You are all my wings!

At this moment, Margaret spoke up, saying:

"After the War of the Gods of Eden ended, the gods fell, countless lands were shattered and scattered, and at the same time, a super flood fell from the sky, submerging countless lands and destroying countless lives. The intelligent species almost completely disappeared. It was not until the three gods who barely survived the War of the Gods successfully revived that the trend of the extinction of the intelligent species was reversed."

Iris, unashamed to ask, said, "Then why do you say we still belong to the Flood Era?"

"Because the super flood hasn't disappeared yet. The infinite sea that envelops our continent has four extreme points, and at each extreme point, surging floodwaters still fall from the endless sky and crash into the sea, creating a super abyss. So our continent of Auster can also be described as a super-giant isolated island."

The previous answer to Iris was from Leon, who had finished digesting the knowledge of the advancement and stood up.

With the support of five modes, the digestion speed is extremely fast.

He moved closer to Iris, smiled, and patted her head, saying:

“Iris, although you are very talented, you really need to change your habit of wanting to learn about things other than magic. Otherwise, you will definitely not be able to comprehend those magical images involving ancient gods in the future.”

Iris blushed slightly, but stubbornly insisted, "I can also learn magic that doesn't involve mythological imagery!"

Machiru chuckled: "Then you'll basically have no chance of getting magic at the demigod level or above."

Magical imagery includes elements similar to physics and chemistry, as well as imagery based on mythology.

Among them, the essence of holy magic appears to be light, but it actually utilizes the afterglow of divine light left behind by the ancient gods in the world.

Because the imagery draws inspiration from mythology, it is inherently powerful and possesses immense strength.

Mythological imagery is generally incredibly powerful, possessing a kind of conceptual, extraordinary efficacy.

On average, 30% of the magical imagery in most demigod-level spells involves ancient mythology.

Even among the four elements of magic, there are some schools that can slightly borrow from the divine elements of earth, water, wind, and fire to enhance the power of their magic.

Even Leon, who had perfectly completed the four-part series in his previous life, still hadn't figured out how many different genres existed in this world; it was truly vast and profound.

Lyon laughed and said, "If you, Iris, are planning to take the path of learning without mythological imagery, that's fine too. Although you'll give up the chance to gain immense power in a short time, it also offers more scalability and possibilities. You can try to create demigod-level magic that doesn't require mythological imagery. However, this path is more suitable for Terena. If you start now, all I can say is that you still have a long way to go."

After hesitating for a while, Iris said, "Then I can study with little Terena! I'm just not good at theory, but I'm very good at practical skills!"

[Event and affinity requirements met, triggering Iris's hidden main quest "The One Who Holds the Power of Light"]

[Mission Details: Help Iris master the theory of light magic and thereby awaken the power of light lost in the center of the Holy Land, assisting her in wielding it.]

[Task Rewards: Spirit Power +100, Magic Power +100; God-level Light Magic, Five Cosmic Divine Light; Natural Affinity for Light Elements]

Huh, I've triggered Iris's hidden main quest.

Lyon didn't even have time to be surprised.

Iris smiled and moved closer to Terena, a hint of malice showing on her beautiful and delicate face, and reached out to touch Terena.

"Isn't that right, little Terena? I can study with you too."

She didn't know much about Terena's talent, and her getting so close was more about taking the opportunity to pinch Terena's chubby, pink cheeks.

Terena took two steps back in disgust, shielding Leon in front of her.

Iris could only pout again, glaring angrily at Leon.

“Iris, this little girl is clearly only close to Lyon, you have no chance.”

Machiru burst into laughter. Although she looked no older than Terena by more than four or five years, her mindset was naturally completely different.

The others also felt relaxed, and smiles appeared on their faces, filling the air with a cheerful atmosphere.

Clearly, Lyon's historic advancement gave the women a powerful boost of confidence, clearing away the dark clouds of demonic invasion.

Camille looked at Leon eagerly:

How much of an overall improvement is there after the upgrade?

