Chapter 8: CHAPTER 8 – Time to act.

Me hitting Elizabeth, in my current state, is next to impossible. She is a monster, a savage predator, and I am a helpless animal. Though the odds are slim, I will do my best and fight with everything I have to impress not only her, but the empress who is watching me.

Taking a deep breath, I focus and look at the beautiful woman holding a sword in front of me. Elizabeth, despite having a relaxed posture, has no openings for attacks. It's not that she despises me, it's that the difference between our strengths is so great that it allows her to do so. However, to your misfortune. I am not just any child, I have a lifetime of experience in which I have reigned over everyone else.

Quickly, I approach Elizabeth and swing my sword vertically, which is easily blocked. Wasting no time, Elizabeth spins her body and counterattacks with incredible speed. Thanks to my heightened senses, I managed to avoid him by taking a step back. I looked at Elizabeth's expressionless face and sighed.

I injected my magic power into the sword, with the aim of realizing my skill, and went for Elizabeth. Moving my sword quickly, I performed [Leviathan], the same technique I used on the day of the entrance ceremony. If I had been at the height of my power, Elizabeth would be long dead.

However, as I am still weak, Elizabeth nullified my technique using [imperial fencing, first form]. In addition to nullifying, she counterattacked, slashing my cheek. She could have ended this fight a long time ago, but she's still sizing me up, as is the empress.

"That is all?" asked Elizabeth.

I think it's time to show my other techniques.

[Breaking through the sky]

A simple move, cutting horizontally. However, it is a powerful blow, which has a great concentration of magical power at the tip of the sword. This power is released in a blast, cutting through everything in front of you. Sensing danger, Elizabeth dodged to the side, dodging the blast of power. At the end of the blow, a large crack formed in the floor, extending all the way to the wall.

Again, my level influenced the performance of the technique. The technique [break the sky] when performed in its final form, happens just like the name, the sky breaks. To be more exact, everything is cut from the clouds to the ground. When the clouds are cut, it looks like the sky has broken, giving rise to the technique's name.

...

(Elizabeth POV)

When I saw Luke at the entrance ceremony, I felt a shiver down my spine. I, as a knight, know how frightening that sword technique he calls [Leviathan] is. The technique has already proven to be powerful being performed by a B-Rank, of course, it's easy for me to block it.

However, what would happen if Luke was at the same level of magic power as me and performed the technique? My body shakes just thinking about how scary it is. I believe the empress thought the same thing, and in the face of such a situation, she decided to have this force on her side.

Obviously, I saw that Luke held back during the entrance ceremony duel. I wanted to see his real power in person, so I asked him to show me everything he could do without holding back. As I imagined, he used the same technique he used in the entrance ceremony, however, with this current level of power, it was easy to block and counter.

He has great senses. I planned to stop my sword before it hit him, but he dodged it before that. I decided to tease him a bit, and to my surprise, he has another interesting technique.

If I hadn't dodged, I'd probably have a huge gash in the middle of my chest right now, what a dangerous technique. Looking at Margaret, she is also surprised. It is a technique in which the power released from the tip of the sword is invisible, it is as if a curved line is drawn and fired at the opponent.

It's a treacherous blow, one that made me use my heightened senses to dodge. Not only that, but it's a dangerous blow. Despite that, I believe this is not his best move. What other secrets do you have, Luke? Show me all.

"Luke, I don't remember seeing the swordsmen of the Blady family use these techniques. Did you create it?"

The Blady family's sword techniques are known, as are the techniques of the other dukes' houses. These techniques used by Luke were never performed by any member of the Blady family, there is no record of them. If what I'm thinking is true, this kid is a genius.

"Well... it was my grandfather on my mother's side who raised it. I found some books in my late mother's things that were written by my grandfather, I just had to follow the steps."

"Your grandfather? That s-Rank adventurer."

"Yes."

That makes sense. One of the reasons Luke's mother married Jeorge Blady was because of his grandfather. His grandfather, despite not being a noble, achieved a fortune and fame performing several missions as an adventurer. I never imagined he was that powerful. It's a shame he died fighting the red dragon on the mountain of chaos.

"Where are these books?"

"After learning the techniques from the book, I burned them all."

"Why?"

