章節 2: Chapter 2
At the northeastern wing of The Grand Opal Bay Pavilion Mall, third floor, while waiting for the news of my companions today to arrive, I watched mall goers going in and out in the opposite directions going to spots or locations that leads to the different training dungeons, establishments, and the gateways.
In this fantasy world of Primora, the very first time I went to The Grand Opal Bay Pavilion Mall in the Orlači-Hernandez Greater Isles during my childhood as Galavryn Lysendel, it spoke of the factor called magic, fantasy, and newer materials and resources in the equation resulting a combination of using magic and technology to create a product or item such as my own Silverfrost Echoes, a revolver that was a huge improvement to my past life revolvers, Crystalwing Talons, or that rectangular-shaped box case of an omnicomm bought by a customer at one of the official dealers of The Project Covetech Omnisphere, at that direction I'm looking at.
Magic and fantasy in Primora, just like 'them' and their impressions when we were reincarnated as Chevalyntheans, the Chevalynthean magic system, Ätherverein, opened many possibilities and excitement for exploring and testing the concepts of our past life I thought of regarding those factors and its existence back in the days of myself as Ethan Wycliffe in my past life non-magical world.
As what would former Aldrian like me half-jokingly yet seriously say, modularity, performance and optimization, they're the standard for everything.
Turning around, I looked at Tina who smiled and stored her 'cellphone'.
"Balmuth, they're at Area 6 – Zone 2. One of the branches of Ríkikrókur near The Imperium Relics Alleyway."
Area 6 of Akrathiléja, this was what happens when engineering meets magic in a magical fantasy world. Located at the northwestern side of the artificial region, one of the region expansions of Akrathiléja, the Area 6, the Zone 2 itself that was a "sub region" of Area 6, was in a nutshell having of establishments such as Ríkikrókur besides the gateways to the training dungeons and the reception stations of "The Central Statutorial Commission of Training Dungeon Affairs", and grassroots legislative contact stations, that Zone 2 was southwest of our current location, Zone 3.
Smiling, I invoked the link we had between us to make our chatter private. "Thank you, Tina. The day we ever first met, speaking both as an individual, I'll never forget those days. While I understand why I have you and your colleagues by my side due to one of my occupations and my actual identity, I am really grateful to have you and your colleagues around and knowing you all up close and personal. Come, let's go and meet them so that we can start the today's 'event' – the first step, having brunch at Ríkikrókur."
Ríkikrókur, this Chevalynthean establishment, as far as my understanding from the memories and knowledge I inherited besides as one of 'them', and being part dragon, the inspiration of it came from one of the founders' past life country, The Kingdom of Varlandia through one of its famous restaurants that was known for its famous mixture of herbs and spices. As a former Aldrian myself, I view it as Primora's parallel version of Kronenstahl's with more menu items.
"With pleasure, Your Majesty, like my colleagues, every moment we spent with you is another treasure and our bond besides trusting us with your secret. I'll never forget them including yesterday."
Enjoying Tina's smile and her happy feelings, and emotions of other girls involved with me through this implant because of Tina's happy feelings, we moved out to the location where they were at located.
The persons we'll be meeting would be 3 of my royal consorts. Those consorts of mine like myself were disguised with their fake names. The good thing about them, my royal consorts, about them, the "reincarnator girls' faction", was that they were also my consorts in my past life as Ethan Wycliffe of Aldria. In our new current life as Chevalyntheans, they were my childhood friends who also knew the actual secrets of The Founders of the Covenantal Realm. Due to what we told to our clan's elders about our secret nature of being a reincarnators during our childhood, we went through the special process that changed us and gave us an advantage towards others. The two of them we'll be meeting were reincarnators except for 1. While the rest of my "all my past life consorts who are still my consorts in this current life" couldn't join for today's plan, they'll be arriving later afternoon, 6 pm.
A couple minutes later at a place where Ríkikrókur restaurant in sight, I find myself receiving a hug from one of the three.
"Hehe, Darling energy refilled."
This lovely girl hugging me was Vivienne Mirell von Orlači-Hernandez, a disguised blue-eyed blonde girl, 1 year younger than myself in our current life, sporting a ponytail. Vivi in our past life was Princess Willow Wyynser, one of the princesses of our past life country, The United Crownlands of Aldria. She's basically almost a younger sibling-like figure to myself back then when we first met in our past life at the Wycliffe Clan Estate Garden. Due to her picking me as her husband than anyone, her father, my godfather, King Constantine the 10th, had it set and created a new ducal rank for myself for that in honor of my past life revolvers. While in Aldria, marriage between us does not require status or ranks, at least the contributions I made and the role as Ethan Wycliffe before and during the skirmish and elimination of a terrorist group and dealing with countries full of imbeciles, was enough to be recognizable alongside my alma mater for a 'portfolio', list of achievements, and resume besides being rank up in service to The Wyynser Royal Dynasty, and The Wyynser Crown in the eyes of those who don't know Aldria well, 'legit'.
