First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 145

Lucan leaned casually against it, idly tossing a small pebble in his palm, while Edgar stood nearby, calmly conversing with him.

Seeing Orion approach, Lucan straightened up and waved cheerfully. "Yo, Young Master! Done for today?"

Orion smiled back warmly, his footsteps quickening slightly. "Yeah. Let's head back home."

Edgar turned around, offering a respectful nod and gentle smile. "Good to see you, Young Master. Was your day fruitful?"

"Quite," Orion replied, climbing into the carriage with ease. "I've managed to recruit two new members into the club—Elias and Nyss Blackwell."

Lucan's eyes widened in astonishment as he jumped up onto the driver's seat. "Wait, you actually got Nyss to join your club? Isn't she… uh, how do I put this… cursed?"

Edgar calmly climbed into the carriage beside Orion, shaking his head at Lucan's exaggerated fear. "Don't believe every rumor you hear, Lucan. Besides, the Young Master is quite capable of judging character."

"Exactly," Orion agreed softly as the carriage smoothly began its journey back towards the Helstorm estate. "Rumors are often misleading. Nyss is perfectly fine—just quiet and reserved… I think."

Lucan's playful voice drifted down, teasingly skeptical. "Well, if you start having bad luck, Young Master, don't say I didn't warn you!"

Orion chuckled lightly, leaning back comfortably against the plush velvet seat as the carriage rattled gently along the stone-paved streets.

The soft clopping of horseshoes echoed rhythmically, blending harmoniously with the distant sounds of the bustling city outside.

[Maybe Lucan is scared Nyss will steal your attention away from him~! (^人^)]

Orion nearly laughed out loud at Lumi's playful jab. 'Well, he is quite the character, but I don't think he'll need to worry about that.'

They continued their quiet banter until the carriage finally rolled to a halt in front of the Helstorm family mansion, its imposing pathway illuminated warmly by lanterns lining the driveway.

Edgar stepped out first, holding the carriage door open politely. "Young Master, would you like to continue your sword practice today?"

"Yes, absolutely," Orion replied enthusiastically, stepping out of the carriage. The familiar sight of his home filled him with gentle relief. "Let's head to the training room."

Edgar nodded approvingly, quietly pleased by Orion's consistent dedication. Together, they walked briskly through the familiar halls of the mansion, heading straight toward the spacious training hall nestled deep within the estate.

Upon entering, Orion immediately drew Realm Guardian, the obsidian blade gleaming darkly under the mana-infused lanterns. Edgar calmly took a practice sword from the nearby rack, and without unnecessary words, they began their spar.

The room echoed with rhythmic clashes of steel, punctuated by Edgar's calm instructions. Orion's movements were fluid, gradually more precise and confident with each strike and parry.

Hours passed seamlessly in intense, focused training until finally Edgar raised his hand, signaling the end of their session.

"Impressive progress, Young Master," Edgar praised, breathing calmly. "You're improving with Realm Guardian quicker than expected."

"Thanks, Uncle Edgar," Orion said gratefully, wiping sweat from his brow. "Realm Guardian just fits me perfectly, maybe that's the reason. And even more so your guidance—without it, I would still be stuck at the basics."

Edgar humbly shook his head, gently smiling. "Talent can only bloom when nurtured. Rest well now, Young Master."

Orion nodded, sheathing Realm Guardian carefully before leaving the hall, muscles pleasantly tired yet invigorated from the intense workout.

As soon as Orion stepped into his room, Rina and Fiora quickly appeared, smiling warmly.

"Master, let's get you cleaned up," Rina said cheerfully, already preparing the bath.

Fiora quietly nodded, a gentle blush painting her cheeks as she followed along, carefully assisting Orion.

The soothing warmth of the bath melted away any lingering fatigue from his training, leaving him thoroughly relaxed and refreshed.
