Shuttling Between the Two Worlds

Chapter 56: Hunt [1]



In the morning, Lugh came back from his trip to the Zerg World.

"Let's see.. I got 3 of them for now.."

What Lugh meant just now is the 3 techniques that he specially got for Aria. Due to this, he spent his 4 hours of rest searching for them. At first, he tried finding some from his technique, but to no avail.

What he's searching for is the Techniques created for the Pure-Blooded Dragons. It's also one of the first products born from the fusion of various civilizations. As to why he's doing that and not give her a Heaven's Force technique..

Lugh found this out when they got into this planet. It seems that only Aura and Magic was present in the Planets of the Magic System. There's no Qi at all!

Back in Aquamarine, he found out that it contains all 3 of the energies needed for the cultivation of Heaven's Force, so he thought that all planets were like this. It seems that Planet Aquamarine is special..

"I hope that she'll like it.."

Due to Aria's extremely pure bloodline even though she's only considered a halfling, Lugh thought that ordinary techniques wouldn't fit her, so he tried searching for the Pure-Blooded Dragons' cultivation method. He then later confirmed it as his Master told him about the characteristics of the Pure-Blooded Dragons..

"Pure-Blooded Dragons rely on their bloodline to reach their latent potential. What do you mean by that?"

"Master, don't they also use the Fusion Techniques to cultivate?"

The Dragons of this world uses the fusion techniques just so they could become stronger. They threw away the last bit of their old-fashioned beliefs that they had after their Dragon King got killed during battle.

To them, the Dragons' Might should stay alive, not their pride.

"You're right, my disciple. It's just that they use a special version of the fusion techniques to cultivate, thus they have a faster growth compared to other races."

It seems that the Dragons rely on their bloodline to reach their peak latent potential. now that they cultivate too, its as if they got a booster. Most of them regretted not doing so earlier, since most dragons relied on eating strong magical beasts and their natural growth to get stronger. They had this belief that they don't need to rely on other races' technique to grow stronger.

"Wait. Are you doing this for your girlfriend?"

Lugh's Master said so with a smirk. Now matured, Lugh wasn't flustered like before and answered him directly.

"Yes, Master."

"Youth.. When will I experience.."

His Master murmured something, as if thinking of someone.

"Master?"

"Nothing. Since you're doing this for your girlfriend, I'll let you in to my study. It's all up to her if she comprehends the ones stored there."

"Thank you Master!"

In fact, the one-time defensive treasure that he got before is for Aria. Since he won't die, he wouldn't need those. Only Aria would, because she doesn't have the cheat that Lugh has.

"This is 'just' a study?"

When Lugh entered his study, he was shocked. It's just a study, yes, but why does it look like a huge library?! At this point, it won't be a exaggeration to call this a Library.

As he thought of what he had gone through in that huge library, Lugh sighed. It was truly too big. His Master told him that it was the result of him and the heavenly Sovereign's work during their lifetime. They killed many enemies, in which their spatial storage would also contain books. They also explored many ruins, thus the accumulation.

They accumulated this for 500 years. After the Heavenly Sovereign died, he continued their work up until now.

"Thankfully, I found these 3.."

Lugh hand't found just those three, as he had found a total of 30 books in regards to Dragon Techniques. It's just that they're too high-levelled for her at the moment. For now, Lugh would only give a Gold Ranked Cultivation Technique, a Gold-Ranked Sword Technique, and a Gold-Ranked Movement Technique.

[Blood Purification Dragon Fusion Art-Version 4.5 (Gold)]

-A Cultivation method created for the Dragons during the initial stages of the Fusion. It utilizes a Magic-Aura Cultivation along with a Dragon Art that could boost the growth of one's bloodline.

[Blood Ignition Sword Art (Gold)]

-A Draconian Sword Art created to utilize the Dragons' Bloodline Power and use them on a Sword.

-A Sword Technique that could enhance the damage of each strike as you add your Bloodline Power.

[Cloud Dragon Illusion Art (Gold)]

-A Draconian Art derived from the Cloud Dragon's innate trait.

-Allows the user to create clones which is indistinguishable from the real. They'll have a certain combat power' but it won't be comparable to the main body.

The reason why he chose these three is because he had seen her fight back then. She already has a Burst-type Attack and a footwork technique. These 3 should be able to make up for her deficiency. Of course, she would have to learn them first, though he is confident that she'll be able to learn them in half a month.

