Chapter 202 Returning To Zartia

Aster looked at Prasil one more time before they entered the spaceship, although the notice of their victory and his name spread all over Luonto, he never got news of Kail, so he was either death or maybe he never arrived at Prasil.

In any case he couldn't do anything but giving a description of him to Sylas, in case he appeared after they left.

Lilia's spaceship was far larger than the ones that existed in Prasil, although on the outside it had a military facade, the insides were completely different, instead of a spaceship it looked quite comfortable like a pleasure cruise.

Five floors with different themes, the first one looked like an aquatic park, with a large pool and other attractions here and there, the second one was completely dedicated to training, the third one was for meditation, there was a two-sided window which let those inside look at the outside of the spaceship.

Th fourth was specially attracting for Aster, it consisted in a floor dedicated to rune mastering and alchemy, there were several materials and other high leveled spirit treasures, like cauldrons, furnaces, anvils and the list continued.

p The last floor was the living area, there were a lot of doors each one conducing to a private room.

Lilia smiled seeing the surprised expression on the face of everyone, the only exceptions were Eris and Mylene which had seen bigger spaceships before, but that didn't mean they despised this one.

Both of them were pleased seeing all the floor dedicated to rune mastering and alchemy, apparently Lilia had prepared everything beforehand for her son's studies.

"What do you think darling, I was rewarded this spaceship as my treasure when I entered the heavenly realms, originally, I didn't really used it though, but I was able to safely travel through a lot of star clusters with it, of course I modified the insides to my liking along the way".

Aster nodded, it was really impressive, even in a world which wasn't science oriented, the technology advanced, he saw some kind of golems cleaning and doing other chores here and there.

"Those are spirit dolls, a combination of rune mastering and spirit forging, they basically get a task assigned and do it at a certain time over and over again".

"Mom, doesn't this thing consume a lot of spirit jades just by being activated?".

Lilia shook her head.

"No, there are spirit formations on the outer shell of the spaceship which gather the spirit energy of the space and store it for usage, that being said, there is also a reserve of spirit jades just in case".

"A marvel of engineering", thought Aster.

They all went to the captain's cabin.

"Your turn Eris, open the portal", said Lilia as she sat in front of a control panel.

Eris nodded, she waved her hand and a large portal opened, Lilia set the direction and the spaceship entered the portal, the insides where the grayish normal tone of the dimensional tunnel which Aster has previously seen before.

Now all they had to do is wait until the travel through the dimensional tunnel was over, after their previous experience in the outer space, almost everyone had something to think about, so they left the captain's cabin and went straight to the meditation floor.

While the girls sat down and revived their inspirations, Sarina took out the manual left by Aurelian and opened it on a specific page, she doubted for a moment but then remembered Aster's previous words, "If you need something just say it".

"Lilia, do you by any chance have blood of a spirit beast which is oriented to the wind affinity… according to this I need one liter of the blood of a spirit beast which is at the peak of the next cultivation division I'm currently at".

Lilia gave the page a quick read and then nodded, before she looked into her ring, but after a couple of seconds she could only sigh, unlike her friend which was an alchemist she wasn't too fond of collecting things like that, besides her attribute wasn't wind so she didn't have things specifically related to it.

"Sorry, I only have the blood of a gale hawk at the void manipulation realm, in my spatial ring… but the sect we will be joining is affiliated to force on equal standing with the Drage family, so we should be able to find what you need there".

Sarina nodded but she couldn't hide the slight disappoint feeling on her eyes, Aster hugged her from behind and gently kissed her neck as he whispered at her.

"I know you are suppressing your advance, but there is no need for that, once we arrive at the Azure sky planet, just let it happen, according to Aurelian's manual if you use the blood later it won't change a thing, in fact it's better like that, because you will use the one of a heavenly conqueror magic beast instead".

"But… getting the blood of a heavenly conqueror spirit beast will be really hard", she said in a slightly worried voice.

Aster smiled.

"Let me worry about that, I want to give only the best to my girls, okay?"

"Mm ?", Sarina made a cute happy sound, Aster wanted to spoil her so why should she refuse, if he said he would do it, then she was sure he would fulfill his promise.

Of course, Aster wasn't just saying it in a whim, if he was joining a sect, he will aim to be the best, so that the sect would have no option but to give him all the resources he wanted, worst case scenario using the connections of the sect he will pay for the blood by himself.

His spatial ring was full to the brim with spirit stones and spirit jades, ones were given to him by Lilia, but he also got some on his own from the treasury of Riga, also he was planning to become either an alchemist or a rune master.

Both professions were known to produce money as if there was no tomorrow, and he has a personal teacher for both of them.

"I get the money to pamper my girls and also focus in learning from Eris and Mylene, two birds one stone", he thought.

Aster didn't miss the chance to fondle Sarina's ass a couple of timed before letting her go.

Lilia smiled seeing her son as happy as always, but she still wanted to confirm what was the inspiration he was getting, and why he didn't like it to the point where he didn't let himself be dragged on by it.

"Darling… what did think on back then?".

Aster sighed, besides the origin of his relationship with Rya the other thought that flashed through his mind was his reincarnation, in the future he had two confrontations to go through later on, curiously one was related to his mother and the other one to Rya.

"I guess that's my fault for loving these two", he thought.

Still, he didn't feel any obstacles on his cultivation path at least not on the energy side, so it was probable that his soul cultivation will require him to clear those two doubts sooner or later.

"Just a few things I need to discuss with you and Rya… later", he said in a low voice.

Lilia dragged her son into her embrace, back when they became lovers they made a vow of no secrets, with only one exception, to be honest at this point she totally didn't care about what Aster might be keeping for himself, but she didn't pressure him and instead waited until her son was ready to speak about it.

"It's okay darling, I know you had your reasons, I won't leave your side anyway, so we will talk about it when you are ready".

She then smiled.

"You once asked me why I didn't get rid of Isaac, in forgave his petty life in exchange for the blood he gifted me, but now that I know he joined hands with the sand mountain sect, I will personally get rid of him, not without him seeing you are my partner of course ?".

Aster chuckled.

"Since when you are so vindictive?".

Lilia pouted.

"Me? I remember a certain someone who wanted to dug out Isaac's eyeballs whenever he looked at me, so I had to give him a little "warning" again".

"Ahem… don't make me remember that, I was too immature back then".

Aster's love was too possessive, and being the first time he experienced such a thing, he overreacted a bit, after some time he understood, his girls were bound to attract attention, so now as long as they kept their distance or don't show unveiled malice, he didn't care.

That's why he didn't destroy the elder from the sand mountain sect when he looked at Lilia, and instead just blocked him from doing so.

Without them noticing the spaceship arrived at the end of the dimensional tunnel, they appeared right above the place where the portal in Zartia was, so no one noticed them.

From the window Aster saw that waiting next to the portal, Isaac, the patriarch of the Rein family and a slim tall old man were sitting.

"Another sea of knowledge, that must be the supreme elder of the sand mountain sect".

Lilia saw her son smirking and she knew someone was about to suffer.
