Frustrated Youngsters and Azazel's Hack
🕑 Added 2023-10-31 00:21:08 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 228 ---
Dragon Nest Main Base, Naga's Den.
Naga's Den is the most popular city in the jurisdiction of Dragon Nest's territory. The population growth has exceeded 70% of the Dragon Nest's members, with the rest on duties on other bases.
This place is a futuristic city with a melting pot of culture, as there are several buildings with different styles. The clean environment makes it even better.
Several civilians are walking on a wide main street and enjoying their daily lives.
On the side road, a muscular young man sat on a wooden bench and drank his cold beverage.
"How bizarre..." Sairaorg Bael commented with a smile on his face.
"Compared to our world, God Huo's world can still be considered the ancient era of martial artists. However, their technology is much better than ours."
Vali Lucifer leaned on a street lamp and scoffed, "This is a cultivation world. What do you expect?"
"You're just pissed that you got wiped in the arena earlier, Vali." Beside Vali, Ikusei Tobio chuckled and irked the young Lucifer.
The Pendragon Siblings glanced at each other, smiling wryly.
"You win some, you lost some."
They have been on Vali's side for a while, so they are used to his fighting maniac behavior. It's just that they didn't expect someone to beat the living shit out of him in the combat arena earlier.
"I underestimated this world's power. I thought my view on it was already high, but..." Arthur Pendragon fixed his glasses. "Almost everyone we have faced so far has this suffocating energy."
"It must have something to do with their Breathing Technique and Spirit Circuits, Older Brother." Le Fay Pendragon commented while floating on her magical broom. "They must have trained more than Vali-san, so their mastery over it is unquestionably strong."
"Indeed." Arthur Pendragon agreed with his sister's statement.
"We just made contact with Universal Breathing Technique and Spirit Circuits. Compared to them, we are total newbies..."
Vali Lucifer frowned and gazed at the sky, watching the white clouds drifting in the blue sky.
"I've gotten trained by that crazy woman for nearly a year."
"I took beatings every day, but I still couldn't describe the 'smooth' operation she talks about..."
"Breathing smoothly, she should have explained more clearly."
"Crazy woman... Are you talking about the God Slayer, Scathach?" Ikusei Tobio's eyes widened. "Dude, you're going to get your ass beaten if she knew you called her that."
"Fuck it." Vali Lucifer grumbled unhappily. "Dying is the last thing I care about after arriving in this world."
"I want to be stronger!"
"I want to be stronger and prove myself to the Blue-Eyed Dragon God!"
"You're lucky if you ever touch 1% of his power." Sairaorg Bael shook his head gently. "First, you must consolidate your Dao Heart, Vali."
"Although you have an unyielding fighting spirit, it is also accompanied by inferiority in your heart."
"Are you trying to butter me up with that cultivation bullshit?" The corner of Vali Lucifer's mouth twitched.
"Fuck you, sincerely..."
"Aih, words mean nothing. Only with an enlightened heart could one become immortal." Sairaorg Bael sighed helplessly.
"..." Ikusei Tobio.
"..." Vali Lucifer.
"..." Arthur Pendragon.
"Wow~!" Le Fay Pendragon clapped her hands in amazement.
"Sairaog-san, that was an amazing speech."
Stop, Fay. Don't feed his fantasy even further! The three guys thought simultaneously.
"Hahaha~! My Dao Heart is as firm as a mountain! Unshakeable as I roam into the great wilderness of profundity." Sairaorg Bael Laughed.
"Fuck..." The three guys facepalmed.
"Anyway... What's your Martial Soul, Vali?" Ikusei Tobio asked curiously.
"I've watched you fight earlier, but you never showed it directly."
"I'm also curious about that." Arthur Pendragon gazed at Vali Lucifer deeply.
Feeling the intense gazes, Vali shrugged and answered, "It's nothing special."
"Just tell us, dude!"
"It's..." Vali was hesitating.
<It's Fingerless Gloves.> Albion answered suddenly.
"Albion, you bastard!"
"Gloves, huh?" The others were surprised.
"No wonder we couldn't see it. You always wore fingerless gloves like a chuunibyou." Sairaorg Bael said. "Still, I'm jealous because I like to fight with my bare hands."
