'Well today's the day master teaches me, I haven't yet completed the stone slab trial, is it right that I start training with Master?' Night thought as he waited for Noel.
"Whatcha thinking about kid?" Noel said as he followed Night's gaze, "if you're thinking about the stone slab then don't worry, you can do that later"
"Master" Night bowed and then nodded.
Noel thought about what he saw inside Night and decided to leave it for now and first focused on training Night.
"Alright kid, you're going to attack me with everything you got, don't worry I'll just defend"
Without questioning Noel further, Night rushed forward and struck Noel but this was child's play for Noel as he just parried it away and scoffed, however, as if Night expected this he suddenly left his sword and crouched down and used his leg to knock Noel down but Noel jumped in return, he predicted that but he was quite impressed when Night actually managed to pull it off.
While Noel was still in the air, Night grabbed the sword that hadn't fallen yet and slashed at his master, only for him to step on the sword mid-air and appear behind Night but just then Night tried something that surprised even someone of Noel's caliber.
Just as Noel appeared behind him, Night visualized his aura to attack where Noel would appear, unfortunately, he didn't master weapon aura and only a small thread of aura dashed towards his master.
*𝘞𝘖𝘖𝘚𝘏*
He barely managed to dodge that and now looked at Night in awe, 'just how much of a monster is this guy?' he thought.
"Alright kid, that's enough," he said before Night could attack again.
"Master, why do you use only a katana?" Night questioned
"Oh? this old thing isn't even a katana" Noel took it into his hand and it soon melted into aura and soon formed into a bow and then a dagger.
"Once you've understood, weapon aura fully, you'll be able to do this as well, however, there are some pre-requisites."
Noel then explained how weapons can be made with aura:
Aura only copies weapons that are already owned by the user, it not only copies the weapon but also enhances it, therefore, as long as Night owned the weapons in his inventory he could use his own aura to form them, this would even solve the problem of constantly switching weapons, now he just needed to think of a weapon he had in his inventory.
Night couldn't stop shaking from excitement and he asked, "then, master shouldn't I first focus on understanding aura fully?"
"Normally, yes but not for you, I plan on taking you to a few places and train you there" Noel replied.
"We're going on an adventure?" Nights eyes twinkled.
"Hmm, yeah but for training not for enjoying" Noel replied.
Right now only one thing went through his mind, 'in anime this would be the training arc, this is where I get my major power buff, and then when I come back I save the village from orange haired dudes'
(A/N: hmmhmhmhhm I wonder which anime he's talking about.)
"Alright master" he said while calming himself down.
"But what about senior Blade?"
"Oh Blade'll be heading to the Imperial Kingdom, don't worry he can talk to us anytime."
Night then found out that as a legend, Noel can talk to his disciples from anywhere.
Just then a notification popped up:
[Congratulations player Night, you have passed all the trials required to become Legendary GrandMaster Noel's disciple. All stats +50]
Nights jaw then flung open again when he saw that all his stats increased by 50.
"Well anyway, we leave pretty soon, so get ready" Noel said before he vanished again.
Night was left alone but this time he had something to do, his finger was shaking as he went to check his status.

Player Kira was currently ranked number 1 on the leaderboards.
He noticed that the only reason this was possible was that Night for some reason just stopped leveling up.
"Tch, what is this guy doing, I finally reached level 50 and see that Night is nowhere on the leaderboards? what a joke."
Kira was the son of a multi-billionaire, he was a well-known figure from Korea, with the influence and power his family holds, it wasn't too hard for him to level up that fast, however, he didn't have such a big lead, in fact, the second place on the leader board was just one level below him.
"Just where are you Night, you reached level 30 when all of us were barely level 20 and then suddenly disappeared?"
