Ren was standing nonchalantly as he saw his brother pulling his sword to his chest.
Seeing the transition, he didn't think much it. He didn't really take his brother seriously as he believed his brother to still be weak.
Looking into Asher's grey eyes, Ren soon felt slight pressure from it.
His body soon felt a bit restless, but it wasn't to a great extend, it's more like slight anxiety one have form time to time.
But as someone who trains with daggers, he had also honed his sense to match the profession.
So feeling the slight anxiety that came over him, made him weary of his brother.
Not even a second pass after his instinct told him to be weary, He felt a pang on his body.
" whoommmm "
A pin point pressure felt on Ren's body, making him momentarily stunned for a second.
The effect was forceful and instantaneous.
Adding to the fact that Ren was carefree made it more effective.
" Tsuuss "
That slight second gave Asher's his chance to take initiative.
Pulling mana into his legs, he propelled himself farward.
From the middle of his chest, the sword, as if alive pushed itself farward with Asher's arm
" Whosss " the wind was thrust through as the sword moved at insane speed aiming for Ren.
Light speed thrust launch out from Ren's hand, showing the formidable agility he possessed.
Although his agility stats were [ F ], his thrust were not.
Shockwaves were left behind as the sword flew right into Ren's chest.
Energy scattered near the top of the sword showing trace of aura in it.
Ren as if getting a reality check saw the forbading cause of his past suspicious.
The agility of the sword and the trace of aura.
Those were things only heard about when one reaches [ D ] rank.
Although the speed of the thrust could be neglected, the aura is not.
It's only accessible to one who have put lots of time to the sword.
Seeing as the sword was coming at him, Ren let out a light smile.

===A while ago===
---Training Room---
" Swoosh Swoosh "
" Tsus Tsus "
The beautiful dance of thrust slashes and stabs can be seen in the performing in the room.
The boy with white hair was smiling happily as he enjoy his time with the sword.
The sword soon shined in his eyes emanating a moon-ish color on its silvery texture.
Halting my thrust, I look the sword in hand. It was the sword my parents gifted me.
Strange patterns were seen on the sword scattering all around it.
Confusing was written all over me as I didn't understand what's going on.
Then as if answering me, my status was open.

==================================================================
Seeing the translucent screen in front of me, I found it strange.
' The Status Window never appears in front of the user without the user wishing for it.'
' So how come did it appear here? '
Trying to find an answer I sooned found the slight change in my Blessings.
[{EX} Insight ] ( Half-Sealed ) * Active * : Understanding toward anything will be seeminglessly easy. ???
" Active ? " I muttered questionably
" I never heard that blessings need to be activated to be used. "
" Is this a privilege of an [ EX ] rank? "
[ EX ] in the novel was seen as the the peak of levels but as it progress further, we'll find that it wasn't and was instead simply the beginning.
Still getting an [ Ex ] rank is still great, not many have it as the average are only [ C ].
Oh Bleesings doesn't correlate to Rank. [ C ] rank doesn't mean that one can only acheviev [ C rank ].
No, Blessings can help speed up progress, but it does not decide potential.
Potential is based on something entirely.
Hmm, I don't remember much about the novel. I read it more than a few years ago even after my death as Ryan.
Simply said, I don't have all knowledge about this world.
Turning my attention towards my status screen I soon found the " *Active* " part of my blessings gone.
[{EX} Insight ] ( Half-Sealed ) : Understanding toward anything will be seeminglessly easy. ???
' It's not active ' I thought
' Does this mean that my blessings respond to circumstances? '
' I was training when it activated, and now I'm no longer. '
' Ahh this is really confusing '
' Guess I'll find out more about it in the future as It'll probably appear often '
' I'll learn the rules of its appearance, and understand it's effect '
Looking at the silver-like trace on the sword, I found it very stunning.
Asher spent about good amount of time admiring it, it was simply for the eyes at first, but soon He thought of a possiblity.
He tried to move the scattering trace of silver to the tip of the sword.
Walking to the dummy, He soon aimed the sword to touch the dummy.
" Vringg "
The sound of metal was head with a slight heavy wood.
He wasn't using the artifact dummy as the tester, he used the wooden ones.
Although It isn't as strong as the artifact one, it's still fairly strong as it can withstand most attacks under C rank.
Seeing the gash on the dummy, my mouth was left aghast.
" Thisss.. Thisss "
" It's fucking sword aura "
Feeling excitement all over me I soon tried to test it again to confirm my conclusion.
" Vringg "
again the sound of metal clashing against wood was heard.
A slightly deep cut was left behind on the dummy.
" As I thought, It's the early stage in the creation of aura "
" Althoigh it might not be as strong as a truly developed aura, It's still strong "
" This also means that I'll eventually master it " I concluded my newly gained power.
A smile came in my face as I said that.
