Chapter 59: Fire Sweep, the Ultimate Skill

Liszt had a sense of achievement after teaching Dudderson how to unleash magic.

I’m a guy who knows science after all.

Experiments were the foundation of science. With simple experiments, he had figured out the usage of the space ring. It could keep common items but not living things. Liszt believed that the soul was some sort of movement, too, and that it would perish when it came to stillness.

He also stored things and took things out to test the consumption of magic power.

For now, it was still too burdensome for him to use the space ring.

His life was pretty occupied.

However, after two days, he began to feel bored.

All the elvish insects had been properly settled down. Agriculture and fishing were flourishing. Roads were being built slowly but surely. The candidates for the knight squad were being tested by Marcus and did not require his attention.

Just like most nobles, he was so bored that he had to find something to do.

If he were in a city, he could hold a ball, throw a party, or go hunting and make friends. However, there were only four people in Flower Town qualified to dine with him. He couldn’t prepare banquets for them every day.

So, Liszt decided to find something to do for himself.

He intended to conquer Thorn Hill in advance.

Thorn Hill is the greatest obstacle for Flower Town. It has to be broken through, or I’ll remain blind and deaf here.

Liszt knew the importance of communication as a modern man.

He talked about human trafficking with Levis before, but he didn’t know if Levis took it seriously. If Levis forgot to tell the Tulips’ fleet about the arrangement, he would have to wait for another three months.

Since the fleet had to stop by a lot of islands, every trip would take at least three months.

If he missed on the chance, the development of Flower Town would be delayed for another three months. Liszt did not want to waste his time.

It’s difficult to deal with monsters because they can launch ambushes anytime in the forest. If I chop all the trees on Thorn Hill, can the monsters defeat Marcus in an open field? Besides, my Red Blood Sword is thirsty for blood, too!

A gemstone weapon was certainly a great help in dealing with low-level monsters.

The sword was perhaps not very sharp, but the ruby embedded on it could at least double Liszt’s combat ability.

Cling!

He drew the Red Blood Sword and held it with both hands. It was a two-handed sword.

The silver sword shined coldly.

“Heart of Fiery Dragon!”

Liszt shouted and slashed forth. The ultimate skill of Dragon Drill was activated. Fire rose on the Red Blood Sword and surged forward with an explosive sound. The skill was supposed to be performed on the horse, but Liszt had managed to perform it on foot.

Also, he learned to focus the attack in one direction without hurting himself.

Withdrawing the sword, he stood straight.

The fire was gone, and peace was restored, but the heat in the air indicated the power of the attack. He exhaled casually. If there had been a Wind Blade Wolf before me, it would’ve died.

He had grasped Dragon Drill.

Now, he was no longer a new earth knight but one capable of fighting. All he needed was more experience. He intended to study Furious Fire more. Furious Fire was a collection of moves that required a horse.

Three of his four squires had been sent to Marcus to help with the training, and Gray Sickle was the only one with him.

“Gray, carry my lance. I’m going to practice.”

“Yes, my lord!”

They came to the horsefield.

Green clovers stretched out to the horizon, and they were most exuberant near the wormgrass. That part was occupied by Black Dragon, which would bite any other horse when they trespassed.
