First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 35

Chapter 35: Academy

Eldric and Selene paused their argument, turning to look at Orion with curious gazes. "Oh? Tell us, what elements did you decide on?"

Eldric calmed down and sat back on his chair. Selene also sat beside him. They looked at Orion, wondering what choice he would make.

Orion calmly said, "I will learn Fire, Thunder, Wind..."

Selene and Eldric leaned forward slightly, wanting to curse him for stretching out the last part.

"...Wood and Light."

"Huh?"

"Eh?"

Both Selene and Eldric showed surprised expressions.

"Five elements? Are you sure about that, lad?" Eldric asked, wondering if he had thought it through.

Selene took a deep breath. "If he has said it, then that means he already considered it. And learning the five elements should be doable with his talent. He will just have to work hard."

Orion nodded his head, "Yes, but that’s not something I can’t do. I will not back down from a little hard work."

The room descended into silence as the discussion nearly came to an end. Eldric and Selene had asked the most pressing questions they had.

And Orion might not have been able to satisfy their curiosity completely, but he at least handled the situation well.

"Ah yeah, you can’t just go around flexing five elements. That will attract too much attention," Eldric suddenly said.

Selene agreed with him, "Yes, it would be better for you to choose two elements to show in public."

"That’s a given. I’m not idiotic enough to go around flexing my multi-elemental affinity without any power to save myself. I’ll use Fire and Light in front of others. That will make me stand out while also letting others see me in a favorable light." Orion agreed with them and reasoned for his selection.

Selene and Eldric looked at each other with gratified smiles, their hearts holding a small bit of pride for having such an outstanding grandson, who was not only absurdly talented but also smart enough to hide that talent.

"Alright then, enough discussion for today. Let’s go out in the garden to talk more. It’s still morning, so it would be better for my old bones to get some fresh air." Selene giggled and stood up.

Orion laughed at her words, "What are you saying, Grandma? If we stand shoulder to shoulder, then others might mistake you for my sister."

"Oh, you sweet talker—" Selene lightly smiled, but her words were interrupted by Eldric’s boisterous laughter.

"HAHahaHA, this old hag??" He laughed while walking out of the room.

Selene’s hand twitched as she took out her staff. "You were saying something, old bastard?" Fiery mana began gathering around her, increasing the temperature of the entire mansion.

Eldric’s laughter paused as he slowly turned around, "Cough, quickly put away your staff, you are making Orion uncomfortable."

Selene’s expression changed as she quickly put away her staff. The temperature drastically changed and returned to normal. She turned around to see Orion standing there calmly, looking at her curiously.

Something clicked in her mind as she quickly turned around, "THAT OLD BASTARD!!" Only to find that Eldric had run away toward the garden.

"I thought you ditched us, lad." Eldric smiled and gestured for him to sit at the table. _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}
