Chapter 348: Oasis and Amilia(2).
"So Elder Volacris," Amilia said, forcing herself to push away the wave of shyness that crept into her chest.She kept her tone casual, but her fingers fidgeted ever so slightly against the folds of her robes. "What was Mirrage talking about when she spoke about nightlife?"Oasis’s shoulders stiffened just enough for her to notice — a rare tell from someone so composed. His eyes narrowed faintly, as if deciding how much truth to offer."Oh, that? Honestly… I had asked Mirrage to show me around the city. When I realized she was mostly working at the Pecunia Association, I thought it’d be better to wait until night, after she was off work," Oasis said, his voice even but with a faint hint of defensiveness.Amilia tilted her head, her gaze steady on him. "Can’t you see the city with your retainers? It’s not like you’ll get lost or attacked — not with your strength."Her lips quirked into a knowing smirk. "You just wanted specifically her. Men… with their lack of control over their lust."
Chapter 347: Oasis and Amilia.
"Now the true fun is about to begin," Venak muttered under his breath to Shiye, noticing that the courtyard had emptied.The duel’s spectators had long since departed; now only few remained—himself, Shiye, Oasis, Mirrage with her escorts, and Amilia with hers.The air still held traces of heat from earlier spells, mingling with the faint mineral scent drifting in from the hot springs nearby.Oasis descended from the dueling platform with unhurried steps, his composure unshaken.His gait was confident yet calm, the quiet authority of a man who had nothing to prove yet everything under control."Greetings, Lady Mirrage," he said, bowing slightly in her direction.His voice carried a polite warmth, though his focus shifted quickly to the other woman before him.When his gaze met Amilia’s, her own eyes locked onto his without wavering."So these are the Ghost Eyes everyone whispers about," she thought, her attention caught by the shimmering azure glow in his irises—a sight both mesmerizin
Chapter 346: Oasis vs Ruyel.
"Fire magic: Phoenix Blaze," Oasis whispered, his voice low but brimming with intent.He extended his palm forward, fingers spread like the talons of a hunting bird. In an instant, cyan magic circles flared into existence, each intricate rune rotating with a hypnotic grace.The air around his palm shimmered, and a rush of heat radiated outward as if the very atmosphere was bending to his will.Then, with a sudden surge, flames of a rare cyan hue erupted forth—pure, elegant, and terrifying in their beauty.They writhed like the wings of a celestial phoenix, leaving trails of azure firelight in their wake as they hurtled toward the Grand Elder.Grand Elder Ruyel’s lips curved into a smile, his eyes narrowing with amusement."So this is the cyan flame," he thought, fingers flexing with a veteran’s precision."Flame King Magic: Flame Spear!" he declared, his tone ringing like steel striking steel.With a flick of his fingers, molten energy gathered in a heartbeat.A spiraling spear of bla
Chapter 345: Duel and Beauties.
"Fierce. Truly fierce. And he speaks without fear of contradiction… so that was his way of saying Don’t worry about me." Vulcan’s eyes glimmered with thought as he studied Oasis."Interesting… very interesting. Talking with this kid feels like striking an unexpected vein of ore. At this rate, I might even consider handing Mirrage’s hand to him—tie him to my Ignis family.""But… geniuses like him tend to attract women like flames attract moths. Would Mirrage be willing to settle for that? For love and the family’s sake?"Vulcan rose, brushing invisible dust from his robes."Junior, we’ve talked long enough. It’s time for me to return to my chambers. You can rest now."Before Oasis could respond, Vulcan was simply gone—vanished without so much as a ripple in the night air.Vesta gave a sharp little “squeek!” that dripped with amusement, her tiny eyes squinting as if to say, "That man likes you more than he lets on."Oasis chuckled softly."Mmh… that was nice," he thought.His gaze drift
Chapter 344: Perspective and insight(2).
"But I’m sure even among them, there are those considered geniuses—more talented than the others. Ain’t no way their aptitude can be the same," Vulcan said with a low, knowing tone."So all in all, Dragons are terrifying. In fact, all sacred beasts are terrifying. So, junior—if in the future you happen to meet one, if your techniques can let you escape, do that. If you can hide yourself, do that."He spoke firmly, completely oblivious to the irony—that he was offering this advice to one who was a sacred beast.And not just any—Oasis Volacris, a hybrid between the most exalted of all: Dragon and Phoenix.Oasis’s gaze softened."When I really think about it… I’ve never read much about sacred beasts, nor most races outside of humans," he thought, his mind brushing over memories like pages in an ancient tome."But from Master Elias’s life scroll, I do recall some records of the sacred beasts."The details resurfaced—whispered legends written in careful, reverent strokes:"There are five s
Chapter 343: Perspective and insight.
"You do understand the principle behind the Flame Step, I believe?" Vulcan asked, tilting his head slightly as his eyes studied Oasis’s reaction.Oasis frowned in thought. "Mmh… not entirely. But I’ve somewhat grasped it—though I can’t say I comprehend it fully.""Is it… like a footwork technique for martial artists?" Oasis asked, curiosity slipping into his voice.Vulcan gave a small nod."Mmh… sort of. But my Flame Step is more advanced, I believe. For example—when I’m in battle, as long as I release my magical energy throughout the field, I can easily move around with precision. I ride and jump along that mana—and if I wish, the jumps are instantaneous."Before Oasis could respond, Vulcan vanished from the rooftop in a burst of red-gold embers.A heartbeat later, he stood on the ground several meters away, his aura fluttering from the sudden displacement.Then—without even a flicker of warning—he was back in front of Oasis."You understand how effective it can be," he finished casu
