Amar: "I don't but I could just do it after seeing how you did it. Leonard: "Are you saying you were able to learn aura which normally takes people years to even feel instantly only after seeing me use it once."
Amar: "No, It was more like re-learning it. It felt as though I always knew how to use it and after seeing you use it I just instinctively activated it. I was only trying to just punch the demon." Leonard: "Haha! you were trying to punch a demon whose skin is so tough that swords not embedded with aura just break upon striking it. Boy, You are quite brave. I like you."
Amar: "Not sure how I should feel about an old man liking me but thanks." Maria: "Wow! you just hit a demon. You are very strong huh unlike how to look. But since you were able to use aura you must have been a great adventurer or a knight. Just how did someone like you lose his memories."
Leonard: "Well that he doesn't remember so let's just let it be and sleep. It's going to be a long ride tomorrow so let's sleep while we can. Amar can you stay guard I am afraid that I alone can't stand guard."
Amar: "Okay but didn't you say the village was near." Leonard: "It is but that is not our destination it's just yours." Amar: "I see, you go to sleep first I will stand guard." Leonard and Maria proceed to sleep. Leonard wakes up after 6 hours and is shocked to see the sun rising. Amar: "Oh! you're awake good morning." Leonard: "Did you stand guard all night? Why didn't you wake me up?" Amar: "Well I couldn't sleep literally. It seems I don't need to sleep so I just practiced this aura all night. Look now I can do this."
Taking a stone in his hand Amar covers it in the aura and throws it onto a tree and the tree immediately collapses. Leonard goes to the tree to observe it. Leonard: "You can manipulate aura to such a degree! It took me 6 years to be able to do that and even I am considered a genius in doing so." Amar: "I told you I am not learning it I am relearning it. I seem to always have been able to use it but I am just now remembering how to use it."
Leonard: "That does not make it any less amazing! you are not even twenty heck you are not even 18! People can only start to learn aura after becoming 15! That means you learned to feel the aura and manipulate the aura to such a degree in only a year or two! While it takes most people a decade or two!"
Amar not knowing what to say just giggles. Amar: "Hehe." Maria: "Why are you guys shouting so loudly in the morning? what's the matter?" Leonard: "Good morning milady. I will explain."
Both of them go a bit deeper into the cave where Leonard explains what happened. Maria: "Huh! How is that possible even the sword saint was only able to feel the aura and cover a sword with it after 3 years?!" Leonard: "I know how unbelievable that sounds milady. That boy seems to be the personification of mystery. I observed the tree that he collapsed and unlike how it normally should have been after being struck the part where the stone struck was empty."
Confused Maria asks: "Are you saying the tree was hollow and it collapsed after just being hit by a rock and not aura?" Leonard: "Yes and No." Maria: "Huhuhu! Why are you annoying me just get to the point!" Leonard: "Sorry milady, What I mean is the tree fell because of the rock but the rock was not covered in the aura it was covered in something else. Normally the part where the tree was struck should have had its debris all over the place but in this case, the part where the tree was struck was empty as if there was nothing there in the first."