Lyon nodded slightly and said:

"I'm not sure how strong I really am, Miss Camille. How about we have a spar?"

Camille's crimson pupils lit up slightly:

"Very good, you have a good eye, knowing to come to me for a test of your skills right away."

Just how strong is the first person in history to use a powerful seventh-tier secret treasure to advance to the fifth tier?

How much of your strength, characteristics, and enhancements can you unleash?

Camille was quite looking forward to it.

The women were also curious, and since they needed a break after exercising, they gathered in twos and threes to watch.

Iris said enviously, "Leon's advancement is so fast. When I first met him, he was only at level two, but now he's at the same level as me, and he's accomplished such a great feat."

Although she said that, there was a hint of pride in her tone, and her emerald yellow pupils sparkled. My man is amazing!

Meanwhile, Maggie stared thoughtfully at Camille, thinking to herself, "Why does this woman's gaze toward Leon seem increasingly strange?"

I used to hate it, but now I admire it more, and within that admiration, there seems to be a suppression of certain... desires?

Ophim Marceau was also somewhat displeased. Why didn't Lyon want to test his skills with me first, but instead wanted to find Camille?

Sigh, it's still not strong enough.

She thought to herself, "Leon's strength has improved so quickly, I also need to accumulate the necessary conditions as soon as possible to break into the legendary ranks."

He had already accomplished his mission ahead of schedule and mastered three legendary combat techniques.

So, the next step is to practice epic-level combat skills, like Leon, to use epic-level items across ranks to advance to legendary!

Otherwise, if one day Lyon's strength completely crushes me, wouldn't I not be able to have Lyon all to myself, and would I have to accept the humiliation of being two against one like Iris Magiru?

No, absolutely not!

She secretly made up her mind.

Tanya tugged at Terena's sleeve and asked, "Terena, Terena, Camille is at the peak of the seventh rank, while big brother has just entered the fifth rank. Why does Camille seem so excited?"

Among all the women, besides Langley's family, the person Taenia was closest to was naturally Camille, who was also a dragon.

Of course, she didn't know that Camille was a human who had reverted to a dragon-human form, and was essentially human, unlike her.

Moreover, Camille seemed rather fierce towards her, so Taynia was slightly afraid of Camille.

"Because Lyon is the most special."

Terena's eyes were vacant, as if she saw Lyon (who lived in an old Western-style house) when they first met, looking somewhat poor.

……

Before the battle began, Lyon checked his stats.

【主要属性：窥命力40/神圣能量容纳量7/精神力79/生命力141/魔力量409/体力210/力量191/敏捷211】

[Talent: Holy Body (Development Level 4%)]

[Core Class Skill: Shadow Leap Ascends to Void Shadow Leap]

[Effect: Originally, one needed to use the ground to leap; now, one can leap using the illusion of space.]

Spirit +12, Vitality +20, Magic +30, Stamina +40, Strength +38, Agility +45

Wow, a bumper harvest!

After the upgrade, its magic power reached eight times that of the fifth rank, which is two and a half times that of a powerful and long-lived species of the same rank.

Physical strength and agility remain more than four times that of the previous rank, while strength is slightly less than four times that of the previous rank, but still close.

A quick calculation shows that his Strength, Constitution, and Agility are now significantly stronger than those of the Long-lived Species' Powerful Rank 6. The gap between him and Camille's Strength, Constitution, and Agility is now only about 40 points on average, not as large as before.

My agility has even reached the threshold of the legendary warrior class (when you first enter the legendary class, your stamina and agility are close to three times the limit, while for short-lived powerful warriors it is four times, and for long-lived powerful warriors it is five times)!

Then there are the attributes and class bonuses, although he already had a general idea of ​​the improvement from the knowledge of advancement.

But we still need to do actual testing to know exactly how well we can do it.

So, Lyon made a grasping motion with his hand, and a pitch-black shadow, seemingly capable of absorbing all the light around it, quietly condensed and transformed into a hard longsword.

