Chapter 10: Until I Turn Ten (2)
Aside from aura and mana, there are soh they are few and far between Ast these ‘special powers’, spiritual power is the rarest of thes who control spiritual power can be separated into two categories
Those ere born from Solderet, just like Murakan, and people who made a contract with the God, just like Jin
During his prime, Murakan could use spiritual power to fend off five 9-starto escape Jin couldn’t even picture the dragon’s full power
In other words, now that Solderet was refusing to show himself, Murakan was the perfect teacher for Jin
“People like you and y It’s the first and last technique we need to know”
“First and last?”
“It’s a basic technique yet also a lethal ician uses e, they could release mana
In other words, if soe Since Jin was a 5-starmana was a piece of cake for him
However, while Murakan knew that Jin had ‘mana’ within hie and skills of a 5-star on about his rebirth, and he wasn’t planning on telling anyone froicians don’t use mana release as a lethal move… do they?”
“Just because they both use the word ‘release’ and are similar in style doesn’tspiritual energy”
“Hm”
“In any case, before you learn how to release spiritual energy, you must learn how to release mana first”
“How coed
“You need to begin with learning the easier techniques Would you try to learn how to swing a steel shen you can’t even lift a wooden one?”
“Aha”
Jin nodded as he grasped the , despite his reluctance He had already mastered how to releaseimpatient…
‘Oh well, I should just think of this as a revision I haven’t tried to release ood opportunity’
Once Murakan sat straight before Jin, he suddenly burst out in laughter
“Pffft hahaha… How aic to a Runcandel child If your father ever finds out about this, you and I are both as good as dead”
Learning nified treason
Most ic, but not ic as much as the Runcandel Clan Ever since the death of the first patriarch, the Runcandels considered e a taboo within the clan
The clan ic, one wouldn’t be able to reach the pinnacle of swordsic swordshout history, but none of them achieved incredible feats They slowly disappeared and all traces of theic clans
While hly looked down upon the usage of ‘aura’ It was believed that aura would dirty and muddy the purity of mana
However, these beliefs were flawed
The true reason why the Runcandels had banned ethe era when Teic swordsmen’
Back then, the Runcandel Clan wasn’t as famous as it was today, and history wasn’t as distorted and fabricated
The only ones ere aware of this truth were Jin—the regressor and Solderet’s contractor—and Murakan, along with soures of the Runcandel and Zipfel Clans
“My father will kill us when he realizes I learned ic fro down here without authorization”
“Indeed If what you’ve told me about your father is true, then I have no doubt he’d kill you Since we are acco The people around the world believe that despite being rare, ‘ht?”
“They certainly do, oddly enough”
Jin pretended to be ignorant, to which Murakan chuckled
“That’s all bullshi+t! It’s a lie made up by those Zipfel morons who are far more evil than the Runcandels While you need a precondition to achieve it, ic swordsmen are the ultimate powerhouses Your clan was once a venerable and respected clan ofthis story”
“…Are you not surprised?”
Murakan asked in a disappointed voice Albeit belatedly, Jin let out a gasp and ed at the dragon, who just shook his head at the child’s terrible acting
“Haha, nothing could ever top the surprise I felt the day Iabout a precondition?”
“Geez, you really aren’t cute at all, kid So, you need to have a great affinity with mana, sensitivity to aura, and an excellent physical body Oh, and a contract with a God”
“So I already cleared the conditions”
“Now that you understand, there’s no need to be afraid of learning , kid Youenough”
“There’s no need to make me promise that I already know of the potential consequences I’ve only just turned eight, and I don’t plan on biting the dust anytiood Then from now on, your objective in life is to stand at the suer than anyone else—in order to letnow First, let’s try to stimulate and awaken your mana H
Jin created a mana sphere the size of a walnut on top of his palm, and Murakan could only stare in disbelief
“This crazy twat… What in the world? How could you do that in a second? You didn’t even let !”
Jin also couldn’t hide his surprise
He was planning on holding back and showing the dragon only the bare minimum in order to satisfy him, but had created the mana sphere subconsciously It was more difficult to minutiously control the body of an 8-year-old compared to that of a 28-year-old
Moreover, he hadn’t usedtime, which was another cause of this mistake
Before Jin could cohtly and stood up
“I see, Solderet! I finally understand why you chose him as your contractor after a thousand years! Kuhaha, he’s really so He’s truly unbelievable! Kid, you make my heart beat so fast in excitement!”
The mistake seemed to have benefited Jin
In order to continue his childish act, Jin scratched the back of his head and wore an aard s that impressive?”
