章節 729: Flight Test

"It's done?" Loki asked curiously while looking at them.

"Yep." Kisuke nodded at Loki before turning back to Ais and asking, "How do you feel?"

Ais and the Dragon silently stared at each other for a minute or two before the former answered, "I can clearly feel her..."

'So it's a girl?' Kisuke thought as he suddenly grabbed the Dragon by its wings and took her off from Ais's arm, "Now, let's test something to confirm everything is functioning as intended."

Ais tried to reach out to grab Lysa back, but she was already out of reach as Kisuke had immediately walked away with her, "What are you going to do?"

Kisuke didn't answer her and reached the window, opening it. While the rest were just watching curiously, Kisuke peered through the window and confirmed his intentions, "Yosh. This looks good."

Although she didn't know why, Ais suddenly became very nervous at what Kisuke was doing, "W-what looks good?" And that nervousness was also transferred to Lysa as she started shaking.

Kisuke ignored Ais again and placed Lysa on his palm as he grinned at her, "Today is a happy day, Lysa-chan~! As my congratulatory gift for the successful contract and your name bestowal, allow me to let you experience a high-speed flight~! It's going to be fun."

Knowing his capabilities and personality, Riveria was able to guess what he was about to do, "W-wait, Kisuke... Think about this. You don't have to do this. It's obvious that there are other ways."

"There are, but this way, we'll see how effective that feature is," replied Kisuke as he placed a protection spell on the shaking Dragon. With a glint in his eyes, Kisuke took his hand holding Lysa back before swinging it hard towards the window.

Within a fraction of a second, Lysa had already disappeared from everyone's view, leaving a horrified screech of a young Dragon, "NO!!!" Ais yelled in horror as she hurriedly peered through the window in an attempt to find her new friend.

With Lysa's fear resonating within Ais, she immediately turned around in anger, but before she could speak, Kisuke's hand chop landed on her forehead, "You idiot. The first thing you should do when you feel that your familiar is in danger is to ascertain her location. You should be able to do it easily. Don't get too clouded by the compounding emotions."

Since Lysa is much more important, Ais hurriedly did as Kisuke said and closed her eyes. However, due to the maelstrom of emotions, she couldn't properly do it and it immediately showed on her face.

"Calm down. The first thing you should learn is to separate your own emotions from your familiar's. If you can't do this, you won't be able to make proper judgments. It's similar to when you face strong monsters that you don't know if you can defeat, so you should be able to do it with relative ease."

Ais immediately understood Kisuke's point and took a deep breath to calm herself down. After figuring out which was the fear that Lysa was feeling, she was able to tell her approximate location and she was still moving away from this place with an astounding speed, "I found her!"

"Good. Now call her name while thinking that you want her to be by your side."

Ais nodded and closed her eyes again, "Please... Lysa!"

An instant later, a golden Magic Circle manifested in front of her, and soon, a screeching Dragon appeared on top of it. Lysa stopped screeching the moment she realized that she was already back and that was the same for Ais as she tried to hug her, but the young Dragon dodged her embrace because she had something else in mind.

Without any hesitation, she started shooting beams of light from her mouth at Kisuke as she flew over to him with angry eyes.

"Fuhahaha~! How was the view? Since you never went out, it must've been nice~!" But Kisuke just laughed out loud while swatting away the beams of light with his bare hand.

Bete's mouth couldn't help but twitch seeing how Kisuke could casually deflect attacks that could potentially seriously harm him. But a second later, he sighed and thought, 'I already stopped comparing myself to them... But one day... one day.'

Ever since he saw how Serafall trashed Ais without much effort despite the latter trying her hardest, he'd already dropped down his competitive spirit and that was the same for everyone else. However, that didn't mean the Loki Familia lost their motivation, but instead became even more fervent in their Magic and Ki training now that they saw a possibility. The possibility of becoming even stronger than the heroes of the past.

