Chapter 53: 052 Conditions for Acquiring Skill
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
For the conversation and decision between Riley and Vivian, Shane naturally could not have known about it.
After all, the ability he activated was not so kind of all-knowing power, so it was impossible for him to know that he was receiving more care than he had imagined in a place where he was unaware.
Shane simply returned to the inn after parting ways with Tielle and the others, slept a deep sleep, and replenished his spirit.
Then, the next day, Shane did not head to the adventurer’s guild, nor did he et up with the mbers of Vivian’s Team; instead, he left Lamijion alone and ca to a patch of forest in the outskirts.
“Is this the place?”
...
Looking at the forest that maintained its natural form, Shane verified the address he rembered.
“After exiting the East City Gate and heading south along the main road, then entering the forest on the outskirts, this should be it.”
But, what should he do next?
Shane began to worry.
Fortunately, he didn’t have to worry for long as the target appeared on its own.
“Are you here?”
With sowhat cold words, a girl clad in a black robe silently approached from the front.
Who else could it be but Tielle?
“Sorry, I’m late.”
Shane quickly stepped forward.
“No worries, I just got here myself.”
Tielle replied calmly.
The conversation between the two seed rather mundane, but if it weren’t for Tielle’s cold attitude and tone, based on the content alone, it really resembled sothing a couple might say when eting before a date.
At least, that was how Shane felt.
Unfortunately, the people involved had no such intentions.
“Since you’re here, let’s get started imdiately,” Tielle turned around, saying, “Let’s first move to a less conspicuous place.”
“Alright.” Shane obediently followed.
There was no choice, today, Shane was here to be a student.
Previously, Tielle had promised to teach Shane the Skill of [Magical Sword], and this matter was now going to be realized.
Yesterday, after the group parted, Tielle had instructed Shane to co find her here today, which was why Shane was here.
But after arriving, Shane had so questions.
“So you don’t live in Lamijion?”
Shane felt sowhat strange.
“No,” Tielle, leading the way ahead and guiding Shane deeper into the forest, briefly stated, “I don’t like crowded places.”
“This place indeed doesn’t seem inhabited,” Shane surveyed the natural scenery around but then remarked, “But can people live here?”
“They can,” Tielle succinctly replied, “There is a farm nearby, and the farm owner has a house in Lamijion. I stay there under the condition of driving away the attacking demons daily.”
“I see,” Shane muttered, “I thought only elves like rica would live such a nature-preserving lifestyle.”
Elves always left people with a beautiful and pure impression, a race that seed unwilling to live in towns but instead resided in the natural world outside.
Of course, this was undoubtedly Shane’s own assumption.
“In Lamijion, there are also inns exclusively for the Elf Clan, and rica stays there,” Tielle stated coldly, “Lu Muya, along with her seven younger sisters, lives in Lamijion too, having rented a house themselves; Vivian lives at the guildmaster’s house, and only I live outside. Firstly because I don’t like crowded places, and secondly, I can hunt the nearby demons when not adventuring, doing a bit of training.”
The latter might be the real reason why Tielle chose to live outside the city, right?
Clearly a genius, yet still so diligent; indeed, no one could easily beco strong.
Shane completely ignored his own existence, thinking about things as if they didn’t concern him.
Suddenly, Shane froze for a mont.
Just now, did he hear sothing that he couldn’t just casually listen to?
“Lu Muya has seven sisters!?”
Shane realized he had heard sothing astonishing.
“Indeed,” Tielle, as if not noticing Shane’s astonishnt, stated as usual, “Lu Muya’s parents are both adventurers and married late, having Lu Muya at forty, and then birthing seven daughters at the age of fifty, so Lu Muya has seven sisters, all ten years younger than her. This is sothing known among the team.”
…So, Lu Muya’s parents had septuplets at fifty?
At that mont, Shane couldn’t help but admire Lu Muya’s parents imnsely, especially Lu Muya’s father, whose admiration was as vast as the ocean.
Unfortunately…
“Now, Lu Muya’s parents have already passed away, the reason being the many internal injuries they suffered while adventuring, ultimately passing away one after the other in their early fifties.”
The news Tielle brought next made Shane pause in his steps.
“So Lu Muya, she…?”
Shane hesitated to voice his question.
“Just as you imagined,” Tielle glanced at Shane and said, “She’s now the sole pillar of her family, adventuring only to raise her seven seven-year-old sisters. She and her sisters are now in a state of mutual reliance.”
Shane fell silent.
If that’s the case, Shane could understand why the timid and shy Lu Muya chose to beco an adventurer, engaging in dangerous activities.
It wasn’t because Lu Muya wanted to do so, but because she had no choice but to do so for her sisters.
“…Next ti, let’s bring so gifts for Lu Muya.”
Shane decided.
“Just don’t scare her,” Tielle seed indifferent about it.
While speaking, the two arrived in a more open wilderness.
“Let’s do it here,” Tielle turned around to face Shane, saying, “Without further ado, let first tell you the conditions to acquire the [Magical Sword] Skill.”
Shane nodded, paying close attention.
In this situation, Tielle began her explanation.
“As you might know, this Skill is a lee type of trump card, only with a very low probability of being acquired when at Level 70. Compared to regular skills, whether in terms of Attack Power, Damage, or usefulness, it is significantly superior.”
Tielle explained in a cold tone.
“However, the conditions to acquire the [Magical Sword] Skill are actually not that high, consisting of only two.”
“First: Increase a lee-type Weapon Skill to Level 5 or above.”
“Second: Magic Power must et the standard.”
“As long as these two conditions are t, generally speaking, it is possible to acquire the [Magical Sword] Skill.”
But it’s these two conditions that few people can et.
The reason is simple.
“lee experts usually don’t have abundant Magic Power, and those with sufficient Magic Power often choose to beco mages, so even though these two conditions are not difficult to et individually, eting them both is harder than you might think.”
Tielle directed her gaze at Shane, speaking thus.
“If you can’t et these two conditions, then even if I teach you, you won’t be able to acquire the [Magical Sword] Skill.”
The point Tielle intended to express was clear.
“Have you t these two conditions?”
That was the intent.
