Chapter 209: Long ti no see, young Mr. Lance, 160 years old.

“The aning of ‘suspending from a beam’ is this: find a rope, tie one end to your hair, and the other to a horizontal beam in the temple. When fatigue and drowsiness from reading set in, and you start nodding off, your head will inevitably begin to droop.”

At that mont, the rope hanging from the beam will pull on your hair and cause pain to your scalp, which will wake you up due to the brief agony. The drowsiness will disappear, and then you can continue reading.

However, I feel this thod would be useless for a Giant Dragon like you. If possible, I would recomnd you tie a steel brush to your forehead, with its dense bristles made of special materials.

It should be capable of penetrating your defense. That way, when you doze off and your head collapses onto the desk, the steel brush’s thousands of silver needles will prick your forehead, that pain… tsk… just thinking about it gives one the shivers.”

“!!!”

To read a book, she not only has to gamble her beauty but also her life?

The Human Viscount in front of her is really squandering his talents.

He should beco a devil.

Just the thought of it made her forehead ache slightly.

To thoroughly solve her problem of dozing off while reading, the Human Viscount even thought of creating a specially made brush capable of inflicting pain on her.

What does that an?

It ans the Human Viscount is truly considering her needs, even taking into account the defensive power of a Thunder Giant Dragon’s body.

She vaguely understood why the title ‘Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor’ was given to the Human Viscount.

Besides depicting him as an Evil Dragon turning the Sword Path Domain upside-down, the Human Viscount’s ideas are sotis quite sinister.

“Has anyone actually hung from a beam or stuck awls in their legs, or tied a steel brush to their forehead, just to read a book?”

“Yes.”

“Suspending from a beam and sticking awls in one’s legs for the sake of reading, I believe. But tying a steel brush to the forehead, I don’t.”

Lance, lying in the rocking chair, looked at Elina and smiled without speaking.

You don’t believe it?

Many, many years ago, a Black Dragon, in order to overco the problem of dozing off while reading, tied a steel brush to his forehead and cramd all night. Decades later, feeling that he had achieved his academic goals, he went to a kingdom in the Human World.

His brilliant talent started from a negligible official position… step by step, he beca the greatest corrupt official in the kingdom…

Eventually, he was sent to the gallows.

After decades of hard study and achieving success and fa, he beca greedy for pleasures… indulging in luxuries…

The vicissitudes of life, starting from being a corrupt official…

“Why are you laughing? Your devilish suggestion has even made the forehead of this Thunder Giant Dragon throb with pain. Let learn swordsmanship from you first.”

“I have a ‘Sword Scripture’ that I authored myself; take it and read it. When you finish and understand this ‘Sword Scripture’… you will be a Thunder Giant Dragon with a Swordsmanship Skill Level. As for how far you can go on the path of swordsmanship after that, it’s up to you.”

A book with a blue cover, two fingers thick, flew from Lance’s fingertips and landed on the desk where Erinna was reading.

Erinna, a mature Thunder Giant Dragon, doesn’t need to start from the very basic fundantals to learn swordsmanship.

After completing and understanding the ‘Sword Scripture’ he wrote, Elina will naturally beco a master of swordsmanship.

As for whether she can beco a ‘Sword Saint’ or a ‘Sword God’, it will be up to her from there.

He has another ‘Sword Scripture’, saved for the Dragon Whelp.

The Dragon Whelp’s current lessons are plenty, and there’s no need to touch on swordsmanship for now. When she’s about fifteen hundred or close to two thousand years old, with sufficient experience, it’ll be ti to hand her the ‘Sword Scripture.’ When she finishes and understands it… she will naturally beco a master of swordsmanship as well.

A master leads the way, cultivation depends on the individual.

Whether or not one can carve out their own path in swordsmanship, whether or not one can achieve ‘Swordsmanship to God’…

It all depends on whether they have the talent, the insight, the opportunity, and the destiny…

To comprehend one’s own path in swordsmanship… sotis, it really requires that bit of luck…

Or an epiphany.

Without luck or inspiration, one can only grind with ti.

Pureblood Dragons have long lifespans; with enough effort, even without luck or inspiration, they can grind it out with ti.

A true swordsmanship genius is terrifying.

Like the hero Reg, his natural talent for swordsmanship, insight, and fortune are outrageously strong.

My Black Dragon natural talent for swordsmanship is average; I’ve slowly ground it out over ti…

And then there’s mindset and emotions.

Having a good attitude and stable emotions also helps in cultivating swordsmanship.

“Let study by myself?” Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna picked up the ‘Sword Scripture’ from her desk, flipped through it casually a few tis, and a look of pleasant surprise appeared on her face.

Illustrated text.

It wasn’t just words; this should… books like this shouldn’t cause drowsiness to read.

The little figures were drawn vividly…

“Wait, when I see humans learning swordsmanship, there’s always a teacher teaching, and the students observe and learn by watching. So teachers have students practice the basics of swordsmanship, or practice Sword Drawing Techniques, like drawing the sword hundreds of tis on the first day, a thousand tis on the second… gradually increasing to ten thousand, a hundred thousand…”

“Why is it that when it cos to you, you just give a ‘Sword Scripture’ and tell to learn swordsmanship by reading a book? Shouldn’t you have start by practicing the fundantals of swordsmanship, or practicing Sword Drawing Technique?”

In her imagination, she had fantasized many scenes of the Human Viscount teaching her swordsmanship, but never reading a book to learn it.

“I teach according to the student’s abilities. If you were human, I would teach you that way. But you are not human; you are a Thunder Giant Dragon, so there’s no need to use such a conventional thod to teach you swordsmanship.

It’s the sa statent I made before: once you finish and understand the ‘Sword Scripture,’ you’ll be a master of swordsmanship. If your talent and insight in swordsmanship are exceptional, you might even grasp the Sword Intent after finishing the ‘Sword Scripture.’

With a few years or a few decades, or a hundred years of consolidation, perhaps you could even grasp the ‘Domain.’ If you can grasp the ‘Domain’ now, through analogy, you might directly comprehend the ‘Domain of the Sword’ that belongs to you.”