Seeing that her Magic attacks had no effect on Kisuke, Lysa went physical and started biting the hand he's waving. But even with her teeth, which are way sharper and stronger than most monsters, she couldn't pierce Kisuke's skin. Nevertheless, she didn't stop biting and kept on gnawing his hand.

"Ais. You'll be paying for all the damages." Loki suddenly announced after looking at the holes that the Dragon and Kisuke had caused.

Ais snapped her neck towards Loki, "W-what!?"

"Your familiar, your responsibility."

Ais immediately became dejected as she was still knee-deep in debt with her weapons that kept being broken. Since everyone had decided to not go on an expedition for some time to continue their training, she didn't even have much of an income aside from occasional trips to the upper and middle parts of the Dungeon, "It can't be... It's not even my fault..."

Meanwhile, Kisuke let Lysa 'playfully' bite his hand while saying, "You shouldn't be afraid of such a thing. The Dragons I know can fly faster than that so it should be possible for you when you grow up."

That sentence immediately caught everyone's attention, "...Why do you sound like you have Dragon friends?" asked Loki.

"Technically speaking, Tanis-chan is a Dragon and a friend so she's one," answered Kisuke as he patted Lysa's head that already stopped nibbling at his hand. She became curious about Kisuke's Dragon friends that could fly fast.

Loki thought that Kisuke was just dodging the issue of his words and made it clear, "What about those who could fly fast?"

Kisuke smiled at Loki's question. Ever since his confrontation with Ouranos earlier, Kisuke had already decided to tell a few more things to Loki so this direction of the conversation was what he wanted and what he intended.

"Oh, that? Just a couple of astonishing friends~."

28th00: Oh, you know, Great Red and Ophis! No biggy. They’re faster than physics so most people assume they’re just teleporting! Something about being the manifestation of a concept or embodying it or something… Dragons are weird. Very. Weird.

章節 730: Dragon Aura

"Heh... Tell me more about them." Loki egged him on. However, she already has an idea of what was on his mind and got curious about what he's going to reveal this time, 'I wonder what this is for? I already got my hands full with those corrupted Spirits and here he is, making things even harder for me. Though I do hope it's something interesting, at least.'

The thought of avoiding what Kisuke wanted to say didn't even occur in her mind which she would regret later.

Kisuke's smile grew wider and said, "First, to give more context for easier understanding, let me explain what a 'Dragon' is." He returned to his seat while hugging Lysa, who was intently listening to him.

Ais also did the same and sat beside him, before she started poking Lysa's cheeks. While they were surprised at her unusual actions, they didn't say anything so that they wouldn't interrupt Kisuke, since they were more curious with what he's about to say.

"A 'Dragon' can be easily distinguished, but not through their physical appearance." He then looked towards Finn, "What do you think a Dragon is?"

"Monsters that generally look like giant scaly lizards or snakes that could have wings and usually have a breath attack. But you just said that not to distinguish them through their physical appearance so I'm probably wrong."

"Don't be too hard on yourself. Although I said that physical appearance is not the way to go, sometimes, it's the only way for other people, and technically speaking, it's not a bad metric as most Dragons do take those forms."

"However, there are also beings that could look like a Dragon but not really a Dragon. A few examples of those are the Wyverns and Valgang Dragons in the Dungeon."

Riveria creased her brows and asked, "I understand the Wyverns, but why Valgang Dragons?"

Kisuke nodded, "The most effective way to distinguish if one is a Dragon is to feel the Aura they are using."

"So it's something entirely different from Magic Power or Ki?" it was Loki who asked this time.

"That's right. Although they can manipulate both Magic Power and Ki, they use something else entirely different."

Ais looked up to Kisuke and said, "But I'm sure Lysa just used Magic."

"You didn't see it wrong. But the special Aura, for simplicity's sake, called the Dragon Aura, dwells within Lysa instead of Magic Power."

Everyone became confused.