"Isn't it obvious? After being burned, the records of the techniques physically ceased to exist. Now they are all in my mind, and only I can use them."

"I see. Do you have any other ones?"

"Only one more."

"Show me."

....

(Luke's POV)

I just made up the biggest lie of all. Indeed, when my mother died, she left behind many things that years later were given to me. Among the things, there were several books, but they were all useless. When Elizabeth asked me if I had created the techniques, I found myself cornered, but I ended up remembering my grandfather.

There are several rumors that my grandfather was one of the greatest adventurers in the empire, who fought using two swords. I took advantage of these rumors and created this lie. I don't trust Elizabeth enough to tell her the truth.

"I see. Do you have any other ones?"

"Only one more."

"Show me."

At Elizabeth's request, I decided to show you the most powerful sword technique I have ever created. Moving the last of my magic power into the sword, I lunge for Elizabeth.

[Divine Sword]

I swing my sword twenty times, aiming for the critical points on Elizabeth's body. Sensing the threat approaching, sweat poured down the knight's face and her extinct ones told her to defend at all costs.

[Imperial Sword: Phoenix]

"Elizabeth."

Empress Margaret called out her knight's name, and rose to her feet. Then she cast a fire spell, preventing both sword techniques from colliding.

"What were you thinking about using that power here? Were you trying to kill him?"

"I'm sorry, your majesty. My body moved on instinct." Elizabeth said, kneeling.

"Luke, that's all for today. You can go back to the gym."

"With your permission."

I bowed and left.

....

(Elizabeth POV)

Luke left, leaving Empress Margaret and me alone.

"Did you say you acted on instinct?"

"Yes. Seeing that sword technique coming my way, I felt that if I didn't do my best, I would suffer great consequences."

"Is it a strong technique?"

"Yes, very much. And I don't think this technique is at the height of its power."

"Did you believe the story about his grandfather?"

"Well, that's the only plausible explanation. Would you believe that an eighteen-year-old boy, with no knowledge of the world, would be able to create such techniques?"

"No. But still, it's amazing that he's able to do them."

"Yes."

...

(Luke's POV)

I returned to the imperial academy. In the end, I didn't train anything today with Elizabeth, I can say that it was just a fight that I attacked, and she defended. At least I managed to complete the mission and managed to evolve [the eyes of the lord]. I'm curious to know what new information I might have about people.

"Lucas."

Suddenly, I hear a voice behind me. When I turn around, I see a human demi covered in bandages covering the wounds caused by Mary. It was Carina.

"Yes?"

"Unfortunately, I couldn't fight you today. But next time, duel me."

Typical of demi humans. For them, the rule of the strong over the weak is an absolute law. They literally follow the law of the jungle, in which the strongest predators are at the top of the food chain. When one of them encounters a strong opponent, they want to test their strength.

[Eyes of the Lord]

Name: Carina

Age: 18

Profession: Knight of Light.

Magic Power: A Rank

Affection: 20 (I like strong people).

New information has surfaced, affection. I think it measures how much the person likes me. It was like I thought, Carina is interested in my strength, not me in general.

"Next time it will be a pleasure to duel you, Carina."

"I'm looking forward to it. Now, I have to go, I'm going to train."

"Okay. See you later."

Well, time to act. Normally, Angelina stays in the library reading books, she likes to read romance stories according to the conversations of the men of this academy. Many of them started reading romance books just to be able to talk to her, little do they know that she likes the hero Arthur, that is, their efforts are in vain.

As I enter the library, I see Angelica sitting in one of the chairs, concentrating, reading a book. Using [the lord's eyes].

Affection: 15 (well, he saved me.)

I picked up a book, which I found interesting, and approached Angelica.

"May I sit here?"

"Oh Luke. Get comfortable." Angelica replied, surprised.

"Thanks for healing me sooner."

"It was nothing. I just returned a favor."

"Tell me about you."

"What?"

"Well, Mary, you and I are going to be spending a lot of time from now on because of the group. I already know Mary, but I don't know you."

"Oh, I understand. But if I'm going to have to talk about myself. You're going to have to tell me about you, too."

"Fine. Want me to start?"

"Yea."

"What you want to know?"

"Tell me about yourself in general."

