Breakers Chapter 12:

Chapter 12 - Chapter 2: Alliance #3 

From the tip of his head to his toes, he was four metres tall . His body was one of the largest among the ogres and he had a power that surpassed even the giants .

Among Zephyr’s followers, just his physical attack power could be considered the strongest .

In-gong swallowed his saliva as he was reminded of Vandal’s specs and appearance . When he was playing Zephyr, he really liked having Vandal as a subordinate .

‘I have to go against Vandal using Carack?’

In-gong compared them involuntarily . It was clear that Carack was no match for Vandal .

Vandal the ogre warrior - an ogre that could face 100 enemies alone . Wasn’t he equivalent to Zhang Fei in the Three Kingdoms?

‘By the way . . . is there a reason to think like this?’

Right now, it was Year 512 . However, Vandal hadn’t become Zephyr’s subordinate until Year 515 .

In other words, Vandal wasn’t Zephyr’s yet .

‘Isn’t this an opportunity?’

He could obtain Vandal as a subordinate . This meant more than getting his hands on Vandal . It meant that Zephyr’s power would be weakened!

In-gong swallowed with excitement involuntarily . As his increase in level caused a rise in intelligence, he started remembering more things .

Vandal liked royal gifts . The female ogres that Vandal liked . Vandal's specialties .

And the most important condition to obtaining Vandal!

In-gong sighed for a long moment . Vandal’s condition was to defeat him in a one-on-one fight .

His desire to serve a strong ruler was one of his primary character traits .

'Just . . . keep an eye on him . ’

Anyway, Vandal wouldn’t become Zephyr’s subordinate until Year 515 . There was still enough time .

"Prince?"

Carack called out to In-gong with an anxious expression . He had become excited then sad all on his own, so it was natural for Carack to be confused .

"Ah, I was wondering about General Vandal . How many troops does he have?”

Carack replied sincerely to In-gong’s question .

"He has a total of 3,000 people . While we hit the bottom, he knocked over the top of the Red Lightning tribe . ”

In-gong pictured it in his head . The main army of the Red Lightning tribe was in a different place .

‘Then we detoured around the enemy . ’

Their battlefields were in different places . so he wouldn’t meet Vandal for a while .

'Yes, I will concentrate on Caitlin . ’

Chris and Caitlin were more important than Vandal at the moment .

"I’m glad that you are okay . Rest well . ”

Carack laughed and got up to leave . In-gong nodded, then he suddenly reached out to grab the leaving Carack .

“Carack!”

"What is it?

Carack asked and In-gong rubbed his belly .

“I am hungry . Give me rice . ”

He hadn’t eaten anything since lunch .

Carack nodded and left .

Once the next morning arrived, In-gong was facing Caitlin . As expected, he ended up meeting with the two people .

"Don’t do that again . ”

Caitlin’s face was hard . It was almost as cold as the time Zephyr caught Caitlin .

Chris just laughed and said,

"You shocked Caitlin yesterday . Don’t you know I would have been beaten to death if you died?”

“Oppa . ”

Caitlin glared at him and Chris shut his mouth . However, his eyes were still full of playfulness .

It was especially obvious when he looked between In-gong and Caitlin . Fortunately, even though she had a cold face like she had when facing Zephyr, Caitlin’s eyes were worried . In-gong was pleasantly surprised and held back his laughter .

"Hmm, hmm . I’m okay and thanks to that, didn’t I awaken?”

After In-gong’s words, the two people didn’t respond immediately . Caitlin blinked at his words while Chris got up blankly from his seat .

“Perhaps?”

Chris didn’t say anything else . He walked in front of In-gong and placed a big hand on In-gong’s wrist .

A red aura covered Chris’ hands . At that moment, In-gong felt the aura inside his body reacting .

"This child, did you really?”

Chris was shocked . His eyes showed that he couldn’t believe it .

"Did you really just awaken Aura?”

He muttered again like it was absurd . In-gong thought it was quite funny and answered with a small smile .

"No, feeling Aura directly was important . ”

He felt it . It was right that he awakened after being hit but he couldn’t possible say it directly like that .

“Hah, oh my **** . What is this guy? Was he someone who hid his claws?”

