First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127: Return

The next morning, the sun rose high as the sunlight came directly on his face through the window’s curtains.

"Mmm..." Stirring slightly, he slowly woke up. Sitting up straight, he stretched his arms above his head.

[Good morning, Master! You woke up earlier than yesterday.]

’...Mmm yeah, might be my body adapting to my sleep schedule.’ He stood up and went to the washroom before Rina and Fiora came for the daily bath.

They were still amazed by the amount of parchments on the ground—which seemed to have only increased from yesterday.

Afterwards, he went to visit Seraph and talked with her as usual, giving her some breakfast.

After a while, he stood up and bid her farewell before heading toward the dining room.

[Will you create your Affinity Rune today, Master?]

Orion rubbed his chin with a thoughtful expression. ’I’m still undecided about that. I still need to practice the mana circuits and runic inscription that would be required for the Affinity Rune.’

[Well, it’s only been two days, Master! No need to rush. Take your time. (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ]

He chuckled and nodded before soon reaching the dining hall. Opening the door, he saw that Eldric was seated in his usual spot.

’Still not here, huh.’ Shaking his head slightly in disappointment, he entered inside.

"Good morning, Grandpa."

"Haha, good morning, lad. You look lively today, what happened?" Eldric greeted and laughingly asked.

He came forward and took his seat before rubbing the back of his head and proudly saying, "Haha, nothing much, I just learned all the runes for my Affinity Rune yesterday."

Eldric raised an eyebrow. "Huh? Already? Hasn’t it been like two days since you got the book?"

Orion proudly looked at him and nodded. "Yes, and I learned all the runes that I decided upon."

"Oh?" Eldric curiously looked at him and asked, "So, how many runes did you decide on? Seven?"

"Haha," Orion laughed at his estimate. "Don’t underestimate me, Grandpa. I decided to make my rune with nine Primary Runes."

Eldric’s eyes widened in shock. "Huh? Brat, don’t bite off more than you can chew. I haven’t heard of anyone creating their Affinity Rune with more than eight runes."

"See? Someone has already formed eight runes, so the least I can do is nine, right?" Orion shook his head and said. He had already expected that someone might have formed eight runes, since the top students in the academy could already form seven.

Eldric stroked his beard. "Hmm, with your talent, it’s not inconceivable that you will do it. So when will you form your Affinity Rune?"

"Mm, I thought of forming it today, but I need to practice the mana circuits and runic inscription for the rune. Should I do it in the evening?" he asked.

Eldric shook his head. "No, don’t take the risk. Spend the entire day practicing and try different ways—like increasing the flow of mana or decreasing it. Also, try to form the entire Affinity Rune on parchment. Even if it will be useless outside the Sea of Consciousness, it is good for practice."

"Alright," Orion nodded in understanding. "I’ll do that then. Anyway, enough about that—did Grandma send back any news?"

Eldric shook his head. "No news as of yet. That old hag is probably out gath—"

"Who are you calling an old hag, you damn old bastard!"
