Chapter 665 The Belligerent Escanor

"Actually, you've also noticed it, haven't you? Your magic power is completely different from others', even far surpassing them by a lot. You must have thought about it yourself. Is your magic power really magic power?"

Asahi's words left Escanor a bit stunned. He had indeed thought about this problem, because his magic power was different from other people and could not be controlled. It is also so strong that it is not like human's power.

It could be said that others' powers hovered around stages one, two, or three, but he had shot straight up to over one hundred.

This gap had made him doubt whether his magic power was... something that humans could possess.

"Do you know the source of this magic power?"

Escanor asked in doubts. Since this person possessed the same power as him, he wondered if maybe he knew. Moreover, he noticed that the other person's power was perfectly controlled, even to the point where it could be freely manipulated, something he couldn't do.

"Yes, the source of this magic power is indeed magic, but also not magic. Your Sunshine, it has been with you since birth. So it is indeed your magic power, but the reason it's not purely magic is that it had a previous owner."

"The previous owner of Sunshine was the strongest of the Four Archangels of the Goddess Clan, Mael. This power was bestowed upon him by the Supreme Deity. However, due to some incidents, this power detached from him and eventually attached itself to you."

"Your body cannot control such immense power, so the power often goes berserk. However, because it's attached to you, this still counts as your power, so you will never die because of this power."

"If a normal human were to use this power, the final outcome would be... turning themselves to ashes."

"Your power won't burn you to death now, but if this power were to be extracted once, then if it returned again, it would be your time to die. Do you have any more questions?"

Asahi looked at Escanor and asked.

"Yes, there are still some questions. I really want to know, since this power originated from the Four Archangels, why is it also present in you? Did this power split later on?"

Escanor asked with curiosity, as he couldn't understand these things.

"It's very simple. This power was created by the Supreme Deity. Since he created this power, it means that this power can be created, so it's natural for me to possess it as well."

Asahi explained with a nod. However, Escanor was a bit speechless. He wondered if Asahi was this implying that his strength was comparable to the Demon King and the Supreme Deity? He had only heard about these two terrifying beings in legends.

"Alright, then the last question. How do you control this power? I'm willing to pay any price, so please tell me!"

Escanor could be arrogant to others, but not to Asahi. It's because Asahi also possessed this power, and this power was being controlled, which made him very wary.

"Actually, to control this power, it's very simple. Your strength just needs to reach a level where you can harness it."

"But as I said before, your power is not your innate magic power; it has been replaced."

"This means that the only way for you to become stronger... is this power. So, trying to control this power with your own strength alone is almost impossible, unless you can learn other powers and grow to fully master this power."

Asahi pointed out a clear path for Escanor, but this path was one that Escanor was destined not to tread.

"If I could possess such power, I wouldn't be troubled. Since you have mastered this power, then you should have a way, right? Can you help me?"

Usually, it is really impossible for Escanor to say these words. It's mainly because this ability had troubled him for too long, that's why he can now willing to set aside his pride to gain control over this power.

It wasn't that he wasn't prideful, nor was there an issue with the original work. It was just that the cost this time was worth him setting aside his pride.

"I do have a way, but why should I help you? It seems I have no reason to help you, right!"

Asahi stated casually. He had no obligation to help Escanor and pointed out that offering a path was already quite generous.

"Well said. So, what price can I pay? Any price that can be paid is acceptable!"

In order to solve the troubles caused by this power, Escanor was also ready to go all out.

"It seems like you're really troubled by this power. In that case, I'll be straightforward. I can teach you how to master this power, but the condition is that you must join my ranks, become my subordinate, that's it."

"Of course, I won't let you harm your own relatives, companions, etc. Joining my ranks won't conflict with being a Holy Knight of this country. The decision is yours!"

After laying out the conditions, Asahi didn't say much more.

"I see. If there's no conflict, then it seems acceptable. But let's have a battle first. Even though you've mastered this power, I want to see how strong you really are. Weaklings cannot become my boss!"

Well, his nature was truly hard to change. Now, his pride had risen again, or perhaps it was the unyielding spirit possessed by a strong individual, even though Escanor was only a pseudo-strong, becoming half-useless after nightfall.

But during the day, his arrogance wouldn't easily disappear.

"You want to fight? Well, that's not impossible. Fine, I also want to see how strong you are now!"

Asahi nodded. A fight was inevitable. As for how strong Escanor really was, Asahi knew very well.

So now, facing Escanor, Asahi wasn't nervous at all.

"Let's do this then. Oh, by the way, can I use weapons? I see you don't have any... Well, just take it I didn't say anything!"

Originally, he mentioned weapons, but unexpectedly, Asahi pulled out another Divine Axe Rhitta, which made Escanor speechless. If it weren't for the fact that they looked different, he would have doubted whether this person was another version of himself.

However, since the other party also had a Divine Axe Rhitta, there was nothing more to say. He went straight to the action.

After releasing the restrictions on his strength, Escanor's power level began to skyrocket madly, and his body swelled even more. With a sudden swing of the Divine Axe Rhitta in his hand, it clashed with the Divine Axe Rhitta in Asahi's hand.

With one large and one small figure, the difference should be obvious, but they immediately reached a stalemate.
