Ultra Instinct.
An ultimate technique that separates the consciousness from the body, allowing it to move independently of thoughts and emotions.
A technique that would allow a martial artist to exhibit their capabilities to the fullest. Arken had achieved such a state due to His Body, which had gone into the dangerous state of having no mana at all, And his final act of conglomerating all his mana at his head had been the key to unlocking it.
And It also awakened the power of A Living being itself. Aura.
His Body, which was now covered in green light along with his eyes glowing a deep green light was filled with strength, a sharp contrast to his previous state where it was hard to even move.
‘Arken’ calmly walked towards the demons who were still having trouble with the pressure he was releasing.
They were even more shocked by the fact that they were seeing A Human clad in Aura.
It was just too shocking for these noble demons who had known that Only Orcs And Beastkin could use the power of Aura their entire lives.
The common question in their minds was.
‘How?’
How? What was the scene occurring right in front of their eyes?
Unfortunately for them, They would not
get their answer for ‘Arken’ had finally reached their positions.
He went towards the closest demon, who could do nothing but cower in fear before him.
‘Arken’ moved his hand at a speed at which their trained eyes could not follow…and beheaded the Marquiss ranked demon in front of him.
*Slice!*
It was a clean cut. His hand was covered in Aura that now appeared to look like a blade.
He looked to be undefeatable. He looked to be like a God clad in the armor of green.
Someone, they should bow down to.
And they were already kneeling under the enormous pressure he was releasing.
The Aura Surrounding Arken flared up and engulfed all of them.
Their bodies were burning up, Engulfed by the raging aura.
“Ahh!”
“Stop it!”
“Please!”
They cried out, yet it was worthless, For the Aura burning their bodies would not be extinguished…until their death.
*Shaaa!*Shaaa!*
The Aura flared up, Increasing the intensity of the burning.
And soon, After about 3 minutes or so, All of those demons had been reduced to Ash.
On that day…Arken had made the first step to being called ‘Demon Slayer.’
He had singlehandedly killed 10 Earls, 4 Marquises, and 1 duke-ranked demon.
And he would continue to inflict even more casualties on the demons. .𝒎
To the point, they would begin to fear his very name.
Arken Miller, The demon slayer.

‘…so he was the cause of that?’
Alan thought.
Based on the story he had told, Alan remembered a certain chapter of the Novel.
Where Elijah and the others had been venturing into the Demonic Continent and came across a large ass crack in the ground that stretched for miles until it reached the sea itself.
‘..scary.’
To think it was done by a human and not an overpowered demon.
It truly was scary.
“I had trained for years during my time in the demonic continent to master The power of Enlightenment, and together with it I also managed to awaken Aura.”
The sword saint continued while pointing towards his belly button area.
The lower dantian to be more exact.
“The power of Aura settled deep within me here, It was an odd power, to say the least.”
“I did not know how to use it efficiently without entering the state of Enlightenment, But then, During my time there I encountered an orc slave who had taught me.”
“He was shocked to see me wield aura first, but when I killed the demon who he was a slave, he taught me how to use it efficiently.”
“He taught me the origin of Aura, Its applications, History and It’s…Power….”
The sword Saint paused, took a deep breath, and continued.
“Aura, it is the power of the flesh, the blood, the muscles, the tendons, joints, everything about a living organism. It is the power of the body itself.
If mana is the power of the world.
Aura is the Power of Oneself.
It cannot be achieved without training your body to the utmost limits, Surpassing these limits, and entering a new realm entirely.
A realm where your body no longer requires mana to enhance itself.
A realm where every cell of your body holds Aura within it.
A realm where…your body has achieved the highest physical form possible.”
The two boys listened to their master with rapt attention.
The atmosphere was tense, Alex and Alan were both intrigued by the words of the Sword Saint.
Unfortunately, this tense atmosphere was soon broken by the Sword saint laughing the next moment.
“Haha, You two should see the look on your faces.”
Both of them were surprised. The sword saint had just ruined the tense and extreme atmosphere he had created with his words.
“Now, Tomorrow is the day you will have your first dungeon excursion, and because of it, I want you to do something while in the dungeon.”
Alan was intrigued, while Alex had a troubled look on his face.
“I want you two to defeat five creatures of the same rank as you…and one creature one rank above.”
Boom!
Defeat a monster a rank above?!
Monster ranks and Human ranks were different!
To defeat one monster at least 3 Awakened of the same rank were required.
Not to mention a rank above!
At least a dozen Awakened of would be required to beat a monster one rank above them!
Although this difference in power was not great in the lower ranks(Such as F, E rank). At the higher ranks, it was like the difference between heaven and Earth! 𝑖.𝑐ℴ𝑚
‘Alan has some experience fighting a human, however, he has none in fighting monsters, as for Alex…He has absolutely no experience…so ill have to change it up.’
The sword saint thought. Just with a few days of training, he had found out that Alan had some experience fighting humans, which should probably be the training provided By Twilight, however, had no experience against monsters.
Alex on the other hand had no experience fighting any of them.
Not Monsters, not humans.
He had just stated the above task to see their reactions.
Now he would tell them what they really had to do.
