Chapter 197 - Fat Chance!
[What's wrong?] Girsha perch on her shoulder.
[My eyes twitching….] Lory rubbed her eyes.
[Isn't in Harland that mean bad luck?] Girsha teased her.
[Depend, at Halbourne it means good luck] Lory perfunctory said.
In the morning Lory and Girsha spend there time in the garden after a small walk she sit on the stone bench near the pond while Girsha land on the stone bench smoothly.
[How is you're power?] he asked.
[My power return almost forty percent so is not bad but not good either] Lory said in a perfunctory manner.
[At least you will provide enough resistance in an emergency situation] Girsha sigh heavily.
[Come on, with my experience in combat combined with Zhao Li Xin amulet and spatial rings I don't think I wouldn't be easy to be killed] Lory grinned playfully, she didn't worry too much besides living dangerously is normal for her.
[Hump, if you fight with the master-level cultivator you definitely would lose" Girsha warn his reckless princess.
[Only if I fight fairly…] Lory grinned mischievously, she than look left and right [Are they watching us?] Lory mean is the shadow guard who protecting her secretly.
[No, maybe because the protective array that boy put around your living quarter] Girsha is sensitivity increased tremendously just like how Lory's power return a little bit and so is Girsha but not like her Girsha power return almost sixty percent his power is enough to kill a divined beast.
[That's convenient….] Lory takes out the red dagger from her arms and another one from her calf than she put down the twin red dagger on the bench, it's the dagger she was chosen by herself.
She never told him clearly the reason she chose these daggers perhaps because at that time she thought is not important.
The reason she needs to have an affinity with her weapon because she wants to put a spell on it, without affinity she can put anything on the weapon although she can use it normally.
This technique called 'Weapon enhancement' it might sound great but it's a complicated and delicate technique that she does not have great talent with it, compare to her genius brother Lucas her talent is only so-so even compare to Fredhard and Clift she's no better then them.
The problem is where the spell you put is contradicted each other just imagine you want to make you're weapon strong then you put a spell to make it dense so it won't break easily but than you want to make you're weapon wove swiftly so you adding a spell to increase the weapon speed sadly dense and speed is not a good match, dense spell would make the weapon thicker although it does make the weapon more powerful but also make the weapon heavier so adding speed spell is had no used.
Rather than dense it's better to used sharp spell instead, so the more spell you add the complicated it becomes there also other problem with the weapon basic quality, the better the quality the better for the weapon to absorbed more than one spell if the quality of the weapon material is bad the weapon would explode when you put too much spell on it.
[What would you do with it?] Girsha worry a little bit because he witnesses she blew up a lot of weapons when she was practice this technique.
[Why you looking at me like that? I won't put too much spell on it] she feel offended by his lack of trust but Girsha not believed her the bird takes a few steps back from her.
Lory's mouth twitches but she ignore him she needs to get focus or she might blow up this fined daggers, Its one of Zhao Li Xin thoughtful gift for her so she can't let it go to waste.
Lory close her eyes the air around her suddenly changed when she opens her eyes her iris turns purple than she raised her hand above the two daggers [Speed..] she said and a purple rune emerged on the dagger surface for a second before it disappeared, the Lory continue adding a sharp spell and magnetic spell.
After she finished her iris turns black again than she smiles smugly at Girsha [Told you I can do it!] she puffed her chest proudly but secretly she also nervous when she put the third spell she didn't know how much it can absorb the spell since she didn't know the material of the weapon it is a world without magic after all.
[Magnetic spell huh, interesting….] Girsha quite satisfied with his Princess [Where do you learn this?]
[Clift, I saw one of his weapons have this spell and he taught me when I asked him] She missed that quiet, strict but pushover boy. In the past the four of them grow up together because they have the same-aged they almost inseparable, Lory is the mischievous one, Lucas is the lazy one, Jay is the naughty one and Clift is the worrywart one.
The reason why Clift keep breaking the rule although he is the 'By the book' kinda guy because he is a worrywart, he can't let Lucas and Lory run around just the two of them and he can't trust Jay either since that gut is more like bad influence for them so he had no choice but to follow them and that's how he ends up in detention together with the royal twins a few times.
Lory giggles whenever she remember her naughty past, she is a quite handful and she realizes she also quite spoiled when she was young although they did not spoil her as Zhao Li Xin does but they all always give in with her whim even Lucas, most of the times they break the rules is mostly her ideas but whenever they got caught none of them blame her.
[Let's test it!] Lory said excitedly.
Lory raised her hand higher and suddenly the two daggers stand on it's tip then slowly the dagger swirl following Lory's hand then suddenly she flipping her hand and the daggers floating above her hands, she feel satisfied then she raised another hand of her and the two daggers separated the daggers now floating each on her hands.
Lory swings her hands and the two daggers flying in the high speed split every leaf who fall from the tree when she clenched her fist the daggers suddenly froze in the air and when she released her hand the daggers return to her hand. Lory smiles get wider she finally able to control her weapon remotely using her power, at last, she's not that weak anymore.
[Not bad huh!] Lory twist her dagger with her finger.
[Low long you can control you're weapon until you run out of 'mana'?]
Lory pursed her lips [Ten….maximum fifteen minutes…]
Girsha roll his eyes [Let's avoid strong opponent!]
Lory smiles dissipated [Yeah….]
This small trick could not win against someone at Mong Ki level, someone like him can easily dodge her attack and killed her so she has to be smart just like she said before she needs to fight as dirty as she can because no way she can win over them in a fair fight.
[I think I need to strengthen mu body too, what happened in the ancient tomb is pure luck, if I come to that situation again who knew if I make it out alive] She said while stretching her arms.
Girsha scoffed [Good luck persuade that boyfriend of yours…] he roll his green eyes jokingly.
[What do you mean?] Lory frown confusedly.
[I saw how Fargo trained you, I don't think that boy would let you push yourself in your regular strenuous training, did you forgot he treat you like porcelain doll…] Girsha laughing at her while flapping his wings.
Lory hit her forehead with her palms he completely forgot her boyfriend temperament, Zhao Li Xin is more worrywart than Clift, he is more nagging than Fred and a lot more overprotective than Fargo if he knew what kinda training she would do he might get upset.
Lory trained like an elite soldier, Fargo would make her run while wearing a weighted vest and that's not all when she gets stronger he put ankle weight and arms weight too then every year he adding more weight, that spartan exercise was last for five years until Lory body could move faster even without strengthening spell.
Would Zhao Li Xin let her do the same exercise…..fat chance!!
