Chapter 57 A...A lineage? !! Seriously? (1/2)

”Um. Master?! Can you tell me why my sister is like this now?” Zaira asked.

”Yes, of course.” Theo looked at her. ”Your sister is now like this because she began to awaken a lineage in her body...” Theo sighed. ”But since she possessed a lot of impurity in her body, her lineage that was trying to awaken was picking up the low pure Mana she had in her body. Because of this, they were affecting her vital organs and leaving her in a weakened state.”

”A-A lineage?!! Seriously?” Zaira was in disbelief.

”Ah? Is it so surprising, her awakening a lineage?” Theo asked confused.

”Y-Yes!! Master, do you not know that only the most powerful have a lineage? Even though my knowledge is very small on this subject... I know that there are very few that have a lineage!!” Zaira spoke excitedly.

Indeed, Theo's knowledge of lineages was very lacking. He looked in the direction of Shina, since she lived in a city and perhaps knew something about it.

Seeing him look at her, Shina told him what she knew: ”I don't have much knowledge about lineages either, but even in the city where I lived, I know that only the royal family has lineages and the Sect teacher where I was as well, but I don't know exactly what lineage they have...”

”I understand... anyways if things went on like this... I'm pretty sure your sister would have died!” Theo looked at Zaira and smiled, ”But she was lucky to have a sister who cares so much about her and managed to find me, now, besides she can recover and she will acquire a lineage.”

The sadness in Zaira's eyes instantly disappeared. ”I did nothing! Who did it all was Master! If it weren't for Master, I couldn't help my sister!!”

Theo was amazed to see Zaira's eyes, that were almost like a fan staring at his biggest idol.

*Sigh~*

Theo put little Yui on the floor, who pouted and to which he laughed at from the cute expression of his daughter, and went to Zaira and ran his hand lightly on her head, surprising her.

With a gentle smile on his face, Theo said, ”Even if it is true that it was I who saved your sister, it wouldn't have been possible if you didn't find me and persuade me to help you.” Seeing her nod with some tears threatening to come out of her eyes, he continued: ”So it isn't a lie to say that it was thanks to you that your sister was saved!”

”I understand...” Zaira nodded, but in her heart, she will not forget the kindness Theo and they showed her.

”By the way, you don't have to follow me as 'Master'-”

”But...”

Theo did not let her interrupt and went on to say, ”I'm not saying that you don't have to pay your debt for my help, but you do not have to spend your whole life to pay it, just consider what I did as a payment, stay by my side, doing some things I ask of you, okay?”

”Right!!” Zaira replied determined to help him, as long as he needed her, regardless of what he would need her for and as long as he asked, she was determined to do it.

They then chatted... minutes passed... an hour had passed... and only after almost 2 hours Zaika opened her eyes again! Her body was surrounded by dark flames, her light-green half-open eyes sparkled dark flames, giving her a somewhat mystical appearance.

Unlike the lineage of Yuki and Theo that grew with them, her lineage already came at its highest power!! Of course, that doesn't mean she'll be able to use her lineage immediately with perfection. She is no different from Yui who was born with the Cold Metallic Dragon lineage in the same way that Yui has to train to be able to release even higher strength of her lineage, Zaira was the same now!

Even more so since she has many impurities in her body! Even though Zaika received help from Theo, who helped her expel a good part of her impurities from her body, that was not even 20% of the impurities. Unlike Yui who was born with the purest Mana and with the help of the Moon Lotus Flower, she was able to be born with a body without impurities!

But if she wants to continue to strengthen her lineage and release even more strength from it, she will need to have a better cultivation technique to cultivate, if she continued with the technique she now... Theo thought she had a large probability of reaching a bottleneck in her cultivation. And without finding any treasure to clean the impurities of her body, he couldn't even imagine how long it would take until she could rank up.

If the Mana in Theo's body is compared to a bottle and his Mana as the water in it... The current mana in Zaika's body is more like a bottle full of stones. Because of this, it was difficult for her to cultivate, since together with the Mana that her technique of cultivation collected, it comes many impurities as well.

Take for example the fight that Yui had against Zaira. One of Zaira's reasons for not being able to defend himself against Yui's attack, even with the same amount of cultivation, was because of the quality of Mana that Yui had! The time it took Zaira to control her mana to her head to defend herself was much longer because her Mana was much 'heavier' due to the impurities in her Mana and body.
