Both Helar and Elise glanced at each other after hearing Aron's confidence in the matter. They had nothing to lose by checking how potent his manner was so Elise stood up from her seat and approached him.
She then crouched behind him and placed her palm on his back. The two remained in that posture for quite so ti in silence before Elise spoke.
"Relax and let your mana flow out naturally."
Aron followed her words and in the next mont a ferocious aura erupted from and covered the entire area of the airship and even part of the exterior.
!!!
Shock, Panic, Surprise... it was hard to say what exact emotion the two elder's where feeling in that mont.
However saw this as his only opportunity to have his Luna mana removed, sothing that would be extrely beneficial to them so he chose to let even that part of him erupt.
Boom!
"Retreat back!" Helar saw that the situation had now passed a point of safety and now beca extrely dangerous to be near him as his aura beca extrely corrosive to even them.
The pair commanded all to retreat out of the airship before their protective barriers failed and they got injured.
Once outside the airship they along with so other Kolieans looked at the phenonon with wide eyes... the once lavish and grand airship was now akin to a danger zone.
They could here the potent mana practically fizzling and destroying everything in it's path, for most normal races this would be disaster worth fearing but for the Kolieans...
"Incredible... he's incredible!" The usually calm and strict Elise had lost all composure at this sight. Never in her life had she ever witnessed such a thing.
"I've never seen any male with such a vicious and potent aura, it's greater than even Harald's but extrely chaotic.... We need to act now. Gather the elites!!"
What looked to be a normal chaotic mana fluctuation to the other races was a common sight among the Kolieans although a case like Aron's had never been seen.
Koliean won could distinguish the two auras present in Aron with vision alone in the form of colored mist. A bluish light mist for won and a dark greyish and thick for males.
However Aron currently exuded both in nearly equal amounts of ferocity.
'He's mad! We need that mana before he dies...' For soone to reach this extent normally ant death.
Elise knew this well and so she wasn't hopeful, she only wanted her people to gain benefits from this and the sa could be said for Helar who imdiately gathered their very best elites.
...
Without delay a large circle was ford around the airship since no one could enter it without feeling a burning sensation on their skin.
Once in formation, the females, Selha and the two Elders included stretched out their hands forward and began using the sa art.
[ Kol Origin Art : Drain ]
In the next mont the fizzling aura began to crackle even more however the lighter part of it in the vision of the Koliean's began to fade.
"What's going on?"
The phenonon didn't go unnoticed by the academy officials, including Lady Uva who wanted to go out and observe but felt a stinging feeling on her skin the closer she got.
Everyone felt the similar feeling that was hard to stomach, it made them nauseous, dizzy, feel weak and sharp pains all at the sa ti despite being outside the potent area of effect.
"I must see!" A curious professor opened the large door and wanted to walk out to observe what was going on however...
"Ahhh!!!"
The second he stepped into the area of effect he began to feel the burning sensation and his skin corroded away at an alarming rate.
!!
The others watched this happen with wide eyes but no one had the courage to step forward and save the poor fool in fear that the sa would happen to them.
"Everyone must leave the premises now, I don't know what's going on but it's beyond our control... is Aron safe in art?" Lady Uva thought with visible worry on her face.
"Of course, he knows what he's doing."
Lady Rose didn't doubt Aron's ability and knew for a fact he wouldn't take a risk without the cards to back it up, besides the last ti she saw him do this he survived just fine.
...
Back near the airship the scene beca drastic.
"Elder Elise! I'm reaching my limit, I'll need to properly assimilate all this mana before I can take anymore, please have soone take my place."
A female in the standard faded gold armor cried out towards Lady Elise who was taken by surprise.
"Already?"
She was genuinely astounded, normally there wasn't enough mana to go around and help them evolve but now... it had beco far too much.
"Tsk. Imdiately you feel saturated have soone take your place! One of you go call the won outside as well now!" Helar was sweating profusely as she tried to assimilate and absorb the mana simultaneously which was a rather hard task.
Sothing only her, Elise and Selha could do among the females present and yet there was still so much mana in Aron's aura for them to take, seemingly unending.
The center of all this chaos Aron was alone in what could be called the eye of the storm. His face didn't look contorted in pain like before and instead showed a look of certain satisfaction as the Luna mana slowly separated from him.
It was a feeling akin to being relieved of stress yet extrely pleasurable. Aron could almost understand the n for choosing to live under such a thod.
Growing stronger and having others to take away what you don't need in a pleasurable manner.
He hadn't even overco this problem completely yet but already began his ambitious thinking to grow in power, knowledge and strength.
'I don't care what heirachy they believe in, it's ti for change...'
If Aron could gain control over them even if not directly, he could could focus solely on raising his strength.
This experience was currently showing him that to successfully siphon his mana, soone needed to be above his level and even then they needed to be as skillful as the Elders who he could feel where draining him most efficiently without getting saturated.
....
The days began to pass with many Koliean females entering the inside of Galos City so as to participate in draining Aron of his unneeded mana.
Aside from Selha and the two Elders everyone else needed to take turns and rest yet the satisfaction from the experience left them all craving more and anxiously waiting their turn.
For Kolieans this was true pleasure and growth all in one. A feeling indescribable by words alone.
Aside from Kolieans only three other people stood within the vicinity of the aura and didn't seem at all bothered.
Lady Rose who would occasionally stop by, Juliet who had observed the process one day and Evanora who never left, sacrificing her sleep just to be sure Aron was safe.
The rings around her eyes beca more visible but she never budged.
While this happened the other forces focused on acquiring more of what was needed with the help of the Koliean males who despite being described as declining were actually mostly tier three existences.
...
On the fifth day the Koliean won had finally drained the very last bit of Aron's Luna mana and were exhausted beyond belief yet if asked if they would endure all that again the majority would say yes.
Even Elise and Helar had disheveled hair and sweat running down their bodies as they sat uncaringly on the ground, not caring about how they looked to the others at all.
"It's impossible to store that... much without dying or going mad. So how?" Lady Elise was beyond confused at what she had just experienced and couldn't even begin to understand it.
"You know more than , I'm simply at a loss. By the ti we assimilate all this fully our entire female population will be able to evolve, the younger ones by two stages even." She revealed in amazent.
However just as they thought the situation was coming to an end, the fluctuations began to grow again, except this ti it was only Sol mana.
"Retreat now!" The tired Koliean quickly retreated back even further and completely left the Academy's premises.
The sight of many gigantic won running using movent techniques was indeed quite a strange, especially to the top brass who were watching the scene from outside the academy grounds.
Once they noticed the fluctuations stopped expanding the Koliean weapon no longer run and instead looked in awe.
"He's evolving..." Helar muttered.
"Yes but look at the color of the protective mist... it's white. aning this is his third evolution... he really had evolved only twice before this and still..."
Elise couldn't even comprehend what sort of existence her grand child was, their knowledge regarding their own people couldn't be used to understand him.
One thing they did know however was that he was a treasure like no other, right now he was the most important Koliean alive for them.
"Make a formation around the protective mist! I don't want so much as an insect getting in. And bring forth so airships to look above from the sky-"
While Elise began barking orders like a hysterical mother, an individual within the protective mist was actually walking through it with great ease and made it to the airship in which Aron was evolving.
Aron was currently laying down on the floor with his limbs spread, all his clothes had corroded away leaving him buck naked.
"So this is when you're most vulnerable..." the individual muttered.
