In the past one month I have been training, cultivating and learning magical spells, breathing techniques and much more just for one single reason, to be allowed to atleast hunt beasts roaming in the nearby forests outside the city.
I first hand decided to learn magic spells, so that I will have something other than my skills and weapon arts. My mother gave me various fire element spells along with lightning spells and at least for now I decided to learn only these two elements spell because of my quest.
According to my quest I have to create 2 new stigmas. I don't even know how to create a spell and the system is asking me to create a stigma but instead of panicking I decided to start.
I decided to learn this elements spells because at least according to Uriel the system is asking me to create a {bloodline trait} stigma because only these two traits don't have any stigma, by using this elemental spells I can increase my understanding as well as will over this elements. The reason why I decided to first create stigmas is because I thought that if I knew how to create a parent, creating a child will be simple.
But my learning and using of only spells and skills somehow annoyed Julia. That's why she decided to teach me how to use Qi. Qi is special energy because according to Uriel I can't use this energy spiritual and can only be use physically because of this energies main requirement– Life force.
This energy was quite hard at start and took around 3 days and nights just to feel but once I got the understanding of how to use this energy it became easier.
It's the same as the spiritual veins which I can create using skills and stigma. But instead of creating new veins through CS it lets the World energy merge with my blood veins through breathing.
She taught me Ocean breathing, this is a advance breathing derived from water breathing and is used with katana or less weighing swords.
Their are in total 14 forms of Ocean Breathing and I have learnt upto 7 because the further forms required Higher Qi points.
It seems like the option and possibilities for Qi techniques is limited but it is not.
Just like mana Users have magic tiers, Qi users have points and this points are divided by 1st being the lowest and 12th being the highest.
I am currently at Qi point 2nd because unlike the other two energies which requires cultivation, Qi requires more usages.
And yes even though I have CS as my energy I still have to cultivate the magic cultivation and Dao cultivation. Mana being nearest to the spiritual body helps me increase my CS stat but compared to normal mana users it's growth is slow, this is one of the reasons why I want to level up and fast.
Qi's more usage trains my all other stats including health while Dao cultivation helps me increase my world affinity to be precise and currently I have been cultivating lightning and fire.
" I created a shadow dagger, a kunai to be precise and spended my whole mana and lightning intent in a teir 2 spell lightning passage. In short, I gamble by spending all my energy into that single attack." I didn't tell them that it was possible because of the limitlessness of my shadow.
Julia was shocked and the only thing she could think of was,' Young master Lucas, surely grew fast. Instead of learning everything and wasting his time, he only learnt what is going to be required for his survival and offence alongside defence, agility. At the same time he created as many cards as possible for his use. '
" The winner of this dual is Young lord Lucas, as he was able damage Julia. That's why young master Lucas passed the test." Lily was the first to break the awkward silence as both my mother and Julia were still in daze.
When they heard Lily's voice they both broke free from their nirvana and came towards me as fast as they can.
" Lucy, are you injured anywhere ?" my mother asked while checking my body from head to toe with worried expression.
" I-I am sorry..." Julia was saying when I said with a calm tone.
" I am fine, I am fine but now that I cleared the test shouldn't I be allowed to go outside." when I said that both the womans flinched and tried avert their gazes but.....
" Promises should not be broken~" I said with a expressionless cold face.
Seeing my cold expressionless face and my glowing blues, Athanasia tried to replied:
" I-I never s-said I am going to allow you if you completed the test, I said if it was satisfactory–"
" Then does that mean my dual wasn't satisfactory." I interrupted her with a my face becoming colder and colder in each passing seconds.
" Oh, thanks mother for telling me my non-stop training of one month was completely useless..."
Athanasia's face had a clearly noticable sad expression while looking at me with her eyes wide open.
" I guess I should push my body to it's very limits to the point not even a teir 5 healing spell could–"
" OKAY, Okay I agree I agree so please don't do anything." After saying that a sigh escaped her lips, after all she knew how stubborn her son can be if something does not go according to him.
' I guess you have gotten this habit from your father but atleast you are stubborn to the very end, unlike him who just gave up on me....' she thought to herself.
When she agreed I was going to jump with excitement but when I noticed her sad expression I simply shaked my head and hugged her with my arms around her neck as she was kneeling the whole time to check me.
" Don't worry mother, I know how much of a worrywart you are and it's not like I hate it. I just want to see the world and how it is, I want this world to accept me as Lucas de Zechs not as the son of Warlord Athanasia. And besides even if I went to the end of the world I will still return to the Zechs mansion at the end of day." When I said that my mother smiled but when she heard my last sentence, her face froze.
