Chapter 94: The Sudden Arrival
Half an hour passed after Elize, Athena, the others, and I had reached Elize’s territory. The other women and I were now sitting inside Elize’s wooden house. For some reason, various fresh fruits that had previously been absent from the table began to appear inside the living room.
This was the first time I had witnessed Elize taking the initiative to bring various fruits to the table in the living room. However, during the half year I trained with Elize, she had never once arranged the living room inside her residence so aesthetically.
After witnessing Elize’s attitude towards her master’s arrival, I knew that Elize truly respected her master, much more than when she met Lilith. For me, as a man, the attitude shown by Elize when facing Lilith was no different from that of a little girl staring at a lion.
It was the most exciting sight I had ever witnessed in my entire life. After all, a cold woman like Elize managing to show a panicked expression was the rarest thing I had ever come across.
Even when Elize was fighting against the Dragon Emperor’s guards, she didn’t show any hesitation or fear at all. On the contrary, Elize’s expression when facing the Dragon Emperor’s guards was filled with endless enthusiasm.
But I was also someone who enjoyed great battles as much as Elize did. Because I was Elize’s only disciple, I inherited every desire from Elize to face opponents who were much stronger than I was.
Both Elize and I had our own characteristics when facing our opponents. However, I completely ignored Elize’s actions when she tried to fight against dozens of Dragon Emperor-stage dragons. From the start, Elize’s strength had been among the greatest, even before she fully broke through to the Dragon Emperor stage.
"Do you need help from me? I will help you as your disciple."
"Cien... No. Liz and I are enough to tidy up every speck of dust in the living room. Don’t worry. This will only take half a minute, and after that... Of course, everything will be cleaned immediately!"
Fyush!—
The magical power of the Water Element and the magical power of the Fire Element began to collide with each other. The two opposing forces began endlessly cleansing and counteracting one another. After more than fifteen seconds, the magical power of the Wind Element involuntarily swept through Elize’s residence.
Liz’s two hands were now slightly raised upward as she tried to spread her gravitational power throughout the room in Elize’s residence. Even when the incredibly powerful Wind Element magic of Elize struck everything inside her residence, not a single item in the room was damaged because of it.
With Liz’s gravitational power preventing every object in her master’s residence from falling, she managed to stop the fragile objects in the room from being destroyed. On the other hand, Liz’s hair, which had previously been long, clean, and purple, unexpectedly became messy because of Elize’s Wind Element.
"Sorry, Liz. But good job on completing your task perfectly."
Liz’s current situation was not entirely good. Having experienced the full force of her master’s overwhelming magical power, Liz had now completely reached her limits. Even if Liz could manage to move from her place, she couldn’t fully move her body after activating the power of Gravity Manipulation.
A being like Liz, who had managed to learn the ability of Gravity Manipulation, was the rarest thing to find in the world. As an eagle that Elize had accidentally picked up in the past, Liz was Elize’s only mount with great strength and talent.
"Can that be considered a side effect of activating the power of Gravity Manipulation? It seems that your mount still hasn’t fully mastered the power she possesses."
Listening to Athena’s words about Liz’s weaknesses couldn’t stop Elize from sighing. Almost all the time, all Liz did was sleep and hibernate. Therefore, Liz’s mastery of magic was among the lowest compared to living beings in general.
"Hmph. Of course. All this girl does is laze around and never even bothers to try mastering any of her skills. That’s also the reason why I’m so harsh on Liz."
Every explanation given by Elize made sense in Athena’s eyes. As a friend of Elize who had known her for a long time, Athena knew that Liz was a monster who rarely practiced any of her magic.
From the perspective of Liz, who was both a monster and a mount, she considered her master to be the only person who would protect her throughout her life. Therefore, Liz didn’t care at all about her magical abilities, which were far inferior to those of others.
"Ha ha... But there’s no problem for a girl like Liz. No matter what happens, you as her master will always look after her, right?"
For some reason, Elize’s gaze once again shifted toward the figure of her mount, who had now collapsed where she stood. Various memories of Elize and Liz together in the past came flooding back into her mind. But another side of Elize felt disappointed with the lazy attitude Liz had shown after becoming her personal mount.
"No one knows what will happen in the future. Even if I can look after that girl for now, I’m afraid she will lose her life midway because of her weak strength."
At first, both Elize and Athena showed no expression on their faces regarding Liz’s low strength. Suddenly, the sound of clapping came from behind Elize and the others. The figures of Rossweisse and Lilith could be seen walking into the living room with calm expressions.
"Ah... Master! Greetings, Master Rossweisse. I have been waiting for your arrival for a long time!"
A slight grin appeared on Rossweisse’s beautiful and mature face. Rossweisse’s pupils, which resembled the morning mist, endlessly stared at the figures of the women in the room, along with the figure of a man. For some reason, no dragon aura could be felt from within the man’s body.
’Very strange. I clearly witnessed this child activating the true form of the True Dragon race. It was a transformation that could only be achieved by those with the purest blood of the True Dragon race. But this child doesn’t have the blood of a dragon flowing through his veins...’ Various questions began popping up in Rossweisse’s mind. In Rossweisse’s entire life, this was the first time she had witnessed a human possessing a complete transformation like that of the True Dragon race.
Since ancient times, there had not been a single being in the entire world capable of transforming into the form of another species unless they were born with the blood of that species. But the situation Lucien was currently experiencing was very different from what Rossweisse had expected. However, 100% of the blood in Lucien’s body belonged purely to the bloodline of the Human race.
