enemies on this island, which had a high mountain in the center and dense jungle at its base.
Clang!
"You idiot. You can channel aura into a sword, but not into a shield? How does that make any sense?"
Dump, who had rolled across the rough gravel floor from Namsagwang’s blow, gasped for breath and stood up.
"Haah... Haah... That’s completely different from the aura you guys use. It’s more like a force of will. You can’t control it like your own body."
"Nonsense. Whether you channel the energy inside your body or externalize it through training and willpower, it’s all the same in the end."
Over the past month, Dump had been the only team member undergoing physical training.
This training, which started out as Namsagwang’s curiosity about the aura that knights wielded, had turned into a daily ordeal for Dump, who was constantly tormented by Namsagwang.
During this time, Dump had managed to infuse a faint aura into the tip of his sword, but Namsagwang seemed thoroughly unimpressed by his progress.
"That body of yours glows gold and produces explosive power — it’s the same principle. So why can you do that but not this? Just how stupid are you?"