That is Lugh's own approximation in regards to those people who have EX+ Rank latent potential. There would be some exceptions, but it should go like this.

"How should I give her these?"

He thought so as he prepared himself to meet her.

***

Knock! Knock!

"Aria."

"Lugh?"

"I'm coming in. Is that alright?"

"W-wait for a while."

"Alright."

Since this isn't some anime where a guy opens the door to a room without even telling her, such cliche thing didn't happen.

"You can come in now."

Lugh twisted the knob and opened the door. As he opened the door, he saw that the room looked identical to his room. It's just an inn after all. He have to wait until they go back before he could see her personal room.

"Morning."

"Good morning, Lugh."

Yesterday, they bought not only dresses, but also her normal clothes. Thanks to that, she was finally able to part with her Armor for a while and wear normal clothes.

"Sit here."

She patted besides her, which is the bed. She's also sitting right there right now.

Even though he's quite embarrassed, he didn't show it. His 18 years of training is no joke.

"I'll just sit here in the chair."

As an inn that costs 3 Silver Coins (2 Rooms made it 6), not only does it has a good bed. It also has a table and chair, along with some utensils that one could use.

"No, that won't work. Sit here."

She seems to be.. demanding something? This was the first time that Lugh had encountered this, thus he had no choice but to do as Aria says.

"Here.."

He gave the 3 books that contained the techniques that he prepared earlier. Seeing this, Aria is bewildered.

"What's this?"

"Techniques."

"Techniques?"

"Yea, I spent much time to get those."

Aria skimmed through the <Cloud Dragon Illusion Art>. She then realized that it is made for the Dragons and Halflings to use.

After knowing that he spent much time just for them, she accepted them. She doesn't want to waste his efforts after all.

"Thank you."

"No need. Just treat it as a gift. You're already my girlfriend, y'know?"

"But.. I'm always on the receiving end. I want to make it up to you."

"Don't say that.. As a couple, we don't need to have that equivalent exchange. I want you to get stronger so that you won't be in danger. You can consider that as the payment."

"Lugh.."

The two became silent for a while. It was not until Lugh spoke did he break the silence.

"Oh yeah, I will be going out today."

"Where are you going?"

"Hunt some Magical Beasts."

Lugh had this thought since he arrived at this planet. In fact, he had long wanted to gain EXP, if not for the fact that he needed to settle some things.

Knowing Lugh's character thanks to the time that they had spent during the infiltration,she knew that he wouldn't make any rash decisions. Thus, she only said some of her worries.

"Don't put yourself in huge danger, okay?"

"Alright. I won't die that easily.."

With his more than 2M EXP, he has enough for revival. That's why he dared to behave like this.

"For the meantime, just stay in your room. This planet is too dangerous. You can comprehend the 3 techniques that I gave in the meantime."

"Un."

"Then, see you later."

After he said that, he left the room. Not long after, Aria had this determined face that she didn't have for a long time.

"I should get stronger so that he won't worry for me.. Master?"

"Hm?"

From the depths of his mind, a female voice resounded.

"Can you help me with this?"

"Techniques? Let's see.."

She began to examine the techniques with the help of Aria. After finishing all 3, she was shocked. She had reached the conclusion that these techniques couldn't be developed under certain circumstances.

"A Technique created for the Pure-Blooded Dragon, not for the halflings? What is this? But these three.. It seems that they're made for general use."

Meaning, its for the use of the common Pure-Blooded Dragon populace. This point confused her. Only halflings cultivate, so why is there one made for the Pure-Blooded Dragons? This is so confusing..

"Where did you get this?"

"Someone gave this to me."

Due to the fact that she's sleeping most of the time, she wasn't able to see who gave the techniques to her.

"If the person who gave you these can be trusted.. You can practice them. I'll help you out too."

"Master, he can be trusted."

"It seems that you know who gave you that?"

"He's my lover.."

"Lover? Since when?!"

She only slept for a while, yet many things had passed. When Aria got injured back then, her Master slept due to Aria being exhausted. That's also why she's not there during the time period of Lugh and Aria officially becoming lovers.

"I need to let my main body know.."

"Master?"

"No, nothing. Let's start."

With that said, she began teaching Aria the fundamental points of the 3 techniques.
