"Furthermore, unlike a trainee, he can use his authority to solidify his aura and use it to attack, defend and fly. Solidified aura is 100 times better than an Unsolidified version of Aura, which is common to trainees and weapon masters. That's why, although you have removed more than two limiters and become as strong as a level 7 aura monster physically, you are still not his match."

Damien revealed what made Victor more special than trainees to Roy before he came to a sudden stop and asked him. "Do you have any questions?"

Roy stopped behind him. His back was all that he could see in this darkness-ridden place. "Can't I destroy the physical manifestations of his solidified aura with raw strength or aura techniques?"

Upon hearing his words, Damien acted like he had heard the biggest joke of his life, and a pearl of laughter escaped Damien's lips

Roy's eye twitched as he could tell Damien was laughing at him.

"Can you see that over there? Attack it." Damien pointed out a certain something.

Roy looked at what he was pointing at and inspected it.

『You have inspected the average-looking boulder.』

『It's a celestial stone that fell down the Flying Celestial Realm, broke through the protective field of the Far West Major Realm, and landed in between the Ashen Mountain and Ashen Lands, erecting a holy barrier between the two and separating them for eternity. The world's energy is attracted to it at night. It consumes and covert it into Aura. This aura coats it defensively, giving it the same defense as an aura master.』

'It's a surprise that it hasn't been disinterested in ashes after falling down from one realm to another.' Roy gawked at it in surprise.

"I don't know if I can destroy it, but I'll give it my best shot," Roy said to Damien as he summoned Ghost Chaser, grabbed its hilt, and rushed towards the boulder, bringing it down at it.

As he did so, he poured aura into Ghost Chaser, activating its special function.

『You have activated Ghost Chaser's special function. Its weight has increased by ten times』

Previously, it was fifteen times heavier than Reflection, around 1.5 tons heavy, but now it weighed around 15 tons.

It could be said that he wasn't swinging a fucking sword, but two big and fat African elephants!!!

The sword carried with it the force to flatten boulders, but it failed to reach the stone as it slid over an invisible surface before getting embedded into the ground.

Roy: "…" Huh? What the fuck! Fuck author, are you scamming me?! What kind of cheat do aura masters have to divert a 15-ton sword swung by a man with the raw strength of a level 7 aura beast without even sweating?!!!!

At this moment, Roy felt as if he had been lied to his entire life.

"The stone is overflowing with aura. It automatically coated itself in solidified aura to protect itself when it was attacked. It had coated itself in such a dense Solidified Aura that even with your strength, you weren't able to break through it. That's why your sword slid to the side before reaching anywhere close to it. And Victor is coated by such a dense, solidified aura 24/7 due to his authority. If you can't even cut this boulder, forget about hurting him, you won't be able to move a single strand of his hair out of place." Damien revealed this to Roy.

Roy was shocked. He couldn't see what was protecting the celestial stone, but it didn't mean it wasn't protected by a coating made of Solidified Aura. He has already experienced the defensive capabilities of a weapon master firsthand, and he realized he had no way of breaching it.

'Even the most deadly version of my third song might not breach its defense.' Roy's hands trembled as he took Ghost Chaser out of the ground and reverse-summoned it.

The novel battlefield of the ancient god didn't explain what made aura master special. The protagonist followed a different path to power, and the author used flowery words to half-ass the explanations of how Aura master A endured the attack of 1000 trainees and defeated them all as easily as talking a walk in the park. The author completely failed to explain that they were monsters who could create impenetrable and invisible shields around them!

Roy turned to his eldest cousin, looking at him like he was his savior. "How do I break it?"

"You need to master the Force. It's something only aura master with all aura meridians can learn." Damien said to Roy. "I will give you a demonstration of it."

"This is Fist Force." Damien punched out, and the mountain thousands of meters away was flattened.

Seeing how casually Damien destroyed a mountain that was so far away that it would take several minutes for him to reach it, Roy's eyes widened to the size of saucers.

"This is Sword Force." Damien swung his hand, and the thousands of bamboo trees surrounding them were cut into pieces.

Seeing the beauty of the Ashen mountain being diminished to nothing just because his eldest cousin waved his hand casually, Roy felt so shocked that his eyes widened beyond the size of saucers; his eyes were protruding so much that they threatened to pop out of their sockets.

Damien snapped his finger, and the mountains were restored to their original look.

Roy's mouth widened, and his jaw dropped. "H-how did you… do that?!"

"Aura grandmaster can infuse their aura with the special effects of their class weapon. The special trait of my class weapon is called Restore. I can restore anything cut by my sword back to its original appearance."

Roy looked at him with wide-open eyes. "Can you revive the dead?

"No," Damian shook his head. "I can't. They will be restored to their original appearance even if they have turned into ashes if I use the power of my sword and pay an appropriate price, but it would be an empty husk, one without soul. It would be no better than a statue."