"What yours then, Sairaorg-san?" Le Fay tilted her head.
"Me? Well, you might be surprised, but it's a headband." Sairaorg Bael answered honestly. "It's Auxiliary-type Martial Soul that could enhance my fighting powers."
"Hmm, mine is rather abstract." Le Fay put on a complicated expression.
"My Martial Soul is my own brain. Maybe because I'm a witch who was also the descendant of Morgan Le Fay."
"My older brother also awakened Sword's Sheath as his martial soul, which is somewhat fitting."
"Make sense, but brain? I thought there were only two types of Martial Souls?" Ikusei Tobio was confused. "By the way, my Martial Soul is a freaking cereal bar!"
Crows feathers fell on them as Azazel appeared out of nowhere.
"Tsk, tsk, as expected of you, Tobio. I told you to read the manual before following us to this world." The fallen angel criticized.
"To hell with the manual. I won't read your thick book, Azazel." Ikusei Tobio returned with annoyance.
"Thick?" Everyone stared at Azazel weirdly.
Azazel coughed and answered, "I was excited, so I made an entire series about this world based on the knowledge I received."
"And to answer your question, Tobio."
"There are three-! No, four types of Martial Souls."
"Beast, Tool, Body, and lastly Artificial."
"Of course, there is also a variant of each type. Like mine." Azazel summoned his martial soul.
"GOOOOOOD MORNIIING, MOTHERFUCKER!" A woman in black appeared and drop-kicked Azazel on the face.
BAM!
Azazel flew several meters away, bounced, and crashed into a wall.
"..." Everyone.
Even the people on the streets were speechless.
"Phew, that was refreshing. That old crow locked me too long in the Martial Soul's space." The woman in black said while wiping the nonexistent sweat on her forehead.
She posed and added, "You see, this lady needs one hour of sunlight to maintain flawless skin."
The woman looks to be in her early thirties. Wearing a black dress, She has an alluring yet tall body and a pair of demonic green eyes that go well with her pale yet rosy complexion and mid-length black hair. She also has two curved goat's horns on her head.
"Vinette, you bitch!" Azazel flashed by and hugged the goat-horned young woman from behind.
"DIE!" He suplexed her on the spot.
BAM!
"..." Everyone.
What the fuck?!
First, a woman suddenly drop-kicked someone.
And now the woman got slammed to the ground.
Azazel and Vinette quarreled in the ground like cat and mouse, rolling around a few times.
"Um, should we stop them?" Le Fay Pendragon asked her brother.
"Vali-san? Sairaorg-san? Ikusei-san?"
"We don't know these people." The four guys replied with a straight face.
"Eeeh..." Le Fay Pendragon was startled.
After a while, Azazel finally won and tied the goat-horned woman with magic ropes. Well, his ways of binding are unique, though.
Cough! Cough!
"As you can see." Azazel cleared his throat. "There is a variant of Martial Soul."
"With the example of this little goat bitch."
"Fk U!" Vinette screamed, but rope gagged her.
Azazel ignored her and continued, "She's a beast-type Martial Soul that has her intellect upon awakening."
"Similar to a summoning beast, I had to say."
"As my cultivation grew, she also gained humanoid form."
"It is a pity if only her personality is a little mellower."
'Your head is mellow, dumb crow!' Vinette roared with their spiritual links.
Ikusei Tobio glanced at Vinette and then Azazel, "How unfair..."
"I got a cereal bar, and you got yourself a hot woman."
Azazel chuckled, "I said the same thing when awakening my martial soul, Tobio."
"However, there is a saying that there are no useless Martial Souls, only useless Spirit Masters."
"From my viewpoint, your cereal bar has more potential than this pretentious fellow."
'Hmph, Pretentious, your ass!' Vinette glared at him.
"I see..." Ikuse Tobio pondered about something.
Azazel put on a shady businessman look and said, "You guys want to fight, right?"
"Actually, it's not impossible to find great sparring partners."
"You only need to know how to."
"And you know." Vali Lucifer countered with disdain.
"Hehe, of course." Azazel patted his head proudly. "I've read almost everything in the Dragon Nest's library."
"Hear me out... Have you ever heard of the Continental Advanced Academy Soul Dueling Tournament?"