Shutra’s nickname was Prince of Scraps . Shutra was a sickly prince who was less skilled than an ordinary Villager A .

However, at present, he just woke up Aura with his own power? Moreover, he did it after experiencing a real Aura once?

"Shutra, can you activate your aura? I will help you . ”

Caitlin regained herself and said to In-gong . There was a little bit of excitement in her voice .

‘Activate my aura? Is she talking about the Aura system?’

It didn’t end after awakening Aura .

Feeling Aura was just the first step . In fact, this was no different from before Aura was awakened . It was just preparation for developing Aura .

Activating Aura was the second step .

It was often called the step where Internal Strength type Aura was utilized .

There were many applications of the Internal Strength Aura system but the basics were the same . It was to make the circulation of Aura in the body faster and stronger . The use of Internal Strength Aura greatly improved physical abilities . Caitlin’s slender arms were capable of a lot of force thanks to Internal Strength Aura .

The third step was to externally release Aura .

Aura would literally drain out of the body . Once this stage was reached, weapons could be covered with Aura or it could be shot out like energy . It was commonly referred to as an aura blade in games and manga .

Finally, the last step was the embodiment of Aura . The power of the soul would be symbolized through Aura .

This was the ultimate stage of Aura and humans called it the Heavenly Sword .

Anyhow, In-gong was merely at the first step of awakening Aura .

Yet, she wanted him to try and activate it now?

"Hey, that is too hard . How is he supposed to activate Aura when he just got it yesterday? He would have to be a genius to do that . ”

Chris shook his head like it was ridiculous but Caitlin was unmovable .

"Just try it once . ”

Then she grasped In-gong’s hand lightly . In-gong blinked with surprise at the light touch .

Usually strong warriors had calluses on their hands but Caitlin didn’t have any . In-gong was surprised but he had the perspective of a pre-university student who had just graduated high school, so he was just surprised by the softness .

'It feels good . ’

His face turned red . Fortunately, Caitlin was focused on In-gong’s hands instead of his face .

"I’ll start . Just follow me . ”

Caitlin took a deep breath and closed her eyes . In-gong thought, ‘Long eyelashes!’ While he was thinking, a blue aura covered him slowly .

It was being guided and In-gong made his aura mimic the movements .

It might have been possible if In-gong really was a genius who awakened Aura after experiencing it . However, In-gong wasn’t such a genius .

After closing his eyes and trying to concentrate, In-gong finally changed his mind and glanced up .

Chris was staring at Caitlin while Caitlin was concentrating with her eyes closed .

‘I’d like to surprise them . ’

It wasn’t just that . Right now, Aura was a necessary skill for In-gong . There were no room for slow growth, so he used the skill points .

[Aura Lv2]

In-gong used the system to increase the level of Aura . At that moment, Caitlin opened her eyes . She noticed something about In-gong .

In-gong’s aura was active . He followed Caitlin and started his own lively movements .

Caitlin was startled and her mouth dropped open . It was evident that she wanted to praise him but that wasn’t the end of her surprise .

‘It still isn’t enough to be used in battle . I would be a fool to close my eyes now . ’

He used his remaining skill points .

[Aura Lv3]

A pale white light glowed from where Caitlin and In-gong’s hands were joined . Caitlin’s face froze while Chris’ eyes widened from where he was watching on the sidelines .

"G-genius?"

Wasn’t he a person who had just awakened Aura yesterday? Now, he had reached the basics of release?

Of course, In-gong hadn’t completely mastered Internal Strength Aura despite reaching the third step .

The second and third steps were virtually parallel steps . Moreover, In-gong was only at the basics for both stages .

However, even that was abnormal . Despite the racial characteristics of a lycanthrope, a good teacher and abundant talent, even Chris needed a year to reach this stage .

“Amazing . ”

Caitlin declared . She stared at In-gong with sparkling eyes and laughed brightly .

“Really amazing!”

‘Kuk, I feel cleansed . ’

Her sunny smile stabbed at In-gong’s conscience . In-gong sneaked a peek at Chris . He was so shocked that it was like he lost his soul .

‘Should I feel sorry?’

However, it was a good thing .

In-gong looked back towards Caitlin and a manly smile appeared .
