"Okay everyone, you are dismissed," I say while standing up from my throne.
Hmmm… now that I think about it, our kingdom doesn't have much honor. We are destroying the potential threats around us due to my paranoia… it seems that rant about my children trying to "uphold the kingdom's honor" was just spouting bullshit.
I walk down my throne, only to see my wives standing at the bottom arms crossed.
"It seems you can handle the pressure in the room," I complint Aika.
"Well, I have been training with many strong warriors. Even Akito sotis," Aika says puffing out her chest.
Oh yeah! Akito, I need to ask him how he got full mastery.
"Give a second, I need to ask Akito sothing,"
I quickly dash down the hallway with my new scythe in hand. I saw Akito and Mia consulting about their plans going off the orders that I gave them. Also, my little phoenix continues to perch on my head but I decided to un-summon it for now, since it used about 20 mana every 5 minutes.
"Akito! I have a question!" I call out from down the hallway.
"Please ask away my queen," Akito replies.
"How did you get full mastery? I feel like training could be one way but is there another way?" I ask.
To be honest, training was boring unless you practiced with soone else. But, I need to confirm that training is actually how you achieve it and not another way I can't think of.
"Oh, training for full mastery is impossible. At least for our life spans. We can train the entire day, 24/7 and we won't receive full mastery. What you need to learn is how you can inject skills into your weapon. Is there a spear that I can borrow to show you?" Akito asks.
"Let's just go to the training ground,"
"As you wish. Mia, you can go ahead," Akito says.
Mia nods her head in confirmation as she continues down the hallway.
…
FWOOSH
Akito had just used [Wind Magic] on the practice spear, causing it to turn into a vortex of wind in the shape of a spear. It was sucking in the air all around it, but it was but a breeze in front of .
"That's what it looks like, but now I need to tell you how to do it. First, you have to be holding your weapon, it can be any hand you want. Next, activate any skill that you can produce from your hand and then try to intertwine it with your weapon's body. It should be easier if you activate [Intense Focus] or [Concentration].
Finally, you have to make sure it doesn't break your weapon. This ans, even after you injected the skill into the weapon, you have to keep part of your concentration on it, while using it, otherwise…"
BOOM
"It explodes, just like that," Akito says, dodging all the splinters flying his way.
"Is that all? With full mastery do you even get a boost in your skill level?" I ask.
"Sadly, it does not,"
So… when I saw Akito in that sparring match, it wasn't because of full mastery that he was that good, but because his skill level is just on another level… Well, that's to be expected since he uses a spear all the ti while I barely get to practice with a scythe.
"I think I understand, let try it out…"
I picked out one of the weighted scythes from the weapon rack and spun it around a couple of tis. It was about 2x heavier than the scythe I had just put down, so it threw off a bit. After practicing for about 5 minutes I was able to adjust to it.
I took a deep breath in and out, then activated [Concentration]. I tried out [Forbidden Magic: Zeus's Nimbus] first. I had no regular magic anymore so I had to work with forbidden magic for now.
I closed my eyes and felt sothing fluffy form in my hand. I tried to control it but it seed out of my reach. It was much easier to control a tangible skill rather than sothing that produces from myself and then proceeds on its own.
Wait…
I deactivate [Forbidden Magic: Zeus's Nimbus] and try out another forbidden magic that I have done sothing similar with.
"[Forbidden Magic: dusa]," I mutter.
It should be sowhat the sa as when I turned the mountain to a crumbling heap of rock.
I feel the skill activate at the center of my palm and I control it to intertwine with the tal of my training scythe. It felt like I was trying to slip a molecule into the space between 2 other molecules… in other words, it was hard, too hard, but I didn't give up.
A drop of sweat rolled down my cheek as I slipped the forbidden magic into the scythe. Akito noticed this and decided to turn away, to let concentrate. Also, I deactivated [Heightened 5 Senses and More] which was getting annoying since every ti sobody took a step within my range, I was able to sense it. [Concentration] heightened it even further so my best bet was just turning it off.
I squeezed my eyes shut as I felt multiple drops of sweat run down my neck.
Almost there…
BOOM
It exploded in my hand. Shards of petrified tal flew towards but once they hit my skin, they crumbled instantly.
*sigh*
"How did you first do it and how did you even find out about it?" I ask Akito who turned around after hearing the explosion.
"It was honestly by pure luck. When we were fighting an Aqua Serpent, I was running out of mana and my concentration was a bit off. This caused to activate [Wind Magic] in my hand with my spear and by pure luck, it injected into my spear.
Since I didn't control it, it exploded and we ended up running away. I then reviewed the battle through mory and tried it once again. I practiced for about 1 week, going through thousands of wooden spears until I got it down.
But if it is you, my queen, you should be able to do it," He says with a smile.
My face currently had a deadpan expression on it. Even though I had higher luck I never had anything lucky happen to … at least from what I can rember.
"I'm going to eat lunch, I'm so hungry," I say whilst dismissing Akito.
…
The rest of the day was pretty dry. All I did was have lunch and talk to my wives about our plans. They were excited to have kids and agreed to my statent of letting them live normal lives for a while.
Once I finished lunch, I practiced injecting [Forbidden Magic: dusa] into the training scythes for the rest of the day. They kept exploding but my practice wasn't for naught since I could feel myself getting closer to finishing it.
By the end of the day, I was able to get halfway up the handle without it exploding. I didn't even realize that I had used up about half my mana just practicing for half the day.
Once it was pitch black outside, I had dinner and took a bath with my wives. Aika tried to make a move on but I was able to hold her back until we finally crawled into bed.
I activated [Ancient Reproduction Art], but not much happened-
I felt myself beco… warr… and then hotter… it was almost like an aphrodisiac. I also kept the sa skill as when I had [The Art of Sex: 4] which let us enjoy the night for much longer.
[Day 30]
I woke up exhausted. Aika had to carry to the bath and I noticed sothing I didn't notice last night…
"You're starting to develop abs,"
"You don't like it?" Aika says covering them up with her arms.
"No, it's pretty cool, it's proof of your hard work. Now just don't beco so strong that you look macho," I chuckle to myself.

"It seems you have so new skills,"
"WHA-! Oh yeah, I forgot you have [Inspect]. I was hoping to surprise you," Kumo says.
"I wanted to surprise you once I evolved," Homura says.
"How about you show during the war,"
"For sure," Kumo says.
Homura nodded as Aika had a persistent expression on. It seems she hasn't been discouraged by the sudden increase in my wife's power.
Also, it seems Kumo is sowhat of a tomboy. She has developed so of the speech patterns that I used back on earth. Plus she has not been wearing dresses as much and instead has been wearing long sleeve shirts and pants.
