Chapter 27 - Amazing Technique
It was the middle of the night when YuJu finally felt refreshed enough and sprang up from his seated posture, he cracked his joints lightly before jumping off the branch
"Let's go, we have had enough rest"
Ellis got up and took the lead again while Anput trudged behind him to handle any enemies attacking from the back
The trio made their way through the forest while killing any beasts that dared bar their path, however, they didn't follow the ones that escaped, they wasted enough time today as it is, plus those beasts weren't worth hunting, Ellis was only at level twenty-seven even after fighting so many beasts since they left the city
The only problem they faced was Ellis's inability to see in the dark well, that showed a sharp drop in her fighting skills but YuJu wanted her to experience this and learn how to adapt to such situations, especially since he didn't have to worry about her getting injured with both him and Anput having the ability to see in the dark, Anput because of her beast nature and him because he used to have a nocturnal class
They soon made it out the forest and started running on empty long roads, other than the asphalt under them they were surrounded by a barren land dotted with shrubs
"From here on we shouldn't meet any more beasts and no humans at all, its the perfect time for you to start mastering your aura control"
YuJu stopped the group and asked Ellis to sit on the ground as he explained her training plans
"You couldn't train it when you fought the beasts since it would distract you a lot and would put you in danger, that would hinder both our progress and your training thus from now on you shall train it whenever we are sure we're not meeting any creature, only when you can use it to a minimum degree without the need of your focus are you allowed to put it to use in a fight"
She nodded her head at his words, but she honestly didn't know what he was talking about, wasn't she already training hr aura by using it on her sword?
"Projecting the aura through a strong medium like a solid weapon is the most basic and barbaric way of using it, you need to start using the aura to its full potential and that is by directly using it as the weapon"
She blushed at his description of her fighting style
"Now start by directing your aura outward, don't force it through an object and let it loose as you would when you exert pressure around you"
She followed his words and close her eyes, imaging her aura flowing out her body
YuJu and Anput felt something heavy envelope them, accompanied by a smile from Ellis, seemingly happy about her success
"What are you smiling about? You merely exerted pressure like you normally do, you haven't let your real aura out"
She frowned at his admonishing, how would she know whether it was pressure or aura?
Taking a deep breath she relaxed her muscles and started to feel her aura within, that step was very easy since it was a very prominent thing, but when she tried to bring it out of her by directing it toward her skin she found only a light feeling came out and not the aura itself
"Hmm, I thought you might be able to skip to this step pretty easily, guess we will have to take the long route, try projecting it using your own body as the medium first"
His words made her feel very angry with herself for being such a disappointment, it felt like she failed to meet his expectations, the way he said it made it out to be such an easy thing yet she hadn't been able to achieve it
'I will easily do this part'
She thought as she channelled her aura into her body like she would to her sword, adamant on doing it on her first try
When her aura touched her skin and tried to seep into it she felt a very hard layer blocking it, there was also that feeling of ants crawling through your veins when it went through her skin
Still, she didn't give up and grit her teeth, the feeling of ants crawling all over her was intense, and the barrier blocking her aura from leaking outside was much stronger than the beginning but she pushed through and rammed into it with her aura again and again
RIP! RIP~
With a ripping sound a purple light finally enveloped her body, encasing it with a light yet very dominant looking film
'Lunatic'
That's what YuJu thought as cold sweat trickled his back, he was never expecting her to actually succeed, this wasn't something an auras master should be able to do any time soon, in fact he expected her to achieve this level only when she reached level one hundred
'If I allowed her to continue with the last method would she have been able to do it?'
Even though projecting the aura outside the body was a speciality of level two hundred aura masters he felt that with her talent she might actually be able to do it
He didn't show his surprise on his face though, the reason he was making he try impossible methods to begin with and sounding disappointed was to crush her arrogance, his plan didn't succeed but it was slightly useful as she still she thought she failed once
He wouldn't allow her to feel too arrogant about her success though, arrogance was the road to failure and it was easy to all into it with a dignity aura, just as she did in the past life
"You did okay, it took you some time to get into this state and you have to work on making it an instant activation if you want to use it for battle, plus you need to work on keeping your dignity intact"
"Dignity intact?"
She asked with a puzzled look, then she noticed his gaze looking at her weirdly with a lot less focus on her face
Following his gaze she looked down slowly and was greeted by two poking mountains with rosy peaks, the white mountains looked soft and bouncy and were now slowly turning red as her blush leaked all the way into her chest
Fwap!
A blanket was thrown onto her face, this surprised her, dispersing her aura back into her body
"Concentrate, remember the feeling that helped you leak your aura outside and start working on it, once you are sure how it is done practice the technique on our way to the village"
She nodded while covering her body with the blanket, YuJu ignored her embarrassment and ran in the front. Anput stayed at the back while Ellis took the position in the middle, running while thinking about way to activate her aura faster and most importantly how to keep her clothes intact
Rip!
Not long after they started running he heard the sound of the blanket being ripped apart but didn't turn around to look and merely threw a blanket to the back which Ellis was thankful for
Rip!...Rip!...Rip!..Riip~
After wasting the fifteenth piece of cloths Ellis looked at YuJu's dwindling bag and decided it was useless to try to wear clothes while practising, thus before he threw another piece that looked like male underwear back she told him she didn't need it
The three continued running in since after that, they really ever met a beast in which case Ellis would've to go to the front and slice it with the sword YuJu would throw her before going back to the middle in a flash, merely giving him a glancing sight of her bubbling buttocks
Several long hours later the missing sun started to rise into the sky announcing the arrival of the apocalypse
The three were still running on the road except that there were now trees dotting the landscape around them and beasts were appearing more and more often, they even met some of the beasts YuJu needed to make the stimulant he needed to keep them awake
As for the naked Ellis, she hadn't gotten anywhere with her new technique, this frustrated her greatly since she thought it was merely a basic technique, and the beasts had to unjustly be her venting targets
With the appearance of more beasts and her need to vent she ended up back on the front, not that she minded it too much at this point, though she did fear for her butt from time to time it wasn't like he had never seen it before
"Up ahead we should encounter a few bug nests, we must move around the main road and climb the hills near the village, from there we will drop down sneakily into a nest of a few bugs we need to hunt, only when we get them will we go to the village"
Bugs, they weren't her favourite but she wasn't scared or anything thus she followed the plan and started to head to the hills
"Are you planning on fighting them naked?"
She almost tripped at his words
"You're not going to be practising the technique when we are fighting long battles, might as well wear something"
He said while throwing her a slightly long shirt
"...What about pants and underwear?"
"You ripped them all"
He answered shrugging, she didn't miss the smirk on his face though
'He made me rip them on purpose!'
It was very obvious yet she couldn't do anything about it, she had to be satisfied with this shirt which barely made it past her butt
'I hope the wind isn't strong today'
She prayed for her buttocks not to be exposed too much forgetting that she had been naked this entire time
