Chapter 225: The Knight Reflects on Defeat (4)
...Come to think of it, Ihan had never truly faced an Aura User before.
He knew they possessed strength worthy of being called superhuman.
He knew they could achieve the impossible, that no matter how much he struggled, they were opponents he could never defeat.
But he never really understood why they were called Aura Users.
And now—
Uuuuuuuung!
He thought he was beginning to understand.
"Once you become an Aura User, using lifeforce (Aura) is no longer difficult. Other knights have to exert extreme concentration to manipulate their lifeforce manually, but for us, it’s simply natural. Just like how those mage bastards use mana."
"......."
"In other words, there's no point in showing off that trick in front of us. Not that it isn't impressive. For someone who hasn’t even crossed the ‘Boundary’ to be able to use Aura—that’s certainly remarkable. Consider this a compliment. Among the younger generation, you’re definitely in the top ranks, haha."
"...I wouldn’t say that."
"Hm?"
