Chapter 21: Pure Lotus Physique
"Eh?"
Aaron was surprised by Miara's request as he hadn't expected her to ask him so suddenly.
He really didn't want to teach Miara not because he was against it but because he didn't want to hand out the 'Six Styles' so casually. The only reason he even decided to teach Elliot was because the system had initiated a mission specifically for him.
These thoughts flashed in his head for but a moment before he answered.
"It's not that I can't teach you it's just that I can only use the method to impart them just one time a year and I've already accepted Elliot as my student.", Aaron said smiling apologetically at Miara. This was the quickest excuse he could come up with at the moment.
"Oh...I understand ", Miara looked dejected as she answered but she quickly understood that it might have been out of place for her to ask for Aaron's techniques. She had only known him for a few days after all. They might be his families secret skill for all she knew.
"I hope you understand. Anyway, I should hurry up and get to Elliot before the sun sets.", Aaron responded.
He and Elliot than walked over to the trees about 50 ft away from the camp.
"He must have his reasons Your Highness", Doug said to Miara
"It was my fault, I was out of line to make such an abrupt request. No need to dwell, lets finish setting up camp and give them some privacy.", Miara said as she walked to her carriage.
Over by the trees, Elliot who couldn't wait anymore spoke.
"Master, If at all possible I would like to start by learning Soru!"
After watching Aaron demonstrate the 'Six Styles' he fell in love with all of them but felt that Soru would allow him to protect his life while he practiced and trained the rest.
However Aaron didn't respond
"Master?", Elliot looked at Aaron who had suddenly closed his eyes.
Currently Aaron was asking the system exactly how to transfer the 'Six Styles' to Elliot.
[User need simply apply his hand to targets head and initiate transfer]
'It's that easy huh..', Aaron sighed as he marveled at the system.
Truly it does make life easier.
He snapped his eyes open causing Elliot to jump.
"I have a special way of teaching you my skills. You need not chose one to start with since all of them will be transferred. Come, sit down"
Elliot was confused but he still did as he was instructed.
Aaron then placed his hand on Elliot's head. After a moment a panel appeared in front of his eyes.
[Impart 'Six Styles' to Elliot Drake?]
[Y/N?]
'Yes'
[Imparting...]
Elliot who was simply starting at Aaron suddenly felt his head starting to throb in pain. Just as he was about to ask Aaron what was happening he felt that new information was being forced directly into his head.
'T-This?'
Realizing what was happening he grit his teeth and endured.
Aaron who was watching the whole thing was surprised to see the pained look on Elliot's face but then realized what was happening. He too had experienced the same thing when he first arrived to this world, twice in fact.
After a few minutes Elliot stood up, a smile reaching from one ear to the other could be seen plastered on his face.
"Master! Thank you for your kindness, I Elliot Drake swear to forever follow you!", he said.
However before Aaron could speak Elliot spoke up once again.
"Also, master is indeed master. To not show all your cards in front of the Princess and her guards. To think there were actually seven skills! However it seems a bit different then the rest, I can't seem to grasp it."
"What?", Aaron was shocked.
'Seven Skills? There should be six; Why would there be seven?', he thought to himself.
'Scan!'

