Chapter 685: ...like rabbits (1/2)

*Hua!* *Hua!*

At the core of a silent forest, a young man around the age of 15-16 could be seen wielding a 9 foot, 9 inches long spear.

This young man was lean, his naked upper body glistened with sweat under the glare of sunlight but that's not the only reason. If one looked closely, they will discover that the young man has scales. Each scales looked like they were made out of platinum, covered in a rainbow colored gleam. The scales could be found on the young man's feet and thighs, there are some on his elbows all the way down to his fingers, his nails were sharp as well. Scales could also be found on his neck, stretching down to his oblique's, creating a strangely attractive feature for the young man.

The young man's facial features weren't bad in the first place anyway. He has a angled face, sharp brows and jaw line, his eyes were golden and could turn into slits whenever he wanted to, he has a long black hair, tied in a ponytail, and his body was lean but muscular.

This young man was of course, none other than Vendrick.

After making his breakthrough last night, he didn't sleep at all. Instead, he began adjusting to his new state by practicing his spear.

It has been a while since Vendrick fought with a weapon. On his original world, he once used a hammer, but that weapon turned into a wheel that can shoot out numerous palms so he focused on controlling that instead. During the recent years, he mainly fought using a Brush, drawing runes that could rain down meteors to his enemies.

It has truly been a while since he felt the sensation of mastering a weapon wielded by his own arms, and it's a spear too. Compared to most weapons, pole-based weapons are significantly harder to master but if one does, mowing down large numbers of enemies is just a simple matter.

Vendrick wasn't practicing any fancy or flashy Spear Arts. True to his nature, he believed that the basics are more than enough. The basic spear art or any basic battle arts are the basis for most techniques anyway so if he truly wanted to, he could learn them just as easy. But using the same logic, since most battle arts were derived from the basics, then learning the basics are enough on it's own.

This is best arrangement for Vendrick's current state too. Currently, Vendrick's casual strike could cause a giant boulder to exploded into pieces. He can run at the speed of sound and his defense was so high that any mortal weapons can't hurt him. A dragon's physique is just that absurd, this is not even including his use of True Essence and his true specialty which is 'Strength Control'.

What Vendrick is focusing on right now, is raising his skill for his Spear Arts. And so far, it's going good.

Thrust, Cut, Slash, Parry...one by one, the basic spear movements were performed to their outmost perfection. Not a trace of wasted movement nor a speck of energy went out of his control. Vendrick look like he was performing a dance with his movement, creating an ephemeral visage that twists a person's perception.

After finishing his last repetition, Vendrick exhaled and kept the spear away. He grabbed a towel from the storage bag and began wiping away the sweat forming on his body. He also took out some water and snacks to replenish his energy.

”My realm's stabilized by now.” Vendrick muttered to himself. ”I'll just stick to practicing the Basic Spear Arts for now. Going out of the tribe might be a good idea as well, I'd like to have some real combat. Well, I'll return for now...”

Saying that, Vendrick shook his head and returned to his hut. On his way back, he didn't forget to harvest some fruits and berries. Thanks to formation he set up on this forest, the true essence became abundant, causing life to be more vibrant here. It affected the flora and fauna, creating a paradise land where all sorts of fruits and vegetables grew at a rapid pace. This way, even if they run out of 'visitors' and the trio finished all of their stolen food supplies, they could still live-off of eating these things.

As he entered the vicinity of the their huts, Vendrick frowned and almost rolled his eyes due to the sheer ridiculousness of the situation.

A bland expression could be found on his face as he heard faint rustling, groans and moaning from the hut next to his, which was Rosa's by the way. What made this even more awkward is that, Vendrick's heightened senses were backfiring.

He didn't need to be close just to hear and smell their activities...

Sufficed to say, Arthur and Rosa were surely having a great time. As for why Rosa decided to surrender herself to Fatty Arthur, frankly Vendrick didn't care. What made him speechless is that their curiosity is really great. Not even a full 24 hours passed since he had the 'birds and bees talk' to them and they're already shamelessly going at it.

”Oi! You shameless neighbors! It's already bright her outside! Don't tell me you're going to keep mating like rabbits still? There's thing called a 'rest' you see.”

Arthur and Rosa froze when they heard Vendrick's voice. His timing was impeccable too since they were just thinking about going at it again, unfortunately their fiery and intimate feelings were ruthless snuffed out by their cold-blooded friend.

They looked at each other, dismay and embarrassed expressions could be seen on their faces. Arthur leaned down and gave Rosa a loving kiss, patting her buttocks and saying:

”We'll continue this later. You should rest...”
