113 Ch. 113 Lunar Festival (1/2)
Facing the hurricane that was not too hard, Niken could survive and stood in her place firmly. She felt a little proud because she was not uprooted or blown away, but her mentor's words destroyed her pride.
”Niken, as long as you can still feel the hurricane that attacks you, this second stage of training is far from succeed. If you don't feel the hurricane, then I will consider you pass.”
Niken's eyebrow furrowed at the words of her mentor's phrase. So the purpose of this stage of training was to make her not feel the wind attack? How could she do it?
As if he could read her mind, Lionel gave further explanation.
”Just like when you were trying to fight the gravity's pressure two days ago, in the face of this wind attack, you must focus your astral strength rather than your muscular strength. The mastery that a Time Master was most proud of is their astral power that the Elementalist couldn't destroy. Therefore, don't rely on your physical strength and build defenses in your astral dimension.”
Niken sighed still did not understand how to rely on her astral power.
”Let's try one more time.”
They tried it five times for the rest of the day, and there was still no progress. Even though the typhoon pressure created by Lionel was just ordinary wind, Niken could again feel the wind pressure and the gusts of the hurricane that made the day's training fruitless.
The following days, Lionel still gave the same typhoon and did not expect progress from Niken. Xiao Feng had previously needed one to two months to successfully build a defense aura from her astral dimension. That's why he didn't expect Niken to immediately complete this stage in just a few days.
Then one day, Lionel decided to give Niken a day off.
”Really? Can we go down the mountain and attend the lunar eclipse festival? Are you serious?”
”Yes, I'm serious with my words. There will be a lunar eclipse tonight, so the power of the white knight will weaken, and you don't need to worry if he will track you. Tonight is the right time if you want to have fun.”
”Sir Lionel,” Niken felt touched by her mentor, giving her time off to take a break from training that was getting harder.
”Don't be too happy. After tonight, I won't give you another vacation or bedtime. Our time is getting smaller, so we can't waste more time.”
”I understand.”
”Ah, you can also take this opportunity for your intimacy session. Maybe it can help improve Niken's astral strength.”
Instantly Niken's face turned crimson as the hot steams raised above her head.
Sir Lionel, why do you have to say that in front of Kazuto, ah??
Niken no longer knew whether this mentor was hostile to Kazuto or not. She even suspected that the two knights were intentionally acting like enemies while actually trapping her to be persuaded to do the knight's intimacy session.
On the contrary, Lionel didn't like Kazuto's presence because he felt the young knight disturbing Niken's concentration. Still, at the same time, the man could also help improve the quality of Niken's energy strength through intimacy sessions.
It would be better if they go all the way, then their energy strength would multiply. But, Niken wouldn't do it. She would allow Kazuto to do the union on their bridal night. That was a tradition from the Nishian kingdom.
A woman was not supposed to give her virginity to who was not her husband. While a man who snatches the sanctity of a woman out of wedlock will be judged as a rapist.
