Intent was the manifestation of emotions.
And most of the high ranked hunters couldn't form an intent since they were lacking conviction. But if they do, to have an Intent enchanted in a weapon could cut anything without much of an effort.
But to have intent alone was already beyond imagination by other hunters. But if one could use both energy and mana together with the Intent, the result was extraordinarily powerful.
Roy doesn't know anyone who could do it. He had been teaching Ned to materialize intent and make it physically available through energy. But he didn't expect that Ned could combine both energy and mana into his emotions.
The result.
To Roy's fiery eyes, it was marvelous. Emerald green on a light. It has been only days but Ned already formed an Intent.
Roy smiled.
His plan worked.
Now, how would he explain it to Ned that he was only making things up?
Yet, Roy smiled.
His plan worked.
