Chapter 307 - Cap 306: Moros Kingdom

It's been a week and a half, during that time I went back to my training to learn how to fly better during the morning, during the afternoon I did various tasks as village leader, during the night I trained my Aura control techniques that Sophia taught me. 

During that time I synthesized some skills and this was the result. 

• [ Weapon Technique: 1 ] --> This skill is the result of the synthesis of all Weapon Technique skills.

• [ Eclipse King's Aura: 1 ] --> This skill is the result of synthesizing all Aura skills, with the exception of unique skills. 

[ Weapons Technique: 1 ] skill was a perfect match with [ Weapon Master ] skill, it seems I can use any weapon now, the only skills I didn't synthesize were my chaos lord arts, my own martial arts, and weapons techniques I created. 

The result of the synthesis of Aura's abilities was a pain that I could not bear, it was not a pain in the body, it was a pain that was deeper and more unbearable, many times I thought I was going to go crazy, but after the first synthesis, I realized that my body was not being hurt, so this time I didn't need anyone's help and I was alone while I did these syntheses. 

The pain lasted more than an hour, but so as not to disturb anyone I put up sound barriers so no one could hear my screams. 

The Goddess Selene said that I could fuse Auras without sustaining injury as long as I endured the pain, but she never said how excruciating this pain would be, many times I wondered why I was doing this, but in the end, I came to the conclusion that I was curious, maybe the biggest flaw I have is my curiosity that leads me to do things I wouldn't normally do, in short, I'm an idiot. 

It was that curiosity that made me do things in my previous life that a normal kid would never try to do, it was that curiosity that made me start in the video game industry, it was that curiosity that made me do such thorough research for my games and it was that curiosity that made me persevere as I drifted in and out of the coma until I was able to finish that last game I created just to see the end result. 

Just now I was curious about the result of these syntheses, as I already know that I am safe as long as I endure the pain, I wanted to know the result of what I was doing, in addition to making me stronger. 

I'm someone who leads a lot of people now, I need to be strong to protect everyone, it would also be nice if I get strong Aura skills to subdue girls when they come after me, I already tried to use my Auras to ward them off, but it seems like they only get stronger using my Auras which only made them last for a longer period of time. 

During these two and a half weeks, Diana and Ibuki came to me every night, but unlike the first time it only lasted half the time before which was easier in Ibuki's case, but Diana was still very wild and I always ended up full of scratch marks. 

Kira was the most controlled and only looked for me every three days, she was also much more affectionate than the first time, it seems Freya was right in saying that was just because she was holding back for a long time. 

But the one that gave me the most trouble was Érica, she was getting more and more perverted, she grabbed me every time I got distracted, in addition, she seemed to last longer and longer than the others. 

I was getting overwhelmed but still managed to balance everything out somehow, but one thing that caught my attention was that even my new Aura skill which had become a unique skill also had no effect on girls, they just got more energy and your physical stats increase a lot. 

One thing I've been doing is asking Irius to teach me more about his blade of light, blade of shadow, and blade of judgment skills and abilities. 

I already have the blade of light skill, but I acquired this skill by drinking Irius' blood when I met him, I only understood after learning from him that I had no control over the skill, I was using this skill automatically when I could have used it my Affinity with the Light element to increase or decrease the power of this attack. 

Irius taught me that all these blade skills have the same way of learning and using. 

All I need is to use my energy concentrating everything on the sword blade while using my elemental Affinity to merge the element into this energy, if I am able to do that I can always control the size and strength of this attack giving more control over how I use it in combat. 

This technique can be used to learn blade-type abilities from all elements, Irius used this technique to learn the blade of judgment while merging two elements into his blade. 

After days of training, I managed to understand how Iruis did it and I realized that my light blade attacks were almost three times stronger, I still haven't learned the other two blade skills I wanted, but now it's just a matter of training and time until getting. 

