As the beast was down and Leah was absorbing the giant spirit core it left behind, Lord Ra arrived at the location and got down from the ship.
Azzy, who was guarding her in the disguise of a young man, or precisely, his future self he t, walked forward with a smile on his face, stopping him in his tracks, "Hi, how may I help you?"
Since they already knew that people on this planet speak and write the sa language, it made Azzy's job easy.
He also didn't show any animosity, thinking that it was best to form a connection with a local here and use him to get information that their spaceship couldn't gather by deep planetary scanning.
Of course, this doesn't an he would not be guarded against the stranger. Azzy knew how vulnerable one would be when they were absorbing a spirit core. He was prepared to defend themselves at any mont.
Fortunately, the stranger didn't show any animosity either and introduced himself like an amiable person, "Hello, I'm Ra of the Astralon City." He further praised them, "I'm sorry I was just passing by and I saw you fight that beast. Who are you people? Qigong is sothing that cannot be defeated by the likes of a human."
"So, this beast is nad Qigong, huh?" Azzy showcased his cluelessness by blurting it out by mistake. Upon realizing it, he covered it up by stating, "We were from an unnad village located in the mountains. After we were engaged, we started our journey to travel all over the world. We rely encountered it by accident and thought it was a good opportunity to make a breakthrough."
"Your fiancée?" Lord Ra turned his attention to gaze at Leah, "that is one hot chick."
As he stared at the beauty, observing her face for a while, a frown appeared on Azzy's face. With displeasure clearly written on his face, wiping off his earlier smile, He snapped his fingers in the stranger's face, "Eyes here, Mister."
"Ah, I'm sorry." Lord Ra apologized with an awkward smile, "Say, after this, where you two were planning to go?"
Azzy answered, following what they planned in advance, "There's an acquaintance we wanted to et. But, we are not sure where we should start. However, his unique abilities cannot be hidden from the world. As we travel around, we search for him."
Lord Ra's eyes lit up when he heard that. "I can help you with that. As the lord of Astralon city, I have connections enough to find a person. If you have a na, photo, or sketch, we could find your friend. Until then, you are welco at our Astralon City."
"Hmm…" Azzy thought for a bit and slightly turned his head to glance at Leah and a confused Elias, who was also in disguise, but as a random human with ordinary features one could find on the streets of a town.
At first, he wondered whether he should talk with Leah. The stranger's intentions seed obvious to him but if that was all there was to it, then, Azzy felt like he had nothing to worry about. They were not a real couple anyway.
However, if the stranger has malicious intent, they are strong enough to teach him a lesson. It might cause trouble for them but it is not like the world they landed in is technologically superior, especially in the space departnt.
Before landing, they saw that the planet didn't have any artificial satellites or space stations orbiting around it. However, according to Aria, the planet's weaponry system is quite advanced, although not as advanced as theirs.
After analyzing every possible issue and related solution, Azzy gave a nod to the stranger, "Alright, we are in your care, Lord Ra."
Lord Ra let out a smile, "Thank you."
Half an hour later, Leah finally opened her eyes and got up, finding Azzy was fighting with so stranger, not so far away from her. It didn't seem like it was serious as there were no injuries or scratches on either of them and neither there was any damage to the surroundings. It was mostly physical combat.
As soon as she rose to her feet, they stopped at the sa ti and turned their attention to her.
Ra was quick to act before Azzy, "Congratulations, Ms. Leah on reaching the apex of your cultivation at such a young age." He abandoned Azzy's side and walked toward Leah, displaying how impressed he was.
Leah took a quick glance at him and let out a smile, "I appreciate your kindness, Lord Ra."
"You know ?" Ra looked a bit surprised and halted his footsteps for a mont.
Leah chuckled, "I was rely absorbing and refining the spirit core. I'm aware of what's happening in my surroundings."
"Ah, I see…" Ra looked away with a blush on his cheeks, feeling embarrassed.
Leah then shifted her gaze toward Azzy, her face turned serious as she clenched her fist, "Azrael, let's have a spar. I want to know how strong I got."
"Eh?" Ra was taken aback once again. He looked back at Azzy and then at Leah, thinking, "Are these two not on good terms? In that case…" A thought appeared in his head but he shook it away quickly, "No, don't even think about it, Ra. But…" He took another glance at Azzy, "he doesn't seem that strong based on our spar. At most, his combat power should be around 75 million.
When equipped with his Arcana spirits, it could raise to 80-90 million. Clearly, he is not a challenge for and neither is he a worthy individual for soone like her who had more than 900 million CP. The strong get what they want. That is the rule of the world. But then again, I don't think even I'm not a match for her now that she made a breakthrough.
So, I will only dig my grave if I have inappropriate thoughts. Maybe, I should challenge him for a serious battle after this? Will she be impressed or get angry? Or maybe, it is better to challenge her."
As Ra was busy with various thoughts going over his head, Leah walked past him and went into a battle stance, roughly around ten ters away. Azzy, on the other hand, stood there in the sa spot. He gestured for her to co at him.
Leah charged forward and threw a punch at a blazing speed, only to be evaded by Azzy with a simple sidestep. She followed up with a series of punches during the next few minutes that only seed very difficult to count for even Ra, but Azzy perfectly evaded down to the last punch, until Leah stopped on her own.
Ra: "…"
Taking deep breaths, she comnted in a bit of a disappointed tone, "It looks like I can't catch up to you, even after the breakthrough."
Azzy let out a smile and replied, "If it is just pure physical combat, it is obvious that you are not a match for . First of all, I'm in the Supre realm for a while and my powers are more stable. Secondly, my divine physique is far superior to yours, Leah. Unless you go all out, you won't able to find the difference in our strength."
"Nah, it will generate too much commotion," Leah ruled out such an idea. As sothing clicked in her mind, she suddenly burst into laughter, "hahaha…"
"Hmm? What's funny?" Azzy was perplexed.
Leah replied, "Nothing, I just thought you are so mighty and all but still got your ass beaten by Louis."
Azzy blushed in embarrassnt, "He didn't defeat . I was just careless."
"But, even your superior might is useless against his spatial prowess, isn't it?" As Leah tried to make fun of him, on a whim, Ra, who was watching in a daze, raised his hand, "Umm… excuse … Is this Louis you are talking about, the heir of Serkheti tribe?"
"Serkheti?" Both Azzy and Leah turned their heads to look at Ra.
