Bab 121: The strongest person in the world
One day later.
Ian and Bert had already finished their talks with Inuarashi yesterday.
Shishilian had tried the transformation, which ended up shocking the Duke and Wanda again, and then he had remarked that unlike a transformation under the moon, this one doesn't force him to lose control.
Of course, Bert had remarked that it was as such only because Shishilian had mastered his form. If a beginner did it he would still lose control of himself.
Regardless both the duke and Shishilian were still impressed and even went so far as to praise the drug for this effect. As they said even a master was still under the threat of losing control any second, and the fact that this drug annulled that was a plus in their books. Needless to say, Bert agreed in the end.
They had thanked them both profusely so much both Ian and Bert's ear hurt for a few hours after.
Inuarashi almost knelt to Ian and Bert in fact, but both were adamant that he doesn't and so he settled for thanking them verbally.
What they did was give a way for the minks who were hunted and treated as a commodity, to defend themselves in the worst of cases.
Ian could understand where he came from.
After that, they had talked about the limitation of the lunar drug. Ian had no problem supplying them with the healing water as it was easy to make for him. But he still told them to only use it when in dire need. And so the limitation of the drug was raised to four transformations per day.
And since Inuarashi had known about the drug, it was only natural that his co-leader would too.
By the night time, Ian and Co had made a visit to the whale forest, precisely the Guardians Residential District where the night ruler and his guardians reside, and then officially met Nekomamushi.
He had also requested to see the effects of the lunar pill, and both Bert and Ian knew he was just curious not that he was distrusting them. And then again one of the guardians was chosen and the effects were demonstrated.
He had asked about the drug's limitation too, as he mentioned that the stupid old dog only talked about its effects. And then Ian and Bert explained what had happened.
And so that night soon after turned out to be a huge party where the minks cooked various foods for their guests. Ian could still taste that on his tongue.
He smiled a bit.
Right now Ian was sitting in his room. By his side stood Elene and Robin watching him intently.
This whole building was given to them to use by the Duke himself.
Although it was not overly huge it was quite big. With two identical floors, each with three bedrooms, one bathroom, a kitchen, living room, and a balcony on the second floor.
In the end, they all settled on the first floor only.
By now the girls were accustomed to sleeping together so they chose one room for the three of them and Libell too. And then Bert and Ian chose one each.
The house itself was extremely clean, something Ian was thankful for. Its decoration implied an old fashioned style but still gave one a comfortable feeling.
Sitting cross-legged on the rather soft bed, Ian was half-naked apart from his boxers.
In his hand, he held a syringe filled with a red liquid.
He had thought hard about it and felt that it was necessary to strengthen himself as soon as possible as he was about to become entangled with two emperors of the sea. While on the side the diávoloi remained a threat themselves.
As such since strength was needed for him, what better choice than the very living organism that he was traveling on. Even now he could feel the massive energy contained in this elephant. He had earlier taken a blood sample and felt he was now ready.
Robin and Elene were here as sort of guards. As even if he trusted the minks, he was not about to let his guard down only to end up regretting it.
He looked at Elene and Robin one final time before he spoke.
"Alright here goes." He said. And they nodded in return.
After which he promptly injected the syringe into his bloodstream.
A couple of minutes passed before Ian finally lost consciousness, like usual, still sitting cross-legged.
****
Then two hours later Ian's eyelids opened up slowly, after which the girls who were sitting beside him chatting with each other noticed Ian's eyes glowing.
Each time Ian would question how can this strengthening further improves his body. As the feeling he has of his body is that he had reached the peak physical stage.
But then the moment the strengthening is done, he would feel that his previous state was like a child next to his new one.
He felt absolute power coursing through his body. And the simple arm movement he made felt like it would tear this place down. He had finally reached the peak emperor stage. Now he was quite confident no human or giant was as strong as him. He literally became the strongest person in the world.
Ian was feeling invincible. So much that he considered a certain thought he had earlier refused, to be quite good. And that thought was to go back and attack Im.
Soon, however, he was brought out of that adrenaline high induced after every strengthening, by Robin who shook him using one of her sprouted hands.
In his head he gave her an approving nod, as he might have hurt her if he wasn't brought out of that state, and using her ability would be good in that case.
"Are you okay?" He heard her say.
To which he nodded with a smile.
"Yes, I'm fine" he replied.
But then he noticed that Robin was surprised and was looking at him weirdly.
"What?" He said in confusion.
"I didn't say anything. I actually thought about asking if you were okay, Ian." Robin replied. And even Elene noticed what had happened.
Ian had read her passive thoughts. And since he had heard them he had thought she had spoken.
"I think I need to train me some more then." He jokingly said. But inside he meant it. He didn't want his crew thinking he was reading their minds. So he was going to master this ability and never use it on his crew and allies.
As for Robin and Elene and Robin, he knew that they had understood him, after all, they were in love with him as much as he was. They would always stand by his side.
He stood up and tried to see what was different about him, but it appeared that there was no visible change. Except that he felt that his weight had increased. Or rather his bone density had.
His height however stayed the same. Which he was content with.
He wore his clothes that were by the side folded neatly.
And then he looked at Elene and Robin for a bit and asked them with a small smile.
"Would you like to have a small spar to help me decide what's new?" He said, and they of course nodded to him happy to help.