Irius said that in my case it was easy to learn because I have skills that help me learn faster as a [ Weapon Master ] and because I already have the blade of light skill it was easier for me to understand how it works. 

Irius was frustrated that it took him two years of training to learn how to do this while I only needed less than two weeks. 

---------- 

This time of a week and a half was very busy, also by our reckoning we should already be close to reaching the port of the capital city of Moros, which has the same name as his Kingdom. 

We passed by the other port that Nira and Ivan talked about, but I didn't even try to stop there, on the way we saw many ships going to that port, but we ignored them all. 

Now I'm in the hall of the mansion where the meeting table has been set up again, my entire group is present as well as Sapphire who is the leader of the council. 

"We've been here for over an hour, after all, we've discussed I think it's decided, right?"  (I) 

"Yes, unfortunately, people from the village cannot appear in this town or they will be attacked, so I think the people we decided on are fine."  (Sapphire) 

"I would like to go, but if there are any High Priests of any religion they will be able to see through my spectral body."  (Ivan) 

"So the people leaving the Dungeon will be me, Kira, Diana, Nix, Vanessa, Samira, Leo, Freya, Irius, Elsaris, Jade, Beatriz and Jay" (Érica) 

"I think it's just us and the master."  (Jade) 

"According to the maps, we are already in the territory of the Moros Kingdom, this Kingdom only has the capital, which is the port city, and the entire territory is filled with villages."  (I) 

"That means that all the nobles of this Realm will be in the port city."  (I) 

"What do you know about this Kingdom, Ivan?"  (I) 

"The Moros Kingdom and the Harnes Kingdom are the two main commercial Kingdoms among the smaller Kingdoms, among them, the Moros Kingdom has a culture where money speaks louder."  (Ivan) 

"All nobles are merchants, in addition, the royal family treats the Kingdom as a large commercial enterprise, so if you don't have a job and don't pay taxes you will be treated as a debt slave when it is sold the money will be given to the government in tax place."  (Ivan) 

"So money is all that matters in this Kingdom."  (I) 

"So I can only imagine that there are a lot of corrupt people there."  (I) 

"It's actually the opposite, the Kingdom has strong business rules to prevent corruption, they do it to keep a clean name and not alienate future business partners."  (Ivan) 

"But what Ivan is not telling you is that they also do business with the black market, they are an important business partner that we use to smuggle various things, one of the nobles of this realm is the leader of the black market branch of this realm."  (Elsaris) 

"Looks like this Realm isn't as simple as I thought it would be."  (I) 

"There is no such thing as a simple Kingdom, master."  (Ivan) 

"All Realms have their own culture, the way of this Realm makes it impossible for it to grow and prosper in the future, but it also consolidated this Realm as something necessary for other small Realms."  (Ivan) 

"Why? I understand that trade is important between nations, but why would this Kingdom be important?"  (I) 

"They are used as intermediaries between the various Realms, this keeps Realms from being able to sell and buy goods indirectly without knowing who the original supplier is or who the ultimate buyer is."  (Ivan) 

"Wouldn't that be bad? The goods would be more expensive, it would be better to buy directly from the Kingdom of origin."  (I) 

"The small Kingdoms have a lot of conflict with each other, so there is a lot of mistrust or even hatred between many Kingdoms, all of which make it impossible to make direct trade routes between the smaller Kingdoms."  (Érica) 

"But if you sell and buy from a Realm like this indirectly, then you don't need to know who the other party is, it also ensures that the only trading partner you need is this one, the other Realms don't matter anymore."  (Érica) 

"Many of these small Realms start wars to conquer other small Realms in an attempt to become a medium-sized Realm and become more prosperous, so they don't want to have treaties with many Realms that prevent them from starting a war."  (Ivan) 

It seems that the situation between the smaller Realms is complex, but I don't mind that, I don't plan on staying in this Realm much. 

Sigh 

"None of that matters, but I'm glad to have an overview of the situation in this Moros Kingdom, thanks for the information."  (I)
