Capítulo 340: Chapter 340
"How does it feel?" Keith asked as he landed on the ground together with Minami, right next to the girl who was still shrouded in her beautiful Azure Flames, panting as she stared at the corpse of the man she had just slain.
"It's intoxicating." Kiara honestly replied, and as soon as she called back her flames, a wave of tiredness washed over her, making her sway a little.
"Easy." Keith wrapped his arm around her waist, helping her stay on her feet, and then planted a kiss on her head.
She had expended too much Mana and Aura in the last battle to take down an enemy much stronger than her, and since it was her first real battle, she had been a little reckless as well.
A curious smile crept on his face as he sensed that she had grown stronger during the battle, and though most of the power and speed boost was temporary, which had risen enough to go against an opponent stronger than her, some of it had permanently added to her Strength, Speed & Reflexes, and Constitution stats. And Keith sensed that her Mana and Aura reserves had improved a little as well.
"Sleep." He whispered as he put her to sleep, and then lifted her telekinetically before leading Minami into a nearby clearing where the spring was.
He took out a tent he had been keeping inside his storage ring, and Minami immediately set things up, including a sleeping bag for Kiara.
After they put her into the tent, Keith set up a bonfire and started to prepare their dinner, and an hour later, Iseul and Yingying arrived at the place too.
"Everything is finished, Senpai," Iseul informed him with a bright smile as she proceeded to take off her clothes and jumped right into the water to take a dip.
Keith smiled at her behaviour and looked at Yingying, who had taken her seat on the wooden bench he had created.
"Casualties?" He asked, not really interested, but Yingying still answered him.
"One of his wives died with him. Other than our targets, there have been a total of nine casualties..."
Keith listened to her briefing and then finished preparing the dinner.
Iseul got straight to munching on her fish as soon as she came out of the water and hastily dressed up.
"Senpai, Kiara's Blue Flames were not emanating any heat." She casually said, not really seeking an answer but expressing her curiosity.
"They can burn if that's what she intends to do." He told her. "Don't slack off in a spar with her if it ever happens."
Iseul nodded to him and did not ask another question. She was focused on her delicious meal and enjoyed it to the fullest. It was not every day that he cooked, and his food was her absolute favourite.
Whilst everyone enjoyed their meal, Keith checked through the pending notifications of the System.
He had gained a total of 350 Fate Value for eliminating Wislaw's threat, stealing Samrath's opportunity to hone his skill and gain strength. And this 350 Fate Value also included some points for killing people with unordinary luck.

{Battle Arts: The Nine Discs of Demise (Basic Mastery, 3/9)}
His Forging Skill still had not reached the Intermediate stage, and he knew that it would take a while to achieve.
Putting all thoughts aside, he decided to work a little on his Singing in his leisure time, and since he had nothing on hand right now, he started humming a tune that popped into his mind.
The girls surprisedly looked at him, curious, but soon they were hooked as they found the tune a little too captivating.
He kept humming it for a few minutes, and then strings of words started popping up in his mind as he created a song on it, singing it to the girls who were brightly smiling at him.
They did not understand what had suddenly gotten into him, but they absolutely loved watching him enjoy himself, and soon, under his insistence, the three of them joined him in singing.
"Not fair!" A voice suddenly made them stop, and everyone turned to look at Kiara who was walking towards them with a slight pout. "Why did you not wait for me!" She complained before she sat next to him and accepted the fish he had reserved for her. "I will sing too!" She declared, and Keith could only chuckle at her antics as he started humming the tune again.
The girls were once again impressed by how skilled he was in music as he changed some verses on the second turn which were arguably more captivating.
They all had fun as Keith designed his song for nearly an hour, and once they all had recovered and felt refreshed, he packed up the tent and cleaned up the place with his sea of Darkness, removing every trace of their camping in this clearing.
Once done, they were all ready to leave, and with Keith's nod, blurs of colourful Auras streaked into the woods as they rushed back to the Griffin City.
At the same time, hundreds of miles away from the location of Wislaw Compound, another beautiful estate existed, which was bustling even at this hour of the night.
What was interesting was that wherever one looked, one only found people with honey-blonde hair and strangely dark eyes.
This was the Sect of Ozell, and every member of it was an Ozell by blood.
In the Main Compound, inside a secret room, a group of Elders stood as a very skilled Aura Doctor examined the raven-haired girl lying on the table.
"Her vitality is simply outrageous!" He exclaimed as he checked her state and the density of her Aura. "She's perfectly fine."
"But she ingested a large amount of sleep powder." A woman, who had the trademark Ozell features worriedly spoke, but watched their Family's Aura Doctor shake his head.
"Her Aura eliminated all of it." The old man informed her. "As I said, she's in a physically perfect state, but her mind is distressed so she's asleep right now."
The words seemed to ease all the woman's worries and she stepped forward to gently brush her daughter's head.
She ignored the displeased glances some of the older Elders of the Sect threw her way, but she paid no heed to them. She was used to them now, and she knew that she deserved their attitude towards her as well, which was why she was determined to rectify her mistake and keep the blood of Ozell within their family.
"Let her rest now." A man who was standing behind the woman spoke, and all the Elders respectfully nodded before leaving the room.
"Good night, Sect Master."
Soon, it was only the Aura Doctor, the woman, and the Sect Master left in the room.
"She has already opened up all her Aura Channels, and her Body Refinement is finished as well. She's in the Aura-Soul Formation stage right now." The Aura Doctor, who was also one of the Grand Elders of the Ozelm Sect informed the Sect Master. "She's extremely talented, Theodore." He reminded and watched the Sect Master nod his head.
"It will be hard to make her accept Rilian, but hopefully he will manage to win her heart." Theodore sighed. "The Heir of Arya has asked for an audience." He said, and the woman frowned before she turned to look at him.
"He survived." She narrowed her eyes, not pleased at the failure of Wislaw.
"Wislaw are not the ones to bear losses. They will come after him again, and at least, will force him to leave Netheria."
"So you have not accepted his request?" Rubina asked and sighed in relief when she watched her husband shake his head.
She did not want her daughter to see that young man again, and she was already quite distraught that her silly daughter was not a perfect body anymore.
Rubina regretted not keeping in touch with her, and her silly daughter had ended up making the same mistake that she had. Thankfully, the seed had not taken root, so there was still a chance that she would be accepted by the Sect and would be saved from the dissatisfaction and scrutiny of the Elders.
"I will go tell Rilian that she is fine. He's been very worried about her."
"Mhm." Rubina nodded to her husband and then carefully picked up her daughter leading her to her room.
It was clear that she was going to stay by her daughter's side until she woke up.
