Chapter 110: Testing Grayfia''s Spirit Skill
--- Chapter 110 ---
After teaching Ophis some moves and warning her not to wave Yeoui''s copy recklessly, Huo Yuhao stretched his body once more and cooled down his body.
"You''re having fun without me?" Scathach''s purple hair suddenly hangs beside him. A refreshing beverage wrapped in a ss bottle touched his cheek, making him smile a little.
Huo Yuhao grabbed the drink and replied, "Well, after fighting you a week ago, I''m just warming up the rusty gear. Nothing special."
"Thanks for the drink, though."
"Nothing fun, huh?" Scathachmented back.
She moved her gaze to Ophis on the training ground, watching the ouroboros dragon with an impressed look. At first nce, Scathach could see that Ophis is aplete amateur when handling a weapon like a bo staff. Her movement is also awkward, but considering her teeny build, that''s quite normal.
Of course, what made Scathach surprised isn''t that.
"Copying one''s movements isn''t easy."
"She copied everyst bit of your movement but added "Clumsy." charm on those deadly attacks without losing the basic stance."
Scathach smiled curiously and added, "Interesting. It''s like a child ying with a stick, but one strike was enough to kill a veteran fighter off guard into meat paste."
Yes, Ophis swung Yeoui''s copy with a simr movement to Huo Yuhao, and Scathach could see that well. And how cluelessly waving her hand in an unfixed pattern, Ophis unknowingly bes a walking disaster if no one controls her.
"You applied Restriction Runes on her?" Scathach asked, to which Huo Yuhao responded with a nod.
"Heh, then she would be a worth-teaching candidate."
"I''ll take over from now on. Go y with your maids and little angel."
"Be gentle." Huo Yuhao warned them because the training field couldn''t withstand a fight between God yer and the Ouroboros Dragon. He could sense Scathach''s amusement, hoping she doesn''t injure herself by unsealing her power.
Even though Scathach''s power is third in the Dragon Nest, her body hasn''t recovered to the top condition after their fight in the pocket dimension a week ago. After all, Scathach used a lot of energy to revive herself.
Huo Yuhao casually walked out of the training ground and looked at the blue morning sky. "Restore Ophis''s Power and World Travelling Ticket''s Pieces." He shook his head because the fucking g wasing out of nowhere.
"Yuhao-sama?"
Grayfia suddenly teleported herself to Huo Yuhao, bringing a clean towel for him. "Why are you standing alone like that?" She asked curiously.
"Just thinking about something. Is that for me?" Huo Yuhao returned while looking at the towel.
Grayfia nodded and handed the towel to him, "Ying''er said you are training."
"You''re such a good maid, Grayfia." Huo Yuhao praised her for being so thoughtful. He wrapped the towel around his neck and told her to follow him. Unknown to Huo Yuhao, simple praise was enough to make the silver-haired maid happy.
Grayfia maintained her stone-cold expression, but she rolled around and punched her hands in the excitement in her head.
''Yuhao-sama is praising me~!''
''Yuhao-sama is praising me~!''
''Yuhao-sama is praising me~!!!''
[Grayfia Lucifuge''s Loyalty has increased]
"Oh yeah, how is your progress?" Huo Yuhao suddenly asked.
Grayfia was stunned for a moment and answered nervously, "W-Well, I''m doing fine on my cultivation."
"
Huo Yuhao sighed and said, "Be honest with me, Grayfia. Ask me if you need help because your condition is special, even in Douluo Dalu''s Universe. I''m sure having twin martial souls makes you confused about what you should develop first, no?"
[Name: Grayfia Lucifuge]
[Age: 203 years old]
[Potential: SSS Rank]
[Rmended Paths: Battle Maid, Time-Space Gunslinger, True Devil Queen, Huo Yuhao''s Concubine]
Huo Yuhao could only smile when reading Grayfia''s rmended paths and look at the silver-haired maid with some expectation. With her base power equal to Hyper Douluo, she could grow stronger beyond the standard stage of Douluo Dalu''s Universe.
...
...
In a park, Huo Yuhao told Grayfia to show her overall progress after one week of Martial Soul Awakening. He sat on a wooden bench and watched the silver-haired devil summon a pair of handguns with one red spirit ring floating around her waist.
''I did give her some rune stone with a simr attribute, but to think she was absorbing the essence and aging her 99.690 years old spirit ring is surprising.'' Huo Yuhao thought while observing Grayfia''s spirit ring.
