Chapter 131 131 – Last Training [1]

The clash of two people had shaken the Dragon King Castle once again.

A loud boom rang each time they clashed. The people in the Castle had gotten used to it after they had done it for a few days already.

Without much saying, the one who created such a scene was Kai and Panlong. They had a spar every day for the last week, and Kai was finally able to hit Panlong and fight him on the same level.

"Hahaha! That's it, my lord! You've done very great!"

After sparring, they sat on the bench on the side of the training ground while drinking water from the fountain waterfall at the deepest part of the Castle.

Kai found out that this water had so much Nature power in it that it served like an energy drink from the modern world. However, this drink also recovered energy, which was way better than an energy drink.

"This is already your last day, eh? You and our King will go to the outside world to attend the Devils' Ball Party in the Underworld. I still think the name should be Devil's Banquet. That sounded better."

Panlong drank the water in one go and grinned widely.

Indeed, Ao had asked Kai to go with her to the Devils' Ball Party. She said it was something similar to the Oni Festival if he knew about it. An event for Supernatural Races to forge their bond and peace.

The event would be held in the Underworld, where Devils lived, just like the special barrier that surrounded Oni Village and this Dragon King Castle.

Ao also mentioned that he could bring Amber and Ibaraki as he had the power to storm into any place without any invitation. Besides, the Queen of Succubus had a contract with Abe no Seimei before, so she would welcome Kai with open arms.

Also, he heard that some Onmyouji and Shaman would also get invited. Probably, he would be able to meet someone from the Ashiya Family in the party, something he looked forward to. He wanted to see how his big family honestly felt about him.

"It's a shame that we must stop for now when you can already stay on the same ground as me, though. Call me anytime you need help, my lord. This Panlong will help you if it's about a fight."

"Yeah. I am counting on you, Panlong. But I think there won't be a situation where I need to call you because I can deal with it myself."

"Hahahaha! That's true! We might not have a chance to show ourselves, but… If there is a war, just call us, my lord."

"I will." Kai nodded at Panlong's words and slowly sipped his water away.

He wouldn't say he didn't need help after hearing what happened when he fought the Boogeymen. It seemed like Romania was attacked by many Jack-o'-lanterns and Boogeymen's fake bodies, just like what he had expected.

So every ally he could get would be welcome.

"Well, I need to go now, Panlong. It's been a fun week. I've learned a lot from you." Kai rose from his seat and put the glass on the bench. It would be picked up by the servants later.

"This Panlong also had a good time, my lord." Panlong rose from his seat and extended his hand for a handshake. "I hope you can visit often, although I doubt that as I know you have a lot to do. Hahahaha."

Kai smiled at the friendly old man. He really looked like his grandfather, just minus the curses and with an additional spirit.

"I will. Ao will stay in this Castle after we return from the Devils' Ball Party, so I need to visit often to see her."

"Hahahaha! That's true!"

Inside the Dragon King's bedroom, Ao was looking at her reflection in the mirror.

She changed her style slightly, wearing modern clothes instead of her normal, regal ones. She thought there was a need to blend in with modern people when she was in the outside world. Her previous clothes stood out too much.

Currently, she was wearing a blue qipao similar to Qianlong with a deep slit on her skirt. This type was a sleeveless one, and her cleavage was exposed slightly. There was no gaudy decoration and only a golden dragon's pattern that reached from her knee to her chest area.

"Does this look good on this lady? That Phoenix wore something like this too. My dear husband must like clothes like this, but… This lady doesn't know whether it fits her or not."

Ao was anxious, something she had never felt before. She didn't want Kai to look at her when she wasn't in her best condition. In front of Kai, she wanted to look beautiful. To look perfect and without any flow.

"Should I change to a western dress? The dear husband lived in the US, so he might like a western dress more than this."

Saying so, Ao rose from her seat and went to the closet. She opened it and took out a halter neck blue dress. The skirt was shorter than the qipao she wore, but she didn't mind. She began undressing and changed into the dress.

It looked good on her. Her twin-tailed hair fell to the side, and she looked at her reflection in the mirror once again.

The dress was more open and with a shorter skirt that showed her smooth thighs. The cleavage area was also exposed more than in the previous dress. She looked stunning.

"T-This is…" Ao muttered while blushing slightly at her reflection. "This lady can't wear this in public! Although it looks great, it will be reserved for my dear husband. Yes, I will wear this for now because we will do the last training."

She had planned to find something to wear to the Devils' Ball Party to make her look good beside Kai. She liked this dress, although it was a lot open. This should only be worn by Devils to seduce men, not the Dragon King. Ao only wanted to seduce Kai and not anyone else.

So this dress couldn't be used. Maybe she needed to get a similar dress that covered more skin. Still...

Ao smiled widely, hiding her blush with her hands. "Fufufu, I hope my dear husband loves to see this lady in this. It has been a week since then. I am looking forward to his last training~."

After saying goodbye to Panlong, Kai returned to the bedroom where Ao was waiting for him.

There was one thing he needed to do before going back to the outside world, and that was to perfect his control.

Just a little bit, and he would achieve the level that Ao give an example of. He wondered what kind of last training he needed to do. Ao told him that it would be special.

"I wonder what she is talking about, keeping it a secret." He muttered as he arrived in front of the bedroom. They had been sleeping, or rather, staying together. So he didn't knock on the door and just opened it.

"I am here, Ao." He announced his greeting but froze right after he closed the door behind him. He looked at Ao, looking different from before.

"Welcome, my dear." The Dragon King greeted him with a smile as she turned to him. "How do I look?" She asked, showing her new dress to him.

"It's beautiful." He replied, approaching her. There was no need to say more. That special thing Ao talked about, he understood it just by looking at her dress.

He stopped in front of Ao and smiled widely. "You look gorgeous."

"Fufufu. Thank you." She giggled happily as she draped her arms around Kai's neck. Then she whispered seductively. "Shall we begin the last training?"
