Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Tier Two Snow Demon Spirit
"Reina?"
David groggily opened his eyes, and was greeted with a head of snow-white hair.
"Duke David, you’re awake. Are you feeling any discomfort?"
Reina shyly lifted her head, her concerned face tinged with bashfulness, softly inquiring.
"Oh, it’s fine, just a little bit of pain."
David was taken aback for a moment, it was his first time seeing Reina so gentle, and he didn’t quite know how to react.
Had he successfully won over Reina?
"I’ll go call everyone over." Reina quickly stood up.
Not long after, Liya and Amy, with reddened eyes, came in, all gathering around him with concerned expressions.
"Don’t worry, I deliberately took that sword strike, it didn’t hit any critical points." David reassured them, "I’m just tired and fell asleep."
After hearing this, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing David impaled by a sword had really frightened them.
David smiled and reassured them a couple more times. In that situation, the only way to kill the Ice Wolf Knight was to catch him off guard, otherwise if the Earth Knight was determined to escape, he really wouldn’t be able to stop him, and it would be even more troublesome after that.
Upon listening to David’s earnest explanation, they finally relaxed, just as Shuili happened to bring over some meat porridge to help David eat.
Fire Dance brought a set of new clothes, and Liya and Amy helped him change, while only Reina appeared a bit uneasy but didn’t shy away.
...
Thus, two more days passed.
David, worthy of being an Earth Knight, had his wounds almost healed in such a short time.
"I’m really fine now."
David lay on the lounge chair, his face showing a bit of helplessness.
Being bedridden for so long made it hard for his mind to stay put. Coupled with the delay in cultivation over the past few days, he was actually quite anxious.
However, Liya and Amy were still worried about overly large movements pulling the wound, persistently not letting go despite his coaxing.
Another day passed.
David finally felt nothing.
He tore off the bandage on his shoulder, and the original wound now only had a faint mark.
Under this circumstance, Liya finally nodded, "But just once, no vigorous exercise."
David nodded repeatedly.
It had been so many days without training, it really bothered him.
Just as he was about to wrap his arms around Liya’s waist, his hand was gently knocked away.
Liya cast a sideways glance at David, then gently pulled the blushing Amy out of the room, leaving only Reina inside.
Her meaning couldn’t be more obvious.
Reina listened to the sound of the door closing behind her, and her heart skipped a beat.
Then, her face flushed bright red.
Although this wasn’t her first time, her feelings this time were completely different.
David also turned his gaze to Reina, his eyes carrying a question as he hesitantly asked, "Reina, is it okay?"
"Mmm."
Reina nodded, blushing as she came to the bedside.
Then, the inexperienced little princess lay back on the bed and closed her eyes.
Compared to the previous time’s indifference, this time Reina was full of shyness, with no reluctance at all.
David came to the bedside, looking at the familiar scene before him, suddenly chuckled, saying, "Let me protect you, and then help you reclaim the Jingge Kingdom."
The same words again, but this time Reina had no doubts at all.
"I trust you."
Reina was full of emotion, proactively reaching out to hook David’s neck.
David could feel Reina’s trust and kissed her in response.
Creek... creek...
The large bed started to sway rhythmically.
[You completed a training session, gain Snow Demon Spirit +35]
[Snow Demon Spirit: Tier One (36/100)]
The effect of this training session was unexpectedly good, directly adding 35 points.
With Reina’s official knight physical qualities, in just one day he could raise the Snow Demon Spirit to Tier Two, and the subsequent training speed wouldn’t be slow either.
"I want more."
"Mmm." Reina’s shy voice sounded, with no refusal.
In this way, half a day quickly went by.
[You completed a training session, gain Snow Demon Spirit +34]
[Snow Demon Spirit: Tier Two (9/1000)]
David came out of the room energetically, while Reina was shy as if she was a newlywed bride, and the two walked out together towards the attic.
"Sister Reina." Liya greeted them with a smile.
Since the last battle together, their relationship had progressed drastically.
David looked at the harmonious scene before him, a smile also appearing on his face.
It seems Reina had already become part of this family, and with the three of them around, even if his strength broke through to Earth Knight level, he would feel satisfied.
After eating, David headed to the castle to start training the Snow Demon Breathing Technique.
Through the morning’s training, his Snow Demon Spirit had already broken through to Tier Two, and he planned to try out the changes brought by the Snow Demon Spirit’s breakthrough.
As he started training the Snow Demon Breathing Technique, the surrounding Ice Elements began to gather and flowed into his body, enhancing his physique and spiritual power.
The Jingge Clan’s Snow Demon Breathing Technique is divided into two parts: physical training and spiritual training.
Under normal circumstances, the first three tiers of the Snow Demon Breathing Technique can only train the body, which is why Reina hasn’t been able to master the Ice and Snow Power.
However, now with the Tier Four Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline and Intermediate Ice Element Talent, he could train the Tier Four Snow Demon Breathing Technique without any pressure.
The Tier Four Snow Demon Breathing Technique has an even stronger effect on enhancing spiritual power.
Suddenly, David felt a stir in his heart, seeing a faint silver glint appear in his eyes.
Then, wind and snow suddenly kicked up around him, and with the Frost Wolf Spirit manifesting in his consciousness, it transformed into a form of a Frost Wolf!
Tier Two Spiritual Power!
He felt a change in his spiritual power.
Through constant Snow Demon Breathing Technique training, his own spiritual power was already quite good.
Last time when successfully breaking through to Earth Knight, his spiritual power had greatly benefited, receiving an enhancement.
And now, with the feedback from the Snow Demon Spirit breakthrough to Tier Two, his spiritual power also took the opportunity to break through to Tier Two!
Although the Snow Demon Spirit also provides body enhancement, David’s physique was already at the Earth Knight level, making this increase very minor now.
He experienced for a while, and the Tier Two spiritual power allowed him to have a stronger control over Ice Elements.
Besides, the Frost Wolf Spirit within his consciousness could actually be consolidated by his spiritual power, and after fusing with the Ice Elements, it could transform into a Wind and Snow Wolf!
He felt that the Frost Wolf Spirit could also be used directly for mental attacks on enemies.
With Tier Four Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline, Intermediate Ice Element Talent, Tier Two Frost Wolf Spirit, and Tier Two Spiritual Power, he more and more resembled a true Ice Mage!
He was also laying the foundation for the upcoming path of a wizard. Once he could obtain the legacy of an Ice Mage, he could immediately learn the meditation method and witchcraft of an Ice Mage!
