[Day 157]
I wanted to make of this time the most out of it, so I had thought about using these two and a half first days to train more, so this way, aside from the week of preparation, we get these extra days.
Maybe it was too bold of me? I kept them waiting a bit too much, it might seem.
I used this week to sneak into the Dungeon at night with large parties to farm for Cores.
I didn't even pay for it, none for this week, we just sneaked inside because the dungeon belongs to us.
We went at night, of course, I utilized a combination of Illusion Spells such as Illusion Veil, Shadow Illusion, Camouflaging Illusion, and then used the Shadow Manipulation and Shadow Sneak Skills I got from the Shadow Crows Mana Cores, shrouding, and combining myself with the shadow of the night, I entered the entire dungeon undetected alongside a big group of my allies, which I put inside of my dreams through the Dreamscape Space Spell, and then took them out when we were inside. Pretty easy, to tell you the truth.
It seems that aside from us, barely anyone else visited the Dungeon due to the Rank 3 Elders being lazy scary cats and those eager to explore were too weak to enter, so very few Rank 3 entered through the week.
Due to that, every night we went there the entire dungeon was overflowing with tasty monsters, so we slaughtered them all to our heart's content, got their corpses, picked up other materials, and more for three days.
With these resources I managed to make more Cultivation Potions and got Benladann almost into Rank 4, although she still needed a bit more, meanwhile, the majority got into Rank 2 now, and some talented ones already crossed into Rank 3.
Fufu… I had a specular plan.
I was going to use Illusion Magic to cover up their high-ranked Mana Auras and make them seem weaker, so the sect sends us comparably weaker yet talented fighters against them, this way, they can decimate their foes as fast as possible and without showing off much power.
Yeah, we were not about making awesome fights with blood-pumping action, we were all about efficiency in here, and how to efficiently show our might while saving our techniques, so they don't try to make up counters for us later.
It was already the third day when we felt a bit more prepared, so I decided to go down with Benladann, Yuki, Tisha, and Pekora, just to rub on their faces that I have other race members in my sect that aren't salves, heh.
Ah, of course, I also had a steamy morning with my dear Benladann. The stronger she grew the harder her grip became too, which made our experience in bed more pleasuring…
A-Anyways, I shouldn't get too far in that topic, moving on, we moved through the streets mounting on our giant Rank 3 Ice Dragon Wolf, Frost, with my two crows at each side of my vast shoulders. They learned how to shrink or enlarge their size, by the way, so they made themselves into one-meter-size, enough to fit in my vast ice giant shoulders.
We entered the sect's palace, I found all the Elders discussing with the Sect Master, I heard a few things, they seemed to be talking about me and that I was a coward or something.
"Sorry for coming late, I had many things I needed to do first, dear Elders," I said, as I stepped in, I left Frost outside, of course, but my two crows remained at my side, glaring down at the Elders while unleashing their Rank 3 Mana Core Auras, I did the same, camouflaging my Rank 4 Mana and only using Rank 3 Mana.
My entrance seemed to be amazing because everyone stared at me with eyes wide open, they seemed to not think I would come at all.
"Drake… So you've come." Said the Sect Master. This was the first time I met him in person.
"Hello, you must be Lord Ice Moon, right? It is good to see you."
I spoke casually with him, showing no respect.
"S-Such insolence! Speak with good manners before the Sect master!"
"And you dare come so late? We thought you had truly chickened out, Drake!"
"Well, now that you're here, sit down."
"Then I will sit," I said, without thanking them.
All these little bits of insolence triggered these meticulously retarded people like crazy, merely not telling them "thank you for the seat" made them rage in anger.
Are you kidding me? These retards are truly like in the novels, holy shit. I feel like I just went into a novel now and I am experiencing what feels like to be the main character, hahaha!
"Insolence again… How dare he not thank for the seat?"
"Did your mother never taught you how to be polite?"
"My mother? She only taught me to treat nice those that deserve it."
Everyone fell silent.
Their foreheads were popping with veins, they were all furious!
Yes, get angrier please, this is ridiculously hilarious.
"Well, your mother was a terrible figure!"
"Indeed, what kind of woman raised such a man?"
The Elders kept bullying me while the Lord Ice Moon stayed silent, I believe he was testing my resolve.
"One that can beat you with a single punch, wan to try?"
"I-INSOLENT!"
"Y-YOU DARE…!"
"Sect Master! S-Say something!"
Almost every Elder suddenly showed me expressions as if they had eaten a bitter bug.
Pppffff… Hahaha! Look at that guy! I am actually holding my laughter so hard.
However, Benladann put her hands over my shoulder and tried to calm me down.
"Dear, please calm down… We came here peacefully, remember? Y-You said it." Said Benladann.
Ah, right… I went off my horse for a bit, I guess I wanted to tease them a bit more.
"Drake, I will pretend as if what had occurred just now never happened. Now, did you came to accept the request to participate in our tournament, or just to mock my Elders?" he asked.
"I accept, of course! We'll beat all their asses." I said.
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
Oops, did I went too far?
