Chapter 1015: Improved Prowess
"They are the Divine Thunder Moon Armour and the Divine Thunder Tyrant Symbols," Aerialia smiled. "The former provides multiple defensive techniques, while the latter offers multiple offensive techniques. Together, they grant unparalleled defensive and attacking capabilities, further increasing your prowess."
With the Celestial Embre Forge Technique, Orion could attack from long range with flames as radiant as the sun. They granted him unparalleled movement and protection in the sky, enabling him to traverse vast distances within minutes or seconds.
The Divine Spectral Blade Art enhanced his weapons, providing extraordinary capabilities. And now, with these two techniques and the numerous minor techniques and arts he had mastered to escape tricky situations, Aerialia felt reassured. She had full trust in his abilities and no longer needed to worry about him.
As he grew stronger, his prowess would continue to rise, further amplifying the capabilities of these techniques.
Aerialia then began explaining the intricacies of both techniques to him. The entry threshold for the Divine Thunder Moon Armour was much more challenging than any previous technique she had taught him, requiring about 25% mastery.
However, once this threshold was crossed, one could summon a cloak of lightning and thunder that provided protection and reduced any physical and energy attacks by 10%. At the 45% threshold, merging this thunder force with one\'s body became possible, enhancing defences and creating a numbing effect against attackers with each contact while also reflecting 20% of their attacks.
From the 75% threshold to the 100% threshold, the wielder\'s defensive prowess would keep increasing until it was truly unparalleled.
On the other hand, the Divine Thunder Tyrant Symbols involved condensing lightning into seven thunder symbols that could be unleashed in various combinations to deliver devastating attacks. The symbols were: the Symbol of Shock, the Symbol of Surge, the Symbol of Chain, the Symbol of Destruction, the Symbol of Precision, the Symbol of Conduction, and the Symbol of Tempest.
The entry threshold for this technique was just as difficult as that of the Divine Thunder Moon Armour.
Aerialia\'s detailed explanations increased Orion\'s anticipation. Mastering these techniques would enhance his offensive and defensive capabilities and solidify his standing as an
unmatched warrior.
"With your gift and your lightning form, I don\'t doubt that the effects of these techniques will rise astronomically. So, what do you think about them?" Aerialia asked with a smile. She could tell he had been anticipating this moment, and seeing his reaction, she knew she hadn\'t been disappointed.
"They\'re absolutely amazing," Orion responded, his voice filled with deep appreciation.
With these two techniques, as long as he didn\'t encounter an opponent far beyond his capabilities, he was confident in defeating them. He didn\'t doubt Aerialia\'s words, as with his gift, the effects of the techniques would be far more terrifying than in the hands of an ordinary individual.
Even though he could reproduce some of these techniques with his gift alone, it was clear that the techniques\' amplified power and intent made them a beautifully wrapped present for him. He was deeply grateful for Aerialia\'s guidance and support.
After several discussions with Aerialia and asking her numerous questions about the techniques, Orion fell into a contemplative silence, focusing intently on understanding them. Fifteen minutes later, he reached the 25 per cent threshold. Suddenly, a lightning cloak appeared, adorned with an illustration of a full moon with two wings-one small and the other extending outward-emerging on his back. The cloak also enveloped his arms like long sleeves.
Orion felt the transformation within his body as the technique took effect and couldn\'t help but be fascinated.
15 per cent!
28 per cent!
He marvelled at the changes but couldn\'t gauge the full extent of damage reduction until he faced an opponent powerful enough to test the technique.
Orion activated his gift, and his body became a being seemingly forged from lightning. The cloak seamlessly integrated into his form, amplifying the initial stage of the Divine Thunder Moon Armour to even greater heights.
30 per cent! 40 per cent!!
Again, he couldn\'t yet measure the exact increase in damage reduction as he had only reached the initial stages and had no one to try them on. Orion deactivated his gift, returning his body to its normal state, and continued to study the Divine Thunder Moon Armour.
He eagerly anticipated the level of damage he could deflect once he reached the next threshold.
Meanwhile, Aerialia observed Orion with a nod of appreciation. Thanks to Orion\'s gift, his learning curve for the divine technique was significantly shorter. If he continued at this pace with diligent training, he might achieve mastery within half a week, faster than with previous techniques.
Although his progress could be accelerated if he paused his other tasks, Aerialia knew that was not feasible.
After four hours of intense training and study, Orion deactivated his gift and heaved a weary sigh. The technique\'s intricacies were as challenging as ever, but he could sense that he was nearing the next threshold.
He decided not to overextend himself and wrap things up for the day. He still needed to return home early for Selene\'s and Shani\'s introduction into the household.
"Are you finished for the day?" Aerialia inquired.
Orion nodded. "I\'ll continue tomorrow. I have other matters to attend to before I push myself further," he replied.
Aerialia nodded in understanding. She knew his family\'s importance to him, much like his training, and recognized that pressing him further would be counterproductive. She immediately transformed into a stream of light and flowed into the mark of his small
greatsword.
Orion re-summoned the Crimson Greatsword and ascended into the sky, making his way toward the third border city.
Orion\'s Manor
The women sat quietly, gazes fixed on the two individuals standing before them. Some expressed shock and disbelief, others looked dumbfounded, while a few seemed to have reached a sudden realization. A handful wore nonchalant faces as if indifferent to the
unfolding scene.
