Noah looked at Erebus and centuries, now that he looked at him, Erebus looked more like one of those guys who look tough but are actually like marshmallow.

“…S-so it…m-manipulates y-you emotions, to…” Siglos thought. This armor's enchantments were beyond anything the Everian had seen in the past. It seemed to him more like a parasite then a magical armor.Erebus nods as he looks back at his arm.
"The armor removes the pain I feel and is a hotbed for all negative emotions to bubble up inside the user... turning them berserk."
"Beats me..." he said.“…S-so it…m-manipulates y-you emotions, to…” Siglos thought. This armor's enchantments were beyond anything the Everian had seen in the past. It seemed to him more like a parasite then a magical armor.
“…I-is it…a-alive?” Siglos murmured. Hesitantly, he focused his Mana Hearing, taking a few, careful steps back as he listened to the magic within metal.
Siglos stumbled backward, his breath catching in his throat. He lost his balance suddenly, his body falling back onto the cobblestone below. Quickly, he covered his ears with his hands taking several deep breaths. He was scared…terrified even yet also…angry, even the brief exposure to the armor words inspiring a brief, yet intense feeling of fury in the young Everian heart."Beats me..." he said.
As the Everian listened, voices start to plague his head. Things about his father, things about revenge, and things about killing— all of it start echoing as he listens.
Erebus noticed the same reaction he had with the sword from earlier.Siglos stumbled backward, his breath catching in his throat.

“W-wha…h-huh…?” He muttered, his eyes wide. His fists clenched and unclenched, his breathing heavy.
Siglos took a few more breaths, gradually attempting to calm himself down.Erebus noticed the same reaction he had with the sword from earlier.
"That's enough questions for today, you may get hurt if you continue." he said, sighing as he picks up his sword and looks at Jeanne and the others, whom he'd noticed long ago but bothered not to tell the Everian.
"..." Erebus remained silent, though his nod meant a yes towards his statement. He stands up and holsters his sword into his back.Siglos took a few more breaths, gradually attempting to calm himself down.
“……” He stared at the man for a moment, before slowly calming down. The magic was…horrifying, to the least…but the Everian had learned from the experience, his brief contact providing him the smallest of inklings into the strange magic used within.
“….” Siglos slowly brought himself to his feet, taking a shaky breath. He glanced at the armor for a moment, shivering intensely.
“…I…I w-want to s-study t-them more…w-when I-I’m….b-better p-prepared.” Siglos said softly. He looked up at Erebus, bowing deeply.
“W-with y-your permission…”
Erebus slowly nods, moving his hands to come over."Oh- Is he... letting us know we can come over now?" Jeanne thought, tilting her head as she noticed Erebus' gesture. She knew Erebus had long since noticed them, that much was obvious to her, but she didn't know if she should approach.
Shalor tilted his head in confusion before speaking "but what if it helps you with your stress...?" Shalor asked"....I don't know if I even want to train anymore. This day has... forgive my language, oh goddess... completely sucked all kinds of ass." Jeanne said, placing her right hand on her chest gently
Erebus took some time before responding, giving Shalor a thumbs up."To find somewhere else to train... w-wanna join...?" Shalor asked both Siglos and Erebus, stuttering a bit
"It's your choice..." he responded."No, No, Shalor's right... You, with your massive build, would be... unsuited to training us humans, with our comparably much weaker and less resilient bodies. We can't regenerate, after all..." Jeanne said.
"But, speaking as someone who has no knowledge about training really, wouldn't he be good for like, testing our skills against in some way?" Shalor asked"No, No, Shalor's right... You, with your massive build, would be... unsuited to training us humans, with our comparably much weaker and less resilient bodies. We can't regenerate, after all..." Jeanne said.
"Shalor!-" Jeanne cut Shalor off, "F-Forgive his rudeness, Siglos, he doesn't know Everians aren't the most physically inclined..."Shalor smiled and nodded in understanding at Jeanne before looking confused at Siglos "Are you weaker physically or something?" Shalor asked in total confusion
"I-it's f-fine, Jeanne...r-really..." Siglos said, his cheeks growing slightly red."Shalor!-" Jeanne cut Shalor off, "F-Forgive his rudeness, Siglos, he doesn't know Everians aren't the most physically inclined..."
"I-i'm...erm...n-not r-really...b-built f-for fighting..." Siglos murmured, flashing him a crooked smile.Shalor smiled and nodded in understanding at Jeanne before looking confused at Siglos "Are you weaker physically or something?" Shalor asked in total confusion

"B-but...I-i'd love to s-see t-those...c-chains y-you have, in a-action. I-i'm a...craftsman, you see, a-and those c-chains seem...r-rather unique..."
"I-I'm sorry!" Shalor said instantly once Jeanne pointed out the mistake"Shalor!-" Jeanne cut Shalor off, "F-Forgive his rudeness, Siglos, he doesn't know Everians aren't the most physically inclined..."
Siglos cocked his head, before slowly nodding."I-I'm sorry!" Shalor said instantly once Jeanne pointed out the mistake
"B-but um... yeah, as long as you don't try to check their mana... unless you really really want to..." Shalor murmured
"...S-speaking of. H-how is y-your...armor h-holding u-up Jeanne? D-do the enchantment's still...f-function?" He asked quietly.Jeanne simply breathed out, looking down at her waist. Her eyes trailed down to the sword that had been hooked to her waist. A rusted, chipped sword, withered down from years of training, she had. Meanwhile she set to face those with unimaginable magicks at their disposal with such an average sword. How pathetic, she was.
"Haaaa... Another day, another dollar, Jeanne Constance Valentina." She thought to herself, before just shaking her head.
"Well, I wouldn't know. I haven't exactly taken a blow in quite a while to test its durability, and I've no Mana Sense to see the enchantment itself..." Jeanne said, her eyes staying on her sword even as she glanced up to Siglos slightly."...S-speaking of. H-how is y-your...armor h-holding u-up Jeanne? D-do the enchantment's still...f-function?" He asked quietly.
