Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System -
Chapter 148: What Clarent And You Can Become
"I don't understand, how can a special sword ancestor be weak?" James suddenly asked. His curiosity seemed to be piqued.
At James' question, Vlad shook his head and then said, "It is a beautiful sword, but it will be weak, if not too weak, for the enemies you are likely to fight in the future."
The old ancestor's words made perfect sense to James, but planning to throw Clarent into a corner was the last thing he wanted to do, and so he felt it necessary to say something, even if it was disrespectful. Just as he opened his mouth and was about to speak, Clarent suddenly began to tremble.
Seeing Clarent shaking, Vlad smiled and then looked at the sword and said, "That's what you have to do, it doesn't matter that you are a replica, you have a soul, don't forget that." and continued to speak without stopping:
"The blood spilt on you, the hearts you pierced, the monsters you made cry, the beings you left to die and the gods you managed to kill! Remember every one of them! Remember all those souls that you hacked and slashed, who rushed forward cruelly to take the life of their master.
Thrive and continue to make your master proud." Vlad said, his spirit growing more and more euphoric with each passing second.
"If you do these things, one day you will cease to be a replica, your name will no longer be Clarent, but your own personality, your own image and your own consciousness. You will want nothing more than to be your devoted owner instead of what you remember in your original body, that will be your commitment."
"But if you refuse to do these things, all you will see in the end is to be cast aside, do not be so foolish as to wish only for your master, young sword spirit, you are Clarent now, but you can become a thousand times the true Clarent."
Vlad fell silent as he uttered these words and then the Clarent in James' hand stopped vibrating, seeming to settle down.
"I thought the lesson was supposed to be for me," James suddenly said, a little jokingly of course.
"Your sword needed to understand something, you don't want to be separated from it, and if it doesn't want that to happen, it needs to come to some realisation."
At Vlad's words, James nodded as if he understood and waited, ready to learn.
"Your aura is quite different from my father's and mine James, my father had a huge amount of light aura and that's where his power came from, it was much easier for him to cut down the bastards who mostly used [evil] black magic.
Still, with your aura it's not that hard to teach this art, it's just going to require a slightly heavier training style." Vlad said suddenly, James was taking notes in his mind while listening to the old ancestor.
"This sword art is divided into 3 parts. The first one works on slashing, which you do very well. As you can see in Unknown's Sword Scabbard, the scabbard is made for a very thin sword, a very sharp sword, and a sword that requires a particular mastery of piercing."
"What you need to do is to refine your aura. I have been able to get a few ideas about your aura based on the information I have observed myself and the information I have received from your aunt, both in the later and on the previous floors.
Aura is a power that you cannot easily master even if you have it to the highest degree, which is why it is much less preferred than magic and only a very small part can use it in the best way."
"So what I am going to teach you is to maximise that potential. Start using your aura for me and we'll go through it in detail."
James had his sword in a ready position for slashing after all he had heard and then he released his aura and great flames appeared in the hall. It was handy that the flames couldn't do any damage unless the owner of the aura gave permission.
Vlad shook his head in disappointment as he watched the young boy in front of him use his aura.
"Look James your aura is special. There are several reasons for this, but before I explain it, let me tell you exactly what aura is, I'm sure Chronos and the others have explained it to you properly, but the use of aura in this art is more special, so you should understand that." Vlad coughed and started to continue his speech.
"Aura is a force that penetrates all the blood cells, veins, bones and even the skin in your body, all your nerve cells are affected by this force.

The reason why you are using your aura incorrectly is that you are releasing the aura from your body, you are only able to use a small part of the released aura to use that power, this is the reason for the flames and small particles of time around you."
"What you need to do is to feel that aura in every cell and atami in your body, borrow that aura and spread it completely to a single point and when you master it, spread it all over your body. If I were alive, I could demonstrate it live, but all I can do now is tell you."
"Now, if you have understood even a little of what I have said, stop letting the aura out of your body, let it burn inside your body, let it run and benefit you, and when you have succeeded in doing so, pierce the aura itself and pass through it."
Having heard Vlad's words, James closed his eyes, trying to feel the aura inside his body, of course, he was succeeding, but every second he did it, it was as if the aura in his body was leaving him. With just a few simple words James realised the mistake, he could see how he had misused the aura.
He didn't know what to do to stop letting the aura out and that was the main problem, that's why he immediately stopped using his aura, sat down on the floor and started meditating after getting into the cross-legged position.
When Vlad saw this, he shook his head up and down with pride and confirmed that James was on the right track.
