Chapter 178: Chapter 178: Faye’s Anger, Soul Shock!
“No way! I’ve grown a lot and I’m already over 30 levels! I can help my master!” Faye said, her golden eyes wide and her face full of anger as she looked at Nellie.
For Faye, the most important thing, besides eating all kinds of high-tier materials, was to get stronger and help Aiden.
She had finally leveled up a lot and even learned a new Mythic Rank skill. But this strange girl with golden hair just said she wasn’t useful in battle!
What did that even mean? She had been working hard to eat and get stronger, right?
Faye flapped her wings and flew right above Nellie’s head. Then she said, “Faye isn’t weak! Faye is really useful!”
Nellie was surprised and thought she must have heard wrong.
According to the information, this Pure-blood Dragon Clan should have just hatched, right?
But she was already over 30 levels?
How did Aiden do that?
This was a Mythic Rank Pure-blood Dragon Clan. Each level required a huge amount of experience.
Gareth watched Faye from the side. His eyes widened. He had never checked Faye’s stats before.
There was no need to. Raising a Pure-blood Dragon Clan takes a lot of time and resources.
A newly hatched dragon might have big potential, but it wasn’t strong yet.
But he never expected that Aiden could raise the level of this Pure-blood Dragon Clan so fast in such a short time.
He couldn’t help but blink, then used his Eye Technique to check Faye’s stats.
Just one look, and Gareth stood frozen. He said in surprise,
“How is this possible?”
“Why are the four stats of this Pure-blood Dragon Clan so high?”
“It doesn’t make sense. Even if she reached over 30 levels, her stats shouldn’t be this high in so little time.”
From what he knew about dragons, real strong dragons either spent a long time training and improving their stats, or they ate rare materials to boost them.
A 30+ level Pure-blood Dragon Clan shouldn’t have stats as high as Faye.
“Did you feed her a lot of high-tier materials?” Gareth asked Aiden.
To raise a dragon to this level would take so many resources, even if he sold all his gear, he couldn’t afford it.
Aiden nodded slowly and said, “Not that much. Faye doesn’t eat a lot every day. Sometimes I just let her eat as much as she can, so I don’t waste materials.”
“Okay, I now know everyone’s basic stats. You should start making a training plan. We have enough power to work together.”
Since Aiden was the team leader, it was his job to take charge.
But Nellie suddenly said, “Wait.”
She took a deep breath, then said, “If it’s possible, could your pet show her power?”
“It’s just so we can get a better idea of her strength. That way, we can make better decisions in battle.”
When she said that, she looked down at the floor.
Gareth sighed silently beside her. He knew Nellie better than anyone. What she said wasn’t what she really meant.
This girl wanted to know just how strong Aiden’s pet really was.
“Fine. A little shock won’t hurt Nellie. At least it’ll show her she’s not strong enough yet. She still has a long way to go.”
“But why is Aiden so strong? He’s just a Magic Apprentice.”
“Did something change in the past few years? Are Magic Apprentices now a really powerful class?” Gareth thought to himself. He felt really confused.
He looked at Aiden, trying to find something different about him.
Besides being good-looking, there was something special about Aiden’s aura. It stood out.
Other than that, Aiden didn’t seem very special.
Soon, Gareth heard Aiden speak to Nellie.
“You’re right. Faye’s skills are pretty special. They can hit enemy souls and cause dizziness or other bad effects.”
“You should get used to it, so you can take advantage of it in real fights.”
Then Aiden turned and softly called Faye.
Faye immediately flapped her wings and flew up to the top of the training area.
She ignored everyone else and only looked at Nellie.
“Watch out! I’m attacking now!”
In a flash, Faye opened her mouth wide and used her Mythic Rank skill — Soul Shock!
Boom!
An invisible wave shot out from her mouth and flew toward Nellie and the others in a heartbeat.
Nellie felt like her head had been hit by a big hammer.
Her head hurt a lot, and she couldn’t see anything. She instantly went into a dizzy state.
It took 0.8 seconds before she came back to her senses.
Nellie took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and looked at Aiden.
“Why didn’t you use your pet when we fought?” Nellie’s voice shook a little, and her muscles were tight.
Aiden looked at her in surprise.
Jade and Vespera were still dizzy and confused, but Nellie had already gone back to normal.
It made sense that either her soul was stronger than most, or she had some kind of item or gear that protected her from soul attacks.
As for Nellie’s question, Aiden didn’t think too much about it. He just answered, “I didn’t need Faye. I was just testing my own strength.”
After saying that, he looked at the others.
Victor was fine, no real effect. Probably because of his Fearless Warrior class.
Aiden looked at Vespera and the others. When they came to, their faces showed clear shock. So he knew they had never been hit by a soul skill before.
And when Faye started attacking, Jordan, Cici, and Vespera didn’t react at all.
Only Jade and Victor tried to move a little.
Even if they were just testing Faye’s skill, Jordan, Cici, and Vespera shouldn’t have acted like that.
Aiden had been in a lot of fights. He knew that real fighters used their body’s instinct to dodge or defend. In real battles, things happened too fast for thinking.
If those three were experienced, they would have reacted the same way as Victor in that moment.
He frowned and said, “You guys practice on your own first. I’ll go make a plan.”
Then he left with Faye.
Jade watched Aiden walk away and took a deep breath.
Faye’s soul attack had shocked her a lot.
A 1.5-second dizzy spell could mean death in a real fight. She might already be dead now.
As a Divine-Eyed Swordsman, she could predict an enemy’s move two seconds in advance. But in this case, she had no idea what was coming.
She couldn’t dodge Faye’s skill unless she stopped it before it started.
But the skill was too fast. She didn’t have time to react.
“I guess I really can’t beat Aiden,” she said to herself.
“To be safe, I need to go up at least 10 levels. That way, my Divine Eyes will be stronger, and I can see further ahead. Then I might have a chance to fight Aiden.”
She took a deep breath and looked at Victor, who was standing nearby.
His class could block Faye’s skill. As long as he wasn’t scared or nervous, he wouldn’t get controlled.
“But what if he actually fights Aiden?” she thought. Faye had just attacked, and Aiden had stood still the whole time.
Victor noticed her looking at him and smiled.
“Get a life,” Jade said, rolling her eyes, and started training.
Victor rubbed his head and muttered, “I can block Aiden’s pet’s skill. That means I have a better chance if I ever fight him.”
“Right. I need to train too. I have to get stronger fast.”
Soon, only Jordan, Cici, Vespera, and Nellie were left.
“You were right. I probably wouldn’t last ten seconds,” Jordan sighed, shaking his head as he walked to the corner of the training area.
Cici followed.
Vespera, on the other hand, looked determined. She couldn’t be too far behind Aiden, or she’d never catch up.
Soon, everyone scattered, leaving only Nellie standing in place, head down, fists clenched.
She felt bad, especially after seeing how strong Faye was.
Gareth finally spoke up to comfort her. “You’re a Mythic Rank Reclasser. Every level up makes you much stronger. When you get higher, Aiden won’t be a problem anymore.”
Nellie kept her head down and asked slowly, “Uncle Gareth, if I use a skill with big side effects, could I beat Aiden?”