"Well, I don't have anything interesting, as you may already know that I am the youngest son of the Blady family."

"Yes."

"Overall, my favorite color is black, I like spicy food, I like dogs more than cats (though I've never had one), I like reading thrillers..."

"I like that kind of genre too."

"We have something in common."

"Yes, and your relationship with your family, is it good?"

"I wouldn't say good. My dad was always very strict when it came to family honor, he always paid a lot of attention to my two talented brothers and kind of left me out. My relationship with him is complicated."

"But you are strong."

"Yes, but that's not enough for him."

"What about your mother."

"She... died when I was born. I have no memories of her. To be honest, I grew up with virtually no family love...."

During my speech, I was reminded of the lonely moments in the mansion, the mistreatment, the comparisons with my brothers and other things I experienced in my first life. And, for a moment, I ended up exposing feelings that I thought had been lost for a long time. I looked at Angelica, who was looking at me with a surprised face.

"Sorry."

"No need to apologize, I understand you. I also grew up without family love, I was raised in my village church, along with other children."

"Were you born near the imperial capital?"

"Yes, I was born in the village of Pallet. It's a few hours from here."

Angelica and I dove into our conversation, not noticing time passing. When we noticed, it was late afternoon, and we were both hungry. Obviously, to satisfy our hunger, we went to the refectory of the imperial academy. I noticed something important when Angelica asked what to eat, she is very fond of sweets, both food and drink. In the end, I ended up getting a nice reward.

[Affection: 30 (he's kinder than he looks).]

Then, a week passed. I kept a very simple routine, class in the morning, practice with Elizabeth in the afternoon, and after practice I would go to the library to talk to Angelina. During the afternoon, with Elizabeth, I focused on increasing my magic power. According to her, at this point, I need to increase it in order to perform more powerful techniques.

She also said that she has nothing to teach me about swordsmanship right now. According to her assessment, my fundamentals are very good and don't need to be adjusted. Also, she told me that she will only teach me imperial family swordsmanship when I reach rank S, the same goes for power control.

Something that scared me this week was when I saw Mary's information, she was the only one I was curious to use [Eyes of the Lord]. The information I had was: Affection: 1000000... (Now that I have strength, I will kill anyone who insults my friend). Her affection level is absurdly high, but it's a friend's affection. I wonder what would happen if I switched to lover.

As for Angelica, I got very involved with her. During the week, I noticed small details, and I used that to demonstrate that I pay attention to her. One day I brought her a sweet drink, the other I gave her a lip balm for her to use in this cold weather and avoid chapped lips. I treated her kindly, and on the fifth day I started using [aura of lust].

The result of my efforts was a 55-point cuddle and a panting saint in my arms. Before we got to my room, I used [lust aura], making Angelica horny. Before long, Angelica's face turned red, and her breathing became heavy. Unable to bear it any longer, Angelica asked for my help.

She agreed to come to my room, generating the current situation.

"What are you feeling?"

"My body is hot, and I feel a strong urge to have sex?"

"Have you had sex before?" I asked surprised.

"Yes, with the hero Arthur. I will marry him in the future, so no problem."

"What do you mean, problem?"

"Well, we were taught at church to only have sex with our husbands. Since I'm marrying him in the future, that's fine."

The church passes on the ideology that sex is something sacred, something that generates life. So they tell them to do it when they get married and keep their bodies to have children. I think it's stupid, what's the problem with two people wanting pleasure without commitment? If it was a problem, brothels didn't exist. Besides, damn Arthur, he took Angelica's virginity with the excuse of marriage. Well, it's true that they were married in the first life, but I didn't imagine he was that fast.

"So what should we do? You asked for my help and from what I hear, Arthur is on a mission for an adventurer's guild, he won't be back until tonight."

That was one of the reasons I decided to take the next step today. With Arthur gone, there will be no one to stand in my way. I even sent Marceline to go have fun in the capital.

"I don't know. But my body is starting to ache."

"Hmm... What if we use your ass?"

"What?"

"Well, you were taught that sex must be done to make children. Since you can't get pregnant through your ass, then it's not sex. In short, it doesn't go against teachings."

"It makes sense." she said breathlessly.

"So, can I help you?"

"Yes, help me."
