"Keep at it!" Roel shouted.


    "Yes!" Noel replied while jumping to the side. He poured the Spiritual Energy into the sword but thought that the sword was actually a short sword, so that when he poured the Spiritual Energy, the Spiritual Energy would only cover half of the sword.


    With a Spiritual Energy like this, he would have an easier time to defend himself in that area.


    The mineral demon jumped to him, so Noel struck the demon with the lower part of the de where the Spiritual Energy was concentrated.


    To his surprise, the dent this time was as deep as when he used Mega sh even though Sword Aura couldn''t contend against his Mega sh in terms of destructive power.


    Seeing such a dent on the demon made him excited. He couldn''t help but imagine the time he could use the Mega sh with that kind of pinpoint Spiritual Energy. The offensive power would skyrocketed in that area, allowing him to destroy his opponent.


    This trip was totally worth it even if he didn''t have the equipment.


    Noel continued fighting this way as he kept striking the demon until the damage was enough to kill this Low Level Demon.


    "Hu…" Noel took a deep breath and sheathed his sword.


    "So, what do you think about your performance?"


    "It''s taking a toll in my mind since I have to keep the Spiritual Energy in that ce continuously. The burden is far above what I was doing. However, I can see that the offensive power is overwhelming. If I get used to it, it shouldn''t be a problem. And the hardest part is to infuse the part that is not directly touching my hand.


    "Right now, I am imagining this sword is a short sword, so the Spiritual Energy is still connected to the handle and my hand. But the sword''s striking point is at the upper part to the tip of the sword. If I want to concentrate the Spiritual Energy, it won''t connect to my hand anymore." Noel sighed, feeling the trouble ahead.


    "That''s where you are wrong. It''s impossible for you to control it if it''s not connected to your body, considering your body is the supplier of the Spiritual Energy." Roel shook his head, trying to correct Noel.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    "Huh? But…"


    "Listen to me first." Roel stopped him and took out his hammer. He then poured the Spiritual Energy into this hammer and concentrated it on the hammer''s head. However, Noel found something surprising the second time he saw this.


    "What is this…" Noel pointed at the thin line that connected the hand to the concentration point.


    "That''s the trick to control the Spiritual Energy. You just have to create a line to connect them, allowing you to control their movement." Roel smirked and raised three fingers. "You can use a rope as stage one of your training to understand how to make such a line. Then move to a smaller one like a thread before going for nothing."


    Noel looked down, thinking. He finally understood the mechanism, but even for him, it would be hard to master it.


    Seeing Noel''s serious face, Roel smiled and patted his shoulder. "Anyway, it''s over. Let''s go back to the surface. We''re already like nine hours here, so it''s better to leave the mine right now."


    "Eh?" Noel widened his eyes. "But the ores…"


    "I''ve picked some that I can use. I''ll just tell my workers to bring the rest upter."


    "So, we didn''t need to mine so much ore this whole time?"


    "Yes."


    "Then, why did you ask me to mine the ore?" Noel asked while furrowing his eyebrows.


    Roel smiled and grabbed Noel''s body starting from his arms, legs, and eventually his body.


    "Swift hands, flexible joints, quick movement on the arm. The legs are basically the same because you make more movements that you need to. I don''t say they''re waste movements since you are using small steps to maneuver around to make yourself unpredictable.


    "Then, there is your body. Your body seems to be able to react to an attack. When there''s a rock almost hitting your body from mining, your body will tilt to the side to avoid it. The same as monster. Your fighting style requires you a lot of movements.


    "So, I need to create a thin… a very thin armor to avoid hindering your movement as well as  hide it underneath your clothes. You surely don''t like to look so buff unnaturally, right?


    "But at the same time, I can''t give you a weak armor since it''ll be useless to protect you from a sharp object. It''s the same as leaving yourself vulnerable.


    "Hence, I''llpress the wood as much as possible. With that kind of density, the armor will be slightly heavier, but it should be hard enough to withstand a sharp object.


    "And I''ll make three adjustments with my Spirit. The first will be the defensive power. By infusing your Spiritual Energy, you can enhance the armor. This way, you don''t need to fear even if your opponent use the Spiritual Energy.


    "Then, I need to apply another enhancement in the weight. I can''t really make you go with that much of weight. You are not a heavy soldier unit after all. Then,st adjustment is in the pain.


    "With an armor that thin, although it can protect you from the immediate danger, it''s still extremely painful. So, I''ll redirect the force to the entire armor so that the pain won''t be too overwhelming for you." Roel exined the reason why he had been asking Noel to do his job.


    It turned out he was assessing Noel''s ability and fighting style. This way, he would understand what kind of armor did Noel need.


    "Ah!" Noel also understood the meaning and immediately apologized. "I''m sorry."


    "It''s fine. I wanted to tell you about it, but then again, you might get too worked up or not use all your power… So, I didn''t tell you. I wanted to see your full strength." Roel exined with a chuckle. "Though, the armor itself is hard to make since I need topress the Ancient Demon Tree. If I rush it, the armor will be too brittle. So, it''ll take around two to three months before the armor ispleted. Can you wait that long?"


    Noel thought for a moment and nodded. "Yes."