Willow's current disguised appearance as Vivienne, which was based on her past life brown-haired self, the size of her "assets", it was an improvement to her former appearance as Willow Wyynser but like others as always, I love her as her. Her disguise name for this was Elowen Meyer since we're descendants of the Founders of the Covenantal Realm, and that she's one of my royal consorts. As Vivienne Mirell von Orlači-Hernandez, one of the descendants of the Founders of the Covenantal Realm, the 1st Grand Covenantal Sovereign of the Orlači-Hernandez Greater Isles Sovereignty, the 1st Patriarch of the Orlači-Hernandez, Vivienne's "weapon-type" in our current life, it was a rifle.
Smiling, I affectionately wrapped my arms around Vivi. "What a nice way to greet me again like in old times, Elowen. Since yesterday, I've been wanting to have everyone's presence but that'll be patched for later after we get in The Orlači-Hernandez Grand Estate. While we can't miss the opportunity for us to level up together through by it and reignite our affections later, surely you want to go first before them, right?"
Breaking off from our hug, I witnessed her lovely face sporting a cute blush, and stepping backwards, aware of the other method, that was with me by using The Harmonic Symposium of Draconic Connection, a dual c-
"D-Darling, why do you have to say what I had in mind?" half-rebuked this former Aldrian royal princess I fell for, with her growing blush, knowing what I'm talking about.
Besides my usual savoring of my usual enjoyment of her cute reactions while I tried to not smile behind my mask, I also got myself a glimpse of her 2 companions, my 2 royal consorts behind her, Sena Uzukaze, and Mirana "Mira" Thalendir.
Through the link between us also known as Bonds of Destiny, which I treated as "marriage mark", or a "mating mark" that can be pulled by a male who was of draconic lineage aka me, the feelings, and the thoughts, from them including from Tina, made it more enjoyable and understanding the ladies better for a "happy harmonious polygamy marriage life". As an individual who enjoys having a so-called "harem", as "that lucky bastard who married his harem legally because the country's constitution recognizes it", "that guy who enjoys women", and my own reputation, this was another stratagem of mine to have my "harem" through the marking be reminded how I love and cherish them very much.
Their reactions including from Tina, it's an example of what I liked being part dragon as Galavryn Lysendel, that was an exclusive ability to implant Bonds of Destiny on them to indicate "they belong to me" literally in a manner of fictional work from my past life I read that were youkai-themed, and fantasy-themed regarding about marriage or mates. Through this, their thoughts, their feelings, their location, through this mark, in this reality, due to it, we had stronger bonds, coordination, cohesion, and teamwork just like those days when we did our training sessions, battles, and The Covenantal Ätherverein Festival.
As what I would jokingly say, if one as reborn as a Chevalynthean male and of a dragon descent right in The United Covenant of Chevalynthea, a polygamy life for those who wanted a harem legally would fit here.
"I-I agree with Elowen. M-milord, please...we're in public." said Sena with her small blush.
Sena Uzukage, 'samurai name', Uzukaze no Senhime, she's a dark blue haired ehrenschwertmagier from one of the Covenantalian regions, her hometown, Yamato Haven, which in my view screamed The Imperial State of Wakoku, one of the past life countries from my past life, when I first visited that Covenantalian region 10 years ago as Galavryn Lysendel as part of my training and learning more about Chevalynthea and this world. In Chevalynthea there were parts that gave of "Wakoku" vibes as such I did not get rusty touch in speaking 'Wakokuan' in those places. This female non-reincarnator ehrenschwertmagier, was in a way my sort of "retainer", and one of my personal attendants with her being a childhood friend of mine counted. What I liked Sena about besides her lovely "assets" behind that so-called "ordinary light armor top" and her smile was that she's one of the individuals who could keep up with me going at 6% of my swordsmanship skills, and 10% of my gunnery arts skills. With her disguise name, Yae Gushiken, her weapon, Kaze no Tsubasa, was the name of her jūmonji yari.
Mira approached me with her small playful smile and her laughter yet I could see her blush as she gave a peck of her kiss on my right cheek.
"They were right, you know. As much I really look forward to 'it', Hubby, you should keep it to yourself since we're in public."
Mirana "Mira" Thalendir, disguise name, Karin Adlerauge, she's a black-haired girl with matching black eyes, who in our past life selves as Aldrians, were one of my childhood friends, my third cousin, one of my consorts, and one of the Wycliffe Clan girls I married in my past life, Trinity Wycliffe. As Mirana "Mira" Thalendir, in her current self, she's one of the descendants of one of the Founders of the Covenantal Realm, Shen Thalendir, a dragon, who was one of responsible for carefully designing The Covenantal People's Unity Front, The Covenantalian Governance Model System, and a couple more Chevalynthean tactics and playbooks for the arsenal. Her "weapon-type" in our current life, it's a revolver, a custom one naturally.
"Gotcha. A bit oops for my part as your lover and husband there, my queens." I admitted in joking manner as I shifted my tone into a fondness when take my gaze at Tina who sported a small blush from my small joke yet she had that playful smile and not hiding it. "Anyway, with this setup and our current levels, I can conclude the lineup of our so-called party for Whitemist Peaks Archipelago training dungeon is a good lineup even if we are not together as whole."
