Chapter 9 CHAPTER 8 : Touching Her Horns

After a few minutes, her mind became clear again, and she shouted, "What are you touching? Remove quickly. "

Her scream brought him back to his senses. Joey looked at her once and dropped his head while feeling guilty.

Seeing that, she felt angrier and had an urge to beat him ( she had a heartache for no reason ). Then, she hit him twice on his forehead with her hairpin and later kept it inside her hair.

" Ow! It hurts. " Joey exclaimed while caressing his forehead. Then after some moments, two horns-like bumps appeared on his forehead.

" Hahaha. Now you get your horns too. You have become very handsome with those horns. From now on, I will make your horns whenever we meet. " She laughed happily.

Joey felt the two bumps in his forehead. And he laughed together with her. They looked at each other and laughed again.

" Alright, boy, since you have dragon's bloodline, I can impart you the dragon's language, dragon lore, and some martial techniques. " She then poked her finger on his forehead.

​ " Dragon lore and language are in your soul sea now. You can learn them later. For now, I will give you two martial skills. One is a movement technique, while the other is an offensive technique. "

" Look carefully. This technique is called ' Dragon soaring the heaven. ' It consists of nine movements.

Then she showed the nine movements slowly. Joey memorized every single minute detail of her action as he had enhanced vision.

" Firstly you have to practice the first three-movement, we call it beginner. After that, when you perfect the beginner movement, you can start training the next three movements, which we call the earthly movement, then lastly the last three movements technique we call it expert level ."

" The nine movement techniques are learned in the group of triplets as they have the same rhythm. While among those beginner movements, earthly movement, and expert level, they have a significant rhythm gap, so we learn them separately. Also, when you perfect all the nine moves, you can combine them and use them to your preference. " She explained. Joey nodded.

" Our time is about to end soon. Look carefully. I will demo the next technique, ' The dragon punch. ' "

Then she started gathering all the surrounding essence qi around her body first. Then, it entered her body and transferred forcefully to her heart, where her dragon root lay. Afterward, the root absorbed the essence qi and transferred it back to her hands. Then she started her melee action with her fists. Joey keenly recorded the whole movement seriously.

" Done. Quickly give me the things I tell you to bring for me," She demanded quickly.

" Oh !" Then Joey brought out bundles of dishes from the space ring his mother presented to him. He knew this day would come, so he prepared a lot of delicious meat from various animals.

She checked the bundles, smiled, said, " Good boy. Bring it again. As my thanks for bringing these delicacies, I have a gift for you. "

She touched her space ring and brought out the complete set of a full sleeve shirt, long pants, and a pair of boots. They were all in blue color and looked very luxurious. She nodded at Joey to take them.

Joey took and carefully looked at them while screaming in his mind, " Does she start having feelings for me? And she even gives these dresses as a way of showing her affection for me. " And a piece of beautiful music started playing in his mind, which was abruptly ended by a shrill shout from her.

" Stop spacing out! Put a drop of blood on each of them ."

Joey took out a knife from his waist then cut his palm. He squished his palm, making the blood fall on each of them. Suddenly, the set of clothes and the pair of boots lit up and quickly moved toward him, vanishing into his body.

" Use your dragon root in your heart to control them. They are made from a dragon's scale and can be used only by those with dragon bloodlines. They have a solid defensive property and can change their weight to your preference. Oh, you can keep it at 500 kg weight for now. "

Joey used his dragon root to control them and set the weight to 500 kg weight exactly, and suddenly he felt the weight.

" Pretty cool, Nah! Ok, times up, goodbye. "

Then she waved her hand, and Joey teleported back to his room which was under his bed. He lifted it. And at the same time, he heard a man's voice.

"So, you are better now. I am starting to worry about your health. Sorry, I must visit you sooner. And you are really into this extreme physical training ."Then a man came inside his room.

" Your majesty, you are here. I know that you are very busy. Thanks for visiting me here. " Then, Joey kneeled on the ground. He felt very heavy, so he adjusted to 300 kg weight using his dragon root again.

" Alright, stand up. We can skip that formality inside. You better greet me as 'father' when we are alone. " Tang Zimo picked him up and touched his arm while feeling his pulse.

" Good, you are completely healthy now. Oh, and you are now in the blood purification realm. " Then he left his hand.

" Also, you are into this intense physical training? " Zimo asked.

" Yes, father. Recently, I started to like training in the extreme physical method. " Joey replied.

Tang Zimo touched the space ring and brought out a ragged book, and gave it to Joey.

" You can practice it. It is the physical cultivation technique your grandfather practiced. I can't practice it so you can try your luck later. Oh, and one thing, keep that book a secret only between us. " Tang Zimo explained to him.

" Thanks, father. " Joey said. He likes to practice this technique as of now since he doesn't have any physical training-based technique.

" I come to tell you something. You must go to the northern fort tomorrow. What do you think? " Tang Zimo said.

" Father, I will follow your order. But my mom," He replied politely.

" Good son, worry not for your mother. I am relieved now. Otherwise, you know your elder sister's personality, she will come here and may even cause big trouble here in the palace. " Zimo said while exhaling his breath of relief.

Joey's predecessor always saw his father as a bold, calm, and wise model. But, seeing him like this today, he became astonished and wants to laugh out loud.