' You will return.... For now.....' she alongside Julia and Lily thought to their self.
" Alright fine, as long as you are not hurt it's fine.... I guess." She said as if not believing her own words at all.
It was already noon, I decided to take a cool shower as I was sweaty from the duel from earlier.
'haah, finally some relaxation...' I sighed.
' Well, I guess you will be finally able to level up.' Uriel said with excitement.
Level up, a concept which was created for me to grow stronger without any restraint. In this world their are various ways to grow stronger but all of them have limits or side-effects and even if you got lucky enough to avoid this them, their are which can only be obtained through system.
But the reason why Uriel was so happy is something totally unrelated to the perks of leveling system. As Uriel is one of the most ancient beings may be ancient enough to be born before this universe for her the knowledge and supernatural abilities which are exciting to me are just play things. That's why most of the time she is tinkering with the system and want to know more about it even though she is it's mother.
' Now that I think about it aren't you kind of the system's mother ?' I asked as a glint of curiosity flashed in my already glowing eyes.
' Yes, but if you know about the mythologies of god's and every fruit is different while some are delicious their are also some spoiled, bitter and nasty.' she said in narcissistic tone.
I understood what she was saying, ' Some childrens are obedient and faithful, some are naughty to the point they won't even look forward or backward to backstab their own mother.'
'... But still at the end of the day they are still fruit of the same tree and that tree will never compare them.' she as if remembering something of her past.
' See, my mother was a thrashy person so I don't know much about your feelings.... WAIT!? Didn't you say you were a virgin. How in the hell did you had a child!? ' I asked, bewildered.
To which she lazily said,' That's not something important. At least not now. I currently only have this child called system in front of me and for our child parent bonding you should go out their and hunt, hurmph!!' She snorted like a little girl trying to prove her point while showing her annoyance who didn't get it.
' Well, I should also get back to my son mother bonding.'
As I said this I prepared myself rinsing my water with towel and putting a black trousers with what seemed like a blue hoddie without a cap.
I went down in a dinning room which had a oversized table with more than 20 chairs including both sides. My mother was sitting in a majestic chair made by blue embroidery with some unique flame like design. The chair seemed more like a throne as it was a few inches taller from my mother's head.
' Is it normal to show your wealth like this...'
' Well, the stronger you grow the arrogant you become and that chair is thing of aesthetics.'
' That means I can also do things according to my aesthetics.... Sweeeet !!'
While I was having this conversation Julia prepared a plate for me. She alongside Lily was standing behind my mother left and right respectively. The people of this world are pretty simple minded and do whatever to please them. This also shows the powerful you are the freedom you have.
" So, mother you are not thinking of breaking your promise now are you."
I said with a calm voice while eating some special beef which was tender and juicy but if eaten by a jobless person will surely make their glands hurt, as I sat on the left chair adjacent to my mother's. Her face was drenched with sweat as she was stiffly moving her face towards right to avoid my gaze.
" O - Of course not " She said with her movements still stiff, not agreeing with the words I said but also not declining it.
' haah, It's good that I thought of some plan to make her agree without hurting her.'
" Mother, how about I help you to make your decision ?"When I said this words everyone's eyes lit up and my mother said :"..... Fine, go on " she said as she looked in my gaze but she didn't refuse because she already knew what the meaning of her son's eyes said, it says that no matter what you say I am not willing to give up.' I guess what everyone says is true, my lucy really seemed to have taken that man's stubborness but..... is it a good thing or bad ? ' She thought confused but she also felt disgusted to remember Lucas's father." I will take Julia or Lily alongside me for my hunt within the burning lotus forest."Burning lotus forest, this forest is a forest covered with thick, tall trees along with dark green coloured leaves which doesn't let the sunlight touch it's ground. This forest is on the south-east side of the Clystalin city and one of the most dangerous places near the city.The reason why this forest is named like
After that sweet conversation with my mother I went back into my room.After entering my room, my expression changed from the earlier cherry to the usual indifferent one. I was thinking about what Lily told me after I left the dinning room.' So I have to prepare myself ?'After that short conversation with the silvery hair maid which seemed to last barely 5 minutes I was forced to change my plans.From what Lily told me the only thing that I can think of is to become stronger. According to Lily even though my mother and the whole Zechs household will protect me from everything which can possibly harm me. I will have to show everyone that I am atleast above my peers so that they won't look down on me and also to show everyone how talented I am.I have to do all of the earlier mentioned stuff just not show that they can't touch me but also to show who's son I am.According to Lily, after the my mother's divorce everyone is only giving h
