Reborn as the Dragon King's Son-In-Law

Chapter 114: Talentless?

"It seems you are starting to realize the true function of the reason why I let you wear those special clothes."

"Master, you are very wise. I can now finally feel the benefits after training under you for the past week. Not only has my physique improved, but I also feel that all my attributes have improved massively."

"Heh~. That’s a privilege that we get from being born as humans. With the adaptation abilities that humans have, we will be able to develop and become much stronger beyond the limits of our actual abilities."

At first, I regretted making Rossweisse my master, but now I feel an extraordinary sense of happiness because I chose Rossweisse as my master. However, Elize was a different dragon from her own master, who came from the Human race.

Because Rossweisse has human origins just like me, she has a lot of knowledge about the privileges that humans have. For some reason, a large part of Rossweisse was surprised by the progress her disciple had achieved.

In just one week, her disciple managed to increase his strength far beyond Rossweisse’s expectations. Among all of Rossweisse’s disciples, only Lucien was able to exceed Rossweisse’s expectations. Therefore, Rossweisse relentlessly tried her best to maintain a satisfied expression while watching the progress of her disciple.

"Ah. I had expected that since I first started training under Lize. I have now decided to believe in my theory, which can allow me to increase my strength several times over."

Rossweisse’s eyebrows involuntarily twitched after she listened to the explanation Lucien gave about the natural talents of humans. In fact, Lucien did not know the privileges of being born as a human at all. But after meeting Rossweisse, Lucien finally realized that being human could increase his strength much more than that of other living beings.

Several thoughts running through Rossweisse’s head at that moment made her endlessly think about the stupidity of her disciple. Not all of Lucien’s knowledge enabled him to know the true strengths of every species throughout the world. However, both humans and other living beings throughout the world have the privilege of being able to survive in this world.

The Elf race is one example that deserves to be called a unique race because it possesses an abundant amount of mana. They already have top-level magical talent from the moment they are born into the world. For that reason, only the Elf race can compete with the Dragon race in terms of magical power through the immense amount of mana they possess.

But Tifa and Tina are two High Elves who inherited the bloodline of noble families. Moreover, Tifa and Tina did not originate from low-class elves. On the contrary, they are among the elves who possess the purest bloodline from their ancient ancestors.

"I don’t know whether you are stupid or not, but you have done enough to prove that you are an extraordinarily strong human being. You have survived this far because of your will to survive in this world."

Every word Rossweisse said was true in Lucien’s eyes. There was not a single day when Lucien could remain calm, even when he was in the castle. From the start, not every citizen of the Dragon Realm was as kind to humans as Lucien had hoped.

Luckily, every citizen of the Dragonia Kingdom had completely accepted Lucien as one of them. For now, the Dragonia Kingdom was the only kingdom that considered Lucien equal to all of them.

One of the reasons why Lucien was able to survive in the Dragon Realm was because of the support Lilith had given him over the past two years. Speaking of which, the time that had passed since I first set foot in the Dragon Realm had now reached more than two years. Half a year ago was when I reached the age of 22.

After I trained under Elize for half a year, I had now lived in the Dragon Realm for two years. But it’s not a big problem for me at all. Instead, I relentlessly tried my best to forget the time that was endlessly passing by.

Whatever it is, the life I am currently living has not experienced any significant changes at all. That alone is enough to show that I still have the same traits as when I first set foot in the Dragon Realm. My only weakness so far is not being able to kill a human who belongs to the same race as me.

This is the rule that every country implemented in my previous life. Killing fellow humans is disgusting and strictly prohibited. Therefore, up to now, I have absolutely no intention of doing anything cruel other than acting naive and pretending not to know what is happening.

"Just continue with your training. I will go to see those women. I also can’t ignore them just because you are my personal disciple."

"I understand. I will go back to training my physique for now. Good luck, Master."

Time began to pass after Rossweisse gave her guidance to Athena and Elize. As for Athena herself, she didn’t experience any improvement at all apart from her physical strength. However, Athena’s strength was much different from Rossweisse’s.

Apart from Elize, Athena was the only one who couldn’t understand every explanation Rossweisse gave about her theory on developing magical power. From the start, Athena’s magical power came entirely from Lilith. For some reason, Rossweisse simply did not have the knowledge to help improve Athena’s magical power, which she had directly inherited from Lilith.

"Sorry, because I couldn’t understand anything about the training you gave us. It seems like I don’t have a talent like Lize and the others."

A sigh began to escape from Rossweisse’s mouth. There was no disappointed expression visible on Rossweisse’s face, only a helpless one. It wasn’t because Athena lacked talent at all. On the contrary, Athena was a woman born with unique talents far different from Elize and the other young dragons.

She explained, "It’s not your fault at all. It’s all because you’re so talented that you can’t understand any of my teachings. You’re different. I think you’d better go home and meet your mother again for guidance."

The doubtful look on Athena’s face gave Elize a feeling of worry. As a good friend of Athena, Elize realized that her friend respected Lilith as the strongest being.

Asking Lilith for guidance was no different from lowering her image in front of her mother. Therefore, Athena felt hesitant when she listened to Rossweisse’s suggestion that she go ask Lilith for guidance.
