Chapter 832 A Week After
-----
[Day 287]
It was a long month inside my divine realm, although it was merely a week outside. I spent it doing various things, mostly training my abilities and also my family"s powers. Benladann, Miranda, Benladra, and Kate had been slowly leveling up their Jobs and Skills. Jobs can level up by slaying monsters and doing things related to Jobs, while skills can only level up through constant usage. There"s no monsters in the divine realm only very weak wild animals, so we have been not able to level up their Jobs much other than going out into the jungle to kill the big monsters near Rank 4 or even the Rank 5 Beast Kings, which had all been taken down by my family, their levels are roughly all around 20 by now, which has enhanced their stats a lot, and they had gained a series of new Skills too. Benladann"s usage of Chaos Magic has been improving amazingly thanks to Skills that facilitate its use.
Aside from that technical stuff, we had been training with Benladann, her draconic powers are improving and she got a better gist of it, feeling more confident after three months of training, and she had slain Rank 5 Monsters easily with her Half-Dragon form where she covers herself in scales. If she uses her Chaos Dragoness Form, it becomes overkill, nothing, not even Rank 5 beasts can withstand her power for too long, my wife is officially even more busted than before. And that"s without even mentioning Miranda"s power, who had also improved amazingly, both are giant powerhouses. To make things more severe, Benladann"s new Spirit of Chaos improved her ability to control Chaos and use it to fight even more, so everything is coming along quite nicely.
Aside from that, I"ve been training Benladra and Kate. Benladra has learned to better control her Mana and use it into little quant.i.ties, and I"ve detected divine power surging from her from time to time, the same with Benladann and Miranda, and even more with Kate, who felt like her very structure had divine power. This Divine Power must be from drinking the Divine Cultivation Potions I"ve made for them, they had yet to break through to Divinity, but they seem quite close. Anyways, going back to Benladra, I"ve taught her a series of low-cost spells so she can improve her mana manipulation slowly, after that I"ve taught her more Light and Life spells of higher categories and tiers thanks to Pekorina"s help and the other magicians. With this, my daughter had become rather mighty, and she"s still midway through mid-tier spells, but they already showcase amazing strength, and the best part is that the entire garden is flourishing thanks to her! We had expanded our crops a ton, I mean a TON! We can now totally feed ourselves with all the fruits, vegetables, tubers, and grains that grow all around.
With her help, we are no longer dependent in buying products from other areas or extracting them from the va.s.sal sects, but we"ll still do it because there"s some unique stuff that cannot grow better here, such as most Ice-Attribute Herbs and Plants, only thrive in areas with a lot of snow and cold temperatures, while the divine realm is rather calid and its feels like its always spring. Although we started a plantation in the peak of the mountains where its cold, it is not that much s.p.a.ce. Anyway, with this, we can keep acc.u.mulating more crops and ultimately sell them around or something, which seems quite promisingly amazing. Isn"t my daughter the best in terms of… literally everything? Yes, she is! I am a proud father.
A-Anyways, aside from the Nature and Life Magic, Benladra has also been using more Light Magic, which has healing and enhancing spells too, but she"s more into the offensive side of things. Her devastating attacks can blow away entire countries perhaps, so we are teaching her more precise and smaller attacks to deal with close ranged foes. Her dragon breath attack is quite strong too, and I help her train it once a day by firing it against me. That way I can grow resistance to Heaven element, which is so strong it even makes my scales melt. I think she"s just like her mother, she can damage G.o.ds a bit… even without being one herself. Yet.
And in the other side, there"s Kate. She"s as talented as her sister in many things, and less uncontrollable in some. Due to her calm and attentive nature unlike the cheerful and slightly crazy Benladra, Kate keeps her composure most of the time and learns rather quickly. I"ve been trying to examine what she has for magic, and aside from Ice Magic, she got System Magic. I have no idea what"s that it, and the System itself doesn"t know either no matter how much I appraise Kate… Well, aside from that she got Matter Manipulation, which I"ve helped her train alongiside Ice Magic, my specialty. It has been simply exercises such as giving her something made of steel and asking her to turn it into gold, silver, copper, and so on. Other times I gave her a large bottle with water and I asked her to only turn the water inside into dirt but keep the bottle intact. This way, she can train the precision of her Matter Manipulation to become better. She had failed a few times but she"s getting the hang of it.
Of course, I also ultimately helped her train her powers further, putting her against a small horned rabbit monster. Matter Manipulation can be a one-shot power, as she easily turned the rabbit into stone by touching it, it turned into a solid stone statue without any resistance, the soul of the rabbit flew away after turning into stone… so it definitely died, but it seems that Kate cannot turn non-physical things, so mystical powers such as magic, or souls, are outside of her jurisdiction, as they don"t seem to count as "matter" and are something else? I guess.