In most scenarios, Spirit Masters couldn''t even age their spirit rings, but only some people were lucky enough to get theirs reced with new ones in God Trials. With the Self-Evolving Dungeon, Advalon, Huo Yuhao bypassed this rule because the monster spawned within the dungeons works as a farmable essence/experience to age one''s spirit energy.
Even though people could age their spirit rings with rune stones that hold Dungeon Monster''s essence, it is inefficientpared to farming/grinding the existing monster in the dungeon. Not to mention aging was limited by the Spirit Master''s aptitude and the rune stone''s quality.
"Even the most genius student in the Dragon Nest Academy could only absorb 80% of the essence, which is understandable because the essence inside the rune stone couldn''t stay for too long after being released back."
"Well, Ying''er is an exception."
"But you''re amazing, Grayfia." Huo Yuhao opened Grayfia''s status and checked her spirit ring''s description.
[Name: Propator]
[1st Spirit Ring: Temporal Devil Eagle]
[Name: Temporal Devil Hawk]
[Type: Spirit Ring]
[Age: 196.690 years old]
[Description: Temporal Devil Eagle is the only breed between Temporal Eagle and Devil Hawk, having devilish nature and powerful time attributes from Temporal Eagle. It''s a rare spirit beast that could only appear once in Decamillennium]
[Spirit Skills: Time Maniption, Temporal Eyes]
Since Time Maniption isn''t a new skill to Huo Yuhao because he and Ke from the White room possessed it too, he focused on Temporal Eyes more.
[Temporal Eyes]
[A spirit skill to see time passage, allowing the user to glimpse into distant past, present, and possible future]
"Damn, but I haven''t seen its full potential." Huo Yuhao covered his mouth in awe, making the maid confused.
He turned around with his back facing Grayfia and said, "Grayfia, can you use your Temporal Eyes?"
"Eh?" Grayfia was shocked but nodded anyway. Her eyes glowed with a silverish glow and released a horrible ck hue.
Huo Yuhao smiled and added, "I''ll test the limit of your ability, Grayfia. I wanted to see how much you could see into the future."
"For the next hour, You''ll guess words that were going toe from my mouth. Are you ready?"
"I''m ready, Yuhao-sama!" Grayfia answered eagerly.
"Then, let''s do this..." Huo Yuhao closed his eyes and used Observation Haki. It is different between seeing the future and the possible future because Grayfia''s spirit skill allows her to witness the "various." possible results.
...
...
One hourter, Grayfia breathed heavily and sat on the bench beside Huo Yuhao with a tired expression.
"After testing, we know your limit is 5 minutes into the future, and when a variable happened, you could predict at least ten oues. Mm, this spirit skill is such a blessing for you."
"Good job, Fia." Huo Yuhao said while patting her head.
"Fia..?" Grayfia was still exhausted, so her voice sounded rougher or huskier. It makes her sexier for some reason, especially with those sweats glistening from her forehead to her neck and cleavage.
Ehem!
Huo Yuhao faked a cough and continued, "It''s a nickname. I won''t call you Fia if you don''t like it."
Grayfia''s eyes widened when hearing that, having a smile blooming on her beautiful face. "I like it... I like it, Huo Yuhao-sama! Please call me Fia from now on." She excitedly grabbed his hand and squished it between her breasts.
Her face is literally one inch away from Huo Yuhao''s, making their position somewhat awkward. After all, she sat on Huo Yuhao''sp like a cowgirl.
''Yuhao, are you sure you want to conquer this world, not thesedies'' hearts?'' Tian Meng suddenly questioned with a suspicious look on her face. Bing Di and Eluxia didn''t say anything but had the same expression as the Sky Dream Ice Worm.
Huo Yuhao shook his head and wryly responded, ''It''s not like that. Do you think I''m a pervert who only thinks about catching women left and right?''
''YES.'' 3x.
"..." Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao-sama?" Grayfia''s soft breath touch his neck.
Huo Yuhao ignored his contracted souls and answered, "Yes, Fia?"
Grayfia blushed hard and said, "C-Can I..."
"Can I cook for you?"
Huo Yuhao was expecting something more and felt disappointed when hearing her request, but this was more than enough with their current rtionship.
"Sure, I have so many times on my side." Huo Yuhaoughed in amusement.
"I hope you can satisfy me, Fia."
Grayfia doesn''t catch the meaning behind Huo Yuhao''s words because she is exhausted. Still, her spirit burned like a fiery sun.
"Mm, leave it to me, Yuhao-sama~!"
