The group left the gate and made their way yo the closest forest. Not too long after arriving in there, Rean and Roan sneaked out of the group and took a few kiloters of distance. Opril and Diakar were already there waiting for them as well.
"Hey Rean, Roan, are you two really going to fight alone?"??
Roan nodded.
"Yes. Oh, right. I'll be teaching this idiot over there how to use a sword. If you want, you can do that as well. I'm pretty sure it will be of great help to you two in the future."
Opril and Diakar were taken aback. They had never seen Roan holding a Sword before, so how could he know how to use one? Sure enough, they laughed after that.
"Hahaha. Sure, we will take a good look."
Not too surprisingly, they didn't believe Roan. They can't be blad, though. After all, they still don't know that Rean and Roan aren't really kids. In their eyes, the twins are just a lot smarter than the others at the sa age.
Roan didn't mind their distrust. They would be able to see it by themselves later anyway.
Alanda had given Rean and Roan a copy of the map of the surroundings. Inside, he marked what route the bigger group would be using. Rean and Roan just had to follow them on the sides.
On their way, Rean would do the exercises with the Sword that Roan demanded. Although they can share new knowledge, old ones are different. It has to be taught. Of course, even new ones would take ti to learn as well. One thing is to know how to do it; other is to apply it yourself.
Fortunately, Roan just needed a single thought to convey everything he wanted to pass to Rean up to the smallest details. Around one hour later, Rean already could perform a few movents, although they looked quite clumsy.
"Rean, Roan, there is a demon beast ahead."
Opril and Diakar had been paying attention to the surroundings while Roan taught Rean. Their duty is to protect them both, after all.
Roan stopped Rean and then said.
"Alright, leave your Sword with Opril and Diakar for the mont. At your level, it will hinder you more than help. You will be responsible for holding the beast down and distract it while I'll do the final blow."
Rean nodded, and they imdiately moved out. Opril and Diakar also were there but kept so distance away to not scare the beast. They knew that Rean and Roan's objective was to kill the beasts themselves. Not to ntion that Alanda already told them to only intervene if things get dangerous.
"It's a two-tailed demonic ape. This demon beast is a little stronger than what I thought we would find. Still, it shouldn't be a problem now that we are in the Energy Gathering Realm."
The demonic Ape noticed Rean and Roan entering its territory and imdiately attack as well. Stage One demonic beasts don't have sentience, so they only move on instinct. Seeing how small the two kids were, it didn't feel any fear.
The twins then separated and attacked the beast from two sides. Rean went ahead first and accumulated Spiritual Energym on his first. The demonic Ape also answered with a fist of its own. It is a lot bigger than Rean, so it completely ignored Rean's punch.
Seeing that, Rean smiled. Suddenly, the Spiritual Energy accumulated on his hand started to shine. When both fists t each other, an explosion of light happened. The Ape's eyes imdiately got affected, and it began to punch around recklessly. Now that Rean is in the Energy Gathering Realm, he can manipulate a little of the Light Elent. Of course, it wasn't anything that impressive. At the mont, he could only play this kind of tricks and couldn't make the Light Elent really hurt soone alone.
Roan eye's lit up, and Spiritual Energy also accumulated on his Sword. The mont that the light burst out, he was already in the right position to attack. With his soul connection with Rean, no one could find a better timing than themselves. In a flash, a Sword embued in a Dark Colored Spiritual Energy pierced the Ape's neck.
Unfortunately, the beast's hide and muscles were really tough. It went just a few centiters before stopping completely. Roan was already expecting it, so he stepped on the Ape's back and used it as a foothold to jump away.
However, the Darkness Elent started to erode the place where the Sword hit. That was one of its traits, the capability of destroying life force. Unfortunately, Roan's control over the Darkness Elent wasn't any better than Rean's Light one. So the corrosion only lasted for a second or two.
The Ape quickly turned back, its eyes finally could see again. It didn't waste ti and went straight at Roan, unleashing a storm of punches. Yet, Roan was able to easily parry and block every single one of them with his Sword.
'As I thought. Using Spiritual Energy with a piece of equipnt is a lot harder. I couldn't bring out even 30% of my power compared to when I only use punches and kicks. Still, the next attack should go much better than the previous one now that I know where so of the issues are located.'
Opril and Diakar couldn't help but feel impressed with Roan. His ability with the Sword obviously far surpassed their own.
Rean also didn't waste ti. Since the Ape turned his attention to Roan, he used this chance to attack the beast's knee joint. This ti, he accumulated a lot more Spiritual Energy on his foot before attacking.
The Ape's hide and muscles might be hard, but that kick imdiately made it lose its balance and kneel down in Roan's front for a second. Roan, obviously, already knew that it was coming. So by the ti the Ape kneeled on the ground, a Sword was already flashing at its throat with Darkened Spiritual Energy. This ti, the power of this attack definitely surpassed 50% of what it could really beco.
Roan didn't try to cut the Ape's head off like the last ti. He focused on the throat instead. Blood spurted out at the sa ti that the Darkness Elent destroyed the life force inside. The Ape imdiately grasped its wound, but the cut was too deep. It was definitely going to die in a few monts. It tried to flee, but Rean was ready to block its path. After struggling a little, it finally lost its consciousness and fell on the ground. It was dead.
