Damien was a beautiful man with flowing blond hair.
His skin was smooth and bright, his jawline was v-shaped, giving him an elegant look, and his lips were redder than blood and more attractive than a woman's. They were pressed together, giving rise to an air of indifference around him.
His face was as if meticulously sculpted by the Sun God, but it was cold like an iceberg and void of expression, yet his emotionlessness face worked to make him all the more enchanting.
His noble white attire was adorned with silver embroidery. His gloves were decorated with lattices of the same color. He wasn't wearing excessive accessories.
He wore a pair of high leather boots, also decorated in silver.
He was quite manly. His shoulders were broad, and he stood 1.83 meters tall. The full attention of the moon was attracted to him as if magic. Moonlight followed him as he walked up to Roy. It struck his golden hair, creating an illusion of Sunfire falling freely behind him like a waterfall.
He was like a vampire who could enchant everyone at a party with just a smile.
"Fuck, how can a man be so… graceful and radiant?"
Roy was overwhelmed to see such perfection in a man but remembered that Damien was a bedwetter and a scaredy-cat who didn't dare go to the bathroom without his father at night when he was a child and no longer felt bothered about being in his presence.
"My name is Damien Arnard Leglaz Orlando Baldwin." Damien introduced himself to Roy. "I am the youngest feudal lord in the history of the empire, although I have no land to rule."
Hearing his words, Roy realized Arlo was a short version of his uncle's full and cool name.
"I am-"
Damien rudely interrupted Roy.
"You don't need to introduce yourself to me. I already know who you are."
"Ok," Roy, feeling embarrassed, gave him a short reply.
"As you already know, I will be teaching you a trick to overcome Victor Angelo."
Damien was interrupted by the curious Roy.
"Is that the name of the youngest prince?"
Yes, Roy still didn't know his name.
Everyone around him had always been calling him by his title, not his name.
Even in rumors, he was mentioned as the youngest prince or the chosen one.
This was his first time meeting with someone who dared to call put the name of the empire's prince and emperor in a single breath.
"Do not interrupt me when I am talking," Damien warned Roy in a stern voice. "And yes, it's."
"I see." Roy thought that the youngest prince's name was indeed heroic.
Damien narrowed his eyes at Roy.
"Your training will take in another place. Follow me."
Saying this to Roy, he walked out of the garden and went into the mountains.
'Where is he taking me?'
Roy followed after him in the same way manner a chick would follow the chicken.
"Are you aware of the true differences between a trainee, a weapon master, and an aura master?"
Damien asked Roy in a cold voice as they headed deeper into the mountains.
"Somewhat, but I would love to hear your thoughts on them," Roy replied to him.
"There are two major differences between them. The first is that, on average, trainees have 0 limiters removed while Weapon Masters and Aura Master have 1 and 2 limiters removed, respectively. The higher the stage, the harder it is to remove a limiter. That's why you were recommended to remove one as a trainee, but it looks like you have removed quite a few."
"How did you…-!"
"You should learn to hide your breath. It's as powerful as a level 7 aura beast."
Roy halted for a moment upon hearing his words and then breathed out to make the tremor in his heart disappear and chased after him.
Damien wasn't even looking at Roy, but he still felt his gaze on him and thought he might have eyes behind his head.
"Before I explain the second one to you, I will explain the typical difference between them."
Damien went on to explain the first three stages of a knight in detail.
Trainees temper their bodies to open up their aura gate and gain access to their inner world.
A peak-level trainee uses unique breathing techniques to draw the world's energy into their inner world, where it is refined into energy they have certain control over. It's called Aura.
A peak-level trainee uses his aura to execute aura techniques and perform sword skills that transcend the norm.
But that's all that is special about them.
Compared to weapon masters, they are truly lacking.
Weapon masters, as one might already know, are awakened who possess a class and a class weapon and have one limiter removed.
Each class weapon has a trait unique to it which can be manifested by feeding it with aura.
The ultimate attack that Delilah used against Roy when she was aiming for his life is an example of that.
The next stage is reached when a weapon master completes his journey and progresses their basic job class into an advanced job class.
A person with an advanced job class is called an aura master.
When a person advances to the aura master stage, they are blessed with a closed network of aura meridians that are spiritual and ethereal in nature throughout their body.
They appear as tattoos for some and lines for others.
"When they open up their aura meridians, they gain the ability to permanently solidify their aura and manifest it in reality in different shapes. This is what separates an aura master from a weapon master and a trainee. Their aura can take permanent forms. It's no different than turning raw material into a product. In this case, you are turning raw energy into a solid object. The youngest prince's aura control is at the same level as an aura master." Damien explained to Roy.
