Underground base at the dark forest demon worshipper hideout
" What did you say? "
The 9th apostle asked a grunt with a fit of dissatisfaction
The grunt who was kneeling simply repeated his words
" 2 intruders have been rampaging in area 12 lord 9th, based on their movements they are closing in on the entrance using some method, what is your command sir "
" Tch "
{ 2 intruders? And one capable of reaching this far in? It can't be the king Gildaeus or his dukes considering the state of their capital, who are they? }
With a frown he asked the grunt
" Tell me their descriptions "
The grunt then answered monotonously
" They are .... "

Moving through the forest at high speed ,Chhan and Julia who were covered with dirt and blood of other creatures besides those undeads moved north east towards the mid section of the forest, after glowing a total of 5 times by now ,Chhan had little difficulty managing himself by now when they encountered more powerful monsters that approached them
Julia also got an explanation on why he glowed and how his strength increased and injuries regenerated, Chhan told her that this was the skill he couldn't tell lord Ravenheart about ,his unique skill ⟨Level light⟩(he made it up),she didn't believe it that much but right now she had no choice but to believe him
And right now they stopped again for the 7th time , currently it was 11:23am and they have been running nonstop without resting and they only stopped for this purpose
Chhan :{ 7th time now , let's try to study that technique of her's again }
Julian then drew her sword out and infused it with her white aura and looked at the ground and thrusted the blade downward and sent a burst of aura throughout the ground in the are
Chhana :" { A radar technique using aura, by dispersing aura out under the ground at particle level she can detect any big objects underground,it seems pretty draining as she keeps drinking blue potions after every two attempts} Anything new ?"
Julia :(looked at her front) " Underground,about one kilometre deep at about 2 kilometres infront of us "
Chhan :"(frowned){That deep?} Any entrance? "
Julia :" 2 ,the nearest is at our southwest,follow me "
With that we made our way south west passing through the forest ,and strangely no monster approach and there wasn't even a single sign of them ,no even the sound of birds
" Julia "
" I know "
They were trying but, even if they perfectly hide their aura,mana the demon worshippers failed to hide the sound of their steps and breathing, most of the guys who have me and Julia surrounded from the bushes and trees weren't exactly proficient in stealth it seemed.
" I want to save aura right now Chhan, do you mind if I sit this one out, they are all 8th classes with one 7th and they all only number - "
" 30 anyway ? I know( had an anxious look , nervous) atleast give me a heads up if needed "
" (Smiled with satisfaction) sure ".
With that Julia stopped and I stopped infront of her, looking left and right and focused aura on my neck and asked
" You guys can put now "
.....
Julia : (￣︶￣)
Chhan : (´ー｀)
Sighs
Chhan : " Okay then "
With that Chhan drew out his mithril sword and conjured a 20 meter long aura blade that looked like a long light saber now ,it was focused and concentrated enough to cut through reinforced steel
And seeing such a huge spectacle the ones hidden jumped out of their hiding spot 20 jumped at Chhan ,4 of them who seemed to be mages shit fire, water ,fire and ice spells at him and the remaining other ran back
And those twenty that approached, they faced the incoming blade of aura with their own weapon , mostly, daggers, swords and dual axes reinforced with demonic aura only to have them cleaved apart like tofu and then them
Woooouuu!!
Splat!!
The light saber kept moving and cutted the incoming spells and the user , Chhan leaped back to Julia's side to dodge the ice spell
Julia :" Need help? "
Chhan : " No thanks "
After replying his leg muscles mainly his quadriceps, hamstrings and calfs tensed to the max and as they received further boost from his aura, a dangerous amount of energy gathered at his legs which even caused Julia to flinch when he
BURST
(BOOOOM!!!)
forward at the enemy mages appearing right infront of them in micro-seconds breaking the sound barrier
" h.. he's he.."
" Barriers! "
WOouu!!
Splatter!!
After landing on the ground without difficulty,the swordsman who seemed rather cold ,looked at the left where he could here and smell the sounds and scents of the ones that ran away, he raised his sword which was now back to its original length but still cloaked in aura and suddenly, aura jetted out like a high pressure water jet piercing the sky
"(Gathered aura on voice) { Disperse aura out in that direction,just like Julia , NOW!} "
In an instant 10% of his total aura gushed at their direction he faced and shotted forward and reached the remaining 6 who ran away with the leader ,the 7th class ,the aura acted as a radar wave and immediately allowe the user to scan where they were and their aura levels in an instant at that direction
" { The one in the left just next to the middle is the 7th class dagger user } "
With that Chhan swung his sword down and unleashed and thin, extremely thin yet concentrated aura slash wave attack and cut the 7th class demonic human in half from 1.62 km away, and since his attack travelled at mach 15 ,a mere 7th class entity had no hope of dodging it so yeah ,he just died
Horrified at the sight of their leader's innards which was now clearly visible the remaining demonic humans scream and ran even faster back to their base
Chhan slowly exhaled hot air from his mouth, the attack was something he couldn't do many times it seemed but forvhis first time ,he was satisfied,and sheathing his sword back he turned to Julia
" We should go now, let's follow those guys that ran back to thei- "
Julia :('o⌓o')
Chhan :" Hello? We should go now "
Julia :" Oh!! ( Snapped back to reality ) Y..yeah { Did he just copy my aura radar ? }"