Kami-e– Lvl 1/10

Shigan- Lvl 1/10
Tekkai – Lvl 1/10
Rokuogan – ?/10
"EHHH?!?!?!"
'System explain whats going on!', Aaron shouted in his head. He couldn't understand why Elliot had suddenly obtained haki and Rokuogan! Even he hadn't received it, so why would Elliot?!
[The System's evaluation of Elliot has determined that he is capable of Mastering the six styles to there peak thus has imparted the concept over. Also, armament haki will only serve to enhance his prowess and maximize his use of the 'Six Styles', which will benefit the host ]
'But why didn't I receive it?', he couldn't help himself from asking. Rokuogan was a devastating attack that only those who masted the other 6 could learn.
[This was determined by my creator.]
'…...., What the hell!'
'This isn't over!!!', he cursed the system in his heart.
Emerald City – Nobles District
Late at night, in the noble district of Emerald City one could find quite an impressive estate. When compared to some higher ranking nobles this estate could not be considered massive but in the eyes of commoners it might as well be a palace.
Inside the main living room of this manor, six people could be seen seated across from each other, one would notice however, that there was tension in the air. Among the group Veronica could be seen sitting next to a young lady, her fair skin , long red hair ,and blue eyes similar to hers. However those very same eyes held a look of contempt as she stared at the visitors across from them. Seated next to both of them was an older gentleman who was about in his forties. He had short red hair, clean shaven face, and a muscular build. This was Veronica father, Baron Nigel Morgan!
"Baron Morgan, I truly have feelings for your daughter and simply wish to to let these feelings be known to all. This would not only allow for both of us to be happy but also bring prosperity to your family", a young man in a luxurious blue and white robes spoke. He had long black hair that reached past his shoulders which he kept bound with a simple white silk band. His face although not ugly could not be considered handsome, he looked quite average. However one would be sorely mistaken to brush him off for he was no ordinary young man.
"Young Master Henderson, I don't wish to be rude but I've already given you my answer. As long as Amber is willing than I have no qualms however she has already said she was against it. As her father I only want her to be happy so I'm afraid I'll have to respectfully decline, please understand." , Baron Morgan said firmly.
Just as the young man in blue was about to respond the older gentleman next to him raised his hand to stop him.
"Baron Morgan, please understand that disciple Aston is quite young and simply can't restrain his feelings. As for Miss Amber I'm sure in time they'll come to love each other. You should carefully consider, seeing as to how Aston here is a Duke's son your Family would greatly benefit from this marriage."
Baron Morgan composed himself and was about to respond when Veronica suddenly shot up.
"Love? Nonsense! All of you from the Deep Wave Sect are simply after my sister's unique physique!"
"Veronica!" ,Duke Morgan shouted at his daughter who had lost her temper. They couldn't afford to offend either of these people. One was an elder of the Deep Wave Sect and the other was a Duke's son who had entered the sect over a year ago, either on the them could cause him grief if they felt so inclined.
"But Father!", Veronica shot back.
"I said enough!"
"Veronica listen to father.", Amber finally spoke.
She was against this entire thing but didn't wish to cause her father any more problems so she could only respectfully decline and hope for the best.
"Sister...fine."
Veronica was about to respond when she saw the way her sister looked at her all she could do was sit back down in a huff, unable to hide her dissatisfaction.
"Baron Morgan, we do not wish to cause argument between family members and it's getting quite late so we'll take out leave. Give it some time to think over, we'll be back in a few days. I truly only wish for their happiness", the elder smiled. However one could clearly since the sarcasm in his words.
"I'll have to thank Elder Mao for your visit however I can still say that my answer will not change so there will be no need", The Baron responded.
"Well...give it some thought. We'll be taking our leave no need to see us out", Elder Mao said while getting up to leave. Aston and the other disciple both followed suit as they walked behind the elder and left the manor.
"Bah! Liars! Both of them are up to no good!", Veronica snorted seeing them leave.
"I know, but we must approach things carefully. Although they wouldn't dare attack in the capital they could still cripple our businesses and merchants as they travel." , Baron Morgan responded with rubbing his forehead.
"Father, if it escalates beyond our control I'm afraid...", Amber spoke up with a look of concern.
"Don't worry, I plan on seeking an audience with His Majesty to help resolve this entire affair. We can only wait for now."
Outside The Manor
"Elder, are we really just going to walk away if they say no?", the other disciple asked.
"Of course not, that young lady has the Pure Lotus Physique, how could we let such a treasure go to waste? If we can obtain her for Aston, he would be able to cultivate our Sects profound Frozen World Art. Remember Luke, although our sect mostly practices and accepts those with an affinity for water, our strongest skills are based on those who can manipulate Ice Qi. Aston is one of the rare few with such fortunate, If he can dual cultivate with her, his Qi will be purified without leaving any impurities. He'll be able to use pure Ice Qi which is necessary for the Frozen World Art, this is not something we can simply ignore.", Elder Mao responded.
Luke, the other disciple shook his head vigorously while agreeing with Elder Mao. Although he was only at the Late Core Formation realm, he knew that after one entered the Earth realm they begin to attract elemental Qi into their body. However, this Qi is usually not pure and tainted with a very small amount of the other elements, unless one possessed a profound cultivation skill or treasure that allowed them them to only absorb pure Qi there would always be just the slightest of impurities. Although this would not cause to much issues for the majority of cultivators, there were some profound arts that required Pure Qi, their Sect's Frozen World was one such art.
"No need to worry junior brother, although we can't act against the Baron due to The King, there are other ways to go about this." , Aston suddenly said.
"Senior brother, I have no doubt you'll obtain that woman and become the 7th member of our sect to master The Frozen World and then you'll definitely become the next Sect Master!" , Luke responded enthusiastically. He had been with Aston since he entered the sect and followed him around like a lap dog, he was sure that Aston would succeed.
"Hahaha, all in do time." , Aston said, unable to hide the pride and arrogance he felt.
To be able to use one of the 4 rare Qi attributes was a blessing from the Heavens, he couldn't let such an opportunity escape him. He was a Duke's son and a Core Disciple there was nothing he wanted that he couldn't have!

Aaron_Heart Sorry for the wait, had sudden inspiration for my main novel I'm writing and got distracted. 2 chapters today, one of which is at almost 4000 words so it could be considered 3 shorter chapters ;P
Also a big shout out to Hakushaku, Rahul, Draiga, Zeffur, Melvinbonillara, and EternumLAWS for the power stones!
Glad all of you are enjoying the story, and I'll try to get a consistent schedule going here soon.