"It's puzzling, isn't it? However, this is pretty much thanks to the Dragon Aura's extreme versatility. While not strong on its own, it can be converted into other sorts of energies with hardly any loss in efficiency. In other words, using Dragon Aura, a Dragon can cast Magic and use Ki simultaneously without any problem or conflicts since it came from the same source."

'Heck. It can even be converted to Demonic, Divine, and Soul Power.' thought Kisuke but he didn't say any of that.

Ais saw and felt that Lysa was also confused by all of this, "Look. Even Lysa doesn't know what you're talking about."

"Don't get it wrong. Although Lysa-chan understands a lot of things, she's still technically a newborn and everything she knew was all from her instincts that came from her peculiar origin. She indeed used Magic, but I can clearly tell that she did that by unconsciously converting the Dragon Aura within her body."

"So that's why Dragon-type monsters are strong..." Muttered Tiona. But she immediately received a knock on the head from Tione, "You idiot. Didn't he say Wyverns and Valgang Dragons are not Dragons? What are you on about?"

"Ah, that's right..." Tiona realized her mistake, but immediately after, she returned with a punch to the stomach, "Wait... My words still hold true! Amphisbaena and Cadmus are strong Dragon-type monsters!"

Tione was immediately pissed and was about to hit back but Finn immediately voiced out, "Stop it."

Taking back her fist, Tione's demeanor instantly changed, "Yes, Captain~!"

Finn could only sigh, "I'm sorry about them."

But Kisuke just chuckled while waving his hand, "I don't mind. The girls at home are also rowdy like them and I kinda like that kind of atmosphere full of energy. Makes me appreciate life more~!"

"Anyway, moving on. Dragons are undoubtedly strong, but not for the reasons you're thinking of. As versatile as it is, it still has limitations regarding that. Dragons can't be as strong as truly powerful Magic and Ki practitioners in their respective expertise."

"And you know, being a jack of all trades and master of none is very underpowered in high-level fights, save for their adaptability and versatility."

Loki threw her hands back and said with skepticism, "But that's very far from their domineering image."

"That's correct and that's where the truly terrifying thing about the Dragon Aura comes in. Dragons couldn't be the strongest in Magic, strongest in Ki, nor strongest at any other form of energy, however, they could become the strongest at anything."

Tiona looked at Tione straight away, "Say... I know I'm an idiot... But could you explain what he just said?"

Tione shook her head and replied after looking at everyone's reaction. In particular, Riveria, Gareth, Finn, and Loki's, "We know that you're an idiot, but you don't have to worry. It seems that no one else understood the nonsensical thing he said either."

Tiona sighed in relief, "Thank God... I thought I was the only one that didn't understand the joke."

"Fuhahaha!" Kisuke started laughing out loud, "It's confusing, I know, but let me rephrase it. What makes Dragon Aura truly special is not its convertibility, but its ability to become anything. And when I said anything, anything that could potentially affect reality itself."

Kisuke started playing with Lysa's belly and continued, "A Dragon's Fire Magic may not be as hot as the Fire Magic of someone strong and who specializes in it, however, a Dragon's 'Fire' could potentially burn even the soul. A Dragon's Ice Magic may not be as cold as the Ice Magic of someone strong and who specializes in it, however, a Dragon's 'Ice' could potentially freeze everything, even time."

Kisuke then looked up to everyone, "Similar to Ki, a Dragon's Ki may not make him stronger than someone who specializes in it, however, a Dragon's 'Strength' could easily crush that same practitioner."

While others still don't understand, Loki sighed and said, "I see now... It's not Magic nor Ki, but the Dragon Aura's ability to become a conceptual power."

28th00: They’re basically a living concept made manifest, eventually. EVENTUALLY! They got a straight up hax to reach that point from the very start after all. Might be a reason Gods seem to hate dragons so much, they sidestep divinity and gain divine domain based conceptual powers from the very start. But when a Dragon actually becomes a God… Things get really weird. Dragon Gods are really weird.