The blade is sharp but without luster.

Thin as a cicada's wing, yet exceptionally tough.

If he wanted, he could even apply the Shadowless property to this sword right now, turning it into a truly invisible and shadowless sword.

Even without enhancing the Shadowless property, the light could not be reflected when the Shadow Sword was swung, thus causing it to vanish without a trace as soon as it was swung.

This reminded him of the famous sword from his past life: Chengying.

The sword's shadow appears at dawn and dusk; its blade is invisible yet it can cut objects silently.

Ahead, Camille squinted as she examined the property she was testing in her hand, then suddenly spoke:

"Your shadow ability is quite strong. With this advantage, combined with your previous sixth-tier combat skill, you might have a chance to break through my defenses. In that case, I will add my ability and fight you."

Lyon nodded: "I'm fine."

Based on his previous battle and his experience fighting Camille multiple times in his past life, he now has a way to defeat Camille without using the Poems after his advancement.

Camille said, "Very well, this time I won't hold back. I'll use everything I can, except the poems. Are you ready?"

Lyon shook his head and said, "Lies! Miss Camille, it seems you still want to hold back. This time, I hope you will truly use your full strength, instead of holding back most of your power as before. Next is the battle with the demons. I want to truly understand how much I can achieve when facing a peak legend."

He instantly noticed that Camille's eyes flickered slightly when she said, "I won't hold back anymore."

Camille was somewhat surprised; she had indeed intended to hold back.

"After all, you're only at the fifth rank."

Lyon hesitated, realizing from Camille's tone that she would likely still hold back.

She's definitely not worried about herself; rather, the level of affection she has for him hasn't reached that point yet. Therefore, her perception of him is still rather neutral. Even with the "first in history" buff, her judgment of him still instinctively tends towards negativity. For her, the person she can approach without reservation is the one she truly respects.

Suddenly, Lyon felt a slight stirring in his heart.

The reason he was unable to overcome Camille's prejudice was because he suspected Camille would be killed by him in the future.

So, what if we solve this problem?

If the problem is not resolved in time and is merely a temporary bluff, Camille and I will inevitably be unable to act in unison in the future, which may lead to oversights in the plan and even risk causing the collapse of the world-saving strategy.

She is, after all, familiar with the future.

Thinking of this, Lyon deliberately shook his head and sighed:

"It's a pity I forgot to make a bet with Miss Camille about me."

The bet between the two only concerns Iris, Magirou, and Fiorentina, and does not involve other female characters who have not yet been involved in any intimate relationships.

Camille narrowed her eyes, a subtle glint flashing in her crimson pupils:

"What, you want to gamble again?"

Lyon laughed:

"Yes, I want to make a new bet with you. If I can defeat Miss Camille without using the Poems if I go all out, then you have to grant me one request."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the onlookers shifted slightly.

Iris, in particular, immediately recalled the scene of her first meeting with Leon.

For a hundred gold coins, he accepted Lyon's bet, and from that moment on, his life was completely changed...

Is Lyon, insatiable with women, now looking to make a move on this legendary dragon girl?

Machiru calmly took some alchemical solution from the alchemy bottle, tasted it, and confirmed whether her recent small experiment had been successful.

She thought to herself that Leon would definitely not be interested in this muscular woman, even though she was very beautiful and had a wild beauty, but her style was completely different from the ones he liked (Maquilu was referring to the women Leon had slept with).

Camille remained noncommittal; she didn't believe she would be defeated by Leon.

Even without using the poems, he could easily defeat a seventh-tier monster with his bare hands.

But she was indeed somewhat curious about Lyon's new request at this moment.

Then he asked:

"any request?"

Lyon smiled slightly: "The requirements are simple. If I win, you will become my contract slave."

puff.

Machiru, who was calmly watching, spat out the alchemical water in her mouth. Wasn't she once Lyon's contract slave?

Although both of them now tacitly agree not to bring it up again.
