First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 228

Chapter 228: Going to Rest

After another intense period of combat, Orion saw another opportunity. He shifted the flow of mana within him, channeling vibrant green energy onto his blade.

Within seconds, his obsidian sword glowed vividly with a calm yet resilient emerald hue—the Wood Sword Aura.

Edgar visibly halted for a split second, genuine shock registering clearly across his composed face.

Lucan openly gaped, dramatically throwing his arms up. "Are you kidding me right now, Young Master?! A second Sword Aura already? Are you secretly some ancient monster in disguise?"

Orion chuckled lightly at Lucan’s exaggerated disbelief, calmly executing a graceful combination of attacks.

The Wood Sword Aura’s adaptability and resilience allowed him to fluidly alternate between offensive and defensive tactics, adjusting smoothly to their shifting strategies.

Edgar quickly regained composure, eyes glinting with profound pride. "Incredible, Young Master. Achieving mastery over two elemental sword auras in such rapid succession... Truly astonishing."

Lucan shook his head dramatically, laughing helplessly. "At this rate, Young Master, you’ll exhaust all surprises by next week. Can you slow down a little and let us mere mortals catch our breath?"

Orion merely smiled faintly, focusing deeply on the practice without revealing the full scope of his progress.

He debated showing his Thunder Sword Aura as well but decided that showing off two Sword Auras at once was enough of a shock for the two of them.

Eventually, Orion lowered his sword calmly, signaling the end of their rigorous practice session.

His breathing was slightly quickened, sweat trickling gently down his face, yet his eyes gleamed vibrantly with deep satisfaction and confidence.

Edgar approached calmly, a respectful nod accompanying his genuine praise. "Young Master, today you have again far exceeded our expectations. Your talent and diligence are truly unmatched."

Lucan wiped imaginary tears dramatically, sighing theatrically. "If this continues, I fear I may never again win a single spar. My fragile pride is at stake here!"

Orion laughed gently, shaking his head at Lucan’s antics. "Your pride seems to recover quickly enough, Brother Lucan."

Lucan grinned widely, nodding confidently. "Indeed, Young Master! It’s one of my best qualities."

Edgar chuckled quietly, placing a supportive hand on Orion’s shoulder. "Excellent progress today, Young Master. You should now rest for the day. You had a long day at the academy as well."

Orion nodded in agreement, sheathing his obsidian sword. "Alright then."

After bidding Edgar and Lucan goodnight, Orion returned inside the mansion, the vast corridors illuminated gently by the warm glow of mana lamps.

A calm silence lingered through the estate, broken only occasionally by the muffled footsteps of servants carrying out their evening tasks.

Orion moved steadily, eventually reaching the comforting solitude of his personal chambers where Rina and Fiora waited for him.

Smiling lightly towards them in greeting, he walked with them to take a relaxing bath, letting the soothing heat seep into his muscles.

The faint fragrance of herbs and mineral-infused water enveloped him, easing the tension from his arduous day.

Afterward, the two of them dressed him in comfortable clothes before heading out to do their own things. After that, he went to join Eldric and Selene for a sumptuous dinner while telling them about the day’s events.

The two of them listened to him with great attention.

After finishing dinner, he went to Seraph’s room and chatted with her for a while. It was, as usual, him chatting and her listening.

Then he went to his room and sat down comfortably on the plush chair beside his polished wooden study desk. He then spent some time chatting leisurely with Lumi, recounting the day’s events in greater detail.

[Master, today was so incredible! Learning three new Sword Auras in such a short time, you’re definitely going to become the strongest!]

Lumi excitedly chirped, her holographic form appearing brightly on his desk, gently swaying in a playful dance.

Orion chuckled softly, leaning back into his chair with a contented sigh. ’Yes, it felt incredible indeed. I honestly wasn’t expecting to comprehend them so rapidly, but practicing extensively inside the Tower really accelerated my progress.’

Lumi twirled joyfully, beaming brightly.

[Lumi will always support Master, no matter what path you choose!]

He laughed gently at her joyful antics, glancing toward the neatly organized bookshelf beside his desk.

His eyes lingered thoughtfully upon the Runesmithing book he had purchased from the academy library.

’Anyway,’ Orion said calmly, extending his hand and retrieving the thick, meticulously bound tome from the storage ring, ’I’ve spent enough time speculating tonight. I think it’s time I start studying Runesmithing. Grandma would be happy with it.’

Settling back comfortably onto his plush bed, Orion carefully opened the book.

The title glimmered slightly beneath the faint mana illumination—Runesmithing: Fundamentals & Techniques.

The neatly written text, precise diagrams, and meticulously illustrated rune formations immediately caught his interest.

[Master is studying even more now? Aren’t you tired after such a long day?]

Lumi asked gently, a slight pout forming on her cute holographic face.

Orion chuckled softly, shaking his head as he flipped carefully through the introductory Chapters. ’I am slightly tired, Lumi, but not tired enough to sleep early. And I’m also excited to read new things. Such as Runesmithing, Alchemy, and Spirit Arts.’ freeweɓnovel-cøm

Lumi nodded approvingly, her expression turning serious and supportive.

[Then Lumi will quietly cheer you on from here, Master! Good luck! (๑˃ᴗ˂̵)و]

Orion chuckled softly, ’Haha, let’s read together then.’
