"Eh~! Is that so? How come I didn't know that!" Miral suddenly exclaimed.

"When you were here, did you ever hear about the Undead?" Jack glanced at Miral and asked.

"I don't remember. But I don't think so," Miral replied somewhat dejectedly after thinking carefully for a moment.

"That'll do."

"But if there are no immortals here, then what's wrong with me? Why am I immortal...?"

“You’re not the only undead here,” Lu Ming interrupted Miral’s question, his expression somewhat somber. “In Paris City, there’s an old mage who’s also undead. And your sister…”

"Sister, she too... This can't be! She clearly died of illness. It's impossible for someone not to die..."

"Multi-dimensional space?" Jack suddenly murmured.

"What?" Miral was slightly taken aback, then turned to look at Jack.

"Back in Dorangreg, didn't we often see undead from other worlds? Some of them had already defeated the beings and monsters we were about to fight, while others were killed so many times by the monsters we had already killed that there weren't enough human figures left. How could such a thing happen in a single world?"

After hearing Jack's words, Miral immediately looked dejected. This Miracaissa wasn't her hometown, but rather another Miral's hometown.

"How did my sister die here?"

"I killed that stupid woman."

"You're her boyfriend, right?"

"Ah. Although it was very unpleasant at first, I slowly fell in love with her because of her initiative. It was only in the end that I realized she was just using me. I could have helped her fulfill her wish, we could have been happy together..." Lu Ming stared blankly at the floor, one hand tightly clenching his amber eyes hidden under his clothes.

"What ultimately made you kill her?"

"She fell into the abyss, becoming utterly cruel. As a lord, she allowed a horde of monsters to wreak havoc on her people..."

Is that so?

For a moment, both Lu Ming and Miral fell silent.

Jack and Baggetton watched silently as these two people, who were essentially unrelated yet also like relatives and enemies, changed the subject. They knew that Lu Ming and Miral were in turmoil, but they also knew that things couldn't continue like this. So they changed the subject.

"I heard that the nobles here are going to hold some kind of monster-assisted battle tournament. I'm sure you, as a baron, will also participate, right?"

Knowing Jack's thoughts, Lu Ming stopped dwelling on that unpleasant memory and said instead, "Yes, I'll participate too."

"Well then, let's go join in the fun."

"Yeah! Let's go join the fun. Who knows, I might even meet my love!"

"You're unlikely to run into your lover! But you might actually run into your enemy."

"Jack, you bastard! Will you die if you don't humiliate me?"

"meeting!"

-----------------------------------

After chatting for about two hours, Lu Ming and the other three came out of the study to prepare for lunch.

However, Miral was pulled away by Princess Ella as soon as it overflowed.

Although Lu Ming didn't know what had driven the princess to insist on becoming a mage instead of a warrior, her unwavering determination reminded him of Yusahar, making him less inclined to stop her. It's true that those who pursue magic in this way rarely meet a good end. For example, Logan the Big Hat and Orbeck both suffered the same fate.

"What's wrong?" Jack asked when he saw Lu Ming silently watching Ella's retreating figure as she led Miral to her room.

"It's nothing, let's go." Lu Ming shook his head and took Jack and Baggetton to Miao Na's place, asking her to make them a set of clothes. After all, they couldn't just wear armor and tattered clothes all the time, could they?

Meanwhile, after Princess Ella pulled Miral into her room, she began to inquire about soul magic.

Although Miral only knows one type of soul magic, Princess Ella can still learn how to use the powerful soul arrow.

However, after obtaining the powerful Soul Arrow, a magic from Pihem, Ella became somewhat greedy and asked Miral for strange spells like the Grating Cannon.

“Raster Cannon, I think it’s one of Mr. Lu Ming’s spells, right? I only have one similar one.” After thinking carefully, Miral took out a skill book with a dragon on the cover from his pocket.

"What is this?"

"We found this on a powerful person before we came to Miracaissa. Although it was something that Jack, Bajedon, and I were going to leave for Mr. Lu Ming, Jack and Bajedon also have two identical copies, so I think you should have no problem learning this."

Princess Ella looked at the skill book, took a deep breath, and then accepted it.

The moment I received the skill book!

The skill book transformed into a dragon-shaped wave, slamming Princess Ella to the ground. Although it hurt, at that moment, Princess Ella gained a new way to use a skill.

-----------------------------------

While Miao Na was taking Jack's measurements, Bajedon took out a skill book from his phone and handed it to Lu Ming. After only glancing at the description, Lu Ming asked Bajedon, "Is this Dragon Pulse? Where did you get it?"

"It was dropped by a sinner in the Tower of Sinners. There are three books in total, and the three of us learned them. Unfortunately, apart from Miral, neither Jack nor I could fire the third shot."

"What does a sinner have to do with a dragon?" Lu Ming asked, puzzled, as he pressed the learn button to master the Dragon Wave.

“It has absolutely nothing to do with it. It was just something the sinner took from a few dragon antelopes.” Jack, who was standing there letting Miao Na measure his body, answered Lu Ming’s question.

"Is that so? How powerful was it after you used it?"

