Chapter 230 Teaching
Leading a group of people down the stairs, standing in the dimly lit corridor, Yaro turned to the nervous crowd behind him and explained:
"You should have already discovered that shadow monsters are very sensitive to light, so to get rid of these monsters, you first need enough light."

Snapped!
Yaro cast the spell swiftly and decisively, with tiny sparks flying from his fingertips.

To become an intermediate wizard apprentice, one must imprint the three elements of the three schools of magic into one’s consciousness space. This imprinting is somewhat similar to the crafting of enchanted artifacts.

This is why intermediate wizard apprentices can gain the ability to cast spells quickly without hand seals or incantations when performing their core spells.

After witnessing this amazing scene, the crowd stirred for a moment, with the excited little girl exclaiming repeatedly, "Wow! That's incredible!"

"go with!"

Ignoring him, Yaro subtly moved his mind, and the sparks flickered and drifted, gradually passing over the old candlesticks around him, lighting up one by one the candlesticks that had already been filled with candle oil.

The flickering candlelight, aided by the faint sunlight, illuminated the narrow canyon, causing shadows to recede and disappear into dark, hidden corners.

"Did any of you remember where those shadow monsters were hiding?" Yaro looked at them one by one, including Bard, Dylan, and several young servants. But when faced with Yaro's bright gaze, they all lowered their heads, as if a beautiful woman had appeared on the ground, attracting their attention.

Heri jumped up and down, excitedly pointing to a corner above her with her good hand: "I! I remember it, it's in that corner of the beam above! I saw two dark figures disappear into that spot with my own eyes!"

The sunlight shining down from the sky and the design of the candlesticks mainly illuminated the ground, leaving the area above the corridor as a dark corner, which is why many shadow creatures chose to hide in the various corners above.

Even with Heri's guidance, everyone around remained silent, pretending not to know and keeping their heads down. Only Heri, completely unaware of what was happening, skipped and hopped to the shadows, fearlessly pointing to every hidden corner, repeatedly saying, "There's one here, and two there..."

Silent Bevan pulled Heri back, gently covered her mouth with his hand, and softly soothed her, "Okay, okay, we know."

To Heri, who knew nothing about it, it was simply a strange shadow.

To others who have witnessed the shadows devouring the living, they are incredibly terrifying, invisible demons!

Arrodo glanced at Bevin, nodded slightly, and thought, "He may be timid, but he has a good character."

"Kind people should always be treated more favorably. The more kind people there are, the more likely you are to receive positive feedback."

As Yaro thought this, he began to answer:
"The pitch-black ground is just like the ground we walk on normally to them."

"A faint light is like a smooth ice surface, which allows them to move more quickly."

"As long as the critical point is not exceeded, the brighter the light, the faster they move."

As he spoke, Yaro raised his left hand.

"Sun Fist."

With a slight shift in consciousness, the raised fist emitted a bright light.

Under the light, the shadows at the top of the corridor writhed and struggled.

But the bright light around them was like a cage, confining them to their spot so they couldn't move at all.

As the light continued to shine, a series of mournful cries, like the hissing of wild rats, echoed in the void, and wisps of blue smoke drifted from them, while the shadowy figure grew smaller and smaller.

……

A gentle breeze swept by, carrying away a fine speck of dust, while the bright light illuminated the dark corners without obstruction.

"These two shadow monsters are dead."

Yaro's explanation caused a stir among the group once again.

Is this solved?
I feel so relaxed!

So easy—it feels almost unreal!

Are those shadows still the same shadow demons that destroyed Perrin's territory and killed countless people?

But that's just how things are in this world.

Without knowing how to catch a venomous snake, any venomous snake can easily kill a strong, healthy adult man. But if you know the techniques, even a six-year-old child can easily catch and kill it.

Ignoring their thoughts, Yaro continued to cast his light into another corner, asking, "Knowing their current state, why don't they dodge?"

Heri immediately broke free from her restraints and quickly replied, "I know! The ground is too slippery for them, they can't move!"

“Yes! That’s it, a very good answer!” Yaro smiled and nodded to the cheerful little girl, approving of her answer.

"Hehehe..." Heri turned to look at the nervous Bevan behind her, her good left hand on her hip, laughing with an adorable look of smugness, as if she was looking down on their cowardice and showing off that she could actually answer the question.

—Although the question was something that anyone present could have imagined, they all chose to remain silent.

As Yaro manipulated the beam of light and made new attempts, he explained, "Direct light can confine shadows to their place, while if you choose to shine from the side instead of directly, you can drive them away like a flock of sheep."

As the light shines on the edges of the shadows, the writhing shadows in the corners begin to float, giving way to the brighter areas. But the brighter areas continue to move, gradually encroaching on the space of the dark corners.

As the shadows in the dark corners grew thinner and thinner, the shadows hiding within could no longer bear it and quickly broke free, like rats crossing the street, passing under the pillars of the corridor staircase and swiftly disappearing into the shadows beneath Aro's feet.

"what!"

The servants' expressions changed drastically, and they quickly took a few steps back.

Bard looked extremely nervous and pointed at the shadow below, hurriedly reminding, "Sir! The monster has gone inside!"

"Don't worry."

Yaro glanced at the shadow beneath him and said calmly, “Your own shadow is no different from any other shadow, so there’s no need to worry about them hiding in it. They can’t be like venomous snakes that can kill you with a single bite.”

"And they are actually more vulnerable when they hide in your shadow."

As he spoke, Yaro walked steadily to a brightly lit spot, where his shadow appeared even deeper in the light.
