Chapter 44 Impossible!!!

Aster opened the door and he saw that Aria was as beautiful as always, her unique platinum blue hair made her stand out, but what made him happy was that she looked happier and well rested as if a great weight had been lifted from her shoulders.

"Good morning, Aria I don't mind you being with your future husband from dawn till dusk but if you come this early in the morning people might notice hehehe".

Aria blushed but she seemed to be in a really good mood today.

"G…good morning, humph who is my future husband how come I don't remember accepting such a thing, whatever I came to ask if… if I can go out with you two today again??":

Aster saw her hopeful expression and he thought she looked adorable, mm I was actually going to ask her to come with me to the bloody forest along with Alice so I guess two birds one stone.

He smiled and got closer to her before giving her a kiss on her cheek.

"Of course, actually from now and onwards how about you spend all your free time with me every day?".

Aria blushed.

"You… you shameless brat taking advantage of me first thing in the morning... but I will consider your offer".

Alice couldn't hold herself back anymore so she hugged Aster's right arm and leaned her head against his shoulder.

"Hi Aria, I see you are as stubborn as always, well don't worry if you don't want to come then I will have my beloved brother all to myself so I guess is a win-win situation ?".

Aria for some reason didn't want to lose against Alice so she hugged Aster's left arm.

"Humph you wish, he invited me to come along and I will go".

Aster was speechless, he sighed in his mind, these two are like ice and fire, he put his arms around their waists and smiled.

"Come on ladies let's not fight this early in the morning, Aria won't you have any problems if you don't stay here to manage the inn?".

Aria seemed to be a bit ashamed… "not really, actually my mother's uncle who is the manager of the inn is the one in charge of the whole operation I just normally spend the day on my office checking some papers and cultivating".

"Well in that case let's go to the Fragrant Food Pavilion to eat breakfast, shall we?".

Alice's eyes lit up; "yes, let's go".

Aria already accepted that Aster was rich enough to not care about the prices so she simply nodded but first changed herself to a disguise at least until she left the inn to not cause any troubles for her uncle.

The three of them left and after a couple of streets Aria changed herself back before they reached the entrance of the restaurant, the hostess saw them coming and she immediately received them with a brilliant smile, after all the kid who was with that young blue haired lady even dared to point a sword to one of the children of the Rein family's patriarch.

"Good morning, dear customers, please follow me to your private room", Aster did not bother answering but Aria smiled back at the hostess as recognition.

Once they entered the room, this time the waiter was a young woman who gave them the menu's and just waited outside of the room until they wanted to order.

Aster and Alice didn't know a lot about the dishes that were on the menu so Aria was the one in charge to order this time, after a moment the dishes were on the table and they looked somewhat familiar Aria ordered that turned out to be really similar to Waffles sweetened with butter and honey and for the drinks this time the election was some fruit's juice which Aster though tasted like a combination between orange and mango.

Of course, he checked to see if there was not something extra added to the food but this time it was all clear and he enjoyed eating something that made him remember earth, he paid for the food and they left the restaurant not without receiving a couple of admiration looks from some of the clients that were present when he destroyed Kail's public image yesterday.

Once they were outside Aster told Aria the plans for the day, they were going to train further in the bloody forest and at noon they will return to the restaurant before going back to the inn.

Aster felt some ill intended gazes pointing at him that probably belonged to the people of the Rein family but he didn't care, now that he has gotten Pollux recognition, he felt that with the proper preparations he could smash a stellar constelation realm cultivator against the ground with the armor manifestation of the paragon body so what could those losers of the earth origin realm possibly do to him.

They started walking to the forest while Aster was wondering if he should buy a carriage or something to not waste time but then he saw Alice and Aria happily seeing the different locals and street sellers that were on Ghaleria and he decided not to do it for now, but a treasure to escape might be needed, he was not arrogant enough to believe that he was invincible not even in this planet and it was better to be safe than sorry.

When they reached the forest Aria guided them to an area where they could fight against beasts on the star formation realm according to Aster's request and started to search for one until Alice saw an iron claw bear that was eating the corpse of another beast and Aster wanted to fight alone against it.

"Just watch from the side's for now ladies, oh and Aria don't prepare yourself for a big surprise", for now Aster decided not to reveal her that he was testing the power of Pollux.

Aster stretched his arms and neck and then a golden flame like aura started surging around him until the figure of an armored arm of about 3.5 meters formed at his side, the iron claw bear felt the danger and started roaring towards him, then charged with all his might trying to crush Aster to death, however this time things turned out different.

The strong sound of an impact and metal colliding echoed through the forest and a large amount of dust rose up blocking Aria and Alice's view, after the dust settled down Aster was standing still with a relaxed face but the bear was nowhere to be seen, there was only a trace of sheer destruction and blood dripping from the fingers of the golden giant arm.

"I... impossible!!!"

Aria was in shock she saw a soul manifestation realm cultivator turn a beast of the star formation realm into an unrecognizable disaster of meat and blood with just an attack!!!

Alice had a proudful expression, after all this power was the result of her love for his brother, she couldn't avoid to brag a bit.

"So little princess of the Ghale family what do you think of my beloved brother current strength?".

Aria was still processing what happened, even she as a star constellation realm couldn't affirm that she would survive to an attack of that caliber in other hands the kid in front of her had the power to kill someone three levels above his cultivation realm it was absurd to the point where she even thought this was a dream.

She did not even bother answering to Alice she got closer to Aster and asked him in a serious voice, "be honest with me was that your strongest attack?".

"What do you think?".

Aria was still too shocked so she asked in a worried voice.

"Please tell me, you might not know but that attack of yours exceeded the capability of a stellar constellation realm cultivator which technically mean you are at the same level of the patriarchs of the four big families!!!"-

Aster saw her being genuinely worried so he smiled while shaking his head.

"Even if that was not the maximum output of that attack, I need some time to use more strength than what you saw right now, besides I can't fly yet so fighting against a constellation realm cultivator is the limit for now, however I have a good idea too counter enemies that can fly but first I need to train.

A stellar axys cultivator could freely move and maneuver on the air unlike a stellar constellation cultivator whose fly was more like gliding in the air without too much control of the direction.

Aria didn't know what was real anymore, she shook her head before answering.

"Seriously what kind of monster are you?

Aster didn't miss the chance to flirt with her.

"The kind that would become your future husband I would say hehehe".

Aria had a complex expression on her face.

"You know that if the big families find about this, they will try to eliminate you to avoid future problems?"

Aster finally understood why she was worried which make him smile, instead of being happy that Aster was strong enough to protect her, Aria was worried because she didn't want him to risk his life.

Such a good girl how would I not want to keep her for myself he thought.

"It will be fine, even if they were to try something they won't be able to hurt me so don't worry, your future husband won't die that easily".

Aria blushed a bit.

"Even if you keep repeating something it doesn't mean it would become true you know?"

Alice didn't like that Aria refused her beloved brother advances so she interfered.

"Yeah, yeah we know you want to become a bitter old woman with a lot of cats".

Aria also replied.

"Says the one who only knows her brother humph".

Alice laughed before answering.

"I don't see anything bad on that besides it's not like I need anyone else".

Aster interfered this time, he took them both by their hands.

"Take it easy ladies after all you both won't be needing anyone else hehehe".

Alice had a triumphant smile on her face while Aria felt her young innocent heart beating faster.

"You shameless brat".
