"I need to get back to the mansion to make sure the humans are cultivating as they should. I hope what I told the two of you has helped you solve your problem." Synthia said before leaving and flying back to the mansion.
"So, what are you gonna do now?" Alice asked, looking at .
"I'm going to see if I can do sothing about my aura." I replied and sat on the floor with my legs crossed.
"What am I supposed to do?" Alice asked
"Whatever you want I guess?" I shrugged
"Ok, then." She said and licked her lips. Then she pounced on and bit into my neck. She had completely stopped drinking from blood bags by now since I started to let her drink my blood whenever she wants a few days ago.
"Thanks for the al." She said and wiped so blood off her lips before she went upstairs.
'Okay, then no more distractions.' I thought and closed my eyes.
I already knew that to suppress my aura I needed a combination of a strong desire and will by using the [Demonic Energy Manipulation] skill. The problem with this was that I didn't have a strong desire or rather a strong enough desire to suppress my aura. When I created the [Demon's Pride] I was in the heat of battle and had a strong desire to survive and an even stronger desire to dominate and kill my opponent. For [Demon Enchant] it was the strong desire to kill my opponents and have a strong weapon capable of slicing through my enemies. [Senses Manipulation] was relatively easy to make with little desire needed at least not as much as the other two.
Now what strong desire do I have that I could use to suppress my aura. I spent hours sitting on the floor but I couldn't think of anything but I wasn't willing to give up.
*Bam*
I felt sothing smack across the head and I heard a snicker echo around the house.
"Alice!!!" I shouted angrily and I heard the snicker go upstairs.
'That little…..how dare she..' And there I have it, a strong desire. I imdiately closed my eyes and let all my emotions run wild instead of suppression it. I felt rage, frustration and a bit of jealousy. Rage that Alice was being a little prick, frustration because of my continued failure and jealousy because Alice can do what I can't. This could work. I activated my [Aura Vision] and I could see my aura burn furiously, even more so than usual. I fueled my rage by thinking of all those tis Alice managed to piss off and my aura flared up even more. I tried to suppress it using [Demonic Energy Manipulation] but after around half I started to feel a massive headache so that wasn't it.
Next I indulged my frustrations by thinking about how many tis I failed and I could feel my aura shrinking and I suppressed my aura using my skill as well. I managed to suppress my aura past a half and I didn't feel a headache. I suppressed it even more and I started to feel a headache but not as powerful as before. I managed to suppress it past the quarter point before I couldn't anymore due to headache. So close. I started to indulge my feelings of envy as well, envy at the fact that Alice could do sothing that I couldn't, and I could feel the headache lessening and my aura being suppressed even more. Soon all of my aura was suppressed inside my body with none of it showing to my [Aura Vision] and my body looked like a grey outline completely blending in with my surroundings. I couldn't help but get excited over my success and that was a mistake. My aura ca gushing out of my body like a flood along with a head splitting headache worse than I ever felt before.
'Fuuuck.' I scread in my mind because of the pain but I was still excited. I rubbed my forehead for over half an hour before I decided to start again. I conjured my emotions of jealousy and frustration and started suppressing my aura again. But I got excited once again and the sa thing happened again. This cycle continued for hours until I finally learned to suppress my excitent enough for my aura not to leak out again. Then I held my aura for who knows how long and then the system finally rewarded for my hard work and pain.
[Congratulations, you have unlocked the Trait, Stealth.]
"Yes!!" I said excitedly, releasing my aura, and this ti, I didn't feel the familiar headache, making grin.
