As the training neared its conclusion, Yato acknowledged my progress. "Impressive, Lucas. You've adapted quickly. Mana coating is a fundamental skill, and you'll find it indispensable in various situations."
"Now it's time for the next part of the training," Yato said as he slightly bent his knees and raised his hands, assuming a combat stance.
Beckoning me with his finger, he yelled, "Now, come! Attack me while trying to maintain that form."
Attack? I was struggling to maintain the aura even when I was doing nothing! How can he expect me to move around and launch attacks?
Noticing the troubled expression on my face, Yato's smile widened. "Don't worry. I won't kill you."
Summoning my courage, I cautiously approached Yato, trying to maintain the mana coating as I moved. The icy ground beneath my feet added an extra layer of difficulty.
