"Heh... Tell more about them." Loki egged him on. However, she already has an idea of what was on his mind and got curious about what he's going to reveal this ti, 'I wonder what this is for? I already got my hands full with those corrupted Spirits and here he is, making things even harder for . Though I do hope it's sothing interesting, at least.'
The thought of avoiding what Kisuke wanted to say didn't even occur in her mind which she would regret later.
Kisuke's smile grew wider and said, "First, to give more context for easier understanding, let explain what a 'Dragon' is." He returned to his seat while hugging Lysa, who was intently listening to him.
Ais also did the sa and sat beside him, before she started poking Lysa's cheeks. While they were surprised at her unusual actions, they didn't say anything so that they wouldn't interrupt Kisuke, since they were more curious with what he's about to say.
"A 'Dragon' can be easily distinguished, but not through their physical appearance." He then looked towards Finn, "What do you think a Dragon is?"
"Monsters that generally look like giant scaly lizards or snakes that could have wings and usually have a breath attack. But you just said that not to distinguish them through their physical appearance so I'm probably wrong."
"Don't be too hard on yourself. Although I said that physical appearance is not the way to go, sotis, it's the only way for other people, and technically speaking, it's not a bad tric as most Dragons do take those forms."
"However, there are also beings that could look like a Dragon but not really a Dragon. A few examples of those are the Wyverns and Valgang Dragons in the Dungeon."
Riveria creased her brows and asked, "I understand the Wyverns, but why Valgang Dragons?"
Kisuke nodded, "The most effective way to distinguish if one is a Dragon is to feel the Aura they are using."
"So it's sothing entirely different from Magic Power or Ki?" it was Loki who asked this ti.
"That's right. Although they can manipulate both Magic Power and Ki, they use sothing else entirely different."
Ais looked up to Kisuke and said, "But I'm sure Lysa just used Magic."
"You didn't see it wrong. But the special Aura, for simplicity's sake, called the Dragon Aura, dwells within Lysa instead of Magic Power."
Everyone beca confused.
"It's puzzling, isn't it? However, this is pretty much thanks to the Dragon Aura's extre versatility. While not strong on its own, it can be converted into other sorts of energies with hardly any loss in efficiency. In other words, using Dragon Aura, a Dragon can cast Magic and use Ki simultaneously without any problem or conflicts since it ca from the sa source."
'Heck. It can even be converted to Demonic, Divine, and Soul Power.' thought Kisuke but he didn't say any of that.
Ais saw and felt that Lysa was also confused by all of this, "Look. Even Lysa doesn't know what you're talking about."
"Don't get it wrong. Although Lysa-chan understands a lot of things, she's still technically a newborn and everything she knew was all from her instincts that ca from her peculiar origin. She indeed used Magic, but I can clearly tell that she did that by unconsciously converting the Dragon Aura within her body."
"So that's why Dragon-type monsters are strong..." Muttered Tiona. But she imdiately received a knock on the head from Tione, "You idiot. Didn't he say Wyverns and Valgang Dragons are not Dragons? What are you on about?"
"Ah, that's right..." Tiona realized her mistake, but imdiately after, she returned with a punch to the stomach, "Wait... My words still hold true! Amphisbaena and Cadmus are strong Dragon-type monsters!"
Tione was imdiately pissed and was about to hit back but Finn imdiately voiced out, "Stop it."
Taking back her fist, Tione's deanor instantly changed, "Yes, Captain~!"
Finn could only sigh, "I'm sorry about them."
But Kisuke just chuckled while waving his hand, "I don't mind. The girls at ho are also rowdy like them and I kinda like that kind of atmosphere full of energy. Makes appreciate life more~!"
"Anyway, moving on. Dragons are undoubtedly strong, but not for the reasons you're thinking of. As versatile as it is, it still has limitations regarding that. Dragons can't be as strong as truly powerful Magic and Ki practitioners in their respective expertise."
"And you know, being a jack of all trades and master of none is very underpowered in high-level fights, save for their adaptability and versatility."
Loki threw her hands back and said with skepticism, "But that's very far from their domineering image."
"That's correct and that's where the truly terrifying thing about the Dragon Aura cos in. Dragons couldn't be the strongest in Magic, strongest in Ki, nor strongest at any other form of energy, however, they could beco the strongest at anything."
Tiona looked at Tione straight away, "Say... I know I'm an idiot... But could you explain what he just said?"
Tione shook her head and replied after looking at everyone's reaction. In particular, Riveria, Gareth, Finn, and Loki's, "We know that you're an idiot, but you don't have to worry. It seems that no one else understood the nonsensical thing he said either."
Tiona sighed in relief, "Thank God... I thought I was the only one that didn't understand the joke."
"Fuhahaha!" Kisuke started laughing out loud, "It's confusing, I know, but let rephrase it. What makes Dragon Aura truly special is not its convertibility, but its ability to beco anything. And when I said anything, anything that could potentially affect reality itself."
Kisuke started playing with Lysa's belly and continued, "A Dragon's Fire Magic may not be as hot as the Fire Magic of soone strong and who specializes in it, however, a Dragon's 'Fire' could potentially burn even the soul. A Dragon's Ice Magic may not be as cold as the Ice Magic of soone strong and who specializes in it, however, a Dragon's 'Ice' could potentially freeze everything, even ti."
Kisuke then looked up to everyone, "Similar to Ki, a Dragon's Ki may not make him stronger than soone who specializes in it, however, a Dragon's 'Strength' could easily crush that sa practitioner."
While others still don't understand, Loki sighed and said, "I see now... It's not Magic nor Ki, but the Dragon Aura's ability to beco a conceptual power."