Haah, What a miserable death if I must say so.I was just enjoying my after meal walk while listening to the ' Ariana Grande ' when suddenly 2 pitch black cars suddenly and abruptly stopped in front of my way and a noble, elegant and handsome man with 4-5 burly bodyguard came out from the car's."A person like you shouldn't be walking in a road where even ruffling of the tree's can be heard now should you ? Older brother" the elegant man asked in a threating tone."What do you mean by a person like me, no wait what are 'you' even doin here younger brother ? " I asked with smile which was far from happy.By seeing that I didn't even show a hint of hesitation, panic or restlessness the 'elegant' man's handsome face turned into a scoul and he asked 2 of the burly bodyguard to make me kneel in front of him.Without any struggling I let those man make me kneel in front of the elegant man barely a foot away."How unsightly, to think that the heir
'Angel of wisdom URIEL!!?' I said with a calm voice and a ting of excitement." Wow, so you know me with that name hah, well yeah I am an archangel but not one of 7 archangel's, not anymore" she said in a sad voice which was hardly noticeable but still noticeable.' Okay...' I said in a my calm and indifferent voice.When I said that, the voice or ms.angel seemed to look at me with confusion and when I said look at me and did not explain how she looked right now was because even I didn't know how she looked like.I looked like a mass of dense gas with 2 glowing white dot side by side but ms.angel wasn't even present I can only hear her voice and sense her gaze somehow. I wasn't even able to speak and was communicating with thoughts" Don't you wanna know why I am not one of the 7 archangel's anymore ? " She asked after what seemed like small silence' Well, I will be lying if I said I am not curious but I have my own things I don't wanna tel
When Uriel heard his word's she was shocked but not because of her plan to get out of this eternal prison being destroyed but because of the way this barely 24 earth year's old boy already understood the way this reality is.Now, Uriel was not some young and dreamy girl, she had her own fair square of up's and down's in her life and her age might even be older than this humans planet." Hahahaha... you keep amusing human. Well, yes I do have a selfish wish but that was never to be free." Said the angel of wisdom while laughing like she have heard the most funny joke in her entire life.' Wait, do you mean that you are...' before I can even speak, Uriel explained." Young boy, you haven't even live one hundreth of my life. A long life has already taken my fear of death from me and yes no one forced me in here if I wanted to be free than you are not the only one who can take me out, in one way or the other I would already be free" she said in a somewhat pri
"wha-what the hell, it hurts!!?." I screamed inwardly when I felt a sharp pain in my belly area.Uwaaaaaa.....But instead of words only a painful but silly as of a toddlers cry was able to come out of my mouth, I didn't have the slightest of control over that cry it was as if even though I knew I should stop my body was not responding to my brain" Shtimera, sorus ka crual !!? " I heard a panicked voice.And before I could even open my eyes to see whose voice it was, I suddenly felt something warm going down from my abdomen to my lower part of body.It won't need a genius to prove that it was water but when the water fell on my body instead of relaxing I became more tense and started crying even louder." Cerus ku, cerus.." I heard a low voice of a woman as if trying to reassure me that theirs no problem and I should just relax.I don't know how but when I heard this voice I relax a bit, it's not like I stopped crying but it wasn't a
[Congratulations!!! Reincarnation process has been successfully completed with 100% success rate. ] ' Wait, before everything why does it show 100% success rate ? ' I said with frown on my baby face. ' What did you expect that I can just do a dangerous and doubtful process without any complications, but you should be happy shouldn't you that you were able to reincarnate without any complications ? ' she said with a pout if she had a face for it. ' No no no, it's not like I am happy or relieved because YOU didn't told me anything about complications oh great goddess of wisdom.' I said in a completely noticeable sarcastic tone. '... I didn't ? ' she asked a question not knowing if it was for me or for herself. ' Haah Whatever, I asked for a system which will show me my summary and progress of myself, why does it have the name of ' Incarnation System', does it have some meaning ? or...' I asked with my same indifferent tone. ' I am going
Within the confines of a fortified city, their stands tall walls from all directions which were not tall enough to compare that of the walls protecting the city but luxurious enough to standout even from the gates of the fortified city.Within this were a group of constructions but what will catch anyone's and everyone's attention will be the mansion, Mansion might not make the justice for what seemed to be a small palace if someone paid enough attention.Within this palace into a certain room which had a huge chandelier and filled with countless shelf filled with books, it was easily recognisable at first glance that this was a library and a library big enough to accommodate two above average couple rooms and if that wasn't enough, it had a second floor which seemed to be made by adding rooms of the floor above.This whole place will be as silent as grave if not for one person sitting on one of the tables arranged to read while resting, this person seemed more