Looking at them all, they agreed.
For our lineup, it would look a bit off at glance If one does not know the Chevalynthean magic system, Ätherverein and its design created by The Founders of the Covenantal Realm.
The Ätherverein magic system itself does not have "class restrictions", meaning no "pure builds", and no "affinity requirements".
Per each "level up" for the Ätherverein cultivation level of the Ätherverein practitioner, for the Ätherverein practitioner, their mana and mana reserve became stronger and bigger like a sharpened knife, bones became stronger and sturdier, and their outward physical appearance remaining young or youthful while getting life span longer like you thought you read an immortality cultivation works of fiction, with 'sects' here called as The Royal Covenantal Ätherverein Orders.
In the context of the United Covenant, that Covenantalian magic system was obviously part of our lives in this country. I naturally took time to knows anything from it, analyze the factor of having magic system and what would be things expected from the government including the kinds of statutory boards, and most of all, to myself who created my personal equipment in my past life as Ethan Wycliffe, create my personal items including the very classified Aldrian items right here in this world.
As far as the inherited memories and knowledge I received, one of the perks of being dragon race and descended from the Founders, the Ätherverein magic system had many related topics as "Combat Arts", "Medical Healing Arts", "Crafting Arts", "Magical Technology Arts", "Dungeoneering Arts", etc. while outside the magical aspects, the "non-magical versions" such as "non-magical" version of "Medical Healing Arts", "non-magical version" of engineering and material sciences, and many others, were also covered in The Covenantal Realm for pragmatic and practical reasons as it was shown in the day of the early days of founding of the Realm and creation of the magic system on year 1502.
This lineup for the next round training session later scheduled during lunch time later, it was okay by my analysis.
If one ignored the Covenantalian magic system, at the ordinary person's glance, it would be like – 1) Sena and Tina being the "vanguard", 2) Mira being "ranged", 3) Vivi being the "long-ranged support/semi-designated marksman" and 3) me being the "hybrid" which was partially true except that the presence and nature of the Covenantalian magic system basically gave an impression of "chasing all the paths without restrictions in a manner that those who would cultivate themselves in the path of polymathy would not be hindered", and "master of all professions".
In other words, we're both formidable and almost a "squad of pseudo-polymath with having a multiple skill set" that also has a skill set of "healer"-class as per common sense stated when we first started our training as ehrenschwertmagier squires, schwertlehrlinge, during our childhood, poured with the situations that made us, us, since there's that 'other cultivation method' I would use with my lovely harem, and particular Chevalynthean null category spells whose effect was obtaining knowledge and wisdom, things for my side was like booking an elite gold-class leveling services express bus.
'It can't be helped for my life as Galavryn Lysendel with things that comes with it. Chevalynthea's that very fucking fortunate to have founders of the country be reincarnators and having 'that'. Talk about the highest classified state secret like that Seigneur light novel I read from my past life in a matter of how the nation was formed. Ah, I missed those moments of me trampling those insects.' With those thoughts regarding the real story and real secret of The Covenantal Realm was formed and the origins, my current life and what I went through, and my past life and its moments, pushed aside, I 'tested' Mira on what to do since it's still morning like literal 7 AM, as I removed my recreated Crystalwing Fox Mask, one of my possession from my past life, revealing the 'illusion' based on my past life appearance as Ethan Wycliffe, that was a black-haired Aldrian male with emerald green eyes. "What should we do first for the first part of this 'event', Karin?"
Mira smiles from my 'test' and gave an answer. "The usual, Hubby. We book one of the training dungeons as our morning warm up."
"Yeah!" agreed Vivi, her bright smile showing who I swore if she's a kitsunemimi instead she would have excited fox tails swaying excitedly, as she continued through our 'private chat'. "It's our usual morning routine back 'in those days'. We went through plenty of times before and why we had a National Sentinel Initiative Class the first place."
National Sentinel Initiative Class, that item from my past life country, was basically a national defense education pioneered by my former fatherland's second king. Unlike Primora, Mundo itself got no magic yet we got creatures such as that voltusks, those gargantuan electric bears, had us, the Aldrians, having a paramilitary training besides having that so-called Aldrian militarism as part of the Aldrian culture and way of life. In those days while there's the online game I formerly played around, the routine that my two reincarnator certified waifus referring to was the usual.
That routine was the warm up like daily "stretching". It's what I did back in those days as a former Aldrian including before like days of related to the components of The Aldrian Governance Model System, and The Wycliffe Clan affairs as per befitting of my position.
As for why I tested them, this was another refresher exercise back, one of the traditions in my past life fatherland, which we call it as "Mind and Memory Recollection Exercise". For us, the Aldrians, this was another method of "sharpening one's mind".
With my mask removed, I nodded in agreement and satisfied, as I then smiled yet I ignored the blushing looks and gazes of the girls outside my 'harem'. "Well done, my dears. Let's now grab ourselves a brunch, shall we?"
They nodded.
