Chapter 18

"Pressure?"

Raon frowned.

'I thought he would test my stamina and willpower.'

Considering the training that Rimmer had been instructing them on so far, he should've tested his stamina and willpower, and yet he chose pressure.

"Pressure?"

"Is he really testing pressure on the children...?"

"He really is going too far."

The parents spoke up, as they didn't expect the content of the test either.

"I'm the instructor, so please be silent."

Rimmer snorted and waved his hand.

"Pressure is an integral aspect of a warrior. I'm evaluating such an important ability, so why are you complaining so much?"

He wasn't wrong. Pressure was the harmony between the spirit and expertise of a warrior. A powerful pressure could often make the enemies lose their will to fight, without actually fighting.

"It hasn't been long since the children learned aura. Testing pressure is unreasonable."

"And some children didn't even learn aura."

"The test is completely unfair!"

"I knew you weren't aware of it. Pressure isn't just a manifestation of aura."

Rimmer swung his long finger left and right.

"True pressure is the combination of a warrior's achievements. It's a warrior's testimony, which can be manifested without an aura."

A chill and rusty wind surrounded the training ground alongside his firm voice.

'This is...'

Raon narrowed his eyes. Rimmer had just expanded his pressure without using aura, as if he were proving what he was saying.

"If you still want to complain, then ask the head of house."

Rimmer turned around. Smirking, as if he had never been serious, he bowed to Glenn.

"My esteemed lord, is a warrior's pressure created from aura?"

'Hah.'

Raon huffed. Rimmer was really an unexpected man, or elf, for him to suddenly involve the head of house.

"He's not wrong. Even those who never learned aura end up developing pressure, depending on how they've been living."

"Wow! As expected of my lord!"

Rimmer turned around and clapped his hands.

"Hmm..."

"Damn."

"If my lord says so..."

Since Glenn himself had said it, nobody could question it any longer-direct line and collateral alike.

That pointy-eared bastard just said something to my liking for the first time ever. Pressures created from something like mana, demonic energy or aura are all fake. A pressure stemming from the achievements of the soul is the only real one.

Wrath nodded in agreement.

It reminds me of back in the days in devildom. When insignificant demons started to run rampant, the King of Essence used a mighty pressure to make those fakes surrender... ugh!