"As always, I am the strongest, Buzzardon is second, and although Miral can unleash ten Dragon Pulse attacks, its power is the weakest."

"What!? Miral can unleash ten Dragon Pulse attacks?" Lu Ming was shocked when he heard that Miral could unleash ten Dragon Pulse attacks. He himself couldn't even do that.

"Yes!"

"..." Somewhat speechless, Lu Ming opened the skill bar and began to check the skill description of Dragon Pulse.

"Dragon Pulse: Emits the pulse of a dragon from its mouth to attack others."

Before fire existed, the world consisted only of towering trees and immortal ancient dragons. And this is the roar of the enraged ancient dragons, punishing their enemies!

Rating: 1

Mana cost: 45

Upgrade requires 10 uses.

The skill description sounds impressive, but it's not very useful yet. Although Dragon Pulse is said to be more powerful than Flash Cannon and Dark Pulse, it doesn't have any special effects whatsoever.

It lacks neither the magic resistance reduction from Flash Cannon nor the fear from Dark Pulse. If it weren't for the fact that it's the strongest Dragon-type special attack move besides the two legendary Pokémon's unique moves, I doubt any trainer would let their Pokémon learn it.

"Mira and I have two more books. Who are you planning to give them to?" After getting Miao Na's consent, Jack ran over to Lu Ming without hesitation, leaving Bajedon to take his measurements. However, after learning that Lu Ming had already learned Dragon Pulse, Jack took out an identical skill book, handed it to Lu Ming, and asked at the same time.

"Forget about Mirall's book. Given the nature of the Miracaes, there's a 90% chance that Ella has already tricked her out of hers." Knowing that Miracaes is a place with a strict hierarchy, Lu Ming could almost picture Mirall being taken away by Ella and then teaching Ella all her magic and skill books without reservation.

"What about mine?" After learning that Miral's book might have been stolen, Jack took out his own Dragon Wave skill book and asked Lu Ming.

"I'll give it to Lily. After all, Sham already has a Dark Aura." Taking the skill book, Lu Ming thought for a moment and then said.

"That girl with her eyes closed?"

"Yes."

Just then, not far away, Baggetton, who was removing his armor piece by piece to reveal a somewhat dark but still handsome face, suddenly sighed, "You already have two fiancées. My love is still waiting for me somewhere!"

"Believe me, it won't be long!"

------------------------------------------------

I'm so sick and feeling terrible. I only have one chapter today, which is only 4 words.

Chapter Twenty - Re-entering Paris City

The news that the centaur bandit leader had been blasted to ashes by the scorching sun of the Stink Flower spread throughout the entire territory of Odysseus thanks to Sham's deliberate propagation. Soon, they spontaneously joined the lord's guard, eager to become Lu Ming's bodyguards.

Because Miracaisa had a clear rule that a baronial estate could only have 10 guards and one captain of the guard. If the manpower was insufficient, only militia could be conscripted, and the guard could not be expanded. Therefore, Sham selected ten men from these men to serve as Lu Ming's guards. As for the captain of the guard, he simply chose the most obedient man from a group of people secretly trained by the Hatu family.

The armor for these guards needs to be ordered from Agamemnon, so Lu Ming and Sham don't need to worry about that. However, they'll have to find their own weapons.

Fortunately, the weapons found in [Misty Harbor] and [Forgotten Cage] were enough to equip these people. Five of them used kingdom soldier greatswords, and five used barbarian daggers. The captain of the guard, however, wielded the Cursed Greatsword!

Although these people still need some training, the Warcraft Assist Battle Tournament is about to begin, and Lu Ming and the others don't have time to waste on them, so they let the newly appointed captain of the guard train them.

It was about three days after Jack and his two companions rescued Princess Ella and Kanina, when Lu Ming led the people who had gone to participate in the competition and watch the excitement to Paris City.

It's also worth mentioning that after Lu Ming learned Dragon Pulse, two more skills became available in his skill tree: Water Pulse and Dragon Claw, both requiring two skill points. Furthermore, learning Dragon Pulse unlocked an achievement called "The Young Dragon of Piheim," granting him 5 Dragon skill points.

Needless to say, learn the Level 1 Dragon Claw skill first. Although the side effect is that the nails grow a little longer, the overall impact is not significant.

-----------------------------------

The group, riding on horseback and sitting in a carriage, traveled for about a whole day before finally arriving in Paris.

Unlike the desolation during the reign of Yusahar, Paris City has now recovered to the prosperity it was when Lu Ming first arrived. Perhaps this monster-assisted battle tournament is just a gimmick for the nobles to amuse themselves and to attract merchants to Paris City.

Upon arriving at the city gates of Paris, Lu Ming discovered that the soldiers stationed there were the leaders of the civilians he had encountered in Typhon Forest who were capturing monster cubs.

"How did you become a city guard?" Because they had some acquaintance, Lu Ming chatted with the man while registering Jack and his two companions.

"Because I captured a rare magical beast, the new lord rewarded me with a safe and stable job."

"A new lord? Which family?" Since he had received no news of a new lord taking office in Niflheim, Lu Ming couldn't help but ask.
